Description of the FCU

The FluidControl Unit FCU can determine the solid particle contamination of
mineral oils on a continuous basis.
With the FCU, it is possible to record, save and display the Cleanliness Class
completely automatically during continuous operation in accordance with
NAS 1638 and/or SAEAS4059 or ISO 4406.
The measured values can be printed out online in the form of either tables or
graphs by means of the built-in dot-matrix printer or sent via serial interface
to a PC or a central display unit for visualization purposes there.
Filter units can for example be actuated via relay outputs.
For input and output functions, the FCU possesses a keyboard, an LCD
(Liquid Crystal Display), a dot-matrix printer, control relay outputs and a serial
data interface.
The FCU possesses a measurement port 1604 as an input for connection
with the hydraulic unit, as well as a DN 7 plug nipple as a return flow outlet.
A flow rate control valve is available for setting the measurement flow rate.
This is protected against larger particle contamination by an upstream filter.
Media from a depressurized reservoir can be inspected using the integrated
pump with the enclosed suction hoses (DN8).
The FCU has a rechargeable battery for approx. 5 hours of operation
independent of the mains network.
The FCU has a measured value memory for up to 3000 measured values,
which are stored in the form of logs (maximum of 100).

Hydraulic diagram
A continuous flow of oil runs through an optical sensor (1) comprised of an

infrared LED (2) and a photo receiver (3). The contamination particles
present in the flow of oil cause pulse-like darkenings of the light beam, which
are both classified as measurement signals in accordance with particle size
and counted by an evaluation electronics system (4).
The measurement of the flow rate, which is necessary for specifying the
contamination class, is carried out by a built-in flow rate sensor (5), the
signals from which are also channeled to the electronic evaluation system
(4).
Ultimately, the evaluation electronics (4) calculate on a continuous basis the
particle counts and the SAE / NAS or ISO contamination classes for the
reference volume of 100 ml, based on the measurement signals from the
optical sensor and the flow rate sensor.
Here the measured values (up to 3000) are also stored on a continuous basis
as they arise, together with date and time, in a manner that is safe from
network outages. A battery-buffered real-time clock is available for this
purpose.
A flow control valve (7) is available for adjusting the pressure fluctuation-
independent flow of oil.
A hydraulic filter (8) with electrical contamination indicator is positioned
upstream from this for the purpose of protecting against failure due to
contamination.
The permanently adjusted valves (9) and (10) and the diaphragm memory
(15) enable the connection to extraction points for the pressure range of 1-
350 bar at the "INLET" access point.
The FCU can be operated via keyboard (12). Characteristic values for the
measurement can be modified and various kinds of presentation can be
selected in the LCD display (6).
If not set otherwise, the following information is continuously displayed during
the measurement (see also in this connection the chapter "The Display of the
FCU"):
• selected measurement mode
• Progress of the ongoing measurement
• Current value of the measurement results for 2 of the 4 particle size
channels
• Tendency: increasing or decreasing ↓
• Current flow value
• only in the event of fault -> Error messages
Furthermore, the FCU also possesses 3 built-in relays with the following
functions:
FCU 2000-4 series en(us) 24 / 120

Hydraulic diagram
Relays 1 and 2 are limit value switches (change-over contacts) and also
serve to control a filtration unit.
Relay 3 outputs the operational readiness signal (DEVICE READY)
(closing device; closed when FCU is ready for operation)
The evaluation electronics in the FCU continuously monitors for this purpose
the following:
• the particle sensor
• the filter clogging indicator
• the flow rate sensor
• the power supply voltage
• the internal evaluation electronics
The contact from Relay 3 is always closed during normal operation.
Relay 3 opens the contact when a malfunction is recognized.
A corresponding fault message appears automatically in the display in the
event of a malfunction, and the storing of data is interrupted. (see also in this
connection the chapter Error Messages / Troubleshooting)
As soon as the error has been rectified, the evaluation electronics recognizes
this fact, resets the fault message fully automatically and closes the Relay 3
contacts. Both the measuring operations and the storing of data are
resumed.
This ensures that measurement operations can restart without requiring the
intervention of operating personnel after malfunctions such as voltage loss,
flow errors caused by drops in pressure, etc. have been eliminated in
permanent online operation.
All of the measured and stored measured values can be read out via the
serial interface (11), e.g. by means of a PC. (Software and cable are included
in the scope of delivery.)
The built-in dot-matrix printer (14) documents the measurements in the form
of tables or graphs.

