Kapitel 4 - Safety Instructions Seite 5 Personnel Working on the Aerosol Monitor The installation, electrical connection and all interventions such as The aerosol monitor is installed in the aerosol line of an MQL system. repairs, component replacement, etc. may be carried out only by Any work that is carried out during the installation on the aerosol adequately qualified and instructed personnel.
Kapitel 5 - Transport, Delivery, Storage Seite 6 Transport, Delivery, Storage Design and Function The aerosol monitor is packed in commercial standard packing System Design according to the requirement of the destination country and of DIN ISO 9001. There are no limitations for road, air or sea transport. Upon receiving the package, please check the items for possible damage, and ensure the package is complete by checking the supply papers.
In the SKF terminology, the term aerosol in minimum quantity lubrication technique stands for air mixed with finest lubricant droplets. The aerosol density is the quantity of the oil contained in the aerosol, related to the Functions air flow.
Kapitel 7 - Installation Seite 8 Installation Use the following flow chart to carry out installation and commissioning of the aerosol monitor: Configuration Erection Connecting the aerosol lines Electrical connection and settings Installation work may only be carried out on the previously de-energized and de-pressurized MQL system.
Please note, that the configuration of the related control unit of the ® Digital Super also have to be adjusted. Please refer to the UBRI related Operating Instructions and/or contact a SKF service centre to find the necessary settings. Fig. 2. View on the DIP switches. Bottom lid removed.
Kapitel 7 - Installation Seite 10 Installation The aerosol monitor should be installed on a vertical surface such that the aerosol lines run horizontally. The location of the monitor must remain the same during operation. The aerosol monitor should be installed such that it is protected against humidity and vibration, and easily accessible so that any further installation is possible without any problems.
Guidelines and recommendations for laying the aerosol lines can be found in the Operating Instructions of the related MQL system. Please contact a SKF service centre if you have any other questions when you install your MQL system (see Chapter 12, page 18).
Comply with the notes in this operating manual. Connect the bus cable (accessory) to establish the link to the SKF ® Digital Super MQL system. UBRI Please refer to the installation drawing and/or the leaflet of the aerosol monitor for recommended accessories for the electrical connection.

Kapitel 7 - Installation Seite 13 ® In the right-hand picture, the termination resistors in the L UBRI Digital Super control units are to de deactivated, and the ones in the aerosol monitors are to be activated. The termination resistor of the aerosol monitor is activated via a DIP switch at the bottom of the monitor (see Chapter 7.1, page 9).
Autonomous operation aerosol monitor. This process is known as "Teaching". To carry out Operation with connection to the bus system of a SKF L ® teaching, connect the teach adapter (accessory) to the right-hand...
Bus System of a SKF L Digital Super UBRI MQL System When the aerosol monitor is connected to the bus system of a SKF ® Digital Super MQL system, the measured values are trans- UBRI ferred via the bus link to the control unit of the MQL system where they are processed to yield additional characteristic variables (see Table 4).
Any work not described in these Instructions may only be carried out by authorized SKF service personnel. SKF LUBRICATION SYSTEMS GERMANY AG does not assume any responsibility for damages that are caused by improper maintenance on the aerosol monitor or MQL system.
