4.1.1 Throughput control

The throughput control (FCM) covers only the basic function of the roller feeders.
The feed roller, feed gap or feed screw conveyor are adjusted by means of the mea-
sured motor current in order to regulate the power of the hammer mill. The grinding
chamber temperature and machine vibrations can be recorded. Motors cannot be
switched on or off.

4.1.2 Vertical hammer mill
4.1.2.1 Start
The vertical hammer mill is controlled by two 24 V signals. Depending on the operat-
ing hours, the corresponding direction of rotation of the main motor is determined at
the start. This adjustment enables the hammers and sieves to wear evenly.
With two hammer mills, the second main motor first starts after the delay ”TCON.T6“
See page 98. A current transformer measures the present motor output. The ”Motor
is turning“ signal thereby occurs. If there is no current, an error message is displayed
and the mill stops.

Description
When the time ”TCON.T6“ has elapsed, the air-circulating fan starts on the roller
feeder. ”TCON.T6“ See page 98. The motor contactor of the fan sends an acknowl-
edgement signal to the control system ”DFCQ V“ as confirmation that the fan is run-
ning. If there is no signal, an error message is output and the dosing unit does not
start.
4.1.2.2 Stop
Do not operate the hammer mill for more than 15 minutes without any product since
the air circulation can cause overheating. The hammer mill is stopped by deactivation
of the 24 V start command. The air-circulating fan switches off first, followed by the
main motor. With two hammer mills (DFZK 2), both main motors switch off at short in-
tervals.
If the hammer mill runs without any product (no load), the hammer mill switches off
automatically after the time ”TCON.T3“ has elapsed. ”TCON.T3“ See page 97.
The following conditions are fulfilled that after an automatic stop, the hammer mill
restarts:
– The dosing release is pending.
– The level probe of the intermediate container reports presence of product.
If the hammer mill is stopped during the dosing process, the clearance time
”TCON.T1“ expires first. ”TCON.T1“ See page 97. This ensures that no product is
left behind in the grinding chamber and the hammer mill can restart automatically. If
product is left behind in the grinding chamber, the main motor cannot start. The
product must be removed manually.
4.1.2.3 Reduce the overrun time

The overrun time of hammer mill is 10 … 15 minutes until it comes to a standstill. This
time can be reduced, for example, for sieve change. The motor can be slowed down
with the ”Activate brake“ signal. As a result, the motor is controlled for the time
”TCON.T2.x“ with reversed direction of rotation. ”TCON.T1“ See page 97. The mo-
tor is thereby slowed down and the overrun time minimized to approx. 1 minute.
4.1.3 Feeding
4.1.3.1 Dosing release

When all motors are turning, the control system requires a second 24 V signal for
dosing release. This signal releases the roller feeder.
The following conditions are met for a release:
– Air-circulating fan motor is running.
– Motor of the discharge conveyor is running.
– Level probe of the discharge conveyor is not covered.
– Level probe in the intermediate container is covered.

Description
4.1.3.2 Starting
Thus, the dosing starts when the following conditions are met:
– The dosing release is pending.
– The level probe of the intermediate container reports presence of product.
– The blockage probe in the roller feeder is not covered.
The main motor is regulated by a setpoint, this is given in percent. The setpoint corre-
sponds to 100 % of the rated power of the main motor.
The control system regulates the optimum utilization of the main motor by means of
the segment slide gate gap and the speed of the feed roller. If two hammer mills
(DFZK 2) are present, the two segment slide gate settings are corrected until the
power consumption of both hammer mills is distributed evenly.
4.1.3.3 Stop
The following conditions must be met for dosing to stop:
– The dosing release is no longer present.
– The level probe of the intermediate container is not covered.
– The product discharge is no longer ensured.
The control system remains in this state until all conditions have been met for a
restart.
4.1.4 Heavy particle flap

When the dosing is not active, the heavy particle flap can be opened. The dosing
cannot be started while opening and closing the heavy particle flap. When opening
the heavy particle flap, the linear cylinder retracts. When closing the heavy particle
flap, the linear cylinder extends. See page 59, Chapter ”Operate keys and lamps“.
4.1.5 Outlet cone

The outlet cone can be opened or closed when the rotor is not moving. The two lin-
ear cylinders do not travel at exactly the same speed for production-related reasons.
Therefore, the position of both cylinders is measured by means of a pulse counter. If
the position difference of both cylinders is too great, the position is adjusted by slow-
ing down the faster cylinder momentarily. See page 59, Chapter ”Operate keys and
lamps“.
4.1.6 Discharge conveyor

When the main motor is running, the ”Start discharge“ signal is displayed. The dis-
charge conveyor must acknowledge that it is running by means of a response. If the
discharge conveyor does not return this message within 10 s, the main motor stops.
If there is no response from the discharge conveyor, the response signal must be
routed to the start signal. After the main motor has stopped, the ”Start discharge“
signal first switches off after an overrun time of 60 s. Additionally, capacity monitoring
of the discharge conveyor can be activated with the parameter ”TCON.TRANS“ See
page 94. ”TCON.TRANS“ See page 94.

