1 General notes

1.1 Safety instructions

In order to prevent serious physical injuries or major material damage, work on/with the
equipment may only be performed by authorised persons with the appropriate training and
qualifications who are familiar with the set-up, installation,. These persons must read the oper-
ating instructions carefully before installation and commissioning. In addition to the operating
instructions and national regulations on accident prevention, recognised technical rules (safe-
ty and professional work under UVV, VBG, VDE etc.) must be followed.
Repairs to the device may only be made by the manufacturer or a repair centre authorised by
the manufacturer.
UNAUTHORISED AND IMPROPER INTERVENTIONS WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY!
The speed controllers are located in the plastic housing (protection rating IP54). This protec-
tion rating is only guaranteed when the equipment is closed! The UL models are assembled
on an open mounting plate.
An open controller creates exposure to hazardous electrical voltages; the protection rating of the
open equipment is IP100! The applicable national accident prevention regulations must be fol-
lowed when working on controllers under voltage.

1.2 Proper intended use

Ensure that fuses are only replaced with fuses of the specified rating and note that they must
not be repaired or bridged. Only a double-pole circuit tester may be used to check that the
equipment is disconnected from the power. The equipment is only intended for the purpos-
es agreed in the order confirmation. Any other or additional use is not in accordance with its
intended purpose. The manufacturer accepts no liability for any damage arising from unin-
tended use. The intended use also includes compliance with the installation, operating and
maintenance procedure described in these operating instructions. The technical data and the
details of the terminal assignments can be found on the type plate and the instructions and
must be followed.
Electronic equipment is not fundamentally failsafe! The user must therefore ensure that his sys-
tem reverts to a safe condition in the event of failure of the equipment. The manufacturer accepts
no responsibility for any damage to life and limb or to material goods and assets in the event of
failure to comply with this provision and in the event of improper use.
The electrical installation must be performed in accordance with the relevant regulations (e.g.
cable cross-section, fuses, earth conductor connection etc.). Additional information is included
in the documentation. If the controller is used in a particular area of application, the requisite
standards and regulations must be followed.

1.3 Commissioning notes

Prior to commissioning of the controller, check whether any residual moisture (condensation)
has formed in the housing. If so, the equipment must be dried out. The same applies if the
sachet of silica gel (desiccant) has discoloured as this indicates that the sachet of silica gel is
no longer providing any protection against moisture. If there are large volumes of condensa-
tion (droplets on the interior walls and components), they must be removed manually. Once
the equipment has been commissioned for the first time, the power supply and the internal
control voltage must no longer be switched off for a long period. If this should nevertheless be
necessary for operational reasons, suitable moisture protection must be provided.

1.8 EMC-compliant installation

The GMM EC/01..16 series controllers meet the requirements of resistance to EMC interfer-
ence in accordance with EN 61000-6-2 and emissions in accordance with EN 61000-6-3.
They also comply with standards IEC 61000 -4/-5/-6/-11 for grid-bound interference. In order
to guarantee EM compatibility, the following points must be noted:
• The equipment must be properly earthed (with at least 1.5 mm²).
• All measurement and signalling cables (only use measurement cables e.g. LIYCY 3x0.5², not
telephone cables!) must be shielded.
• A special cable must be used for bus wiring to the EC fans. e.g. HELUKABEL DeviceNet PUR
flexible1x2xAWG24 + 1x2xAWG22 / 81910.
• The shielding of measurement, signalling and bus cables must be earthed unidirectionally.
• Signalling and control cables must be laid separately from mains and motor cables e.g. in
separate cable ducts.

2 Quick guide to rapid commissioning

These pages contain the main information required for rapid commissioning of the GMM
EC/01 /04 /08 or /16.
THIS QUICK GUIDE IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR CAREFUL STUDY OF THE OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS!

Mains connec- L1 to terminal L1

tion: N to terminal N
PE to terminal PE
Fuses: There are no exchangeable microfuses built into the GMM for semicon-
ductor and motor protection. The equipment must be fused with a C 6A
pro phase circuit breaker provided by the customer.
A 250 V / 1 A fuse is built into the UL model on the 24 V side.
Fan connection: depending on the model, there are 1 to 16 bus outputs for the EC fans
on the GMM on the lower PCB (see Location of connections on the GMM EC/08, Page
13):
Communication interface: Terminal A and B (top row)
24 V fan voltage supply: Terminal + and - (bottom row)

The fans are not powered from the GMM, but are wired in an external terminal box e.g. on the
GPD (Güntner Power Distribution).

Analogue inputs: Pressure sensor 1 (brown) on +24V

on the GMM GSW 4003 2 (green) on B1 or B2
GSW 4003.1 2 (blue) on B1 or B2
Temperature sensor 1 (white) on B3
2 (brown) on GND
Standard Signal (0 ... 1V) Plus (+) on B4
Minus (-) on GND

Signalling out- Connections for signalling outputs, see Potential-free signalling outputs,
puts Page 26
Enable The function of the D1 input is to enable the controller. This input must
be connected to GND for the controller to work and the fans to be able to
turn. (This jumper is installed in the factory)
In version .1 (see type plate) the D1 input must be connected with +24V !
Language The default language on delivery is English. The display language can be
changed in the Language menu option.
Time The date and time can be set in the Time menu option. The time, date
and error code are stored in the log in the event of a fault.
The GMM is generally operational once the above settings are made.

