7. The additional equipment
7.3 The container full signal
The time interval between a full container and collection by the waste contractor can sometimes be
unacceptably long, which means that waste may continue to accumulate.
This problem can be avoided to a large extent with the hydraulic/electric container full signal. There are
useful warnings of how full the container is.
There is an optional full indication when the container is 75% or 100% full.
An oil pressure switch built into the piston's forward stroke gives a signal to a relay via the turn-on delay.
Thereby the yellow or red lamp on the operating panel lights up.
The factory setting for the turn-on delay is 3
seconds.
If you, however, think that the period between
the full signal and the arrival of the transport
company is too short or too long, you can
change this time.
The relay is in the switch cabinet and is adjus-
table between 1 and 15 seconds (see point 6.3).
Thereby applies
the higher the adjusted time - the longer high
pressure remains unrecognised - and the
shorter is the time between full signal and
total full condition.
7.4 The double pump
Instead of an individual pump, the machine
may also be equipped with a double pump.
By means of that, the compaction cycle is
reduced from approx. 70 seconds to 41 seconds.
