5. Working and Testing

The user friendly Laser CM20 is easy to operate. Once connected to the system, either via the dedicated Inline Sensor or Single Point Sampler (see section 8 for more details), and after checking the flow.

Simply turn the unit on by pressing the button.

And turn the valve.

After just two minutes, the ISO or NAS code will automatically be displayed.

To obtain a printout of the result simply press the PRINT button once on the handset.

The printer will print the time, date and test number with ISO or NAS code and particle count.

The handset interface allows the user to perform various functions with the added “Hot Key” facility such as: • Entering a specific 32 character Serial Identification or Test Data against each test number. • Retrieving previously run test results, by ID or test number, in the memory. • Printing graphs. • Setting Level Alarm Limits, to switch on external devices, whenever the levels are exceeded.

• Running continuous tests automatically. • Changing the contrast, or turning on the backlight on the handset.

The full instructions on these functions can be found in the user manual, supplied with the product.

6.4 Reading Water

As with all light obscuration particle counters, the Laser CM20 sees water as contamination. The example below shows a typical ISO result where water is present.

The NAS equivalent clearly shows the water content.

The particle readings visually appear as a block of numbers rather than the usual triangular shape.

6.5 Repeatability and Accuracy

The two printout examples below have been carried out 3 minutes apart using a Universal Bottle Sampler.

As can be seen, the results confirm that the Laser CM20 gives highly repeatable results across the complete particle ranges.

In the next three examples, three tests have been carried out in quick succession.

The results clearly show the system cleaning up as test on test the results become lower across all the micron ranges.

The Laser CM20 can see a clean system.

The low readings indicate a cleanersystem where typically there is a 3 micronfiltration, for example, with a servo valvesystem.

The Laser CM20 can read dirty to clean.

The tests above were taken from a dirty system and then immediately connected to a clean system. Due to the unique design of the Laser CM20, there will be no cross contamination from either different or dirty samples.

7 How the Laser CM20 Works

On-line optical particle counting is a major breakthrough in the field of scheduled oil analysis and can be used to detect in excess of 80% of potential fluid system failure. To achieve this LCM20 operation follows a well proven technique in on-line optical scanning but its greatly enhanced design allows monitoring at a much higher level of concentration – 310 milligrams per litre of AC Fine Test Dust.

7.1 The Test Procedure - Utilising the Laser CM20

The oil sample is drawn through a unique optical window at a constant flow rate, with shadows of each particle being projected onto a masked photodiode. Masking of the photodiode enables greater resolution and particle separation to be achieved (Fig. 1). The ratio of light blockage on the masked photodiode signal relates to the particle width, whilst a measurement of particle length is obtained from the length of time the particle takes to pass over the unmasked area (Fig. 2). The velocity of the fluid-born particulate is accurately controlled by the syringe pump. Integration of light blockage and time values enable particles to be sized and counted by area (Fig. 3), relative to ACFTD contaminant in sizes of >2µ, >5µ, >15µ, >25µ, >50µ and >100µ.

7.2 How the Laser CM works.

The differential pressure created between the high pressure (P1) and low pressure (P2) ports of the diagnostic sensor ensure that within a short time of it being connected to the LCM20 monitor it is automatically flushed, guaranteeing a representative oil sample within the LCM20. On-line sampling can then be carried out whilst the machine is operating at its normal flow, pressure and temperature, ensuring that TRULY REPRESENTATIVE OIL SAMPLES are analysed.

7.3 On-Line Monitoring for Oil Cleanliness Standards

There are many reasons why contamination level monitoring should be carried out on-line and all are associated with achieving an oil sample that is truly representative of the condition of the oil whilst the machine or system is in operation. Major influences on true representative oil samples are:

• Actual sampling procedure • Cleanliness standards of sample bottle • Static sampling rather than dynamic, as on-line • Changes in physical state of oil – due to time delays • Particle suspension in fluid • Possible aeration of sample • Sample dilution errors

SAMPLING PROCEDURE The most significant error in traditional oil analysis derives from the actual way in which the oil sample is collected. Even though the oil sample may have been taken from a dynamic part of the system, whilst the machine is running, the sample valve or fitting from which the samples are collected are often added to the system as an after thought and consequently are not fitted to representative parts of the circuit. Often sample valve flushing procedures are inadequate or are simply not adhered to, resulting in “dead spots” of oil, containing large accumulations of contaminant, being washed straight into the sample container.