"Manual" mode can be selected to check the functioning of the GMM. To do this, select the
"Manual mode" menu option with the "down" arrow and then confirm with the "right" arrow.
Scroll to the "Manual mode on" menu option using the "up/down" arrows and select the
function with the "Enter" key A * appears at the end of the first line and indicates that this
function is now selected. Now use the "down" arrow to navigate to the control value func-
tion and select it with the "right" arrow. The control value (0 - 100%) is displayed. This con-
trol value can now be modified by pressing the "left" arrow. As soon as the change has been
confirmed with the "left" arrow, the fans will run with this control value.
If manual mode is deactivated again after this test, the GMM will revert to the set mode.
Operating mode The default mode setting is "Automatic internal". This means that the
controller controls to the set setpoint. For this to be possible, a set-
point must be entered and the input for the actual value must be
defined in the I/O configuration. The control parameters Kp. Ti and
Td can still be modified in the service menu.
Limiter The speed of the fans can be limited e.g. to limit noise emissions at
night. This value is set in the Night limiter menu option. The night
limiter is activated either via the D2 input or via the timer, which is
programmed in the Night limiter menu option.
Reference point It is possible to choose between two setpoints (e.g. for summer and
changeover winter operation). The switchover is effected via the D3input.
The "Limiter" and "Setpoint switchover"functions Reference point changeovermenu.

3.3 Controller fan connection

The connection for an EC fan consists of the power connection (single-phase 230 V or 3-
phase 400 V) and the control connection (bus and DC power support for the fan electron-
ics).
Power connection:
The power connections are not located in the GMM but in a separate connection box (e.g.
GPD).
Control connection:
The communications and the DC power supply for the fans are connected on the GMM's
double-level terminal block (see point 3 on equipment connection diagram page Location of
connections on the GMM EC/08, Page 13).
Depending on the model, there are 1 to 16 control connections for the EC fans on the lower
PCB.
On the terminal block (see image bottom left), there are 2 terminals for the bus communi-
cations and 2 terminals for the power supply for each fan. The fan groups are identified on
the PCB under the terminal block. The top row is used for the communications wiring and
the bottom row for the power supply to the electronics in the EC fans.
Communication connection: Terminal A (white) and B (blue) top row 24 volt
Voltage supply: Terminal + (red) and – (black) bottom row
The connector terminals are designed for a maximum cable cross-section of 2.5 mm².

4 Installation of the GMM, cabling

4.1 Installation of the controller, ventilation

If the equipment has been taken from a very cool storage location, leave it at room tempera-
ture for 1-2 hours before installation with the lid open to allow any residual moisture to dis-
perse and hence avoid malfunctions during commissioning. The equipment may only be com-
missioned when it is absolutely dry. The sachet of silica gel (desiccant sachet) must be re-
moved.
Once the equipment has been commissioned for the first time, the power supply and the inter-
nal control voltage must no longer be switched off for a long period. If this should nevertheless be
necessary for operational reasons, suitable moisture protection must be provided.
There are 4 fixing drill holes in the housing for installation. The equipment may only be fixed
at these points, any manipulations of the housing (e.g. drilling new fixing holes) is prohibited.
The cable entries must always be underneath; installation with cable entries at the side or even on
top is not permitted!
If moisture problems occur in the housing owing to considerable external heating and cooling,
the moisture must be dispersed by means of an air adjustment (cable screw with adjustment
opening).
Keep an eye on good accessibility! The equipment must be easily accessible for any mainte-
nance work.
Note:
• If the equipment is installed in a switch cabinet, the temperature inside the switch cabinet
must be heeded. Electrical and mechanical properties, Page 84).
• A hood is prescribed if the equipment is installed in the open air.
• Install the GMM out of direct sunlight and choose a location with the best possible protection
against the elements.

4.2 Cable laying, shielding

Basically sensor cables and bus cables must be laid separately from the motor and mains ca-
bles i.e. not in the same cable duct. Shielded cable must be used.

Operating instructions - Güntner Motor Management GMM V_1.10 © Güntner AG & Co. KG

5 GMM Controller commissioning

With the GMM, the fans are controlled via a bus. These fans must be set up and checked
for the condenser or recirculating cooler depending on the design of the heat exchanger.
These settings and checked are necessary on initial commissioning and possibly when a fan
is changed. The power and volume of the heat exchanger are defined by this commissioning.
In the annex you will find a table, which contains the fan ID and the fan type for different heat
exchangers.
The GMM automatically detects whether commissioning has been carried out when it is
switched on. If it has, the commissioning menu is skipped and normal operation continues.

 Page 18 / 100

5.1 Commissioning menu

The default language for commissioning is English, even if a different language has been se-
lected for the display. However, the commissioning and only applies to the commissioning
menu.
You can exit the commissioning menu at any time by pressing the"X""bar".

