Installation overview

CALMS – Compressed Air Energy Management System – Process Diagram

Installation

It is recommended that installation and commissioning be carried out by an authorized and trained product supplier.

Unit location

The CALMS CAL-EDGE-X  can be mounted on a wall or on DIN rail (DIN rail accessory must be ordered separately). The CALMS CAL-EDGE-X  can be located remotely from the compressors and other connected equipment. Do not install device in highly dusty environment.

Pressure sensor mounting location

The system pressure sensor (P) must be located where it will see the air pressure that is common to all of the compressors. It can be

installed in a receiver tank or in a common discharge air header, as long as either one serves all the sequenced compressors installed. In either location, mount the transducer with a drip leg (recommended) and isolation valve to allow for easier installation, calibration and repairs.

Figure 2: Two options (A and B) of pressure transmitter mounting location

Wet and dry side pressure sensor mounting location

If you want to make a complete audit install two pressure transmitters: one located on the wet side and one on the dry side. Dry side pressure will be lower than the wet side pressure due to pressure differential losses across air treatment equipment. The nominal system pressure will reduce as the air treatment differential pressure increases.

Figure 3: Supply (wet) side pressure location

Figure 4: Demand (dry) side pressure location

Ensure each compressor is equipped with independent excess pressure shutdown. An increase in pressure differential across air treatment equipment can result in excess compressor discharge pressure.

Regular routine monitoring of pressure differential across air treatment equipment is recommended. You can obtain this with permanent monitoring of your pressure differential across air treatment equipment.

Terminals description

In this section is discussed what are the terminals of the CAL-EDGE-X device.

CAL-EDGE-0 front side

Figure 5: CAL-EDGE-0 (front side)

  • LAN: LAN port is used to connect CAL-EDGE-0 device to any other TCP/IP protocol capable device (MODBUS, ADS, OPC UA,…). This port is also used to connect device on internet when communication through mobile network is not working.

NOTE: If we want to connect device to internet through LAN port, a DHCP server must be installed in the network;

NOTE: Device is in normal condition when STATUS LED is orange;

NOTE: Be careful when wiring sensors to device. Improper connection may lead to device damage;

CAL-EDGE-0 rear side

Figure 6: CAL-EDGE-0 (rear side)

NOTE: Mount antenna on the place with best signal reception possible;

CAL-EDGE-8 front side

Figure 7: CAL-EDGE-8 (front side)

NOTE: If we want to connect device to internet through LAN port, a DHCP server must be installed in the network;

NOTE: Mount antenna on the place with best signal reception possible;

NOTE: Always make sure to screw plug to the header to avoid unintentional disconnection!

NOTE: Device is in normal condition when both LEDS’s are GREEN;

NOTE: Be careful when wiring sensors to device. Improper connection may lead to device damage.

NOTE: Always make sure to screw plug to the header to avoid unintentional disconnection!

CAL EDGE-8 rear side

Figure 8: CAL-EDGE-8 (rear side)

NOTE: When using open-end cables (CAB-SENSOR) double check the connection. Improper connection can damage the device!

NOTE: Power supply voltage also powers connected sensors (choose input voltage required by sensors; commonly that is 24VDC).

Electrical connections

Power supply connection

CAL-EDGE-X device needs 9-24VDC power supply for operation (internal electronics can operate at any voltage within specified range). Power supply voltage also powers connected sensors (choose input voltage required by sensors; commonly that is 24VDC). Connect power supply to labelled terminals ( watch the polarity ) on screw-type phoenix connector.

NOTE: Power supply 24VDC/50W is shipped together with CAL-EDGE device.

NOTE: For CAL-EDGE-8 use input voltage required by used sensors. Commonly that is 24VDC

Figure 11: Power supply wiring (CAL-EDGE-8)

Antenna connection

Connect antenna to ANT 1 terminal. Antenna is supplied together with CAL-EDGE device. Always position antenna to get best signal reception. Same antenna for CAL-EDGE-0 and CAL-EDGE-8 can be used.

Analog 4 20m a sensors connection

Analog sensors are connected to 4-pin solder type connectors. Connectors are internally wired to 18-bit resolution analog card. Sensor can be supplied through connector, because each connector is internally wired to power supply (24VDC).

Electrical connection

  • wire 2: White: 0vdc
  • wire 3: Yellow: 4-20mA signal in
  • wire 4: Green: not used

Accessories

Accessories are used for easier installation of the sensors. We offer extension cables for analog connectors (CAB-AI) and we offer open-end cables (CAB-SENSOR) that are used to connect custom sensors. All sensors that are ordered from us will be shipped with connector already mounted.

NOTE: When using open-end connector (CAB-SENSOR) double check the wiring schematic. Improper connection may damage the CAL-EDGE device.

Rs485 fieldbus connection

CAL-EDGE-X device has one standard RS485 2-wire input. Optionally another two RS485 inputs can be added. Supported protocol is MODBUS RTU. Always use appropriate cable (Belden 9841 or equivalent).

Electrical connection

Figure 15: RS485 wiring scheme (CAL-EDGE-8)

Figure 16: MODBUS RTU wiring scheme (CAL-EDGE-0)

Ethernet fieldbus connection

CAL-EDGE-X has one standard RJ45 port used to implement TCP/IP connection. Supported protocol so far are: MODBUS TCP/IP, ADS, OPC UA. CAL-EDGE-X device has configured fixed IP(192.168.0.102) in case there are not any DHCP servers in the network. If DHCP server is present in the network CAL-EDGE-X device will obtain IP from DHCP server.

This port can also be used to connect device to the internet in case of 4G modem failure or low signal strength.

Electrical connection

Figure 17: MODBUS TCP wiring scheme (CAL-EDGE-8 and CAL-EDGE-0)

Compressor connection

Each air compressor in your system must be interfaced to the CALMS CAL-EDGE-X . Compressor can be monitored through 1- phase current sensor or through power analyzer sensor to 4-20mA or MODBUS input. (8pin screw-type phoenix connector).

Start up procedure

To start using CAL-EDGE device a proper start-up procedure must be done:

  1. Modify the configuration file, using CALMS web application (check the CALMS web application user manual);
  2. Assign device to proper CALMS monitoring system (check the serial number at the bottom of the device);
  3. Add all channels on the CALMS monitoring system (check the configuration file to add proper CS box inputs);
  4. Connect antenna to ANT1 connector on the CAL-EDGE device;
  5. Connect all the analog sensors to the proper analog connector (A1-A8) on theCAL-EDGE-8 device;
  6. Connect all the MODBUS (RTU or TCP/IP) sensors to proper terminals on the CAL-EDGE-8 device;
  7. Plug in the power supply connector and screw the plug into the header in the CAL-EDGE device;
  8. After 10-20 seconds “ON” led (for CAL-EDGE-8) should turn green;
  9. After 5-10 minutes “COMM” led (for CAL-EDGE-8) should turn green;
  10. When the “COMM” led is on device downloads the configuration file from the CALMS web application. Device also checks each hour if configuration file has changed;
  11. Check the CALMS monitoring system if uploaded data is correct. Test sensors with manual measurements.
