P. 27 - Chap. 6 Handling and installation

The machine cooling air and the heating ducts (where relevant) must be dimensioned so that air speed does not exceed 3 m/s. The maxi-mum length of the ducts is 6 m. If this is not so, fit an auxiliary fan in the hot air duct.

Following installation of the hot air ducts, check that any back pressure, measured at the outfeed of the hot air from the compressor, does not exceed 30 Pa.

For guidance purposes, duct cross-section area should be equal to that of the compressor hot air outlet grill.Heat the environment if the minimum temperature required cannot be guaranteed.

Comply with the minimum distances from the walls shown in figure 14.

The position of the compressor in the room should allow easy inspections. If the compres-sor is installed in the working environment, keep at suitable safety distance according to the type of process carried out at the premises in order to prevent hazards or damage to the machine due to the products used.

The compressor should not be installed in a recess which does not allow correct ventila-tion. Hot air flow should not be obstructed in any way and recirculation must be prevented (Fig. 15).

When connecting the compressor to the receiver or to the distribution line, it is good practice to insert a hose of suitable size and specifi cations (pressure and temperature) connected to the MA sleeve. The compressed air lines must be in perfect conditions and suitably fastened.

P. 28 - Chap. 6 Handling and installation

This paragraph describes how to configure the compressor for remote starting and stopping of this. Alternatively, it is also possible to check operating mode (load / unload) or both functions by means of an external control logic.

The operations described must be carried out by a qualified electrician.To configure the remote control of the compressor, first of all remove the jumper between terminals 3 and 38 of the terminal strip inside the electrical cabinet (see wiring diagrams in Chapter 12)

One or two switches must be installed as described below according to whether only switching ON/OFF and/or operating mode is to be controlled.

In particular, hoses which are not perfectly secured may cause severe injuries due to unpredictable move-ments. Make sure that the hose ends are firmly secured before pressurizing them. The condensate drain must be connected to a collection system with a suitable pipe as established by local regulations for the disposal of polluting substances.

The electrical power system must include a main circuit breaker with line sectioning function that can be padlocked, with fuses or thermal cut-out suitably rated according to the characteristics of the machine, and a device against accidental contacts in order to protect personnel.The setting of the safety devices and the rating of the line circuit breaker must comply with the indications provided in the table of paragraph 4.6. The circuit breaker must be positioned close to the machine. Comply scrupulously with specifi c local accident prevention regulations.The power cables must have an adequate cross-section area for current take-off (see the table in paragraph 4.6).Electrical systems must comply with the rules of good workmanship and be installed by a qualifi ed electrician who must check the effi ciency of the earthing system. The power cable must be secured in the specific glands and the electrical panel must be tightly closed.Connect the machine only to type-approved sockets. The sockets must be earthed and tested.Have correct fastening of the electrical cables of the various components checked regularly by qualified personnel.Chapter 12 contains the operational and layout wiring diagrams of the auxiliary and power circuits. The same diagrams are also shown inside the machine control box.

P. 34 - Chap. 7 Start-up and operation

When the display shows “Load run” the intake valve is open and the machine operates at full load (produces the nominal capacity of compressed air).During functioning, delivery pressure increases; once the preset maximum line pressure threshold value has been reached, the control system sets the compressor to idling by closing the intake valve (“Unload run”). When the pressure drops below the preset minimum threshold value, the intake valve opens again and the machine restarts functioning at full load.The behavior of variable-speed compressors is similar but after the start-up phase in acceleration the machine modulates speed, searching for the target pressure, mid-way between the minimum and maximum pressure programmed.

Particular indications (error messages), additional information or the information of the management menu are displayed on LINE 3 and on LINE 4.If LINE 3 shows “Ready for start”, the compressor can be started.

The compressor is started by pressing the green K1-START key

At this point, the compressor may:a) start, displaying the messages referring to the start and functioning phasesb) prepare to start with the following message

In this case, network pressure is above the minimum threshold value set; the compressor will start automatically in the case of a request for air from the network

c) prepare to start with the following message

In this case, the remote control function has been enabled (see paragraph 7.4.2.3).The compressor will start when the remote command is received

d) prepare to start with the following message

In this case, the daily or weekly programming function has been enabled and the compressor is in the OFF programming phase (see paragraph 7.4.2.6). The compressor will start when an ON programming phase is initiated.

