2.1 Principle
During the separation process, sludge and
water accumulate at the periphery of the
separator bowl. Oil
Sludge and
water
P 00 35 6B A
Sludge and water are discharged at preset time
intervals. During discharge, the oil inlet is
closed.
P 00 35 6C A
Excessive water can also be drained from the
separator bowl between discharges.
The cleaned oil leaving the separator is tested

for traces of water. Any increase in water is MT
detected by the water transducer. Disc stack
Water
transducer
Water
P0 03 56 DA
The signal from the water transducer is

continuously transmitted to the control unit, in Controller
which a reference value is stored. The control
unit compares the transducer signal with the
reference value. A significant deviation from MT
the reference value will cause draining of water.

2.2 Process Cycle Start
First the oil pump, separator, and heater are

started. Controller

Valid for Purifiers (not Alcap or Clarifiers)
Purifiers have no automatic indication if the bowl
is clogged or filled with too much solids.
Recommendation is to check each Bunker
analyze report and determine if there is any risk
for a higher than normal sludge production.
The time between each sludge discharge should
then be reduced accordingly.
From time to time , and especially when a new

Bunker is introduced ,it is advisable to do as
follows :
- Introduce water into the bowl by open

manually the SV10 solenoid valve , on the
Operating Water Block.
- Check that this water is coming out from the
bowl by unscrewing the Inspection Plug on
the sludge pipe.
Please however ,make sure that the
machine is not about to make a discharge!

1.13 Heater Control (optional)

The temperature in the feed inlet is normally
supervised via TT1, and can be controlled by
a heater via TT2. Supervision and control are
active even if one of the sensors is disabled.
TT2 can be used by the customer; no alarm is
given. TT2 is disabled in this case.
The heater is controlled according to

temperature setpoint P249 using a PI-regulator
with output:
Y(k) = Y(k+1) + P + l
where the proportional part
P = Kp *(e(k) - e(k-1) )
and integral part
l = Ki * e(k) / Ti
The error e = SetValue - ActualValue, is the

difference between the desired value (P249)
and the actual value (reading on TT) where
k = point of time
The tuning of the regulator is done by modifying

the amplification
Kp = Ki = 100/P123 (P123 is known as the
proportional band width) and integral time Ti =
P124.
Every second a new output Y is calculated, i.e.

the interval between each k is 1s.
With P119 it is possible to select heater control

mode:
no (no heater controlled)

electric (electric heater controlled, P120
active)
steam (steam heater controlled, P121
active)
external (start/stop request via
programmable output, heater not controlled)
Cold start function
If the viscosity of the oil is high (low
temperature), a faster start-up of the heater
might be favourable (a higher Kp). The
temperature, up to which the cold-start gain
factor P126 is active, is set in P125. Above this
temperature the normal P-band P123 is used.
38
79
1 Operating
Example: P123 = 30, P126 = 40 results in

a P-band of 0.40 x 30 = 12 as long as the
temperature is below P125.

1 Operating
1.13.1 Control of the electric

heater (optional)
P119 = electric. The following parameters
should not be displayed in the parameter list:
P121, P122.
Five outputs and one input are used to control

the electric heater:
three relay outputs to up to three fixed power

steps depending on the heater size (P120)
one variable load output
one output "heater on"
one input "heater fault" (see A05)
The total heater capacity (100%) is the sum of
the power available at the three fixed steps, plus
the power available via the variable load output
(always 16 kW nominal).
This means, if the output signal to the heater is

100%, all available power steps and the variable
load output have to be activated continuously.
Output signal 0% means that all outputs are

deactivated.
If the output signal is a value between 0 and

100%, the activation pattern of the outputs has
to be calculated using the table below.
Output power (in % of the total available power)

Heater size (kW Power step 1 Power step 2 Power step 3 Variable load
nominal, selected % % % output
with P120) %
7, 8 0 0 0 10 x 10
14, 16 0 0 0 10 x 10
22, 24 33,5 0 0 10 x 6,6
36, 40 20 40 0 10 x 4
50, 56 14,3 28,5 28,5 10 x 2,9
65, 72 11 22 45 10 x 2,2
100 14,3 28,5 28,5 10 x 2,9
130 11 22 45 10 x 2,2
For each value of P120 the contribution of each

power step to the total available heater capacity
is given in percent. First use the fixed power
steps to fill the power requirement as far as
possible, then use the variable load output to
fine adjust the output.
40
81
1 Operating
NOTE
It is important that the fixed power steps are working

continuously when activated. Use an established
method e.g. delay drop out.
As a new output signal is calculated every

second, the variable load output is activated for
parts (0.1) of a second.
0.1 s activates 1/10 of the available power on

the output = 1.6 kW.
0.5 s means 8 kW and so on.
Example 1: Heater size 72 kW and output signal

to the heater 50%. Activate step 3 (for 1s) and
activate variable. output for 0.2s.
Example 2: Heater size 16 kW and output signal

to the heater 88%. Activate variable output for
0.9s.
Example 3: Heater size 130 kW and output

signal to heater 88%. Activate steps 1, 2, and
3 (for 1s).
To prevent problems with too heavy momentary

load at start of the heater, only one output
can be activated per second during the first 6
seconds. After that time all outputs can be used
simultaneously.
1.13.2 Control of the CBM heater

(optional)
P119 = steam. In this case alarm A05 is not
supervised.
The steam heater is controlled using three relay

outputs:
increment steam valve

decrement steam valve
steam shut-off valve (hold signal)
The position of the valve is not supervised.
The transition time of the steam valve is set in

P121 (time from fully open to fully closed position
and vice versa). The controller function defines
if the valve should be opened (incremented) or
closed(decremented) in relation to its actual
position.
41
82
1 Operating
The signal to the steam valve is pulsed with

an on-time corresponding to the temperature
controller output. Example: output = +50%
means the increment steam valve output is
activated for 0.50 s/s.
When the heater is stopped, the decrement

steam valve signal is on for the time set in P121.
The hold signal is off if the start of the heater is
interlocked (e.g. on alarms A01, A20).
1.13.3 If heater not controlled or

external
It is possible to run the system without heater
control (P119 = no).
In this case alarms A05, A24 and A25 are not

supervised.
It is also possible to run the system with external

heater (P119 = external). The heater on signal
is given via a programmable output.
In this case alarm A05 is not supervised.
The description for the system with external

heater is also valid if one of the temperature
sensors is disabled or on sensor error
(A22/A30).
1.13.4 Heater shut down

The system waits for the feed temperature to
decrease (5 degrees or below P184). If the
time in P173 has elapsed and the temperature
feedback was not received, alarm A25
Temperature not decreasing is given.
When the temperature feedback has been

received, or P173 has elapsed, P256 is started.
When P256 has elapsed, the feed pump (if
running) is turned off. If the feedback signal
from the pump contactor is not received within
5 seconds, alarm A01 Pump starter failure is
given.
NOTE
Heater shutdown is also initiated at STOP request

during START if feed pump and heater are on but the
separator is not running.

