2004/06/28 Pump Regulation (RCNR3814) ‘smes - 1931 iozt48973, Constant Control of Horsepower ‘Constant control ofthe horsepower is associated with the 1 to 9 setting of the engine ‘speed dial. The flow ofthe pump is contfled by the power Shift pressure when the ‘engine speed dials in the 1 through 9 position, The hydraulic output willbe set according to the position ofthe engine speéd dial. Even though the pump is delivering the maximum, flow, the controller will correct the power shift pressure‘n order to maintain the maximum amount of flow. During the delivery of mide pressure and high pressure, the horsepower ‘of the main pump is controlled in order to prevent high horsepower ofthe pump with lower engine horsepower, The conivoler fecelves feedback from the engine speed ‘sensor. The power shift pressure is proportional ta the target flow. The target flow is calculated from the setting ofthe engine speed and the pressure of the delivery pump pressure sensor. Thus, the pawer shift pressure will vary according tothe position of the ‘engine speed dial and the pressure of the delivery pump. The antistall feature for the engine is used in order to prevent he engine from staling. "The antistal feature will be activated, ifthe speed ofthe engine decreases 260 rpm below the position ofthe dial in ‘comparison to the setting ofthe engine speed lal ‘The power shift pressure is fixed for the positions of 1 through ®. The positions of { through 4 of the engine speed dial have a different power shit pressure for each setting ‘The engine speed cial will set the desired RPM, which Will produce the desired flows. The positions of 5 through 9 of the engine speed dial have a common paler shit pressure ‘that is fixed. The positions 1 through 9 use engine speed, the position ofthe engine ‘speed dial, and the pump pressure to set a fixed output. The output is fixed unt a decrease of 250 RPM below the target RPM. Ata RPM of 250 below the target RPM, the engine controler will adjust the power shift pressure in order to maintain engine RPM within 250 RPM of the target RPM. Control Of An Underspeed Condition ‘The underspeed condition is associated with a position of 10 of the engine speed dial ‘The 10 position of the engine speed cialis used when a large amount of horsepower is required or a high ravel speed is requested. In this case, itis necessary to utilize the Underspeed feature when the engine is being operated at a maximum horsepower. The Underspeed feature wil maintain the speed of the engine at approximately maximum power. The controller reads the engine speed and the controller will adjust the power shift Pressure in order to regulate the engine speed. The controller controls the power shift pressure in the underspeed condition. The engine maintains a speed of approximately 41950 rpm for the 312C, 2150 rpm for the 315C and 318C, and 1800 rpm for the 319C, 3200, 321C, 3220, 325C, and 330C in order to achieve the maximum horsepower ‘Therefore, when the engine speed is higher than the ful load speed, the output of the pump wil increase and the power shift pressure will decrease. Also, when the engine ‘speed is lower than the target speed, the output of the pump will decrease and the power shift pressure wil increase ‘The horsepower ofthe engine may decrease under the follwing conditions: + The engine becomes worn, + The quality ofthe fue is por + The engine is operating ta high alitide. ‘The controler will decrease the output of he pump and the controller wil increase the Power shit pressure in order to reduce the load cn the engine withoUtreducing the ‘engine speed. This condition occurs’ he speed of the ehgine decreases below full load speed ion ea sr=MCABinfoType=4&serviceMediaNumber=RCNR38 14&serviceleSystemControlNumber=i01294548-03:16:36+08:00 or294548, (© 2021 Caterpillar Inc.
