13 Installation

Each ICM supplied consists of the following:

•

ICM

•

Calibration certificate

•

LPA-View CD ROM, software package

•

Pre-wired cable

Optional Equipment:

•

Circular connector pre-wired with 3m cable

•

ICM-RDU Remote display unit

•

500 µm coarse screen filter

•

ICM-FC1 Flow Control Valve

•

ICM-USBi USB adaptor with pre-wired ICM cable

13.1 Installation Procedure

•

Decide on tapping points in hydraulic circuit.

•

Locate the unit mechanically and bolt to desired location using fixing holes pro-

vided. The ICM must be in a vertical orientation, with the oil flowing upwards

through it.

•

Wire back to junction box.

•

Check flow in acceptable range. There needs to be a differential pressure placed

across the ICM, such that a flow of fluid is generated within the range of the

unit.

•

If there is no suitable differential pressure available, then a flow controller will

be needed. One solution is the ICM-FC1 pressure compensated flow control

valve. This limits the flow to around 200ml/minute for differential pressures up

to 400 bar. This should be fitted to the drain side of the ICM (the top fitting).

•

Fix mechanically.
