Feeder Calibration Overview

Introduction 

In order to validate that the feeder is meeting flow rate accuracy requirements, it is necessary to take material catch samples and compare them to the desired setpoint. If the accuracy is not within specifications you may have to perform a "span calibration". The objective of this procedure is to finely tune the weight reading to increase the accuracy of the feeder.

 Weight span calibration calibration overview overview Calibration frequency There is no set time frequency for performing this calibration. If you need to determine that the feeder meets your process accuracy requirements you will need to take actual catch samples and compare them to the desired setpoint. These catch samples samples may be multiple multiple timed samples compared compared to the setpoint or a single large sample of material compared to the displayed totalizer value on the KSU. We will show the concept of Run Charts as a method to help determine det ermine calibration frequency.  Calibration of weight span  If inaccuracies of the feeder system are determined by taking actual catch samples, a correction value is entered known as "weight span" found on the Scale menu and General scale sub-menu. The span value should range from .90 to 1.1. Calculated span span values outside outside this range range may indicate indicate additional system problems (in this case contact a maintenance technician).

The following procedures define the methods for performing these calibrations. Continued on next page

Feeder Calibration Introduction

This section shows you how to perform all of the calibration procedures that permit the feeder to reach its design performance. Tare calibration procedure

To tare the machine, please follow the next procedure.

Step 

Action  You should properly empty and clean the feeder. To empty the feeder:  a) Shut-off material flow onto the belt.

b) Select a setpoint. c) Select Emptying function in the New Material Menu, Menu, and press the enter key. 1 Note: The feeder will stop automatically when the Blt Empty Li is reached. Note: To stop the Emptying function, press the key

d) Clean the feeder. 

2

In the New Material Menu, select Static Tare and Press ENTER   twice. A static tare value will be accepted and it will be used to validate the dynamic belt tare that is used for running the machine. Press to exit.  While in the New Material Menu, select Belt Tare and press the Enter key twice. This starts the dynamic belt tare. The feeder will stop automatically when the dynamic belt tare t are is finished. 

3

Note: To stop the tare prior to completion, press the key If belt slip is enabled, the reference data for belt slip is calculated during the dynamic tare process.

This tare chart is used to record the static and/or dynamic tare values, i.e. the "Tare" parameter in the "Main Deck" sub-menu of the "Scale" menu. The calibration date is at the bottom. The start value is an average that is placed at the initial tare value to make it easy to plot subsequent values. It is recommended that the static tare values are written vertically in line with the point to which they relate. Add the points to this chart horizontally after every tare procedure (Static or Belt). The variance will define the normal process deviations that one expects. If a future tare

value falls outside this normal range, it may indicate a problem with the weighing system.

Feeder Calibration, continuedContinued  Introduction

You can use this simple approach to quickly check the flowrate of your feeder and verify its accuracy.  Weight Span Calibration by the Totalizer Totalizer method Use this procedure to verify the accuracy of the totalizer from the feeder. Any adjustments will be made to the Scale Weight Span on the Scale Menu, Main Deck Sub-Menu. 

Step 

Action 

1

The necessary material quantity for the material tests is determined as follows: n Accuracy to be achieved = e.g. 0.5 % n Resolution (measurement increment step) of the scale used for the check weighing (customer) = e.g. 20 Kg n The weighing accuracy of the check weigh scale must be 2 x higher n

than the accuracy to be achieved. Measurement increment step * 100 * 2 / accuracy to be achieved = necessary material quantity (batch size). In our example: 20 * 100 * 2 / 0.5 = 8000 Kg minimum  

2

Obviously, the more the material quantity exceeds the calculated value, the better the weighing accuracy. On the other hand, the min. material test time must not be less than 3 minutes, nor the time t ime required for the band to perform a complete revolution. 

3

If the material transport route after the weigh belt feeder includes equipment such as screw conveyors, belt conveyors, chutes etc., the dead zones of this equipment must be filled by operating the installation.

4

Prepare a container (truck), large enough to hold the material quantity calculated under point 1 

5

Weigh or detare the empty container. If it's a truck, weigh the empty truck, without the driver and take into account the distance between the check weigh scale (customer) and the material test site. A heavy duty truck consumes approx. 30 to 50 litres of fuel per hour. At a fuel density of 0.88kg/l, one hour of running already accounts for an error of 0.55% on a 8000kg batch.