1.14 Cross connection/serial operation

Valid for P-type separators
It might be desirable to cross-connect two

separator modules, or operate them in series.
For that purpose the EPC60:s must be able to
communicate via Ethernet.
1.14.1 Set up communication

The EPC60:s may communicate over any
customer defined network or be connected
directly to each other 1) .
The IP-addresses of the EPC60:s must be set

so there are no IP-conflict since all EPC60:s
are normally delivered with the same default
address, e.g. set one EPC60 to have address
192.168.0.1 and the other to have address
192.168.0.2.
1)Direct connection requires a crossover twisted
pair cable to be used since the EPC60 does not
have automatic MDI/MDI-X configuration.
1.14.2 Configure parameters

The parameter to select desired function is
P145.
The following values are possible:
disabled (default)
cross master
cross slave
serial master
serial slave
The adjustment of P145 is only possible, if both
systems are in STAND STILL.
The communication between the two control

systems is supervised. At communication error
an alarm (A136) is given and both systems will
go to STOP if running.

1.14.3 Cross connection

One separator module can use the feed pump
and heater of the other one.
P145 is set to cross master in the system

which separator is used. The heater/feed
pump of this system is automatically
disabled. The display shows CROSS
CONNECTION MASTER in STANDSTILL.
P145 is set to cross slave in the system
which heater/feed pump is used. The
separator of this system is automatically
disabled. The display shows CROSS
CONNECTION SLAVE.
After adjustment of P145, only stepwise local
start from resp. panel is possible.
The separator is started/stopped and the

separator system is supervised from the master
panel as if heater and feed pump were not
installed. Temperature readings from the master
are transferred to the slave panel.
Heater and feed pump are started/stopped and

controlled from the slave panel. Alarms for the
heater and feed pump are generated in the
slave panel.
1.14.4 Serial operation

This function is required when two separators
should operate in series, i.e. the oil coming from
the first separator (usually a purifier) is further
purified in the second one (usually a clarifier,
but may be a purifier).
P145 is set to serial master in the first

system. The display shows SERIAL
CONNECTION MASTER in STANDSTILL.
P145 is set to serial slave in the second
system. The display shows SERIAL
CONNECTION SLAVE in STAND STILL.
After adjustment of P145, both systems are
started individually. The discharge interval is
set with P220 in the master system. The slave's
automatic discharge initiation is disabled.
Instead the master initiates a discharge in the
slave system every (P262) time after the own
discharge has been completed.

1.17 Operation without all sensors (Emergency

operation)
If a sensor is malfunctioning it is possible to
disable it temporarily until it can be fixed or
replaced.
1.17.1 System Without Speed

Sensor
It is possible to run the system without speed
sensor (P113 = no).
In this case system control and supervision are

much more basic.
Alarms A90 A97 are not supervised.
Remote start is not allowed.
The separator is started within 4 minutes and

stopped with stop timer.
This also applies if the speed sensor is disabled

(P148 = 0) or on alarm A92, Bowl speed sensor
error.
1.17.2 System Without Vibration

Sensor
It is possible to run the system without vibration
sensor (P114 = no).
In this case alarms A100 A103 are not

supervised.
This also applies if the vibration sensor is

disabled (P132 = yes) or on alarm A102,
Vibration sensor error
1.17.3 System Without Cover

Switch
It is possible to run the system without cover
switch (P115 = no).
In this case alarms A110 A111 are not

supervised.
51
92
1 Operating
This also applies if the cover switch is disabled

(P116 = yes).
1.17.4 System With PT1 Disabled

It is possible to run the system with PT1 disabled
(P157 = 0).
In this case alarms A40 A42 and A44 are not

supervised.
This also applies on alarm A42, Feed pressure

sensor PT1 error.

(P153 = 0).
In this case alarms A50 A52 and A54 A59

are not supervised.
As a result, calibration of the water flow is

not possible. The old values are used for
displacement and conditioning water. Cold
start function is disabled. Bowl leakage test is
disabled.
This also applies on alarm A52, Oil pressure

sensor PT4 error.

(S-separator only)
(P155 = 0).
In this case alarms A70 A72 and A74 are not

supervised.
This also applies on alarm A72, Water pressure

sensor PT5 error.

1.17.7 System With TT1/TT2

Disabled
It is possible to disable one of the temperature
sensors TT1 or TT2 with parameter P146.
The readings normally taken from the disabled
sensor is then replaced with the readings from
the other sensor in all sequences.
When a temperature transmitter is disabled the

corresponding sensor error alarm, A22 or A31,
is blocked.
Alarms A20, A21, A24 & A25 that normally are

triggered by TT1 readings should be triggered
by TT2 when TT1 is disabled.
When the system has a Modbus connection

(P129=Modbus TCP or Modbus RTU) it is
possible to use Modbus registers to receive
temperature readings. Both TT1 and TT2
are then disabled and alarms A22, A23, A30
& A31 are blocked. This mode is activated
when P146=Modbus. It is not possible select
this mode if the system is controlling a heater
(P119=steam or electric).
If P146=TT2 custom then all alarm from TT2 is

blocked. It is intended for installations where
TT2 is permanently not connected to the
EPC60.
1.17.8 Control of Sludge Pump,

Level in Sludge Tank, and
Butterfly Valve
The sludge accumulated in the bowl can be
discharged into an optional small sludge tank
with level switch. At high level signal a sludge
pump (P118 = yes) is running until the signal
is normal + 10 seconds . Otherwise see alarm
A120.
The level switch can be disabled (P159 = 0). In

this case A120 is blocked and the sludge pump
is running for 30 seconds at discharge (instead
of P234, see below).
The sludge pump is also activated during

certain timers. These running times are always
terminated by an extra pump running time
(e.g. during P234, or 5 seconds as in the
drain sequence). Note that this extra time is
independent of the other timers which may be
running simultaneously.
53
94
1 Operating
See also the Sequence diagram for other

occasions when the sludge pump is activated,
if selected (Parameter List chapter 2.2
Discharge) .
The separator sludge outlet can contain a

manual butterfly valve which is used to close the
outlet when the separator is standing still.
Select with P131 (no, manual).
If P131 = no, alarm A122 is blocked.
1.17.9 System Without Feed Pump

It is possible to run the system without feed
pump (P127 = no).
In this case alarms A01 and A44 are not

supervised.
54
95
1 Operating
1.17.10 System Without Water

Transducer (S-separator
only)
It is possible to run the system without water
transducer (P117 = no).
In this case alarms A80 - A85 and A74 are not

supervised.
There is no calibration of the water flow. In

separation, automatic discharges are initiated
every 15 minutes (overrides P220). SV10 is
never activated (this means no displacement
before discharge and no conditioning water).
Water draining from the bowl is not allowed.
This also applies if the water transducer is

disabled (P128 = standby) or on alarm A85,
MT60 fault.

