Before using
1.6. Functions of the electronic control Comfort
By the electronic control Comfort you are able to regulate the sequence and the functionality of your dung removal system.
By the control, the motors and the rope winches will be activated and monitored. It is possible to control up to 6 drive units
(alleys), independently of each other.
The check on the scraper movement happens by voltage- and time monitoring of the single motors.
Settings and operation with the control happens by a remote with graphic display. The control of the dung removal system
can be manual or automatically.
The manual control happens directly by the push button (on the remote or external push button*). Thereby the scraper can
be moved forward or backwards and the automatic can be started or stopped.
The automatic mode (automatic) of the control can be started manual, auto-scheduled by a timer or temperature-controlled
by a temperature sensor. During the automatic, it is possible to choose between 4 programs, which program have to start
automatically. These 4 programs are...
- Program 1 (P1) with standard sequence (forward/backward)
- Program 2 (P2) with predefi ned settings (animal detection and cyclic operation before the drop down/end)
- Program 3+4 (P3, P4) individual programmable programs by teaching² (scraper move free adjustable)
Additional there are the following functions on the control:
- Automatic detection of the connected drive units
- Voltage control and auto correction of the breaking currents when there are voltage fl uctuations (e.g. when there is a
photo voltaic -system)
- Manual deactivating of drive units (alleys) without data loss
- Automatic program start by a time table (timer) with 24 starting times/alley
- Antifreeze and freeze protection ba an automatic program start when the temperature falls below a value (freeze
operation)
- Automatic adjustment of the starting intervals during the freeze operation when the temperature falls/increases
- One way operation per each starting impulse for walkways with slatted fl oor
- Using the scraper as a cow driver by manual auto scheduled operation by the function „drive“
- Signal output for an additional control (e.g. cross transport)
- Journal function, update and data backup with SD-memory card
- Emergency operation in case of system failure by manual control of the scraper by a push button on the board
TIP
By elongation, dirt or one side coiling of the traction rope on the drum, the position of the
scraper may change slightly. For an accordingly function of the scraper system you should
mount min. one scraper stop (on the home position). Thereby it is possible to reference the
scraper position of each drive.
We would not recommend a operation without even one scraper stop. If you want to reduce
the load of the traction rope by a scraper stop, use the end switch to switch over or -off the
scraper drive.
One drive unit (for one walkway) consists of
- Minimum 1 scraper
- Maximum 2 wire rope winch
The drive unit will be described as alley in the operation instruction!
Teaching = Manual learning of a program cycle by order input (forward - backward - stop) on the remote during the
scraper drive.

Assembling and connection
2. Assembling and connection
INFO
Consider during the assembling, that there is a stable radio connection between the
control and the Charge with the remote.
The radio connection depends on the environment of the system. Armoured concrete
walls, metal matrix, steel beams, fodder mixing wagons or other obstacles might attenuate
the signal!
Consider the following points when mounting the components (equipment).
- Mount the control on a central, accessible place on a level surface.
- Into the feed line has to be mounted a main switch in a striking distance to the control.
- The charge module with the remote can be mounted independent to the position of the control ESC300 (e.g. in the
stall).
- Mount the external radio module as central as possible in the operation area of the dung removal system, in a height
of min. 2,5 m. Armoured concrete walls and metal structures might attenuate the signal!
- The equipment should not be exposed to extremely heat, cold or extreme thermal fl uctuations.
- Protect the equipment of splash water or direct insolation.
- Mount all necessary screwing (enclosed) and close after assembling all coverings and not used openings on the
equipment.
- If it is possible, mount the emergency stop button unapproachable for the animals (possible errors), viewable and ac-
cessible. According to the local conditions, you have to mount several emergency stop buttons.
- Use only allowed cables and lines and do not exceed the maximum length of the lines.
- Remove the battery protection fi lm on the backside of the REMOTE before fi rst using (pull the protection fi lm out of
the battery case!)
2.1. Assembling the control ESC300
Mount the control ESC300 by the delivered mounting straps (fi g. 10/2) on a fi rm
surface. Insert the cable only from the bottom of the control.