Chapter 4
Description
4.1.7 Gravity flow diverter (option)

The gravity flow diverter is used for selecting the hammer mill when two hammer mills
are present. It is activated with the dosing release. When the dosing release is
present for both hammer mills, the middle position is approached. The position is pre-
set with the parameter ”TCON.FLMID“ See page 92. ”TCON.FLMID“ See page 92.
In this position the product is conveyed to both hammer mills. If the dosing release is
only enabled for one hammer mill, the gravity flow diverter automatically changes po-
sition and directs the product only to the active hammer mill.
If the parameter ”TCON.FLAP“ is set to OFF, then the gravity flow diverter is not ad-
justed automatically and remains in the current position. ”TCON.FLAP“ See
page 92.
4.1.8 Temperature monitoring (option)

There is a thermal detector in the grinding chamber. If the measured temperature ex-
ceeds the limit value ”TCON.TMAX“, an alarm is triggered and the hammer mill is
switched off. ”TCON.TMAX“ See page 96. If there are two hammer mills (DFZK 2),
each grinding chamber is monitored by its own sensor.
4.1.9 Vibration monitoring (option)

There is a vibration sensor on the machine stand. This measures the vibrations within
the range of 0 … 64 mm/s. Two vibration limits can be set with the parameters
”TCON.VIB_W“ and ”TCON.VIB_A“ See page 96. ”TCON.VIB_W“ See page 96.
”TCON.VIB_A“ See page 96. If the value ”TCON.VIB_W“ is exceeded for the pro-
grammable time ”TCON.T VIB“, a warning is displayed. ”TCON.VIB_W“ See
page 96. ”TCON.T VIB“ See page 96. The machine only stops when the value
”TCON.VIB_A“ is exceeded for the time ”TCON.T VIB“ See page 96. The present vi-
bration value is displayed on the control system as a percent of the programmed limit,
i.e. 100 % corresponds to ”TCON.VIB_A“ See page 96.
4.1.10 Magnetic door and back-up probe

The following mechanisms are triggered in the roller feeder:
– If the magnetic door is opened, an alarm message appears on the display.
– If the back-up probe is covered, the feeder deactivates.
4.1.11 Profibus interface

The control has a Profibus interface to the process control system.
The following process data, among other things, can be displayed on the process
control system:
– Current motor output
– Current segment gate position
– Current speed of the feed roller
– State of all inputs and outputs
– Current alarm messages

The parameters of the CTRL parameter group determine the controller characteris-
tics. The devices have basic settings which are sufficient for operation. Optimizations
become necessary if the controller is not working perfectly due to various influences
such as pressure differences, throughput deviations, design value of the machine, air-
flow conduction, etc. Two procedures are available for the optimizations. The proce-
dures differ greatly from one another.
– Optimization according to Ziegler Nichols: If the system to be controlled is not

known, this procedure must be used. Control parameters are adapted according
to the Ziegler Nichols method.
– Empirical optimization: If basic parameters are available, this optimization is ap-
plied. Control parameters are adapted on the basis of observations.
The integrated control algorithm is based on the generally valid controller characteris-
tics. Various controllers can be implemented. We recommend not modifying the con-
troller type because not every controller type can be adapted for each controlled sys-
tem.
7.7.2 Ziegler Nichols optimization

This form of optimization can be used with all systems. The difference is whether it is
a controlled system with or without balancing.
– Controlled system with balancing: If the system assumes a stationary status af-
ter modifying the control variable and after a particular time, then this is a system
with balancing.
Example: A valve for steam is opened to a fixed value (e.g. 50 %). The product is
heated and the temperature rises. After a certain time, a balance is reached. The
product remains at a stable temperature.
– Controlled system without balancing: A controlled system without balancing
behaves differently. A stationary state does not occur.
Example: a water tank is filled with water. If a fixed metering amount is set, the fill-
ing level in the water tank rises until the tank overflows.
Use the Ziegler Nichols procedure to optimize the system. The temporal course of the
actual amount is recorded after modifying the control variable. This is known as the
step response. The control parameters are determined on the basis of this response.
7.7.3 Determining control parameters for controlled system with balancing

Constant operating conditions are needed. Set the machine's surroundings accord-
ing to the process conditions.
Example: pressure reduction valves are set correctly, ventilation and product amounts
correspond to normal operation.
7.7.3.1 Recording the step response

1. Create a step in the control signal. E.g. open a valve for steam from 0 to 50 % or
from 20 to 40 %. Then keep this signal constant.

