1. Introduction

1.2 Operating principles of a cone crusher In a cone crusher the process material is crushed between two rigid surfaces. In general, the motion of the moving surface is independent of the load on the crusher. The crushing action is achieved by an eccentric gyratory movement of the mainshaft (6). Individual pieces of process material (e. g. rock or ore) are nipped, compressed and crushed between the mantle (4) and the concave ring (3). The quality and quantity of the produced process material is a result of the interaction between the crusher and the process material. The crushing chamber’s geometry, the crusher’s dynamics and the process material are the most important factors. The concave ring (3), mantle (4), eccentric assembly (5) and the location of the pivot point determine the chamber geometry of the cone crusher. The crusher’s drive motor rotates the eccentric assembly at a constant speed through a gear transmission. The rotation of the eccentric assembly causes the lower end of the mainshaft to gyrate. At the top of the mainshaft (6) is the spider bearing (1) that acts as the pivot point for this gyrating motion. The mantle is fixed to the mainshaft and the concave ring is fixed to the topshell. The gyration of the mainshaft means that the distance between the mantle and the concave ring continually varies. When this distance decreases the incoming process material will be subjected to a compressive stress and will be crushed. When the mantle moves away from the concave ring, the process material is able to flow down through the chamber.The mantle and the concave ring must be replaced regularly as they are continuously worn. The rate at which this wear occurs depends on the characteristics of the process material.

1. Introduction Setting adjustment Due to the need to compensate for wear and the need to produce different product sizes the crusher has a control system, named the Hydroset system. It basically consists of a robust hydraulic jack, which supports the mainshaft and adjusts its position. By moving the mainshaft up and down, the discharge setting can be changed and the size of the crushed material can thereby be changed. Read more in your cone crusher’s Operator’s manual.

1. Introduction

1.3 Function and benefits of the ASRi The ASRi (Automatic Setting Regulation–Intelligent) is the cone crusher’s setting and regulation system. It can also display statistical and historical data, store different crushing programs, etc. The duties of the ASRi system are to automatically regulate the crusher and to protect the crusher from overloads. In addition, the ASRi system incorporates several functions which simplify operation. When the discharge setting is adjusted manually by the operator, the setting must be kept large enough to avoid possible overload conditions. Consequently, the crusher is not utilized to its full potential. When the crusher is controlled by the ASRi, the system keeps the setting as close as permitted by the machine without risk of damaging it. Thus, the ASRi helps the user achieve higher production, a higher degree of reduction, and improved product distribution. In addition, a better product shape can be obtained. A further benefit is that the crusher's wearing liners can be utilized better. The ASRi monitors the cone crusher’s performance and ensures that the measured values lie within the permitted limits that have been set in the system. If these limits are exceeded, the ASRi will adjust the setting until the desired values are attained. The ASRi operator’s panel, hereafter called the control unit, can be mounted almost anywhere it is desired, but most likely in the control room. It can also communicate with other systems in the local plant. The control unit incorporates an integrated colour touch screen which is the operator’s interface. The ASRi control unit is continuously fed, through the distributed I/O units, with information about – The power (kW or hp) drawn by the cone crusher’s drive motor. – The pressure (MPa or psi) in the Hydroset system. This value is an indication of the crushing force inside the cone crusher. (Continued)

1. Introduction – The distance A (mm or in.) between the underside of the spider hub and the top of the headnut. This is also referred to as the A-dimension, and is used to describe the position of the mainshaft. The Adimension is also used to calculate the cone crusher’s setting, also referred to as the CSS, and the wear on the manganese. If the mantle is raised in order to reduce the setting or compensate for wear, the Adimension will decrease. Regulation of the crusher’s performance can be carried out in accordance with two basic principles: – maintaining a constant, predetermined setting – maintaining a constant, predetermined crusher load. The system checks the input information and compares it with the permitted levels. The system detects and registers repetitive pressure peaks and reacts by running the Hydroset pump in order to increase or decrease the setting. The system will also give warnings and alarms of different kinds, such as an indication that the manganese is nearing the end of its life or that a sensor is faulty.

