  • 2 General description

    2.1 IntroductionDescription

    ES 6, general view

    The ES 6 is a stand-alone central control system that regulates the net pressure within programmable limitsby starting and stopping, loading and unloading (in case of fixed speed compressors) or controlling the speed(VSD compressors) of the connected compressors according to a programmed algorithm (see section Equalwear sequence mode).Up to six compressors, connected to a common air net, can be connected.The ES 6 can control fixed speed compressors as well as frequency converter driven compressors (VSD).Fixed speed Atlas Copco compressors may have any Elektronikon regulator or may be pressure switchcontrolled. VSD compressors must however have an Elektronikon regulator of the fourth (MkIV) or fifthgeneration (Mk5) in order to have all control options.Competitor VSD compressors can only be started and stopped by the ES 6 via digital contacts.The status of each compressor can be checked on the display. Operating parameters are accessible via themenu.The ES 6 consists out of a metal cubicle with: An Elektronikon Graphic Plus controller (Mk5) An expansion module type I/O 2 (part number 1900 5200 31) A 4-20 mA pressure transmitter (delivered loose) A supply transformer, fuses and connectors

    Controller typesOver the past years, many different versions of the Elektronikon regulator are developed. A short survey:

    2.2 Single point pressure measurementDescription

    The ES 6 measures the net pressure by means of a 4-20 mA pressure transmitter (P), connected to the I/O 2module in the ES 6 cubicle. The ES 6 controls the compressors in the network in order to keep the pressurewithin the limits of the programmed pressure band.

    As an alternative or as backup, another pressure sensor (0-5 V transducer) can be used.This other or extra sensor must be connected to the I/O2 module.

    Two pressure bands are available. A switch-over between the pressure bands can be performed in differentways (week timer based, controlled by a switch, via the display menu or via CAN communication).

    Instruction book

    2920 7094 70 11

  • 2.3 Equal wear sequence modeDescription

    In this operation mode, the ES 6 controls the connected compressors in function of the outcome of followingchecks: Position of the measured pressure versus the selected pressure band Priority check Compressor availability check Equal wear check

    Priority checkTwo priority schemes are available. In each priority scheme, six priority levels can be set. The lower thenumber of the priority level, the higher the priority: machines of level 1 will be started first, those of level 6will be started last.Each compressor can be given a different priority.Compressors with the same priority level will have the same priority. Within a group of compressors with thesame priority, the VSD compressor (if available) will be the top load machine. The VSD compressor will bestarted first and stopped last within the priority group.The highest placed variable speed driven compressor will be the control VSD compressor.If more than one VSD compressor is put in this priority level, the one with the least number of running hourswill be the control (top load) VSD. The other one(s) will be controlled as a fixed speed compressor, meaningthat it (they) will run at its (their) maximum motor speed, when started.The controller allows two different ways of switching between the priority schemes: Manual shift: a new scheme is selected manually. Time based shift: the scheme shifts automatically according to a programmed list (e.g. Monday 07:00 h

    priority scheme 1, Tuesday 08:00 h priority scheme 2, etc.).

    Availability checkBefore a compressor in a group is started, an availability check is performed. This means that only thecompressors that are running in unloaded condition or are ready to be started will be taken into account.A compressor is unavailable if: The minimum stop time is not yet expired The compressor is shut down Its emergency stop button is pressed There is no communication with the ES 6

    Equal wearWithin the group of compressors that have the same priority, the available compressor with the least runninghours will be started first, compressors with the most running hours will be stopped first.Exception: this is not applicable when the priority group contains the control VSD compressor. The otherVSD compressor(s) will run as fixed speed compressor(s).