With diagnostic sensors in-line, monitoring of oil cleanliness standards is simple and effective, simply moving the LCM20 particle analyser from one Parker System 20 sensor to the next. True on-line analysis will remove the risk of contaminant accumulation being washed straight into the sample container, by ensuring monitoring is carried out from dynamic parts of the system, which automatically flush the sampling device. Parker System 20 in-line diagnostic sensors provide the ideal interface point for connection of the on-line LCM20. Manufacturers in the automotive industry for example, fit in-line diagnostic sensors to every machine tool hydraulic pump outlet for the express purpose of on-line monitoring.

8 ISO Standards – Understanding MTD

ACFTD (Air Cleaner Fine Test Dust) was formatted in the 1960’s, but is no longer being produced. The obsolescence of this dust has led to the adoption of a new dust MTD. MTD (Medium Test Dust) having a particle size distribution close to ACFTD was selected as a replacement. However, MTD produced results somewhat different to ACFTD, so the NIST (National Institute of Standards & Technology) undertook a project to certify the particle size distribution of ISO MTD. The result was particle sizes below 10µm were greater than previously measured. Particles sizes reported based on NIST would be represented as µm (c), with “c” referring to “certified”. Therefore the CM20 reported sizes are as follows:

ACFTD 2µ 5µ 15µ 25µ 50µ 100µ

MTD offers true traceability, improved particle size accuracy and better batch-to-batch reproduction.

MTD 4µ ( c ) 6µ ( c ) 14µ ( c ) 21µ ( c ) 38µ ( c ) 70µ (c )

8.1 ISO 11171

Many people have begun to ask the question, “Does the Laser CM20 conform to ISO 11171?”. ISO 11171 is a standard that has been developed for Automatic Particle Counters (APC) that is fixed in the system at one point only. The LCM20 is considered to be a "Portable Contamination Monitor". This standard, therefore, does not cover our products. A full calibration to ISO 11171, which is via bottle sampling using 2 special traceable bottles of test dust oil (SRM 2806 @ $691, not including labour), takes many hours of work, many calculations and must meet 5 annexes. 1. Flow rate limits, 2. Coincidence errors, 3. Resolution, 4. Accuracy of the sensor 5. Volume accuracy of the sample. As soon as one of these annexes changes, the calibration is void. These are neither practical nor affordable for our production units. The requirements we can meet are ISO 4406:1999, which is the ability to size, count and report 4 micron(c), 6 micron(c), and 14 micron(c) particles using Medium Test Dust (MTD). We also have traceability to ISO 11171, via ISO:11943 - ("Hydraulic fluid power - on-line liquid automatic particle-counting systems - Methods of calibration and validation”), as our Master units were calibrated to a system, which was fully compliant with the 5 annexes above.

8.2 The importance of Contamination Codes. The international Standard for defining the cleanliness of hydraulic or lubricating fluids is ISO4406. The standard clearly defines progressive numerical levels of particulate on a cumulative basis. Such data must be considered when designing a system or selecting components. Determining an acceptable contamination level for a system will depend upon the selected components’ sensitivity, as well as the performance and positioning of the filtration equipment. By emphasising the importance of system cleanliness, in terms of analysis and control to both manufacturer and user, a cost-effective programme of contamination control and equipment maintenance can be achieved. What is an ISO number? An ISO contamination number provides a band of contamination particle quantities greater than 5 micron and greater than 15 micron per millilitre of fluid. (for example, ISO code 18/13 indicates that there are between 130,000 and 250,000 particles larger than 5 micron and between 4,000 and 8,000 particles larger than 15 micron per 100 ml of fluid. Confirming/Monitoring cleanliness of fluid Many of the problems of system/component failure associated with the presence of contamination could be eradicated by cleanliness level monitoring. By monitoring the cleanliness level of a system in a controlled and traceable maintenance programme, the user is able to ensure that any deviation from the requisite parameters are detected early and acted upon to prevent further deterioration. 8.3 Sources of Contamination Solid contaminants will be encountered as a result of four main sources. Knowledge concerning their basic characteristics is important when considering the design and positioning of filter equipment. New Oil Contamination Stored oil, in drums or tanks will inevitably contain solid contaminants. Most drum oil is only filtered to 50 micron before being despatched. Drums will contribute contaminants to the oil if stored incorrectly. Corrosion may occur if condensate water is allowed to accumulate, thus leading to oxide particulate generation. Drums left open, or tanks with ineffective vent filters, will allow atmospheric contamination to be ingressed. Using a Parker Portable Filtration Package will ensure that solid contaminant is removed whilst transferring fluid, before it can enter the system and ultimately damage components. Built in contamination Even the cleanest assembly shop will inevitably build in some contaminant during the production procedure. Contaminants such as metal, rubber (hoses etc.), pipe sealant and fibres will be evident. In this respect the Parker Contamination Monitor, LCM20, is an invaluable aid in the monitoring of cleanliness levels during the flushing stage of any assembly operation, be it component or system.

