5.3 Comments on wiring

OUT1
This is the main output, it can be configured as 0~20mA or 4~20mA output(See parameters: 0P 1).

Note:
If the model code is CPC316-V10, OUT1 will output a 0~10V DC signal, and there is a 500Ω resistor
connected in parallel with OUT1 inside the controller. If you want to use current output signal, you must
remove this resistor, and vice versa. See the following figure.

Input signal
The range of the input signal is -10~50mV. Voltage signal which exceed this range must be attenuated with
an appropriately sized input adapter. Current signals are converted to the -10 to 50mV range with a shunt
input adapter.

e.g., suppose the output signal of the two-wire pressure transducer is 4~20mA, now connect a 2.5 Ohm
resistor in parallel with the input terminals.(18, 19). Due to the Ohm’s law, this converts the input signal to
10~50mV.

SP2 Switch / Fire Switch

When the switch SP2 is on, the alteration of the value of SP2 is enabled, just press the UP and DOWN key
to alter the setting value. The value will be stored automatically.

When the switch SP2 is off, the alteration of the value of SP is enabled.

Stop Switch

When the STOP switch is on, the all outputs will be turned off.

First turn OUT1 off, then the Var. Freq. Pump relay, last the Power Freq. Pump relays(First Start First Stop),
the interval between two power freq. pumps is 2 seconds.

B1, B2, B3 / G1, G2, G3

B1, B2 and B3 are relays for switching ON/OFF the contacts for the Var. Freq. Pumps while G1, G2 and G3
are relays for switching ON/OFF the contacts for the Power Freq. Pumps. The common wiring terminal is
COM.

The variable frequency pumps control relays are interlocked, at any time, only one var. freq. pump contactor
will be switch on.

For the same motor, the var. freq. contactor and the power freq. contactor are also interlocked, i.e. either the
var. freq. contactor is on or the power freq. contactor is on for the same motor.

Alarm - AL1
The alarm relay’s contact rating is 3A/250VAC, Normally Open.

7 Operation

7.1 Setpoint adjusting

During the basic functioning, press keys ∧ or ∨ to increase or decrease setpoint. Keeping it pressed results
in a progressively faster variation. Setpoint adjustable range is SP L to SP K.

7.2 Automatic and Manual Mode

When the “Automatic/Manual selection” function is enabled (A K = KAND), press the A/M key, the automatic
operation mode and manual operation mode can be changed conveniently.

When the controller performs manual operation, the indicator ‘MAN’ will be lit, if output power is displaying on
the lower display(LED ‘%’ is lit) the control output can be altered by pressing ∧ and ∨ key.

7.3 Parameters accessing

The parameters of the controller is structured on two access levels: Operator Level and Configuration
Level.

Operator Level:
This level is intended for normal, everyday operation of the controller at the plant.

Configuration Level:
With the configuration parameter list, the controller can be programed for running in the specific application.

7.3.1 Operator parameters

With the controller works in the PV/SV indication status, press PAR key and hold for 3 seconds, this will
reveals the first operation parameter. The parameter value can either be modified with the ∧ or ∨ key, or
left unmodified. Press PAR again, the next parameter and its current value appears, set the value with the
same method.

If the last parameter has been reached or there is no key operation within 16 seconds, the menu times out
automatically.

8 Parameters description
8.1 Pressure measurements
Pressure
The measurement of pressure is affected by parameters SN,
DOT, 0FST, K,L, LOL and F,L. These parameter must be set
properly according to the specify condition, otherwise the K ,L
indication of the measured pressure will be incorrect.

The input must be between -10~50mV, voltage signal which

exceed this range must be attenuated with an appropriately
sized input adapter. Current signals are converted to the -
10 to 50mV range with a shunt input adapter. 0 10 20 30 40 50
LO L Input (mV)

(1). When using the “Resistance Transmission Pressure Gauge” as the pressure sensor, the input signal
parameter SN must be set to PRE, set K,L to the full scale value of the sensor, set LOL to 0.

(2). When using the other pressure sensors, the input signal parameter SN must be set to L,N(linear signal).
Set K,L, make it corresponds to the pressure value represented by 50mV (the full scale).
Set LOL, make it corresponds to the pressure value represented by 0mV.

(3). Set proper value for “Input filter coefficient” (code F,L), the greater value, the more stable display but
slower response.

Example 1: Resistance Transmission Pressure Gauge Input

Suppose use the “Resistance Transmission Pressure Gauge” as the pressure sensor, the measurement
range is 16.0kg.

The settings: SN = PRE, K,L = 16.0, LOL = 0

Example 2: 0~20mA Input

Suppose use the two-wire pressure transducer as the
pressure sensor, the output signal of the transducer is 4
to 20mA and the measurement range is 10.0kg. 0~20mA
2.5 Ω Input
A 2.5 Ohm resistor must be connected with the input
terminals in parallel, due to the Ohm’s Law, this convert
4~20mA to the range of 10~50mV.

