Hazards Posed by Using the FES
The Fluid Sampling Set FES is made up of individual components which are
designed and constructed in accordance with the technical state of the art and
recognized safety rules and regulations. Nevertheless, their usage can still
endanger the operator or third parties. In addition, the Fluid Sampling Set may be
damaged during transport or by improper handling. The Fluid Sampling Set is to be
used only as follows:
for the specified correct usage.
Only when in safe, perfect condition.
Faults which could affect safety must be rectified immediately.
Proper/Designated Use
The Fluid Sampling Set FES is a combination of units developed to analyze the
solid particle contamination of mineral oils. Any use extending beyond or deviating
therefrom shall not be considered intended use. HYDAC Filtertechnik GmbH will not
assume any liability for any damage resulting from such use.
Informal Safety Precautions
Always keep the operating instructions in the vicinity of the Fluid Sampling Set. In
addition to the manual, the general and local regulations concerning accident
prevention and protection of the environment should be available and observed.
Keep the safety and hazard symbols and warnings on the Fluid Sampling Set in a
legible condition.
Modifications on the FES
Do not carry out any alterations, conversions or additions to components of the FES
without the written consent of All component modifications required the written
confirmation of HYDAC Filtertechnik GmbH. Immediately replace components that
are not in perfect condition. Use only original spare parts (OEM). When using non-
OEM components it cannot be ensured that they have been designed and
manufactured so as to comply with loading and safety requirements. (Also see
chapter on Maintenance)
Cleaning the FES
Maintain the highest level of cleanliness during all work with the Fluid Sampling Set.
Every particle that enters the sample or solvent due to contamination will be isolated
on the filter membrane and distort the results. (See chapter 0.)

Fluid Sampling Set properties
Compliance with and regular monitoring of the particle load in fluid and lubrication
technology is essential for efficient, economical system use.
Static and dynamic sampling for later fluid analysis can be carried out using very
simple means with the Fluid Sampling Set FES.
NOTE
The FluidAnalysis Set may only be used with mineral oils.
Contact us prior to using with other operating fluids.
Source of oil contamination
Contamination of hydraulic media is classified according to the particular physical
state:
Solid
Gaseous
and liquid contamination.
Solid particles enter the hydraulic system because the unit is inadequately sealed,
through maintenance work or new oil, for example. Once present, these particles
produce new ones, leading to a "chain reaction of wear".
Gaseous contamination often results from leakage on the suction side of hydraulic
pumps, poor return flow of the medium to the tank or when pipelines must be
opened (e.g. for maintenance work).
Hydraulic media water contamination can either be caused by condensation or
penetration. The condensation of water is caused by temperature differences in the
hydraulic reservoir. Water can enter through faulty cooler hoses, faulty seals or a
leaky reservoir. Water-absorbent filter elements (filter fineness 3 ... 40 µm) can also
be used for the removal of free water.
