Operating and Maintenance Instruction FCU 8000-1 series
9 Maintenance and service
9.1 Filter element
Description
The FCU is fitted with a differential pressure switch to indicate when the filter is clogged.
In order for this to function the flow control valve must not be shut-off, and therefore a flow
is shown in the display. Now the differential pressure switch can switch at a differential
pressure of 2 bar, and the message "Filter clogged" appears in the display. As soon as
this message appears, the filter element must be changed.
Exception
If the filter is clogged, but a differential pressure of 2 bar is not reached, then no message
will appear in the display. In this case, a message indicating flow error will appear.