6

Reset the KSU totalizer to zero. 

7

Make sure that the container is in place and that it's totally empty. 

8

Put the feeder in Gravimeteric mode by pressing the GRAV key. 

9

Select a setpoint between 20 and 100% of the nominal flowrate.

 Weight Span Calibration by the Totalizer Totalizer method, continued 

Step 

Action 

10

Start the machine until the desired batch size has been reached, then stop. 

11

12

Weigh the container. If it's a truck, weigh it without the driver and take into account the fuel consumption (see point 5).  Define the net material weight, subtracting the previously weighed empty weight from the now measured gross weight.   Read the totalizer = Totalizer KSU.  Calculate the new span setting from the following equation: New Span, (Scale Menu, Main Deck sub-menu) = = Current Span*( Container Weight/Totalizer Weight(KSU))

13

14

To confirm the calculated result, perform at least one more material test with the same setpoint and recalculate the error. 

15

If the 2nd error calculation differs considerably from the 1 st  result, make a 3rd material test. 

16 17

KSU/WBF.942.001-E.d

E.g.: Current span = 1.004, Container weight =9,900 kg, the totalizer reads 10,000 kg.  New span = 1.004 * ( 9900/10000) = 0.994 

Add up the samples and divide by the number of samples taken to get the average sample value.   Enter new span into in Scale Menu, General Scale submenu. 

18

You have calibrated the feeder. You can now run the feeder in production. 

19

Record the new span value on the Span Run Chart.

This chart is used to record the span values, i.e. the values of the "Span" parameter of the "Main Deck" sub-menu of the "Scale" menu. The calibration date is at the bottom. The start value is the reference value, i.e. 1.000. It is recommended that the span values are written vertically in line with the point to which they relate. Add the points horizontally to this chart after every span calibration procedure. The variance of span values will define the normal process deviations that one expects. If a future value falls outside this normal range, it may indicate a problem with the weighing system. The span target should be between 0.90 and 1.10.

New Material Menu Programming Introduction  The New Material Menu is helpful when the type of materials being fed is

changed frequently. The menu includes such parameters as Belt Load setpoint, etc.  New Material menu entries The table below defines the New Material Menu entries.

Entry 

Definition 

SETPOINT 

Absolute feeder setpoint if "Ratio" control mode is selected. 

MAX SETPT 

This is the maximum allowable mass flow setpoint to be entered. 

MAX LINE SP 

Maximum line setpoint displayed if this mode of operation is the selected. represents represents total of the flows of all feedersValue connected to thethe line. Used in fully analog line control. 

BELT LD SETPOINT  Nominal load on the feeder weigh deck per unit length (kg/m).  BELT LD 

This is the actual belt loading or weight of material on the belt per unit length of belt.  

EMPTYING 

Press ENT to empty the weigh belt The feeder will be automatically stopped when the " Blt Empty Lim" specified in the Mechanical Menu Machine Setup SubMenu is reached. This function assumes that the flow of material can be halted by the controller or manually. 

STATIC TARE 

Press ENT to perform a static tare of the empty belt. This function can only be executed before a dynamic tare of the empty belt, and is accepted without limits over the whole of the load cell measuring range.

To get an accurate static tare, the weigh belt must be clear of product and clean.

This entry selects the control mode for the controller.

The selections are available by pressing the key. The following options are available:  Local 

NEXT

 

Feeder's setpoint is programmed via the keypad. Setpoint is entered by pressing the NEW SP

 key. The following units are used: t/h, kg/h or %. Setpoint modification depends on the configuration of the SETP SRC and PROP SRC parameters in the CNTRL PT SETUP Sub-Menu. Ratio. 

The proportional setpoint value of the feeder in % is entered using the New SP key. The actual setpoint is displayed at the Feeder Overview Screen in the selected units.  Resulting operating setpoint setpoint * proportional setpoint. = absolute

Line1-Line8:  the feeder setpoint is given by the Host. The KSC Smart Commander can handle up to 8 lines. 

