3 Functional Description 3.1 Mechanical design Picture 3.1.1 1 - control magnet P - input pressure 2 - tappet for power transmission P A - output signal pressure 3 - potentiometer X0 and X1 4 - manual operation knob T1 - tank return line 5 - electric connection T2 - tank return line 6 - control housing F Mag - magnetic force 7 - control piston F Hyd - hydraulic force 8 - cover 3.626 016136 en Page 8/15
3.2 Operation see picture 3.1.1 A set signal w = 4...20 ma generates a magnetic force F Mag in the control magnet the limits of which can be adjusted by means of the potentiometers X0 and X1 and which is then transmitted to the control piston via the tappet. The hydraulic force F Hyd being proportional to the output signal pressure P A acts against this force. When both forces are identical, the control piston is located in the "hydraulic centre position" shown and the output signal pressure P A corresponds to the set signal. The "hydraulic centre position" is the control piston position where this piston performs minimum oscillating movements in the area of the control edges P P A and P A T until the output signal pressure P A corresponds to the value set by F Mag. When increasing, for example, the set signal and thus F Mag from this condition, the control piston position changes so that the output P A is connected to the feed pressure P and P A is blocked to the tank return line T1. Now the pressure P A increases until the control piston returns to the "hydraulic centre position" and P A corresponds to the new set signal. Function of manual operation knob: The control magnet of I/P converter is provided with manual operation knob. With help of this manual operation knob, a spring force can be adjusted and set, instead of the magnetic force F Mag, which acts on the control piston via the magnet armature and tappet. The hydraulic force F Hydr. being proportional to the output signal pressure P A also acts against this spring force here. So the output signal pressure can be adjusted without electric connection. 4 Transport and Storage The outer surfaces of I/P converter are protected by means of a preserving surface coat. The inner parts are preserved by oil prior to shipment. This preservation ensures the I/P converter's protection against corrosion for a short storage under normal ambient temperatures. The I/P converter is shipped in a special packing. All holes are sealed by means of plugs or protective caps. 3.626 016136 en Page 9/15
5 Installation and Connection Perform any connection and installation work on the I/P converter only when it is deenergized and the oil supply system is turned off. When removing the seals from the I/P converter, existing residual oil may leak out. Collect any oil leaking out in an appropriate receptacle. When assembling the piping, ensure that it is fastened to fixed structures, free from vibration and not to moving equipment. Temperature variations of the piping (thus alterations in length) should not apply external forces to the I/P converter. Fibrous or hardening sealing compounds, such as hemp or adhesive cement, must not be used. Prior to mounting the piping, clean them from dirt, scale, sand, chips etc. Pickle or flush welded pipes. After having mounted the piping and hose lines, clean and flush them thoroughly. Make sure that the I/P converter is not connected. Maximum cleanliness is imperative for all work. Prior to loosening unions, clean the external environment. Close all holes by means of protective caps. Make sure that impurities cannot enter the I/P converter or the piping. => For flushing, a flushing plate, art. No. 43.8565.10, is available. 5.1 Hydraulic connection The hydraulic connection on the I/P converter is made by means of connecting bores on the I/P converter bottom. Sealing is made by O-rings. Dimensions and position of connecting bores, please see chapter 11. => To connect the I/P converter to a piping system, adapters, art. No. 43.9299.80, 43.9300.11 and 91865632 are available. 5.2 Electric connection Connecting wires to the I/P converter provided by the customer shall be screened lines. Connect the screens on the infeed point to the reference potential. Avoid that the connecting wires to the I/P converter run parallel to the wires of loadcommutated inverters. If an I/P converter with ex-protection is connected, observe the requirements stipulated in the relevant standards and regulations. Please refer to the outline drawings of chapter 11 with regard to the connecting diagrams. 3.626 016136 en Page 10/15
6 Commissioning and Adjustments 6.1 Commissioning The I/P converter was adjusted and tested at Voith Turbo's works by means of the potentiometers X0 and X1. The test results as well as the parameters set are documented in an attached test certificate. The set potentiometers are provided with a protective cap to avoid any unintentional maladjustment. Observe the following on commissioning of the I/P converter: Check the line mounting, connection and flow direction to and on the I/P converter. Check the electric connection of I/P converter. Check the oil cleanliness. Specified oil cleanliness, see chapter 1: Technical Data. Impurities in the oil reduce the service life and reliability of the hydraulic components used and also impair the control behaviour of I/P converter. Switch on the 24 VDC power supply. Switch on the oil supply. Set the signal 4...20 ma and check the output signal pressure. Now commissioning is complete. 6.2 Adjustments With help of the potentiometers X0 and X1, the pressure range can be easily adjusted to the respective requirements within the limits indicated in chapter 1. When doing so, observe that X1 should be adjusted before X0. Adjustment of max. output signal pressure: During this adjustment and on operation, make sure that the input pressure exceeds the set output signal pressure at 20 ma by approx. 1.5 bar. 3.626 016136 en Page 11/15
