ECOLAB MB Hybrid-P Multi Booster

This menu is used for the configuration of the booster. It is in this menu the selection of machine typeis made, and also a few functions are enabled here. This menu is Only to be used by Ecolab personel. End User is NOT supposed to access this menu.

Installations

Reset All Counters
Reset Total Counters in Info Menu (AAA).

Powered Time
Shows for how many days the controller Board and display board has been used. It is not possible to reset this timer.

Device type
This menu must be set to match the machine type in which the display module is used. MB: Used for all Multiboosters

**I/O Settings

**

This menu is used for the configuration of the 2 outputs sockets and 1 input at the controller board. Both Output and Input Ports are operated in parallel, so there are no difference whether ports at controller 1,2,3,4,5, or 6 is used.

The output sockets are relays, with the following maximum specifications:

OUT1 and OUT2 relays:

The input voltage at “IN” port must be within the limts below:

Input Port (IN)

Set Output 1 cfg

None:
No function.

Run/Stop:
The relay is on if the booster is running, and off when the booster is stopped.

Error:
The relay goes on if the tipster detects an error, otherwise, the relay is “OFF”. The relay will go OFF when an error is reset by the “OFF” button.

Set Output 2 cfg

None:
No function.

Delayed start:
When the booster detects a start condition (flow or pressure) this relay goes on, and the booster will not start until a preset no. of seconds have passed. The size of the delay is set in the settings menu, under Startup delay “EW”. This menu is only visible when output 2 cfg” is set to Delayed start.

Set Input cfg

None:
No function.

Setpoint:
This is used when an external control of the output pressure is wanted. The external voltage source must be in the interval between 4-10V for the machine to run. 4V is equal to 10 bars and 10V is equal to 25 bars (not more than 20bar + inlet pressure).

Release:
This signal is used for keeping the pump stopped until a signal is present. The signal level must be above 5V for release of the pump (but not more than 12V).

Assigning address after replacement of display, control board, or

frequency inverter

1. Power off all pumps except pump nr 1, typically the pump closet to the display.
2. Wait for power to be completely off pumps (3 min.)
3. In display go to setup → multi-pump → configure network → confirm configure the network.
4. The display will now for a short while be looking like this:
5. After a short while the display will change to “Power up Pump No.: 2 of 2” (if it is a BF16 otherwise it will change to “Power up Pump No.: 2 of x” where x is the total no of pumps).
6. For a BF16 the display will look like this:
7. Turn on power to pump no 2.
8. When this is done for all pumps one after the other, the display will restart and the booster is ready to run.
