  • Page 5: Introduction

    _____________________________________________________________________________________ Introduction The MillipaK PUMP (series motor) range of controllers provides a new range of power frames for 24V-48V, 180A - 600A in one of two small, highly efficient packages. This is achieved using a Sevcon patented power switching scheme and radical new construction techniques, which enable large powers to be incorporated into very small packages.
  • Page 6: Safety

    Safety _____________________________________________________________________________________ Safety The MillipaK controller contains a triple fail-safe system to give a high level of safety. If the diagnostic LED is not illuminated or flashes, the safety circuit may have tripped and the truck may not drive. The MillipaK controller may be used with suitable onboard chargers, as supplied by Sevcon.
  • Page 7: Installation

    Installation Mounting _____________________________________________________________________________________ Installation The small footprint of the MillipaK controller gives maximum flexibility to the user for mounting options. The following section gives details of certain criteria that should be considered when situating the controller on a vehicle. Mounting The MillipaK and MillipaK HP units provide 4 x M6 clearance holes for mounting.
  • Page 8: Millipak Pump Power Wiring

    Installation Wiring/Power _____________________________________________________________________________________ MillipaK Pump Power Wiring NOTE: The Pump battery positive power terminal may be wired directly to the battery positive (via a suitable fuse) or via a line contactor if used in a Traction / Pump system. It should be considered whether or not pump operation is required if a traction fault causes the line contactor to drop out.
  • Page 9: Millipak Pump Light Wiring

    Installation Wiring/Light ______________________________________________________________________________ MillipaK Pump Light Wiring NOTES: The line and auxiliary contactors coils are wired to B+, on the switched side of the key-switch. The second analogue input on pin 11 is also available for use as a digital input. See system configuration section for how to configure the second analogue input as a digital switch input.
  • Page 10: Calibrator

    The Calibrator is a hand-held adjustment unit which can be used to configure and test the system. The MillipaK is designed to work with the Calibrator currently in use with SEVCON' s MOS90 system. See diagram below. The menu structure is shown in the Calibrator Map located near the end of this manual.
  • Page 11: Calibrator Security Levels

    If the password was incorrect or no password was entered, the system always defaults to Service mode. After the Security Level has been displayed, the system enters the normal menu structure shown in the Calibrator Map. To change the password level, you need to recycle the Keyswitch.

  • Page 15: Configuration

    Configuration System ______________________________________________________________________________ Configuration Configuration of the MillipaK controller is split into two categories – system and performance, which will be discussed in turn. System Configuration The MillipaK system configuration items relate to how the MillipaK will interface with connected hardware such as the system battery, lift control switches, accelerator and the pump motor.
  • Page 16: System Voltage

    The system voltage usually refers to the main system supply battery voltage. The controller uses this information to ensure low and high voltage settings are within an appropriate range.

  • Page 24: Features

    ______________________________________________________________________________ Features The MillipaK controller has several features designed to offer the user maximum flexibility, safety and performance whilst ensuring the controller is protected against adverse or fault conditions. These features can be split into three categories – standard controller features, safety features and controller protection features.
  • Page 25: Lift Switch Inputs - Priority

    6.02 Options Default Priority Additive Priority For example, if switches 5 – 7 are set as priority then activating all switches will result in the speed demand set for switch 5 being used. MillipaK PUMP Controller Manual Page 25 07/11/05...

  • Page 30: Lift Inhibit Input

    One of the digital inputs may be configured as Lift Inhibit. When the inhibit input is active then no lift functions are allowed to start. Any lift functions already active will not be affected. MillipaK PUMP Controller Manual Page 30...
  • Page 31: Cooling Fan

    ______________________________________________________________________________ Cooling Fan There is a facility provided on the standard MillipaK Pump controller which allows a traction motor cooling fan to be activated via a contactor drive output. The output is activated when the Seat Switch input is active. The seat switch input must be configured using the digital i/o configuration item.
  • Page 32: Pump Hours Meter

    ______________________________________________________________________________ Pump Hours Meter The MillipaK maintains a log of the number of hours during which the controller is providing Pump functionality. The Pump Hours Meter runs whenever the pump motor speed is greater than zero. The current number of logged Pump hours can be viewed using the Calibrator. Refer to the Calibrator section for more information.
  • Page 33: Personality Checksum

    ______________________________________________________________________________ Personality Checksum As you can see from this Manual and the Calibrator Map, the MillipaK employs quite a few personalities to give the user as much flexibility as possible in setting up their system. After the personalities have been setup to give the desired functionality and performance, most customers will request the same setup for each subsequent controller they purchase.
  • Page 34: Safety Features

    The controller’s safety system includes a microprocessor watchdog which can detect software failure, and a hardware fail-safe system. Every time the controller is powered-up, the software checks that the fail-safe circuit is able to switch off the MOSFETs and open the contactors. MillipaK PUMP Controller Manual Page 34 07/11/05...
  • Page 35: Controller Protection Features

    Controller Protection/Thermal Cutback ______________________________________________________________________________ Controller Protection Features There are several in built features which are designed to protect the MillipaK controller from damage due to excessive load currents, voltages and prolonged periods of high demand. Temperature Monitoring If the temperature of the power frame exceeds 75°C its maximum available current will be reduced.
  • Page 36: Timed Current Cutback

    40°C. If this situation was allowed to arise damage may result in the controller. In order to prevent this situation a timed current cutback feature is incorporated in the MillipaK controller, which works as described below: The controller monitors the power through the armature MOSFETs during a 60 second period and uses the average current seen over this time to determine the new current limit.
  • Page 37: Safe Operating Area (Soa)

    For most applications SOA will have little or no effect on the operation of the controller. Its effect is more significant in protecting the controller against adverse loads such as damaged motors and static test rigs. 24-48V Controllers % On MillipaK PUMP Controller Manual Page 37 07/11/05...
