Testing the air intake
To test the air inlet an air flow gauge is used
To perform the test, place the air flow gauge in place of the water
flow gauge.
Block the water inlet to allow air flow through the air inlet alone.
Open the vacuum valve and register the air intake measured.
o
Verify that the air intake measured is in the range of
10 ± 1
liters per minute.
7.3.1.1.3 The water test procedure
Preparing the testing solution
Prepare the test solution as follows:
Measure a quantity of 13-20 liter of water for the
test solution. Use lukewarm water at temperature as
close as possible to the ambient temperature.
Calculate amount of salt and dissolve 4.5 grams of
table salt in each liter of water . Stir carefully to
ensure that all salt is dissolved.
Measure the conductivity of the solution using a
conductivity meter (see picture on the right). The
target is to achieve conductivity between 10 and 12
Mili-Siemens. If required, add water or salt to reach
the desired conductivity.
Testing procedure
The basic steps of the water test
o
Produce 20 kg of testing solution in a pail.
o
Using the sucking pipe connected to the milk meter, run testing solution through the
unit and into the milking bucket until the display shows 12 ± 0.5 kg.
o
Stop the vacuum using the manual valve and press the “removal” button of the milk -
meter.
o
Wait until the milk-meter valve opens to release the water accumulated during the
last flow.
o
The collected quantity of test solution should now be weighed and recorded against
the figure shown on the display of the milk meter.
