The ELCOS CIM-137 is a control unit designed for irrigation motor pumps, featuring integrated pump water pressure control and a GSM telephone warning and command system. It provides comprehensive monitoring, protection, and remote control capabilities for motor pump sets.
The primary function of the CIM-137 is to operate the engine accelerator to maintain constant system pressure. It controls the flow of water in the pipe using an electronic pressure switch and features a digital pump water pressure gauge. The unit includes a clock for programming motor pump start and stop times. A key feature is its GSM telephone warning device, which notifies users via SMS messages when the motor pump is in an alarm condition. It also allows for remote control via SMS commands, enabling starting, stopping, acceleration, and deceleration in real-time. The unit can restore intervened protection devices and the general alarm remotely.
The CIM-137 protects motor pump sets by stopping them in various fault conditions, including low oil pressure, over-temperature, belt breakage, low coolant level, low or over-pressure of pump water, overspeed, and issues with available fault inputs (A1, A2). It also incorporates delayed acceleration after starting and delayed deceleration before stopping. The accelerator connects to the control unit with two wires. Additional features include CANBUS SAE J1939 connection, frost protection, and a pressure boost function.
The CIM-137's panel displays various functions, including hour-meter, oil pressure gauge, water/oil thermometer, tachometer, pump water pressure gauge, timer, fuel level gauge, battery voltmeter, pump protection exclusion status, battery and oil lights, protection intervention indicators, and emergency stop status.
Working Pressure Control: Users can set the required pressure in MANUAL mode, and after stabilization, switch to AUT mode for automatic pressure regulation. The system allows for correction of the chosen pressure value while under pressure.
Pump Protection: Protection is enabled after water pressure stabilizes. The unit stops the engine if pressure deviates by two bars from the working pressure. This two-bar threshold can be adjusted.
Failure to Fill Pipes Fault: If the working pressure is not reached within 120 seconds, the engine stops. The unit alternates acceleration with pauses to allow pipes to fill.
Abnormal Acceleration: If engine revolutions increase by 10% for more than 120 seconds due to leakage, the engine stops.
Operation Modes: The unit offers AUTOMATIC, OFF, and MANUAL operating modes, selected via a button.
Starting Procedures: The motor pump can be started in four ways: via CALL contact, TIMER, SMS command, or the START button. A buzzer activates for 8 seconds before starting. Special circuits emit pulses to facilitate startup.
Stopping Procedures: Stopping can occur due to protection device intervention, end of programmed work time, emergency button press, opening of the CALL contact, underspeed/flow switch intervention, or SMS command. The unit also features a "Stopping Failure" detection if the engine running signal is detected 60 seconds after a stop command.
Timer Function: Allows programming the motor pump to operate for a settable time (up to 96 hours), after which it stops.
Oil and Battery Warning Lights: These lights switch off when the engine is running with normal oil pressure and battery recharging.
CAN Bus Instruments and Messages: The unit displays engine parameters and anomaly messages from the engine's electronic control unit via CAN Bus (SAE J1939 protocol).
Cumulative Alarms: LEDs indicate different alarm types:
User Programming: Allows setting language, tachometer calibration, clock, timer, and programming telephone numbers for SMS warnings.
The manual outlines weekly maintenance operations:
The unit is not suitable for operation in extreme environmental temperatures, rapid pressure/temperature variations causing condensation, high pollution levels, high radiation/heat, risk of mold/small animals, fire/explosions, or strong vibrations/knocks. It functions correctly only in CE-compliant plants and meets EN61326-1 exemption requirements.
