P.A.-tronic CONTROL UNIT Volume flow dependent cycle control system with monitoring

For this operating mode the central lubricating feed mechanism is switched on in the cycle of
settings at the KS 1 coding switches on the basis of time or machine stroke, and switched off on
reaching the variable pulse count from the signal transmitters, e.g. proximity switches attached to
progressive distributors.

1. System ON: When the system is switched on, the control system begins the cycle with the
lubrication process.
2. The monitoring time for the fill level switch is set with each closing pulse over the duration of the
closing time and with the beginning of the pause. If the contact is opened for longer than one
minute during the pump operating time or does not close at least once for a pump run time of
less than 1 min, a fault message occurs.
3 After reaching the set target count (closing pulses) of signal transmitters 1 and 2 (in the
example 1 stroke) the pump's operating time (AZ) is ended. If more pulses than the set target
count enter from a signal transmitter, the signals are suppressed.
4. Fresh switching on of the pump occurs on expiry of the set cycle time and/or cycle strokes (AZ
+ PZ). I
Important: If the set cycle time and/or cycle strokes are shorter than the pump run time (AZ),
the next cycle begins without the pump switching off.
5. The cycle time sequence can be interrupted by closing of the contact at input B1 for the
duration of the connection.
6. If the set target stroke count is not reached by a signal transmitter within the set monitoring
time, or no closing pulse is given from the fill level switch within 1 min and/or the pump run time,
the fault message relay is released.
7. The system can be actuated with the reset button.
During an interruption of the power supply, control units with memory collect the parameters which are shown
with in the diagram.
After the system has been started again, the program continues at the interrupted position. After an interruption of
the power supply during a lubricating cycle the whole program is started new (start with AZ).

Setting
1. Cycle time and/or machine strokes
Setting and preselection to time or stroke operation takes place at the KS 1 coding switches in
accordance with the table on the last fold-down cover page.
It must be taken into account that no switching off of the pump occurs if the pump run time is
longer than the set cycle time. Continuous lubrication is achieved with this setting.
2. Operating options
Setting the operating mode and functions takes place at the KS 2 coding switches.
Two programs can be preselected on the basis of the signal transmitters' pulse count and the
monitoring time:

a) Input pulses from the signal transmitter adjustable to 1, 3, 6 or 9


Monitoring time adjustable to 0.5 or 1...7 min
Operating mode switch positions:
3 OFF Switches 1, 2 and 3 to OFF position
KS 2 2 OFF

Monitoring time switch positions:


8 OFF 8 OFF 8 OFF 8 ON
KS 2 KS 2 KS 2 KS 2
7 OFF 7 OFF 7 ON 7 OFF
6 OFF 6 ON 6 OFF 6 OFF

Basic time 30 sec 1 min + 2 min + 4 min 7 min


By setting switches 6...8 in combination, values of 3, 5, 6 and 7 min can be set, e.g.: switches 7 and
8 to ON = 6 min.

b) Input pulse from the signal transmitter adjustable to 2, 5, 10 or 15

By setting switches 6...8 in combination, further values of 15, 25, 30 and 35 min can be set, e.g.
switches 6 and 7 to ON = 15 min.

Note:
The monitoring time must be set at least to the time required for the volumetric displacement of the
lubricant pump to achieve the set pulse sequence, e.g. from a progressive distributor, at the signal
transmitter. If two signal transmitters are connected, via inputs B2 and B3, both must reach the set
target stroke count.

Commissioning
The equipment can be commissioned if it runs in the system according to diagram, the lubricant
tank is filled up and the control unit is wired to plan and checked.

If the target values for the cycle, signal transmitter pulses (distributor stroke count) and monitoring
time desired for the later operation of the equipment are set at commissioning, a fault message may
occur on expiry of the monitoring time until the main pipes have been completely filled.
Therefore we recommend:
a) after each fault message switch on again with the reset button
b) set the cycle time to the lowest value and/or
c) the monitoring time to the highest value and/or
d) the pulse count for the signal transmitter(s) to the lowest value.

After filling of all the pipework up to the points of friction the target values (cycle etc.) must be reset.

For central grease lubrication systems in particular, the signal transmitters' pulses may enter in a
different timing sequence.
The monitoring time must therefore be set at least to the highest measured timing sequence.

If only one signal transmitter is connected, the B2 and B3 inputs must be bridged. If there is no fill
level control, the B4 input must be connected to +24V DC.

During periods of machine standstill, it is recommended that the cycle timeout be used, to avoid
excessive lubrication of the machine.

Important: Any alteration to a switch setting at KS 1 and KS 2 when the equipment is switched on
requires confirmation with the reset button.

P.A.-tronic CONTROL UNIT Operating time cycle control system without volume flow monitoring

Start up
The equipment can be commissioned if it runs in the system according to diagram, the lubricant
tank is filled up and the control unit is wired to plan and checked.
To fill the lubricant pipes continuous operation can be achieved by initial setting of a longer
operating time and shorter cycle time.
If there is no fill level control the B4 input must be connected to +24V DC.
Set the target values for the cycle and the operating time after all pipework up to the points of
friction has been filled.
During periods of machine standstill (pause in the case of switched on operating voltage) it is
recommended that the cycle time and operating time intermission via inputs B1 and B2 be used to
avoid excessive lubrication of the machine. Alternatively, by connecting the B3 input the start with
pause option can be used if no lubrication is required when the control system is switched on.

