OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS RH 400

Inspection and servicing

Withdraw plate assembly (12, Fig. 3-26:) from rotor (13).

The plates may have sharp edges.

Cleaning the centrifuge

Check the inside of the rotor housing. Remove any dirt deposits without damaging the surface of the rotor housing. If necessary, clean all centrifuge parts in diesel fuel. Remove all residual dirt particles with compressed air or an air/water pistol.

Adhering dirt unbalances the rotor and may damage the bearings.

Assembling the centrifuge

The plates (16, Fig. 22) have 4 possible opposing positions.

Fig. 3-26:

Remove clip (14, Fig. 3-27:) and distributor plate (15).

Remove plates (16) and end plate (17) from distributor (18) .

Place paper filter into the rotor cap (4, Fig. 3-26:):

Assembly is done in the reverse sequence to dismantling.

Run engines at idling speed for a short time and check centrifuge for leaks.

Shut off engines.

Check oil level after ca. 10 minutes; top up if necessary.

Read and observe: "Inspection and servicing - Safety instructions".

Secure the machine as described in the "Securing the machine" section.

Shut off the engines and allow to cool down.

Risk of scalding from hot cooling liquid.

Collect escaping cooling liquid and discard without polluting the environment.

Protect the skin from contact with cooling liquid.

Skin contact with cooling liquid is a potential health hazard.

Wear protective gloves and firm working clothing.

The cooling liquid circuit is controlled by a thermostat. The max. admissible temperature is ca. 100° C. In case of higher temperatures, the BCS displays a warning on the screen (Fig. 3-28:).

Radiators

The radiators are located on the superstructure in the counterweight module.

Weekly checks: Check radiator fins for dirt and clean, if required..
