1 –Pump 9-Station Controller Chapter 1: Safety viii

1-3 Responsibility

These machines are constructed for maximum operator safety when used under standard operating conditions and when recommended instructions are followed in the maintenance and operation of the machine.

All personnel engaged in the use of the machine should become familiar with its operation as described in this manual.

Proper operation of the machine promotes safety for the operator and all workers in its vicinity.

Each individual must take responsibility for observing the prescribed safety rules as outlined.

All warning and danger signs must be observed and obeyed. All actual or potential danger areas must be reported to your immediate supervisor.

General Responsibility

No mater who you are, safety is important. Owners, operators and maintenance personnel must realize that every day, safety is a vital part of their jobs.

If your main concern is loss of productivity, remember that production is always affected in a negative way following an accident. The following are some of the ways that accidents can affect your production:

• Loss of a skilled operator (temporarily or permanently)

• Breakdown of shop morale

• Costly damage to equipment

• Downtime

An effective safety program is responsible and economically sound.

Organize a safety committee or group, and hold regular meetings. Promote this group from the management level. Through this group, the safety program can be continually reviewed, maintained, and improved. Keep minutes or a record of the meetings.

Hold daily equipment inspections in addition to regular maintenance checks. You will keep your equipment safe for production and exhibit your commitment to safety.

Please read and use this manual as a guide to equipment safety. This manual contains safety warnings throughout, specific to each function and point of operation.

1 –Pump 9-Station Controller Chapter 1: Safety ix

Operator Responsibility

The operator’s responsibility does not end with efficient production. The operator usually has the most daily contact with the equipment and intimately knows its capabilities and limitations.

Plant and personnel safety is sometimes forgotten in the desire to meet incentive rates, or through a casual attitude toward machinery formed over a period of months or years. Your employer probably has established a set of safety rules in your workplace. Those rules, this manual, or any other safety information will not keep you from being injured while operating your equipment.

Learn and always use safe operation. Cooperate with co-workers to promote safe practices.

Immediately report any potentially dangerous situation to your supervisor or appropriate person.

Maintenance Responsibility

Proper maintenance is essential to safety. If you are a maintenance worker, you must make safety a priority to effectively repair and maintain equipment.

Before removing, adjusting, or replacing parts on a machine, remember to turn off all electric supplies and all accessory equipment at the machine, and disconnect and lockout electrical power. Attach warning tags to the disconnect switch.

Be sure that all non-current carrying parts are correctly connected to earth ground with an electrical conductor that complies with current codes. Install in accordance with national and local codes.

When you have completed the repair or maintenance procedure, check your work and remove your tools, rigging, and handling equipment.

Reporting a Safety Defect

If you believe that your equipment has a defect that could cause injury, you should immediately discontinue its use and inform the manufacturer.

The principle factors that can result in injury are failure to follow proper operating procedures

(i.e. lockout/tagout), or failure to maintain a clean and safe working environment.

Chapter 2: Functional Description

2-1 Models Covered in This Manual

This manual provides operation, installation, and maintenance instructions for 1-Pump, 9-

Station Conveying Controllers. Model numbers are listed on the serial tag. Make sure you know the model and serial number of your equipment before contacting the manufacturer for parts or service.

The 1-Pump, 9-Station Conveying Controller is a programmable logic controller, with 24

VDC control circuit, easy-to-use operator interface terminal and optional audible/visual alarm.

Our material conveying systems create vacuum for the automatic conveying of most freeflowing, dry, pelletized, or granular materials. Material characteristics determine the type of equipment needed to convey the material.

A typical use for our equipment is an in-plant distribution system for plastic processing plants.

Our central vacuum systems are as varied as the applications they service. The tubing and equipment furnished in our system is designed to convey the material(s) specified at the time of purchase at specific rates and distances.

We can advise you on your system capabilities based on system makeup, distance, material, and conveying rates you want.

System capacity is directly affected by the pressure drop in the overall system, such as number of material line bends, pipe length, Y-tubes, T-tubes, etc.

Use the minimum effective amount of vinyl flex hose to maximize material line efficiency.

Keep material lines as straight as possible. Refer to Vacuum Pump Product manual (Part No.

A0571050) for installation recommendations.

1 –Pump 9-Station Controller Chapter 2: Functional Description 11 of 38

2-3 Standard Features

Mechanical Features

Time-fill Capability. A station’s vacuum valve remains open for a specific period of time to allow material to be drawn in.

Volume-fill Capability. The vacuum valve will close when material covers the station’s volume-fill proximity sensor or a specific period of time elapses, whichever comes first.

Vent Valve. The vent valve extends vacuum pump life by allowing the pump to run unloaded (not drawing a vacuum on a station) for a specified period of time before it shuts off. The alternative, without the vent valve would be to constantly turn the pump on and off whenever a convey cycle is initiated.

