1.0 DRAWING LIST MCS-401A CONTROLLER PART NUMBER/DWG NUMBER 115 VOLTS AC MCS-401A-12 24 VOLTS DC 115VAC MCS-401A NOTE: 230 VAC incoming power option for MCS-401 and MCS-401A: VOLT-FTS-21 2.0 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION MCS-401A controllers are designed to operate a single vacuum power unit to convey material to a single vacuum receiver station. The MCS-401A controller cannot control either a proportioning valve or a purge valve. However they are equipped with an alarm output. 3.0 UNPACKING AND INSPECTION The MCS-401A controller is shipped complete and is fully programmed from the factory. After receipt of the unit, completely inspect it for damage. Although, the units are packaged securely, vibration and mishandling during transit can cause damage. All screws, bolts and other connections should be checked to make sure they have not come loose in transit. Report any damage immediately to the transportation company. 4.0 MECHANICAL INSTALLATION 4.1 General The single most important activity performed to ensure satisfactory operation of a pneumatic convey system is the actual installation of the equipment, with personnel safety weighted at every decision point. All components should be located so that material lines and vacuum lines are as short as possible. Elbows or other changes in direction are minimized. The material conveying line should be horizontal and/or vertical and as direct as possible with no slope. Care needs to be taken that all connectors are vacuum tight. All rigid conveying tubing should be properly supported by the user to provide a safe, but secure installation. It's generally acceptable to use flexible hose and clamps to connect material pick up lances, vacuum receivers, etc., to material or vacuum lines. The flexible hose should be only as long as needed since excess hose will reduce the efficiency of the system. The hose should not sag. The conveying lines should be grounded to prevent "shocks" from static electricity that may be generated by some materials as they are conveyed. Rigid tubes and elbows should be connected together with bolted couplers. Each tube end should be square cut, round, and without burrs. The tube ends should butt together when installed, with the bolted coupler centered over the joint. All national and local codes need to be followed. Proper grounding of all equipment is important. Check the electrical wiring schematic for wiring numbers and details. The following describes installation of typical system components. Some of them are optional and may not be required in your system. Novatec, Inc. 2018 All Rights Reserved 4

4.2 Vacuum Power Unit MCS-401A-MCS-401 IM 10 FEB 2018 Locate so that access to the secondary filter element mounted to the vacuum power unit is available. Secure to floor or platform as necessary. Attach high voltage (check nameplate) to the motor starter (located in the motor starter junction box mounted to the vacuum power unit) from a field supplied disconnect switch or to the combination starter with fused disconnect switch. An electrical ground wire is also required. A clean, dry supply of 80-120 PSIG compressed air is connected to the vacuum breaker valve solenoid. When the vacuum breaker valve is energized it allows ambient air to pass through the vacuum blower. This is done instead of simply shutting the pump down to prevent premature wearing of the pump and belt drive caused by constantly starting and stopping the pump. Eventually the pump will shut down completely if not needed when the search timer expires. 4.3 Cyclone Filter Locate the cyclone filter as close as possible to the vacuum power unit. Provide access to the material catch pan or fines drum, located at the bottom of the cyclone, as necessary. Secure the cyclone filter to the floor or platform. Attach vacuum lines from the conveying system to the cyclone inlet (Tangential inlet on the side of the cyclone body). Attach the cyclone outlet (top duct) to the vacuum breaker valve inlet on the vacuum power unit. 4.4 Compressed Air Blowback Some vacuum receivers are provided with a compressed air blow back solenoid valve for cleaning the filter, depending on the application. The pulse blow back solenoid valve is wired to the main control panel (115-VAC signal neutral) or (24 VDC and 0 VDC). A clean, dry supply of 80-120 PSIG compressed air is required. Connect it to either the compressed air accumulator tank supplied on large vacuum receivers or directly to the pulsed blow back solenoid valve only that is supplied on smaller vacuum receivers.

