Control System

Functional Description

The Control System consists of the A1 Control Board (Main Machine Controller) and the E1 Curtis 1210 Speed Controller.
The A1 Control Board controls the scrubbing and wastewater recovery functions based on Operator requests, and motion and direction inputs from the E1 Curtis 1210 Speed Controller. The A1 Control Board can store and display a variety of fault codes to inform the Operator of any machine fault conditions. The A1 Control Board also supports special modes of operation called the “Programming Mode” and the “Service Test Mode”. The Programming Mode is used primarily for “telling” the A1 Control Board how the machine is equipped so that it can operate accordingly. The Service Test Mode allows you to operate various machine components regardless of current inputs.
The E1 Curtis 1210 Speed Controller controls the drive motor that propels the machine based on Operator requests. (Refer to the Wheel System, Traction section for more information.)

Note: Frozenparametersareonlysavedfortherstcodethatis
set, not for any subsequent codes.
Eleven different machine parameters are logged, and all but the error code number and hour meter time are saved at 0.1 second intervals for the 12.8 seconds leading up to the time of the error code. This results in a total of 128 data points (one every 0.1 seconds) for each parameter. These data points are displayed in a second-level of submenus.
The rst-level ERROR CODE submenu displays the error code number (32 in this example). The rst-level HOUR METER submenu displays the time on the hour meter when the error code occurred (12:15 in this example). The other nine rst-level submenus are links to the next (second) layer of submenus that display the 128 data points corresponding to the functions listed on the submenus.

Electrical System

Functional Description

Overview

The electrical system consists of the switches, circuit breakers and contactors mounted on and underneath the control panel assembly, the 150-amp main fuse, on-board battery charger (if so equipped) and the batteries.
The electrical system is powered by two 12-volt or four 6-volt batteries for a total of 24 volts. Heavy cables connect the batteries in series. On machines without an on-board battery charger, a large red main battery pack connector is used for connecting the batteries to a “shelf” battery charger unit.
The control system will turn off the scrub system and recovery systems if the battery voltage drops too low to prevent damage to the batteries due to excessive discharging.
The circuit breakers and a 150-amp fuse protect various circuits from excessive current.
47Service Manual – SA40
The machine wiring is color coded, and the wires are marked corresponding to their location on the “Wiring
Harness Diagram” on page 57. (Wire W010 to the Brush
Contactor K2 is shown in this example.)
Page 48
Electrical System 48Service Manual – SA40

On-board Battery Charger

An optional on-board battery charger is mounted on the bottom of the machine.
Interlock Circuit
The battery charger has an “interlock circuit” which consists of an internal relay that interrupts the “Deadman” signal to the main control board, and the Keyswitch Input (KSI) signal to the drive speed controller when the charger is plugged into an AC power outlet. This prevents the machine from being propelled while the batteries are charging.
Here is how the battery charger interlock circuit works. The interlock relay contacts inside the charger are normally closed, allowing positive control voltage to be present in the Keyswitch, E-Stop, and Deadman circuit. When all switches are closed, positive voltage is applied to the enabling inputs of the A1 Control Board and the Speed Controller. When the AC power cord is plugged in, the relay is energized and opens the relay contacts opening the circuit.

Delta-Q Charging Proles and Charging Progress
The Delta-Q battery charger does not communicate with the main machine controller. It is a “stand-alone” unit. Models that have the Delta-Q charger have a separate LED to communicate charging progress. By pressing a button on the charger you can see what charging prole is in use. If you replace the batteries with a different type of battery or replace the battery charger, you must select the correct charging prole to be compatible with the batteries. There are a set of proles stored inside the charger. You can interface directly with the charger to select the prole to be used from that set. See the Delta-Q IC650 Product Manual (710-0138-Delta-Q.pdf) for complete instructions on selecting the prole. Use the Delta-Q Battery Charging Prole Table below to choose the prole to match the batteries that are in the machine.

Recovery System

Functional Description

The Recovery System pulls the wastewater from the squeegee and directs it into the recovery tank. The 24-volt, three-stage electric vacuum motor creates a vacuum in the recovery tank with sufcient airow to lift the used cleaning solution from the squeegee and into the vacuum hose assembly, which then directs the water into the recovery tank.
The Operator can select from two vacuum power levels – standard and quiet vacuum.
The Recovery System includes the Vacuum
Hose Assembly, Debris Cage, Recovery Tank, Vacuum Motor, Solid State Relay, Float Cage Assembly and Drain Hose.
The Vacuum Hose Assembly attaches to the squeegee assembly and directs the wastewater from the squeegee to the Debris
Cage and Recovery Tank.
The Vacuum Motor creates a vacuum inside of the Recovery Tank to pull the wastewater from the squeegee into the Recovery Tank.
The Float Cage Assembly contains two internal plastic oat balls that will rise to shut off the air intake to the Vacuum Motor if the wastewater level in the Recovery Tank gets too high. This is to prevent water from getting into the Vacuum Motor and possibly damaging the Vacuum Motor.
The Debris Cage inside the Recovery Tank catches any large debris or particulates to keep these materials out of the Recovery
Tank. The debris tray cover can be removed
to clean out the Debris Cage.
The Recovery Tank holds the wastewater picked up by the squeegee. Note that the
Recovery Tank is hinged at the rear and tips
back for access to the Vacuum Motor. The
Drain Hose is used to drain the wastewater
from the Recovery Tank.