1.3.1 ASRi system description The computer in the control unit monitors and regulates the crusher. The computer stores the statistics, historical data, and crushing programs etc. The control unit provides a variety of possibilities for communication with other systems in the plant. The ASRi system consists of the following subsystems: • • • • •

The power supply unit (PS) must be installed close to the control unit (OP). The other units can be installed in the most convenient positions as they are connected by a bus system. The system incorporates a number of transducers that provide the measurement values and signals that the control unit needs in order to monitor and regulate the crusher: – A pressure transducer measures the pressure in the crusher's Hydroset system. – A position transducer measures the position of the crusher's mainshaft. – A temperature transducer measures the temperature of the lubricating oil returning to the tank from the crusher.

1. Introduction The signals from these transducers are fed to a distributed I/O unit designated as HT-CBT. This distributed I/O unit forwards the measurements to the control unit via a serial bus, also referred to as the ASRi bus. There is a second I/O unit: – A power transducer with an associated current transformer and if necessary, a voltage transformer, that measures the power drawn by the crusher’s drive motor. The signal from the power transducer is forwarded to the control unit via the ASRi bus. If the motor is of the high-voltage type, the voltage measurements needed by the power transducer are made via appropriate high voltage transformers. In addition to the analog transducer signals, the system incorporates the following digital inputs: – Hydroset pump contactor status signals that tell the system that the pump motor is pumping the mainshaft up or down. – An overload protector signal that trips out if the Hydroset pump motor is overloaded. and the following digital outputs: – A signal to other equipment that the crusher is able to receive feed material. – Hydroset pump contactor control signals. The contactors open and close to provide power to the pump motor that moves the mainshaft (and the mantle) up and down. – An alarm signal that indicates that the system has detected an alarm condition. All of the digital signals are routed through a third distributed I/O unit in the L3 cabinet and forwarded to or sent from the control unit via the ASRi bus.

1. Introduction

1.3.2 Hydroset pressure definitions All Sandvik cone crushers with a Hydroset system have the mainshaft assembly supported by a Hydroset piston. The oil beneath the piston is under pressure. This Hydroset pressure is a direct indicator of the crushing force inside the crushing chamber. The crushing force in a cone crusher with a Hydroset system can thus be measured at any crusher load level.

1 Peak Hydroset pressure 2 Average peak Hydroset pressure 3 Average Hydroset pressure

The ASRi uses a measurement principle that permits observation of cyclic variations in Hydroset pressure caused by an uneven feed, segregation, and packing, etc. The ASRi system uses this information to analyse the operating conditions by mathematically processing the pressure signal, providing a value called the average peak Hydroset pressure (2). The Hydroset pressure setpoint is set in accordance with the average peak Hydroset pressure, thus the crusher can generally be run with higher average Hydroset pressure (3) than would otherwise be possible. The ASRi displays the amplitude of the Hydroset pressure variations. This is done with a sector in the Hydroset pressure indicator in the main picture, see also section 4.2.2 Hydroset pressure indicator. The wider the sector shown in the Hydroset pressure indicator, the larger the amplitude of the pressure variations. Ideally, the sector should be reduced to a single line, which would correspond to a constant Hydroset pressure throughout the revolution of the eccentric. In practice, there are often variations in the crushing pressure around the crushing chamber and this shows up as a sector in the Hydroset pressure indicator. The Hydroset pressure can also be studied in the History: Pressure picture, see section 7.1.2 Pressure. These pictures can be used to analyse the crusher’s operating conditions and thus help to optimize the performance of the machine.

