2 READ PRIOR TO OPERATION
The operator of the system should inform the coolant supplier
before initial filling.
2.1 THE INITIAL FILLING OF THE FILTER SYSTEM:
Before the initial filling with cooling lubricant, fill the
complete system with a detergent and let it circulate for several
hours.
When using oil, it should first be tested on filterability.
When using emulsion; o Concentrate can be used with emulgators that
suppress an occurrence of foaming. o Demineralized water can be
used or water with a hardness of max. 150 ppm Ca-
carbonate. o A dosing and mixing system can be used. o The newly
filled system needs to circulate the emulsion over the complete
system for
2-4 hours before the machine starts to process.
2.2 BACKGROUND:
Foreign liquids that have remained in the system during the trial
run by the machine manufacturer and/or dirt deposits that have
gotten into the system during installation work, should be removed
from the system before the system is treated with the cooling
lubricant. The cooling lubricant supplier should advise. When using
oils, the filter performance can be greatly reduced depending
on:
viscosity of the oil
additives
surface tension If the data from the oil supplier is insufficient
and the influence can lead to a reduction or problems with
filterability, the oil should be checked in our laboratory. 1 liter
of clean oil is enough for a laboratory check. When using emulsions
or dissolutions, soaps should be avoided under all circumstances.
Soaps are calcium compounds that are formed either by anti-foam
additives or by the water quality. Soap formation leads to sludging
of the filter surface, which leads to:
Constant feed of the filter
High residual contamination in the clean tank
High residual moisture in the dirt collector
Sludging of pipes and valves
2.3 AVOID SOAPING:
Water (90-95% of the emulsion) should be chemically neutral and
stable. Contact the local authority for the detail of quality of
the urban water. If the urban water contains <150 PPM calcium
carbonate, it can be used. However, if a higher concentrate is
given, the initial filling should take place with demineralized
water which can be generated either externally or along an internal
desalination plant. Concentrate (5-10% of the emulsion) should
allow the soft water approach described above. Concentrates of the
new generation contain emulsifiers which by virtue of their
chemical composition suppress foaming and make additives
unnecessary.

M_RBF 100- 1500_v02_en
The mixture of water concentrate, the emulsion, should be prepared
by means of a suitable dosing and mixing device to ensure
homogeneity and quality. A fresh emulsion contains a relatively
high proportion of air. Deairing of the emulsion should take place
to avoid foaming. Circulating the emulsion for about 2-4 hours
under low pressure (10-30% of the plant's capacity) wil result in
deairing. At the beginning, a foam collar can form on the coolant
surface. However, this dissolves independently during the
circulation. Antifoam products are not needed and should be avoided
as anti-foam production leads to calcium soaps. These soaps need to
be avoided as well. Comment: Although the coolant supplier should
give advice, the practice shows that coolant suppliers are not
always familiar with new generation filtration systems. We as a
filter manufacturer do not want the operator of the system to
encounter system problems caused by coolant problems. Those
problems only can be solved by a coolant change and leads
unnecessarily money and time loss.

3 FILTER RBF-E
3.1 BASIC OPERATION
Dirt coolant enters the filter housing via the filter inlet. While
the coolant can pass the fine mesh covered filter drum, dirt is
caught and form a dirt layer, the filter cake, which improves the
degree of filtration. At the same time this filter cake reduces the
flow through the filter medium and causes a raising of the coolant
level in the filter housing. Due to this raising coolant level, a
differential height is created between inside and outside of the
filter drum, the hydrostatic pressure. The hydrostatic pressure
improves the lifetime of the filter cake. Finally the coolant level
raises so far the level switch will be activated. In order to
continue the filter belt has be cleaned, the filter indexing.
During indexing, the filter belt will be cleaned until the coolant
level falls below the level switch by rotating the filter drum and
at the same time. Mechanically the belt is cleaned by rotating the
brush in order to discharge the dirt layer into a sludge bin.
Hydraulically the belt is cleaned by back flushing the filter drum
from the inside with cleaned coolant in order to clean the meshes
of the filter belt. As soon as the level switch is free, both
drives as well as back flushing will stop.

3.2 OPTION TANK FLUSHING
A filtration is never 100%. Fines that passed the filter screen end
up in the clean tank and settle down to the tank bottom. Tank
flushing will minimize (not eliminate) this settlement. A certain
pollution will always remain in the clean coolant tank. The clean
coolant tank has only to be cleaned when:
the pump will be endangered by dirt.
the coolant need to be replaced Mostly, the filter back flush pump
is used for both, filter back washing AND tank flushing. Therefore,
the pipe work is equipped with a 3-way valve activated by a
solenoid valve. The filter back washing has highest priority. When
level high in filter switch is activated 3-way valve switches to
back wash mode. When the filter is not back washed, 3 way valve
will be in tank flush mode.
In tank flush mode, special nozzles are used which are capable to
increase circulating capacity by ejecting coolant into the clean
tank. The increased circulating flow creates a turbulence in the
clean tank and reduces settlements of fines to a minimum.

3.3 TROUBLESHOOTING
Due to incorrect belt cleaning or a lack of maintenance, the belt
is probably partly plugged. Remove the topcover and clean the belt
by using a high pressure cleaner. Clean the belt from the outside
to the inside. Check the nozzles and replace if necessary.
Caution Filter indexes too much
Filter indexes too long
Too high flow to filter
Incorrect cleaning of filter belt. Possibly a part of the filter
medium is plugged
Coolant problem
Machine supply pumps Check pressures. Note: Lower pressures means
higher flow.
• Additives used? • Different coolant? • Is the quality of the
coolant ok? • Tramp oils in coolant? Advise from coolant supplier
required. Do not try to solve a chemical problem yourself
Incorrect mechanical cleaning o Brush worn out
o Adjust the brush
o Flush pump damaged

4 MAINTENANCE
Nozzle check
It is extremely important to check the back flush nozzles every
week:
Open the inspection opening
Activate level switch manually *)
Check whether all the nozzles are spraying.
*) Manually activating the level switch The level switch is
designed as a floater switch or a liquiphant:
The floater switch can be activated by operating the limit switch
at the drive side of the filter.
When a liquiphant is used you can either o take off junction-box at
switch, keep a magnet onto the housing of the
switch (for details separate manual of the liquiphant). o
Alternative it is possible to regenerate a signal from control
panel (not
standard).

4.2 OTHER CHECKS
Check filter screen on damages by operating the filter drum
manually. Check filter back washing pressure – Pressure > 3 Bar
/ Nozzles. Check drum seal. The presence of Item 2 guaranties the
sealing. Check electrical components.
4.3 EVERY 3 MONTHS
Clean the filter screen by using high pressure cleaning unit. Open
the inspection cover, use high pressure unit to clean filter screen
from the outside to the inside. Cleaning the filter screen extends
the lifetime. For necessary maintenance of the components, see the
separate component manuals
