6.6.2 T1: Shutdown time after low pressure signal
This sets the inverter shutdown time starting from reception of the low pressure signal (see Impostazione della
rilevazione di bassa pressione par. 6.6.15.5). The low pressure signal may be received on any of the 3 inputs, by
suitably configuring the input (Setup degli ingressi digitali ausiliari IN1, IN2, IN3 par. 6.6.15).
T1 can be set between 0 and 12 s. The default setting is 2 s.
6.6.3 T2: Shutdown delay
This sets the delay after which the inverter shuts down after shutdown conditions have been reached: system
pressure and flow at minimum values.
T2 can be set between 2 and 120 s. The default setting is 10 s.
6.6.4 GP: Proportional gain coefficient
The proportional gain should generally be increased for elastic systems (wide and PVC pipelines) and reduced in the
case of rigid systems (narrow and steel pipelines).
To maintain constant system pressure, the inverter performs a PI check on the measured pressure error. On the basis
of this error, the inverter calculates the power to supply to the electric pump. The behaviour of this check depends on
the set parameters GP and GI. To meet the different requirements of the various types of hydraulic systems where the
system may operate, the inverter enables the selection of parameters that are different from the default settings. On
virtually all systems, the factory setting of parameters GP and GI are optimal. However, in the event of problems
with regulation, these settings may be modified as required.
6.6.5 GI: Integral gain coefficient
In the event of significant pressure drops on sudden increases in flow, or a slow system response, increase
the value of GI. Otherwise, in the event of pressure oscillations around the setpoint, reduce the value of GI.
A typical example in which the value of GI should be reduced is that in which the inverter is located far
from the electric pump. This distance causes hydraulic elasticity which influences control of PI and
therefore pressure regulation.
IMPORTANT: To obtain satisfactory pressure settings, both values GP and GI should be adjusted.
6.6.6 FS: Maximum rotation frequency
This sets the maximum pump rotation frequency.
This sets a maximum rpm limit and can be set between FN and FN - 20%.
FS, in any conditions of regulation, ensures that the electric pump is never controlled at a frequency higher than the
set value.
FS can be automatically reconfigured following modifications to FN, when the above ratio is not verified (e.g. if the
value of FS is less than FN - 20%, FS will be reset to FN - 20%).
6.6.7 FL: Minimum rotation frequency
FL is used to set the minimum pump rotation frequency. The minimum admissible value is 0 [Hz], and the maximum is
80% of FN; for example, if FN = 50 [Hz], FL can be set between 0 and 40[Hz].
FL can be automatically reconfigured following modifications to FN, when the above ratio is not verified (e.g. if the
value of FL is greater than 80% of the set FN value, FL will be reset to 80% of FN).
Set a minimum frequency according to the pump manufacturer's specifications.
The inverter will not control the pump at a frequency below FL; this means that if the pump, at the
frequency FL, generates a pressure above the set point, there will be a pressure overload in the system.
6.6.8 Setting the number of inverters and reserves
6.6.8.1 NA: Active inverters
This sets the maximum number of inverters involved in pumping.
It can be set with a value between 1 and the number of inverters present (max. 8). The default value for NA is N, i.e.
the number of inverters in the series; this means that if inverters are removed or inserted in the series, NA always has
the same number as that of the inverters, as read automatically. If a value other than N is entered, the system sets to
the maximum number of inverters that can be involved in pumping.
This parameter is used when there is a limited number of pumps to be kept in operation, and if one or more inverters
are to be kept as reserves (see IC: Configurazione della riserva section 6.6.8.3 and the following examples).
In the same menu page, the user can view (without the option of modification) a further two system parameters related
to this value, i.e. N, the number of inverters detected automatically by the system, and NC, the maximum number of
simultaneous inverters.
