3 Elektronikon Graphic Controller
3.1 Elektronikon Graphic Controller
General description
The Elektronikon regulator automatically controls and protects the dryer, i.e.:
• keeping the pressure dew-point stable
• monitoring pressures, temperatures and digital switches to ensure safe operation, and
stopping the dryer whenever necessary
• restarting the dryer when required
In order to control the dryer and to read and modify programmable parameters, the
regulator has a control panel provided with:
• LEDs indicating the status of the dryer
• a display indicating the operating conditions or a fault
• keys to control the dryer and to access the data collected by the regulator
• buttons to manually start and stop the dryer
Automatic restart after voltage failure
The regulator has a built-in function to automatically restart the dryer if the voltage is restored
after voltage failure. For dryers leaving the factory, this function is not activated. If desired, the
function can be activated. Consult Atlas Copco
If activated and provided the regulator was in the automatic operation mode, the
dryer will automatically restart if the supply voltage to the module is restored
within a programmed time period.
The power recovery time (the period within which the voltage must be restored
to have an automatic restart) can be set between 15 and 3600 seconds or to
'Infinite'. If the power recovery time is set to 'Infinite', the dryer will always restart
after a voltage failure, no matter how long it takes to restore the voltage. A
restart delay can also be programmed, allowing for example the dryer and the
compressors to be restarted one after the other.
