Filtromat – OF5 C

 

4.4 

Switching on the OF5 C 

Use the main switch of the unit to switch on and off. 

First, however, you must check the direction of rotation. To do this, start the motor 
by switching it on for a short time (jog mode). An arrow on the fan cover shows the 
direction of rotation: when looking at the fan wheel it must be turning in a clockwise 
direction. If the direction of rotation needs to be changed, this can be done via the 
phase inverter in the connection plug. The plug does not need to be dismantled to 
do this. 

The hoses (suction hose = thicker transparent hose, pressure hose = thinner one) 
are immersed into the tank of the hydraulic system to be cleaned. 

Make sure that the distance between the immersed hoses is as large as possible. 
Set the OF5 C main switch at the control cabinet to position "I" and press the 
OK/Start key of the FCU.

OF5 C in operation 

After switching on the motor, check the suction action via the transparent suction 
hose. It is not normally necessary to vent the filter housing because of the special 
element locating spigot.  

During operation, monitor the clogging indicator and the operating pressure.  

When the visual clogging indicator responds, the filter element must be changed as 
soon as possible.   

Do not leave the unit unattended during operation.   

Turn the flow rate control at the front of the FCU clockwise until it stops. When the 
filter unit is switched on, this sets an immediate flush of the measured section. 

After a brief flush, set a measured flow rate between 50 and 150 ml.