Ingressed contamination Atmospheric contamination particularly in a dirty environment can best reduced by having effective reservoir breathers. For example, specifying a Parker Filler Breather Filter will ensure that the risk of surrounding contamination ingressing through the reservoir vent port will be greatly reduced. Contaminant is also ingressed through normal servicing/routine maintenance operations. In fact, any action that entails direct con tact between the system fluid and the environmental will allow contaminant to be ingressed. Generated contamination If potentially harmful contaminant is not quickly removed from a system, it will cause a greater and greater accumulation of solids through a cycle of regeneration. As particles impact upon surfaces, they gradually cause microscopic stress cracks which propagate until a fracture occurs, generating contaminant. This leads to damage to critical tolerances between fine machined surfaces and damaging modifications to clearances. Starting with a clean system and keeping it clean with Parker suction and return line filters such as the Multiflow tank mounted filter with built-in condition indicator is the best way to keep the wheels turning! 8.4 Knowing the System Factors such as component load, pressure, critical clearances and others must be considered when analysing why components fail due to contamination. Also confirming which type of contaminant induced failure has been the cause, eg: catastrophic, intermittent or degradation failure. Knowing the system also means knowing the best way to sample the fluid as the first step to checking and establishing acceptable and achievable contamination targets. The principal sampling methods can be defined as:- Bottle Sampling Taken when the system is in operation it is representative of system conditions at that moment of time and thus a subject to system factors, ie. location, fluid viscosity, point in duty cycle etc. For purposes of accuracy and consistency it is important to maintain a regime of repeated sampling at similar conditions and intervals. As a sampling technique, the fluid is collected into a sample bottle for remote analysis at a designated laboratory. This provides the potential for error as well as time delay in receiving results. On-line Sampling The most preferred method of obtaining data on cleanliness levels. By sampling on-line error potentials associated with bottle analysis are effectively removed. It allows for analysis to be rapidly conducted at virtually any time and at a broad range of conditions, duty and criticality. The LCM20 coupled with the System 20 In Line Sensor provides a most effective combination of equipment to identify cleanliness levels. The LCM20 can also be connected to a single pressure point by using the Parker Single Point Sampler. 8.5 Setting the Targets The first move in establishing correct cleanliness levels is to confirm how clean the system must be. Critical components within the system must be identified and ISO codes established for each one from manufacturers specifications. The target System Cleanliness Level is the lowest ISO code required of all the critical components in the system.

8.6 Achieving the targets The most important factors to consider are: the level of system cleanliness required by the critical components to ensure minimal damaging effect. The efficiency of the filtration equipment applied. The positioning of the filtration equipment. The nature and severity of duty and operating environment. Correct filter specification is essential Parker filters are designed and performance tested to ISO4572 (Multipass Filter Performance Test method) to enable efficient contamination control and assist in maintenance of cleanliness levels. As a guide, the following chart indicates suggest acceptable contamination levels in various types of system.

9.1 Product Specifications: Fluid Condition Monitoring Laser “Classic” The Classic LCM20 is based on the standard build of the Laser CM20, it has kept the technology that has made the Laser CM20 one of the most reliable and popular particle counters available, but at a greatly reduced price.

It is supplied with a user manual (with both the ACFTD and MTD versions) on CD, empty battery pack and calibration certificate only, in a cardboard box. The internaI deluxe features have been removed, such as User ID, Automatic Testing, Data Retrieval via the handset, Alarm Level Settings, the Barcode Pen and Graph Printing. Other features, such as the power supply, the screwdriver, batteries and Datum are also not included. NOTE: The unit will still hold the standard 300 tests in the memory and will still download to datum if you already have the program on your computer. The Calibration process is exactly the same.

Universal Bottle Sampler Parker’s UBS provides the dynamic link to all portable particle/water counters. The UBS off-line, already the proven, efficient answer to oil bottle sampling via a CM monitor has been upgraded with the incorporation of microprocessor technology to recognise and adjust to the connecting monitor including the LaserCM and Water in Oil Monitor.

