(1) Setting of ECOMODE (Energy Saving Mode)
ECOMODE
is set OFF on factor y setting. See
SELECT/WIDE
button in page 13 to be activated.
This function enables a power saving operation by
reducing the cut-out pressure to a preset target
value, based on if the load/unload cycling interval is
longer than the set interval. If the cycling interval
time is longer than set interval, the system reduces
the cut-out pressure to a target so as to make the
cycling interval closer to the set value. Minimum
cut-out pressure is cut-in pr 7 psi (0.05
MPa). Minimum cycle time is 30 seconds.
If the cycle time is 30 seconds or more,
SELECT/
WIDE
light tur ns on (blinking) to indicate
ECOMODE
is effective. By setting the
ECOMODE
to ON, the display’s TYPE field shows SAVE for a
power saving operation. (
3.3.2
)
(2) Caution for using ECOMODE
Larger than standard air receiver tank is required to
keep the
ECOMODE
effective. (
5.4.4
).
Two different combinations of cut-out pressure and cut-
in pressures can be used: Pressure combination 1 and
2. The Combination 1 is used as the standard daily
settings. The Combination 2 is used for a limited time
period where different settings may be required, and
can be set for a certain time
(
3.3.5
and
3.4.2
)
Load light turns on (glowing) during load and turns off
during unload when pressure combination 1 is
selected. Load light turns on (blinking) during load and
turns off during unload when pressure combination 2 is
selected. ECOMODE and PQ wide mode is invalid
during pressure combination 2 is activated.
Exter nal selection of Cut-in/Cut-out pressure
combination 1 or 2 is an option. (F018-2). Contact the
local HITACHI distributor/master dealer or
representative office.