Operational status indicator


Identification of the operational status is given by the indicator lamps in the control unit. A fault can
be cleared with actuation of the reset button.

Signal light Evaluation

H1 ON 1. System is switched on and is working without faults


H2 OFF The control system can be turned back with the reset button and for
start with lubrication (B3 open) the lubrication cycle can be restarted.
2. System is switched on, the lubrication cycle is not being repeated
Cause: a) Pause timeout set (contact of +24 V DC closed at B1)
b) For desired cycle operating mode "machine stroke count"
switch 1 of KS1 not set to ON
c) For desired cycle operating mode "time dependent" switch
1 of KS1 not set to OFF.
d) Operating timeout set (contact of +24 V DC closed at B2).

H1 flashes The contact from the fill level switch is not closed and/or is not closing in
H2 OFF sequences of < 1 min or within the pump run time
Cause: a) Lack of lubricant
b) Switching point from the transmitter maladjusted and/or
defective or the medium is not activating the switch
c) No fill level switch installed (bridge B4 with +24V DC).

Operating sequence
1. System ON: When the system is switched on, the control system begins the cycle with the
lubrication process.
2. The monitoring time for the fill level switch is set with each closing pulse over the duration of
the closing time and with the start of the pause. If the contact is opened for longer than 1 min
during the pump operating time or does not close at least once during a pump run of less than
1 min, a fault message occurs.
3. The pump run time is determined by the operating time set at the control unit.
4. Fresh switching on of the pump occurs on expiry of the set cycle time and/or cycle strokes (AZ
+ PZ).
Important: If the set cycle time and/or cycle strokes are shorter than the pump run time (AZ),
the next cycle begins without the pump switching off.
5. The cycle time sequence can be interrupted by closing of the contact at input B1 for the
duration the
of connection.
6. If a minimum of two signal exchanges (distributor cycles) are not performed by each signal
transmitter within the operating time or no closing pulse is given by the fill level switch within 1
min and/or the operating time, the fault message relay is released.
7. The system can be actuated with the reset button.
During an interruption of the power supply, control units with memory collect the parameters which are shown
with in the diagram.
After the system has been started again, the program continues at the interrupted position. After an interruption of
the power supply during a lubricating cycle the whole program is started new (start with AZ).

P.A.-tronic CONTROL UNIT Operating time cycle control system with volume flow monitoring

Start up
The equipment can be commissioned if it runs in the system according to diagram, the lubricant
tank is filled up and the control unit is wired to plan and checked.
To fill the lubricant pipes continuous operation can be achieved by initial setting of a longer
operating time and shorter cycle time. If there is a malfunction, start the equipment again with the
reset button.
If only one signal transmitter is connected, inputs B2 and B3 must be bridged. If there is no fill level
control, the B4 input must be connected to +24V DC.
Set the target values for the cycle and the operating time after all pipework up to the points of
friction has been filled.
During periods of machine standstill (pause in the case of switched on operating voltage) it is
recommended that the cycle time timeout be used to avoid excessive lubrication of the machine.

Operational status indicator


Identification of the operational status is given by the indicator lamps in the control unit. Any fault
can be cleared with actuation of the reset button.

Signal light Evaluation

P.A.-tronic CONTROL UNIT Cycle control for dual line systems with monitoring

In this operating mode the central lubrication pump is activated during the time of pressure rising of
both main lines, depending on time or machine cycles and corresponding to the settings of the KS1
coding switches.
After the pressure rise signal of main line 1 follows the switching-over to main line 2. The pressure
in main line 2 rises and the pressure rise signal comes again. The time of the pressure rise is
monitored.

1. System ON: After the system has been switched ON, the control unit starts the cycle with a
lubricating process. The pump is activated.
2. The monitoring time of the level switch is set for each closing pulse for the duration of the
closing time and with the beginning of the break. A fault message comes if the contact is
opened for more than 1 minute during working time of the pump or if the contact is not closed
for at least one time during a working time of the pump of less than 1 minute.
3. Electric switch-over: After the operating pressure in main line 1 has been reached, the
directional control valve is switched over to main line 2 by a pressure signal of the differential
pressure switch. After the operating pressure in main line 2 has been reached, the directional
control valve and the pump is switched off. The time of pressure rise is monitored.
4. Hydraulic-mechanic pressure switch-over unit: The switching-over is regulated by pressure.
A switch at the switch-over unit controls the working time of the pump and monitores the
pressure rise time.
5. After the adjusted cycle time had passed, the pump is switched on again (AZ + PZ).
Important: If the adjusted cycle time is shorter than the working time of the pump (AZ), the next
cycle starts without break time of the pump.
6. The cycle time can be interrupted by closing the contact of input B1.
7. If there comes no pressure rise signal from the differential pressure switch or the switch-over
unit in the adjusted monitoring time, or the level switch sends no closing signal within 1 minute
or the working time, the fault message relay reacts.
8. The system can be started with the reset key.
During an interruption of the power supply, control units with memory collect the parameters which are shown
with in the diagram.
After the system has been started again, the program continues at the interrupted position. After an interruption of
the power supply during a lubricating cycle the whole program is started new (start with AZ).

