Installing the R4000 Endpoint

Updated over 4 months ago

Before you Begin

  1. Ensure that the R4000 EP variation you are using is compatible with the machine classification, environment, conditions, and restrictions.

    • For Non-High-G machines that are classified as HazLoc/HZ, use the R4000.

    • For Non-High-G machines and machines classified as Non-HazLoc/HZ use the R4000-NHZ.

    • For Non-High-G machines and machines classified as Non-HazLoc/HZ in extremely wet environments (such as wash down, high humidity, or wet environment as part of the manufacturing process) use the R4000-WR.

  2. Conduct a risk analysis to identify all the types of potential risks that might be involved with the installation:

    • Specific Hazardous Locations risks
      Areas are specified as hazardous when containing (not limited to) the following three fundamental components:

      • A flammable substance (which can be a gas, liquid, or solid).

      • An oxidizer.

      • Any source of ignition.

        These Hazardous areas require using specific equipment certified for use in areas where these three ingredients may pose the risk of explosion. Class I, Division 2, or Class II Division 2 or ATEX Zone 2, Zone 22 classified locations.

    • General Safety related risks:

      • Hazards from rotating or moving components.

      • Hazards from energized electrical equipment.

      • Hazards related to confined spaces (Permit required AND Non-permit).

      • Risks associated with any other form of potential energy.

      • Slip, trip, and fall-related hazards.

      • Risks related to working on heights.

      • Hazards related to extreme heat and cold.

Preparing the R4000 EP: unpack and test

image.png

  1. Remove the EP from the box.

    image.png

  2. Peel off the tamper sticker.

    image.png

  3. Place the EP on a static, flat surface, press the top button to turn the EP on, and begin the self-test.

    image.png

    A successful self-test will display 2 LEDs showing constant green for 5 seconds followed by green and orange LEDs blinking alternately.

    image.png

    A failed self-test will display a constant or blinking red LED. If an EP fails a self-test, clearly label it, pack it separately, and return it to Augury.

Preparing the R4000 EP: Fin or Flat mount

  1. If you use a flat mount (1), apply Loctite 242 onto the mount thread.
    If you are using a fin mount (2), insert the fin stud through the lock nut first, then apply the Loctite 242 onto the lock nut thread.

    image.png

  2. Use a 22mm open-end wrench to tighten the mount to the EP.

    image.png

  3. If you need to secure the EP onto the machine, insert the securing wire (tether) through the EP base and/or mount before attaching the mount to the EP.

Note!

If you use the Drill & Tap method to mount the EP onto the machine and not the adhesive/epoxy method described above, refer to the Drill & Tap Quick Guide for instructions (coming soon).

Preparing the machine

image.png

  1. Strip all the paint and epoxy to the bare metal at the mounting location using site/environment-approved tools.

    1. For Flat mounts - clean off a diameter of ~1.5-2 inches (40-50mm).

    2. For Fin mounts - clean off the motor fin top, side, and bottom where the mount will make contact.

    3. Clean the surface with a degreaser and lint-free rags so the mounting surface is free of paint, grease, or dirt.

  2. If you’re working in a cold environment or on a cold machine, use a cordless blower to heat the machine's surface and mount it.

  3. Apply the activator onto the EP’s designated mounting location.

  4. Apply the activator onto the mount and wait 10 seconds.

  5. Apply the adhesive on the mount.

  6. Apply the activator on the mount.

Mounting the EP on the machine

image.png
  • Place the EP on the machine while ensuring that the “X” mark is aligned with the machine shaft/axis.

  • Gently press the EP towards the machine and hold it firmly until the adhesive is cured enough for the EP to hold in place by itself.

  • The amount of time you hold will depend on the surface and ambient temperatures.

Mapping and validating

  1. Log into the Halo app.
    If you don’t have the app installed, scan the QR code with your Android's camera to download it.

  2. Begin Mapping: Select the ActiveJob from the FieldsJob screen and then select the area where the machine is located.

    image.png

  3. Select the applicable machine from the list and then select the machine bearing you want to map.

  4. Enable NFC scanning and hold the phone closer to the EP until the scan is completed.
    In case the NFC scanning fails, Enable NFC, and scan again until you achieve success.

  5. Locate the applicable plan and orientation from the drop-down menu. Verify or modify accordingly to reflect how the EP is mounted.

  6. From the same screen, select the camera icon and take up to 3 pictures of the EP mounted on the machine. Click Apply and repeat steps 2 - 6 for all mounted EPs.

    image.png

  7. Use the magnifying glass to manually enter the EP’s SN.
    Finally, verify connectivity and battery levels within the acceptable range.
