Technical specifications
The FAM is able to dewater authorized fluids down to a water content of less than
100 PPM.
FAM 10/10 ≈ 0.8 l/h
FAM 10/15 ≈ 1.0 l/h
The dewatering speed is dependent on:
Water content
Fluid temperature
Detergent additives
Volumetric flow of the FAM
The fluid temperature must be at least 40°C in order to ensure an effective water
separation speed.
The sample for the determination of the water content must be extracted from the
system to be cleaned during operation.
Typical dewatering rates:
Dewatering rate
Free water on the floor of the tank influences the overall water content. This is to be
drained before starting.
Suitable Fluids
The FAM may only be used only in connection with lubrication and mineral oils
or with mineral oil-based media or with biological fluids that can be broken down
quickly - on the basis of synthetic esters (HEES).
Please contact us if you want to use other fluids.
Operation with other media could destroy the FAM.
The FluidAqua Mobil can only be utilised in connection with the following hydraulic
fluids:
Mineral oils acc. DIN 50524
Gear oils acc. DIN 51517 and DIN 51524
NOTE
Synthetic esters (HEES) acc. to DIN 51524/2

FluidAqua Mobil – FAM 10/15 +CS1000 +AS1000 FAM Description
FAM Function description
After the FAM has been switched on, filter pump unit 1 begins to suction fluid out of
the tank to be cleaned out and to pump it through the filter into vacuum chamber 3
at a speed of 10 l/min. Vacuum pump 7
begins at the same time to build up the necessary vacuum. The fluid to be cleaned trickles downward through special filling materials. These filling materials are responsible for forming a thing fluid film and reducing the speed of the trickle. At the same time, a stream of air flowing upward from
below against this current takes up the fluid and conveys the to the outside by
means of the vacuum pump. Once level 02 is reached on the level switch, emptying
pump 5
level falls until level 01 is reached, after which solenoid valve 6
is switched on in order to convey around 15 l/min to the outlet. The filling
switches on and the
two pumps convey into the vacuum chamber. The filling level continues to rise until
level 02 is reached, after which the solenoid valve shuts back off again, the filling
level falls again, etc.
After actuating the stop switch, the filter-pump unit stops and the evacuation pump
empties the vacuum chamber.
Switching the main switch to "OFF" renders all engines and valves voltage-free.
The vacuum in the vacuum chamber is regulated with the regulating valve 8
.
Possible Applications
The electric control supports several operation modes e.g.,
• the FAM is switched On/Off at a control room.
• the general malfunction message can be transmitted to a control room
• the operating status can be queried
• the FAM can be switched on/off by a level sensor in the transfer by pumping
operation mode.

FAM Set-up and Connection
Setting up the FAM
The following points are to be observed when setting up the FAM:
• The unit has to be set up in a horizontal position on a level surface.
Special mounting is not required.
• The immobilization brakes on the wheels must be locked to avoid unintended
movement of the unit.
• Place the FAM near the tank to be cleaned (length of the hoses max. 5 m, height
difference max. 2 m).
• The ambient temperature may not be below 10°C and may not exceed 40°C.
• Access to the main switch has to be unimpeded at all times.
• An area of at least 0.8 m must be kept free for maintenance purposes on both
the left hand and right hand sides of the FAM.
Hydraulic Connection of the FAM
Connecting the suction port connection (IN)
Make the suction-side connection with a flexible hose that is resistant to negative
pressure or with pipelines. The nominal size of the connecting lines must be at least
as large as the cross-section of the unit in order to prevent excessively high pressure loss.
Permissible suction pressure: -0.3 to 1 bar.
Connection to the tank must be done in a manner so that it is always below the oil
level.
NOTE
The medium may not be suctioned directly from the bottom of the tank.
The greatest amount of impurities in the fluid is to be found at the bottom of
the tank.
High levels of contamination in the fluid can cause damage to the FAM.
Connecting the return port connection (OUT)
The return-flow line or the return-flow hose must be installed below the level of the
oil in order to prevent air from entering the medium.