1. Introduction

1.4 Information levels The ASRi system has four different information levels: • Operation • Installation • Service • Regulation Operation The operation level allows the user to control the main functions of the ASRi such as start and stop of regulation, set-up of regulation modes, positioning of the mainshaft, selection of crushing programs, editing of crushing programs, CSS range calibration, and set-up of the display. Operators can view, but not necessarily edit, all information on the different pictures of the ASRi. It is possible to set up password protection of the edit crushing program function during installation of the ASRi. In such a case, operators can only edit the crushing programs if they are authorized. Service The service level is used for maintenance of the ASRi system, such as checking connections and signals. Installation The installation level is mostly used during installation and set-up of the ASRi. It allows the access holder to configure the ASRi system with regard to units, A-dimension range set-up, crusher model, and crusher settings. Regulation The regulation level is restricted to Sandvik and personnel with detailed knowledge of the plant, the crusher, and the ASRi system since these parameters will considerably change regulation and the performance of the system. The parameters on this level can be viewed by all users, but can only be changed by Sandvik personnel that have regulation (administrator) rights to the ASRi.

2. Safety precautions

2.4 Emissions Since Sandvik’s crushers are used for handling and/or processing of minerals or other materials which can give rise to health risks for human beings and animals, it is the responsibility of the user to follow the relevant rules and regulations intended to prevent health risks for example specific regulation applying to dust emission, asbestos, quartzite, radon etc.

2.4.1 Dust Health hazard Breathing or inhaling dust particles will cause death or severe injury. Always wear approved respirator. DANGER! Always work with a respirator approved by the respirator manufacturer for the job you are doing. It is essential that the respirator that you use protects you from the tiny dust particles which cause silicosis and which may cause other serious lung diseases. You should not use the equipment until you are sure your respirator is working properly. This means the respirator must be checked to make sure that it is clean, that its filter has been changed, and to otherwise make sure the respirator will protect you in the way it is meant to. Make sure the dust suppression system in your equipment is working properly. If the dust suppression system is not working properly, stop working immediately. Always make sure dust has been cleaned off your boots and clothes when you leave your shift. The smallest particles of dust are the most harmful. They may be so fine that you can not see them. Remember, you must protect yourself from the danger of breathing or inhaling dust.

Sandvik SRP AB strongly recommends using additional equipment for dust control. Examples are dust extraction (vacuum) and dust suppression by water spray or foam. Such equipment is not included in the crusher’s standard specification. Sandvik SRP AB declines all responsibility for any health hazards caused by dust, generated when processing minerals in the crusher.

4.3 Calibration The CSS calibration procedure is needed to obtain the null-position for the CSS measurement. The term CSS, Closed Side Setting, refers to the discharge setting at the closed side of the crushing chamber, that is the spot in the crushing chamber where the gap between the crushing surfaces is the smallest. As the liners wear, the real CSS increases in relation to the value indicated by the ASRi. The required calibration frequency normally depends on the rate at which the crushing liners wear. A more abrasive stone type will require more frequent calibrations, whereas a non-abrasive material will require only occasional calibrations. There are two different calibration methods: – metal-to-metal calibration – calibration with lead Metal-to-metal calibration is the easiest way to calibrate a crusher. This method is the one generally used with H-type cone crushers. We recommend regular inspection of the concave ring to make sure that it has not been worn unevenly or has become oval. One consequence of oval concave rings is that it is much more difficult to measure the CSS. NOTE!

If uneven wear is suspected, check the CSS with lead at 4 points around the crushing chamber. See the cone crusher Operator’s manual for further information. You should also look for any localized wear or other damage in the crushing chamber. If the crushing liners are worn, you cannot raise the mantle (on the mainshaft) so high that it comes into contact with the concave ring without risking that the head nut comes into contact with the underside of the crusher’s spider hub. The risk of this occurring appears relatively early in the case of a coarse crushing chamber that operates with a large CSS. The ASRi system prevents further upward movement of the mainshaft if the A-dimension is reduced below the minimum value for the crusher1. The system will then automatically switch to calibration with lead. For more information about CSS and A-dimension, see section 4.3 Calibration and A-dimension range set-up in the Installation manual as well as the cone crusher Operator’s manual.

