INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR DAAB EP104 CONTROL BOARD
• Load guard
The load guard can be used in two different ways.
• With certified personal protection – fixed upper and lower limits and adjustable normal power
• Without certified personal protection – adjustable upper and lower limits only
The automatic control unit is initially configured for certified personal protection. If the application requires certified personal
protection with a load guard, you will need to check the normal power of the electric motor and enter it in the system.
If the application does not require certified personal protection with a load guard, you can disable the function by setting the
normal power to 0. In this case, the load guard is not certified for personal protection.
In this mode, you can set your own upper limits for the load guard. There is an upper limit for the closing movement and an
upper limit for the opening movement.
The load guard will only work properly if the door and all moving parts are free to move easily.
!
Note that the load guard never replaces other safety circuits such as a safety edge for example.
With certified personal protection – setting the normal power in the load guard
The load guard is configured separately for each motor by reading the motor power during operation.
Read the normal power in C231 for motor 1 and C241 for motor 2. Change the normal power setting (initial value 0.20
kW) to the power used on average by the motor, in C230 and C240 respectively. The permitted range is 0.12-0.35kW. The
load guard will be activated when the load is 0.25kW above the setting. Example: C230=0.20 kW means an upper load
limit of 0.45 kW. There is also a lower limit so it is impossible to set the normal power too high by mistake. This lower limit
is 0.10 kW below the setting. Example: C230=0.20 kW means a lower load limit of 0.10 kW. In other words, personal
protection will only work if the power used by the electric motor remains reasonably constant. The lower limit has a delay
of 2 seconds to prevent the load guard activating when the door is swinging shut, momentarily using insufficient power.
!
The specified normal power applies to opening and closing movements.
If the fixed limits result in excessive crushing force, you can adjust the crushing force by reducing the limit settings in
C232, C242 for the opening movement and C233, C243 for the closing movement. The initial value for these channels is
0.60 kW – you can reduce this value to a limit of your choice. In that case, the load guard is activated at the lower limit by
the normal power setting (C230, C240) -0.10kW and by the limit you set in C232, C233 and C242, C243. The values in
the above channels must be less than the normal power s0.20 kW.
If the following criteria are not all met, doors that fold or open against solid walls can only be certified from a safety point
of view if other personal safety measures are used.
•
The power read from the display must not exceed 0.4 kW for the opening and closing movements.
•
The load guard delay in channel C211 is set to 0.06 seconds or less.
•
The load guard connection delay in starts with channel C212 is set to 2 seconds maximum.
•
The reversal delay following activation of a safety edge or a load guard must not be set to longer than 0.2 seconds in
C493.
Without certified personal protection – setting upper limits in the load guard
!
Set the normal power to 0.00 kW in channel C230 for motor 1 and 0.00 kW in channel C240 for motor 2.
With these settings, the load guard is not certified for personal protection.
There is no lower limit – only an upper limit for high load. Read the values for C231 and C241 and add 0.20 kW, then
set the limits in C232 for the opening movement and C233 for the closing movement of motor 1. C242 and C243 are for
motor 2.
Reversal delay when the load guard is triggered
Select channel C493 and set a suitable delay.
!
Be careful when increasing the delay in C493, as this may increase the crushing forces and negate the safety settings
on which the type approval was based.
