1.2 Product labeling

Your Lineserver and IPC is provided with an IDtag. This shows the most important data for the
device:
Lichtblaustrasse 10
1220 Wien
MODELL / MODEL
ARTIKELNR. / ITEM NO.
SPANNUNG / VOLTAGE
STROM / CURRENT
BAUJAHR / YEAR OF PROD.

LEERGEW. / INT. WEIGHT
In addition to the ID-tag the 10-digit serial number

with a bar code is attached to the unit.
Make sure that those using the unit are

familiar with the training manual and the
unit.
Make every person in the effective range
of the unit aware of the direct and indirect risks with this unit.
1.1 Proper use and their limits

3.4 Utility requirements for M7.3

control
For the replacement of a bus module, follow the

instructions.
For the installation of an IPC or a teachbox the

following requirements must be given:
for each IPC

115/230VAC
for each Lineserverer a power supply of

115/230VAC
power
supply
of
Morever, in advance of the installation, cable

routes must be given for the wiring of the CAN-A
and CAN-B lines.
INFORMATION!
CAN-A and CAN-B cable should not be,
due to possible communication problems, placed together with other cables.

line (CAN-B) and remove the D-sub connector.
2. Open the cover of the old and new bus
module with a screwdriver.
3. Transfer the jumper setting of the old bus
module to the new bus module.
4. Screw the cover on the bus module.
5. Screw the new bus module to the bus line
(CAN-B) and connect the D-sub connector.
6. Check, in the CAN-menu of the M7.3 control, if the new bus module is listed with a
green background (state ON) and the
green LED of the bus module is illuminated.
If this is not the case, again check the correct jumper setting and the correct cable
connection.
INFORMATION!
If the version of the new bus module is
higher than the version of the old bus
module, please contact your Wittmann
service technician.

M7.3 control.
At the IPC/Touch all functions (see Chapter 5) are

available.
At this form of the control unit, the screen (Touch)
and the computer (IPC) are separated to each
other. Power for the IPC is supplied via the power
supply of 115/230VAC.
The computer (IPC) is connected to the Lineserver.
At the Teachbox, not all functions (see Chapter 5)

are available.
INFORMATION!
The Teachbox is directly connected to
the Lineserver. The Teachbox is supplied power by the Lineserver.

DRYMAX Properties
General Settings
If the exhaust air temperature is higher 120C and

a good dew point exists (dew point controlled valve
change is enable on the device), it changes to
process step 12.
If the exhaust air temperature is below 120C and
further falling, and the dew point is poor or not
present, it will change to process step 15.
Process step 10: not used
Process step 12: Start waiting time
In this step, all valves are moved to the required
position for the waiting time.
Process step 13: Waiting time
In this step it will be waiting until a poor dew point
has reached, or the processing time of 200
minutes has exceeded.
This displays the process steps and the current

temperatures. If a dew point sensor is available,
the current dew point is shown and the course is
displayed in a graph.
The image sequences are different between battery dryer and compact dryer.

Process step 3: min. regeneration heating time
In this step the regeneration blower is turned ON
and the regeneration heater starts heating. After
10 minutes the regeneration heater must reach the
regeneration temperature. If the regeneration
temperature is not reached, an error message is
generated.
Process step 4: Regeneration Heating
The temperature is now set on the regeneration
temperature and is maintained on this. The next
process step is initialed when the regeneration
heating time is over (default 40 minutes) or the
exhaust air exceeds 120C.
If a dew point is available and a dew point controlled valve change set on the dryer, a valve
change to the regenerated cartridge is performed
until the dew point is reached. Set the desired
temperature for the dew point and thus for the
valve change.

The temperature of the dew point can

Troubleshooting
9.1 Frequently asked questions

How do I turn a loader OFF or ON?
In the menu General settings you can see the status of the FEEDMAX. If the LED is gray, the loader is OFF.
If the LED is green, the loader is ON. To change the status of the FEEDMAX press
or
button.
How to change the process temperature at the drying silo SILMAX?

Check in the General settings of the SILMAX, if the SILMAX is turned ON. Enter the desired process temperature at SET-process temperature. Take care of the information of the material manufacturer. If a coupling station is used, the process temperature from the material database is used.
How to change the feed time and purging time at the loader FEEDMAX?
In the menu Loading of the FEEDMAX you can change the parameters for the loader. Also the feed time and
purging time can be edited.
How can I avoid angelhair?
Angle hair means the acccumulation of single, thin strip of material, that most of time accumulates as strands
of wool in the loader FEEDMAX. There, angel hair prevents the unimpeded departure of the granulate. Angel
hair is formed by high conveying velocity and a low softening temperature. Angel hair occurs particularly at
the PE and PP material.
Countermeasure:
Reduce conveying speed - this is achieved by increasing the material load. Change the setting on the suction box. Take note, that the conveying time is now shortened.
How can I see the lock time at the drying silo SILMAX?
In the menu Holding Time SILMAX you get an overview of the relevant information about the holding time of
the drying silo.
How to activate the spare pump?
A spare pump must be provided in the configuration of the conveying system. The activation of the spare
pump is depending on the control of the valves, fully automatic or manually. At controlled valves the activation of the spare pump is fully automatic. In combination with controlled valves an interval mode can be set.
In the interval mode, the spare pump will be activated, e.g. every week. So the spare pump is also available
in case of emergency.
For maintenance work, it is possible to switch to the spare pump. Activate the Edit mode and enter to the
properties. Press the
button.
How the filling level of the silo is required?

A graphical representation shows the level of the silo as a % specification. A level measurement is performed in regular intervals.
Can I show the dew point of the dry-air generator DRYMAX?
In the DRYMAX General sub menu, you can check the current dew point, which is also graphed. Furthermore, the dew point for a cartridge change can be set.
How to process a material change?
Work according to the material view from left to right. Start with the material change in the consumer (IMM).
If necessary change at the coupling station the properties of the material source.
Open the Edit mode. Activate the properties of the material consumer or coupling station. Change to the tab
map Material. Press the
button and follow the instructions for the material change.
Page 68 of 107
Whats the material saver function?

If a coded coupling station is used, the value MSF Tmp from the material database will be written in the
MSF set of the SILMAX properties, after a material change. If from the drying hopper, no material is removed, the return air temperature rises. The return air temperature rises to adjustable threshold value MSF
set the DRYMAX lowers the process air temperature to the temperature MSF set + 10C or 18F. Granulate drying is now slowed down considerably while the material is kept dry. If the return air temperature drops
below the temperature MSF set 10C or 18F for instance through a conveying cycle. DRYMAX detects
the drying demand and sets the process temperature to the specified set value T set.
