Tool Configuration
On the Home view, go to the Configurations > Tool Configuration to configure the available functions in the system.
Enter a name in the Name field.
Edit a configuration by clicking on the Edit button. See the table below.
To create additional configuration with different settings, click on the plus icon at the top of the page.
For example, create a configuration with Automatic pressure release = ON, or Pump motor timeout with different time.To choose a configuration to use, go to the Home view, Tensioner Controller > Tool.
Parameter | Default value | Unit | Description | Comment |
---|---|---|---|---|
Pump motor time-out | 30 | s | Timer for pump motor cooldown, also controlling the hydraulic oil return valve. The pump motor stops when the timer expires and the hydraulic return valve closes. When pressure is released, the hydraulic oil return valve is opened and the motor runs for 6 seconds. Then the pump motor time-out starts and when it expires, the valve is closed and the motor stops. | When the system is used in warm conditions, the hydraulic oil may overheat if the motor stops. For larger tensioners, the transport of hydraulic oil back to the pump oil container may need more than the minimum time of 6 seconds. |
Automatic pressure release | OFF | When the automatic pressure release is ON, the pressure is automatically released when the nut is tightened according to settings - the tensioning is completed. | The pressure is released when the torque is relaxed after being applied for the required torque and the required time. See the Diagram of the tensioning process in the section Tensioning Process. Recommended setting for this parameter is ON for the following reasons:
