25-51 Alternation Event
Option: Function:
This parameter is only active if the options
At Command
[2] or
At Staging or Command
[3] have
been selected in par.25-50
Lead Pump Alternation
. If an alternation event is selected, the alternation
of lead pump takes place every time the event occurs.
[0] * External Alternation takes place when a signal is applied to one of the digital inputs on the terminal strip and
this input has been assigned to
Lead Pump Alternation
[121] in
par. 5-1*, Digital Inputs
.
[1] Alternation Time Interval Alternation takes place every time par.25-52
Alternation Time Interval
expires.
[2] Sleep Mode Alternation takes place each time the lead pump goes into sleep mode. par.20-23
Setpoint 3
must
be set to
Sleep Mode
[1] or an external signal applied for this function.
[3] Predefined Time Alternation takes place at a defined time of the day. If par.25-54
Alternation Predefined Time
is set,
the alternation is carried out every day at the specified time. Default time is midnight (00:00 or
12:00 AM depending on the time format).
25-52 Alternation Time Interval
Range: Function:
24 h* [1 - 999 h] If
Alternation Time Interval
[1] option in par.25-51
Alternation Event
is selected, the alternation of
the variable speed pump takes place every time the Alternation Time Interval expires (can be
checked out in par.25-53
Alternation Timer Value
).
25-53 Alternation Timer Value
Range: Function:
0 N/A* [0 - 0 N/A] Readout parameter for the Alternation Time Interval value set in par.25-52
Alternation Time Inter-
val
.
25-54 Alternation Predefined Time
Range: Function:
0 N/A* [0 - 0 N/A] If option
Predefined Time
[3] in par.25-51
Alternation Event
is selected, the variable speed pump
alternation is carried out every day at the specified time set in Alternation Predefined Time. Default
time is midnight (00:00 or 12:00 AM depending on the time format).
25-55 Alternate if Load < 50%
Option: Function:
If Alternation If Capacity <50% is enabled, the pump alternation can only occurs if the capacity is
equal to or below 50%. The capacity calculation is the ratio of running pumps (including the variable
speed pump) to the total number of available pumps (including variable speed pump, but not those
interlocked).
Capacity
=
N
RUNNING
N
TOTAL
× 100%
For the basic cascade controller, all pumps are equal size.
[0] Disabled The lead pump alternation will take place at any pump capacity.
[1] * Enabled The lead pump function will be alternated only if the numbers of pumps running are providing less
than 50% of total pump capacity.
