UTOMATIC STOPPING DEVICE TEST
11.1 W
HILE SEPARATOR IS ACTIVE
If the separator is active and the automatic stopping device is not activated (overboard valve open) it
is possible to force the activation of the stopping device for a short period of time (10 s) by holding
in the main menu. This allows testing that the automatic is correctly connected.
11.2 W
HILE SEPARATOR IS NOT ACTIVE
To check that the automatic stopping device is correctly connected see 12.2 Step 2.

ESPONSE TEST
12.1 S

TEP
To check that the sensor responds to objects in the measuring path unscrew the cleaning cap (top of
SENSOR housing) and insert a long plastic rod or something similar into the measuring path. Do not
use anything that might scratch or in other ways damage the glass tube inside the SENSOR housing
(as for example screwdrivers). If the sensor is working properly the display should read "PPM>30.0"
(main menu). Note that the air-detection feature of the SENSOR requires the glass tube to be filled
with water during this test for it to work.

TEP
Testing alarms and valves are done in simulation mode (see 10.5 Simulation) or in the test outputs
submenu of the cleaning & test menu (see 10.10.3 Test outputs) since this doesn't require opening
the MASTER housing.
12.3 A
LTERNATIVE
To make step 1 of the response test affect alarms and valves the apparatus needs to be active.
Bilgmon488 is activated (flashing green led) when in main menu and the separator input signal is
active. Activation can be done by shorting the "separator status" input (see 8.3 Electrical). This
method is not recommended since there is an obvious risk of forgetting the strap and that it
requires opening the MASTER unit. It will also generate a false recording of OWS operation
(SEP_ON/SEP_OFF) in the log.
13 C
ALIBRATION CHECK
Doing a calibration check requires the "Bilgmon488 calibration check kit" (bought separately). This kit
also contain detailed information on procedures and mixtures used in the calibration check
procedure.
See sections 10.10.1 Clean cell (zero calibration) and 10.10.2 Check 40NTU cal (calibration check).
Note: Complete calibration can only be performed by factory. Calibration check will perform a zero
calibration and a check of the units calibration values compared to those set at production.