Flowchart >with final lubrication<


After the pressure rise signal of main line 1 + 2 and the reset of the monitoring time the final
lubrication starts for the same period. This ensures the pressure rise up to the end of the main lines
even if the pressure switch is installed at the beginning of the lines.
Setting
1. Cycle time
The setting of the cycle time happens with the KS1 coding switches according to the table on
the last page.
Please note: If the setting of the working time of the pump is longer than the cycle time, the
pump works continuously = permanent lubrication.
2. Operating options
The settings of operating mode and operating functions are made with the KS1 + 2 coding
switches.

P.A.-tronic CONTROL UNIT Cycle control for dual line systems with monitoring

Start up
The system can be taken into operation after it has been installed correctly, the reservoir has been
filled and the control unit has been connected and checked.
Fault messages at the filling of the main lines can be avoided by initial setting of a longer operating
time. A shorter cycle time means permanent operation.
After a malfunction, the system can be started again with the RESET-key.
Systems with switch-over signal by a differential pressure switch or pressure switches can be filled
faster, if the final lubrication (KS1, switch 1 ON) is activated.
Without level switch wire input B4 with +24 V DC.
After filling all lines, adjust the target values for cycle and monitoring time.
During standstill times of the machine (break with switched on operating voltage) we recommend to
use the cycle time lock to avoid excessive lubrication of the machine.

Operating status indication


The signal lights of the control unit indicate the operating status. Each malfunction can be cancelled
with the RESET-key.

Signal light Evaluation


H1 ON 1. System is activated and works without malfunction
H2 OFF - Reset of the system with the RESET-key to start a new lubricating cycle
2. System is activated, the lubricating cycle is not repeated
Cause: break time lock is set (contact +24 V DC to B1 is closed)
H1 ON 3. The pump is in operation, main line II is triggered by H2
H2 ON
H1 OFF 1. System not activated/connected
H2 OFF
2. The operating pressure was not reached within the monitoring time
Cause: a) Air in the main line
b) Delivery rate of the pump too low
c) Operating pressure of the pump too low
d) Transmitter not connected to B2
3. The contact of the pressure monitoring of main line II did not open
Cause: a) Pressure in main line II does not go down to the reset
signal value of the pressure switch
b) Differential pressure switch: The necessary pressure
difference between the 2 main lines was not reached
because pressure in line I was too low or the necessary
pressure relief in line II has not been achieved

H1 flashing See above, but with inverted main line identification (main line II at input B3)
clock rate 0,1 sec

H1 flashing The contact of the level switch is not closed / closes not within <1 min or
H2 OFF within the working time of the pump
Cause: a) lack of lubricant
b) switching point of the transmitter not adjusted or the
lubricant doesn´t activate the switch
c) no level switch installed (connect a bridge +24 V DC to B4)

P.A.-tronic CONTROL UNIT Time/machine stroke setting table

Cycle setting tables


The setting of the cycle, on the basis of time or machine stroke, and cycle monitoring, is carried out
on coding switches 1 to 8 of KS 1 (see pages 33 - 36).
Setting in accordance with the timing table:
a) in time mode set switch 1 of KS 1 to OFF (in direction of printed circuit board)
b) preselect the time stage (range preselection) at switches 2...4 of KS 1.
c) carry out the fine adjustment at coding switches 5...8 of KS 1. All times set in the ON position at
coding switches 5...8 (switched away from the printed circuit board) form the total time by
addition.

Setting example
Specification: cycle time 90 min
KS 1 switch positions:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Setting: Switch 1 = OFF : time preselection


Switch 2 + 3 = ON : time range 7.5 to 225 min
Switch 6 = ON : time value 30 min
Switch 7 = ON : time value 60 min
total time 90 min
Cycle timeout
The cycle time sequence can be interrupted by closing the contact at input B1 for the duration of the
connection.

Setting in accordance with machine stroke table:


a) in stroke mode set switch 1 of KS 1 to ON (switched away from the printed circuit board)
b) preselect the stroke stage (range preselection) at switches 2...4 of KS 1
c) carry out the fine adjustment at coding switches 5...8 of KS 1. All strokes set in the ON position
at coding switches 5...8 (switched away from the printed circuit board) form the total stroke
count by addition.

Setting example
Specification: cycle time 600
machine strokes
KS 1 switch positions: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Setting: Swtich 1 = ON : machine stroke count preselection


Switch 2 + 3 = ON : count range 50 to 1500 strokes
Switch 6 = ON : count value 200 strokes
Switch 7 = ON : count value 400 strokes
total 600 machine strokes

Reset
On actuation of the reset button, all operating parameters are restored to the switch-on status and
the program only restarted when the switch opens. The fault message relay is not released,
therefore no fault message occurs.

Important: Any alteration to a switch setting at KS 1 and KS 2 when the equipment is switched on
requires confirmation with the reset button.
