  • Page 8: Procedure Of General Particle Counting

    5.5 Procedure of general particle counting 1. The OS132 does not count any particles in the first 5 minutes. During this period, it performs a purge process to ensure that any remaining particles in the system are blown out. 2. After purging, the OS132 starts sampling at a sampling interval of 1 minute.
  • Page 9: Installation

    7.1 Installation methods OS132 can be used as a stationary or portable instrument. OS132 comes with four mounting brackets. In the stationary installation, mount the brackets from the backside of the instrument at each corner. The brackets enable you to install the instrument on the wall easily. The following are dimensional drawings of two installing methods.

    2. Check the filter in the test kit to see whether it shows high contamination of water, oil or dust. 3. If the filter is contaminated severely, stop using the OS132 for measurement because this may lead to serious damage to the device.

    Ensure that valves at the sampling point are not lubricated. • ATTENTION! Avoid contamination with oil or grease! It will lead to very slow measurement or impossible measurement results! 7.3 Electrical connection The OS132 comes with three M12 connectors A, B, C, and a RJ-45 connector.

    To input the contact information of the company that provides the service. This information is displayed on the PDF report. Guided measurement The OS132 provides a software-based guided measurement which takes you through the complete measurement. This leads to a simplified measurement process and prevents you from wrong measurements.

    2. Select the type of measurement that you want to perform. Monitoring with programmed time out: It starts a measurement ◦ with a user-programmed period of measurement time. You can set the measurement time during the process of measurement preparation. The system will then, after finishing the programmed measurement duration, stop the measurement automatically and save the data.

    Situation Relay state OS132 is powered off OPEN OS132 is powered on / The alarm value is not reached CLOSED OS132 is powered on / The alarm value is reached OPEN The advantage of the normally open relay is, that both critical situations can be detected, not only if the alarm value is reached, also if the device has any power loss.

    Service kit is an optional tool that enables you to manage and monitor the company's devices on a computer. The following figure shows the connection of the service kit, OS132, and the computer. Please ensure that either the OS132 or the service kit is connected with the power supply because the USB port cannot supply enough power to both these two devices.
  • Page 29: Maintenance

    inquiry with the calibration service, please contact the manufacturer. ATTENTION! Please save all your measurement data on an external device before returning the instrument to calibration and service. It might be necessary to reset the displays storage during calibration and service. Maintenance To clean the device and its accessories, it is recommended to use moist cloth only.