    Instruction book

  • Temporary activation of a standby machineBy using the priority schemes, a standby machine can be activated for a certain time to keep the machine inoptimal condition.In the example below, the last machine (number 6) is set to standby (priority scheme 1). It is only activatedwhen all the other machines are already running. To keep the machine in optimal condition, the sequence canbe changed so that the standby compressor has the highest priority (priority scheme 2). This can be done bychanging the schemes manually or by means of a timer based switch.ExampleCompressornumber

    Priority scheme 1 Priority scheme 2

    2.4 Matching flow fluctuations with variable speed drivencompressor(s)

    DescriptionIf a variable speed driven compressor is installed, the latter is used to meet the changing demands of the airnet. When two compressors are running, the fixed speed compressor runs 100% loaded while the variablespeed driven compressor is used to fine tune the pressure.If a competitor VSD is connected, together with a number of fixed speed compressors, the competitor VSDneeds to be controlled via remote start/stop command (small pressure band). Its setpoint must be set belowthe Pressure Band Low setting of the ES 6.When there is more than one VSD compressor, the Atlas Copco VSD compressor will be the controlcompressor. The competitor VSD will run as a fixed speed compressor.

  • 3.2 Installation instructionsProcedure

    Fix the ES 6 to a wall (e.g. in the compressor room), taking into account the following maximum cablelengths: 250 m (820 ft) for a CAN network

    500 m (1640 ft) if a repeater is installed, 970 m (3180 ft) if two repeaters and one CAN bridge areinstalled.

    1000 m (3280 ft) between the pressure transmitter and the ES 6. The pressure transmitter should preferably be connected to an air receiver, in order to avoid pressure

    pulsations. Also vibrations should be avoided. It is also recommended to connect it via valves, allowingthe pressure transmitter to be replaced after isolating and depressurising it. The pressure transmitter mustbe installed in an upright position to avoid accumulation of condensate in the device.

    Isolate and depressurise the part of the air net to which the pressure transmitter will be connected. Provide a threaded hole (ISO R 1/4) in the depressurised part of the air net. Screw the pressure transmitter into place. Wire the pressure transmitter cable to the module of the central control system.

    Respect the pin numbers as indicated on the electrical diagram, which is delivered with the device.

  • 3.3 Connection methodsGeneral

    Reference Description(1) Communication(2) Connection channel 1 to 6

    For each compressor a connection channel is provided. For the ES 6, six connection channels can be selected,configured and used to connect compressors.

    Physical connection possibilitiesThere are three different ways to connect a compressor to the ES 6:1. CAN (LAN)

    The CAN (Controller Area Network) allows all the compressors and controllers in a network to beconnected to one another using a single 3 core cable, which is daisy-chained from one device to the next.The CAN network acts as a universal communication system which can be used for both control andmonitoring. This type of connection uses the LAN connection of the regulator.

    2. CANBox InterfaceFor fixed speed compressors which cannot be connected directly to a CAN network, the CANBox interfacecan be used. This DIN rail mounted box acts as an interface between traditional digital and analogue I/Oand the CAN network. One CANBox has to be provided per compressor.

    3. Hard-wiredThe ES 6 can also control any fixed speed compressor using a series of digital inputs and outputs. In thiscase the compressor will need to be hard-wired to the ES 6.

    Connecting Atlas Copco compressors equipped with Elektronikon MkIV or Mk5 regulatorsThe simplest way to connect these machines to the ES 6 is via the CAN network. A single machine can beconnected directly to the ES 6 or multiple machines can be linked together and then connected, as shownbelow:

    Instruction book

    16 2920 7094 70

  • Some older versions of the MkIV controller have limited control possibilities and do notallow proper control over the CAN network or simply have no LAN connection.In this case there are two options: Replace the controller by the current version (see details below). Connect the machine via hard-wiring. See section Hard-wired connections.

    Connecting Atlas Copco machines with Elektronikon MkIIIThis previous generation of the Elektronikon controller came in two variants, a low range and a highrange version. One of the key differences between these two variants were the communicationpossibilities. The details below explain the possibilities for each variant: Elektronikon MkIII Low Range controller (part number 1900 0700 0x)

    There are two connection possibilities for this controller: either a CANBox Interface can be used (partnumber 1900 0712 61), which means that the machine will use the CAN network to communicate withthe ES 6 or the machine can be hard-wired directly to the ES 6. In both cases some simple changes willbe necessary inside the electrical cubicle. More specifically two relays must be added, one to signal therunning status and the other to signal the load/unload status.