The Solid State Relay (K1) controls the voltage to the Vacuum Motor. Note that the Solid State Relay has an LED that lights when the Relay is on.
Solid State
Relay (K1)
The Flyback Diode (D2) reduces the high­voltage spike through the Solid State Relay that can occur when the Vacuum Motor is switched off. The inductive nature of the motor can cause a large, reverse polarity voltage spike across the solid state relay. The yback diode permits this energy to be dissipated through the motor windings without

The following conditions must be met before the Vacuum Motor can start:
• There can be no major faults active.
• The machine must not be in a low-voltage condition.
• The Scrub System or vacuum mode must be activated (the Vacuum Mode Indicator will be on or ashing).
The A1 Control Board must have recently detected a motion signal from the E1 Curtis Speed Controller. (The
A1 Control Board will switch off the Vacuum Motor after a maximum 10 second delay once it loses the drive
signal from the E1 Curtis Speed Controller.)
When the Operator selects a drive direction and presses the go pedal:
The Brake - switch on Pin 6 in the E1 Curtis Speed Controller closes to ground. This drops the voltage on the Motion Input line on pin J3-6 from 24v down to nearly 0 volts to signal the A1 Control Board that the machine is now in motion.
The A1 Control Board switches the Vacuum Contactor line on pin J3-12 to battery ground to energize the
Solid State Relay (K1) and switch on the Vacuum Motor.
Note that the output from the Vacuum Contactor line on pin J3-12 drives the Solid State Relay at 100 Hz with either a 100% duty cycle for the high/standard vacuum mode, or a modulated (60%) duty cycle to provide an average of 16.8V to the Vacuum Motor in the low/quiet vacuum mode.

Bench-testing the Flyback Diode (bridge rectier)
When functioning properly, the yback diode should conduct only when the voltage gets reversed by the vacuum motor. To test the bridge rectier, use a DC continuity tester or an ohm meter (on the R x 100 scale) as follows. If any of the internal diodes are shown to be defective in any of the following steps the rectier must be replaced. (Refer to steps 8 and 9 for the correct mounting position and wire connections.)
Note that the positive tab on the Flyback Diode is rotated 90 degrees from the other three tabs.
1. Disconnect the two wires from the Flyback Diode.
Reverse Bias Test
In the reverse bias direction, none of the internal diodes should conduct.
2. Connect the negative test lead to the negative terminal on the rectier.
3. One at a time, touch the positive test lead to the remaining 3 terminals.
• If the meter beeps or reads continuity for any of the 3, then the rectier is defective.
• If the meter does not beep, continue with the next step.

Scrub System

Functional Description

The Scrub System includes the Scrub Deck, Brush or Pad Motor, Brush Motor Contactor (K2 relay) and Deck Actuator Assembly. A 24-volt electric motor powers the brush/pad.
The scrub deck has four vertical positions:
• The scrub deck is in the fully-retracted (up) position when the machine is in the transport mode (no
scrubbing or vacuuming).
• The vacuum-only position lowers the scrub deck so the attached squeegee contacts the oor, but the
brush/pad is raised slightly above the oor. This position is used for wet vacuuming of wastewater from the oor with no scrubbing.
• The “normal” scrub pressure position lowers the scrub deck so the brush/pad contacts the oor with
normal scrub pressure.
• The “extra” scrub pressure position lowers the scrub deck to its extension limit so the brush/pad contacts
the oor with greater than normal scrub pressure.
75Service Manual – SA40
The 20D Scrub Decks have a 20” brush plate assembly to accommodate a variety of disc brushes. The 20D models can also be used with several grades of pads by using the optional pad holder. The brush is driven by a Brush Motor connected to a 90-degree Gearbox.
20D Scrub Deck
Page 76

Scrub Deck and Motor

20D Scrub Deck
The 20D Scrub Decks use a horizontally-mounted Brush Motor with an integral gearbox to drive the
Brush Plate Assembly and attached Brush. The Brush Motor is fastened to
the Motor Spacer, which is bolted to the
Deck Lift Plate Weldment, Brush Housing
and Lower Deck Plate.
The Solution Solenoid Valve Assembly
controls the solution ow to the Brush.

Deck Actuator Assembly

The Deck Actuator Assembly uses an electric Motor to run a lead screw that extends and retracts the Tube and attached Plunger. The Plunger is connected to the Scrub Deck to raise and lower the Scrub Deck to any of four different positions:
• The fully-retracted (up) position is the Scrub Deck transport position
and is used when the Scrub and Recovery Systems are not active.
• Scrub Deck position 1 is the vacuum-only position. In this position the
Deck Actuator lowers the Scrub Deck just far enough for the squeegee to contact the oor to pick up wastewater with the Scrub, Solution and Detergent Systems off.
• Scrub Deck position 2 is the standard scrub pressure position.
• The fully-extended (down) position is the extra scrub pressure position.

