Section 10.0 B42 for PUMP SETS
If you use the Be42 to control a PUMP SET, we recommend the use of the following settings:
Parameter
Table 10.0: Recommended settings setup
[P.15]
[oFF]
(This disables the 'alternator failure alarm')
[Inp.4]
[ 15 ]
(This selects the Mains Simulation input mode). Connect a switch (or level switch) to
terminal #29 in order to control the set by remote
[P.41]
[oFF]
(This disables the Periodic Test interval)
[P.0]
[ 0 ]
(This disables the Breaker delay time)
[P.1]
According to your needs; the engine will start after a delay
[P.2]
According to your needs; the engine will stop after a delay
Section 11.0 Engine Running Detect (Charger Alternator)
The B42 inhibits the starter motor when the engine starts running. When the engine is not running, voltage in
terminal D+/WL of the charger alternator (input #22) is 0V. As soon as the B42 starts the engine, a voltage
appears in the D+/WL terminal (0.8 to 2.5V). When the engine starts running, the voltage of the D+/WL terminal
increases by up to 3V-6V. When the engine runs, the voltage reaches 14V (28V) needed to charge the battery.
The safest point to disconnect the starter motor is between 6V to 10V. The default parameter of [P.26] is 8.0V.
This value is recommended for engines using 12V batteries. For 24V batteries, we recommend that you set the
threshold to 16V.
For safe calibration,
be sure that the green „ENGINE RUNNING‟ LED on the front panel is off during all of the
starting attempts. The Charger Alternator voltage can be displayed in the 'Engine menu' as indicated in the
section 3.0. For FlyWheel chargers, the reading is not accurate. The [P.26] setting, in this case, expresses only a
proportional factor.
The B42 also uses the output of the Generator in order to disconnect the crank motor. Parameters [P.27] and
[P.28] set the crank termination. These parameters do
not affect the status of the green „ENGINE RUNNING‟
LED. The insertion of switches or breakers in series to terminals #13 and #14 is not recommended.
NOTE: THE ‘ENGINE RUNNING’ LED MUST BE LIT WHEN THE ENGINE RUNS. USING THE ENGINE
WITHOUT THIS SIGNAL MAY BE DANGEROUS.
Normally, using a diesel engine, we recommend enabling the BELT BREAK protection. This is accomplished by
programming a voltage setting in the [P.26] sub-menu. To test the efficiency of this protection, disconnect
terminal D+ from the charger alternator and
connect to ground the #22 terminal. This protection is delayed by 15
seconds.
Section 12.0 - Calibration and Memory Reset
12.1 - Enter the calibration mode
To enter the calibration mode follow the instructions.
1) -
Make sure the Battery voltage is over 12.0Vdc and select the MAN mode. Start the engine if you need to
calibrate a parameter of the generator or,
2) -
Push and hold the
[F9→] and [ACK-F10] pushbuttons simultaneously, for about 2 seconds, until the yellow
LED [h/Prog.] starts to blink and display indicates [-CAL]; release the buttons.
3) -
If the Be42 programming is password protected, the message [42.42] will appear; follow the instructions in
table 6.11. If the Be42 is not password protected, the parameter [n1.n2] will appear on the display and you can
proceed as indicated in section 12.2.