    Elektronikon MkIII High Range controller (part number 1900 0701 0x)If the high range version of the MkIII includes an extra module known as COM 1, the easiest way toconnect the machine to the ES 6 is to add a Combox-S interface (part number 8092 2482 54), whichconverts all communication to CAN. Alternatively the compressor can be hard-wired directly to the ES6.If the machine does not include a COM 1 module there are three possibilities: Use both a COM 1 (part number 8104 0115 00) and a Combox-S Use a CANBox interface (part number 1900 0712 61)

    Instruction book

    2920 7094 70 17

  • Hard-wire the machine directly to the ES 6

    Connecting Atlas Copco machines fitted with Elektronikon MkI or MkIIThe Combox-S is the easiest option to install and provides the most flexible and complete communicationmechanism. Therefore this is the recommended connection method for the ES 6.

    Instruction book

    18 2920 7094 70

  • Connecting Electo-pneumatic machines and non Atlas Copco machinesThere are two ways to connect these machines to the ES 6: Add a CANBox Interface (part number 1900 0712 61) to each machine and then use the CAN network hard-wire each machine directly to the ES 6

    Instruction book

    2920 7094 70 19

  • Connection of electro-pneumatic or non Atlas Copco machines

    Details on how to hard-wire machines to the ES 6 can be found in section Hard wiredconnections. A full explanation of how to install, configure and use a CANBox can be foundin the CANBox instruction book, which is provided with the CANBox hardware.

    3.4 CAN connectionsCAN addresses

    The ES 6 can be connected through a LAN (CAN technology). The connection point onthe ES 6 is labelled LAN.

    For connections that are connected over LAN, appropriate CAN addresses must be used.On each compressor, CANBox or Combox S, the correct CAN address must be set depending on the channel:Only the CAN addresses 1 up to 6 can be used.Channel CAN addressChannel 1 1Channel 2 2Channel 3 3... ...Channel 6 6

    CAN addressThe ES 6 requires a CAN address between 1 and 30. By default, the CAN address of theES 6 is 31.After the download the CAN address has to be changed manually. Principally everyavailable CAN address can be used, but the preferred CAN address is 30.

    See section Menu settings - Network settings to check or adapt this parameter.

    3.5 Hard-wired connectionsDescription

    Stop the compressors and switch off the power during the connecting process.

    On the ES 6, two digital inputs and two relay outputs are provided for each connection channel.Required inputs: Compressor status indication, compressor stopped/running Compressor status indication, compressor unloaded/loadedProvided outputs:

  • 5 Configuration and start-up

    5.1 System configurationSystem setup

    After all physical connections are made, a number of selections still has to be made in order to perform asystem setup. This can be done via the ES 6 display or via special software, available to the Aftermarketorganization.For setup via the display, most settings can be viewed/changed via the ES menu. Following steps have tobe followed:1. Master settings

    Activate the ES in the Master controller:

    Text on image(1) Master (2) ES must be On(3) Number of Compressors between 1 and 6(4) Pressure Band 1 High as required(5) Pressure Band 1 Low as required(6) Modify

    Enter the number of compressors connected to the ES 6. Enter the pressure band settings. Enter which is the pressure band in use. Digital Pressure Band Selection: when "On", it allows to switch Pressure band by means of a digital

    input.

    Text on image(1) Master (2) Scheme in Use Each participant has a priority. Two priority schemes

    are possible.(3) Digital Scheme Selection When active, digital selection between the schemes

    is possible.(4) Forced Time Setting used to decide to start a stopped compressor

    irrespective of the pressure algorithm.(5) Remote To Local Time Time between two remote to local requests.(6) Modify

    And

    Text on image(1) Start/Load Time Time between two start - load requests.(2) Unload Time Time between two unload requests.(3) Delta Time Setting used to decide to load an unloaded

    compressor or to start a stopped compressor.(4) Remote Start/Stop If selection is On, the regulation can start and stop

    with a digital input.

