1. Stop the machining process: First of all, stop the machining center immediately to avoid further damage to the oil-water separator.
2. Check the oil-water separator: Check the inlet and outlet of the oil-water separator to make sure there is no blockage. If a blockage is found, remove the blockage and make sure the inlet and outlet are clear.
3. Empty the oil-water separator: If there is too much oil-water mixture in the oil-water separator, it may lead to an overload alarm. Empty the oil-water separator periodically to prevent this from happening.
4. Check the oil-water separator capacity: Depending on the usage of the CNC machining center, check if the oil-water separator capacity is sufficient. If the capacity is insufficient, it may be necessary to upgrade to a higher capacity oil-water separator.
5. Regular Maintenance: Ensure that the oil-water separator is regularly maintained according to the manufacturer's recommendations. This includes regular replacement of filter elements, cleaning of the unit, and inspection of seals.
6. Reduce oil and water discharges: Check the cutting fluid system of the CNC machining center to ensure that there are no excessive discharges of oil and water mixtures. Emissions can be reduced by adjusting cutting parameters, improving the cutting fluid recovery system, etc.
7. Contact a professional: If none of the above methods solves the problem, it is recommended to contact the manufacturer of the CNC machining center or a professional technician for inspection and repair.
Please note that it is important to make sure that safety procedures are followed when dealing with oil-water separator overload alarms to prevent accidents.
