57.6 OIL FLOAT/PRESSURE SWITCH ALARM
OPC1…OPC16 (compressor n°1…16 oil pressure switch alarm)
The alarm is not signalled: on compressor switch-on for the time AL12. After
time AL12 it is not signalled with unit in normal working conditions for time
AL13
Automatic – it becomes manual after AL14 interventions/hour (reset procedure
in functions menu)
If AL15 = 0 the alarm is not detected with the compressor off

OIL ALARM WORKING DUE TO PRESSURE SWITCH OR FLOAT (SCREW)
It is possible that both safety systems can exist together in certain applications. The delay, the active input
duration and the number of interventions per hour are used to correctly manage the two safety devices.
Par. AL12
Oil alarm delay due to compressor activation
Allows to set a delay in recognising the alarm of the pressure switch and the float from compressor start-up.
Par. AL13
Float pressure switch input active duration in normal working conditions
Allows to set a time during which the oil alarm must remain active in normal working conditions. The alarm is
signalled after this time. The count starts after the AL13 time. It allows to filter any pressure or oil level drops
that may occur for brief moments, e.g. with the activation of a compressor partialisation step.
Par. AL14
Maximum number of oil alarm interventions per hour
It determines a maximum number of oil alarm interventions per hour. When these are exceeded the alarm
passes from automatic to manual reset.
Par. AL15
Oil float/pressure switch alarm with compressor in OFF if a differential oil pressure switch is used
0 = alarm detection not enabled
1= alarm detection enabled
