airtelligence provis 2.0 1.2 airtelligence provis 2.0 Control

1.2 airtelligence provis 2.0 Control

The airtelligence provis 2.0 is a superordinate compressor control. A super-


ordinate control regulates several compressors linked together into a com-
bined compressor system. It takes over the coordination of compressed air
production of the various compressors and so controls the entire combined
compressor system.

How it works
Each compressor (e.g. BOGE SF 150, C 30) within the combined compressor
system has its own control which is subordinated to the airtelligence provis
2.0 control (z.B. BOGE FOCUS). The sole function of this is to monitor and
regulate the settings and operation of the various compressors. The subordi-
nate control must be adjusted in such a way that it follows the lead given by
the superordinate control. For this reason, read the corresponding instructions
in the operating instructions for the subordinate compressor controls as well.
It is also possible to connect up additional equipment, such as sensors, and
have this equipment monitored by the control.

Connecting the components


Connection of compressors and equipment to the control as well as subse-
quent communication take place through a RS-485 serial interface using a
Modbus RTU protocol.
Equipment is connected to the control using a Modbus interface module (Mod-
bus I/O). This also applies for compressors which do not have a control with a
suitable Modbus RTU interface (e.g. BOGE BASIC).
The Modbus addresses 1 to 16 are designed for compressors (including com-
pressors connected with a Modbus interface module) and the Modbus ad-
dresses 80 to 99 are designed for equipment.

ligence provis 2.0 control.

airtelligence provis 2.0 1.3 Safety

1.3 Safety

Read the airtelligence provis 2.0 Operating Instructions, and in particular the
following safety instructions, before starting up the control for the first time and
before performing any other work!

Switch cabinet The control is housed in a separate switch cabinet. The touch panel for the
control is integrated in the front panel of the switch cabinet. The control is oper-
ated with the switch cabinet closed using only the touch panel.

WARNING Risk of electric shock due to live parts!

There are live parts inside the switch cabinet. There is a risk of electric
shock if the switch cabinet is opened by unauthorized persons.
Î NEVER open the switch cabinet during operation!
Î Only use the touch panel when the switch cabinet is closed!

Note that these Operating Instructions only cover settings which you can make
using the control's touch panel (see the Touch panel section on page 7).

Operator responsibilities Switch cabinet


The key for opening the switch cabinet must only be handed out to qualified
persons (competent electricians) who have been authorized accordingly by
the operator.

Setting up the control system


Settings must only be made to the control by qualified persons who have been
authorized to do so by the operator.

Data storage Unsecured data from compressor or equipment configuration and configura-
tion of parameters for the control may be lost due to faults and/or necessary
resets to the control. airtelligence provis 2.0 provides options for saving data
which are described in the paragraphs which follow.

CAUTION Loss of unsecured settings

Settings that have not been saved on the SD card are deleted in the event
of a reset of the control.
Î Save the configuration of connected components and control parameter
configurations using the functions "Save" and "Save settings".

BOGE Compressor Control airtelligence provis 2.0 Page 5


airtelligence provis 2.0 1.4 Touch Panel

"Save" function
The control has an SD card which can be used to save configurations with the
aid of the "Save" button. Always use the option of saving data if this is present-
ed by the "Save" button. This permanently saves configurations (e.g. through
Profiles/Schedule) and ensures that they continue to be available after a fault
and/or a control reset.

"Save settings" function


It is recommended that settings are saved after completing the configuration
of control parameters in order to prevent standard settings from being lost.
This applies for compressor settings and control settings.

Preventing damage to Do not use sharp objects to operate the touch panel or any other object that
touch panel may scratch it. BOGE does not accept liability for any damage resulting from
improper use.

1.4 Touch Panel

The following paragraphs contain information on housing and operating the


touch panel. The airtelligence provis 2.0 control is operated using the touch
panel only.

Housing the touch panel The control is housed in a separate switch cabinet. The touch panel is
attached to the front panel of the switch cabinet.

airtelligence provis 2.0 1.4 Touch Panel

Using the touch panel The touch panel is operated by tapping with a finger or using a suitable stylus
with a plastic point. Just a light tap on the surface of the touch panel is suffi-
cient to activate the touch panel controls. Do not use sharp objects to operate
the touch panel or any other object that may scratch it.
Note the maintenance instructions for the touch panel in section 1.12 Main-
tenance on page 54.

