SECTION 2 INTRODUCTION
The ir-485 Gateway is designed to interface the
Intellisys Controllers (Non-Nirvana) on Ingersoll Rand
Compressors with the X8I or X12I Automation System via
the RS485 Network.
The irV-485 Gateway is designed to interface an
Ingersoll Rand Nirvana, VSD Rotary Compressors, 20
HP (15KW) and above, with the X8I or X12I Automation
System via the RS485 Network.
SECTION 3 SAFETY
Both Gateways are designed to be DIN Rail mounted
within the compressor control gear enclosure but can
alternatively be mounted remotely within a separate
enclosure.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING : Risk of Danger
WARNING : Risk of Electric Shock
WARNING : Risk of High Pressure
WARNING : Consult Manual
Before installing or operating the ir485 / irV485
•
GATEWAY, take time to carefully read all the
instructions contained in this manual, all compressor
manuals, and all manuals of any other peripheral
devices that may be installed or connected to the
unit.
Electricity and compressed air have the potential to
•
cause severe personal injury or property damage.
The operator should use common sense and good
•
working practices while operating and maintaining
this system. All applicable codes should be strictly
adhered to.
OPERATION
The ir485 / irV485 GATEWAY must only be operated
•
by competent personnel under qualied supervision.
Never remove or tamper with safety devices, guards
•
or insulation materials tted to the ir485 / irV485
GATEWAY.
The 485 GATEWAY must only be operated at
•
the supply voltage and frequency for which it is
designed.
When main power is switched on, lethal voltages are
•
present in the electrical circuits and extreme caution
must be exercised whenever it is necessary to carry
out any work on the unit.
Do not open access panels or touch electrical
•
components while voltage is applied unless it is
necessary for measurements, tests or adjustments.
Such work should be carried out only by a qualied
electrician equipped with the correct tools and
wearing appropriate protection against electrical
hazards.
All air compressors and/or other equipment
•
connected to the unit should have a warning sign
attached stating “THIS UNIT MAY START WITHOUT
WARNING” next to the display panel.
Maintenance must be performed by adequately
•
qualied personnel that are equipped with the
proper tools.
INSTALLATION
Installation work must only be carried out by a
•
competent person under qualied supervision.
A fused isolation switch must be tted between the
•
main power supply and the ir485 / irV485 GATEWAY.
The ir485 / irV485 GATEWAY should be mounted
•
in such a location as to allow operational and
maintenance access without obstruction or hazard
and to allow clear visibility of indicators at all times.
If raised platforms are required to provide access to
•
the ir485 / irV485 GATEWAY, they must not interfere
with normal operation or obstruct access. Platforms
and stairs should be of grid or plate construction
with safety rails on all open sides.
If an air compressor and/or other equipment
•
connected to the unit is to be started remotely,
attach two warning signs to the equipment stating
“THIS UNIT CAN BE STARTED REMOTELY”. Attach one
sign in a prominent location on the outside of the
equipment, and the other sign inside the equipment
control compartment.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
Maintenance, repairs or modications must only be
•
carried out by competent personnel under qualied
supervision.
If replacement parts are required, use only genuine
•
parts from the original equipment manufacturer, or
an alternative approved source.
3
Carry out the following operations before opening or
•
removing any access panels or carrying out any work
on the ir485 / irV485 GATEWAY:
Isolate the ir485 / irV485 GATEWAY from the main
i.
electrical power supply. Lock the isolator in the
“OFF” position and remove the fuses.
Attach labels to the isolator switch and to the
ii.
unit stating “WORK IN PROGRESS - DO NOT APPLY
VOLTAGE”. Do not switch on electrical power or
attempt to start the ir485 / irV485 GATEWAY if
such a warning label is attached.
Make sure that all instructions concerning operation
•
and maintenance are strictly followed and that
the complete unit, with all accessories and safety
devices, is kept in good working order.
The accuracy of sensor devices must be checked
•
on a regular basis. They must be calibrated when
acceptable tolerances are exceeded. Always ensure
any pressure within the compressed air system is
safely vented to atmosphere before attempting to
remove or install a sensor device.
The ir485 / irV485 GATEWAY must only be cleaned
•
with a damp cloth, using mild detergents if
necessary. Avoid the use of any substances
containing corrosive acids or alkalis.
Do not paint the control face plate or obscure any
•
indicators, controls, instructions or warnings.
SECTION 4 COMPRESSOR CONNECTION AND CONTROL
COMPRESSOR CONNECTION AND CONTROL
ir-485 Gateway
The ir-485 Gateway module is designed to interface to
any Ingersoll Rand Intellisys controlled (Non-Nirvana)
compressor. All IR compressors equipped with Intellisys
controllers (Non-Nirvana) require this interface. Including:
IntelliSys “Red Eye”, SG and SE
All Nirvana Compressors, 20 HP (15KW) and above
require the irV-485 Gateway.
The X8I or X12I communicates to the ir-485 Gateway via a
two wire, RS485 network utilizing the ir-485 protocol.
The ir-485 Gateway module is installed within the
compressor control cabinet and connected to the X8I or
X12I using Belden 9841 or equivalent RS485 cable.
irV-485 Gateway
The irV-485 Gateway module is designed to interface
to any Ingersoll Rand Nirvana compressor. All Nirvana
Compressors, 20 HP (15KW) and above require this
interface. Including:
IntelliSys SGN, SGNe and Nirvana 15-30kW (20-40HP)
The X8I or X12I communicates to the irV-485 Gateway via
a two wire, RS485 network utilizing the ir485 protocol.
The ir-485 Gateway module is installed within the
compressor control cabinet and connected to the X8I or
X12I using Belden 9841 or equivalent RS485 cable.