Switching on the FCU
Switching on the FCU

When the FCU is switched on, various things are shown in the display, i.e.
model no., firmware version, available memory, battery charge status, bus
address and, possibly, error messages (cf. Error Messages / Troubleshooting
chapter).
Example:

The FCU is now ready for operation.
Selecting the Viscosity Range

During startup, the viscosity range currently set is shown in the display.
Before the first measurement, check the viscosity of the fluid to be measured
and correct the settings if required. You can find details on change-over of
the viscosity range on page 78.
The FCU provides two viscosity ranges for selection:

1 … 10 mm²/s
5 … 1000 mm²/s

Conducting Measurements via the High-Pressure Port INLET
Press the "START" key and set the flow rate to approx. 100 ml/min, using
the flow control valve on the front.
If an error message appears in the display, turn the flow control valve in the
required direction until the error message disappears and measurement
operation starts automatically.
Conducting measurements via the integrated pump SUCTION INLET
NOTICE
Overloading the internal pumps
► Operate the FCU only using the original power adapter.

The integrated overload protection protects the FCU pump.
Turn the flow control valve knob on the front side of the FCU all the way
clockwise.
The installed FCU pump can be supplied with power "internally" via the
integrated battery or "externally" via the power adapter.
Check the setting for "internal" or "external" in the Pump supply menu. For
details on change-over, see page 74.
The factory setting of the FCU is "internal".
One battery charge is sufficient for conducting measurements using the
pump for approx. 2 hours.
In order to make use of the full viscosity range, you must connect
both power adapters. You can find the permitted viscosity ranges
when operating with an internal pump on page 99.
The power consumption of the pump is dependent on the
viscosity of the fluid to be conveyed. Starting with a viscosity of >
150 mm2/s and upwards, the power consumption is so great that
the overload protection feature of the power adapter connected
may respond after a certain amount of time and the power supply
will be shut off.
This prevents the pump motor from overheating. The ongoing
measurement will be interrupted with a flow error. The power
supply will then switch the power supply back on automatically
after it has cooled down.
FCU 2000-4 series en(us) 42 / 120

Operating FCU
Actuate the "START" key to start the measurement. The flow rate is
automatically set to approx. 100 ml/min insofar as the viscosity of the
medium permits this.
Operating FCU
The various operating menus of the FCU are described in this section. The
following conventions are used:
• Non-variable display texts are highlighted in light gray (printed

MODE "M1: Measure"

MODE M1 "Measurement" is used for measuring oil cleanliness without using
the control functions.
Typical applications: Short-time measurement of system cleanliness
MODE "M2: Measure and switch"

MODE M2 "Measure and switch" can be used for measuring the cleanliness
of the oil in the hydraulic system, at the same time offering the possibility of
controlling limit relays for signaling purposes. This means that this menu
enables the user to have external devices switched by two relays. An
example of this would be an alarm indicator lamp on a control panel.
Possible reference values for triggering these switching sequences:
The flow (volumetric flow rate)
Cleanliness rating of the hydraulic fluid (indicated according to NAS or SAE
or ISO)
Typical applications: Signal switching to a control panel at fully
automated test benches.
MODE "M3:: Filter to" (performance of automatic filtration)