If the compressor does not start or none of the cases listed above occurs, refer to chapter 9.

P. 35 - Chap. 7 Start-up and operation

The compressor outputs the “Unload run” message, the machine never stops, always remaining available to restart production of compressed air immediately in the case of any request.

STOPPING the compressorMachine starting and stopping is timed.

Simply press the K2 button to stop the compressor

The compressor does not stop immediately but initiates a set of operations to stop the machine according to operating conditions when the STOP command is invoked. If, at the time of the STOP command, the compressor was operating at full load, the control unit sets the machine to unload run.

In fixed-speed compressors, display DI shows this count-down, at the end of which the motor is stopped.In variable-speed compressors the generic stop message is accompanied by deceleration of the motor.

If the K1-START key is pressed again before the preset timed restart time has passed, a new timing is shown on display D1 which indicates the time to compressor restart

This function prevents restarting the compressor when it is still pressurized, avoiding electrical motor verload.

At this point, the display shows this additional timing: during this phase, the compressor vents the pressure inside the separator reservoir preparing for subsequent restart.

For this reason, the percentage charge of the compressor is shown on the display.Variable-speed machines may also be characterized by idling in the case in which the minimum operating speed planned continues to produce excess air delivery in relation to that requested by the network.

During unload run, two cases may arise:

a) Setting of AUTOMATIC functioning (see paragraph 7.4.2.3):

The compressor outputs this message followed by a countdown.

At the end of the countdown, the compressor switches off, changing to “Stand-by auto start”, status, ready to restart in the case of a request for air

b) Setting of CONTIN. functioning (see paragraph 7.4.2.3):

Display settings Makes it possible to adjust the settings of the LCD display

Operating mode Compressor operating mode may be set AUTOMATIC or CONTINUOUS:AUTOMATIC: this is the setting used in most cases (factory setting). In this operating mode, idling is timed; at the end of the count, the compressor stops, preparing for subsequent automatic start-up (see also paragraph 7.3 STARTING the compressor). This promotes energy saving if there is no or a very low request for compressed air.

CONTINUOUS:this setting should be used in very particular applications characterized by a conside-rable variation in compressed air consumption combined with a reduced plant accumulation capacity. With this setting, the compressor starts unload run without ever stopping the motor and is therefore able to supply air continuously in the case of a request from the network. The system configured in this way is highly reactive. However, one of the drawbacks of this operating mode is that it entails higher power consumption due to the fact that the compressor is always running (see also paragraph 7.3 STARTING the compressor).

Compress. controlThis menu is used to select the compressor control method from the possible local / remote / program control options.If the compressor is equipped with a CAN-BUS interface, the network-continuous / network-program control options are also visible and can be selected.Compressor control can be set to:

LOCAL: this is the basic (factory) setting that permits control from the keyboard

REMOTE: with this setting, the compressor can be controlled by means of an external remote switch. For the electrical connections, refer to the following submenu (refer to the following paragraph “Type of remote control”)

PROGRAM: enables the daily or weekly programming set and enabled in the PROGRAMMING menu (see paragraph 7.4.2.6)

en

P. 46 - Chap. 7 Start-up and operation

NET-CONTINUOUS: this is the setting for control of a sequence of compressors, without daily/weekly program

NET-PROGRAM: this is the setting for control of a sequence of compressors according to the daily/weekly program set

Type of remote controlFor remote control, modifi cations must be made to the wiring of the compressor as described in paragraph 6.5.When compressor control is set to REMOTE (see previous submenu), three types of control methods are possible:

ON/OFF is the setting that makes it possible to control switching ON/OFF of the compressor. This is the factory setting (that most frequently used) which makes it possible to exploit the control logic of the compressor using the pressure signal measured locally by the machine

LOAD/UNLOAD is the setting that makes it possible to control full load and unload operation with an external control logic: in this case, the pressure signal measured by the compressor is ignored for the purposes of operating method control (the safety devices remain active)

ON/OFF - LOAD/UNLOAD is the setting that makes it possible to control both switching ON/OFF of the compressor and also operating mode. In this case also, an external control logic must be used as, for control purposes, the pressure signal is ignored (the safety devices remain active)

It should be remembered that control via the keyboard of the control unit always has priority over any remote control or any program: this means that, if remote control is to be effective, the START button must be pressed setting the compressor to “Stand-by rem. con.”. Similarly, the compressor can be stopped without any risk of remote restart of this by pressing the STOP key.

