 Attention:
Risk of electric shock from charged capacitors!
Always disconnect the system from the power supply
and then wait a further 10 minutes before touching
electrical components. The power capacitors take this
time to discharge.
Check the DC bus voltage at the system terminal strip
of the frequency converter by measuring this between
the +DC and -DC terminals (the exact position can
be found in the supplied operating manual of the
frequency converter), between the +DC terminal and
the chassis as well as between the -DC terminal and
the chassis. The voltage must read zero in the case
of all three measurements.

You can now correct (increase or decrease) this value

using !
# or !
$ . Then confirm the value set by pressing
the key.
2.2 Setting line pressure
Speed is controlled with the aid of a PI controller
implemented in the software and is matched to the
demand for compressed air. In the [ CONTROL MENU ]
menu you have to set the maximum line pressure
switching point (CUT-OUT POINT) and the TARGET
PRESSURE.
CUT-OUT POINT
TARGET PRESSURE
When the maximum line pressure switching point is
reached, the machine switches to off-load.

In the range between TARGET PRESSURE and CUT-

OUT POINT the speed of the machine is regulated
according to the compressed air requirement.

Example:

CUT-OUT POINT 10.0bar

ON-LOAD
TARGET PRESSURE 9.5bar

The speed of the machine is regulated according to the

need for compressed air so that the set pressure of

9.5 bar is maintained.

When the line pressure reaches 10.0 bar, the machine

switches to off-load.