6.0 OPERATION 6.1 Control Description The MCS-401A series vacuum loading control employs a mini-plc Control for loading functions. The control is housed in a rugged enclosure and is factory programmed for functions related to vacuum loading. NOTE: The user may adjust certain parameters of the control to fine tune their loader s operation, but changing settings other than those listed can damage control operation. 6.2 Preset Controller Values The MCS-401 controller is preset at the factory with the following values. FUNCTION TIMER FACTORY SETTING Load Time Pmp/LT 15.00 Seconds Dump Time Pmp/DT 10.00 Seconds Seek Time Pmp/ST 45.00 Seconds Alarm Time Alm/AT 0.00 Seconds Blowback Count B29:TL 3 Counts 6.3 Changing Loading Parameters The control is equipped with a small LCD screen that displays operating and programming prompts, plus pushbuttons to aid in selecting parameters and making changes. Instructions listed below are repeated on the control face for ease of use. 7.0 PARAMETERS EXPLANATION 7.1 Load Time: Pmp/LT Novatec, Inc. 2018 All Rights Reserved 8

Measured in seconds, this is the amount of time the vacuum pump will run to load material into the vacuum receiver. Too little time will result in insufficient loading. Too much time will pack the receiver full of material, prematurely blinding the filter and possibly clogging the conveying line. This setting should be adjusted over the course of several normal loading cycles to just fill (but not overfill) the vacuum receiver. NOTE: VRP series powder receivers include an extended body to house the cartridge filter(s). Loaded material should not be allowed to be filled up into this extended hopper area. It is intended only as a housing for the filter cartridges(s), not a hopper for collecting loaded material. NOTE: DO NOT ALLOW VACUUM RECEIVER TO OVERFILL. When the load time is completed, the Vacuum Breaker Valve on the vacuum pump will open, allowing material in the vacuum receiver to fall through the dump valve. The filter will also be cleaned during the dump time with pulses of compressed air (Blowback), if equipped with optional Blowback. The dump time and the number of pulses used to clean the filter are adjustable by changing the Pmp/DT and BB/Cnt values respectively in the "Settings menu of the controller. The dump time should be set 1 to 2 seconds greater than the time necessary for the receiver to completely empty. Enter the number of pulses required to clean the filter (BB/Cnt) as the pulse value. The load and dump/pulse cycles will continue until the drying hopper or surge bin is full, at which time the material will hold the dump valve flapper open, placing the system in a seek mode, timer Pmp/ST. If the hopper remains full until the end of the seek time, the pump will shut down. As material is withdrawn from the hopper, the material level will fall, the flapper will close, and the receiver will again be activated to automatically pull material into the receiver thus keeping the hopper full. On machine mount units the load and dump/pulse cycles will continue, if the material level remains below the sensors located on the sight tube. When the material is above this point a capacitance sensor or photoelectric sensors will continuously detect material and not allow the system to load. As material is withdrawn, the level will fall, and the sensors will no longer detect material. The loader will then continue with the loading cycle. 7.2 Dump Time: Pmp/DT Measured in seconds, this is the setting for how long the loader will remain at rest after loading, to allow material to evacuate the loader. This setting may be increased in case the material is very slow moving. 7.3 Seek Time: Pmp/ST Also measured in seconds, this parameter controls how long the vacuum pump will seek for a call for loading before the vacuum breaker valve is activated, allowing ambient air to pass through instead of shutting down, which causes undue wear. 7.4 Alarm Time: Alm/AT Measured in seconds, is the pause time between the completion of Motor On Time and movement of the discharge flapper. This time setting drives the No-Load alarm feature by determining if material was actually loaded and dumped, but prevents false alarms from slow moving material discharge. This setting may be increased if nuisance alarms occur from slow moving material (IE: fluffy regrind) that is typically slow to evacuate the loader. It may be decreased if the No-Load alarm is too slow to respond to your material supply needs (IE: frequent shortages of material flow). Novatec, Inc. 2018 All Rights Reserved 9

7.5 Alarm Count: Alm/CT This number represents how many consecutive no-load alarms will cause the alarm horn to sound. 7.6 Blowback Count; BB/Cnt Sets the number of blowback pulses that occur following loading for the compressed air system to clean the filter(s). Compressed is blown down through the filters in the opposite direction of the vacuum loading air, blasting collected fines and dust from the filter media and into the loaded material. Typically, more blasts will clean the filters better and extend the time between manual filter cleaning and provide more efficient loading. However, compressed air is expensive and too many blasts waste this resource. Also, blasts that extend beyond the dump sequence may actually be strong enough to create dusting issues around the loader. 8.0 SETTING THE TIME The following describes how to set the internal clock. This clock is for reference only and has no effect on the operation or function of the controller. The controller does not have a battery to maintain the time when power is off. Instead it uses a capacitor that has reserve power for 80 hours. If power is off for a longer period of time, the clock will need to be reset. 9.0 RUNNING HOUR COUNTER It is advantageous to know how many hours your vacuum system has been running so you know when maintenance is required. The MCS-401A allow you to keep track of those hours automatically. The running hours of the vacuum pump (whenever the pump is energized) are counted and displayed in the lower right hand corner of the MSC-401A display on the home screen.