Setpoint modification depends on the configuration of the SETP SRC and PROP SRC parameters in the CNTRL PT SETUP Sub-Menu of the SYSTEM => SECURITY Menu.

Onln Cal Menu Programming Introduction

This section sets the Hasler feeder for OnLine calibration. This menu is only accessible if the Onln Cal options have been selected in the Mechanical Menu Options Sub-Menu.  Onln Cal menu entries

Entry 

Definition 

START OLC 

Select this variable and press twice on the ENT key to run on line calibration. 

STOP OLC 

Select this variable and press twice on the ENT key to stop on line calibration.  This is the quantity of material needed (fed) to do the On Line Calibration. This value is expressed in % of Hopper_Nominal_Weight.  This is the quantity of material totalized during the automatic calibration sequence. This is the amount of material which must remain in the hopper at any time to ensure acceptable performance of the downstream prefeeding device.  This entry is the time needed to the weight in the hopper to stabilize after the inlet closes.  This is the period –in seconds-which the calibration process runs when the Start OLC is set.   Error calculated during the last calibration cycle. This value is the 1 – ratio delta hopper weight (OLC_Start_Weight – actual Hopper_Weight) divided by OLC_Tot.  This indicates the deviation of the actual weight indication used for the belt feeder process.  This is the cumulated correction of all subsequent On_Line_Calibration.

Definition 

MF ERR+

This parameter sets the maximum allowable deviation of massflow from setpoint before an alarm occurs. The default value is 10%. 

MF ERR-- 

This parameter sets the minimum allowable deviation of massflow from setpoint before an alarm occurs. The default value is -10%. 

LO BELT LD 

Minimum deviation of the actual load on the belt relative to the nominal load of material on the belt.  

HI BELT LD 

MAXIMUM deviation of the actual load on the belt

DC ALRM+ 

relative to the nominal load of material on the belt.   If the Drive Command signal exceeds this value, an alarm occurs. The default value is 100%.

This menu is used to configure the LON network, address an SCM and connect variables to functions and is generally used for troubleshooting. SmartConnex LON IO setup utility software is recommended for settingup a LON network

Entry 

Definition 

FIND NODES 

This is a function that will scan the LON network for un-configured (zero addressed) nodes. When a new node is found, its type is displayed in the NODE TYPE parameter. If a new node is found, a command is automatically sent to force the node to identify itself. This command may be repeated as much as needed to force the command to be executed. 

Note: A node that is added to the LON network will be forced to an address of “0”.  NODE TYPE 

This is a string that displays the type of the node that was found. If no node was found, “None” will be displayed. 

DEST ADDR 

This is an integer that is the destination address of the last node found. When FIND NODES locates a zero addressed node, entering a nonzero number here will assign that address to the new node.  

 WINK ADDR. 

If you enter the address of a node on the network, a wink command will be sent to that node. This function is used to check the index of the node to be found by flashing the red LED on the LON node for a few seconds. This does not work for zero addressed nodes. If you want to wink the next zero addressed (unconfigured) node, use the FIND NODES command

UNBIND ADDR  Disconnects all variables from a given device address.

Entry 

REMV ADDR 

Definition  If you wish to remove an addressed node from the system, simply enter it’s address here and the node will be disconnected and removed (LON device address reset to zero). If you do a FIND FIND NODES command after removing a node, you will find the newly removed node at address “0”. The device can now be removed physically from the LON network. To complete the process, set the REMV ADDR to “0” and press ENT. Note: Before you can remove a node, it must be unbound.

REPL ADDR 

Assigns a dead node address to a newly installed LON device. 

LAST RESULT  This string contains the result of the last function invoked. It will be set to “OK” if everything executed normally, otherwise an error message will be displayed. di splayed.  BINDING

BIND VAR 2 

See above. 

BIND NOW  

This function binds the variables described in the BIND VAR and BIND ADDR parameters. 

UNBIND NOW  

This function unbinds the variables described in the BIND VAR and BIND ADDR parameters. Since unbinding actually only requires that one end be described, it is sufficient to enter only one end of a binding in the BIND ADDR 1 and BIND VAR 1 parameters before invoking this function.
