Kessler-Ellis Products MINItrol Series Installation & Operating Instructions Manual

Description:
The MS287 is a special version of our Minitrol series counter/
ratemeter. The standard Minitrol is modified to bring a 60Hz
(50Hz) signal to pin 10 (AC powered units only). The user has the
option of connecting this signal to the A input, B input or both. By
entering the proper scaling factor, the user can scale the input to
read the desired time base. EXAMPLE: If the unit is powered with
115VAC @ 60Hz, The scaling factor for A can be set to yield
different time bases: i.e. 60 yields seconds, 360 yields minutes & 1/
10, 3600 yields minutes, etc. Input B can be scaled the same way
or used as a separate counter.
special can be used in many applications involving time/count
control. To order this special, add the prefix "MS287" to the
standard Minitrol part number, i.e. MS287MC2A3.

Application:
This product special is especially useful for combined counter and
timer control functions. It has been used in applications such as
controlling the lubrication of a gear box in a drilling machine. The
gear box has to be lubricated for 5 seconds every 10 minutes. The
lubricating fluid needs to be changed after 75,000 lubrications.
This is easily accomplished using the MS287MC2A3.
The unit is programmed as follows:
Factor: factor of A = 3600, factor of B = 1.
Count: rst 0 (reset to 0), A sep B (A & B are separate counters), Hi
CPS (0-10KHz input speed).
Relay: A = 5.0 (duration of A relay is 5 seconds), B = 0.0 (duration
of B relay is latched till reset).
Presets: Preset A = 10, Preset B = 75,000
The relay on the machine which is energized when the machine is
running is connected between pin 10 (60Hz) and pin 5 (input A). A
simple solder jumper modification is made on the PC board to
make B a "batch" counter. Counter B will advance once for each
output of A. Relay A is connected to a solenoid valve which
controls the lubricating fluid. 115VAC/60Hz is connected to pins 11
& 12.

This system operates as follows:
When the machine is running, the relay on the machine is ener-
gized and the A counter starts to accumulate time. When the A
counter (timer) reaches 10 (preset A), the A counter resets, the A
Relay energizes and opens the solenoid valve for 5 seconds and
the B counter advances one. The system will run this cycle until
the B counter reaches 75,000.
75,000, the B Relay energizes and turns on a light to signal that the
fluid needs to be changed.
