Description Attribute

2:Identification

Data for machine identification (OPC 40001-1).

ContainerOpen

Indicates that the filter aid reservoir is not closed.

DosageAmount

The amount of filter aid that is added per cycle.

FilterAidDeviceStatus

Describes the action performed by the dosage unit (see FilterAidDeviceStatusEnum).

FillingLevel

The filling level describes the amount of filter aid in the pre-storage reservoir.

Malfunction

Indicates that the filter aid device is malfunctioning. True in case of error. Malfunctions can be, for example, that there is no more filter aid or that there is a malfunction in the subsystems of the filter aid device.

4:MachineryItemState

StateMachine representing the operating state of the device (OPC 40001-1).

CompressedAirSupplyInterrupted

Indicates that the air supply is interrupted.

PowerConsumption

Describes the current power consumption of the filter aid device.

AirConsumption

Describes the compressed air consumption.

DosingRequested

Indicates that the filter system requests dosing.

AutomaticDosingEnabled

If enabled, the filter aid device is allowed to perform dosing automatically.

If the filter aid reservoir is opened or closed, the event ContainerOpenConditionType will be triggered.

The event CompressedAirSupplyInterruptedAlarmType is triggered when the compressed air supply is interrupted.

When the value FilterAidDeviceStatus changes, the event FilterAidDeviceStatusChangedConditionType is triggered. The event contains a copy of the status value.

The server sends a MalfunctionAlarmType event when the Malfunction property changes.
