DESCRIPTION OF THE SERVICE MEASURING
KIT
3.1 General
The service measuring kit consists of a measurement block that is equipped
with a Patrick particle monitor, HySense
®
CV 100 viscosity sensor, and
HySense
®
CM 100 humidity sensor. These instruments can also be read out
separately. Furthermore, the instrument is also equipped with a power pack,
CAN data cable, and three connection lines.
In connection with the HYDROTECHNIK MultiSystem 5060Plus,
MultiSystem5070 or MultiSystem4070 measurement instrument, the CX 197
handles the diagnosis and monitoring of changes to the hydraulic and
lubrication media. Measurements can be made periodically on systems or
machines and stored in a measurement value database for the appropriate
metering point. Through analysis of the data, it is possible to make an
evaluation in which the oil change, deviation from target values, and exceeding
of limit values are determined.
Furthermore, it is possible to check whether the correct viscosity class is used,
the particle contamination is becoming critical or if a high humidity content is
threatening the formation of free water. This way, looming damage can be
detected at an early stage or avoided completely. This offers the opportunity to
avoid severe machine faults and consequential damages by taking suitable
measures and to extend maintenance and oil change intervals. With the
monitoring of the lubrication medium, oil changes and fill-ups can be detected
and thus system maintenance can be performed and the use of the prescribed
lubricant quality documented.
The CX 197 records the following physical oil variables:
•
Temperature
•
Viscosity
•
Relative humidity
•
Particle contamination
•
Relative permittivity
•
Conductivity
Since the viscosity and relative permittivity depend heavily on the temperature,
these variables are converted to a fixed reference temperature of 40°C. For the
analysis of a system, the metering point is created in the measurement
instrument and an oil type is assigned from the oil database.