Preparing the Vacuum Pump
As a basic rule, the rotary vane vacuum pump is not filled with oil at the time the
FAM is delivered.
NOTE
Operating the FAM without oil in the vacuum pump will cause irreparable
damage to the pump.
The rotary vane vacuum pump must be checked for sufficient filling be-
fore commissioning.
To fill the rotary vane vacuum pump, the
oil is filled in through the filling screw plug
(1) until the oil filling has risen above the
MIN marking in the viewing glass (2).
Exceeding the MAX marking will lead to
fault messages on the control panel.

2
The oil quantity between the MIN/MAX markings is ≈ 0.3 liters
The water level is monitored automatically by the integrated float switch while the
FAM is in operation. A message will appear on the control panel when the MIN filling
level has been reached.
Synthetic vacuum pump oil in accordance with DIN 51506, Group VDL, ISO VG100
must be used for topping up.

DANGER
Electric shock
Any work involving the electrical system may
only be done by a properly trained, certified
electrician.
The voltage and frequency indicated on the rating plate must coincide with the voltage supply present.
If a plug is present on the FAM or if a plug is mounted, then the FAM is to be operated from a correspondingly fused socket.
The direction of rotation of the motor is checked by means of a phase sequence relay. If the phase sequence at the socket is recognized as being incorrect, then a
message will appear on the display.
Any reversal of the direction of rotation that may be
required is accomplished by switching two phases in
the terminal box of the engine or, in the event that the
device is equipped with an electric plug with phase
switcher, by rotating two phases in the plug. No dismantling of the plug is required.

Operating Mode "Cleaning until"
The operating mode "Cleaning until" is possible only after a water saturation of
<90%. In cases of >90% or free water, the measurements of the ContaminationSensor will be falsified to such an extent that the CS will issue a fault message.
This fault message is ignored by the SPS. The most recently saved measured value
remains saved there until a restart is required.
The following message is output when the contamination is selected:
"Oil saturation >90%. Measurement with CS not possible!"

Sign-off time
A log-out time is entered in the system for the user. The user is automatically logged
out if the time that elapses between any two given actions on the part of the user,
e.g. entering a value or changing screens, is longer than the log-out time. He will
then have to log in again in order to operate objects under password protection.

Error messages
NOTE
The switch cabinet door may not be opened unless the main switch is at "Off", because otherwise the main switch would be damaged.
The fault messages are not displayed in all of the menus but rather only in the following screens:
- Start screen
- RH
- CS
The fault messages that are relevant to the CS will only be displayed on the CS
screen.
The device comes to a stop and the fault indicator lamp flashes when fault messages occur. The device can not be started any more.
The operator can however jump into the different menus and operate a component
in the Manual Menu necessary for the elimination of the fault.
If several errors occur, then the most recently occurring message will be displayed
first. One can used the arrow keys to scroll through the individual fault messages.
In order to restart the device, first the error must be eliminated and then acknowledged afterwards. It is only then that automatic operation is possible again.

Maintenance
Visual checks
Regular visual inspection of all hoses and conduits for leakage.
Regular visual inspection of the electrical apparatus for possible damage to lines,
plugs, sensors or cables and/or devices in the control cabinet.
Regular visual inspections of filling level, vacuum pump
Before carrying out any maintenance work the FAM must be shut down safely. This
means:
1. Main switch in position "0",
2. Power cord disconnected.
3. Mains cable wound around cable drum apparatus present on the FAM. (This
last as a protection against switching back on again!)
Vacuum pump
The first oil change must be carried out after 100 operating hours. Later oil change
intervals are dependent on operating conditions.
The oil must be changed after 500 - 2000 hours of operation, but at least semiannually. The oil may need to be changed sooner than that in the event of heavy
contamination.
After 2000 hours of operation or if oil mist escapes from the separator during the
operation of the pump the exhaust filter must be changed.