2 Operation Modes
2.1 Change-over Sequence

This sequence is run through when the
system changes operation mode from
RECIRCULATION to SEPARATION after start
(supervision similar as in RECIRCULATION).
This transition phase may include calibration

of the water flow via SV10, if the operator
answers yes to all three questions during
the start-sequence (see Manual Start from
Standstill in the Operating instructions manual).
If no to first or third question, the previously
calculated filling time (P233) is used.
2.1.1 Change-over without

calibration
A discharge sequence (step 2) and bowl
leakage/water transducer test (step 3) is run
through (see 2.2 Discharge, page XX).
The opening time of SV15 is in this case set

with P244 (not P231). Finally the system ends
up in SEPARATION.
2.1.2 Calibration of the water flow

via SV10
During 170 seconds, the oil outlet valve V4 is
closed and the bowl is filled with water through
SV10 until the pressure on PT4 has increased
by 0.2 bar.
The conditioning water flow rate is then

calculated as the known bowl volume divided by
the time needed to fill the bowl.
If the feedback signal from PT4 was not received

until 170 seconds has elapsed, the alarm A55
No PT4 pressure feedback at conditioning water
calibration is given. The bowl is emptied (P231,
P232, P243) and the calibration is repeated
when the alarm has been acknowledged.
15
111
2 Operation Modes
Test of calibration
The calibration is repeated at every (P242)
discharge. The measured time to fill the bowl
is then compared with the saved time used to
calculate the SV10 flow rate (the old value is
not changed).
If the time to fill the bowl has decreased

with the relative value in P160, the alarm A131
Sludge in bowl is given and the system goes to
STOP. Restart is not possible.
16
112
2 Operation Modes
2.2 Discharge
During discharge three different sequences are
run through:
displacement sequence (step 1)

discharge sequence (step 2)
bowl leakage/water transducer test (step 3)
The following diagram shows the equipment

which is activated during the sequences, the
activation pattern and the corresponding timers.
Sequence Diagram
If a combination of low PT4 pressure (P154) and low speed (P180) is detected when the feed is
on, the system will go to STOP immediately without waiting the time in P238. Alarm A57 Oil

1 Technical Data
1.1 Demand Specifications Water

Alfa Laval ref. 574487 Rev. 1
Poor quality of the operating water may with time cause erosion, corrosion and/or operating problems.
The water shall be treated to meet certain demands.
The following requirements are important:

1. Turbidity-free water, solids content <0,001% by volume
Max. particle size 50 m.
Deposits shall not be allowed to form in certain areas in the system.
2. Total hardness less than 180 mg CaCO3 per litre, which corresponds to 10 dH or 12,5 E.
Hard water may with time form deposits in the operating mechanism. The precipitation rate is
accelerated with increased operating temperature and low discharge frequency. These effects
become more severe the harder the water is
3. Chloride content max. 1 00 ppm NaCl (equivalent to 60 mg Cl/l). Chloride ions contribute to
corrosion on surfaces in contact with the operating water. Corrosion is a process that is accelerated
by increased separating temperature, low pH, and high chloride ion concentration.
4. 6,5 < pH < 9
Bicarbonate content (HCO3) min. 70mg HCO3 per litre, which corresponds to 3,2 dKH.
5. Pressure 200 800 kPa (2 8 bar).

NOTE
Alfa Laval accepts no liability for consequences

arising from unsatisfactorily purified operating water
supplied by the customer.

8. Establish system pressures.The delivery height pressure
is the pressure in the oil pipe work down stream from the
separation module, due to the pipe bends and the height
(head) to the cleaned oil tank. If the cleaned oil tank is below
the separation module the delivery height pressure may be
very low. The oil paring disc pressure will have to be greater
than the delivery height pressure for any oil to flow.
Proceed as follows:
Ensure the valves in the oil system are in the correct
positions.
The oil should be at separation temperature.
For S-type separators:
The paring tube should be able to move freely.

The centrifuge includes parts that rotate at high
speed. This means that:
Kinetic energy is high

Great forces are generated
Stopping time is long
Manufacturing tolerances are extremely fine. G0010421
Rotating parts are carefully balanced to

reduce undesired vibrations that can cause
a breakdown. Material properties have been
considered carefully during design to withstand
stress and fatigue.
The separator is designed and supplied for a

specific separation duty (type of liquid, rotational
speed, temperature, density etc.) and must not
be used for any other purpose.
Incorrect operation and maintenance can result

in unbalance due to build-up of sediment,
reduction of material strength, etc., that
subsequently could lead to serious damage
and/or injury.
The following basic safety instructions therefore

apply:
Use the separator only for the purpose

and parameter range specified by Alfa
Laval. Applies not only to the process
but also to cleaning and service liquids.
Strictly follow the instructions for

3 Basic principles of separation
3.1 Introduction
The purpose of separation can be:
to free a liquid of solid particles,

to separate two mutually insoluble liquids
with different densities while removing any
solids presents at the same time,
to separate and concentrate solid particles
from a liquid.
3.2 Separation by gravity

A liquid mixture in a stationary bowl will clear
slowly as the heavy particles in the liquid mixture
sink to the bottom under the influence of gravity.
A lighter liquid rises while a heavier liquid and

solids sink.
G0870111
Continuous separation and sedimentation can

be achieved in a settling tank having inlet and
outlet arranged according to the illustration.
Heavier particles in the liquid mixture will settle C

and form a sediment layer on the tank bottom.

3.3 Centrifugal separation

In a rapidly rotating bowl, the force of gravity
is replaced by centrifugal force, which can be
thousands of times greater. A
B
Separation and sedimentation is continuous and
happens very quickly.
The centrifugal force in the separator bowl can

achieve in a few seconds what takes many
hours in a tank under influence of gravity.
The separation efficiency is influenced

by changes in the viscosity, separating
temperatures and in throughput. C

B. Heavier liquid
C. Centrifugal force
3.4 Separating temperatures

For some types of process liquids a high
separating temperature will normally increase
the separation capacity. The temperature
influences viscosity and density and should be
kept constant throughout the separation.
Viscosity Density difference

Viscosity is a fluids resistance against movement. Density is mass per volume unit. The greater the
Low viscosity facilitates separation. Viscosity can density difference between the two liquids, the
be reduced by heating. easier the separation. The density difference can
be increased by heating.

4.1 Overview
The separator comprises a process section and
a drive section powered by an electric motor.
The separator frame comprises a lower body

and a frame hood. The motor is attached to the
frame. The frame feet dampen vibration.
The bottom part of the separator contains a flat

belt transmission, a centrifugal clutch and a
vertical spindle. The lower body also contains
an oil sump for lubrication of spindle bearings.
The frame hood contains the processing parts

of the separator; the inlets, outlets and piping.
The process liquid is cleaned in the separator

bowl. The bowl is fitted on the upper part of a
vertical spindle and rotates at high speed inside
the frame hood. The bowl also contains the
discharge mechanism which empties the sludge
during operation.
A speed sensor, and the optional unbalance

sensor and lock switch, are parts of the
equipment for monitoring the separator
functions.
22
235
4.2 Drive section

The separator bowl is driven by an electric
motor via a belt transmission. The belt pulley on
the motor shaft includes a centrifugal clutch.
The centrifugal clutch (2) with friction pads

ensures a gentle start and smooth acceleration,
and at the same time prevents overloading of
the belt and motor.
To reduce bearing wear and the transmission

of bowl vibrations to the frame and foundation,
the top bearing of the bowl spindle is mounted
in a spring dampened bearing seat (3). The
bearings on the spindle are lubricated by the
oil spray produced by an oil mist generator (4)
mounted on the lower end of the spindle.
The flat belt (1) transmission has a ratio

which increases the bowl speed several times
compared with the motor speed.

