start com m and. Along w ith the start com m and , the solenoid of the w ater shut
valve [provided in the com p pack return cool ing water line] is de-energised so th
water flow to the compressor pack is on.
The Regulator verify the start perm issive checks , alarm / shut dow n conditions a

m inim um tim e of 25 seconds is required for the oil pressure to build up and m o
accelerate to full speed. M essage on LC D screen changes from "Status unloaded"
"Status Loaded".
The oil pressure, is bypassed during initial start up.In case the oil pressure does no

running in unloaded condition , till the air net pressure fall and reach the reload
pressure [set point - lower band]. At the net pressure falling to a level of the reloa
pressure , the compressor once again automatically shall start running in loaded
condition and the above narrated cycle repeat itself depending on the air net pressu
trend.
This is the automatic operation of the compressor, since depending on the trend of
net pressure [based on air consumption], the compressor automatically switches its
to load or unload mode of operation.

amount of air drawn in from the atmosphere shall get in to the com pressor gets
compressed and blown out to atmosphere through blow-off silencer.This condition shall
continue till the air pressure at discharge PT falls to a level of reloading pressure (8.1
Kg/Cm2).
C .2 .2 ] Loadin g:
As soon as the air net pressure reach the level of reload pressure , the Electroniko
Regulator gets this input through the pack discharge air pressure sensor . The
Regulator shall re-energise the load - unload solenoid valve . As soon as this happen ,
the trapped air in the Throttle valve system escapes to atm osphere through the
solenoid valve and the Throttle valve shal l open and start admitting the desired
quantity of air in to the compressor and the compressor shall start running on ful
once again.
C .2 .3 ] R egu lation :
The regulator m aintains the air net pres sure between programmable limits by
automatically loading & unloading the compressor. A number of programmable
settings like unloading pressure , loading pressure , load delay , N um ber of starts
hour , Minimum stop time , Power recovery time , Restart delay , Motor start mode
Pressure band selection , Control mode selection , Auto restart etc. are param eter
which are programmable in the Regulator . The regulator stops the compressor
w henever
[programmable] time period in unload mode , to reduce the power consumption an
restarts it automatically when the air net pressure decreases. In case the expected
stop period is too short, then
The compressor is kept running in unload mode to prevent restart respecting m in
time and number of motor starts per hour etc.
For HT motors driven air compressors the number of motor starts is limited to 3 s
per hour and in betw een each start 20 m inute tim e period has to be respected an
hence programmed accordingly.
C .2 .4 ] S ervice W
Following service warning information shall automatically appear on the LCD screen of the
Regulator panel.
Replace air filter [ Delta P based ]
Replace oil filter [ 8000hrs/ Anually ]
Oil change required [ 16000 Hrs/ once in 2 yrs ]
Main motor regreasing required [ as indicated on M otor N am e Plate ]
These informations are a function of time and differential pressure settings.
Depending on the time and the set pressure the elektronikon panel w ill flash this
information so that the operator can notice this service intervention required and
accordingly plan for these routine m aintenance requirem ent. O nce the requ
m aintenance activities are attended, the operator can reset these w arnings.

D] Manual Operation
After the compressor is started as mentioned above in C.1] The compressor can be
unloaded manually by pressing the load / unload function key on the Elektronikon
panel at any point in time. The compressor can be put on load by pressing back the
load / unload function key once again.
E] S topp in g th e C om
Com pressor can be stopped by,
E.1 ] M an u al S top
Press Stop button. This stop mode is called programmed stop and the Compressor
automatically goes into unload condition. Compressor runs in unloaded condition for a
pre determined time period as per the compressor logic. After this unloads, running
the stop com m and shall be executed.
E.2] Emergency Stop
Press the mushroom type, Emergency STOP button. The general alarm LED in the
panel blinks. The stop com m and shall get executed instantaniously due to em ergency
in nature [unlike a programmed stop command w herein the com pressor unload first
and run in unload mode for a predetermined tim e period as per logic before stopping].
But one must unlock the emergency stop button by turning it anticlockwise after
correcting the fault condition or em ergency condition before attempting for restar
E.3 ] Trip
In case of any param eters exceeding the shut dow n lim its, as provided as per th
diagram of compressor, the block relay contact in the Elektronikon regulator open and
the compressor trip.
After a Trip occurs, one has to look in to the cause for the trip and rem edy the cau
before restarting the com pressor. Before restarting, after the rectification of the fault,
the fault responsible for the trip needs to be reset. Com pressor w ill not restart w ithin a
programmed time of 20 sec [Due to number of motor starts per hour / Minimum stop
period].
After a stop, however, in case a start command is given within this period the
Regulator will memorize the same and compressor w ill restart after the m inim um stop
tim e has lapsed.
F.1] MODBUS CONNECTION TO PLC [MAIN PLANT CONTROL ROOM] - FOR THE
PURPOSE OF MONITORING
The com pressors thus form ed into a C AN -net w ork is connected to a Com box-S / M odbus
hardware, which converts the CAN protocol used by the Elektronikon Microprocessor into
the Modbus RTU protocol. This Combox-S Modbus hardware has a port for connection to
PLC station or the compressor control room.