Closed-Loop Conveying (Dry or Ambient Air). This feature allows material to be conveyed and processed without being contaminated by outside influences (such as moisture, other materials, etc.).

Common Purge Valve Output Control for Each Pump. This feature allows any remaining material to be cleaned out of the material lines.

Blowback Filter Cleaning. When this feature is enabled, the controller periodically sends compressed air backward through the pump’s air filter to dislodge accumulated dust and debris.

Electrical Features

• 115/1/60 supply voltage

• 24 VDC control voltage

• Single-point power and ground connection

• Non-fused disconnect switch, lockable

• Branch circuit fusing

Controller Features

• Mitsubishi programmable control with LED display and keypad interface

• Monitors Station status and Pump status

1 –Pump 9-Station Controller Chapter 2: Functional Description 12 of 38

Options marked with “*” indicate options that can be factory installed or retrofitted in the field.

CE Package for 220/1/50 Operation. Required in Europe and other areas that need

220/1/50 supply voltage.

*Remote audible/visual alarm. Alarm light and horn assembly that can be remote mounted and wired into the controller to indicate an alarm condition.

This section includes information on safety devices and procedures that are inherent to the

Controller. This manual is not intended to supersede or alter safety standards established by the user of this equipment. Instead, the material contained in this section is recommended to supplement these procedures in order to provide a safer working environment.

At the completion of this section, the operator and maintenance personnel will be able to do the following:

• Identify and locate specific safety devices.

• Understand the proper use of the safety devices provided.

• Describe the function of the safety device.

Safety Circuit Standards

Safety circuits used in industrial systems protect the operator and maintenance personnel from dangerous energy. They also provide a means of locking out or isolating the energy for servicing equipment.

Various agencies have contributed to the establishment of safety standards that apply to the design and manufacture of automated equipment. The Occupational Safety and Health

Administration (OSHA) and the Joint Industrial council (JIC) are just a few of the organizations that have joined with the plastics industry to develop safety standards.

Every effort has been made to incorporate these standards into the design of the conveying system; however, it is the responsibility of the personnel operating and maintaining the equipment to familiarize themselves with the safety procedures and the proper use of any safety devices.

Fail Safe Operation

If a safety device or circuit should fail, the design must be such that the failure causes a

“Safe” condition. As an example, a safety switch must be a normally open switch. The switch must be held closed with the device it is to protect. If the switch fails, it will go to the open condition, tripping out the safety circuit.

At no time should the safety device fail and allow the operation to continue. For example, if a safety switch is guarding a motor, and the safety switch fails, the motor should not be able to run.

1 –Pump 9-Station Controller Chapter 2: Functional Description 13 of 38

WARNING! Always disconnect and lockout all electrical power and pneumatic (i.e. compressed air) sources prior to servicing the 1-Pump, 9-Station Controller. Failure to do so may result in serious injury. No one but the person who installed the lockout may remove it.

Safety Device Lock-Outs

Some safety devices disconnect electrical energy from a circuit. The safety devices that are used in this Controller are primarily concerned with electrical power disconnection.

Chapter 4: Operation

4-1 Overview

Your 1-pump, 9-station controller electrically controls valves and solenoids to convey material from a central location to individual stations as needed. The controller senses demands for material at the stations and responds to the demands in a timely fashion.

This section provides the procedures necessary for using your controller.

Note: Before you carry out any of the procedures in this chapter, the system must be set up as described in Chapter 3.

4-2 Starting and Stopping the System

1. Press F1 to start the conveying system. The controller will display “F1 SYS ON” in the upper left corner of the Main Menu screen.

Note: The conveying system can also be activated by pressing the F1 key when in the

Status screen. The controller will display “F1 SYS ON”in the middle of the bottom of the screen.

Once the system has been started, each active station is polled in sequence for a demand signal. The convey sequence upon initiation, will continue until the set convey time has elapsed or the demand signal stops, whichever happens first. If the

Special Timed Convey feature is enabled, conveying will continue until the convey time has elapsed. (Once station dump delay has been initiated during the convey sequence, a new demand signal will be ignored.) If the blowback sequence begins immediately following the convey sequence, the sequence valve will remain open throughout the blowback sequence.

2. To stop conveying, press F1 again when in the Main Menu or Status screen. The controller will display “F1 SYS OFF.”

4-3 Alarms

No Convey

If no convey is enabled and the station conveys the specified number of times unsuccessfully, the alarm horn/light will activate. The status for that station will display “NO CNVY.” If the station is currently in convey or unload, the status will alternate between “NO CNVY” and

“CONVEY” or “UNLOAD.” Pressing F2 while the status screen is displayed will silence the alarm. The status screen will continue to show “NO CNVY” until a successful convey occurs.

High Vacuum

If a high vacuum condition is detected during the convey sequence, the alarm horn/light will activate. The status for the affected station will display “HI VAC.” If the station is currently in convey or unload, the status will alternate between “HI VAC” and “CONVEY” or

“UNLOAD.” Pressing F2 while the status screen is displayed will silence the alarm. The status screen will continue to show “HI VAC” until a convey occurs where no high vacuum condition is sensed.

