9.1.2 Removal of the Laminated-Paper Protective Tube
After removal of the intake flange , the protective tube can be taken out
upward. Refix the flange after insertion of a new protective tube.
9.2 Regular Inspections
To guarantee safe operation, it is important to check the metal separator’s function
regularly.
The metal separator must be checked at least once per week, after
every maintenance stop and every time, when any kind of job was performed
at the metal separator.
Any failure of the metal separator’s function must be
eliminated immediately, and machines or products protected by the metal separator
have to be taken out of operation.
It is advisable to test the MESEP® VA digital regularly using a specific metal test
body and logging the test results. We recommend to abtain suitable metal test
bullets from Pulsotronic. These test bullets are encasted in plastic cubes, and the
bullet sized is engraved. Test bodies are available for every type of metal separator.
The tests should be performed according to a test schedule.
The laminated-paper protective tube is arranged underneath
the unit’s flange and protects the ring coil from mechanical
damages. Regular checks, particularly in case of abrasive bulk
materials, must be performed.