The oil sampler is drawn into the UBS Offline where it is secured, free from further contamination, in a bottle together with a clean waste bottle by a peristaltic, self-priming pump. Simple operation and efficient testing are assured once the UBS Off-line is connected to any of the CM monitors, and powered up using it’s own power source. The oil sample requires agitation and de-gassing before carrying out the contamination test. Vacuum chamber and pump options are available. Typical Applications include: • Batch Sampling • Aircraft Rig Certification • Oil Research • Laboratory testing • Transfer Line Monitoring

Single Point Sampler

The lightweight Single Point Sampler has been developed to give the Monitor user greater flexibility. Designed with an easy to use fingertip operated control valve the Single Point Sampler enables compensated flow systems to be tested for contamination where flow ranges are outside System 20 sensor specifications or where pipe diameters do not allow System 20 sensors to be installed. The Single Point Sampler fits onto the downstream P2 side of the Monitor, connecting via a self-sealing quick connection Minimess coupling. The Single Point Sampler enables the user to adjust the flow rate through the Monitor and once set, a pressure-compensated flow control system automatically compensates for pressure changes and maintains its setting even as the workload changes.

• Fingertip operated control valve design. • Pressure compensated enabling operation up to 420 Bar (6,000PSI). • Small and compact design. • Supplied with accessories kit. • No change to set flow rate, between upper and lower limits, within a 100 bar inline pressure change. System 20 Inline dynamic connection into a system.

Parker has developed 3 industrial System 20 sensors for simultaneous measurement of flow, pressure and temperature, using hand-held monitors.

Covering a wide range of flow rates, fluid types and applications, System 20 sensors are designed to be used with both types of System 20 Monitors, all Contamination Monitors and the Water in Oil Monitor. Specially developed System 20 sensors are available for use with the ’Aggressive Fluids‘ contamination monitor.

• An operator can monitor a system without having to shut it down first. • Predictive maintenance by connecting to an analogue monitor. • System 20 Analogue Monitors are designed to connect directly to a System 20 Inline Sensor.

10 Service and Recalibration

With ever growing competition for on-line particle counting, one of the major selling points of the Laser CM20 and other peripherals is the option of a dedicated Service Centre in the Country of sale, offering full service and re-calibration. Ask anyone in places such as America, Brazil, India, Singapore and Japan, not to mention France and most recently Norway and they will all tell you of many occasions where a sale has swung their way because they have had fully trained engineers, who speak their language and can help in technical matters quickly and confidently. Obviously, we still have many parts of the world, not covered by these Service Centres, which is why we have our own service department at the CMC, dealing with all UK and worldwide users.

11 Questions and Answers

What is the difference between on-line and bottle sampling? On-line monitoring is taking the instrument to the system while bottle sampling is taking the sample from the system to the instrument in a laboratory. On-line monitoring gives a more representative result of the system, due to the fact that fluid is circulating while the test is being taken. In the bottle sample a small portion of the fluid is drawn out of the system for analysis. The analysis is based on a small volume of fluid out of a typically large volume reservoir. Which method is better, on-line or bottle sampling? While bottle sampling allows the user to get a more complete analysis of the fluid, the drawback is the time to receive the results. The system is still operating while you wait for the result, so acting upon the result is fruitless. On-line monitoring allows the user to get the limited analysis in a few minutes and if the result is bad a re-sample can be taken right away. If it still shows poor results then an action can be taken right away. I already send samples to a lab, why should I buy a particle counter? Customers I’ve spoken to that send samples out routinely find a low percentage that are bad. Therefore, a significant saving can be realised if only those samples that fail the initial on-line analysis be sent to the lab for further analysis. When you sit down and calculate the cost of unnecessary lab samples your return on investment can be a matter of months, not to mention the speed of predicting the failure before it occurs. Will my existing bottle sample results match the LCM20 results? No, they probably will not. The reason for it is that the variables in the method of sampling are different. With a bottle you have two inherent problems, one is in extracting the sample from the system. Has it been done the same way, has the bottle been contaminated prior to filling the bottle, plus the cleanliness of the bottle before a sample is added. The second one is at the other end. Did the lab handle the sample correctly? Did they cross contaminate your sample with another? All these variables have been introduced into the bottle results. With the LCM20 the only variable is in the hook-up to the system. The LCM20 will flush its own line before the beginning of the test. Generally, the on-line results will be 1 or 2 ISO codes lower than the bottle because of all the variability of the bottle. How much pressure do I need to take a sample? The LCM20 needs a minimum of 5 psi differential and 30 psi line pressure. This will allow the oil to flow out and back into the system. Pressure only is needed for a single point sampling, but flow is needed for sensor applications. Does water in the oil affect the LCM20? Yes, water will affect the LCM20 particle count. The water will appear as large particles on the printout. This happens because the water has a lower viscosity than the oil and it will get into the view volume of the sensor and the detector will think it’s a large particle. Most people think this is a fault of the LCM20, but all light blockage instruments have the same problem, besides water is a contaminate and should be counted.

