8. Maintenance and Checking
■ 8-1. Testing function
● The oil concentration detector has the following testing functions:
Manual operation, Zero-point check from the upper lid, Zero-point check from the fresh water line, and RECout output test (See "6-1
Tabulated list of menu items.")
● To execute a testing function, keep on pressing "Esc" for 2 seconds or longer in the standby state. (The testing function is not enabled while
the oil concentration detector is operation.)
● Select a testing function by pressing "▼" or "▲" in the "TEST Mode."
■ 8-1-1. Manual operation (Manual running)
● Used to test-operation the disabled bilge separator or to use the sensor stain check function after manual washing.
● Confirm the standby state. ("Standby" and the current time are displayed on the screen of the oil concentration detector body.
● The manual operation is enabled independently of the ON / OFF state of the pressure switch, but it automatically ends five minutes later.
After the manual operation ends, "Main Menu" is displayed back.
● Select "Manual running" by pressing "▼" or "▲" and press "Enter."
The manual operation starts independently of the pressure of sample water.
Confirm the oil concentration detector is in the standby state. ("Standby" and the current time are
displayed on the screen of the oil concentration detector.)
Close the valves at sample water line andat fresh water line. Open the upper lid of the sensor unit,
and open the drain valve to empty the sensor inside. Close the drain valve and feed mineral
water into the detection tube (to about 80% of the detection tube) from the top of the sensor unit
(from which the upper lid is removed), and close the upper lid. Keep on pressing "Esc" for two
seconds or longer in the standby state.
Press "▲" twice. "Test Mode" is displayed under "Main Menu."
Press "Enter." A screen appears to select a testing function item.