2. The course of the measurand is recorded. Wait until a stationary status levels off
in a controlled system with balancing or a constant rise is achieved in systems
without balancing.
3. The tangents are drawn in and the factors calculated depending on the controller
type. The times ”Tu“ and ”Tg“ are ruling for calculating the factors.

7.7.5 Empirical optimization

If the process does not allow, or if the control parameters are known, then optimize
empirically. To do this, note the system variables and adjust if necessary.

– The system is oscillating.
– Control corrections are undertaken only very slowly.

The system is oscillating

The controller is working too fast. In this case, decrease the ”CTRL.KR “ parameter. It
is beneficial to reduce this value by half in each case.
If the KR value has been decreased several times, it also makes sense to increase the

duced in each case by half. Do not adjust the values too much, however. Otherwise

7.10 Controlling the main motor with frequency converter

When using a frequency converter, the hammer mill utilization can be transferred to
DFCQ by the frequency converter. For this purpose, the frequency converter must
have 0 … 20 mA or 4 … 20 mA output for the motor torque. This schematic can also
be used for a double hammer mill.
The actual value output of the frequency converter must show the following charac-
teristics:
– 20 mA = 150 % motor torque (depending on the size of the frequency converter).
This is needed so that the control system can also measure and evaluate an over-
load.
– If 20 mA = 100 % motor torque, then capacity control is not possible because an
overload cannot be detected.

7.11.1.3 Load control by air volume measurement with dynamic pressure sensor (control
fan motor with DOL starting, soft starter or frequency converter)
A dynamic pressure probe is used for the air volume measurement, which records
the difference between a static and dynamic pressure and is displayed in Pa (Pascal)
[N/m2] by means of a differential pressure transmitter. The square rooted 4 … 20 mA
- output signal is forwarded to the control system. This means that the output signal
in mA is proportional to the root of the dynamic pressure and with that approximately
proportional to the air velocity, i. e. .

φ is a device-specific factor and also considers the air density, which can however
vary depending on the static pressure and temperature. However, the previous pa-
rameters are neglected for this application. φ is calculated according to the specifica-
tions of the manufacturer and is in the area of approx. 1.06 for Debimo measuring
rods.
The sensor shows a differential pressure, i.e. the difference between dynamic pres-
sures in Pa (Pascal) [N/m2]. This means that if a differential pressure of 600 Pa is dis-
played, then this corresponds to a numerical value of 24.49 m/s. Assume φ is 1.06,
Bühler Group
AHZC-23401-1-2302-en-US
Chapter 7
Configuration
then the air velocity is 1.06 × 24.49 = 25.96 m/s. If φ is not known, or for checking
purposes, the air velocity can be measured with an anemometer and calculated with
the differential pressure .

To be able to calculate the air volume in m3/min, the air velocity is required in m/s and
the pipe cross section in m2.
Air volume [m3/min] = air velocity [m/s] × 60 s/min × pipe cross section [m2]
Note: In case of the air volume measurement, the current values displayed in am-
peres in the DFCQ correspond with the air volume in m3/min.
Set the following parameter in DFCQ:
1. Determine the maximum measurable air volume in m3/min in case of 20 mA out-

put signal of the sensor ”ADC.CON 1.2“.
u Start the fan with a maximum speed.
u For the inlet of the measuring channel, calculate the average air velocity in m/
s, according to the specifications of the probe manufacturer or measure it
with an anemometer (for example, 16 m/s).
u By means of the measured air velocity and pipe cross section (for example,
0.052 m2), the air volume is to be calculated (for example, 16 m/s × 60 s/min
× 0.052 m2 = 50 m3/min).
u Read the dynamic pressure on the sensor display (for example, 180 Pa) and
bring it in relation to the maximum measuring range of the sensor (for exam-
ple, 600 Pa). Take the square root of the result. (for example, 100 % × root
(180 Pa/600 Pa) = 54.77 %). Therefore, the air volume of 50 m3/min corre-
sponds to 54.77% of the maximum measurable air volume.
u Calculate the maximum measurable air volume in case of an output signal of
20 mA (50 m3/min ÷ 54.77 % × 100 % = 91.3 m3/min).
u Enter the value 91.3 for ”ADC.CON 1.2“.
2. Read the air volume of the fan motor in case of a ”Minimum load“ (i.e. maximum
air volume, no product in sieve or in the pneumatic suction conveying system, the
air flows freely) in parameter ”ADC.I 1.2“ (current value is displayed). This takes
place in case of a maximum air volume and without product. Round up this read
air volume by 5 % and enter with a negative sign (–) for ”ADC.MOT 1.2“.
u Example: Enter display 100 A → ”ADC.MOT 1.2“ = –105 A (105 % of 100 A).