MODE M3 "Filter to" enables the FCU to assume control of an external
filtration unit (e.g. OF5C). In so doing, the external filtration unit is controlled
in such a way that it is switched off by the FCU after it has fallen below the
specified limit 5 times.
Typical applications: Flushing of hydraulic systems and documentation
of the oil cleanliness rating achieved by way of an
online printout.
FCU 2000-4 series en(us) 46 / 120

FCU menus
MODE "M4:: Filter from to" (performance of automatic filtration)

MODE M4 "Filter from ... to..." enables the FCU to assume control of an
external filtration unit (e.g. OF5C). The external filtration unit will be controlled
thereby in such a way that the oil cleanliness in the tank to be monitored will
always be within the specified limits.
If the lower limit value is reached or if it is not met, then the FCU will switch
off the unit to be actuated and the test cycle time begins. After the test cycle
time has elapsed, the FCU carries out a testing measurement (100 ml) and
checks whether the measured values lie within the limit values. If "yes", then
the test cycle time begins again; if "no", then the device is switched on in
order to filter the fluid.
If the test cycle time setting is below LIMITS 0 [min], then this function is
switched off.
Typical applications: Long-term monitoring and filtration of the oil
cleanliness in hydraulic systems and
documentation thereof via an online printout.
MODE "M5: Measure Autostop"

MODE M5 "Measure autostop" enables the number (1 to 100) of single
measurements to be programmed via the FCU’s high-pressure port, after
which measurement operation is concluded automatically.When online
printing is activated, the result of the last measurement is additionally
outputted in the form of particle counts (absolute value).
Typical applications: Routine analysis of the cleanliness of a hydraulic
system using a defined number of measurements.
MODE "M6: Autostop pump"

MODE M6 "Autostop pump” enables the number (1 to 100) of single
measurements to be programmed via the FCU’s suction inlet, after which
measurement operation is concluded automatically.
The integrated pump starts up when the OK/START button is pressed.
The first measurement begins immediately after the set start delay.
(The start delay is used to air-bleed and rinse the FCU)
When online printing is activated, the result of the last measurement is
additionally outputted in the form of particle counts (absolute value).
Typical applications: Gauging the oil cleanliness of a tank or an oil
sample.

Setting the pump start delay

When conducting measurements with the aid of an external pump or an
external filtration unit (e.g. OF5C), this function enables the user to operate
the pump for a limited period of time within which a flow has to start at the
FCU.
When the pump start delay has elapsed and the FCU does not detect any
flow, measurement is stopped and the unit connected via a relay is switched
off so as to prevent damage caused by dry running of the pump. This
function is in effect in all operating modes except M2.
Measurement resumes as soon as enough flow is available. The stopping
time ranges from 1 to 200 seconds (practical recommendation: 60 seconds).
The 0 sec. setting causes the averaging function to be deactivated. This
means that the FCU waits as long as you wish for flow.

Performing maintenance
Carry out the specified configuration, maintenance and inspection work every
six months or, at the latest, when an error message or malfunction makes it
necessary.
All operating media are to be protected in case the product is accidentally
started up.
Disconnect the FCU from the power supply when performing any
maintenance, inspection or repair work.
Once maintenance work is complete, check that the FCU is still working
properly.
Any screwed fittings which have been undone/removed are to be checked to
see that they have been properly resecured.
FCUcleaning
Clean the control panel with a clean, moist cloth. Do not use any chemical
cleaning agents, as these may damage the film attached to the surface of the
FCU. Clean the outside of the FCU with a moist cloth.
Changing the FCU filter element

The FCU has an internal filter element with a differential pressure switch. The
differential pressure switch switches at 2 bar. The message "Filter clogged"
will appear on the display. Ensure that the flow rate control valve is not
closed.
If the filter is contaminated, but the differential pressure of 2 bar cannot be
achieved (e.g. with an inlet pressure <2 bar), then there will be no indication
on the display. Only the message "Flow error" will appear in such cases.
To change the filter, proceed as follows:
1. Put a suitable drip tray in place to catch
the oil (approx. 0.5 l).
Turn the FCU so that the rear side faces
upwards. Ensure that the flow rate control
valve is not damaged.
FCU 2000-4 series en(us) 89 / 120

