    Units With Hydraulics

    Although the hydraulic pressures in this machine are low compared tosome hydraulically operated equipment, it is important to rememberthat a sudden hydraulic oil leak can cause serious injury, or even befatal if the pressure is high enough.

    Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skincausing serious injury. Keep hands and body awayfrom pinholes which eject fluid under pressure. Usea piece of cardboard or paper to search for leaks. Ifany fluid is injected into the skin, it must be immediatelyremoved by a doctor familiar with this type of injury.

    NOTICE:Wear safety glasses, and keep face clear of area whenbleeding air from hydraulic system to avoid spraying oil into eyes.

    Heater Is HotThe heater is hot and will burn clothing and skin.Keep the heater in its insulated heater shroud whennot in use, and use care when heating the pipe.

    NOTICE:Use only a clean non-synthetic cloth to clean the heaterplates.

    Electrical SafetyAlways ensure power cords are properlygrounded. It is important to remember that youare working in a wet environment with electricaldevices. Proper ground connections help tominimize the chances of an electric shock.

    Frequently inspect electrical cords and unit for damage. Havedamaged components replaced and service performed by aqualified electrician.

    Do not carry electrical devices by the cord.

    NOTICE: Always connect units to the proper power source aslisted on the unit, or in the owner's manual. On units with twopower cords, plug each cord into separate power circuits. Do notplug into both outlets of one duplex receptacle.

    NOTICE: Disconnect the machine from the power source beforeattempting any maintenance or adjustment.

    Calibrating the Heater Stand

    Calibrating the Heater Stand

    Turn on the calibration heaters on the DL8701 and DL8702 calibration stand and allow themto stabilize at their preset temperatures.

    NOTICE:Avoid drafts, open doors, HVAC outlets, fans, etc. near the heater calibration stand.

    Heater #4 is set to 550F and will take the longest to stabilize.

    Beginning each day of calibrations, verify the accuracy of each heater by using the Flukedrywell temperature calibrator, turning each heater enable switch OFF as the RTD is removedfrom the heater butt plate and inserted into the Fluke tester. Turn on power to the Fluke DryWell and wait for it to indicate the process temperature. Press SET and use the and keys to select the desired preset. Press SET again, then press and hold EXIT until thedisplay goes blank. The drywell thermostat should be set to the desired temperature (400F,440F, 500F and 540F) and allowed to stabilize before checking the heater controllers.These heaters should be maintained as closely as possible to the default preset temperatures sothat the tolerance zone of the DataLogger is centered around the test heater reading.

    If the reading from the Fluke drywell calibrator varies from the temperature controller, it may be

    adjusted to match the controllers display by entering or changing the PVOF (process variableoffset) parameter value in the temperature controller being calibrated.

    Changing the PVOF parameter value

    Note the difference between the readings and which is greater, then press and hold thetemperature controller SEL button down for six seconds until P is displayed. Press thedown-arrow button until the PVOF parameter is displayed. Press SEL to display the valueof PVOF. Enter a negative value if the Fluke calibrator reading is less than the temperaturecontroller and a positive value if the Fluke calibrator reading is higher than the temperaturecontroller. Press SEL to enter the new value. Press and hold SEL again (approximately threeseconds until the SV set temperature is displayed, then release and press once again. Thisreturns the display to the PV (process variable), which should now closely match the Fluke

    calibrator.Allow a few minutes to stabilize and repeat this procedure as necessary to match the readings.Adjust as required until the heater controller and the calibrator readings match after stabilizing.

    EXAMPLE:If the temperature controller reading is 10F higher than the calibrator, enter a valueof (-10) to PVOF to correct for the error. This should be allowed to stabilize for several minutesand rechecked. If variance still exists, but the heater controller still displays 1F higher than theFluke calibrator, enter the PVOF parameter again and decrease the value by (-1), making thefinal value (-11). If necessary, repeat this process to further modify the PVOF setting until thereadings match consistently.

    When the readings match satisfactorily, remove the RTD from the Fluke drywell calibrator

    and replace it in it respective heater. Return the respective heater enable switch to the ONposition. Repeat this process for all four heaters and allow all heaters to stabilize at the newcalibrated settings before attempting to calibrate the DataLogger.

    Calibration DL3

    Introduction

    This software guide outlines procedure for calibrating McElroy DL3-series DataLogger. It is not intended to instructfusion operator on pipe fusing procedure. If necessary, please refer to the DataLogger manual for Bluetoothcommunication setup.

    This document is to be kept confidential and only provided to McElroy authorized calibration centers and personnel.

    Failure to comply with procedures outlined in this manual could cause data recording inaccuracy and invaliddocumentation.

    Each McElroy authorized calibration center is required to assign a calibration technician to be trained by McElroyand certified to perform DL3 DataLogger calibration.

    At the end of each calibration, the calibration technician is required to send a copy of the calibration data file toMcElroy at [email protected] for archive and documentation purposes.

    McElroy reserves the right to conduct inspections of the calibration stand and calibration procedure performed bythe authorize calibration technician to ensure compliance and proficiency.TX02826-1-6-09

    Update Firmware

    If it has been determined prior to the calibration procedure that the firmware is obsolete, refer to Instruction SheetDL1210101 and perform the procedure to update.

    Insert the batteries to power up the DataLogger and check for the red flashing LED. This is automatic after afirmware upgrade, but must be triggered with Calibration Plug DL9101 (DL6303 Wireless) or DL9102 (DL6304Wired) if not upgraded.

    Remove the pressure transducer from the coiled cord and insert the proper plug in the cable connector. When thered LED flashes, remove the plug and proceed. It is recommended to leave the pressure transducer disconnectedfrom the DataLogger until the actual pressure calibration procedure begins.TX04312-6-28-11

    Calibration Certificate

    Calibration certificates can be printed using the DL3-XP software onWindows desktop and notebook PC. This is the same software used to viewand print joint reports.

    Retrieving Calibration certificate requires the installation of MicroSoft Active-Sync on the desk PC or laptop. Post calibration test should be performedby connecting the PPC to the DataLogger and comparing temperatureand pressure readings to the preset heaters and pressure calibration gauge.

    Perform a faux joint report by entering data necessary to trigger alogging function and track a range of pressures by raising the pressure in thepressure calibrator in steps to determine that the DataLogger is reading andtracking temperature and pressure properly.

    Connecting the Digital Pressure Sender to Your PC

    To calibrate or update the firmware of your digital pressure sender, you must first connect it to your PC through yourPC's built in serial port or a USB to serial port converter.

    If you have neither a built-in serial port nor a USB to serial port converter, McElroy recommends MKH00146 - USBto serial port converter.

    Calibrating the Digital Pressure Sender

    To calibrate your McElroy digital pressure sender, youmust first connect it to your PC see instructions in sectionConnecting the Digital Pressure Sender to Your PC.