Does the LCM20 count air bubbles? Yes, air bubbles will be counted as particles in the LCM20. Again, if the system has air, it is considered a contaminate and should be accounted for. Generally no problems because in high pressure systems air is not that likely to be present in bubbles big enough to count.

Questions and Answers Continued….. What kinds of fluids can I run through the LCM20? The standard LCM20 is compatible with all petroleum and synthetic oils. Some phosphate esters can be run, but Skydrol cannot. Parker offers a Skydrol version of the LCM20 for this. What fluid temperature will the LCM20 handle? The LCM20 can handle oils as hot as 93°C. What viscosity of oil can I run through the LCM20? Viscosity’s up to 100 centistokes with no assistance can flow through the LCM20. With the use of a single point sampler and the trace-heating element, we can run viscosity of 800 centistokes. Where is the best place to take a sample in a system? The most asked question of all. Our recommendation is as close to the output of the pump. It provides the highest pressure and flow conditions, plus the oil at that position is indicative of the reservoir’s oil condition. A lot of people like to look downstream of the filter element, which is fine if you want to monitor the efficiency of the element. On the return line is another, often suggested, place which to me doesn’t make much sense. If the cleanliness should rise at this point, how would you determine where it came from? You would be forced to backtrack through the system until you found the point where the cleanliness went down. On the other hand, if you monitor what is feeding all the components and maintained the feed oil, the system should last. I also believe that a periodic check at other points in the system isn’t a bad idea. This will certainly give the operator peace of mind. The right answer is the question “What is the user interested in accomplishing through monitoring”? Do I have to install the System 20 sensor to do a particle count? No, you do not have to install the System 20 Sensors in-line and do particle counting. They are necessary only if you want to do temperature, flow and pressure measurements. If the system is pressurized the LCM20 can be connected directly to any pressure point via SPS methods. Care should be taken when connecting to a pressure point that the discharge hose is pointed away from anyone. Have a bucket or pail to catch the waste; better yet it could be returned to the reservoir or a lower pressure point in the system. Do you have a bottle sampler? Yes we do have a bottle sampling device. It works off 12VDC and the LCM20 connects directly to it. The UBS has a built-in waste container. I have a pressure compensated system. Can I sample from it? Yes, but only while it’s working. The problem is that there is flow only when there is demand. Closed loop systems are easier because you can have pressure with no flow and it is generally high enough to get the oil through the LCM20 via a single point. With open loop we have more difficulty because you can have flow with no pressure. This presents a problem in getting the oil out of the system. In those cases it is wise to work the system as close to normal operation keeping safety issues in mind to get the sample out.

Questions and Answers Continued….. What should my system’s ISO code be? This is the most difficult question to answer. You have to know what components are in the system to determine what it should be. Then you need to know the maintenance history of the system to determine where it might be now. Published literature has always said, set the cleanliness level of your system on the least tolerant component to maximise the system’s efficiency. How do I know the sample data is good or bad? Well, there is no foolproof way of knowing if the data is good or bad. Generally, if there are no error messages at the end of the test then you can consider the data good. Remember, the LCM20 counts whatever is in the fluid stream at that time. One thing to do is run several tests without moving the counter to see if the count is repeatable and consistent if successive tests give relatively the same code or count then that is what the system is. You may not like the answer, but that is another issue. What happens when the LCM20 reaches 300 tests in one memory? When the LCM20 reaches 300th test the memory rolls back to test number one. Some misunderstanding with this is that you get tests 299 and back. This is not true. The rollover that occurs cleans the memory and begins at one. It is wise when you get close to download the results so you don’t lose any data. Does the LCM20 need to be calibrated? Yes, it is recommended that the LCM20 be verified once a year against the master unit in the factory. As with any analytical instrument periodic verification is recommended. This is not unusual.