At a set signal of 20 ma, adjust the potentiometer X1 so that the max. output signal pressure is on the I/P converter output. Direction of control action: Pressure increase by turning the potentiometer X1 clockwise (cw). Adjustment of minimum output signal pressure: At a set signal of i=4ma, adjust the potentiometer X0 so that the min. output signal pressure is on the I/P converter output. Direction of control action: Pressure increase by turning the potentiometer X0 clockwise (cw). 7 Operation 7.1 Operation with manual operation knob Operation with manually controlled rotary knob is possible without electric energy. On operation with manually actuated rotary knob, uncontrolled stroke movements of the hydraulic components controlled by the I/P converter output might produce due to the increase in the output signal pressure. Operation with manual operation knob is only possible when the circlip is removed from the manual operation knob. On completion of operation with manual operation knob, move the manual operation knob in its final position by turning it counterclockwise and pushing in the circlip to its final position. How to adjust the output signal pressure: Remove the circlip. Slowly adjust the manual operation knob and observe the output signal pressure. Direction of control action: Pressure increase on the I/P converter output by clockwise (cw) rotation. 7.2 Operation with set signal Operation with set signal is only possible after having turned the manual operation knob counterclockwise in its final position and pushing in the circlip to its final position. When the supply voltage is switched on, the output signal pressure can be adjusted continuously by the set signal 4...20 ma, within the limits set by the potentiometers X0 and X1. 3.626 016136 en Page 12/15
8 Switching-off If an I/P converter is switched off for reasons of repair or unit shutdown, proceed as follows: Switch off the oil supply system and reduce the pressure in the existing accumulators if necessary. Switch off the 24VDC supply voltage and the set signal. Clean the I/P converter, location of installation and particularly the area around the installation surface of the hydraulic component. Remove the I/P converter and collect the residual oil leaking out of the piping and I/P converter. Close all holes on the hydraulic component and pack the I/P converter carefully and with clean material to avoid any damage, in particular of the electric connections. In the event of a possible disposal of I/P converter, observe the local applicable regulations regarding the environmental protection. The I/P converter contains: synthetic materials copper electronic components residual oil 9 Servicing For a trouble-free and reliable operation of the I/P converter, it is necessary to perform supervision, maintenance and repair work in certain intervals. Continuous monitoring: Monitoring of lines, unions and connections on the I/P converter with regard to leakage, impurities and damage. Eliminate any leakage, impurity and damage noticed, if required, during appropriate operating modes. Monitor the I/P converter's control behaviour for any changes. Analyse and eliminate the causes, if required, during appropriate operating modes. Monitoring after approx. 740 operating hours, max. one / month: Take an oil sample from the oil tank and analyse for impurities by solid and suspended matters, water content, discolouration and air bubbles. Check the oil sample cleanliness. If required, clean or change the oil during an appropriate operating mode. Monitoring after approx. 8000 operating hours, max. one / year: 3.626 016136 en Page 13/15
Take an oil sample from the oil tank and analyse it chemically. If required, clean or change the oil during an appropriate operating mode. Check and retighten, if necessary, the I/P converter's electric connections. 10 Trouble-Shooting Malfunction: Pressure variations Cause: low or considerably varying input pressure Under load and in particular in case of a higher output signal pressure, a lower input pressure may lead to pressure variations. Remedy: Increase and/or stabilise the input pressure by taking appropriate measures (e.g. accumulator). See also chapter 6.2. Malfunction: Pressure variations Cause: air inclusion in the I/P converter On first commissioning, air inclusion may lead to output pressure variations. Remedy: By means of changing the set signal periodically (approx. 0.5 Hz) by +/- 6 ma over a few minutes, the air in the anchor chamber of control magnet escapes. Malfunction: Pressure variations Cause: dirt particles in the hydraulic component On first commissioning or after longer operation with a contaminated oil, dirt particles might get inside the I/P converter thus impairing the control piston function due to increased abrasion. Remedy: Open the hydraulic component and clean the inner elements. Examine the inner elements and replace them in case of damage. 3.626 016136 en Page 14/15
Malfunction: Output signal pressure P A 0bar Cause: monitoring system causes shutdown Shutdown by the monitoring system can be recognized only if the OK signal is evaluated in accordance with the connecting diagram. Remedy: If the malfunction cannot be remedied by the reset described in chapter 1, please try to adjust the output signal pressure with help of the manually controlled rotary knob. If the pressure can be adjusted by the manually controlled rotary knob, the control magnet is defective and the I/P converter needs to be replaced by new one or repaired. If the pressure cannot be adjusted by the manually controlled rotary knob, please check the input pressure. 11 Enclosures Outline Drawing 3623-017369 (normal design without hydr. attenuation) Outline Drawing 3623-017370 (ex-protected design without hydr. attenuation) Outline Drawing 3623-017449 (normal design with hydr. attenuation) Outline Drawing 3623-017464 (ex-protected design with hydr. attenuation) Flushing plate 43.8565.10 Adapter 43.9300.11 Adapter 43.9299.80 Adapter 91865632 3.626 016136 en Page 15/15
