For your safety


• Take special care when carrying out operations marked with this
symbol -
otherwise danger to life!

• Strictly adhere to instructions marked with this symbol.


This avoids damage to the separator and other equipment.

Note: • This symbol is not a safety precaution but rather a reference to infor-
mation which help to better understand the separator or plant compo-
nents and the processes.

3.3 Waterdetector (WMS Sensor) check .....................................................23

GEA Mechanical Equipment / GEA Westfalia Separator

3.1 Maintenance interval of the separator

Maintenance-Interval:

Adjust operating hours

Set: 4000 h 0m 0s

Actual: 22 h 12 m 46 s

The factory setting for "Set" is a maintenance interval of 4000 hours as specified
in the separator instruction manual. Under "Actual", the operating hours of the
separator are counted.
When the pre-set number of operating hours is reached, a common alarm is ac-
tivated and a corresponding warning appears in the display. A common alarm
does not interrupt the separating program and must be acknowledged using the
ACK key.

Note:
Please take the maintenance interval setting from the instruction manual of the
separator used.

3.2 Maintenance interval of the Waterdetector (WMS-Sensor)

Maintenance-Interval WMS

Adjust operating hours

Set: 168 h 0m 0s

Actual: 22 h 12 m 46 s

Last water signal WMS:


211 h 48 m 21 s

The factory setting for "Set" is a maintenance interval of 168 hours (1 week).
Under "Actual", the operating hours of the WMS-Sensor water signal is counted.
In the case the “Actual” counter came up to the preset operating hours, a main-
tenance message will be activated with a corresponding hint that the WMS-
Sensor Check must be done! The message does not interrupt the separation
process and must be acknowledged with the „ACK“button after the WMS Sen-
sor Check. The acknowledgement resets the the “Actual” value.
Under “Last water signal WMS” the operating hours of the WMS Sensor since
the last water indication are counted. Only a water signal resets the operating
hours for “Last water signal WMS”.

GEA Mechanical Equipment / GEA Westfalia Separator


8555-9201-160 / 1010 23

3.3 Waterdetector (WMS Sensor) check

In the case the message „Maintenance WMS-Sensor“ occurs in the display, a manual check of the WMS-
Sensor function must be done. Please follow up the described steps!

Step

1 • Stop separation sequence by pushing touch key “Prog. OFF” on the control unit.

2 • Unscrew filling and displacement water


line (1).

3 • Remove the plug of the coupler socket (2).


• Assemble and connect filling and dis-
placement water feed line (1) with coupler
socket (2).

GEA Mechanical Equipment / GEA Westfalia Separator


24 8555-9201-160 / 1010

Step

4 • Turn over manual overide (A) of the filling


and displacement water feed valve (right
solenoid valve of the solenoid valve as-
sembly complete) for a maximum time of 5
seconds.

A:
Position 1: closed
Position 2: open

5 At the control unit


• Check signal input of the waterdetector (WMS-Sensor).
• Call up Digital-Input „DI 0.5“.
– DI 0.5 must change from status „0“ to „1“.

In the case that the signal did not change, • Take note to the chapter „Maintenance schedule“
• Remove waterdetector (WMS-Sensor), of the instruction manual of the used separator.
clean it and check function.

If the malfunction still persists,


• Waterdetector (WMS-Sensor) must be
exchanged.

6 • Check display „Maintenance-Interval WMS“ at control unit.


– The values for „Actual“ and „Last water signal WMS“ must be set back to 0.

7 • Remove filling and displacement water


line (1) from the coupler socket (2) and re-
connect it with the handle piece.

• Plug oft he coupler socket (2) must be


installed again.

8 Start of the separation process is possible by pushing the touch key „Prig. ON“ at the control unit.