View of operating inter- After the electrical startup of the control for the first time by BOGE service per-
face sonnel, the control automatically powers up into its operational state. It is not
necessary to additionally switch on the control. Once the control is operational,
the operating interface, or touch panel, of the control in the front panel of the
switch cabinet displays the standard view. The standard view corresponds to
the main view "State", sub-view "Station" (see also page 24).

Overview of operating By selecting the operating mode, you determine the form of operation of the
modes control and decide the criteria according to which compressed air should be
produced. To enable operating modes to be used, profiles must have been
created (see Set up profiles on page 53). Each profile can be assigned to a
different operating mode. The following table provides as overview of all oper-
ating modes:

compressor to start up due to the internal pressure control. In
such cases, always activate the mains isolator switch on the
compressor.

"Schedule" main view The use of profiles and digital outputs are controlled with the aid of the weekly
schedule (see also„"Profile" main view“, page 28).
The weekly schedule defines the days and times when certain profiles should
be active. This enables the compressed air production to be ideally adapted to
your operating processes. Besides the profiles, digital outputs can also be
switched in during the weekly schedule to activate equipment at a specific
time.
► "Schedule" main view

(1)

Fig. 1.11: "Schedule" main view

The "Schedule" main view provides an overview of the profiles that are active
during the week. It is not possible to carry out any settings in this view but only
to change the timescale view. The weekly schedule is set up in the "Edit
schedule" sub-view (see also „Set up schedule“, page 57).

Switching between periods in the weekly schedule is carried out in the


same way as the procedure in the "Analysis" course sub-view (see also
page 29).
i.e.:
– Reducing the period: Tap the weekly schedule.
– Increasing the period: Tap the time windows on the
left or right.
– The black bar in the weekly schedule (1) visualizes the current time. This
enables you to see at once which profile is in use at the current time.

When to set up a schedule


A weekly schedule should be set up when more than one profile is availa-
ble.
If only one profile is set up, e.g. because compressed air production should
always remain at an even level, then this profile will be automatically acti-
vated. It is possible, but not necessary, however in this case to set up a
weekly schedule.

A profile allows the compressed air production to be configured for a certain


period of time. Depending on the local operational consumption flow, one or
more profiles which are activated at certain times should be set up. The weekly
schedule governs the days of the week and the times that the profiles that
have been set up are active.
The currently edited profile with its parameters is shown in the upper area of
the display. It is possible to use the arrow buttons (2) to switch between the
profiles that have been set up (see also „Set up profiles“, page 53).

1.9 Configuring control parameters

Configuring control parameters (before using for the first time), defines all es-
sential parameters determining the compressed air production of the com-
bined compressor system. All values can be set in such a way that the control
is ideally adapted to the local compressor station and compressed air demand.
The configuration of parameters after the electrical startup of the control, the
connection of the compressors and the equipment and after powering the con-
trol up for the first time. The control is not ready for operation until the config-
uration of the parameters is fully completed.

Order of work steps


The structure and order of the instructions described in this section are ori-
entated towards achieving an ideal startup of the control.
All work steps can also however be carried out independently of each other.
Subsequent modifications and adaptations to the control are therefore pos-
sible at any time. The work steps described in these instructions are also to
be used for these steps!

NOTICE Faults due to faulty configuration of control parameters

The control is ready for operation when configuration of the parameters is


complete and has been correctly carried out.

Setting up In order to set up compressors, two work steps must be carried out:
compressors – Search for connected compressors
– Configuration of compressors found
These steps must be carried out before profiles or a weekly schedule can be
set up.

Search compressors
During the search (= scan), the control checks all existing bus addresses for
compressors that are connected and Modbus interface modules (= BUS par-
ticipants). Only compressors which are found can be activated and used for
compressed air production.

NOTICE Faults due to searching for compressors during operation

During the search, already active compressors do not receive any livebit
(regular signal which the airtelligence provis 2.0 sends to subordinate
controls). The subordinate controls may send fault messages to the air-
telligence provis 2.0.
Î To connect compressors subsequently, set the operating mode "Author-
ize all" (see section Operating modes on page 14).
Î In addition read the operating instructions for the subordinate compres-
sor controls.

