Design and Installation
Caution
【
Design
】
1. Design the system with operating conditions, including operating pressure, operating temperature,
operating fluid, and operating environment appropriate for safe operation.
2. Install the mist separator and micro-mist separator in a place where pulsation seldom occurs.
3.
Prevent back pressure and backflow from occurring.
The element may be damaged by back pressure and backflow.
4.
Prevent the propagation of an excess moment load and vibration from the piping side.
5.
If a relief function of the hydraulic filter which controls the pressure is not used in the hydraulic
circuit, design a circuit safe for the customer’s system.
6.
Provide sufficient space for maintenance.
[Mounting]
1. Mount the product vertically so that the cover faces upwards.
If the product is mounted horizontally, foreign matters will accumulate on the element and the
product will be damaged by the load.
【
Piping
】
1.
Connect it with IN and OUT ports in proper location.
It does not work with the connection reversed.
2. Connect the valves or fittings suited to the operating conditions by checking the size of each
connection port.
During connection work, make sure that powder from the piping screws or seal material does not
get into the interior of the piping.
Prior to operating, flush the piping line and check for abnormalities, such as fluid leakage.
3.
Firmly fix the piping to the mounting frame using a saddle, etc., to avoid vibration or force caused
by the weight.
4.
During element replacement, it is necessary to release fluid from the vessel.
Be sure to connect the pipe so that fluid releasing work can be absolutely performed.
5.
Make sure that air releasing work can be absolutely performed.
If the pump is in a high position, idling sometimes occurs during re-start.
Take measures such as releasing the air in a high position, etc.
[
Low temperature operation
]
The hydraulic fluid used becomes high viscosity when the temperature is low during the winter, etc.,
and the differential pressure indicator or the switch may activate. If this occurs, wait until the oil
temperature rises by a warm-up operation, and confirm if the differential pressure indicator and switch
can be reset, then start the operation. (20
o
C or more is the guide.) In the case of the differential
pressure indication switch, design the system in combination with the temperature sensor, so that the
output signal is not accepted until the oil temperature reaches the set value or more.