14.1 Re-confirmation of the independent findings of Aachen University – Germany as to the suitability of the CM20 PORTABLE PARTICLE COUNTER for use in hydraulic systems A DESCRIPTION OF THE CM20 CONTAMINATION MONITOR Like the APC, the CM20 operates on the extinction principle. During this process the optical window of the measuring cell has a width of 400 µm. As it is not possible to investigate such a small area with sufficient accuracy using a photo-diode, this optical window is magnified five-fold using a special design. The CM20 is connected to an oil line via a bypass and operates in a pressure range between 2 and 420 bar and with a throughput between 15 and 100 l/min (mobile System 20 sensor size 1). Flow rates up to 380 l/min can be achieved with the Size 2 System 20 sensor. PERFORMANCE OF THE TRIAL In the trials undertaken, contamination concentrations were set between 0.1 and 10 mg/l ACFTD in accordance with ISO 4402 and the measurements of the number of particles taken by the CM20 were compared with those of the APC-sensor in the four size ranges >5 µm, >15 µm, >25 µm and >50 µm. TRIAL RESULTS The results were shown as the comparisons of the particle figures for the reference particle sensor (APC) and the CM20 sensor for various particle sizes: >5 µm, >15 µm, >25 µm and >50 µm. CONCLUSION The CM20 Contamination Monitor from Parker Filtration was operated in a hydraulic system with differing degrees of contamination. During the latter it was shown that the instrument is well suited to determining the degree of contamination of a hydraulic oil. Measurements undertaken were able to show that a good correspondence was achieved in the numbers of dirt particles in the oil when compared with a reference particle sensor. The contamination classes calculated from these numbers of particles in accordance with NAS 1638 and ISO 4406 are identical for the CM20 and the reference particle sensor in almost all cases, a deviation by one class only occurred in 2 out of 20 cases and was caused by the fact that the number of particles was close to the sharp division between the classes and therefore the slight difference between the numbers expressed itself as different classes. Furthermore, it was apparent that the user-friendly operating system makes it considerably easier to determine the status of a liquid under pressure in practical applications with regard to its solid content and to state a contamination class.

15.1 Oilcheck

The Oilcheck is a comparative instrument, which detects and measures the dielectric constant in a used oil sample, which is compared against results taken from an unused lubricant of the same type and brand. Through this operation the Oilcheck is able to show changes in the oil condition brought about the ingress of water content, fuel contamination, metallic content and oxidation. The Oilcheck can remove the need for costly and time consuming laboratory analysis of mineral and synthetic oils used in engines, gearboxes and bearing lubrication systems fast and accurately. It detects mechanical wear and any loss of lubricating properties in

the oil with a repeat accuracy of less than 5%. Oilcheck is available with a numerical display to show positive or negative increases in dielectrics. Case construction: ABS Circuitry: Microprocessor control Battery: 1x9V Alkaline Display: LCD Suitable Oil Types: Mineral and Synthetic based oils Repeatability: Better than 5% Readout: Colour grading, Numerical Value (0–100) Battery Lifetime: >150 Hours or 3,000 Tests Dimensions: 250mm x 95mm x 34mm (9.8" x 3.7" x 1.3") Weight: 0.4kg

15.2 Moisture Sensor

Cost-effective Moisture detection Water enters hydraulic and lubricating systems from a variety of sources. Atmospheric ingressions of water vapour, as well as internal heat exchanger leaks, create unfavourable operating conditions. The Parker MS100 Moisture Sensor eliminates the guesswork by providing real time condition monitoring. It is designed to work in petroleum/synthetic hydraulic and lubricating oil applications. The MS100 Moisture Sensor offers fast, reliable and accurate in-line detection of moisture in fluids. The MS100 transducer type technology has been especially designed with the preventative maintenance programme

environment in mind. The industry accepted sensing cell device will monitor and report Relative Humidity (RH), moisture content in oils. The water content measurement technique offers the end user benefits over the current standard form of water content reporting (PPM). The MS100 will provide the user with reliable data on the rate of water take up, as the fluid absorbs water. The device can report % RH water content as increases are detected giving the user information on how close to the fluids real saturation point has been reached. This allows for real time preventative maintenance to be undertaken and corrective actions to be made. By knowing that the water contamination is still within the oils absorbing range, less than 100%, reclaiming fluid properties before additive damage occurs can initiate calculable cost savings. An optional electronic readout device is also available. Typical applications include: • Pulp and Paper Plants • Marine Hydraulics • Power Transmission & Distribution • Oil Reclamation • Industrial Hydraulics

15.3 H2Oil -Water In Oil Monitor Water in oil monitoring from one on-line monitor H2Oil is a 2-channel non-dispersive absorption spectrometer, designed to measure the level of absorbed water content polluting the oil in a sample bottle or by dynamically connecting inline System 20 Sensor or Single Point Sampler. The H2Oil features a re-chargeable 12 Vdc power-pack, on board diagnostic computer and printer for effective logging and data retrieval.