The following details must be specified on page 1 of the sub-view


"Configure control parameters"

– Minimum and maximum runtime difference


– Maximum allowed rated power
– Maximum VSD compressors
– Starting value for calculating the net volume

The table below provides an overview explaining the various settings which
need to be carried out.

Configure control parameters - overview page 1

Parameters Meaning

Minimum runtime difference [h]/ The specification of the runtime difference (in hours) regulates the
Maximum runtime difference [h]/ changeover of compressors during operation.
This parameter must be set for the operating modes which take
into account the operating time and time which remains until the
next service (see Overview of operating modes on page 11).
The minimum runtime difference determines a minimum interval
between a changeover in order to avoid changing over too fre-
quently.
The maximum runtime difference defines the maximum runtime
difference according to which a compressor that is in operation is
switched for a compressor with a lower runtime (depending on the
specifications for the operating mode selected, e.g. priorities).

Page 50 BOGE Compressor Control airtelligence provis 2.0


airtelligence provis 2.0 1.9 Configuring control parameters

Parameters Meaning

Maximum allowed rated power [kW]


* This parameter limits the total rated power of the compressors
which are allowed to run at the same time in order to avoid over-
loading the local power network. If the limit set here is reached,
no further compressors will be switched in.
A value of 0 kW means that this function is deactivated. In this
case, it is possible to switch in all available compressors.

Maximum VSD compressors The specification of the maximum VSD compressors determines
the number of frequency controlled compressors that are author-
ized to control at any one time. Any compressors which may be
disregarded in this respect can still however be switched in as
fixed speed compressors if this is required to meet the air delivery
demand.
This function can be expedient on the grounds of efficiency, but
also in the event that pressure differences occur between the
frequency controlled compressors.

Starting value of net volume [m³] After the configuration of control parameters is completed, the net-
work size learn mode starts automatically. The purpose of this is
to determine the volume of the compressed air network. This value
is calculated iteratively.
To speed up the network size learn mode or obtain correct values
more quickly, an estimated network volume can be specified as
an initial magnitude for calculating the network size. This value
can be entered here.
A green dot beside the input field shows that the network size
learn mode has been completed and the actual value has been
calculated. The result in displayed in the input field in this case.
A recalculation can be started at any time by
entering and saving an initial magnitude (see also „Network size
learn mode“, page 63).

*
NOTICE Activating the parameter "Max. allowed rated power" can prevent
compressors from being switched in at critically low pressures!

Disruptions to operations are possible.


Î Only activate this function if the operating conditions make this abso-
lutely essential.

Page 52 BOGE Compressor Control airtelligence provis 2.0


airtelligence provis 2.0 1.9 Configuring control parameters

Configure control parameters - overview page 2

Parameters Meaning

Pressure Enter the number of network pressure sensors that are


sensors connected in this field

Average out the Activate this function with the checkbox only if:
pressure – Two network pressure sensors are connected and
– An averaged out value for the pressure readings
from each of the two sensors is required to be dis-
played . If this function is not activated, both pres-
sures will be displayed separately in the standard
view.

Regular network Activate this function if your network size changes reg-
size validation ularly and there are frequency controlled compressors
in the combined compressor system. The network size
learn mode will be started automatically in this case.

Upper utilization The purpose of this parameter is to optimise utilization


limit of the frequency controlled compressors. If the utiliza-
tion lies above this value for a significant length of time,
the control attempts to match the control range to con-
sumption by switching in a suitable compressor in or-
der to reinstate adequate control capacity for coping
with peak loads.

– Values beyond admissible limits are not accepted in the sub-view "Con-
figure control parameters" even while they are being entered (e.g. neg-
ative value).
– An acoustic signal draws attention in addition to the fact that the setting
being carried out will not be accepted.
– Settings carried out here must be confirmed by the "Save" function to
avoid input errors.
– Tap "Save" to adopt the settings.

Set up profiles This section describes how to set up profiles. New profiles can be set up or
existing profiles edited in the "Profiles" main view. Profiles must be set up
before a weekly schedule can be created. A maximum of 26 profiles can be
set up.

The full range of buttons for carrying out profile settings is only displayed in
administrator mode.

For selecting a profile to be edited:
1. Use the arrow buttons (encircled) to go through the existing profiles until
you find the profile you are looking for.
Æ The name of the profile selected as well as its parameters will be dis-
played and can be edited.
1a. If desired: Tap the name field (1) and give the profile a new name.