Changing oil and oil filter
The first oil change must take place after 100 operating hours. Later oil changes after 3000 hours or every six months.
The vacuum pump must be at at operating state temperature when the oil is
changed:
• Put the FAM into operation for 10 minutes
• Shut off the FAM.
• Wait until the pressure in the vacuum column is at atmospheric pressure (≈
1000 mbar abs).
The following accessories are required for accomplishing these tasks:
• Compressor oil VE101 (for part-no., see replacement parts list)
Replacing the oil:
Open the screw plug (4) / ball faucet to drain off the old oil.
Seal the screw plug when the flow of oil diminishes and then let the pump run
again briefly for a few seconds.
Open the plug screw once again and drain off the remaining oil.
Screw the plug screw back in tightly.
Remove the oil filter (11) and replace it with a new one.
Fill in new oil through the oil filling screw plug (5) until the MAX marking (3) has
been reached.
Replacing the Air De-oiling Element
Oil mist or increased electricity consumption by the drive engine (response of the
engine protection switch) can be traced back to a soiled air de-oiling element.
To carry out the replacement:
• Remove the four attachment screws of the ventilation cover (10).
• Undo the leaf spring safety screw (15).
• Remove leaf spring (15).
• Remove air deoiling element (9) and replace with a new one.
• Replace ventilation cover seal (10).
• Assembly in reversed order of sequence.
For further information please refer to the attached operating instruction for
the BUSCH vacuum pump.

Clean the suction strainer.
NOTE
Operating the FAM without suction strainers can lead to damage.
The suction sieve must be cleaned at regular intervals and when the fault message
"Check suction sieve" appears. To accomplish this, remove the suction sieve from
its sieve housing and use compressed air to free it of dirt, reinstalling it afterwards.
Unscrew cap to clean suction strainer
Fluid filter (OLF-5)
As soon as the error message "change fluid filter" appears on the display the filter
should be taken out of the housing and be replaced by a new one.
The contaminated filter has to be disposed of according to the local regulations as
hazardous waste.
Changing the Filter Element
Switch off the system, close the ball faucets on the inlet and the outlet and carry out
a pressure relief sequence in the filter housing. Carefully open the emptying screw
(SW 6 mm) on the bottom of the filter housing (the emptying screw is equipped with
ventilation slits).
The filter pot can be completely emptied by removing the emptying screw (SW 6
mm) on the floor of the filter housing (contents ≈ 2 liters).
Now undo the tension clamp on the filter housing and then carefully remove the filter
housing by moving it downwards.
Now pull the filter element carefully out of its holder.
The filter pot is to be cleaned.
The O-ring and the filter pot are to be inspected for possible damage.
Replace if necessary.
Moisten the O-rings on the new filter element with the operating medium.
Now the new filter element can be installed. Make sure the new element is fitted
tightly to the connection part.

FluidAqua Mobil – FAM 10/15 +CS1000 +AS1000 Storing the FAM
Pull the filter housing over the element from below, taking care to ensure it has a
tight fit, and fasten it with the tension clamp (tightening torque 5 - 10 Nm).
Check the emptying screw on the floor of the filter housing for stable fitting.
Heater (Option)
Under normal operating condition the heater element is wear-free. Regular service
is therefore not required.
Storing the FAM
In the event of prolonged storage, the FAM should be stored in clean, dry spaces.
Storage temperature is 20°C ... 60°C
The maximum storage time is 6 months, after which the FAM must be put back into
operation for at least 24 hours. Afterwards the device can be placed in storage once
again.
Disposing of the FAM
The packaging material should be re-used/re-cycled as appropriate for your area.
When decommissioning and/or disposing of the FAM, adherence is to be maintained
to local guidelines and regulations pertaining to occupational safety and environmental protection. This applies in particular to the oil contained in the unit, to components coated in oil and to electronic components.
After disassembling the unit and separating the various materials, they can be reused or disposed of properly in accordance with local regulations.
