Compressors
in sequence
The mc2 control unit includes all the control functions of the compressor on which it is directly installed.
For compressor rooms in which several machines equipped with this control unit are installed (up to a maximum
of four units), a communication network can be set up between these for automatic, coordinated management
of the compressors.
Communication between the compressors provides the following advantages:
constant pressure of the air supplied to pneumatic service points
energy saving:
only the compressors necessary to supply the air required are activated
equal distribution of work load on the compressors available with consequent synchronization
of scheduled maintenance operations
management of alarms and machine stoppages so as to prevent any interruption in the supply
of compressed air
management of the network of compressors according to a program set by the user on a
daily or weekly basis
To establish communication between the control units, a communication module is required for each machine
to be connected and the related connection cables.
Therefore, contact your area dealer to purchase these.
The instructions for installation, programming and operation of the network of compressors are provided in
the booklet furnished with the communication module.