Page 54 BOGE Compressor Control airtelligence provis 2.0


airtelligence provis 2.0 1.9 Configuring control parameters

The following procedure applies both for "Create new profile" as well as
"Edit profile"
2. Tap the input field "P min" (2) to enter the lower pressure range limit.
3. Enter the desired value.
4. Tap the input field "P max" (3) to enter the upper pressure range limit.
5. Enter the desired value.
6. Tap the input field "Operating mode" (4) to select an operating mode.
Æ The selection list appears.
7. Select the required operating mode (see Overview of operating modes on
page 11).

To set the compressor priority for the profile:


8. Tap the "Priority" button (5) adjacent to each compressor.
9. Scroll through the selection list until you reach the desired priority (standard
setting is priority 2).

The compressor priority only needs to be set if the previously selected oper-
ating mode functions in a priority-dependent way.

In the case of the operating modes "Free air delivery and runtime" and
"Free air delivery and next service", the symbols shown below are used to
create runtime groups. This works in the same way as for creating priorities
(see „Overview of operating modes“, page 11).

Priority

All compressors in the combined compressor system can be assigned


different priorities. During operation, the control always switches in com-
pressors with the highest priority level first. If, for example, all priority 1 com-
pressors are running, then only priority 2 compressors will be switched in
if the compressed air demand increases, even if a more suitable compres-
sor is available in priority 3. In the same way, priority 2 compressors will
be switched off first, even if a more suitable compressor is available in pri-
ority 1.

The following priorities are available:

10. First of all, select a colour for the new profile. Use the arrow buttons to find
the desired colour (6).
Æ Profile settings are accepted immediately and do not need to be con-
firmed.

– Profile 1 has a particular significance: If the control loses contact with the
touch panel and the status of the control can no longer be displayed, the
control always switches to profile 1 in order to establish a defined state.
Always ensure, therefore, that profile 1 is always able to cover your max-
imum compressed air demand. In addition, profile 1 can always be acti-
vated using the symbol for manual operation (located on the left-
hand side of the current profile) in the "Analysis" sub-view. This symbol
only appears, however, if you are in administrator mode.
– Profiles 1-4 are of special significance: They can be activated with the
digital inputs on the control and then, if necessary,
overwrite the profile which should actually be active according to the
schedule. Input 1 activates profile 1; input 2 activates profile 2 etc.
In this way a certain operating state can be established using a physical
switch. Further details for connecting the digital inputs are given in the
circuit diagram provided for the control.

Save set of profiles


► "Profiles" main view
The set of profiles comprises all profiles that exist at the current time (profiles
1 to a maximum of 26). Using the "Save" function it is possible to store the
entire set of current profiles on the SD card.

Network size learn mode The network size learn mode function provides two different learn modes
which are automatically started depending on the composition of the com-
bined compressor system (fixed speed compressors only/fixed speed and at
least one authorized VSD compressor).
The purpose of both learn modes is essentially to determine the volume of the
compressed air network. Only if the network size is known is it possible for the
airtelligence provis 2.0 system to calculate and display a correct value for the
flow rate and to switch in compressors that exactly match this. This value is
calculated iteratively on the basis of certain status changes.
Provided that the automatically started learn mode has not yet ended, an or-
ange triangle is displayed next to the flow rate in the "Station" sub-view.

Since the learn mode has not yet ended, a rough estimate of the flow rate is
displayed. This can deviate or fluctuate significantly from the actual final value
depending on the network size specification and iteration status.
The steadier the compressed air demand is, the faster the learn mode is able
to deliver a quick final result. Conversely, this means that in extreme cases the
learn mode cannot be ended if the demand is constantly subject to high fluc-
tuation. In this case an estimated value which is as accurate as possible is se-
lected and entered in the "Configure control parameters" under "Starting value
of net volume" (see „Configure control parameters“, page 50). If the estimated
value is very close to the actual value, the learn mode will be ended faster and
the resulting flow rate correctly displayed.
Depending on the station concerned, the learn process is generally completed
within a few hours and at most within a few days.
If no data is available on the network size of the station, the following formula
can be taken as a guideline:
Network size specification = receiver size + (receiver size * 50%)
Depending on whether a large or small network is involved, the percentage
must be adapted accordingly. If no value at all is specified, a standard value
of 5 m³ is assumed.

