5.2.2Valve controller
Control of the ejector pulse
–Auto-drop function (except for OVEM-...-1PD)
The ejector pulse is generated after the “Suction” signal change. The duration of the ejector pulse
can be setè 9.1 Setting the ejector pulse duration.
The ejector pulse is generated via a control signal at the digital switching input (ejection) DI2. The
ejector pulse can also be used to blow dust off the workpiece surface. The duration of the ejector
pulse can be set via the duration of the control signal at the digital switching input (ejector) DI2.
Depending on the input signal, the vacuum solenoid valve or the ejector pulse solenoid valve is
controlled.

switching point SP1
Fig. 4 Mode of operation of the air saving function
If the pressure value has reached switching point SP1 2, vacuum generation is deactivated. An
internal check valve prevents reduction of the vacuum. Vacuum can still be reduced slowly due to
leakage in the overall system (e.g.due to rough workpiece surfaces). To reduce energy consumption,
vacuum generation is not switched on until it falls below the lower threshold value 3.
The air saving function is activated in the factory.
If air-permeable workpieces are transported, the vacuum is reduced more quickly, which would cause
the vacuum generation to switch unnecessarily often. In this case, it makes sense to deactivate the air
saving function è 9.14 Switching air saving function on or off.
5.2.4Optimisation of the transport time
The transport time can be optimised for variants with 2 switching outputs (OVEM-...-2P/-2N/-PU/-PI)
by using switching output Out B.
The vacuum required for the transport is controlled by switching output Out A. To optimise the transport time, the workpiece can e.g. be gripped by the usable vacuum while the vacuum is building up.
The minimum usable vacuum required is monitored by switching output Out B.
5.2.5Monitoring and diagnostics
The vacuum generator has monitoring functions that enable early detection of malfunctions or faults
during operation.
–Monitoring of process parameters (pressure value at the vacuum connection, switching points,
switching outputs and switching inputs, evacuation time tE, air supply time tB and critical limits)
–Diagnostic messages è 11.1 Diagnostic levels
–Fault detection è 11 Error messages and fault clearance
18Festo — OVEM — 2019-03g
Product overview
The diagnostic messages are shown in the display.
Switching output Out B can also be set as a diagnostic message channel (dI 1 or dI 2) for variants with
2 switching outputs (OVEM-...-2P/-2N)è 9.4 Set diagnostic message channel.
The monitoring functions are activated at the factory (except for monitoring of the evacuation and air
supply times). The time monitoring can be activated through setting of the critical limits for evacuation
time and air supply timeè 9.7 Setting critical limits for the evacuation and air supply times.
5.2.6Measured variables
Pressure value (vacuum)
The pressure value (vacuum) is continuously measured between the vacuum connection and filter.
With the OVEM-...-20/30-C the pressure value (vacuum) is continuously monitored between the filter
and the check valve.
The minimum and maximum measured pressure values are saved. If the operating voltage of the vacuum suction nozzle is switched off, the values are lost.
Cycle time
A cycle covers the time from the start of evacuation through ejection to the start of the new evacuation.
Evacuation time and air supply time
The evacuation time tE is measured from the start of evacuation until switching point SP1 of the
switching output is reached.
The air supply time tB is measured from the start of air supply to the time at which the pressure value
(vacuum) falls below −50mbar.

5.2.7Teach function (teach-in)
The Teach function enables configuration of the switching points and time monitoring during run time.
Static teach-in
Depending on the Teach command, one switching point (SP) or 2 switching points (SP1, SP2) are
determined from 2 teach-in points. The switching points are determined statically, that is, the measurement value remains constant during the entire teach-in procedure. The air save function is deactivated for the duration of the teach-in procedure.
Dynamic teach-in
Setpoint values are calculated within the teach-in procedure from a time period. The procedure is
used to determine evacuation and air supply times.
After the start of the teach-in, time tE and tB are measured at every cycle. The times are averaged over
multiple cycle times. At the end of the teach-in, a function reserve of 100%is added to the averaged
values.

8.1Commissioning vacuum generator
At initial commissioning, the vacuum generator is placed in operation with the factory settings
è Tab. 21 Factory settings.
Requirement
Vacuum generator is fully mounted and connected chapter è 6 Assembly.
Checking operating conditions
• Check operating conditions and limit values è 14 Technical data.
Commissioning vacuum generator OVEM-...-OE
1. Apply operating pressure to supply port (1).
Negative pressure is generated at the vacuum connection (2).
Ä
2. Switch on the operating voltage.
The current pressure is displayed and the vacuum generator is ready for operation.
Ä
Commissioning vacuum generator OVEM-...-CE
1. Apply operating pressure to supply port (1).
2. Switch on the operating voltage.
3. Activate suction: apply input signal to pin 5.
Negative pressure is generated at the vacuum connection (2). The current pressure is dis-

11Error messages and fault clearance
The diagnostic messages are shown as error code on the display. For variants with 2 switching outputs
(OVEM-...-2P/-2N) one of the two logical channels of the switching output Out B can also be used as a
diagnostic message channelè 9.4 Set diagnostic message channel. The diagnostic message channel
can be configured as a normally open contact (NO) or a normally closed contact (NC).
11.1Diagnostic levels
There are 4 diagnostic levels. The backlight of the display shows red for messages of diagnostic levels
1 to 3.
