Trouble-Shooting Chart - Pentax IPFC-Serie Betriebsanleitung

9. Trouble-shooting chart

LCD does not switch on after powering
the IPFC
Power line of IPFC is interrupted by the
differential protection contactor
When performing sensor test
operation, SENSOR OFF alarm occurs
Frequency and pressure oscillation on
constant pressure control mode
DOL pump stops and starts
continuously
Measured pressure drops too much
before IPFC starts the pump.

Check the connecting flat cable between the LCD board (attached to
the cover) and the control board

Check the fuses

Check that the power cables are properly connected.

Check the leakage current to ground of EMC filter

Following a rapid off/on the power supply, the differential contactor
can interrupt the power. After turning off the IPFC it is recommended
to wait at least 1 minute before restarting.

Check that the sensor cable is properly connected to the sensor device
and to the IPFC.

Make sure that the sensor and its cable are not damaged.

Check that the operating range of sensor is of 4 -20 mA type and the
value of 15 V is within the voltage feed range of the sensor.

Check if the water tank and its air pressure are correctly set. It may be
necessary to increase the tank volume or reduce the pre-charge
pressure.

Check the ki & kp parameters (Control parameters menu). At first, it is
suggestable to increase the Ki value. If it not enough reduce of one unit
the Kp value.

Increase delta control.

Check to see if the water tank and it's air pressure are correctly set. It
may be necessary to increase the tank volume or reduce the pre-
charge pressure.

Decrease the delta start value (Control Parameters menu) .

Check to see if the water tank and it's air pressure are correctly set. It
may be necessary to increase the tank volume or reduce the pre-
charge pressure.

Modify the value of ki & kp parameters (Control Parameters menu).
At first, it is suggestable to reduce the Ki value. If it is not enough
increase of one unit the Kp value.