Scrub Deck Actuator Adjustment

The Scrub Deck Actuator adjustment consists of setting the Tube position with the retracted travel limit switch actuated. To set the Scrub Deck Actuator position:
1. Drive the actuator motor to the up (fully retracted) position using the Service Test Mode or a jumper to the batteries.
2. Wait until the motor stops running due to the travel limit switch opening.
Note: Do not allow the Tube to bottom
out against the Motor Housing.
3. Manually rotate the Tube toward the Motor
Housing until it bottoms out, then back the Tube out at least one-half turn, but no more
than one full turn, in order to align the mounting holes.
Service Tip: Be careful not to
rotate the Tube prior to installing the Scrub
Deck Actuator into the
machine. This can cause the Scrub Deck
Actuator to get out of
adjustment.

Solution System

Functional Description

The Solution System is a gravity-feed system that supplies cleaning solution to the scrub brush/pad on the scrub deck. The Solution Solenoid Valve controls the solution ow to the scrub deck. The A1 Control Board sends a pulsed voltage signal to the Solution Solenoid Valve that opens and closes the Valve to regulate the solution ow according to the ow rate selected with the solution ow adjustment switch.
The Solution System includes the Solution Tank, Water Filter, Solution Solenoid Valve Assembly and associated valves and hoses.

Solution Tank, Water Filter and Valves

The Solution Tank holds
approximately 12 gallons [45 liters] of water/solution.
The Ball Valve controls the solution ow to the Water Filter and downstream Solution Hose
that is plumbed to the Solution Solenoid Valve.

The Water Filter can be
disassembled for cleaning.

Solution Solenoid Valve

The L1 Solution Solenoid Valve controls the solution ow to the scrub deck. The solution from the solution tank enters the L1
Solution Solenoid Valve through the side port and exits through the
rear port to the scrub deck as shown.
The two wires in the Electrical Connector get power from the key switch and pin J3-11 - Solution Solenoid on the A1 Control Board.
The A1 Control Board sends a modulated signal through Pin J3­11 to switch the L1 Solution Solenoid Valve to ground and open the
L1 Solution Solenoid Valve for a period of time corresponding to the
selected solution ow rate. The period of time during which the solution solenoid is energized (open) is referred to as the “duty cycle” and is a percentage of the total six-second cycle.
For example, a 50-percent duty cycle would energize and open the L1 Solution Solenoid Valve for three seconds during every six­second cycle.

When the machine is stationary:
The Brake - switch on Pin 6 in the E1 Curtis Speed Controller is open and is not sending the drive signal to
the Motion Input line on pin J3-6 on the A1 Control Board.
The Solution Solenoid switch on pin J3-11 is open, and the L1 Solution Solenoid Valve is de-energized and
closed. This prevents solution ow from the solution tank to the scrub deck.
If the Solution System is disabled, the Solution Solenoid switch on pin J3-11 will remain open regardless of whether or not the A1 Control Board receives a drive signal from the E1 Curtis Speed Controller.

The following conditions must be met before the L1 Solution Solenoid Valve can open:
• There can be no major faults active.
• The machine must not be in a low-voltage condition.
• The Scrub System must be enabled (the Solution On/Off Indicator is lighted).
The S7 POS 1 limit switch on the scrub deck actuator must be closed to indicate that the scrub deck is
below the vacuum-only position.
The A1 Control Board must receive a motion signal from the E1 Curtis Speed Controller.
When the Operator selects a drive direction and presses the go pedal:
The Brake- switch on Pin 6 in the E1 Curtis Speed Controller closes to ground. This drops the voltage on
the Motion Input line on pin J3-6 from 24v down to nearly 0 volts to signal the A1 Control Board that the machine is now in motion.
The Solution Solenoid switch on pin J3-11 switches to ground to energize and open the L1 Solution Solenoid
Valve. This allows solution ow from the solution tank to the scrub deck.
Note that the ground signal from the A1 Control Board to the L1 Solution Solenoid Valve is a pulse-width modulated (PWM) signal. The duty cycle of the PWM signal will vary according to the solution ow rate selected.

Troubleshooting

Problem Cause Correction
No solution to the Scrub Deck (scrub system is working).
Plugged Water Filter. Clean or replace the Filter.
Plugged solution line or ball valve.
No voltage to the Solution Solenoid Valve.
Check the solution lines and ball valve and clear or replace as necessary.
1. Check the voltage on pin J3-11 on the A1 Control Board. The signal, referenced to ground, should be approximately 24.4v with the Solution Solenoid off, 0.12v with the Solution Solenoid on.
2. Check the wiring from pin J3-11 on the A1 Control Board to the Solution Solenoid Valve and repair as necessary
3. Check the wiring from the Key Switch to the Solution Solenoid Valve and repair as necessary.
The Solution Solenoid Valve is not operating correctly.
1. Check the Solution Solenoid Valve coil resistance. If the resistance is not 55.5 Ohms ±10%, replace the Valve.
2. If the Solution Solenoid Valve coil resistance is within spec, check for clogged ports, binding or a mechanical problem. Repair or replace the Valve as necessary.