1 –Pump 9-Station Controller Chapter 4: Operation 28 of 38

Pump Fault

If the pump verify signal is not present after the pump is started, the alarm horn/light will activate. The pump will be stopped and set to an offline condition. The Status screen will display “PMP FLT.” Pressing F2 while the status screen is displayed will silence the alarm.

Filter Can

If the filter can limit switch signal is not present after the pump is started, the alarm horn/light will activate. The Status screen will display “FLTR CAN”. Pressing F2 while the status screen is displayed will silence the alarm.

General Fault

If the general fault signal is present after the pump is started, the alarm horn/light will activate. The pump will be stopped and set to an offline condition. The Status screen will display “GEN FLT.” Pressing F2 while the status screen is displayed will silence the alarm.

All Faults

If after silencing an alarm, the condition remains beyond the time specified for ALARM

SILENCE DURATION, the alarm horn/light will reactivate. Pressing F2 from the status screen will silence the alarm.

Chapter 5: Maintenance

No Periodic maintenance is required on this unit.

Chapter 6: Configurable Settings

This section describes the proper setup of the 1-pump, 9-station control system parameters.

These parameters are operator changeable; however, these items should require setup only during the initial installation. Only authorized personnel should change them.

Many of the variables and setup parameters have been preset at the factory and do not need to be changed. However, this section of the manual will address all of the setup parameters that were available at the time of printing. The purpose of this is to familiarize the reader with all the setup parameters and their usage.

Name Description

Conveying Components

Convey time Length of time the station’s vacuum valve remains open to allow material to be drawn in. (For a volume-fill station, the valve closes when material covers the station’s volume-fill proximity sensor or this time elapses, whichever comes first.)

Unload Time

No conveys

Adjust this value to match the actual time needed to fill the station. To disable a station, set the convey time to Ø

(zero).

Length of time allowed for material to drain from the station into the receiver. The controller will not attempt to deliver more material to the station until this time has elapsed.

Adjust this value to match the actual time needed to drain the station. If it is set too short, the controller may attempt to refill the station before it is empty, causing material to back up and/or underusing the station’s capacity. If it is set too long, the system may be unable to keep up with your equipment’s demand for material. DO NOT SET TO “Ø”.

The controller issues a “no convey” alarm if it has repeatedly attempted to convey material to the station but the flapper never opened during the dump delay. (The number of attempts is controlled by this setting.)

The setting for this option depends on (a) how much material your injection mold uses to make each part compared with the capacity of the receiver and (b) how important it is to keep your injection mold from running out of material and shutting down.

A higher setting will give you fewer alarms, at the risk of emptying the receiver without warning. A lower setting will give more frequent alarms, at the risk of disrupting operations unnecessarily. DO NOT SET TO “Ø”.

6-2 Options for Pump Setup

The ramp time represents the amount of time it takes for the vacuum blower to come up to full speed once it has been turned on. The ramp down time represents the amount of time it takes the blower to stop once it has been turned off.

The ramp up time lets the blower reach full speed unloaded. When the ramp up time is reached, the vent valve will open and allow the pump to draw a vacuum on the main vacuum line. This in turn will open the receiver sequence valve connected to the main vacuum line and allow material to be drawn into the vacuum receiver.

The ramp down time allows the vacuum blower to come to a full stop before it can be started again. This prevents the blower motor from becoming a generator and blowing fuses.

Name Description

Pump Settings

Idle Time

Ramp Up Time

Length of time the pump continues to run unloaded without demand from any station. After this time has elapsed, the pump shuts down to save power and to prevent wear on the pump.

Adjust this setting to fit the needs of your facility in trading off the savings against the costs associated with waiting for a pump to start up when there is a demand for material.

This feature specifies the time (in seconds) allowed for the pump motor to reach operating speed.

Ramp Down Time

Cnvys/Clean

On Pulse

Off Pulse

This feature specifies the time (in seconds) allowed for the pump motor to come to a complete stop.

When this option is enabled, the controller periodically sends compressed air backward through the pump’s air filter to dislodge accumulated dust and debris.

Enable this option if and only if the pump has the equipment for compressed-air filter cleaning. Set to Ø to Disable Blowback.

Number of conveying cycles to stations between filter cleanings.

Adjust this setting based on experience. The more dust and debris in your material line, the smaller this number needs to be.

Tenths of seconds that the air pulse remains on for each cleaning pulse during filter cleaning.

If blow-back is not working as desired, the service department may ask you to change this setting.

Tenths of seconds between air pulses during filter cleaning.

If blow-back is not working as desired, the service department may ask you to change this setting.

Numbler of cleaning pulses (No. Pulses)

Clean Pulses

FC Type

Number of pulses of compressed air sent through the pump’s filter during cleaning.