The settings: SN = L,N, K,L = 10.0 (display value for Current Input Adapter
50mV), LOL = -2.5 (display value for 0mV)

Example 3: 0-10V Input

Suppose use the pressure transmitter with 0~10V
signal, the measurement range is 10.0kg.
200k
0~10V
A 200K/1K voltage divider can adapt the input signal to Input
the range of 0~50mV. (see the right figure)

8.2 Pumps action mode

8.2.1 Single pump control (FVNC = FP0)

This mode is suitable for water systems with only one pump, the pump is soft-start/stop controlled.

8.2.2 Three looped pumps control (FVNC = FP3)

This mode is suitable for water systems which using 3 standard pumps and a small auxiliary pump.

The three standard pump are soft-start controlled and the auxiliary pump works in power frequency mode.

B1, B2 and B3 are defined as var. freq. contator control relays.

G1, G2 and G3 are defined as power freq. contactor control relays.
OUT2 is for auxiliary pump.

See Application Note 1 and 2 for wiring and details.

8.2.3 Four looped pumps control (FVNC = FP4)

This mode is suitable for water systems which using 4 standard pumps, the four standard pumps are soft-
start controlled.

B1, B2, B3 and OUT2 are defined as var. freq. contator control relays.
G1, G2, G3 and AL1 are defined as power freq. contactor control relays.

See Application Note 3 for wiring and details.

8.2.4 Direct start/stop (FVNC = FP6)

This mode is suitable for water systems which using 1 variable frequency pump and 6 power frequency
pumps.

The connection of the var. freq. pump is fixed. The 6 power freq. pumps are controlled by B1, B2, B3, G1, G2
and G3 respectively.

If the measured pressure PV is less than the setting pressure SV and the adding pump condition is met, B1,
B2, B3, G1, G2, and G3 will be switched on to start the corresponding pump in sequence, and the six pumps
works in power frequency mode.

If the measured pressure PV is greater than the setting value SV, the power frequency pumps will be
stopped with order of First Start Last Stop.

See Application Note 4 for wiring and details.

9 Adding/Stopping pumps

9.1 Adding pump procedure

When the inverter is running, if the measured pressure PV is less than the setting pressure SV, the output of
the PI algorithm will be increased and reach the highest frequency K PL.

If SV-PV > DB, and the max output K PL was kept and lasts for TK, the adding pump event will be triggered.
DB: Allowable pressure oscillation during the adding or stopping of pumps
TK: Max output (highest freq.) duration

In the adding pump procedure, the following table lists the output and the action sequence of the relays.

9.2 Stopping pump procedure

When the inverter is running, if the measured pressure PV is greater than the setting pressure SV, the output
of the PI algorithm will be decreased and reach the lowest frequency L PL.

If PV-SV > DB, and the min output L PL was kept and lasts for TL, the stopping pump event will be triggered.
DB: Allowable pressure oscillation during the adding or stopping of pumps
TL: Min output (lowest freq.) duration

In the stopping pump procedure, the following table lists the output and the action sequence of the relays.

Function Main output (to inverter) Action of Relays

9.3 Sleep mode and the auxiliary pump

9.3.1 Enter sleep mode

Entering sleep mode and employing auxiliary pump in the water system is useful when the duty is low (such
as in the night), this can prevents the main pump from starting and stopping frequently.

While there is only one var. freq. pump is running and if the measure pressure PV is greater than setting
pressure SV, the output of the PI algorithm will be decreased and reach the “enter sleep threshold” SLEP. If
PV > SV + DB, and the output keeps SLEP and lasts for “enter sleep duration” TB, the water system will enter
sleep mode, the main output will be turned off.(OUT1 outputs 0)

If 0P2 = 0FF, after the system enters sleep mode, the all pumps will be switched off.
If 0P2 = PFG, after the system enters sleep mode, the var. freq. pump will be switched off, the auxiliary pump
will be switched on and runs in power frequency mode.
If 0P2 = PFB, after the system enters sleep mode, the var. freq. pump will be switched off, the auxiliary pump
will be switched on and runs in var. frequency mode.

9.3.2 Exit sleep mode

When the system works in sleep mode, if the measured pressure PV is less than LOP and lasts form TA, the
water system will exit sleep mode and the main var. freq. pump will be restarted.

DB: Allowable pressure oscillation during the adding or stopping of pumps

SLEP: Enter sleep threshold
TB: Enter sleep duration
LOP: Exit sleep threshold
TA: Exit sleep duration

10 Time-Pressure program
10.1 Overview
When the Real Time Clock (RTC) function is available, a Time-Pressure program(pattern) can be set up to
implement the Time-Pressure pattern control.

In this program, a day was divided into 8 duration, with the real time clock and the pre-set pattern, the
controller adjust the setting pressure and perform the closed-loop control to the pressure continuously, the
time starts from 00:00 and ends at 24:00.
