> 176 °F (80 °C). ™ Emerson does not supply a switching system with the instrument. The customer must supply a suitably rated switch or circuit breaker to be included with this installation. Check the installation of the switch for conformity in accordance with national/local regulations and standards by inspection.
WARNING! LIFTING HAZARD The system weighs 268 lb. (119 kg). Beware of collision injury and topple injury when moving. ™ Emerson recommends using a forklift to move the system. WARNING! CRUSH HAZARD Be careful not to crush hands and feet when moving the system.

Installation Figure 2-6: Ground Fixing Refer to the fastener manufacturer's guide for fixing instructions and torque. g. Place the cap covers over the access holes. Attach the light gate to the track. a. Drill the location hole(s) into the track side faces in the approximate positions required for input gate.
Page 25
Installation Attach the reject mechanism. WARNING! DRILL INJURY Be careful to avoid injuring hands and eyes when drilling. Wear correct PPE at all times. a. Drill two location holes into the track side face in the approximate positions required for the reject mechanism. Use track location T slots if available (no drilling required).
When production begins, turn the blower isolator to the ON position. NOTICE ™ Emerson recommends that the blower is switched off when the production line is not running. This will extend the lifetime of the sample air filter. Press the Reset button on the front of the console and ensure there is a green light on the beacon.
Operation Operation The packaged Leak Detection System is designed to run autonomously with minimal user interaction required. After the startup procedure in Chapter 3, the system needs only a green light to run. There are up to three components mounted onto the packaged production line. The layout of the line is shown schematically in Figure 4-1.
Operation Leak detector manager (LDM) software The LDM software is designed to give clear information at-a-glance. Figure 4-2: LDM Home screen Start/Stop Monitoring: Automatically starts monitoring during startup. Pressing the button again will pause the system and stop measuring. Configure: Accesses the settings and parameters of the system and is password protected. Reset Alarms: Clears alarms and resets status alarms to green.

Operation Figure 4-3: Concentration Tab Figure 4-3 shows the Concentration tab with one leaking package passing through. When the blue line reaches the upper threshold (red line), the sensor sends a rejection signal to the PLC and then the rejection solenoid to remove the faulty pack from the line. The lower threshold is typically approximately 80 percent of the upper threshold and prevents the system from missing a marginal leak.

Operation Figure 4-4: UNIT Tab Figure 4-4 shows the UNIT tab when a leaking pack has passed through. The plot shows all data points between the input and output gate and records the size of the rejection spike. CT4215...
Operation Data logging and reporting The system can store production statistics like packs processed and number of rejects. This can be transferred from the HMI on a USB stick to be analyzed elsewhere. To enable the Reporting screen, click the Reports tab. The Reporting screen is password protected, and the password will be supplied or changed during installation.

Operation Figure 4-6: Sample Report File • Client/Product/Batch: These are entered during the creation of the log file. • Date/Time: The timestamp for each unit; this is set by the PC. • Leak (abs): The maximum concentration value for each unit. If this value is greater than the upper threshold, this package will be rejected.
Operation Status lamps / errors There are a number of errors that the Leak Detection System monitors, which may occur during the normal operation of the system. The errors are displayed as an illuminated lamp on the front of the enclosure. All errors latch and are cleared by the RESET button on the front of the enclosure.
Page 34
Operation Figure 4-8: LDM Software Errors System Ready: Shows when the system is ready for use. This is red during system start up. System Healthy: The system can become unhealthy if the gate in/out count is different or if there have been n consecutive rejects (the default value is five consecutive rejects).
Operation Figure 4-9: Consecutive Rejects Error Line stop The control system provides a signal that can stop the production line if there are errors on the system. The signal is sent to the STATUS connector shown in Figure 1-2. The connection is a volt- free contact and can be configured in Normally Closed (NC) and Normally Open (NO) from a customer supplied 24 V.
Operation PLC configuration screen CAUTION! EQUIPMENT DAMAGE The PLC settings directly control the analysis and rejection of defective containers. Only trained personnel should change the settings listed below. The PLC screen has password protection in order to prevent unauthorized access. The credentials are provided to the relevant department during installation.
