Description / Overview
5 Description / Overview
NOTE
The alcohol stabiliser is intended solely for the measurement and control of the
alcohol content (2-Propanol, IPA) of the dampening solution.
The device should be used only in combination with technotrans dampening

solution cooling units.
The alcocontrol alcohol stabiliser is designed for a constant control and

stabilisation of the alcohol concentration in the dampening solution.
The alcocontrol measures the alcohol (2-propanol, IPA) concentration in the
dampening solution. The IPA concentration is measured using a densimeter.
The alcohol stabiliser consists of the following main functional parts:

• Measuring head with displacement sensor.
- A measuring float responds to the density of the dampening solution,
which changes proportionally to the alcohol concentration.
- If the alcohol concentration exceeds 20 Vol.-%, the float in the
dampening solution will sink down to such an extent that the
dampening solution circulator is switched off.
• Control system with display and operating panel.
- Display of actual values.
- Display and input of system parameters.
- Interface towards the processor electronics of the dampening solution
circulator.
• Ejector block for alcohol dosing.
NOTE
The unit has been designed for indoor use in industrial buildings.
28
Description / Overview
5.2 Redundant safety device of the alcohol stabiliser

The alcohol stabiliser is equipped with a redundant safety device (two safety
stages).
Safety stage 1:
When the system detects an alcohol content above 15% by volume in the
dampening solution, the alcohol supply will be switched off automatically.
Safety stage 2:
If safety stage 1 is not activated due to a malfunction, the system is switched off
through the second, parallel safety stage when the alcohol content exceeds 20%
by volume.
In addition to that a fault message appears in the display of the alcohol stabilizer
and on the processor electronics panel of the dampening solution circulator or the
control station (if installed). The alcohol supply will be stopped.
NOTE
If nevertheless there is an excessive dose of alcohol in the dampening solution,
switch off the dampening solution circulator immediately.
5.3 Factory protective measures
• Alcohol stabiliser with safety shut-off:

- Required performance level “d” in accordance with DIN EN ISO
13849-1,
- Floating switching contact 30V, 1A.
The alcohol stabiliser keeps the alcohol percentage constant and recognises
the alcohol concentration in the dampening solution tank (redundant alcohol
measurement system).
• Anti-static plastic containers to avoid electrostatic discharge.
• Redundant measuring system (performance level “d”, DIN EN ISO 13849-1).

10.4 Functional test of the redundant safety device

The redundant safety device will be tested automatically when the alcocontrol or
dampening solution circulator is switched on.
NOTE
In order to perform a functional test, the float housing must be completely empty
5 minutes after the alcocontrol has been switched off.
Check the float and float housing for dirt and clean them, if necessary.
Switch the dampening solution circulator off for 10 minutes at least once per
month.
10.5 Density correction and temperature compensation for areometer measurement

The areometers used for checking the IPA content in the dampening solution are
pure density measuring devices.
The concentration determined using an areometer is correct only for a pure
water/IPA mixture at a defined temperature of usually 20°C.
In addition to the water/IPA mixture, the dampening solution contains also additives
and dirt particles which influence the density of the mixture. In general, the
dampening solution temperature deviates substantially from 20°C. The IPA portion
contained in the dampening solution is therefore higher than the value read on the
measuring scale.

Maintenance
10.5.1 Correction scale
The change of density in the dampening solution due to the dampening solution
additive has a large influence on the measuring result and must be considered for
each areometer measurement.
The correction value depends on the density (g/cm³), the dosing of the dampening
solution additive (%) and the alcohol concentration (% by volume).

Maintenance
Commercial areometers are normally calibrated at 20°C. If a measurement is

performed in cooled dampening solution at approx. 10°C, another measurement
deviation will result. This can be compensated by using areometers with integrated
temperature compensation.
Example:
3
Additive density (according to safety data sheet) 1,15 g/cm
Dosing of dampening solution additive 3%
Alcohol concentration as read 9,1 Vol.-%
Density-compensated IPA concentration [% by volume] (not 14,0 Vol.-%
temperature-compensated)
+ temperature compensation from 10°C to 20°C *) 3.0 Vol.-%
Actual IPA concentration in the dampening solution 17,0 Vol.-%
*) = Areometers are designed for certain temperatures. In the case of different

temperatures, observe the associated temperature compensation of the aerometer
used.
The actual IPA concentration in the dampening solution of the example above is
17.0 % by volume for an areometer-measured value of 9.1 % by volume.
This example shows that the areometer measurement without a corresponding
density/temperature compensation does not allow proper statements about the true
IPA concentration in the dampening solution.
10.6 Restart
Prior to using the unit/system, it must be absolutely ensured that there are no
safety-critical defects or malfunctions. After the completion of the tasks and prior to
switching the unit/system on, comply with the following (if applicable):
• Ensure that any safety devices, guards and covers which were removed
prior to commencing the tasks have been properly reinstalled.
• Ensure that the area around the unit/system is free from tools, materials or
other pieces of equipment that had to be used.
• Clean the workspace and remove any liquid spills or similar substances.
