evoJet B90 – B130vx – B160vx – Instructions 4.0
4:AUTOSTART – General Startup Settings
CAUTION: Do not change any settings in the AUTOSTART menu unless you know
exactly what effect the respective change will have! Wrong settings can lead to serious
problems during the operation of your jet engine.
40:SPINUP/FIRE
This parameter specifies the revolution speed at which the ignition takes place during the spin-up
of the turbine.
Standard value B90: 3.100 rpm B130/160: 2.900 rpm
41:BURNER-MAX
This parameter specifies the revolution speed at which the start burner is switched off.
Standard value B90: 9.000 rpm B130/B160: 8.000 rpm
42:STARTER-MAX
This parameter specifies the maximum revolution speed for the electric starter.
Standard value B90: 32.000 rpm B130/B160: 28.000 rpm
43:ACCE-RAMP
This parameter specifies the time for the acceleration ramp.
Standard value: 16 seconds
44:HEAT-UP
This parameter specifies the time for the combustion chamber heating phase.
Standard value: 3 seconds
45:GLOWPLUG
This parameter specifies the voltage [V] for the glow plug.
Standard value : 11.0 Volt
46:BATTERY
This parameter specifies the type of supply battery (battery low detection).
Standard value: Li3s (11.1 V)
Possible are:
Ni: 10-cells(12V) - NiCd/NiMh (min. SUB-C 2400/3000 size)
Li: 3s-cells(11.1V) - LithiumMangan/LiPo min. 20C
A123: 4s-cells(13.2V) - A132 Lithium-Eisen
Only use approved turbine batteries with sufficient capacity and high-current, such as the lithium-
manganese batteries.
47:EGT/AMBIENT
Use this parameter to adapt the temperature sensor (EGT zero point) to the current ambient
temperature e.g. 21 °C (@ 70 °F)
48:BURNER-GLOW
This parameter specifies the minimum preheattime for the electrical burner.
Standard value: 14 seconds
In the cold period where battery voltage and fuel temperature are low, an increase of the minimum
burner preheattime to i.e. 22 seconds may improve the engine startup performance.
