6.3.3 Monitoring functions
The following functions are available for moni-
toring the lubrication system:
Fill level monitoring
Monitoring the lubrication cycle via
piston detector
Monitoring signal cables for cable
breakage and monitoring valves and
piston detectors
Monitoring switch outputs for short circuit
Monitoring power consumption of the
pump motor
Monitoring the temperature in the
pump unit
Diagnostics memory (real-time)
6.3.3.1 System monitoring
This function includes the following monitoring
functions:
• Fill level monitoring
• Monitoring the lubrication cycle
via piston detector
System monitoring can be activated and
deactivated. The monitoring functions men-
tioned above are deactivated when system
monitoring is deactivated. This means that no
level in the lubricant reservoir falls below the
"min" mark.
It only makes sense to deactivate system
monitoring if the functions mentioned above
cannot be used because the required sensors
are not connected.
6.3.3.2 Fill level monitoring
Depending on the lubricant, either mechanical
or capacitive sensors are used to monitor the
-
dard design, a mechanical sensor (W1 or W1G)
monitors whether the lubricant falls below the
"min." mark. This is preferred for use with
greases of NLGI Grade 2.
-
sor (W2) is provided which is integrated into
the reservoir cover. The sensor sends a signal
to the control unit if the lubricant level reaches
the "min" mark. The control unit then gener-
monitoring is active.
