The TriOS Wiper W55 V2 provides an additional cleaning option for all TriOS photometers with path lengths
up to 10 mm. The wiper housing can be mounted on the sensor in just a few steps and provides reliable
cleaning of the measurement windows. The new magnetic axis lock allows quick and easy wiper blade re-
placement, without any tools.
The new version of the wiper now features blockage detection and removal, and a service mode that increas-
es the life of the wiper through regular use. The accessory can also be used in seawater up to a depth of 10m.

Wiper W55 V2 // Quick Guide
1. First place the wiper blade on the axis. To do this, push the wiper blade onto the axis until you hear a click.
2. Slightly grease the O-ring on the axis and insert the axis into the spring in the wiper housing. The axis
groove is magnetically tightened and must be inserted as far as it will go and, if necessary, turned slightly
until the correct position engages.
Wiper blades and axis must always be selected to match the path length of the
sensor, otherwise the measuring windows may be damaged.
NOTICE
The wiper axis is not seated correctly until the O-ring is no longer visible and the
axis can no longer rotate.
NOTICE
Never immerse the wiper in water without the axis installed! Since no other seal
is installed, unrepairable damage will occur which is not covered by the warranty.

Wiper W55 V2 // Quick Guide
If the wiper gets stuck in the light path or is jammed by an object, we recommend removing the wiper com-
pletely from the sensor to prevent damage to the transmission. To do this, loosen the four screws on the wiper
housing and remove the wiper from the sensor.
Alternatively, only the axis can be pulled out. It is held magnetically and can simply be pulled out in the direc-
tion of the axis. Please remember to remove the wiper blade beforehand.
It is recommended to replace the O-ring and axis every 5-6 months.
1. Remove the axis with the wiper and the sealing ring.
2. Slightly grease the O-ring of the new axis and attach the new wiper blade.
3. Insert the new axis with wiper blade and O-ring into the spring in the wiper housing. The axis groove is
magnetically tightened and must be inserted as far as it will go and, if necessary, turned slightly until the
correct position engages.
3 Change housing seal (O-ring) and axis
4 Installation on the sensor
1. Place the lower housing of the wiper against the sensor and align it with the screw hole. Now tighten the
positioning screw.

3. To change the wiper blade, it can be easily removed by lifting the upper part of the cover slightly and
pulling off the blade.
External mechanical loads, such as turning the wiper or the axis by hand, can
damage the gear unit!
NOTICE
Attention, the axis is held magnetically and must be pulled out in the direction of
the axis. Do not attempt to unscrew the axis under any circumstances.
Please make absolutely sure that there is an O-ring on the adjustment screw.

2. Place the upper part of the wiper housing on top and fasten with the four screws. At first only screw the
screws in very slightly and then tighten them one by one in a symmetrical order.

Wiper W55 V2 // Quick Guide
If the wiper is connected using the supplied M8 connection cable (see option 1), the cleaning process is au-
tomatically started after the supply voltage of 12 – 24 VDC has been applied. This lasts approx. 2-3 seconds
(two wiping cycles) – then the wiper stops in the parking position. For further wiping operations, the power
supply must be interrupted for at least one second and then reconnected.
IMPORTANT: The supply voltage must remain switched on until the end of the wiping process (reaching the
parking position), otherwise the wiper may stop at an undened point. In the worst case, it then covers the
light path and faulty measurements occur!
For an alternative connection where power supply and cleaning control (triggering) are separate, the open
end of the M8 line can be disconnected (see option 2). Remove the twin ferrules and equip the individual
cores with single ferrules. Now the wiper can be connected to a suitable DC voltage source according to the
connection diagram shown in the Option 2 gure. The trigger line in turn can be connected to a controller
which controls the cleaning cycle. The wiping process is started by a voltage signal (5 – 24 V; min. duration:
100 ms) on the trigger line. Here, too, two wiping cycles are carried out, which require approx. 2-3 seconds.
A new wiping process can then be started by re-triggering (pause between the intervals ≥ 1 second).
IMPORTANT: Even with this circuit option, it must be ensured that the supply voltage remains switched on
during the wiping process!
Option 1: M8 connection cable with open end, trigger is connected parallel to the supply voltage (included in
delivery).
Option 2: M8 connection cable with open end, trigger and power supply are separate.

8 Blocking detection
After three wiping processes, the wiper blade always returns to the starting position. At the beginning of
each process, the position is briey checked. If the optical path is blocked, this is detected by the wiper and
it attempts to loosen the interfering component with very short wiping movements. If this is unsuccessful, the
wiper blade can also be removed when dry and the axle can be pulled out individually to manually unblock it.
The service mode is the new feature of the W55 V2 wiper. The service mode is activated by the supplied
magnet and ve full rotations in both directions are performed. This adjusts the home position and lubricates
the planetary gear in all directions. It is recommended to remove the upper wiper housing from the sensor rst
before activating the service mode to avoid damage to the measuring windows and to ensure free rotation.
To increase the life of the wiper, it is recommended to perform this function 1x per month.
To activate the service mode, hold the supplied magnet against the housing in the area of the „S“ mark. Move
the magnet slightly around the mark to hit the activation point. Once Service Mode is activated, the axis with
the wiper blade will begin full rotations.
The Service Mode should never be activated with the wiper protection cage
mounted, otherwise damage to the wiper will occur.
NOTICE
Attention, the axis is held magnetically and must be pulled out in the direction of
the axis. Do not attempt to unscrew the axis under any circumstances!

Wiper protective cage
00P100010
Size L x Ø 220 mm x 88 mm
Weight ~ 0.5 kg
Material POM
Technical Specications
The sturdy plastic (POM) protective cage has been designed to keep coarse dirt and larger objects away
from the wiper, thus protecting it from damage. However, the recesses allow the measuring medium to reach
the optical path of the sensor unhindered. The measured values are therefore not inuenced by unwanted
contamination.

8 Installation of the protective cage on the sensor
1. The wiper must be correctly installed before mounting the cage on the sensor (see page 2 to 4).
2. Push the protective cage with the opening in the direction of the wiper and align it with the wiper shaft.
The sensor must be inserted in the middle of the holder provided inside the protective cage.
3. If the protective cage is correctly fitted, it must be finally fixed to the sensor with an Allen key (5 mm).

9 Mounting the compressed air purge on the wiper
1. The adjustment screw needs to be fixed to the lower housing for mounting the compressed air purge.
Spare part no.: 10P000000
2. Moreover, the compressed air fitting needs to be inserted into the rear housing to connect a compressed
air tube.
3. The compressed air purge system is now operational and the compressed air is lead to the optical path
via the wiper.
Please make absolutely sure that there is an O-ring on the adjustment screw.
