PRO-S Rev1104 INTRODUCTION Overview The Fire Research PRO-S pressure governor uses state of the art programmable microprocessor technology. It will maintain a steady pump discharge pressure by controlling the engine speed or maintain a selected engine RPM. The PRO-S will operate in one of two modes, pressure or RPM.
All models provide the same functions, push button controls, and digital readout for the management of pump discharge pressure. (Refer to Table 1 for detailed specifications.) Table 1. PRO-S Specifications PRO-S 1 PRO-S 2 PRO-S 3 PRO-S 4...
PRO-S Rev1104 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The PRO-S pressure governors are compatible with the following engines: PRO-S 1 Cummins ISB, ISC, ISM, and ISL PRO-S 2 Detroit Diesel (Series 50 and 60) PRO-S 3 Non-Electronic diesel and gasoline PRO-S 4 Navistar and Detroit Diesel (Series 40)
PRO-S Rev1104 Controls and Indicators All controls and indicators are located on the front of the control module. It contains the push button electronic controls, LED indicators, and a digital display. (Refer to Figure 1.) PRESET Button The green PRESET button sets the pump pressure or engine RPM to a preprogrammed value.
PRO-S Rev1104 INSTALLATION Install Control Module Note: The control module can be mounted anywhere on the pump panel. It should be mounted close to the engine warning indicators. 1. Measure and mark mounting location for control module panel cutout and mounting screw holes.
PRO-S Rev1104 Install Pressure Transducer The discharge pressure transducer is mounted on the discharge manifold of the pump. A T-fitting can be used to share the master pressure gauge outlet on the discharge manifold. If there is a check valve in the discharge side of the pump, mount the transducer before the check valve.
PRO-S Rev1104 Install Throttle Servomotor (Non-Electronic Engine Only) The throttle servomotor (FRC part number PRO-34M.) is used for engines that do not have an electronic engine control system. The throttle servomotor has a universal mounting flange with six mounting holes.
PRO-S Rev1104 Installation 1. Place the throttle servomotor in position and secure. Note: The total motion of the linear actuator rod is approximately 1.85 inches. The motion of the fuel control arm must be more than 1.85 inches to prevent damage to the arm. It is recommended that the fuel control arm have a two inch stroke at the point the cable attaches.
PRO-S Rev1104 Install Optional High Idle The High Idle Kit (FRC part number PRO-38H) provides the necessary components needed to install this option including a DPDT switch, 2500 ohm potentiometer, an indicator light, two diodes, and a cable. The high idle cap may be installed on the end of the control module high idle 3-pin Deutsch connector.
PRO-S Rev1104 OPERATION On power up the PRO-S will be in the pressure mode of operation. The SETTING display will show IdLE. If there is a problem, the SETTING display will show an error code. Refer to the Diagnostics section for error code descriptions. The minimum pump discharge pressure must be greater than 15 PSI for the PRO-S governor to take control of engine speed.
PRO-S Rev1104 Pressure Mode Operation In the pressure mode of operation the PRESSURE LED will be on. The PRO-S will maintain a constant discharge pressure. It will adjust the engine RPM automatically to compensate for variations in pressure. Note: When changing from RPM mode to pressure mode the pressure setting will be the pressure that the pump was operating at in RPM mode.
PRO-S Rev1104 RPM Mode Operation In the RPM mode of operation the RPM LED will be on. The PRO-S will maintain a constant engine RPM. The pump discharge pressure can vary but, as a safety feature, the PRO-S limits the increase in pressure to 30 PSI. As the discharge pressure approaches this limit the PRO-S will automatically lower the RPM to prevent a high pressure surge.
PRO-S Rev1104 System Options High Idle Note: If the optional remote high idle kit is not being installed, ensure that the high idle cap (supplied) is installed on the end of the control module high idle cable. The RPM that the engine will run at when the high idle circuit is engaged is set by adjusting the 2500 ohm potentiometer.
PRO-S Rev1104 CALIBRATION RPM Calibration (PRO-S 3, 6, and 8) The following models of the PRO-S require the RPM control to be calibrated: PRO-S 3 Non-electronic diesel and gasoline engines PRO-S 6 Ford engines PRO-S 8 Scania engines Initial conditions To perform the following calibration procedure a reference tachometer is needed to verify the correct engine RPM, the engine must be at idle RPM, and the SETTING display on the PRO-S must show IDLE.
PRO-S Rev1104 High Idle Option Calibration The RPM that the engine will run at when the high idle circuit is engaged is set by adjusting the 2500 ohm potentiometer. 1. Loosen the lock nut on the potentiometer. 2. Place the high idle switch to ON. 3.
PRO-S Rev1104 DIAGNOSTICS The information listed in Table 3 is to aid in troubleshooting a problem. The diagnostic code will be shown in the SETTING display on the control module. Table 3.
