10.1.14 Process Monitoring
Unfortunately leakages in hot runner and hence resulting overmolding could not always be avoided. They
could be caused by construction or production faults or by incorrect installation, leading at last to production
breakdown and expensive repair.
The function leakage detection identifies an upcoming leakage at an early stage, quickly and reliably by
intelligent analysis of the process parameters.
When the function process monitoring is running, in case of fault, i.e. exceeding the tolerance limit, an alarm
is output, that is displayed in the information display as „PAL“ (see chapter 10.2.1.3). The alarm can be
output on an output and be used for further analysis e.g. as „Stop Machine“. The alarm message (see
chapter 9.2) can be acknowledged, as soon as the control characteristic returns to normal (error fixed),
otherwise the alarm is activated immediately again.
Reference for function process monitoring concerning series and multi loop controller types
Series HR, HRD, HRS and multi loop controllers of type sysTemp ® ETR 132 II and
sysTemp ® ETS 132 II:
The control of the function process monitoring results from the parameter tolerance of
process monitoring PTOL only.
The parameter tolerance of process monitoring PTOL is available for each zone. The
parameter determines the variation of control characteristic in percentage. The setting
range of the parameter lies between 0…100.
0 means, that the function process monitoring is deactivated.
The parameter can be set by the operator.
See menu bar Edit – Parameter – Status – Tolerance of process monitoring
(details on data entry see chapter 6).
Series TEMP-Command and multi loop controllers of type flexotemp ® MCU/PCU
(firmware version >= kk2209z):
Call by
. Process monitoring mode PMOD = 0…3
Series TEMP-Command and multi loop controllers of type flexotemp ® MCU/PCU
(firmware version < kk2209z):
Call by
. Process monitoring mode PMOD = 1, without learning phase
The key
for the function call is only displayed in the operator interface, when
• the series TEMP-Command and multi loop controllers of type flexotemp ®
MCU/PCU are concerned
• all checks (e.g. for HEX file version) were executed successfully by TEMP-Soft
• the function is enabled by the user administration (see chapter 10.5.1)
