Do you have a question about the ELCOS CIM-137/4G and is the answer not in the manual?

The ELCOS CIM-137/4G and CIM-137/4GW are control units designed for irrigation motor pumps, managing pump functions and providing protection for the motor and pump. These units are suitable for both European Network Coverage (CIM-137/4G) and Worldwide Network Coverage (CIM-137/4GW).

Function Description

The control unit operates by managing the starting, acceleration, deceleration, and stopping of the motor pump. It features a display and push-buttons for user interaction. The device can be controlled locally or remotely via SMS commands.

Key functions include:

Automatic Pump Priming: The unit manages the priming process, ensuring the pump is filled with water before starting. This is crucial for preventing dry running and potential damage.
Motor Pump Protection: It monitors various parameters to protect the motor and pump from damage. These include:
- Low oil pressure
- Over-temperature
- Belt breakage
- Low coolant level
- Low pump water pressure
- Pump water overpressure
- Overspeed
- Insufficient pump water pressure
- Abnormal acceleration
- Battery undervoltage/overvoltage
- Alternator failure
- Starting failure
- Engine cooling
GSM Telephone Warning Device and Command System: The unit integrates a modem for remote communication. It can notify users via SMS messages when the motor pump is in an alarm condition, display the status of the motor pump, switch off pump protection, set minutes of work, and start or stop the pump.
User Programming: Allows users to configure various parameters such as language, clock settings, telephone numbers for SMS communication, and tachometer adjustments.
Display and Indicators: The unit features a display that shows real-time data such as hour-meter, oil pressure, water or oil thermometer, tachometer, pump water pressure, fuel level, battery voltmeter, and pump protection exclusion status. LEDs indicate various operational states and alarms.

Usage Features

User Interface: The device features a 2.8-inch display and push-buttons for intuitive operation. The display shows various parameters and alarm conditions.
Remote Control via SMS: Users can remotely start/stop the pump, check its status, and receive alarm notifications via SMS. This feature enhances convenience and allows for monitoring from a distance.
Programming: The unit allows for extensive user programming, including setting the clock, language, and telephone numbers for SMS alerts.
Automatic Operation: The control unit can be configured for automatic operation, managing the pump's start-up, priming, and shutdown sequences.
Manual Operation: A manual mode is available for direct control of the pump, bypassing automatic sequences.
Alarm Management: The system provides detailed alarm messages on the display and can send SMS notifications to programmed numbers, indicating the type of fault and the intervention required.
Preheating Function: The duration of the preheating action can be set, ensuring optimal engine starting, especially in colder conditions.
SMS Commands: Specific SMS commands allow for starting, stopping, checking water pressure, and monitoring hours of operation.

Maintenance Features

Self-Diagnostics: The control unit continuously monitors various engine and pump parameters, providing immediate feedback on potential issues.
Alarm History: The system logs alarm conditions, which can be reviewed to diagnose intermittent problems or track the history of faults.
Preventive Maintenance: The manual outlines recommended maintenance operations, including checking indicators, batteries, and conductors, to ensure the longevity and reliable operation of the unit.
Troubleshooting: The manual provides detailed troubleshooting guides for common issues, such as failure to fill pipes, insufficient pump water pressure, and abnormal acceleration.
Component Accessibility: The design allows for relatively easy access to components for inspection and replacement, such as the SIM card for the GSM module.
Firmware Updates: While not explicitly detailed, such units typically allow for firmware updates to improve functionality or address bugs.
Electrical Connections: The wiring diagram is provided to assist with installation and troubleshooting of electrical connections.
Environmental Considerations: The control unit is designed for external use with an IP54/IP23/IP20 rating, indicating protection against dust and water splashes, suitable for outdoor installations.
