DANGER
Danger to life and limb
In this Operating Mode, the compressor
can start automatically at any time and
for an unlimited duration after a power
loss.
➯
To enable this operating mode, a
code must be requested from Gard-
ner Denver.
➯
The request absolutely must include
the country of installation.
➯
Before the compressor is allowed
to be run in this Operating Mode,
all valid safety specifications must
be met and all required protective
equipment must be installed.
Start delay
If a compressed air station comprises several
compressors, and if all compressors start up again
simultaneously when the power supply is restored,
then the power supply may be overloaded and fail.
Different start delay times that are set individually
can be used to set up a staged start-up, which in-
creases the load more uniformly.
Setting up start-up delay
1
Press the register card <
Settings

Press the <Number Keys> in order to set the
desired delay time before restarting.
The <

DANGER
In this Operating Mode, the compressor
can start up automatically at any time.
➯
Post warning signs on the compres-
sor.
➯
Keep the compressor room locked.
➯
Instruct the personnel.
➯
Install a main disconnect switch per
EN 60204 and post a warning sign
on it.
NOTICE
Property damage
➯
Only potential-free contacts may be con-
nected to the terminal strip.
Outside voltages can destroy the controller.
➯
The potential-free contacts may not be any
further than 20 meters from the terminal
strip.
If necessary, coupling relays must be in-
stalled in the electrical enclosure.
The "
Remote Start/Stop
" function makes it possi-
ble to start and to stop the compressor by remote
control, e.g., from a control room.
This function is programmed permanently and
uses specific terminals (see circuit diagram).
As long as the potential-free contact is closed, the
compressor runs. If the contact is opened, then a
soft-stop takes place and the compressor stops.
Activating the "Remote Start/Stop" function
DANGER
Electric shock
Deadly electrical voltage
➯
Work on the electrical equipment
may be performed by specialized
electrical technicians only.
➯
For speed-controlled models ( RS )
there is a risk of electric shock from
the charged capacitors.
Disconnect the compressor and wait
10 minutes before touching electri-
cal components.
➯
Check the DC bus voltage.
