4.1.3 Setting the flow
Since the Patrick particle monitor requires a constant flow between 50 and 400
ml/min, attention should be paid to the appropriate flow. It can be checked
directly after current is connected to the Patrick. For this, use the arrow key to
go into the menu and select:
SENSORPARAM. / SET FLOW.
The bar diagram reflects the flow between 50 and 400 ml/min.
In case of heavily soiled oil:
If larger particles (> 125µm) go through the CX 197, they can stop up the sieve
installed in front of the current regulation valve. Normally the sieve protects the
downstream current regulation valve that has a small nozzle.
If it happens that there is no sufficient flow despite the pressure applied, the CX
197 can be opened and the current regulation valve unscrewed. This way, it is
possible to clean the soiled parts.
4.2 Ventilating the service measuring kit
Before the first measurements can be made, the CX 197 must be ventilated.
Proceed as follows:
•
Connect the CX 197 as described in Chapter 4.1. The flow should be at
least 50 ml/min.
•
Now connect the MINIMESS
®
test point between particle monitor and
moisture sensor to the third MINIMESS
®
hose line.
•
During ventilation, move the CX 197 a little in order to convey all the air out
of the CX 197.
Caution
Danger of contamination with other oil
Since the CX 197 could still be filled with incompatible oil from the last
measurement, empty or flush the CX 197 with at least 200 ml of oil.
