5.4.6 FCCVAK -pump - constant pressure between supply- and return-line with external
controller in use (SETUP 1)
The level of the constant pressure dierence between the inlet- and outlet-line of the system can be adjusted by
external control system (speed reference 0-10 V to the terminal 2).
Operation principle (speed reference 0-10 V for pump)
Before adjusting and balancing the system the dierential pressure transducer is connected to the external control
system. The main control valve must be opened as open as possible and then the flow is adjusted by potentiometer,
which is connected to the terminal 2 (constant speed) to replace external speed reference while adjusting and balan-
cing the system. When the system has adjusted and balanced, the value of the pressure dierence is read and saved
to the control system as a reference value.
Flow adjustment and balansing the system
Alternatively the correct pressure dierence value can be adjusted with potentiometer when the pump is connected
as a standard FCC -pump (check the previous page). When the system has adjusted and balanced, the reference of
the pressure dierence (m) can be read from the scale of the potentiometer (e.g. 20 % = 1.7 m), which is then saved
as a reference value to the external control system.
The switch in external control system
between terminals 4-6 väliin (e.g. automatic
summer stoppage).
*) When pump is delivered from the factory,
the wire of the potentiometer is connected
to the terminal 2 then the pump can be
operated as FCA -pump. By disconnecting
the wire and connecting the external voltage
signal to the terminal 2, the pump is control-
led externally.
Check and update the connections!
In the cover of the frequency converter is
curve plate, where the set value for the
pressure dierence can be found in ratio
(%) to the range of the reference of the
pressure dierence and to the position of
the potentiometer. Curve plate is valid, when
setup2 is selected, terminal 6-3 is closed.
According to the factory default, the setup1
