BEKA-troniX1
The BEKA-troniX1 is an integrated control unit.
You can set the cycle time to be time-dependent.
You can set the lubrication duration to be either time-dependent or revolution-dependent.
With the BEKA-troniX1 you can evaluate:
- Level monitoring
- System pressure monitoring
NOTICE
You need the control unit version with plug-type connections M12x1 for evaluation.
The BEKA-troniX1 emits signals via a red and a green LED in the inspection window of the housing. Refer to Signal indicators BEKA-troniX1 for the different signals.
Operational database
The BEKA-troniX1 features an operational database in which the following values are stored:
- Data on the control unit, such as type, version, serial number and production date
- Real-Time-Clock (RTC), date and time, adjustable time zones
- Current settings, such as cycle time, operational mode for lubrication duration, lubrication duration and monitoring times
- Statistical values, including operation hours, number of intermediate lubrications, number of different errors and diagnoses
- Date and time of the last diagnosis
Functional description
1 | Sticker (example) in inspection window |
2 | Connection for diagnosis software BEKA-DiSys |
3 | Switch with detents to set the lubrication duration |
4 | Switch with detents to set the cycle time |
5 | Functional status LEDs |
6 | Frame of inspection window |
7 | Intermediate lubrication button |
8 | Inspection window |
9 | Voltage connection, bayonet 7-pins |
10 | Plug-type connection M12x1 (green) for pressure monitoring |
11 | Plug-type connection M12x1 (red) for level monitoring |
When voltage is switched on (ignition on), the red and the green LED in the inspection window will glow for 1,5 seconds and signal function standby of the control unit.
If the voltage is interrupted (ignition off) during a cycle or the lubrication duration, the data will be stored in the operational database of the control unit. When voltage is applied again, the cycle will continue from that point where it has been interrupted.
You can actuate an intermediate lubrication at any time by pushing the button for intermediate lubrication when voltage is applied. The data from the current lubrication cycle will be deleted and a new cycle will start.
Some errors require a reset after troubleshooting. Push the button for intermediate lubrication. The product will start a new lubrication cycle.
Setting the parameters
With the diagnosis software BEKA-DiSys you can change the lubrication duration and the operational mode for the lubrication duration.
NOTICE
Order and exchange the sticker in the inspection window of the protective housing when you have changed the parameters.
You can change the lubrication duration and cycle time within a setting range at the indexing switches in the inspection window.
- Detach the frame of the inspection window with a flat screwdriver.
- Detach the four recessed head screws and remove the transparent inspection window.
NOTICE
Water in the control unit
If you do not reinstall inspection window and the frame properly after setting the parameters, water can get into the control unit and destroy it.
Operational modes
Cycle time time-dependent
With this operational mode you can set the cycle time in minutes or hours, depending on the selected setting range.
1 | Lubrication duration |
2 | Time-dependent cycle time |
Possible setting ranges for time-dependent cycle time:
- 0,5 to 8 h (16 notches, in increments of 0,5 h)
- 2 to 32 min (16 notches, in increments of 2 min)
- 2 to 32 h (16 notches, in increments of 2 h)
Set the cycle time within the selected range with the right indexing switch.
Lubrication duration time-dependent
With this operational mode you can set the lubrication duration in minutes or seconds, depending on the selected setting range.
1 | Time-dependent lubrication duration |
2 | Cycle time |
Possible setting ranges for time-dependent lubrication duration:
- 1 to 16 min (16 notches, in increments of 1 min)
- 2 to 32 min (16 notches, in increments of 2 min)
- 2 to 32 s (16 notches, in increments of 2 s)
Set the lubrication duration within the selected setting range with the left indexing switch.
Lubrication duration revolution-dependent
In this operational mode you can set the lubrication duration by the number of counted pump revolutions. A sensor in the product emits a signal to the control unit with each pump revolution. The control unit signals an error if it does not receive a signal within a monitoring time (default setting 30 s). Refer to Signal indicators BEKA-troniX1 for more information.
NOTICE
BEKA-DiSys diagnosis software
You can change setting ranges or the revolution monitoring time (where applicable) with the BEKA-DiSys diagnosis software.
1 | Revolutions |
2 | Cycle time |
3 | Revolutions-dependent lubrication duration |
Possible setting ranges for revolution-dependent lubrication duration:
- 1 to 16 revolutions (16 notches, in increments of 1 revolution)
- 10 to 160 revolutions (16 notches, in increments of 10 revolutions)
- 170 to 320 revolutions (16 notches, in increments of 10 revolutions)
Set the lubrication duration within the selected setting range with the left indexing switch.
Level monitoring
This function requires a plug-type connection for additional equipment and the version MIN-level, plug-type connection M12x1 and voltage range 10 – 60 V DC.
Refer to BEKA-troniX1 connection diagrams and Level monitoring for connection and further information.
NOTICE
Level monitoring is not used
Deactivate the level monitoring function with the diagnosis software BEKA-DiSys if you do not want to use it. Close the provided connection with a protective cap.
Pressure monitoring
With a micro switch attached to the pressure limiting valve you can monitor the operating pressure in the lubrication system. The micro switch is connected at the green marked connection with plug M12x1. Refer to BEKA-troniX1 connection diagrams.
If the pressure in the system exceeds a set value, the pressure limiting valve will open. The micro switch is actuated and signals to the control unit. The control unit will switch off the product and signal an error. Refer to Signal indicators BEKA-troniX1.
This error requires a reset after troubleshooting. Push the button for intermediate lubrication.