• Accurate measurement of 0-3000ppm absorbed water contamination in oil. • On-line operation up to 420 bar. • Results displayed as percentage water content or parts per million. • RS232 download facility. • Optional oil delivery kit for customer offline oil sampling. 15.4 Guardian ®

Guardian® is a portable filtration system with two main functions: to ensure that the new ‘dirty’ fluid often contaminated during handling, is delivered to the system at a specific cleanliness; and to permit periodic clean up of existing fluid to original condition. Filtration Media: • Lightweight compact unit • Easy single switch operation • Uses standard Parker elements • Bypass flow returned to inlet port • Water removal option available Operating Pressure: 2 bar Flow Rate: 15 l/min Motor Rating: 220/240v AC 210v AC

15.5 5MF and 10MF Series

Parker’s 5MF and 10MF Series portable filtration carts are designed for on- site preventative maintenance of fluid systems. An internal pump draws fluid through a primary clean-up filter and through a high quality polishing filter to remove particulate contamination down to 4µm (c) absolute. Parker Carts are the ideal way to prefilter and transfer fluids into reservoirs, or to clean up existing systems. Contamination, both particulate and water, may be added to a new fluid during processing, mixing, handling and storage. Water is removed by installing Par-Gel™ elements in the outer filter. These elements are made from a polymer, which has an extremely high affinity for free, water. Once water comes into contact with this material, it is removed from the system.

The cart uses two high capacity Parker filters for long element life and better systems protection. The first stage (inlet) filter captures larger particles, while the second stage (outlet) filter controls finer particles or removes water. A rugged industrial quality gear pump gets the job done fast. Flow Rate: 28 l/min Pump: 28 l/min pressure balanced gear pump Pump Drive Options: 240v A.C 110v A.C

15.6 PVS

Contaminated oil is drawn into the Parker portable purification system by a vacuum of 846.5 millibars. The oil passes through the in-line low watt density heater where the oil is heated to an optimum temperature of 66°C (150°F). The oil then enters the distillation column where it is exposed to the vacuum through the use of special dispersal elements. This increases the exposed surface of the oil and converts the water to vapour form, which is then drawn through the condenser by the vacuum pump. The water-free oil falls to the bottom of the column and is removed by a heavy duty lube oil pump. This pump forces the dry oil through a final particulate removal filter. Clean oil passes out of the unit, back to the reservoir – and into the system.

15.7 Transducers & Transmitters

To overcome the historical problems caused by "gauge creep" of thick film sensors and the fragility of peizo-electric/ceramic based sensors, the new 'Performer' range uses a high-grade Stainless Steel element, which is coated with layers of both insulative and alloy materials. These are trimmed to a very close tolerance using state of the art, semiconductor grade, laser and lon beam methods. This extremely accurate "front end" is then coupled with Application Specific Integrated Circuitry (ASIC) to produce a sensor that is both accurate and repeatable over a wide temperature range, - 40°C to +125°C. The "Performer" is now available in a variety of thread-forms and connector options. This new design offers a high stability, very low drift device, which can operate over a wide thermal range. Powered from an extended working supply range (9-35vdc {PTD} and 11-35vdc {PTX}).

Applications for The ASIC Performer • Forklift trucks • Truck mounted cranes • Earth moving machinery • Racing car • Water usage systems • Forest Machinery • Paper mills Pressure ranges: 20, 60, 100, 250, 400, 700 Bar.

LPA2 SERIES 30

Bottle sampling 110 ml and 250 ml options

LPA2 SERIES 30

110 ml standard bottle sampler unit incorporates de-aeration facility. Suitable for mineral oil applications only.

250 ml laboratory bottle sampler unit incorporatesde-aeration facility. Suitable for both mineral oiland phosphate ester applications.

A simple selection of the correct switch will enable theuser to choose between Vacuumfor de-aeration or Sample to carry out analysis of the bottle sample.

View of 110 mlbottle sampler

A highly aerated fluid may lead to inaccurate result when

analysed, therefore a de-aeration facility has been

incorporated into the bottle sampling units. By evacuating

the sampling chamber aeration within the fluid is removed

and the fluid is conditioned prior to sampling

Any entrained or free air in the oil media at time of bottle

Sampling may be shown as part of the particle count.

