Phase 4 - Settling; Phase 5 - Measuring - Advanced Sensors OIW-EX Series User Handbook Manual

2.3.3.5 – Phase 4 – Settling
A short setting period is required after homogenisation has finished allowing any gases to dissipate and create a more
stable suspension in the sample chamber. This setting period is also configurable, from the 'Schedule Configuration'
menu, to optimize the settling time for the given oil type.
Status Display during Settling:
During this phase 'SETTLING' will appear in the status display with a countdown timer to indicate the remaining settling
time, as shown below.
2.3.3.6 – Phase 5 – Measuring (Scheduled Measurement)
The duration of a scheduled measurement phase is user configurable. At scheduled intervals an isolated sample is
homogenised, evenly distributing the oil droplets for a more accurate reading.
INFORMATION: Measurements cannot be taken during the Cleaning Phase.
Status Display during Measuring:
During this phase 'MEASURING' will appear in the status display with a countdown timer to indicate the remaining
measurement time, as shown below:
At the end of this phase the calculated average measured value is displayed in blue text for 3 seconds.
