6. SYSTEM OF EACH COMPONENT [Capacity Control System]
6.2.2
I
-Type Capacity Control
(Standard setting for S-type at delivery
from the factory)
This controls the capacity as a flow chart in the
right figure.
(1) When
“pressure fluctuation cycle: t”
is less
than 28 seconds, U-type (suction unload type)
control is adopted.
(2) When
“pressure fluctuation cycle: t”
is
longer than 28 seconds, I-type (integral un-
load type) control is adopted.
6.2.3 P-Type Capacity Control
(Standard setting for M-type at delivery
from the factory)
This controls the capacity as a flow chart in the
right figure.
(1) If
“pressure fluctuation cycle: t”
is less than
28 seconds, U-Type control (Suction Unload
Type) is adopted.
(2) If
“pressure fluctuation cycle: t”
is over 28
seconds and the air consumption is larger
than 30% of its rated capacity, I-Type control
(Integral Unload Type) is adopted.
(3) If
“pressure fluctuation cycle: t”
is over 28
seconds and the air consumption is less than
30% of its rated capacity, P-Type control (Mo-
tor ON-OFF Control Type) is adopted.
However, the number of stops the motor makes
is limited to 3 times during 30 minutes.
(4) When the I-type unloading operation contin-
ues for 3 minutes, the P-type capacity control
is activated.
In case of P-Type (Motor ON-OFF Control Type),
(1) The Motor will not start again for 45 seconds when
it stops.
(2) Install an external air receiver tank. If you fail to ob-
serve this instruction, the plant airline pressure may
critically drop within 45 seconds (or before the mo-
tor can restart). When you want to use the
ECOMODE function, select a larger air receiver
tank. For appropriate air receiver tank capacity, see
page 36.
