4.1 GUIDELINE for the electrical connection
During the entire cooling and cleaning process the tank monitor controls the correct
operation of all components, in order to guarantee the perfect condition of the milk.
The objective is to detect problems with the milk storage as early as possible by a
warning so that the immediate solving of these problems is possible and economic
damage can be prevented.
In particular the following is monitored:
- Minimum and maximum milk temperature during the cooling process
- Power failure
- Agitator function
- Minimum and maximum temperatures during the cleaning process
- e.g.
Any errors are indicated by two LEDs and the corresponding error codes are blinking
simultaneously on the display.
In case of errors which may jeopardize the milk quality the red LED flashes with the
information “NO LOADING”!
A detailed description of the error codes can be found in section 6.5.
Installation
By evaluating “external signal transmitters” of your existing system the tank monitor
can
- find out the operation mode of the cooling tank
- monitor other functions and conditions of the tank (agitator, detergent tank
etc.).
“External transmitters” can be compressors, valves, level monitors or float switches
but also signal transmitters of other system components such as milking robots or
plate heat exchanger.
Proceed as follows:
Familiarize yourself with the function of the
“automatic detection of the operating
mode” (section 4.3).
Determine which of the “external signal transmitters” are to be connected for the
different kind of functions of the tank monitor. See diagram in section 4.4.
Connect the tank monitor together with the mains supply and the external signal
transmitter according to the electrical wiring diagram which is in the switch box of
the tank monitor or on the internet.
The tank guard is only ready for use after the correct date and time have
been entered and the parameters have been adjusted accordingly.
Commissioning without these settings is not permitted.
The guideline for the correct setting of the parameters can be found in section 7.1.