volume, i.e. sieve or pneumatic suction conveying system is about to clog) in pa-

8.2.2 MAN (manual operation) parameter group

The device makes possible manual operation of individual machine components. This
is especially helpful during machine commissioning or when troubleshooting. To start
an element manually, it must first be changed from automatic mode (AUT) to manual
(MAN). This decouples the element from automatic sequence control and it can now
be controlled via the corresponding parameter.
The following parameters of the MAN parameter group can be controlled manually:
– MAN.FROLL
– MAN.FSLD
– MAN.FSLD2
– MAN.FAN
– MAN.TRAN

”Setpoint frequencies of the main motors“.
TCON.MOT_F2.x Setpoint frequency 2 of main motor x
Step: L Unit: Hz

Setpoint frequencies TCON.MOT_F1 and TCON.MOT_F2. See page 98, Chapter
”Setpoint frequencies of the main motors“.
TCON.MODE Operating mode of the control
Step: L Default value: REG
Value Function
REG Regulates to a setpoint. The feed gap and the speed of the feed roller are changed.
This will enable the largest dosing range to be covered. An attempt is made to op-
erate the feed roller in the optimal speed range TCON.FMIN and TCON.FMAX. The
speed is monitored every 5 s and if necessary, the feed gap is adjusted to bring the
speed back within the optimal range.
FREQ Regulates to a setpoint. The feed gap remains at TCON.SMAX. It is not modified.
The dosing quantity is only influenced by the feed roller (0 … 100 Hz). This limits the
dosing range but can also be helpful for special applications. Modifications cannot
be reacted to very quickly in this mode, as the influence of the feed roller is less
than the influence of the roller gap adjuster.
SLIDE Regulates to a setpoint. The feed roller speed remains at TCON.FMIN. It is not
modified. The dosing quantity is only influenced by the feed gap
(TCON.SMIN … TCON.SMAX). The smallest change in the feed gap is determined
by the mechanics. This mode is not recommended for products which require in-
tensive grinding.
CONST Overload is regulated. If the actual mill load is less than the set point, no control will
occur. Therefore, the control will not be activated until the mill load has exceeded
the set point. The controller is deactivated again when the load falls below the set
point again and the standard settings have been reached again. The standard val-
ues for the feed roller and the feed gap are predefined with TCON.FMAX and
TCON.SMAX.

inputs (DI 0.4 and DI 0.16). In the case of fieldbus connection, the gravity flow di-
verter is changed over via control bits 1.2 and 2.2. The flap changes the position
when one or both hammer mills are released. If no hammer mill is released, the flap
remains in its current position and is adjusted when a modification is made.
TCON.FLMID Gravity flow diverter middle position
Step: L Unit: %
Is only displayed if TCON.MILL = 2 and TCON.DFCQ = DFZK and TCON.FLAP =

Alarms and messages
9 Alarms and messages

Alarms and messages have the following syntax: The letter A for alarm or W for warn-
ing followed by a three-digit number.
Example: A073.
If a number follows the alarm or warning, it is a device-specific warning. The number
then indicates the device number.
Example: A073.2
If no further details are provided about the acknowledgement, then acknowledgement
of the alarms is dependent on the ”SYS.ACLR“ parameter.
– ”SYS.ACLR“ = OFF: Automatic acknowledgement if the cause of the alarm has
been remedied or when a change has been made to Step 1.
– ”SYS.ACLR“ = ON: No automatic acknowledgement. Acknowledgement possible
only with <Clear alarm> key or 24 V input ”Delete alarm“.

10 Spare parts lists

10.1 Spare parts management
Stocks of spare parts and parts subject to wear are an important requirement for the
permanent operational readiness of the control system.
Bühler spare parts often fulfil special manufacturing and delivery specifications. Bühler
sells spare parts in accordance with state-of-the-art technology.
Only spare parts supplied by Bühler are checked and approved. Spare parts from
other sources might negatively change the prescribed constructional qualities of the
control system and/or impair safety.

11.1.3 LED display

Each CAN expansion module contains a one-digit LED display; EBD 1320 has two-
digit display. It reflects the hardware status.
A flashing decimal point indicates that the module is in operation.
A number from 1 ... 9 indicates the address; for EBD 1320 1 ... 31. If several CAN ex-
pansion modules of the same type are present, different addresses must be set in ac-
cordance with the I/O description of the application.
The address is set as follows:
u Keep the key pressed down until the address flashes.

u Continue pressing the key as often as required until the respective address is dis-
played.
u Keep the key pressed down until the address no longer flashes.
If an ”E“ flashes alternately with another symbol, an error message is pending. If, for
example, ”E“ and ”3“ flash alternately, the fault ”E 3“ is pending.
