The service access is sealed with a cover during operation. After opening the
screws, two USB connections, one RJ45 Ethernet connection for service pur-
poses and one Micro SD slot are accessible.
1.3 Pump tasks and system integration
Pump tasks
The pump controller co-ordinates pump tasks, e.g. supplying machine tools
with cooling lubricant. The pump controller controls the pumps contained in the
complete installation, bearing in mind the sensors and actuators that can be
connected to the pump controller. Up to 6 pumps can be connected. The
pumps can be operated individually or together, e.g. to also achieve even bal-
anced utilisation.
The sensors, pumps and remaining actuators can be combined in up to 6 appli-
cation modules. In this context, “application modules” means basic application
functions (adjustment, control, pressure increase and rinsing applications). The
number, type and scope of the application modules depend on the complete in-
stallation’s task and equipment.
System integration
The pump controller controls the pumps contained in the complete installation
(generally via frequency converters) depending on the selected application
module and the sensor signals present (e.g. flow rate or pressure).
Information is exchanged between the complete installation (sensors and ac-
tuators) and the higher-level controller using different field bus protocols
(ethernet or modbus connection) or in the form of analog and digital signals. A
PROFINET IO field bus can be used additionally on a pump controller with the
PROFINET option.
The pump controller is delivered preconfigured for the complete installation into
which it is integrated. After assembly, you only have to set parameters for func-
tions and settings.
