6.3 Setting into Operation
♦ Mount the drive unit onto a fixing device for wall-mounting (refer to chapter 4.1).
♦ Insert the PRO LC unit into the protection cover and close the complete system (refer to chapters 4.2).
♦ Determine the discharge period (refer to chapter 6.7).
♦ Set volume of PRO LC unit, discharge period, outlets of MP-6, and the PIN via buttons on display (refer to
chapter 6.8) or set the lubricator to impulse mode (refer to chapter 6.10).
♦ Plug the connecting cable into the lubricator and connect the strands to your control system (refer to
chapter 4.3).
♦ Turn the lubrication system on by supplying voltage (see chapter 6.5)
♦ Carry out an additional discharge (refer to chapter 6.8).
If the drive motor has started and the green LED is lit, the lubricator has started to discharge. The display
indicates the remaining volume (% Vol.) of the PRO LC unit.
The operator must always check the customer-specific settings and if necessary change them before the
lubricator is set into operation!
6.4 During Operation
♦ Carry out regular inspections during the operation. You should pay special attention with regard to leakage
and to the condition of the lubricator!
♦ Check the condition of the lubricant tube and the connections regularly!
♦ Check the filling level of the transparent PRO LC unit regularly!
♦ After one or several additional discharges, you have to calculate the reduced discharge period and note this
on your lubrication and maintenance schedule.
♦ If your control system indicates a malfunction, you have to determine its cause directly via the display of the
perma PRO C. You can check for possible causes using the trouble shooting guide (refer to chart 8, chapter
8.3). If the fault cannot be fixed, please contact your local supplier for technical support.
Additional discharges and long machine standstills must always be taken into account with regard to the
remaining discharge period of the lubricator.
6.5 Switching the Lubrication System On
To turn the lubrication system on, you have to switch on the supply voltage for the perma PRO C. The indication
(“ ”) on the display is replaced by an indication of the remaining volume – e.g. % VOL (with a new PRO
LC unit) (see figure 13). The green LED starts blinking and the malfunction output sends a “High” signal (system
OK) to the connected control system.
6.6 Switching the Lubrication System Off
To switch the lubrication system off (refer to figure 14) you have to switch off the supply voltage of the
perma PRO C. The display no longer indicates the remaining volume – % VOL – but indicates (“ ”) instead.
When the lubrication system is switched off, all of the settings are saved. This means that if you start the
lubricator again, it will take up the operation at the point where it had been switched off.
The fault output sends a “Low” signal (system not working) to the control system.
