1. Features and Application Possibilities (Overview)
The Control Center is a fully-featured, easy to use, microprocessor-based control
unit. Especially designed for the heating and air conditioning of commercial
passenger buses, it enables an economical control of the temperature and air flow for
the driver and, to a lesser extent, also for the passengers. It has the installation
format of an auto radio.
The unit is easy to operate, using keys and three rotatable knobs (rotary switch,
rotary potentiometer). Different operational conditions of the heating and cooling
system of the passenger bus are shown using a display (digital) and light-emitting
diodes (LED).
The Control Center is offered in three variations, which are differentiated by the
extensiveness of the controllable capabilities.
Control Center 3 offers the largest range of capability, and is characterized by the
following features:
- Outputs for the activation of the front box flaps as well as for the control of a front
box valve (driver's area heater), a front box blower, a fresh air / circulation air flap, a
cooling unit, a unit in the passenger area roof (for example, blower), a unit in the
passenger area floor (for example, heater), a supplementary heater, and a
supplementary water pump.
- Real-time clock and programmable time-switch for the supplementary heater.
- Display of the operational condition of the supplementary heater, the cooling unit
and the unit in the passenger area roof and floor by means of light-emitting diodes,
or on the display.
- System check and error message.
Control Center 2 does not have an output for the control of a cooling unit. Control
Center 1 does not offer control of the cooling unit, the supplementary heater and the
unit in the passenger area roof, or the real-time clock and the time-switch.
With Control Center 1, the unit in the passenger area floor can only be switched on or
off. Control Center 2 and 3 offer two switch levels (for example, two heat levels).
To ensure that the Control Center functions faultlessly and has a long life, the user
must observe the instructions in this user's manual, and pay attention to the usage
conditions and the allowable data according to the data sheet. Installation and
maintenance personnel must have been trained and authorized to carry out such
activities.
Appropriate measures must be taken to prevent unintended or improper use of the
Control Center, and the resulting detrimental influences on the process. After an
interruption, a defined and controlled restart of the system, as described in the user's
manual, must be carried out.
Secure electrical and fluid isolation devices must be used when the system is being
repaired. Control Center repairs may only be carried out by authorized Bürkert
technicians.
3. Installing the Control Center
The Control Center has the installation format of an auto radio and can be built into
the dashboard without tools, using a mounting frame. It is pushed, together with the
mounting frame, into the installation shaft which is provided for this purpose, and
locks itself in.
Release levers are used to dismount the system, the same as are used for auto
radios. They are entered into the drill holes on the side, until they release the lock.
The Control Center is then pulled out of the installation shaft with the release levers.
External dimension of housing ( W x H x D )174 mm x 51 mm x 79 mm
External dimension of front panel ( W x H x D)188 mm x 58 mm x 8 mm
Total depth of system with plug strip 87 mm
Figure 1 shows the backside of Control Center 1 with the plug area (right) and the
symbol list for the pins (left). The plug holds pins 1 to 36. The symbols for the
individual pins correspond fully with the symbols on the operating elements (see
Figure 7 and Figure 8). For further clarification, the plug wiring diagram is described
again in words in Figure 2.

Reverse polarity protection:
The supply inputs of the Control Center are permanently protected against reverse
polarity of ground and plus (up to +30 V DC).
Short circuit protection:
Terminals 35 and 36 (front box valve motor) are only protected against a short circuit
with ground, but not against a short circuit with +24 DC.
All of the other inputs and outputs of the Control Center are protected against a short
circuit with ground, as well as with plus (up to +30 V DC).

DIP-switch 1: Presettings for the passenger area roof unit
(passenger area blower or roof blower)
Setting on:passenger area blower will be automatically switched on when
the motor is switched on, and when the motor is switched off, the
blower will also switch off. The blowers can additionally be
switched on and off with the appropriate key.
Setting off:passenger area blower will not be automatically switched on.
DIP-switch 2: Presettings for the blower level 1
Setting on:front box blower level 1 will, in Ignition off, be switched on by the
time-switch 20 min. after the supplementary heater is switched on,
and switched off again after a further 20 min.
Setting off:front box blower level 1 will not be automatically switched on.
The location of the two DIP-switches in the Control Center can be seen in Figure 3.
The DIP-switches must be set before connecting to the power supply.