Therefore, to enable functioning with remote control:1) Make the modifications to the wiring connecting one / two switches as described in paragraph 6.52) Select REMOTE control3) Select the control method (ON/OFF, LOAD/UNLOAD, ON/OFF - LOAD/UNLOAD)4) Press the START key on the control unit to enable the compressor for remote control

P. 48 - Chap. 7 Start-up and operation

PrefillDefines the number of compressors that, at start-up of the system with network pressure nil or very low, participate in initial filling operations.The compressors involved in this operation are started quickly in sequence, thus avoiding any overlap of the start-up phases of two or more machines

Prefill timeThis is the time during which the system assumes the «override» set by the user with the “Prefill” parameter

Max No.compr. ONRestricts the total number of compressors that can operate at the same time to the number pro-grammed

Rotation timeThis is the time after which compressor start-up priorities are reassigned so that the work load is evenly distributed between the machines available over a long period of time

Reaction timesT ON When the control system activates a compressor following a reduction in network pressure, timer T ON is started: at the end of this count, the system checks network pressure to establish whether another compressor must be started

T OFF When the control system deactivates a compressor following an increase in network pressure, the T OFF timer is started: at the end of this count, the system checks network pressure to establish whether another compressor is to be deactivated

This menu is used to make the configuration settings referring to operating pressures and timings that regulate idling.

PressuresMAX. OPERATING PRESS.: The pressure above which the compressor starts to idle. The rated pressure of the machine represents the upper limit of this value.

MIN OPERATING PRESS.: The pressure below which the compressor restarts operation at full load (supply of compressed air) or at which it restarts if it has stopped at the end of unload run (no supply of air). This value must be set so that the minimum supply pressure to the pneumatic service points is guaranteed, taking into account losses of head of the distribution system. The minimum pressure value cannot be close to the maximum pressure by more than the factory setting (minimum difference).In variable-speed compressors, the target pressure of the control system is the average between the maximum and minimum pressure.

TimingsUNLOAD RUN TIME: This setting defi nes the time during which the compressor idles when there is no demand for air from the network. At the end of this period, the compressor stops and is ready to start again when network pressure has dropped below the minimum threshold value.

This parameter must be optimized according to the consumption trend of the network and its accumulation capacity.

This parameter is effective only if operating mode has been set to AUTOMATIC (see paragraph 7.4.2.3)

In the case of low consumption and if it is seen that the compressor remains inactive for long periods (motor stopped), it is advisable to reduce idling time so as to restrict power consumption during the inactive phases to a minimum. Low air consumption will also assure a limited number of automatic start-up operations of the compressor, thus promoting a further reduction in power consumption.

P. 49 - Chap. 7 Start-up and operation

en

PROGRAMMING menu 7.4.2.6

If air consumption is consistent and/or characterized by major variations, it is advisable to extend the idling time in order to “offset”, through the periods of idling, the various periods of operation at full load. This avoid stopping of the compressor with consequent delays in the supply of compressed air due to the start-up phases which are characterized by current take-off peaks tied to frequent starting.

The PROGRAMMING menu is used to set the schedule of compressor activities, defining the days and times when the compressor must be switched on. The compressor can be programmed on a daily basis (same for all the days) or on a weekly basis (a different program for each day of the week).

Reset programming:Makes it possible to cancel all the cycles set in both daily and weekly programming

Programming modeThis parameter informs the controller whether, once PROGRAM control has been activated (see paragraph 7.4.2.3), the machine must follow daily or weekly programming

Daily programmingDaily programming can be used to set up to four start/stop cycles. These cycles are repeated equally each day of the week.

The following rules apply:

The following rules apply:

Weekly programmingWeekly programming makes it possible to set different start/stop cycles for each day of the week, up to a maximum of three per day

Non-programmed cycles identified by the five hyphens that replace the time are not effective

Cycles for which the start and stop times coincide are not effective, similarly to those not program-med

If, in the last cycle programmed for a given day, the stopping time has been set to 24:00 and the first cycle programmed for the next day has been set to 00:00, the control unit will keep the compressor running during the change over at midnight from one day to the next

8 Compressorsin sequence

To establish communication between the control units, a communication module is required for each machine to be connected and the related connection cables.Therefore, contact your area dealer to purchase these.

The instructions for installation, programming and operation of the network of compressors are provided in the booklet furnished with the communication module.

