    Lab6 Compressor HMI

    The document describes a control system for a reciprocating air compressor. The system uses sensors to monitor air pressure and temperature, and controls the compressor to maintain safe pressure levels. It turns the compressor on when pressure is low and off when pressure reaches the high limit. The compressor will also shut off if the temperature or oil pressure sensors detect a problem. Indicators on the HMI display the operating status and any error conditions. The system ensures the compressor only operates when necessary to keep the air pressure within the normal operating zone.

    Air compressor control + HMI

    Zone 1 OFF OFF
    Zone 2 ON OFF
    Zone 3 ON ON
    ERROR OFF ON

    Background
    Air compressors are used in construction, manufacturing, agriculture, energy sector, heating,
    ventilation, HVAC and …
    Although there are several types of air compressors available, but the three basic types of air
    compressors are:
     Reciprocating
     Rotary screw
     Rotary centrifugal

    The compressor is driven by an electric motor to increase the air pressure in the air receiver. The
    compressor is lubricated by an oil pump that is attached to the same driven shaft as the
    compressor and the electric motor. Lubrication is necessary to reduce the wearing of the
    compressor surfaces. High temperature is one the best indication of some malfunctioning in
    different equipment included compressor.

    Tasks
    A control and interlock system is required for a reciprocating compressor. The control is initiated
    by a hand switch (HS_320, HMI-based) in RUN position. The HS_320 can be OFF or RUN. The
    compressor is driven by an electric motor and there is a built in oil pump for the compressor
    lubrication. Compressor will turns ON and OFF periodically. The goal is to maintain safely the air
    receiver pressure in zone 2. The compressor can be ON if the pressure in the air receiver tank is
    lower than PSL_330, then the compressor must be OFF if the pressure in the receiver is greater
    than PSH_331 as describe below.

    Normal Operation

    1. With the switch is in the RUN position, the compressor is ready to operate.
    2. The compressor will be ON operate (%Qx0.0 but monitored and animated in HMI)
    whenever the receiver pressure is low, zone 3 exclusively. (PSL_330, HMI-based, no air
     Closed).
    3. The compressor will continue to operate until the receiver pressure reaches the high limit
    (PSH_331, HMI-based, no air  closed)
    4. The hand switch, HS_320, will place the compressor in OFF position immediately.
    5. When the HS_320 switch changes to RUN position the compressor can be ON only if the
    pressure is in zone 3 exclusively.
    6. The low pressure sensor, PSL_330 and the receiver pressure high, PSH_331, can not be
    triggered simultaneously, this combination is wrong and makes a trip. ( ERROR case in the
    table)
    7. The main goal is to keep the pressure in zone 2.

    Compressor Trips

    The compressor must be OFF and stays OFF till it is acknowledged by the HS_320 if any of the
    following trips occurs

    1. Compressor temperature high (TSH_321, HMI-based) at any time for 2 sec. The 2 sec is the
    default PT, preset time, but operators must be ale to set this PT through HMI. The ET, elapsed
    time, must be monitored in HMI
    2. Compressor oil pressure low (PSL_322, %Ix0.4). Six seconds, 6 sec, are required for the oil
    pressure to be built when the compressor becomes ON. The 6 sec is the default PT, preset
    time, but operators must be ale to set this PT through HMI. The ET, elapsed time, must be
    monitored in HMI. Attention, this is different than the PSL_322 is OFF for 6 sec.
    Keep in mind that the compressor is periodically ON/OFF.
    3. Add three indicators in HMI to demonstrate the three trip,
    • Wrong switch combinations
    • The temperature high
    • The oil pressure low
    If either of the interlocks trips the compressor the compressor must shut down, the associated
    indicator must be ON and stays ON till it is reset or being acknowledged, they must be reset or
    acknowledged by switching the compressor from RUN 
    OFF  RUN in HMI. After system resetting the compressor stays OFF till:
    • The receiver pressure low (PSL_330) is open
    • The pressure switch high, PSH_331, is closed
    • The temperature is normal.
