Running times
Instruction manual EBF / EBF ECO page 12 of 19

The feed times etc are adjusted in the control unit box using three
potentiometers according to the conditions of the local pond area.
Before the control unit box is opened, the supply cable is disconnected
from the power socket!
On the Smartpond® circuit board, there are three potentiometers with the
following designations:
Functioning of the control unit
Start of the cleaning
cycle
B1 (float gauge)
When the fault gauge sensor B1 is pressed, the cleaning cycle begins. The
spraying pump is triggered for this purpose (Output A2 = power socket for
spraying pump).
After a fixed delay time of 1 sec, the time P1 begins (delay of the pump)
which can be adjusted between from 0.1 to 10 sec.
Default setting ex factory: 0.1 Sec. = minimum; left-hand limit stop
After this time lapses, the conveyor belt starts moving (Lead L2)
Running time of the
conveyor belt
P3
The conveyor belt runs for a specific running time (P3) which can be varied
between 2 and 20 sec.
Default setting ex factory: ca. 11 sec. = Mean (ca. 12:00)
End of the cleaning
cycle
After the P3 time period lapses, the conveyor belt stops to move. But the
spraying pump operates for a fixed programmed time of 1 sec longer so
that no dirt remains on the belt or reaches the clean bio-chamber.
Waiting time till the
next cycle possible
P2
After the spray nozzle stops, the delay time P2 (waiting time) begins, which
can be varied between 5 and 30 sec.
Default setting ex factory: 30 sec. =max; right-hand limit stop
After the waiting period has passed, a new cleaning cycle can begin (if the
float gauge sensor is activated).
