indicator and insert the alkalines. If MM70 is ordered with
rechargeable battery, it is already in place as shipped from the
factory.
2. Recharge the battery as follows: Plug in charger connector to the
indicator. The plug is located at the top of the indicator, covered
by rubber seal. Then connect the charger to wall socket. A
battery symbol in the left corner of the display starts to roll.
3. It is not recommended to use MM70 during the first recharging.
Later on MM70 can be used while recharging.
4. Duration of recharging depends on the charge level of the
battery being 4 hours typical. The recommended first recharging
time is 6 hours.
5. The battery is full when the battery symbol stops rolling.
6. Disconnect the charger.
Turning On the Device
1. Connect the probe to either one of the bottom connectors of the
indicator. To ensure durable connection, screw the metal ring
clockwise until it tightens up. (Respectively, when
disconnecting the cable, first screw the metal ring
counterclockwise until it loosens and then pull out the plug.)

6. Press the EXIT key. To check and change the pressure setting,
select YES. Otherwise select NO, basic display appears.
Installing the Probe
First select a place for the probe that simulates real conditions of the
process. Oil should circulate freely around the sensor; a rapid oil flow
is recommended. Install the probe directly into the circulation system
and not into the oil reservoir because of deposition.It is recommended
that the sensor head is installed directly in the process through the ball
valve assembly. When the ball valve assembly is used, the pipe does
not have to be emptied or shut down for installation or removal of the
probe. Install the sensor head transversely against the direction of the
process flow. Avoid installing into a bend in the pipe.
NOTE
Take care not to damage the pipe of the probe. If the pipe is damaged,
the probe head is less tight and will not go through the clasp nut.
Make sure that the filter is tightly fastened to protect the sensors..
Mounting the Probe for Pressurized Pipelines/Oils
Due to the sliding fit, the MMP78 is easy to install into and remove
from the pressurized process. The probe is especially suitable for the
14 __________________________________________________________________ M210878EN-A
Chapter 3 ____________________________________ INSTALLATION AND MOUNTING OPTIONS
measurements in pipelines. The maximum installation pressure is 10
bar and the maximum operation pressure is 20 bar.

Tightening the Clasp Nut
1. Adjust the probe to a suitable depth according to the type of
installation and tighten the clasp nut first manually.
2. Tighten the clasp nut first manually. Mark the fitting screw and
the clasp nut. Tighten the nut a further 30 - 40° (ca.1/12" turn)
with a plastic wrench. If you have a suitable torque spanner,
tighten the nut to max 35±5 Nm (25±4 ft-lbs).

CAUTION
CAUTION
In pressurized processed it is essential to tighten the supporting nuts
and screws very carefully to prevent loosening of the probe by the
action of pressure
Take care not to damage the probe body. A damaged body makes the
probe head less tight and may prevent it from going through the clasp
nut.
Ball Valve Installation
The ball valve installation is preferred when connecting the probe to a
pressurized process or pipeline. Use the Vaisala BALLVALVE-1 ball
valve set or a 1/2" ball valve assembly with a ball hole of 14 mm or
more. If you install the sensor head ( 12 mm) in a process pipe, please
note that the nominal size of the pipe must be at least 1 inch (2.54
cm). Use the manual press tool to press the sensor head into the
pressurized (< 10 bar) process or pipeline.
0605-083
1. Shut down the process if the process pressure is more than 10
bars. If the pressure is lower there is no need to shut down the
process.
2. Make the installation according to the figure below. Install the
sensor head transversely against the direction of the process
flow.
VAISALA_______________________________________________________________________ 17

The probe can be installed in the process through the ball valve
assembly provided that the process pressure is less than 10 bars. This
way, the process does not have to be shut down for installing or
removing the probe. However, if the process is shut down before
removing the probe, the process pressure can be max. 20 bars.
Mounting the Probe for Direct Measurement (No Pressure)

Calibration and Adjustment of MM70 Series Probes
General about Calibrations
The MM70 is fully calibrated as shipped from factory. Adjustment
should be done if there is a reason to believe that device is not within
the accuracy specifications. The recommended calibration interval is
one year.
It is recommended to send the device to Vaisala Service Centre for
calibration and adjustment, see contact information in section Vaisala
Service Centers on page 57. Alternatively, user can calibrate and
adjust MM70 by following the instructions below.
NOTE
Preparations before the Calibration
Before calibration the used sensor should be cleaned with instrument
air to blow out existing oil or gently first flush with hepthane (C7H16)
and dry with instrument air. This is to decrease response time and to
prevent contamination of the salt bath and change of the reference
condition. See Chapter 6, MAINTENANCE, on page 55.
It is important to clean the sensor before calibration as the dirty
sensor can contamine the salt bath and change the reference
condition.
When using Vaisala humidity calibrator HMK15, use the adapter
fitting (13.5 mm hole). Before starting the adjustment mode, take out
the screw vovering the calibration button (item 3 in Figure 2). See
Figure 2 on page 11.
Relative Humidity Adjustment
Li-Cl-NaCl Automatic Adjustment
LiCl-NaCl automatic adjustment is a two-point adjustment in
reference humidities of 11.3 % (LiCl) and 75 % (NaCl). You don't
VAISALA_______________________________________________________________________ 49

have to feed the reference values, the MM70 displays the accurate
value based on the measured temperature and the Greenspan table
stored into the memory of the MM70. Make the adjustment as
instructed in the section below (select LiCl-NaCl autom. on item 8
and follow the display instructions).
2-point Adjustment
Low humidity references 0 % (Nitrogen)/ 11.3 % (LiCl) and higher
humidity references 75 % (NaCl)/ 97 % (K2SO4) are recommended
for two-point adjustment. Ensure that the difference between the
humidity references is more than 50 %.
1. When adjusting both relative humidity and temperature, please
make the temperature adjustment first.
