MP Filtri BS110, Operator'S Manual

Page: 24 / 36

For use with Water Based/Off-shore Fluid sampling:
1. Fill the container with 50 ml Iso-propyl alcohol, replace the cap, shake vigorously and drain to a waste container.
2. Fill to 50% of the container volume with 0.4 μm filtered De-ionised water. Replace cap, shake vigorously and drain to a waste
container.
3. Fill to 50% of the container volume with 0.4 μm filtered De-ionised water. Replace cap, shake vigorously and drain to a waste
container.
4. Loosely replace the cap and do not remove until you are ready to take your next sample. (This reduces the risk of any air-borne
particles entering the container.)
5. Once complete, the fluid sample should be disposed of correctly and responsibly in line with local and international regulations.
5.1.4 Fluid Sampling/ Hand Pump
We always recommend using our hand pump, clean bottle and hose method which limits ingress of contamination. Using the hand
pump means that the sample hose can be cleaned or replaced between samples, and the bottle always remains isolated from the
surrounding environment.
Hand pump and hose are available as spares via MP Filtri. Please note, this is only currently available for 100 ml or 200 ml size
bottles.
5.2. General Operation
Optional Equipment:
Course Screen Filter to protect the contamination monitoring product from fluids that have particularly high contamination that
could block the flow path
5.2.1 Physical Checks
• Oil leaks on and around the unit
• Fatigue in hoses that might then leak when under system pressure
• There is no damage to any of the components
• All accessories are present and correct
• The operator has read through the manual
5.2.2 Flushing and Flushing Fluids
Prior to performing a test on the contamination monitoring product with a bottle sampler both units should be flushed in series with
a suitable fluid to remove any traces of previous samples.
For guidance on flushing fluids see the document on the USB stick supplied with the contamination monitoring product.
DO NOT clean the Bottle Sampler with Acetone or similar solvents that are not compatible with the seals.
The recommended cleaning fluid for internal flushing is listed on the website: www.mpfiltri.co.uk