Important information about the power supply of the control:
- The power supply for the entire control has to be lead over a shared main switch.
- It is not allowed to connect the feed line of the EXP300 directly to the ESC300. Connect the feed line of the EXP300
with the main switch, or use a conduit box.
- The charge will be connected self dependent from the control ESC300 (230 V/1~).
- Lines witch a cross section of max. 2,5 mm² can be connected (see scale page 14)
The following connected voltages are necessary for a failure-free operation:
- ESC300 (with control + relay) - 400 V / 3~/ PE / 50 Hz (no neutral wire)
- EXP300 (with relay) - 400 V / 3~/ PE / 50 Hz (no neutral wire)
- Charge - 230 V / 1~ / PE-N
Mount the emergency stop button:
Mount per walkway minimum one emergency stop button. By using several emergency stop buttons and an effective
positioning you are able to increase the safety of your dung removal system.
Mount the emergency stop buttons...
- on a accessible position, and also reachable for smaller persons (e.g. children)
- round danger areas (e.g. wall openings, gates, passages, dropping, drive winch)
- inaccessible for animals
ATTENTION!
If there is not minimum one emergency stop button connected on each alley, it is not al-
lowed to start the operation of the dung removal system!

Consider the following information about the list:
(1) Defi ne the cable cross section corresponding the motor power and the length of the line. If necessary mount a
conduit box after the main switch, to separate the feed line of the ESC300 and the EXP300.
(2) Emergency stop button - we recommend to mount min. one emergency stop button per drive unit (alley)!
The stated max. line length is the same as the cable length of the emergency stop line. By a series connection of
the emergency stop controls, there will be an effective line length of maximum 300 m.
(3) The controls release cable of the safety shutdown board to the ESC300 will be integrated into the emergency
stop line circuit and must be, according to this, considered for the maximum line length of the emergency stop.
(4) The used cable has to be screened and twisted. To increase the radio signal, it is possible to connect max. 2 radio
modules (concatenated in series or parallel). The max. line length per radio module is 100 m. This equates for 2
concatenated radio modules a length of max. 200 m.
Information about the lines for low voltage up to 24 V DC
It is not allowed to install current circuit with low voltage and mains voltage in the same wiring system. Consider for low
voltage lines, that there might be disturbances/malfunctions on the ESC300 by coupling of electromagnetic fi elds.
Do not lay the low voltage lines together with the electric power line, but separated with a spacer. Keep the length of the
lines as short as possible when there is low voltage.

Assembling and connection
2.6.2 Connection of the electronic control - ESC300
INFO
Into the feed line of the control you have to inte-
grate a main switch. Mount the main switch close
to the control, so that it is accessible when doing
maintenance works on the control.
The connection of the power feed line happens on the clamp power-inlet on the
board Control, on the left side on the control cabinet (fi g.15/1). The connection of
the phases L1-L2-L3 happens by a plug with screw terminals (fi g.15/3).
The connection of all earth conductors happens on the earth connector-terminal
strip on the left side of the box (fi g.15/2). A neutral wire will not be connected.
The power support of the boards relay 1+2 happens by the clamps extension.
These connections are pre-assembled factory provided and are easily to ex-
change.
2.6.3 Connection expansion module - EXP300
The power supply for the expansion module EXP300 happens, parallel to the
ESC300, by the main switch in the feed line. The feed line for the EXP300 will be
therefore connected parallel to the feed line of the ESC300 on the main switch.
Alternatively it is possible to mount an distribution box after the main switch and
connect there the feed lines. Connection examples see below - fi g.15/4+5
The connection on the EXP300 happens, same as for the ESC300, by the clamp
power supply and the earth connector-terminal strip (see description above chapter
2.6.2).
ATTENTION
It is not allowed to connect the power feed line for the
expansion module by the clamps „extension“on the
ESC300.
The cable length for the data bus is maximum 10 m!