4.3 Process section

The separation process takes place inside the
rotating separator bowl. The feed and outlet of
process liquid takes place in the in and outlet
unit on top of the separator frame hood.
Inlet and outlet

The inlet and outlet unit consists of the following 1
parts: 2
A connection house for pipe connections. 3

4
A pipe with a paring disc and a paring tube 5
is located inside the connection house. The
pipe has channels for incoming and outgoing 6
process liquid. 7
8
The paring disc and paring tube pump the

cleaned oil and water respectively out of the
9
bowl.
The paring tube can move radially. During

separation it surfs on the liquid surface. It is
balanced by a spring.
Under certain operating conditions, the paring

tube radial position can be locked in place by
two adjustable screws on the connection house.
The paring disc and tube are located inside and

at the top of the separator bowl.
The inlet and outlet device is held together

against the frame hood by a nut on the end of
the inlet pipe. G0886191

Separator bowl
The separator bowl, with its sludge discharge
mechanism, is built-up as follows:
The bowl body and bowl hood are held together

by a lock ring (Centrilock). Inside the bowl are
the distributor and the disc stack. The disc
stack is kept compressed by the bowl hood.
The discharge slide forms a separate bottom
in the bowl body.
14
The upper space between the bowl hood and 13
the top disc forms the water paring chamber 1
and contains the paring tube, which pumps the 12 2
separated water out of the bowl. The oil paring 3
chamber, with its paring disc, is located inside 4
the top of the distributor. From here the cleaned
oil is pumped out of the bowl. 5
6
The sludge space is in the bowl periphery. The
bowl is kept closed by the discharge slide, which 7
seals against a seal ring in the bowl hood.
At fixed intervals, decided by the operator, the

discharge slide drops down to empty the bowl 8

4.5 Separating function

The separator separates water and solids from
the uncleaned oil. Water normally leaves the
separator through the water outlet. During
sludge discharge, solids (sludge) and water are
removed through the discharge ports.
4.5.1 The liquid balance in the

bowl
The liquid levels in the bowl depend on many 1
factors (bowl geometry, liquid densities, flow 2
rates etc.). To get a picture of how the liquids A 3
are distributed in the bowl, imagine that the bowl
is at standstill and turned 90 (only influenced
by gravity). The bowl can now be compared
with a settling tank: 7

4.5.2 Liquid flow

Unseparated oil is fed into the bowl through the
inlet pipe and travels via the distributor towards
the periphery of the bowl.
When the oil reaches slots in the distributor, it

rises through the channels formed by the disc
stack, where it is evenly distributed.
The oil is continuously cleaned as it travels

towards the centre of the bowl. When the
cleaned oil leaves the disc stack, it flows through
a number of holes in the distributor and enters
the oil paring chamber. From here it is pumped
by the oil paring disc, and leaves the bowl
through the oil outlet. Separated water, sludge
and solid particles, which are heavier than the
oil, are forced towards the periphery of the bowl
and collect in the sludge space.
The space between the bowl hood and top disc,

as well as the water paring chamber, is filled
with oil, which is distributed over the entire
circumference via the grooves in the top disc.
During normal operation-, the water drain valve

in the water outlet is closed.
28
241
4.5.3 Discharge of sludge and water (ALCAP concept)

As the sludge space fills up and water enters
the disc stack, traces of water will escape with
the cleaned oil. The increase of water content in
the cleaned oil is the sign of reduced separation
efficiency.
This condition is monitored by the process

control system, and water is removed from the
bowl when maximum levels are recorded.
The water is removed by either of two ways:

The water drain valve opens and the water
leaves the bowl through the water outlet.
Through the sludge ports at sludge
discharge.
Which way is decided by the process control

system.

6.3 Dismantling
6.3.1 Introduction
The frame hood and heavy bowl parts must be
lifted by means of a hoist. Position the hoist
exactly above the bowl centre. Use a lifting sling
and lifting hooks with safety catches.
The parts must be handled carefully. Dont

place parts directly on the floor, but on a clean
rubber mat, fiberboard or a suitable pallet.
NOTE
For safety reasons, it is essential that all personnel

who work with the separator read this manual
thoroughly and completely. Do not allow personnel to
clean, assemble, operate or maintain the separator
until they have read and fully understood this manual.
Ensure that all personnel who operate and service
the separator are well-trained and knowledgeable
concerning the separator and the work to be carried
out.
6.3.2 Tools
Special tools from the tool kit must be used for
dismantling and assembly, as well as Standard
tools (not included). The special tools are
specified in the Spare Parts Catalogue and are
illustrated at the beginning of each dismantling
section.

lubricating oil.
Great attention must be paid not to contaminate

the lubricating oil. Of particular importance is to
avoid mixing of different types of oil. Even a few
drops of motor oil mixed into a synthetic oil may
result in severe foaming.
Any presence of black deposits in a mineral

type oil is an indication that the oil base has
deteriorated seriously or that some of the oil
additives have precipitated. Always investigate
why black deposits occurs.
If changing from one oil brand to another it is

recommended to do this in connection with an
overhaul of the separator. Clean the oil bath
housing and the spindle parts thoroughly and
remove all deposits before filling the new oil.
NOTE
Always clean and dry parts (also tools) before

lubricants are applied.

8.4 Interface description

8.4.1 Scope
This document gives information, requirements,
and recommendations about operational
procedures and signal processing for safe and
reliable operation of the separator. It is intended
to be used for designing auxiliary equipment
and control systems for the separator.
8.4.2 References
This Interface Description is one complementary
document to the separator. Other such
documents that contain necessary information
and are referred to here are:
Interconnection Diagram
Connection List
Technical Data
Standards referred to are:

EN 418 Safety of machinery - Emergency
stop equipment, functional aspects -
Principles of design
EN 1037 Safety of machinery - Prevention
of unexpected start-up
EN 954-1 Safety of machinery - Safety
related parts of control systems - Part 1
General principles for design.
8.4.3 Definitions
For the purpose of this document, the following
definitions apply:
Synchronous speed: The speed the
machine will attain when it is driven by a
three phase squirrel-cage induction motor
and there is no slip in the motor and the
drive system.
Full speed: The synchronous speed minus
normal slip.
185
398
8.4.4 Goal
To eliminate situations that can cause harm,
i.e. injury, damage to health or property and
unsatisfactory process result are e.g.:
Situation Effect
Unbalance caused by uneven sediment Too high stress on bowl and bearing system
accumulation in the bowl. which might cause harm.
Too high bowl speed. Too high stress on bowl which might cause harm.
Access to moving parts. Can cause injury to person who accidentally
touches these parts.
Insufficient cleaning of separator. Unsatisfactory product quality.
Bowl leakage. Product losses.
Information and instructions given in this

document aim at preventing these situations.
Control and supervision can be more or less

comprehensive depending on the type of used
control equipment. When a simple control unit
is used it would be impossible or too expensive
to include many of the functions specified here
while these functions could be included at nearly
no extra cost when a more advanced control
unit is used. For this reasons functions that
are indispensable or needed for safety reasons
to protect the machine and/or personnel are
denoted with shall while other functions are
denoted with should.
8.4.5 Description of separator

modes
For control purposes the operation of the
separator should be divided into different
modes. The normally used modes are
described below but other modes might exist. It
is assumed that:
The separator is correctly assembled.
All connections are made according to
Connection List, Interconnection Diagram
and Interface Description.
The separator control system is activated.
186

8.4.6 Remote start

This machine may be started from a remote
location under the following conditions;
First start after any kind of service or
manual cleaning must be supervised locally
in order to ensure that no mistakes has
been made during assembly.
The unbalance sensor is mandatory for
remote start.
The installation must include equipment
to prevent unintentional start-up from
remote location when the machine is
disassembled.
The installation must include equipment to
prevent unintentional start of process flow
from remote location when the machine is
not properly connected to the piping.
8.4.7 Handling of connection

interfaces
Electrical connections
701 Separator motor.
The separator is equipped with a 3-phase DOL