1. The minimum A-dimension is 15 mm for cone crushers CH420–CH660, and 25 mm for cone crushers CH870– CH880 and S-type crushers. This data i subsequent to model changes and may be changed without further notice. Always refer to the crusher manual for machine specific data.

4.3.1 Calibration: metal-to-metal During the metal-to-metal calibration procedure the ASRi system raises the mainshaft until metal-to-metal contact is achieved, at which time the system saves this position as the new CSS zero, and then lowers the mainshaft to restore the CSS to the previous value. The crusher calibration procedure has then been completed.

If the feed arrangement is not interlocked with the ASRi, the operator has to stop the feed to the crusher.

Start Crusher If the crusher's drive motor has not been started, you must start the motor. The ASRi will automatically detect this and continue with the calibration procedure. If you desire to accomplish the calibration procedure while the motor is not running, you can press the [Disregard] button and then the [Continue] button to continue. If the crusher is loaded again, the system will make 3 attempts to proceed with the calibration procedure before it is automatically interrupted. This is indicated by an error message: “Crusher load too high, terminating”. In this case, press the [OK] button to cancel the procedure. Waiting for metal-to-metal contact The ASRi system raises the mainshaft to reach the metal-to-metal position. If the mainshaft is raised so high that the A-dimension becomes smaller than the minimum permitted A-dimension, the picture indicates that the system is switching to calibration with lead. Accept this by pressing the [OK] button, or terminate the calibration procedure by pressing the [Cancel] button. If the system indicates that the switch from metal-to-metal calibration to calibration with lead was unsuccessful, the calibration procedure is terminated and the message “Error, terminating” appears on the picture. Press the [OK] button to acknowledge. Try carrying out calibration with the lead procedure by following the instructions in section 4.3.2 Calibration: with lead. Metal-to-metal position detected, restoring CSS The ASRi system has detected that the mainshaft cannot be raised further. If the pressure is too high, the calibration procedure is halted and the message “Pressure too high, terminating” appears. Press the [OK] button to acknowledge. The ASRi repositions the mainshaft to its previous position. (Continued)

Initial CSS factor With a coarse crushing chamber, there is sometimes a risk of overloading the crusher when feeding starts. In such a case it can be a good idea to choose an Initial CSS factor greater than 1. The CSS will be greater than the desired operating CSS when the feed to the crusher starts and will then slowly decrease towards the desired operating CSS setpoint. In other cases – with a fine crushing chamber, for example – it may be difficult to fill the crushing chamber when the feed is started. In such a case it can be a good idea to choose an Initial CSS factor smaller than 1. The CSS will be smaller than the desired operating CSS when the feed to the crusher starts and will then slowly increase towards the desired operating CSS setpoint. The starting CSS is normally calculated automatically by the ASRi system, but can also be set manually during the installation set-up, see Crusher settings in the Installation manual. The initial CSS setpoint is calculated as the product of the initial CSS factor, which can lie between 0.5 and 2.5, multiplied with the CSS setpoint. Removing programs Existing programs can be removed. j)

Deselect the regulation mode by pressing the corresponding button, [Auto-CSS], [Multi-CSS], or [Auto-Load]. k) Press the [Save] button.

4.4.2 Edit Program If the crusher is to be operated in an automatic regulation mode, one or more crushing program(s) must first be configured. NOTE!

4.4.4 Auto-CSS regulation mode During Auto-CSS regulation, the ASRi system aims to maintain the desired CSS. The crusher's setting will never go below this CSS setpoint during normal crushing operation, but can exceed the CSS setpoint if the power draw or the Hydroset pressure is excessive. When Auto-CSS regulation is started, the mainshaft is moved to its initial CSS setpoint before feeding is permitted. Once the initial CSS setpoint has been reached, and as soon as the ASRi detects that the crusher is loaded, the automatic regulation will try to reach the CSS setpoint. In a program using Auto-CSS regulation, the following parameters must be set: •

•

CSS Setpoint: The desired operating CSS. The CCS range available depends on the crusher’s size and the wear of the mantle. The maximum CSS cannot be larger than what it is when the mainshaft is in its bottom position. Initial CSS factor: The factor to be multiplied by the CSS setpoint in order to obtain the Initial CSS setpoint.