Safety
3. Safety
The following safety advices are helping to avoid personal injuries and property damage. The operator of the dung removal
system has to assure, that general safety advices and regulations are considered and kept. Persons who are responsible
for the systems and the operation, as well as persons who are working with the dung removal system have to read and
understand the entire operating instruction. Inform yourself before the commissioning of the control about the position and
the correct condition of the safety- and protective devices.
Safety and protective devices are:
- Lockable main switch on the control
- Emergency stop button and safety shutdown board*
- Protective coverings and safety grid
3.1. General safety advices
1. Before commissioning the system, after the assembling and repair- and maintenance works, check the
entire assembling and the correct function of all safety and protective devices.
2. Before the maintenance and repair works on the dung removal system you have to switch off the control
and protect against undesired switch on (e.g. lock main switch)
3. Check before every manual start of the scraper drive
- that there are no persons in the working area of the scraper
- that the moving scraper means no danger for persons or animals
It is not allowed to:
- do repair and maintenance works on the system when it is switched on or during the operation
- arbitrary changes on the electronic control or on the components of the dung removal system
- operation methods, which derogate the security of the dung removal system.
- unattended operation of the system, if not all required safety and protective devices are working (see chapter 2.5).
Requirements provided by the customer:
To avoid danger areas between the scraper and solid building parts (e.g. wall breakthrough, doors, piles and parts of the
housing), you have to keep a safety distance of minimum 500 mm over the scraper path. An under usage of this safety
distance you have to clarify with the responsible Employer’s Liability Insurance.
The legal requirements are fully applicable. (e.g. VSG 2.1 § 16)
Technical safeguards for danger areas are e.g. connecting blocks on the danger area, trip wires or limited movement control
of the scraper.
3.2. Behaviour in danger situations
In visible or upcoming danger situations you have to:
- stop the system immediately by the emergency stop button, the STOP-button or by the main switch
- switch off the main switch and protect again undesired switch on (e.g. padlock)
- delete the danger cause or the error immediately
Only after deletion of the danger situation you can restart the operation and the system!

Safety
3.5. Unattended operation (automatic) of the dung removal system
Unattended operation of the system means, that the connected rope winches turns self dependent and moves the respective
scraper, by an automatic sent starting command of the control.
The respective starting command has to be set and started by the person who is responsible for the control ESC300.
The following starting commands for an unattended operation are possible:
- Automatic start of a program by a schedule (timer)
- Automatic start of a program by temperature (freeze operation)
The following conditions have to be provided for an unattended operation of the dung removal system:
- Unauthorized persons (especially children) or animals are not allowed to enter the working area of the dung removal
system
- You have to exclude all injury risks for the animals which may occur from structural conditions (consider the minimum
height, use safety contact strips)
- All safety devices, especially the emergency stop have to be accessible and functional
- It is not allowed to do service-, maintenance- or cleaning works as well as other works (e.g. animal husbandry) in the
working area of the dung removal system
- Keep the entries to the working area of the dung removal closed and mount information plates (automatic starting
dung removal system) on the entries to the working area of the dung removal system
3.6. Danger of self-depended starting scraper
In the following situations the scraper starts automatically:
- „Automatic on“ ( ) >>> corresponding schedule from the starting position
- „Automatic on“ ( ) >>> corresponding schedule after manual stop in the walkway (to the next starting time)
- „Frost on“ ( ) >>> after reaching the switching on temperature in the set interval
- „Frost on“ ( ) >>> after „STOP“ in the set interval
- „Frost on“ ( ) >>> when „PAUSE“ after 600 sec
ATTENTION
Switch the main switch on “OFF” when doing repair- and maintenance works in the
working area of the scraper. Thereby you are able to avoid danger which can occur by the
automatic starting scraper.
3.7. Attach warning- and information signs
To increase the safety of your dung removal system and to avoid accidents, mount
the following information signs:
- „Machine starts automatically“ (fi g.19/1) >>> assemble on the drive winches.
These warning signs you will get with the delivery of your system.