  • And also:

    Text on image(1) Central Stop Central stop allowed when parameter is On.(2) Local Local allowed when parameter is on(3) System Forced Function When On, allows to force a compressor start to

    prevent a certain compressor in the system wouldremain inactive during a long time.

    (4) Automatic Restart Auto Restart After Voltage Failure When 'Does not Exist', ARAVF is not

    present (cannot be activated in thisscreen).

    When 'Exist but not active', ARAVF ispresent but not yet active. Can beactivated on the display.

    When 'Exist and is active': ARAVF ispresent and Active. Can be de-activatedon the display.

    When 'Exist and is active infinite': ARAVFis present, active and a restart will alwaysbe executed independent of Power Offtime.

    See section Menu settings.

  • (1) Maximum Power Down Time Auto restart is possible if the power down time is lessthen this parameter.

    (2) Sequence Method Manual sequence: selection of the slaves dependingon:

    Group Sequence Priority scheme check Running hours check

    Each slave of a group starts at the same time.Equal Wear: selection of the slaves depending on:

    Priority scheme check Running hours check Each slave will be started one by one.

    (3) Operation Mode Possibility to control the regulation:Possible values:

    Local Remote LAN

    (4) Group Sequence Contains the groups which have to start for thissequence.

    2. Slave settingsFor each slave, following settings are to be checked:

    Text on image(1) Scheme 1 Priority Two priority schemes are present. In each Priority

    scheme a Priority Level can be set per compressor.The lower the priority level the higher the priority.Compressors with the same Priority Level will havethe same Priority.By default all priorities in both schemes are set to 1.Since two Priority schemes are available, a switchover from one to the other Priority Scheme is possible(by Digital Input, Week Timer or via Display Menu) .

    (2) Scheme 2 Priority

    (3) Start/Load Reaction Time Maximum time for the compressor to reply to a Start/Load command.

    (4) Load Reaction Time Maximum time for the compressor to reply to a Loadcommand.

    Instruction book

    72 2920 7094 70

  • Text on image(1) Unload Reaction Time Maximum Time for the compressor to reply to an

    Unload command.(2) Stop Reaction Time Maximum Time for the compressor to reply to a Stop

    command.(3) VSD Maximum Starts per Day The second up to sixth VSD compressor will be seen

    as a Fixed Speed compressor running at optimal/maximum speed. Since these VSD's are seen asfixed speed compressors, a 'Number of starts perday' is required for the regulation.

    (4) VSD Maximum RPM Factor Percentage of Control VSD Speed: required for thedecision to start/load/unload and stop fixed speedand maximum speed VSD's.

    Text on image(1) VSD Minimum RPM Factor Percentage of Control VSD Speed: required for the

    decision to start/load/unload and stop fixed speedand maximum speed VSD's.

    (2) VSD Zero RPM Band Factor Percentage multiplied with the 'Minimum Speed' todecide that the Control VSD can be considered asstopped.

    (3) Running Hours Running hours are the hours of the selected slavecompressor

    (4) Mode A user can change to integrate a compressor in theES or isolate a compressor.

  • Text on image(1) VSD Zero RPM Band Factor See previous image(2) Running Hours See previous image(3) Mode See previous image(4) Manual Sequence group Each slave must be put in a group. These groups we

    need to define a manual sequence.

    5.2 Start-upPreparations for initial start-up

    Stick labels near the control panels of the compressors connected to the ES 6 as well as on an obviousplace inside these compressors, warning the operator that the compressor is remotely started and stoppedby a remote controller. These labels must also warn the operator that, after voltage failure, the controllercan remotely start and stop the compressors, depending on the air demand and programmed values.

    Connect the power supply cables of the ES 6 controller to an appropriate single-phase voltage. Switch on the voltage.The ES 6 is now ready for use.