The following parameter is automatically calculated by the system: • CAUTION!

Initial CSS setpoint: The CSS setpoint to be reached before the feed starts.

The feed to the crusher must be interlocked with the ASRi system, or else the crusher is not protected by the system.

4. Main picture To set up an Auto-CSS regulation program, follow this sequence: a) Set the desired CSS value in the CSS setpoint field. b) The system checks that the CSS setpoint you enter is not out of range. If it is, the display indicates this in red and you must adjust the invalid CSS setpoint value. c) Set the initial CSS factor in the Initial CSS factor field. The product of the initial CSS factor and the CSS setpoint will result in the Initial CSS setpoint.

4.4.5 Multi-CSS regulation mode During Multi-CSS regulation, two different product curves can be combined to give a new desired product. This is accomplished by the ASRi system cyclically switching between two different settings—CSS setpoint 1 and CSS setpoint 2. You also define the time share between the two settings. For example, a smaller CSS can be selected in the CSS Setpoint 1 field. The resulting crusher product might contain sufficient fines material while there is a shortfall in coarse material. Coarse material can be produced by entering a CSS value in the Setpoint 2 field that is larger than CSS Setpoint 1. The crusher could, for example, operate at CSS Setpoint 1 for 60% of the time and at CSS Setpoint 2 for 40% of the time. This cycle is constantly repeated and completely automatic. The result is two different product curves that are delivered one after the other on the crusher's discharge conveyor. However, after a few transition chutes the material, that reaches the stockpile or storage bin, will have a single average grading and contain both the fines and the coarse material. In a program using Multi-CSS regulation, the following parameters must be set: • •

• •

© 2009 Sandvik SRP AB

CSS setpoint 1: The first desired operating CSS. CSS setpoint 2: The second desired operating CSS. The CCS range available depends on the crusher’s size and the wear of the mantle. The maximum CSS cannot be larger than what it is when the mainshaft is in its bottom position Time-share (%): The operating time share between the two CSS setpoints. Initial CSS factor: The desired factor to be multiplied with the CSS setpoint in order to provide the Initial CSS setpoint. (Continued)

4.4.6 Auto-Load regulation mode During Auto-load regulation, the ASRi system regulates the setting so that the crusher operates at a desired load level. The system will decrease the CSS until either the power setpoint or the pressure setpoint is reached. The system will keep the crusher loaded to that setpoint from there on. If the desired highest permitted load level is selected, the CSS will always be the smallest possible and this will result in maximum reduction. With Auto-Load regulation there is automatic compensation for liner wear, which means that the intervals between calibrations can be fairly long. In a program using Auto-Load regulation, the following parameters must be set: •

Power setpoint: The nominal drive motor power draw set in the crushing program in question. • Pressure setpoint: The highest average peak Hydroset pressure set in the crushing program in question. • Min CSS: The smallest permitted CSS in the crushing program in question. • Initial CSS factor: The desired factor to be multiplied with the CSS setpoint in order to provide the Initial CSS setpoint. The following parameter is automatically calculated by the system: • CAUTION!

Initial CSS setpoint: The CSS setpoint to be reached before the feed starts.

The feed to the crusher must be interlocked with the ASRi system, or else the crusher is not protected by the system.

