If the compressor element outlet temperature exceeds a
programmed value below the shut-down level, this will also be
indicated to warn the operator before the shut-down level is
reached.
Monitoring components subject to service
The regulator continuously monitors the oil, oil filter, oil separator
and air filter. Each input is compared to programmed time
intervals. If these limits are exceeded, a message will appear on
the display (Fig. 7a) to warn the operator to replace the indicated
component.
Automatic restart after voltage failure
For compressors leaving the factory, this function is made inactive.
If desired, the function can be activated. Consult Atlas Copco.
If activated and provided the module was in the automatic
operation mode, the compressor will automatically restart if the
supply voltage to the module is restored within a programmed time
period.
The regulator has following functions:
Controlling the compressor
The regulator maintains the net pressure between programmable
limits by automatically loading and unloading the compressor. A
number of programmable settings, e.g. the unloading and loading
pressures, the minimum stop time and the maximum number of
motor starts are taken into account.
The regulator stops the compressor whenever possible to reduce
the power consumption and restarts it automatically when the net
pressure decreases. In case the expected unloading period is too
short, the compressor is kept running to prevent too-short standstill
periods.
Protecting the compressor
If the compressor element outlet temperature exceeds the
programmed shut-down level, the compressor will be stopped. This
will be indicated on the control panel (Fig. 7a). The compressor will
also be stopped in case of overload of compressor motor (M1) or
fan motor (M2). 1)
