Control Unit: Electronic Control Unit
built 627 days ago
The 466 Electronic Control Unit controls the supply of compressed gas to pneumatic pumps including the Integra Bladder Pumps and Double Valve Pumps. The Control Unit uses simple, preset sample modes to allow easy selection of the desired sample rate, with controls for further finetuning. The sampling rates may be selected to ensure a representative low-flow sample at 100 ml/min or less. Higher flow rates for purging may ... be chosen. The Electronic Control Unit is available in 160 psi and 250 psi models. The Controller uses 8 AA batteries, that allow continuous operation for up to 30 hours, and can be easily replaced in the field.

The Control Unit connects to the track with another brown wire and a red wire (labeled "B"). Extreme care needs to be taken so the wires are attached correctly and that they are connected when the power is off. Always unplug the transformer or turn its power off if you have it connected to an outlet box with an on/off switch. Computer electronics are very sensitive and switching wire with the power on can cause damage. The wire connectors at the back of the Control Unit are colored to match the wire that connect them to either the transformer or the track. The small red LED on the upper right of the black plastic facing of the Control Unit will light up when the unit is attached correctly to the transformer and power is turned on.

Control unit - [E]lectronic unit at the control which transfers it’s identity code to the e-card when the e-card is placed on the control unit. Control codes from 31 to 176 (exept 66, 68, 86, 89, 98, 99) exist. As part of the back-up system each control unit is equipped whith a small spike which will place a mark in the back-up label. 140 spike positions exist each corresponding to the electronic code. This way it is ... possible manually to check that the runner has been to all the right controls. The control unit has a sealed in battery with a capasity to last 8 - 10 years*1.

Hella's electronic products that help reduce CO(2) emissions include: -- Demand-driven fuel pumps with Hella's intelligent control unit regulate pump power based on engine requirements, thereby reducing the electrical system load by up to 100 watts. This results in a savings of 0.5 grams of CO(2) per mile. -- Hella's Intelligent Battery Sensor, a key element of energy management, regulates electrical energy generation, as well as its distribution and storage. It can save approximately 2.4 grams of CO(2) per mile. -- Hella's fuel-quality sensor can eliminate emissions of up to 30 grams of CO(2) per vehicle start. The sensor ensures that gasoline or diesel is injected only as is needed to start the engine.

Essentially the “brain” of the hybrid system, the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) manages the power flow between the generator, battery and motor. By constantly monitoring various driving conditions, the ECU allows the transmission to get optimal power and fuel consumption from the powertrain.

An elongated, enclosed oval, the control unit is a modern electronic cinderblock-steel-plexiglass dungeon of 96 cells divided into 8 12-cell pods. The solid steel cell door has a hinged wicket for access to food at a height for a man to back up to have his hands manacled. You never leave the cell without hands cuffed behind your back, the cuffs often at the end of a leash.
