8.13 EXAMPLES OF AUTOCHANGE AND INTERLOCK SELECTION
8.13.1 PUMP AND FAN AUTOMATICS WITH INTERLOCKS AND NO AUTOCHANGE
Situation:
One controlled drive and three auxiliary drives.
Parameter settings: 2.9.1=3, 2.9.25=0
Interlock feedback signals used, autochange not used.
Parameter settings: 2.9.23=1, 2.9.24=0
The interlock feedback signals come from the digital inputs selected with parameters
2.2.6.18 to 2.2.6.21.
The Auxiliary drive 1 control (P2.3.1.27) is enabled through Interlock 1 (P2.2.6.18), the
Auxiliary drive 2 control (P2.3.1.28) through Interlock 2 (P2.2.6.19) etc.
Phases:
1.
The system and the motor controlled by the AC drive are started.
2.
The Auxiliary drive 1 starts when the main drive reaches the starting frequency set
(P2.9.2).
3.
The main drive decreases speed down to Auxiliary drive 1 Stop frequency (P2.9.3) and
starts to rise toward the Start frequency of Auxiliary drive 2, if needed.
4.
The Auxiliary drive 2 starts when the main drive has reached the starting frequency set
(P2.9.4).
5.
The Interlock feedback is removed from Aux. drive 2. Because the Aux. drive 3 is unused,
it will be started to replace the removed Aux. drive 2.
6.
The main drive increases speed to maximum because no more auxiliary drives are
available.
7.
The removed Aux.drive 2 is reconnected and placed last in the auxiliary drive start order
which now is 1-3-2. The main drive decreases speed to the set Stop frequency. The
auxiliary drive start order will be updated either immediately or in the next Stop
(autochange, sleep, stop, etc.) according to P2.9.23.
8.
If still more power is needed, the main drive speed rises up to the maximum frequency
placing 100% of the output power in the system's disposal.
When the need of power decreases, the auxiliary drives turn off in the opposite order (2-3-1;
after the update 3-2-1).
8.13.2 PUMP AND FAN AUTOMATICS WITH INTERLOCKS AND AUTOCHANGE
The above is also applicable if the autochange function is used. In addition to the changed
and updated start order, also the change order of main drives depends on parameter 2.9.23.