- (direct on line) started motor. The separator
can also be started by a Y/D starter, but then
the time in Y-position must be maximized to 5
seconds.
There shall be an emergency stop circuit

designed according to EN 418 and a power
isolation device according to EN 1037.
There shall be a start button close to the

separator that shall be used for first start after
assembly of the separator.
There should be a counter to count number of

running hours.
There should be a current transformer to give

an analogue signal to the control unit about the
motor current.
188
401
740 Speed sensor
A proximity sensor of inductive type according

to Namur standard is giving a number of pulses
per revolution of the bowl (see Connection List).
Signal processing in STARTING:

The separator should be stopped
automatically according to NORMAL STOP
procedure and an alarm should be given
when the accumulated time for acceleration
is longer than the maximum time specified
in Technical Data. An abnormal start time
indicates some malfunction of the separator
equipment and should be investigated.
If the speed exceeds Bowl speed,
synchronous in Technical Data with more
than 5% the separator shall be stopped
automatically by NORMAL STOP and a
high speed alarm shall be given.
The speed monitoring system shall be
checked continuously (e.g. by checking
that pulses are coming). In case of failure
indication the separator shall be stopped
automatically by NORMAL STOP with a
timer controlled stop sequence and an
alarm for speed monitoring system failure
shall be given.
The acceleration should be supervised
to ensure that a certain speed (e.g. 250
r/min.) has been reached within a certain
time (e.g. 30 seconds).
189
402
Signal processing in RUNNING:

If the speed exceeds Bowl speed,
synchronous in Technical Data with more
than 5% for a period longer than 1 minute
or momentarily during maximum 5 seconds
more than 10% the separator shall be
stopped automatically by NORMAL STOP
and a high speed alarm shall be given.
If the speed falls more than 10% below
the synchronous speed for a period longer
than 1 minute or 15% during more than
5 seconds a low speed alarm should
be given. Low speed indicates some
malfunction of the separator equipment and
shall be investigated.
The speed monitoring system shall be
checked continuously (e.g. by checking
that pulses are coming). In case of a failure
indication an alarm for speed monitoring
system failure shall be given. If there is a
risk of too high speed the separator shall
be stopped by NORMAL STOP.
The speed drop during DISCHARGE.
compared to the measured speed
immediately before, should be between
3-8% which will indicate a proper discharge.
Signal processing in STOPPING:

STAND STILL shall be indicated when no
pulses are detected within 30 seconds.
Stopping the separator when alarm for
speed monitoring system failure is active,
shall cause a timer controlled stop. (See
Stop time in 8.2 Technical data on page
182.)
752 Unbalance sensor (optional).
For indication of any abnormal unbalance

and to be able to perform appropriate
countermeasures, the separator has been
equipped with an inductive analogue sensor
monitoring the radial position of the Top bearing
seat on the separator frame. The signal from
the sensor shall be monitored and two alarm
levels according to the vibration alarm levels in
Technical data on page 182 should be set.
The vibration level shall be high for 3 seconds to

generate an alarm. The first level is only used to
generate an alarm while the second level shall
stop the machine.
190
403
The vibration monitor shall include self check

function to be performed at least at initiation of
STARTING.
If vibrations exceed the second alarm level the

separator shall be stopped the quickest way
possible and it shall not been restarted until the
reasons for the unbalance have been found and
measures to remove them have been taken.
If vibrations exceed the second alarm level the

separator shall be stopped automatically by
SAFETY STOP.
If the self check system triggers, an alarm shall

be given and an automatic stop by NORMAL
STOP shall be initiated.
Signal processing in RUNNING:

If vibrations exceed the first alarm level
an alarm should be given. Vibrations of
this magnitude will reduce the expected life
time of the bearings and should therefore
be eliminated.
If vibrations exceed the second alarm
level the separator shall be stopped
automatically by SAFETY STOP.
If the self check system triggers, an alarm
shall be given.
Signal processing in STOPPING:

If the self check system triggers, an alarm
shall be given.
Signal processing in NORMAL STOP:

If vibrations exceed the second level the
system shall turn over automatically to
SAFETY STOP.
760 Cover interlocking switch (optional)

The separator is equipped with a interlocking
switch to detect if the cover is mounted.
Signal processing in STAND STILL:

The circuit is closed when the cover of the
separator is mounted.
The interlocking switch should be
connected in such a way that starting of
the motor is prevented when the separator
cover is not mounted.
191
404
Signal processing in STARTING, RUNNING and

CLEANING:
If the circuit is broken the separator should
be stopped automatically by NORMAL
STOP. This is to minimise the risk of having
access to moving parts.
Fluid connections
Complementary information is given in the
document Connection List.
201 Inlet
Processing in STAND STILL:

Shall be closed.
Processing in STARTING:
Should be closed. Bowl will be open and
empty or closed and filled depending on
if start is done from STAND STILL or
STOPPING.
Processing in RUNNING:
Could be closed or open.
Processing in CLEANING:
A sequence of cleaning liquids should be
fed to the separator. The flow rate should
be as high as possible and preferably not
less than the production flow rate.
Processing in NORMAL STOP or EMERGENCY

STOP:
Could be closed or open but the bowl
should be filled unless the stop is initiated
in STARTING.
Processing in SAFETY STOP:

Could be closed or open but the bowl
shall be filled unless the stop is initiated in
STARTING.
206 Inlet for conditioning and displacement

liquid
According to process
220, 221 and 222 Outlets
Processing in STAND STILL:

Could be closed or open.
Processing in other modes:

Shall be open.
192
405
375 Inlet for discharge and make-up liquid
Processing in all modes:

It is recommended to supervise the
supply pressure. If pressure is too low (see
Connection List), start should be interlocked
and if it happens in PRODUCTION or
CLEANING turn over to STAND BY should
take place.

Below 85 % of synchronous bowl speed no
water supply may be made.
When coming from PRODUCTION a
discharge shall be initiated to remove
sediment from bowl to avoid problems due
to solidification, see Connection List.
Signal processing in PRODUCTION:

Automatic discharges shall be initiated by
timer or ALCAP system.
Signal processing in CLEANING:

Automatic discharges shall be initiated by
timer or CIP-control system.
Signal processing in NORMAL STOP:

Discharges should not be made.
Signal processing in SAFETY STOP and

EMERGENCY STOP:
Discharges should not be made.
193
406
8.5 Demand specification water

Operating water is used in the separator for

several different functions: e.g. to operate the
discharge mechanism, to lubricate and cool
mechanical seals.
Poor quality of the operating water may cause

erosion, corrosion and/or operating problem in
the separator and must therefore be treated to
meet certain demands.
NOTE
Alfa Laval accepts no liability for consequences

arising from unsatisfactorily purified operating water
supplied by the customer.
The following conditions must be fulfilled:

1. Turbidity free water, solids content <0.001%
by volume.
Deposits must not be allowed to form in
certain areas in the separator.
2. A maximum particle size of 50 m.
3. A total hardness of <180 mg CaCO3 per
litre, which corresponds to 10dH or 12.5E.
Hard water may with time form deposits in
the operating mechanism. The precipitation
rate is accelerated with increased operating
temperature and low discharge frequency.
These effects become more severe as the
hardness of the water increase.
4. A chloride content of maximum 100 ppm
NaCl (equivalent to 60 mg Cl/l).
A chloride concentration above 60 mg/l is
not recommended.
Chloride ions contribute to corrosion on
the separator surface in contact with the
operating water, including the spindle.
Corrosion is a process that is accelerated
by increased separating temperature, low
pH, and high chloride ion concentration.
5. 6.5 < pH < 9
Increased acidity (lower pH) increases the
risk for corrosion; this is accelerated by
increased temperature and high chloride
ion content.
6. A bicarbonate content (HCO3) of minimum
70 mg HCO3 per litre, which corresponds
to 3.2dKH.