The mc2 control unit includes all the control functions of the compressor on which it is directly installed.

For compressor rooms in which several machines equipped with this control unit are installed (up to a maximum of four units), a communication network can be set up between these for automatic, coordinated management of the compressors.

Communication between the compressors provides the following advantages:

constant pressure of the air supplied to pneumatic service points

energy saving:only the compressors necessary to supply the air required are activated

equal distribution of work load on the compressors available with consequent synchronization of scheduled maintenance operations

management of alarms and machine stoppages so as to prevent any interruption in the supply of compressed air

management of the network of compressors according to a program set by the user on a daily or weekly basis

Operating cycle 10.1

10MaintenancePerform the scheduled maintenance operations to maintain compressor performance.

Various routine maintenance operation can be carried out by user provided they are carried out by skilled personnel. If routine maintenance is provided by a Service Centre and the related confi guration has been pro-duced, the user cannot RESET the components even if these have been replaced by the user (see paragraph 7.4.2.2)

Use only original spare parts

Instructions are provided in the following paragraphs.

Before performing any maintenance operations read the operator safety precautions in chapter 5 carefully. These precautions must be followed scrupulously for all maintenance operations

The compressor unit consists of two rotors (male and female) with special asymmetrical profile, mounted on rolling bearings, The male rotor drives and the female rotor is driven. The two rotors are not indirect contact thanks to a thin film of oil which protects the coupled surfaces.The oil serves various purposes. It lubricates the bearings and the rotors, eliminates the heat produced by the compressed air, it creates an “airtight fluid seal” and reduces hazardous gaps in the air-end unit.In fixed speed compressors, starting is of the delta-star type. During the star phase, intake valve VA is closed, thus permitting no-load start-up with less effort and lower energy consumption.After a preset time of a few seconds, the PC control unit invokes changeover to the delta connection; with a short transient phase, the MP motor reaches rated rotation speed. The intake valve opens thus starting the normal work cycle.In variable speed compressors, the start-up phase takes place with acceleration of the electrical motor which, powered by the inverter, is brought to maximum speed of rotation compatible with network pressure.As soon as this is permitted by rotation speed, the intake valve VA opens and the machine work cycle begins.The air is drawn through the filter FA, passes into the air-end unit where it is mixed with the oil injected. The air is gradually compressed and pushed into the separator receiver where initial oil separation occurs by gravity.The air, which is still mixed with oil droplets, follows the shape of the receiver and passes through the FD oil separator. Due to the effect of coalescence, the droplets of oil merge and are deposited on the bottom of the filter from where they are routed towards the air-end unit by means of a pipe.The purified air passes through the check and minimum pressure valve VR which opens only when a threshold of approximately 4 bar is exceeded. This ensures correct system lubrication in all operating conditions.The oil deposited on the bottom of receiver SS is conveyed under pressure to the oil cooler RO where it is cooled. Oil temperature is electronically managed by the control panel PC; the oil passes into filter FO and returns to the air end.Temperature sensor STO inserted in the air end and connected to the microprocessor permits constantmonitoring of the temperature inside the air-end unit.

General maintenance operation table 10.2

The capacity delivered is controlled differently on fi xed speed and variable speed machines. In fixed speed compressors, once the rated running pressure has been reached, the intake valve closes. The internal receiver pressure is vented to reach a value of approximately 2 bars.This value is obtained by means of minimal amount of intake air through the intake valve. This ensures that the pressure required for correct system lubrication is maintained. Consequently, the machine can idle with reduced power intake.After the predefi ned “idling” time, the machine stops, ready to start again automatically if the pressure drops below the minimum threshold.In variable speed compressors, the control system modifies speed of rotation in order to reach and maintain an average pressure between the minimum and maximum pressure set.In the case of very low air consumption, once the maximum operating pressure has been reached, the com-pressor switches to idling as described for the fixed speed compressorIn this case, the duration of the idling phase is shorter; at the end of this phase, the compressor stops, ready for subsequent automatic restart.The operator-controlled machine stopping phases also differ as regards the two types of compressor.For fixed speed machines, ordinary stopping is timed; the machine is set to «idling» and the receiver is gradually discharged.For variable speed machines, the stopping phase is controlled through ramping down of the motor, during which the system is depressurised.The machine is also protected against any type of overpressure (internal faults or faults in other compressors in parallel).