The node address for all the compressors connected in the CAN-network shall be defined.
Similarly, the node address for each compressor shall be defined from the PLC end also,
that is on the MODBUS side.
W hatever m ay be the m ode of operation [REM O TE, LO C AL], m onitoring of the connected
compressors is possible through Modbus Link.
The developm ent of suitable softw are, for the pu rpose of such monitoring of the individual
com pressor from PLC, shall be w ith AC IL's scope.
U ser guide : Electronikon M KIV - M odbus shall be provided by ACI , giving M odbus
addresses to facilitate developm ent of suitable softw are by PLC ve ndor at the PLC end.
This user guide give information related to addresses for essential parameters
The Com box-S [M odbus] has RS485 port , suitable for 0.5 m m 2, 2 X 2 tw isted pair overall
screened / shielded cable , for connection to PLC.
All the additional inputs, digital or analog (i.e. Flow switch, Dew point meter etc..) other
than specific to com pressors are taken directly to PLC, processed and necessary output in
terms of Alarm & indication in the system mimic, are displayed on the operator work
station m onitors of the PLC.
F.2] HARD WIRED CONNECTION TO PLC [M A IN P LA N T C O N TR O L R O O M ] - FO R
THE PURPOSE OF LIMITED CONTROL OPERATION
The hard w ired connection of the individual com pressors to the PLC is for the purpose of
"Remote start-stop control operation".
In this case , the limited control operation of start-stop can be accomplished through
either by having the required sw itches as hardw are at the PLC end or through the output
relay contacts [voltage free ] from the PLC, The requirement for this purpose is as
follows:-
M aintained type start / stop sw itch or relay contact
Switch close = Start
Switch open = Stop
Provision exists for the following general status of the individual com pressor, to be m ade
available at the PLC through the "hard wired" connection. This option is provided as
availability of limited status as on alternate to full fledged monitoring through modbus
link.

Depending upon the operational requirements, each compressor can be selected &
operated in two modes i.e. LOCAL MODE and REMOTE MODE.
Please note that the narrated different mode selection is possible only from the
electronikon microprocessor cum display unit fascia.
Physical selection is by soft selection from the menu driven programme loaded in to these
microprocessors.
LOCAL MODE
This mode of operation shall be selected from individual Elektronikon m icroprocessor.
During this mode, the individual compressor START / STOP commands shall be executed
by the respective Electronikon microprocessor through facia MMI.
Required application / operational software with logic for start permissive / Start / Stop /
Run etc are pre loaded in the electronikon microprocessor, w hich w ill in turn control the
compressor as the case may be.
Loading & Unloading of the compressor shall be as per the operating pressure band setting
in the individual electronikon m icroprocessor.
REMOTE MODE
This mode of operation is selected, w hen individual com pressor operation is foreseen from
PLC.
Selection of this mode is through the individual Elektronikon microprocessor.
However during this mode, individual compressor START - STOP shall be executed from
the PLC H M I through sw itches of output contacts.
As same as in Local mode, Elektronikon microprocessor, with preloaded application /
operational software consists of Logic for start permissive / Start / Stop / Run etc will
control the individual com pressor.
Oil free air Compressor
During this mode also Loading & Unloading of the compressor shall be as per the
operating pressure band setting in the individual electronikon microprocessor.
P ressu re C on trol V alve: In normal course of operation this valve will remain open to
cater service air requirement. In case the pressure in the w et ai r header drops down
below 8 Kg/cm2(g) then the valve will start closing to ensure that instrument air pressure
will remain constant as instrument air requirement is of prime importance. The pressure in
the wet air header shall be sense using two pressure transm itters provided on the header
signal of this transm itters shall be fed to PLC and PLC inturn will operate PCV which is
m ounted on the com m on service air header. N ecessary logic shall be built in the PLC .

During Un-load ,
The throttle valve (103) closes . The construction of the Throttle valve assem bly
is such that certain minimum quantity of air can pass through the same even in
closed condition , to avoid deep vacuum inside the com pressor elem ents , and
this minimum quantity of air after the compression process is blown-off to the
atmosphere through the blow-off silencer (129) with out admitting any air into
the air net .

The lubricating oil from the oil tank/sump (130) [ part of the gear case ] is
sucked by the lub oil pum p (131) during the com pressor running.
Then the pressurised oil enter the oil cooler (132) and gets cooled.
Then , gets filtered in the oil filter (133) and enter LP and H P elem ents for the
lubrication of bearings and gears .
After the lubrication , the hot oil flow back in to the oil tank/sump (130).
The by-pass valve (135) allow s flow back of excess oil so that the desired oil
pressure is m aintained in the com pressor oil circuit.
The oil fum es form ed in the gear case is removed with the help of oil fume
ejector (169) and filtered . The residual oil droplets flow back to the oil