9.2.2 Protection and storage of

goods
1. The separator must be stored indoors at 5 -
55 C, if not delivered in a water-resistant
box, designated for outdoor storage.
G08736B1
2. If there is a risk for water condensation, the

equipment must stand well ventilated and
at a temperature above dew point.
3. If the storage time exceeds 12 months,

the equipment must be inspected every 6
months and, if necessary, the protection be
renewed.
The following protection products are recommended:

1. Anti-rust oil (Dinitrol 112 or equivalent) with long lasting effective
treatment for external surfaces. The oil should prevent corrosion
attacks and leaves a waxy surface.
2. Anti-rust oil (Dinitrol 40 or equivalent) is a thin lubricant for inside
protection. It gives a lubricating transparent oil film.
3. Solvent, e.g. white spirit, to remove the anti-rust oil after the
storage period.
4. Moist remover to be packed together with the separator
equipment.

9.3.2 Maintenance service
G08738N1
A work bench should be installed in the

separator room.
Hot water, compressed air and diesel oil should

be available near the work bench to make
maintenance work easier.
An overhead hoist with capacity of 300 kg

is required for transport of bowl parts to the
working bench. Lifting point should be above
the centre of the separator.
NOTE
When two or more separators are installed, the lifting

height should be increased to enable bowl parts from
one separator to be lifted and moved over an adjoining
separator.
See 8.6.2 Foundation drawing on page 196.

418
9 Installation
9.3.3 Connections to
surrounding equipment
Local safety regulations
If the local safety regulations prescribe that the
installation has to be inspected and approved
by responsible authorities before the plant is put
into service, consult with such authorities before
installing the equipment and have the projected
plant design approved by them.
G0873911
Service media
Ensure that all service media (electric power,
operating and safety liquids etc.) required for the
separator have the correct quality and capacity.
G0874021
Sludge discharge tank

If the sediment from the separator is discharged
into a tank, this tank must be sufficiently
ventilated. The connection between the
separator and the tank must be of the size
and configuration specified. If the solids are
discharged from the separator bowl casing into
a closed system, ensure that this system cannot
be overfilled or closed in such a way that the
solids cannot leave the bowl casing. This could
cause a hazardous situation.

3 Function Description
The operating instructions form part of the pump

or of the pump unit and must be kept for future
reference. Furthermore please observe the
associated documents.
3.1 Application
Use the pump solely for transporting fuel or
lubricating oils that are chemically neutral and
that contain no gas or solid components.
Use the pump only within the performance
limitations specified on the machine plate and
in the "Technical data" section. In the case of
operating data that does not agree with the
specifications on the machine plate, please
contact the manufacturer.
The pump is specifically configured for the
operating pressure stated in chapter 5.
3.1.1 Safety information

The following general safety instructions must
be observed:
No liability is accepted for damage arising

through non-observance of the operating
instructions.
- Read the operating instructions carefully
and observe them.
- The operator-owner is responsible for the
observance of the operating instructions.
- Installation, removal and installation work
may only be carried out by authorised
personnel.
In order for the warranty to remain valid,
corrective maintenance carried out during
the warranty period requires the express
permission of the manufacturer.
11
487
Observe the general regulations for the

prevention of accidents as well as the local
safety and operating instructions.
Observe the valid national and international
standards and specifications of the
installation location.
In case of systems with an increased
potential of danger to humans and/or
machines the failure of a pump may not lead
to injuries or damage to property.
- Always equip systems with an increased
potential of danger with alarm equipment.
- Maintain and check the protective/alarm
equipment regularly.
The pumped liquids can be dangerous
(e.g. hot, dangerous to health, poisonous,
combustible). Observe the safety regulations
for handling dangerous materials.
Pumped liquid can be subject to high
pressure and can cause damage and/or
personal injury should leaks occur.
3.2 Design
Screw pumps are rotating displacement pumps
whose displacement effect results from the
meshing of three rotating screws and the
enclosing housing. The radial support of the
screws is effected by the sliding contact in
the housing which requires lubrication by the
pumped liquid. Screw pumps are therefore not
suitable for dry running and can only be used up
to specific pressure and viscosity limits. Due to
the narrow tolerances, pumping of suspended
solids is not possible. Axial support of the
main screw is carried out by a deep-groove
ball bearing. An internal pressure relief valve
protects against excessive pressure that could
cause housing parts to burst.
3.2.1 Mechanical seal

The functionality of a mechanical seal is based
on the formation of a hydrodynamic film between
rotary seal ring and stationary seal ring of a
mechanical seal. The formation of this film
avoids solid body friction between both parts, the
stability of the film therefore is essential for the
functionality of the mechanical seal. However,
the formation of a fluid film also means that
the differential pressure on the seal will always
12
488
move some fluid through the gap which is filled

by the film. Therefore a properly designed
mechanical seal will always show a certain
amount of leakage. The amount of leakage is
depending on various factors, dominated by
size, rotation speed and differential pressure. In
any case, a leakage of less than 10 drops per
hour (approx. 0.5 cm3/h) is considered to be
normal and gives no reason for a replacement
of the seal.The integrated leakage vent hole
allows draining of this leakage. The drainage
through these hole has to be kept free, see 5.5
Cleaning the leakage vent hole on page 25.
Dry running must be avoided at all costs, as the
seal will overheat and be destroyed in a matter
of minutes.
3.2.2 Direction of Rotation

Standard direction of rotation: clockwise, viewed
from the drive; marked on the housing by two
arrows, see 7.6.3 Checking the direction of
rotation on page 45. Flow direction: marked on
the housing by two arrows, see 7.6.3 Checking
the direction of rotation on page 45.
3.2.3 Pressure relief valve

The integrated pressure relief valve prevents
very high pressures which can result in housing
parts bursting. The valve is purely there as
a safety element and should not be used
for control or regulation such as maintaining
pressure. Circulation through the pressure relief
valve for too long heats the pump to excess.
This reduces viscosity and can ultimately lead
to pump failure. Setting: The valve spring is
pretensioned to an opening pressure of 6 bar
10 % for separator applications, or delta 10 bar
10 % for fuel conditioning applications.

5.2 Required maintenance

The service life of the pump depends to a
great extent on the operating conditions. If the
operating limits are observed, see 6 Technical
Data on page 33, the pump has a service life
of many years. Signs of progressive wear of
individual pump elements:

Tab. 1 Check table for required maintenance
1. Check the pump visually and acoustically

every four weeks.
2. Check for signs of wear as listed in the

table above and eliminate the cause.
5.3 Mechanical seal

Mechanical seals are subject to a natural
wear that depends strongly on the respective
conditions of use. General statements about the
durability can therefore not be given. In case
of heavy pollution with solidified and/or sticky
leakage residues disassemble the mechanical
seal completely and carefully clean it, together
with the inner surfaces of the sealing sleeve,
see 5.7 Replacing the mechanical seal and
ball bearing on page 29. It is recommended
to replace the o-rings when reassembling the
mechanical seal.
5.4 Ball bearing

The ball bearings used are lifetime lubricated.
Maintenance is therefore not required. We
recommend renewing the ball bearings every
two years.

