 FAN SPEED CONTROL ADR 80 - 230

1.0 ADR REGULATOR – WORKING SPECIFICATIONS

The regulator controls one fan, or a group of fans, driven by a 50/60 Hz three-/single-phase motor, via an algo-
rithm that adjusts the fan speed in accordance with a set of adjustable parameters and pressure or temperature
measurements made in real time by the card.

2.0 OPERATION AND DISPLAY WINDOWS

The ADR regulator is operated and programmed through the display
panel keys and is normally mounted on the control panel. If it is not
necessary to have the display of values, the card can operate
without the display panel.
With the panel assembled it is possible to display the following data:
- All the programming steps
- Pressure/temperature for each circuit of connected sensors or
transducers
- Indication of which circuit controls the fans
- The SET values
- Supply voltage percentage at the fans

4.0 SETUP PARAMETERS AND ADJUSTMENT FUNCTIONAL PARAMETERS

Programming of the device is made by two systems of parameters, the Set-up and the programming. SETUP
parameters do not require programming during normal operation of the adjustment, but determines how the
regulator works.
Programming parameters determine the real response of the system during adjustment. Listed below are pa-
rameters followed by the default settings.

4.1 SETUP PARAMETERS

Programming of the SETUP is possible only when the regulator is off. In this position pushing the 3 PROG key
displays the main MENU as follows:

Î S E T U P SETUP parameters

L A N G U A G E Language field

Pushing again the key 3 PROG the display shows the frame to modify the first Set-up parameter

Î P O W E R S U P P L Y Selects the card supply voltage (230V or 400V).

With the arrow keys it is possible to display the next windows for parameters set, as described below
Î R E G U L A T I O N Selects the adjustment system with:
I N P R E S S U R E Ú TEMPERATURE, PRESSURE, VOLT

WORKING IN TEMPERATURE
Working in TEMPERATURE requires the use of NTC10K type sensors.
This mode automatically stops the display of windows related to pressure or volt adjustment.
WORKING IN VOLT
When working in VOLT a signal coming from an external adjustment source must be already present.
The input signal is 0 – 10 V.
Modify SET - Point impossible
Set SET - Adjustment impossible
Display: display of the measured value given in VOLT.

6.5.3 Minimum Speed

Even with an external Signal of 0-10V or 0-20 mA it is possible to set a Minimum and Maximum
speed. This is done via remote control D-LCD. When the Minimum speed of the Setup falls below the
setting the connected Motor will be cut off. This happens even when the external control still calls for
speed.

6.5.4 Maximum Speed

By using an external control for ADR with 0-10 V and 0-20 mA signals it is possible to limit the maxi-
mum speed, too. When the maximum speed is reached the internal control of the ADR 80 /230
limits the speed to the set point “MAX Speed” despite that the external control is asking for an higher
speed

In contrary by connecting pressure transducer or temperature sensors to the ADR80/230.

Here the maximum speed of 100% always will be reached when the setting of the Maximum
pressure is exceeded.

7.0 System '' MASTER and SLAVE ''

If the maximum current of a system exceeds the current of ADR 80 or ADR 230 a Master and Slave system can be used as
extension to the current required. Here one or two pressure or temperature signals can be connected to the Master and car-
ried to the necessary Slaves.

Basics which have to be noticed:

1) All ADR do have to have the same setup configuration
2) The speed controller which receives the signals of the sensors has to be defined as “MASTER”
3) The Speed controller which are following take over the “SLAVE” function
4) In DUO-SET applications (2 different Set points) the connections for SET1 and SET 2 have to be in line.
5) In accordance to the input signal of pressure transducer or temperature sensor jumpers have to be placed
(see drawings below)

10.0 SCHEMATIC WORKING DIAGRAM OF ADR REGULATOR

Working principle of the device (in pressure or temperature)

In hand of the temperatures or the pressures and the supply voltage of fan, the graph can be divided into 5 sectors.

Sector 1:
Temperature or Pressure before Start => Supply voltage to fan is zero.
Sector 2:
Temperature or Pressure between Start and Set – Proportional Range => Minimum supply voltage to the fan.
Sector 3:
Temperature or Pressure between Set – Proportional Range and Set + Proportional Range => Supply voltage in-
creases proportional between the minimum and the maximum.
Sector 4:
Temperature or Pressure between Set + Proportional Range and Max => Fan supply voltage equal to the maximum
set voltage
Sector 5:
Temperature or Pressure higher then Max => Max fan supply voltage (400V, 230V, 460)

Note: The transition from sector 5 to sector 4 has a certain dead band to avoid unwanted hunting between the two working
speeds. Same situation occurs for transition from sector 2 to sector 1. In this case the adjustment will use an adapted dead
band to perform better in accordance to the dynamic characteristics of the cooling system.

13.2 Alarm Management

A number of alarms are displayed. The display shows the type of alarm and gives an indication of the problem.
The table below shows the alarms displayed, the action at the fan adjustment and the reason of the fault.

Alarm Reason To do
ALARM PHASE • Wrong Voltage • Press OFF Key and with PROG Key correct setting of
POWER SUPPLY • No funktion of controller Voltage

ALARM PROBE 1 / 2 • Signal line broken • Change signal line

ERROR • Over or under Limit • Change settings.
• Sensor (Probe) defekt, • Change Sensor

15.1 ADR EX Remote Control (Accessories)

When using the additional ADR EX board CONFIGURATION
of the serial port in the set up of the ADR board SERIAL PORT: I/O O or
from 2400 or 9600 Baud to I/O O or I/O C I/O C

The ADREX-board (order no. ZPK01) allows an external cut off to the ADR controller. It makes sure that all
functions of the controller are OFF or ON. The power supply to the controller remains.
By using an Relay it is possible to extend a alarm signal for an malfunction of the speed controller to a far away
place.
Input and output has to be connected potential free.
Remark: By using the serial port of the ADR it is not possible any longer to connect the ADR to a network with
modem etc.
The ADREX board (ZPK01) is supplied with a short connecting cord to serial port ADR and Plastic mounting
holder. ADREX is compatible to safety regulation IP 22