The learn mode is often ended in periods with low consumption and an ac-
cordingly small amount of leakage (e.g. in breaks, at night or at the week-
end).

airtelligence provis 2.0 1.9 Configuring control parameters

Learn mode with fixed speed compressors only


This is the preferred learn mode. It delivers a network size faster and more
accurately than the other learn mode. This mode is automatically activated if
no authorized VSD compressors are available.
Even if VSD compressors are available, this learn mode can be activated. To
activate this learn mode, the number of compressors (which are given an au-
thorization) must be set to "0" in the view "Configure control parameters" in the
station parameter "Max. VSD compressors". The frequency controlled com-
pressors then run at a fixed speed. After the learn mode has ended, the fre-
quency controlled compressors can be authorized again with the station pa-
rameter "Max. VSD compressors".
This learn mode does not actively intervene in the operating process.

The procedure for activating this learn mode despite frequency controlled
compressors should always be used if the station constellation allows tem-
porary operation without VSD compressors.

Learn mode with authorized frequency controlled compressors


This learn mode is activated by default if VSD compressors are available.
It waits until the compressors have adjusted themselves (consumption = free
air delivery) This requires a steady or only infrequently fluctuating compressed
air consumption (e.e. overnight). Subsequently, the authorization for a com-
pressor is retracted if it has a high utilization level or its authorization to supply
compressed air is retracted if it has a low level of utilization.
This learn mode is not able to passively monitor the network size that is calcu-
lated.
If changes in the network volume are to be expected, the parameter "Regular
net size validation" should be activated in the view "Configure control param-
eters". In this case, the calculation is automatically repeated after a certain
time. If changes in the network volume are not (or no longer) to be expected,
the parameters should remain deactivated or be deactivated again.

Communication The communications settings are relevant for connecting the airtelligence
settings provis 2.0 control to an existing ethernet network. This connection is essential
for the functionality of the browser-based web visualization that is enabled by
the superordinate airtelligence provis 2.0 control. If this functionality is not
required, it is not necessary to enter any data in this view.
Please refer to the separate documentation about this function for details of
the settings which must be carried out if the web visualization is used.

Acoustic alert If parameters are incorrectly entered when configuring control parameters,
then a short acoustic alert may sound. The purpose of this alert is to draw your
attention to an incorrect entry and to the fact that the setting made will not be
accepted. Check the entry and correct it in order to complete the procedure.
The acoustic alert sounds, for example, if an incorrect entry is made while con-
figuring the compressor.

Fault message when When the "Save" button is tapped to save data on the SD card, the following
saving data message is displayed:
"Saving failed"
This message draws attention to a fault in the SD card.
In this case, contact your BOGE dealer or BOGE's customer service depart-
ment.

Fault message when When the "Load" button is tapped to call up data from the SD card,
loading data the following message is displayed:
"Loading failed"
This message draws attention to a fault in the SD card.
In this case, contact your BOGE dealer or BOGE's customer service depart-
ment.

Warning, fault and event All warning, fault and event messages can be displayed in the "Course" main
messages view ► sub-view "Events" (see also „"Events" sub-view“, page 30).
Please refer to the operating instructions for the subordinate controls as well
as the operating instruction for the Modbus interface module for information on
faults in compressors or components connected via a Modbus interface mod-
ule. These faults have fault codes <500.
A list of warning and fault messages issued by the airtelligence provis 2.0
can be found in the control logbook in the main view "Course" ► sub-view
"Events" ► Info button (see also „"Events" sub-view“, page 30). These faults
have fault codes <=500.
In the event of repeated or continuously occurring messages, contact your
BOGE dealer or BOGE's customer service department.

Cleaning the display The airtelligence provis 2.0 comes with a cleaning cloth for the touch panel
display. Clean the display as necessary with the damp cleaning cloth using
light pressure to remove any dirt.

Updating software Updating of touch panel software and control software is carried out by BOGE
service personnel.
The sub-view "File services and updates ILC" reached from the "Presettings"
main view is therefore only required by BOGE service personnel. These Oper-
ating Instructions do not therefore include a description of this sub-view.
To have the software updated, contact your BOGE dealer or BOGE's custom-
er service department.