5 Maintenance
5.5 Cleaning the leakage vent hole

The regular small amounts of leakage can result
in deposits that can prevent free draining of
further leakage liquids after a longer operating
period. The leakage vent hole must therefore
be checked monthly and if necessary cleaned.

When selecting the location take the

operating limits, Net Positive Suction Head
(NPSH) values and ambient conditions into
account, see 6 Technical Data on page 33.
The function, safety and service life may
not be impaired by humidity, temperature
influences or explosive atmospheres.
During the installation ensure that all the
parts of the pump can be accessed easily
and that the maintenance work can be
carried out easily.
7.1 Installing the pump
The pump must be installed to meet the
following demands:
The pump must be mounted on a solid

foundation and on a drip tray or in a
cofferdam.
The pump can be operated vertically or
horizontally. However, if vertically mounted
the pump should not be mounted above the
motor since pumped liquid could enter the
motor should a leak occur.
The pump must be easily accessed for
inspection and service.
The pump must be installed so that the oil
is kept in the pump casing when the oil flow
is stopped.
The pump must be installed as close as
possible to the feed tank in order to avoid
suction losses.

518
7 Installation
7.3 Piping
The pipe installation must meet the following
demands:
The pipes must be installed and supported

with no support from the pump casing.
The pipe flanges must fit the pump flanges
so that they can be connected without using
any force. Check the clearance and the
angular, vertical and linear offset, adjusting
where necessary.
Before the pipes are connected to the pump
they must be cleaned from particles resulting
from, for example, welding and cutting.
Tighten the connecting screws crosswise X027361A
with torque, see 9.1.1 Tightening torques on

page 56.
In installations where the pump does not

retain the oil at stand still, the suction pipe
should be arranged so it forms a liquid trap
together with the pump. The liquid trap
should secure that the pump is kept at least
half filled with oil at stand still.
Shut-off valves must be installed on both
sides of the pump.
The suction line should be dimensioned for
an oil flow speed between 0.5 and 1.2 m/s,
and the pressure line for 1 to 3 m/s.
The suction line must be equipped with a X027513A
port near the pump, that allows filling the

pump with oil before the initial start.
The manometric suction head must not
exceed the NPSH values in 6.2 Required
Net Positive Suction Height (NPSH) values
on page 33
7.4 Strainer
An oil strainer of suitable size should be installed
to protect the pump against damage and wear
from coarse particles.
The pressure drop across the strainer should

not exceed 10 kPa (0.1 bar) at maximum flow
rate and normal viscosity.
43
519
7 Installation
7.5 Gauges
Pressure gauges on both the suction and
the pressure side must be connected by 1/2
sockets and ball valves.
7.6 Commissioning
7.6.1 Cleaning the pipe system

To protect the pump against soiling the complete
pipe system has to be cleaned carefully before
initial commissioning of the pump.
7.6.2 Filling the pump

The filling procedure must be followed when the
pump is taken into operation after installation
and whenever the pump casing has been
emptied of oil, for example, when the pump has
been dismantled.
NG
WARNI
!
Entrapment hazard
Do not start filling the pump unless the power is
switched off.
1. Remove the fan cover from the electric

motor.
2. Turn the pump shaft or the fan impeller of
the motor. This tests that the pump runs
smoothly. If the pump cannot be turned by
hand, remedy the fault before installing the
pump, see 4.2 Troubleshooting on page 19.

4. Open the shut-off valve on the pressure

side of the pump.
5. Vent the shaft seal compartment (3).
In installations with positive suction pressure:

After opening the inlet and outlet valves, simply
open the deaeration plug (3) a few turns until oil
sips out. Tighten the plug.
In installation with negative suction pressure:

After opening the inlet and outlet valves, remove
the deaeration plug (3) and fill the shaft seal
compartment with oil. Fit and tighten the plug. X027514A
8. Fill the pump with oil while rotating the

pump manually. The pump is rotated
by turning the motor fan in the direction
indicated by the rotation arrow on the motor
or connection flange. (There are arrows for
inlet and outlet directions on the pump. Do
not mix them up with the rotation arrow.)
9. When the pump is filled, close the filling port

and refit the fan cover.
10. Check that all valves necessary for

operation are open.

7.6.3 Checking the direction of

rotation
The direction of rotation and the flow direction
are indicated by arrows on the pump. The
direction of rotation of the motor gives the
direction of rotation of the pump. That is to say,
the fan impeller of the motor must rotate in the
direction in which the arrows on the pump are
pointing to indicate direction of rotation.

HEATING SYSTEM KIT 1 FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
1.2 Design
The heater consists of a number of corrugated
stainless steel plates brazed together to form a
plate pack. The pack is designed so that the
mineral oil flows through every second space
between the plates, and the heating medium
through every second space. Highly efficient heat
transfer is generated by allowing the two liquids
to flow in opposite directions.
P0 0 35 31 A
Heat transfer priciple
The heater has a manufacturing plate, which

can be found behind the cover plate between the
connection flanges. When contacting Alfa Laval,

fully open.
2 Start the oil feed pump.
3 If necessary vent air from the heater through
the safety valve.
4 Start the heater controller.
5 Open the heating media supply and outlet
valves.
6 Check that the correct oil outlet temperature
is reached. If the right temperature is not
reached, see the Fault finding chapter.

HEATING SYSTEM KIT 2 OPERATION
2.2 Operation
The Heatpac CBM does not require any

particular attention during normal operation.
However, regularly check the pressure indicators
(if installed) before and after the heater. The
pressure difference indicates the pressure drop
in the heater. If the pressure drop increases to
more than approx.
0.5 1 bar, the heater is starting to clog and
needs to be cleaned, see Maintenance.

4 Maintenance

The plate corrugations are designed to create
high turbulence which, to a high degree, will
prevent the formation of deposits on the plate
surfaces. However, fouling cannot always be
eliminated and will cause pressure drop and
poor heat transfer, resulting in reduced
performance and increased energy
requirement. Therefore, never wait with
cleaning until the heater is choked-up.
Cleaning should be carried out every six
months or at other intervals based on
experience. If the heating medium is steam or
hot water, the heating cirquit must also be
cleaned.
Recommended cleaning agents:
For fuel oil heater:
Alfa Laval fuel oil liquid
(Art. No. 1763500-02).
For lube oil heater:
Alfa Laval lube oil liquid
(Art. No. 1762852-01).
The Alfa Laval cleaning liquids are specially
suitable for the materials used in the
Heatpac CBM. Liquids that are corrosive to
copper or stainless steel, for example
hydrochloric acid and nitric acid, must not be
used.

6 Installation
6.1 System Design

Heatpac CBM is designed for use in an oil
preheating system for separator feed oil, or in a
fuel conditioning system for engine fuel oil.
Because of its small volume, the
Heatpac CBM is very sensitive to temperature
fluctuations in the various media. This must be
taken into consideration when designing the
control system.
Use a PI temperature controller.
Select a regulating valve with the fastest
possible reaction rate. It should also be
installed close to the steam inlet in order to
avoid condensate build up.
The temperature sensor, TT1/TT2 should be
placed as close to the oil outlet of the heater
as possible. This will give rapid reaction
even at low media flow.
The heating media inlet should be equipped
with a strainer to trap impurities in the
heating system.
Strainer mesh size should be:
For Steam and Hot Water - 500
For Thermal oil - 800
When using steam, a vacuum breaker
should be installed downstream the steam
regulating valve.
When using steam, a mechanical float type
steam trap must be used. Other types of
steam trap are not allowed.

