0555 0555 SWITCH INTV Switch interval for lead / lag alternation<br />

24 hours (for cascade serial / synchron only!)<br />

Possible settings: 0 – 250 hours<br />

This parameter allows an automatic change over of the master pump and the assist pumps, to provide<br />

even wear and achieve even operating hours of the pumps.<br />

The switch interval is used for HYDROVAR Master Inverters only (connected via the RS-485 interface) by<br />

using operation mode Cascade Serial or Cascade Synchron.<br />

Synchronous Control<br />

By using the synchronous control mode all pumps in the system maintain the set pressure by running at<br />

the same frequency.<br />

The 2nd pump starts, when the 1st pump reaches the ENABLE FRQ. [0515] and the system pressure drops<br />

below ACTU. VAL. DEC. [0510] -> both pumps will run synchronously.<br />

The assist pump will stop, when the frequency drops below the set SYNCHR. LIMIT [0560]. This function<br />

creates a hysteresis effect which prevents the assist pump against a frequent on/off operation.<br />

To determine the correct setting:<br />

• Start the first pump in JOG Mode [62]; Increase the frequency till you reach the required value. Check<br />

the frequency ( = f0 ) at zero consumption<br />

• Set the synchronous limit (f0 + 2..3 Hz)<br />

• Set the synchronous window between 1 or 2 Hz (depending on the pump curve and set point).<br />

0560<br />

0560 SYNCHR. LIM.<br />

0.0 Hz<br />

Frequency limit for synchronous control<br />

Possible settings: 0 .0 Hz - Max. frequency<br />

This parameter is used for switching off the first assist pump in synchronous mode. If the frequency of<br />

both pumps drops below this selected value, the first assist pump stops.<br />

0565 SYNCHR. WND.<br />

0565<br />

2.0 Hz<br />

Possible settings: 0.0 – 10 Hz<br />

Frequency limit for switching off the next assist pump.<br />

E.g. switching off the 3RD PUMP:<br />

Frequency window for synchronous control<br />

All 3 pumps are running at a frequency < SYNCHR. LIM. [0560] + SYNCHR. WIN. [0565]<br />

Or: switching off the 4TH PUMP:<br />

All 4 pumps are running at a frequency < SYNCHR. LIM. [0560] + 2x SYNCHR. WIN. [0565]<br />
