Balancing procedure check

Requirements to perform a correct balance

Beaters and pockets emptying

To empty all the beaters and pockets launch the following steps from F3 Manual:

Once drain stops proceed to next step.

Sensors check
Tap F9 Test -> 159753 OK -> F6 Motor Test

Observe X - Y – Alb (SV2-SV1-SV3) this are the value of unbalancing sensors, they MUST be:

20000 +/- 400 poins.

For example, on the image X is not properly set, a sensor regulation is recommended.

Sensors regulation
SV1 (ALB) The operation must be done
with machine empty and
door open
fixing rings

Sensor regulation can be do

unscrewing the fixing rings

Then screw or unscrew the

sensor until reached the
value desired.

20000 +/- 400

SV2 (X) Pay attention: when

screwing back the fixing
rings the value may vary for
some points.

To set the target value try

some times until reaching it.

SV3 (Y)

Attention! ON Medium speed the X and Alb are together

Static pressure check

Static pressure (with no valves open) must be 3 bar, a too high pressure or too low pressure will cause an
injection failure.

Looking at previous image to regulate the pressure unscrew the fixing ring (1) and screw to increase or
unscrew to decrease the pressure until reached desired value.

Rotation check
Rotation is fundamental to perform a right water injection in beaters and pockets, so check well that
when machine starts rotating goes CCW (Counter Clock Wise)

From Motor Test page:

Tap F9 Test -> 159753 OK -> F6 Motor Test

F4 Enable – F5 Enable – F7 First

Arrow up 10 and look to lower window

Dynamic pressure and flow check

With the previous rotation enabled tap on:

P1 – the water starts to flow in Beater 1, as

displayed in the grey field

Run on inlet water group and observe the

pressure gauge.

The pressure Gauge (1) should point the 2-2,5 bar

Looking at Flow meter we have to read a value

minimum 37 maximum 42 litres per minute.

Value of pressure or flow too high or too low will

affect negatively the balancing calculation
1 process, leading to a longer balancing step or a
2 failure.

 Fast spinning parameters
Parameters page 4/14 (radial params) 1. Beaters emptying (Optional)

Beaters and pockets emptying phase, low speed is

needed to allow water to drain down, during 30” fixed
time.

1. Unbalance value at control speed: the value is

checked @ 100 rpm
2. First unbalance value: max radial value @140rpm
3. Last unbalance value: max radial value @ “Last
balance speed rpm” parameter on the left
4. Spinning unbalance value: max radial value @ end
speed
5. Tilting unbalance value: limit* @tilting before
spinning
6. First gear unbalance limit: limit* @117 rpm
7. Second gear unbalance limit<300: as describes
8. Second gear unbalance limit<300: as describes

Limit: the value in the red box

TIP – from 0 rpm until reached maximum speed MAX
unbalancing value is constantly checked and
compared to “First gear MAX unbalancing”, in case of
exceeding this value the fast spinning is aborted and
an error message is displayed.

Parameters page 12/14 (trasversal params)

Leave the red outlined parameters as in the original

params.
1. First gear unbalancing limit: limit* @117 rpm
2. Second gear unbalance limit<300: as describes
3. Second gear unbalance limit<300: as describes
4. Unbalance value at control speed: @100rpm
5. First unbalance value:@140rpm
6. Last unbalance value: max transversal value @
“Last balance speed rpm” parameter on page 4
7. Tilting unbalance value: limit* @tilting before
spinning
8. Speed change for radial balance:
9. Speed change for transverse balance:
10. Balancing timeout:

Note: To be verified - If the parameters at page 4 n. 1,2,3,4,5 compared to page 12 n. 4,5,6,7,8 are
higher?Lower? the machine behave like a Medium speed, bringing the sensor X & Y in Motor test at the
same value.