HEATING SYSTEM KIT 6 INSTALLATION
6.2 Heater Mounting

When installing the Heatpac CBM, the
following should be taken into consideration:
If steam is to be used, the heater must be
mounted vertically. If both media are liquids
the heater can be mounted either vertically
or horizontally.
Before connecting any piping to the heater,
make sure that all foreign objects have
been rinsed out of the system.
Vibrations or other forces from the
connected piping must be avoided.
When connecting the pipe system to the
heater make sure that no stress or strain is
P0 03 4 91 A
placed on the heater by the piping system.
Also remember that expansion of the piping
due to heat can result in high stress. 1. Heating medium inlet

The heating medium shall always be
connected to the upper and lower left
connections as seen from the front of the
Heatpac CBM. Make sure that the

6.3 Installation of Ancillary Components
Specifications
A safety valve with provision for pressure relief
must be installed in the oil inlet line. See the
installation drawings
ING
WARN
!
Burn Hazard
Make sure that the safety valve outlet leads into a
collecting tank or below floor level.
All connections to the heater shall be fitted

with shut-off valves so that the heater can
be removed if necessary. The valves must
not be of the fast-closing type as these can
cause pressure shocks in the heater.
When using steam as heating medium, a
mechanical float type steam trap must be
installed at least 200 mm lower than the
outlet of the heater, providing a hydraulic
head above the steam trap.
The condensate collection should be
installed below the steam trap. Otherwise
there is a risk that the discharge pressure
becomes too high and the condensate can
not be drained off.
A vacuum breaker should be mounted on
the steam inlet side to facilitate condensate

Recommendation
Pressure indicators should be installed on
the oil side before and after the heater in
order to detect pressure drops, which
indicate fouling of the heater.

8.1.6 Valve Options

Eleven versions of the regulating valve are
available to cover the range of flow rates
required.
The valves have different plug and spindle
assemblies to obtain the different flow rates.
There are six different bore sizes with different
valve housings and bottom cover gaskets. The
remaining components (stuffing box and
options) are identical in all valves.
8.1.7 Preventive Maintenance

No preventive maintenance of the motor drive
is recommended.
The stuffing box seals should be periodically
checked, and the valve inspected for erosion
and cavitation damages. Any worn parts must
be replaced.

The frequency of valve maintenance necessary

to avoid breakdown can vary between every
three months and a number of years depending
on the working environment.

8.2 Safety Valve
8.2.1 Application
The safety valve is for use in Alfa Laval
mineral oil systems.
8.2.2 Design
The relief valve consists of a housing with a

spring-loaded cone and spindle. A gasket ensures
efficient sealing between the cone and the
housing seat.
G003411A
8.2.3 Working Principle
The safety valve is delivered with preset opening

pressure. If the pressure in the system exceeds
the preset pressure, the spring-loaded cone is
affected, and the valve opens.
The cone movement can be tested by lifting the
spindle using the manual relief on the top of the
valve.

SLUDGE REMOVAL KIT COMPONENT DESCRIPTION 1 SLUDGE REMOVAL KIT
1 Sludge Removal Kit

1.1 Function
The Sludge Removal Kit collects sludge
discharged from the separator in a small tank
positioned close to the separator. At pre-set
intervalls, the sludge pump is activated, and
the sludge is pumped away from the separation
system to a larger common sludge tank.
If the Sludge Removal Kit tank is filled
between the pre-set intervalls, a level switch
inside the tank is activated, and the the pump
empties the tank.
The Sludge Removal Kit makes positioning of
the separator much easier as it does not have
to be positioned directly over the common
sludge tank.

1 SLUDGE REMOVAL KIT SLUDGE REMOVAL KIT COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Optional for HFO applications, the Sludge

Removal Kit is equipped with a heating
element positioned under the bottom plate of
the sludge tank. The heating element keeps
the oil, sludge, and water in the sludge tank at
a suitable temperature.
The heating element is activated automatically
when power to the Control Cabinet is switched
on. The temperature is regulated by a
termostat inside the heating element.
NOTE
If the separation system has not been run for a

longer period, the Sludge Removal Kit must be
started 1 hour before restart.
4 584692-02
592
1.2 Operation
The Sludge Removal Kit operates
automatically according to the separator
automation program. The sludge tank kit must
be inspected regularly and cleaned if necessary.
Time between inspections can vary depending
on the oil quality in the separation system. See
1.4 Maintenance, page 7.
1.3 Installation
The Sludge Removal Kit must be connected to
the ventilation pipe for the sludge outlet, the
separator sludge outlet, and the sludge pipe
system for the larger common sludge tank.
NOTE
The sludge removal pump must be set to the correct

speed circa 60 strokes/min, otherwise the lifetime
of the diaphragm, valve balls, and air motor will be
severely shortened.
Adjust the air quality to the sludge pump using the
sludge pump air regulating valve.
ING
WARN
!
Health Risk
Oil mist and vaporized oil constituents from hot oily
sludge may be dangerous to health and must not be
inhaled.
584692-02 5
593
Sludge discharge
A sludge pipe with an inspection plug must be
connected from the tank to the separation
system.
Oil tank ventilation
pipe
Tank ventilation
A pipe or hose must be drawn from the flange
to the nearest oil tank ventilation pipe.
The pipe /hose must have the same diameter
as the flange opening. ~ 5 mm
The pipe/hose must be as straight as
P0 0 00 63 A
possible, with a steady upward incline.
The connection to the oil tank ventilation pipe
must point upwards as shown.
NOTE
For HFO separation, it is not recommended to make

the connection to the separator room ventilation
system.
For LO separation, connection to the separator room
ventilation system should be made only if the
separator room ventilation is adequate. Use the
optional connection hose (part no. 568023-80, -81, or
-82) for this purpose. This hose is designed to entrap
oil drops in the vent hose, and lead the oil back to the
Sludge Removal Kit tank.
Pipe to common sludge tank

A pipe must be drawn from the Sludge
Removal Kit tank to the larger common tank.
The pipe diameter must be size 1.
The pipe must have its own heat tracing and
insulation.
NOTE
The Sludge Removal Kit is equipped with its own

non-return valve on the sludge outlet flexible hose.
NOTE
The pipe from the Sludge Removal Kit must be as

straight as possible.
6 584692-02
594
1.4 Maintenance
NOTE
Impurities gather in the Sludge Removal Kit tank.

Regularly check the tank and level switch. See
instructions below.
Proceed as follows:
Undo the screws at the top of the sludge tank
and remove the sludge pipe kit.
Pour 2/3 litre diesel oil into the tank and start
the sludge pump manually. This is to clean the
inside of the tank and the complete sludge
discharge arrangement.
NOTE
To operate the sludge pump manually, use the screw

on the air solenoid valve.
Clean the level switch if necessary.

Check the seals and gaskets, and change if
necessary.
Loosen the hose clip and check the inside of
the ventilation hose. Clean if necessary.
To avoid breakdown of the Sludge Removal
system, the sludge pump must be regularly
overhauled as follows using spare parts kit
1766702-81.
Perform an overhaul on the sludge pump
every 18 months operation.
Replace the diaphragms and the o-rings with
those delivered in the spare parts kit.
Perform a 4000 hour Inspection Service.
