3 Elektronikon regulator
3.1 Elektronikon control system
Main functions
In general, the Elektronikon regulator has the following functions:
• Controlling the motor speed (Variable Speed Drive), reducing the power consumption and pressure band.
• Controlling the speed of the fans of the coolers, reducing the power consumption and noise level.
• On Full-Feature compressors, controlling the speed of the compressor motor of the air dryer, reducing the
power consumption and regulating the dryer performance.
• Protecting the compressor.
• Monitoring components - service warning.
• Automatic restart after voltage failure.
Controlling the compressor speed - reducing power consumption and pressure band
VSD compressors optimise the power consumption and reduce the operating pressure band by matching the
motor speed to the air net pressure.
The regulator will continuously vary the motor speed maintaining the net pressure as close as possible to the
programmed pressure set-point. The pressure fluctuations will be very low.
