Elektronikon I regulator
Control panel
Introduction
In general, the Elektronikon regulator has following functions:
• Controlling the compressor
• Protecting the compressor
• Monitoring components subject to service
• Automatic restart after voltage failure (made inactive)
Automatic control of the compressor
The regulator maintains the net pressure between programmable limits by automatically loading
and unloading the compressor. A number of programmable settings, e.g. the unloading and
loading pressures, the minimum stop time and the maximum number of motor starts are taken
into account.
The regulator stops the compressor whenever possible to reduce the power consumption and
restarts it automatically when the net pressure decreases.
Protecting the compressor
Shut-down
If the compressor element outlet temperature exceeds the programmed shut-down level, the
compressor will be stopped. This will be indicated on display (1). The compressor will also be
stopped in case of overload of the drive motor.
Air-cooled compressors will also be stopped in the event of overload of the fan motor.
Before remedying, consult the
Shut-down warning
A shut-down warning level is a programmable level below the shut-down level.