By measuring the A-dimension at which the liners come in contact with each other during metal-to-metal calibration • By calculating the A-dimension at which the liners would theoretically come into contact with each other—if it were possible—during calibration with lead. A-dimension indicator At the left hand side there is an A-dimension indicator that shows the relative positions of the mainshaft. The indicator also shows the minimum permitted A-dimension at the top and the maximum permitted A-dimension at the bottom. The maximum permitted A-dimension, corresponding to the lowest position of the mainshaft, is set 2 mm from the absolute bottom position. This is to avoid the risk of running the Hydroset pump dry. •

6. Alarms This section describes the alarm functions of the ASRi and it is intended to assist maintenance personnel in troubleshooting the system. It is not intended that personnel with an Operator’s work role should carry out corrective actions. The Operator’s responsibility is to identify the fault or error and report to a supervisor. The supervisor decides on the appropriate action.

6.1 Alarms The ASRi system incorporates a general alarm system which monitors a number of analog and digital signals. Some of the signals come from transducers and some are values that are calculated internally by the computer. In addition, the system monitors so-called internal system variables, e.g. repeated loss of communication with I/O units. The two different Alarm pictures can be opened by pressing the [Alarm] button in the menu bar, and then the corresponding button for the desired picture in the pop-up menu. The Alarm list and the Alarm log have the same basic appearance.

6.1.1 Alarm severity levels When an alarm is active, the Status bar and the Alarm button in the menu bar flash in red. There are three degrees of severity for ASRi alarms: A, B, and C alarms. •

An A-alarm is the most serious type of alarm. An A-alarm will immediately stop regulation and will also stop the feed to the crusher if the feed interlock output from the ASRi system is used. If the feed interlock is not connected, the feed must be stopped in some other way. Regulation cannot be restarted until the fault has been corrected. • A B-alarm results in a feed shut-down, if the feed interlock output from the ASRi system is used, but regulation continues while the fault persists. When the fault has been corrected, the feed is restarted and regulation continues as before. • A C-alarm is a warning that indicates that an undesirable condition has been reached. These conditions are not harmful to the machine and neither regulation nor feed are interrupted. Alarms that are no longer active but have not yet been acknowledged are indicted with grey alarm icons in the Alarm log. See section 6.1.5 A-alarms, section 6.1.6 B-alarms, and section 6.1.7 C-alarms for more information on each alarm.

The operator has not yet acknowledged the fault, which is indicated in the Alarm list and the Alarm log by a framed yellow A, B, or C symbol. Active and acknowledged: The fault condition persists but the operator has acknowledged the alarm. The symbol is similar to the one for an active and unacknowledged alarm, but has a green check mark. Inactive and unacknowledged: There is currently no fault, but a fault has occurred previously, without the operator acknowledging it. This is indicated by a grey A or B symbol. Inactive and acknowledged: The fault has been acknowledged and is no longer active. This is indicated by a grey A, B, or C symbol with a green check mark. This symbol only occurs in the Alarm log.

All the different History pictures can be opened by pressing the [History] button in the menu bar, and then the corresponding button for the desired picture in the pop-up menu. The different History pictures look similar to each other and present information in trend curves. In the Motor power picture, the Pressure picture, the CSS picture, the Lubrication oil temperature picture, the A-dimension picture, and the Overview picture, the upper section of the trend curve frame displays the analog curves, and the lower section of the trend curve frame displays the digital signals (D1-D3). The system displays data in 10 s, 1 min, 10 min, 1 h, and 12 h windows. A smaller time window also means a shorter signal storage time. The selection of time window is made through buttons below the curve presentation frame: Press the [10 s] button to view the information in 10 second windows. The signal storage time for this view is approximately 1 hour. • Press the [1 min] button to view the information in 1 minute windows. The signal storage time for this view is approximately 1 hour. • Press the [10 min] button to view the information in 10 minute windows. The signal storage time for this view is approximately 24 hours. • Press the [1 h] button to view the information in 1 hour windows. The signal storage time for this view is approximately 1 week. • Press the [12 h] button to view the information in 12 hour windows. The signal storage time for this view is approximately 4 weeks. The storage times referred to above apply if the ASRi OP control cabinet is switched on around the clock. If the supply is switched off when the ASRi system is not in use, information can be stored for a longer period. •