This would lead to inaccuracies of the cleanliness results.

As air can be seen as a contaminant.

An example of the difference between an aerated sample

and a non aerated sample can be seen in this picture.

MP Filtri UK can supply laborator y standard sample bottles. Par t No: .P. O2.These have been cleaned in accordance with DIN/ISO 5884.

The degree of cleanliness has beenverified to ISO 3722 with a NAS 1638cleanliness cer tification of between Class 00 and Class 0.

It is essential that only sample bottles which have been cleaned to ISO 3722 standard are used. Modern hydraulic systems featuring highly effective filters have fluid clean-liness levels that approach that of the sample bottle itself.The use of un-cleaned bottle can greatly increase the particle counts. ( Please note sterilisation kills bacteriabut does not remove particles). Perhaps of even greaterconcern is the variability in their levels of cleanliness. A sudden increase in contamination could be caused by the sample bottle. This apparent increase could instigateunnecessary corrective action.

The HIAC Model PC4000 Portable Liquid Particle Counter combines rugged, portableconstruction with laboratory instrument performance. It is a cost-effective, easy to use,contamination measurement tool for online analyses. The Model PC4000 offers theflexibility required in today’s multi-application workplace.

Hydraulic component and system manufacturers agree–over 70% of machinefailures are caused by contamination. Contamination levels that exceed hydraulic andlubrication tolerances cause premature failure, increased maintenance costs, system powerloss, and costly downtime. Contamination comes from many sources, including ingressionthrough seals, breathers, debris from repairs, as well as new fluids. These sources ofcontamination often start the cycle of wear, which when left unmonitored, quickly escalatesto downtime or even catastrophic failure.

Optical particle counters allow hydraulic systems and fluids to be routinelymonitored for cleanliness. Test results can initiate corrective actions, resulting in extendedmachine life, reduced operation costs, and scheduled maintenance periods. The ModelPC4000 portable particle counter was specifically designed with your hydraulic needs inmind. Whether performing system diagnostics or QA testing for final cleanliness, thePC4000 delivers the most valuable indication of hydraulic system condition available today.

With 4 µm(c) traceable sensitivity and laser diode precision, theModel PC4000 reports particle counts to the newest industry standards. This fullyself-contained counter accurately qualifies your samples, performing laboratory-preciseanalyses in the field and factory.

CCS 2 - Contamination Control System

Online Analysis

Important information is available with use of particle distribution data to analyseconditions in hydraulic and lubrication systems:• Efficiency of the filter configuration in use

• Compliance with fluid cleanliness demanded for the assigned components

• Shifting of the system wear position• Variation with secondary contaminationThrough use of this data, the user can optimize system cleanliness to reduce system component wear, oil degradation and system downtime. Particle analysiscan be executed by various methods. One common method is by taking a bottlesample and sending it to a lab for analysis. This can be problematic, if care is not taken to assure the quality of each sample (e.g. bottle cleanliness, sampling location, etc.). In addition, sampling at dynamic operating conditions is extremely difficult or not practical. Oil sampling out of the reservoir also limits results to basicoil condition, rather than specific data for each system. Bottle sampling is becomingless advantageous as costs rise and time elapses between sampling and final results.

Technology

The development of the CCS 2 focuses on realizing an Online measuring methodwith lab-quality results, making particle analysis by operating conditions possible at various points in the system. Oil analysis for hydraulic components such as servo valves, proportional valves or high pressure pumps can now be achieved online, making fast reaction possible for alarming situations, which need immediate attention. This fast reaction can be achieved by a system integrated relays outputsignal.

The actual contamination condition of the pressure or lubrication medium is determined by means of automatic particle counting through a laser sensor (light gate principle) and an integrated metering unit including a system pressure adjustment from 1.5 to 420 bar.The announcement of the contamination condition takes place in the form ofparticle numbers per measuring volume as well as particle numbers per contamination classes refering to ISO 4406:99, ISO 4406:87 or NAS 1638.The excess of programmable contamination classes limit values produces the expenditure of electrical control signals to the generation of alarm functionsor controlling of an off-line filter unit.The industrial PC with key pad, colour TFT-display, and user friendly software guarantees easy operation and data management. The documentation of the measurement data can be displayed on the integrated printer or downloaded to another PC through the RS 232 connection. We get it to the light!
