Description of the FCU
The FluidControl Unit FCU can determine the solid particle contamination of
mineral oils on a continuous basis.
With the FCU, it is possible to record, save and display the Cleanliness Class
completely automatically during continuous operation in accordance with
NAS 1638 and/or SAEAS4059 or ISO 4406.
The measured values can be printed out online in the form of either tables or
graphs by means of the built-in dot-matrix printer or sent via serial interface
to a PC or a central display unit for visualization purposes there.
Filter units can for example be actuated via relay outputs.
For input and output functions, the FCU possesses a keyboard, an LCD
(Liquid Crystal Display), a dot-matrix printer, control relay outputs and a serial
data interface.
The FCU possesses a measurement port 1604 as an input for connection
with the hydraulic unit, as well as a DN 7 plug nipple as a return flow outlet.
A flow rate control valve is available for setting the measurement flow rate.
This is protected against larger particle contamination by an upstream filter.
Media from a depressurized reservoir can be inspected using the integrated
pump with the enclosed suction hoses (DN8).
The FCU has a rechargeable battery for approx. 5 hours of operation
independent of the mains network.
The FCU has a measured value memory for up to 3000 measured values,
which are stored in the form of logs (maximum of 100).