2. Unscrew the screw plug with a size 19

ring spanner by turning it
counterclockwise.
3. Pull the filter element out upwards by the

strap.
4. Take the strap out of the old filter

elements and push this over the new filter
element.
Dispose of the old filter element correctly
according to local regulations and
guidelines.
5. Moisten the O-ring on the new filter

element slightly with fluid.
FCU 2000-4 series en(us) 90 / 120

6. Place the new filter element with the strap

into the FCU.
Press the filter element down into the filter
mount.
Do not use excessive force or a hammer,
etc.
7. Check the screw plug O-ring for damage.

Replace it if necessary.
8. Insert and manually screw in the screw

plug clockwise.
Tighten the screw plug with a size 19 ring
spanner.
9. The filter element change is now

complete.
Back-flushing FCU
If the sensor is blocked in the FCU, use the flushing set available as an
accessory for back-flushing. The part no. can be found in the accessories list.

Appendix
Explanation of the measuring technology terms used

Single This refers to the analysis of the contamination of a
measurement: specified sample quantity (measurement volume). The
result of a single measurement is the measured value.
Measuring point: The name of the location at which the FCU is
connected to the hydraulic system. This designation
(max. 20 characters) can be entered in the FCU for
documentation purposes.
Example: pump press W3
Measurement Sample quantity which is analyzed for determining a
volume: measured value.(The measurement volume can be set
by the user)
Measured value The contamination codes determined by a single
measurement, shown as a three-digit ISO code or NAS
codes or SAE codes of the individual particle size
channels.
Measurement: After the "OK/START" - key is pressed, a single
measurement begins, followed immediately upon
completion by the next single measurement until the
"STOP" - key is pressed (MODE M1, M2, M4) or the
target cleanliness (MODE M3) is reached.
This series of single measurements is referred to as a
measurement for convenience reasons.
Log: A measurement is described by a log. It is comprised of
the log header and the log lines. The FCU saves up to
100 logs.
FCU 2000-4 series en(us) 103 / 120

Appendix
Overview - ISO 4406 / SAE AS 4059 and NAS 1638 classes

ISO 4406:1999
In ISO 4406:1999, particle counts are determined cumulatively, i.e. > 4 µm(c),
>6 µm(c) and >14 µm(c) (manually by filtering the fluid through an analysis
membrane or automatically using particle counters) and allocated to
measurement references.
The goal of allocating particle counts to references is to facilitate the
assessment of fluid cleanliness ratings.
In 1999 the "old" ISO 4406:1987 was revised and the size ranges of the
particle sizes undergoing analysis redefined. The counting method and
calibration were also changed.
This is important for the user in his everyday work: even though the
measurement references of the particles undergoing analysis have changed,
the cleanliness code will change only in individual cases. When drafting the
"new" ISO 4406:1999 it was ensured that not all the existing cleanliness
provisions for systems had to be changed.
ISO 4406 table

SAE AS 4059
Like ISO 4406, SAE describes AS 4059 particle concentrations in fluids. The
analysis methods can be applied in the same manner as ISO 4406:1999.
The SAE cleanliness classes are based on particle size, number and
distribution. The particle size determined depends on the measurement
process and calibration; consequently the particle sizes are labeled with
letters (A-F).
The following table shows the cleanliness classes in relation to the particle
concentration determined:

Appendix
NAS 1638
Like ISO 4406, NAS 1638 describes particle concentrations in fluids. The
analysis methods can be applied in the same manner as ISO 4406:1999.
In contrast to ISO 4406, certain particle ranges are counted in NAS 1638 and
attributed to key figures.
The following table shows the cleanliness classes in relation to the particle
concentration determined:
Maximum particle count / 100 ml
2…5 5…15 15…25 25…50 50…100 > 100