Once the language has been selected, the number of fans is queried next.
Once the number of fans has been entered, the GMM searches for the connected fans. The
flashing* shows the search progress. If the number of fans is not the same as the number
entered, an error message returned.

If the number of fans found does not match the number entered, the following menu option

If fewer fans are found, the numbers of all the fans not found are displayed.
On the other hand, if more fans are found, the total number of fans found is displayed.
If the search is successful i.e. the specified number of fans is found, the VT numbers of the
fans is read out. The VT number is the type designation of the motor.
If the VT numbers of all the fans are not the same, the VT numbers with discrepancies are
output.

It is then not possible to continue commissioning since all the fans must have the same VT
number. It is now essential to change the fans with the incorrect VT number. The VT num-
bers are printed on the type plate of the fans.
If all the VT numbers of the fans are now the same, the ID number of the fans is entered in
the next step. The ID number represents the working point of the fan for this heat exchang-
er. You will find this number in the electrical circuit diagram of the heat exchanger or the
overview table in the annex.

Fan ID 1000 has been entered here as an example. On initial commissioning, the smallest
fan ID is proposed. If this point (ID input) has been completed before, the last ID number
entered is proposed.
After input, the GMM checks the fan ID. The text cycle is indicated by a flashing * in
the display. If the fan ID is incorrect, you are prompted to make a correct input. With
the"ENTER"key you go back to the ID entry. However, you can also abort the process by
pressing the"X"key. If you abort the process, commissioning is not yet complete and normal
operation will not be started. Commissioning must first be performed completely.
If the appropriate fan ID is found, you are prompted for the maximum permissible speed for
the heat exchanger (depending on the design point).

Operating instructions - Güntner Motor Management GMM V_1.10 © Güntner AG & Co. KG
 Page 20 / 100

In the example above, a maximum speed of 1000 rpm has been entered. This speed will be
checked.
If it is incorrect i.e. it does not match the speed specified by the ID, you will be prompted to
modify the input. Once the modified speed has been entered, it is checked and may be ac-
knowledged withthe message,"Speed OK". Otherwise you will be prompted again to correct
the input.
If the maximum speed is correct, you will be asked for the heat exchanger type, refrigerant
and operating mode.
A condenser (e.g. GVH etc.) or a recirculating cooler (e.g. GFH etc.) may be set up.
If a condenser has been selected, you will be asked for the refrigerant in the next step. There
is a choice of 10 refrigerants. If "bar" is selected, the pressure will be displayed in normal
operation. When a refrigerant is selected, the condensing temperature corresponding to the
pressure will be displayed. The selected refrigerant or "bar" are marked* a "*".
The default valueis"bar".
If a recirculating cooler is selected, the temperature of the refrigerant in normal operation is
displayed.

6.6 Potential-free signalling outputs

For safety reasons, the potential-free signalling outputs (two-way contacts) are designed
such that the corresponding signalling relay drops out i.e. the break contact of the corre-
sponding two-way contact closes, when an event occurs. A fault is also signalled when the
GMM has no power because of an error. All signalling outputs must not exceed 250V/1A.

1. Alarm Prio 1
2. Alarm Prio 2
3. System in operation
4. Threshold value

6.6.1 Digital output (11/12/14) (priority 1 alarms)

The message on the Prio 1 output is a fault, which and which signals the complete failure and
standstill of the heat exchanger.
The signalling relay has contacts 11/12/14. An alarm is signalled in the following situations:
- For example, all fans have failed (equipment fault)
- Error messages and alarm assignment see Error messages and warnings on the GMM dis-
play, Page 87
If an alarm occurs, the signalling relay is switched (drops out) i.e. the two-way contact 11/12
closes. The load on this potential-free contact must not exceed 250 V / 1 A.

6.6.2 Digital output (21/22/24) (priority 2 alarms)

All signals on the Priority 2 output are events that do not result in the complete failure of the
heat exchanger. These are warnings that the operation of the heat exchanger.
The signalling relay has contacts 21/22/24. A warning is signalled in the following situations:
- e.g. sensor faults or a failed fan (in equipment with multiple fans)
- Error messages and alarm assignment see Error messages and warnings on the GMM dis-
play, Page 87
If a warning occurs, the signalling relay is switched (drops out) i.e. the two-way contact 21/22
closes. The load on this potential-free contact must not exceed 250 V / 1 A.

6.6.3 Digital output (31/32/34) (Operating message)

The signalling relay has contacts 31/32/34. The two-way contact (31/34) is closed when a
control signal is sent to the fans i.e. the fans are operational.

6.6.4 Digital output (41/42/44) (threshold value)

You can configure a threshold value function on the GMM (see see Threshold value, Page
69).
The DO4 digital output trips (contact 41/44 closes) when the respective threshold value is
exceeded. This can be used, for example, to switch a solenoid valve, control an actuator, acti-
vate a spray etc.
The load on this potential-free contact must not exceed 250V/1A.

Operating instructions - Güntner Motor Management GMM V_1.10 © Güntner AG & Co. KG
 Page 28 / 100

6.7 Control inputs

The control inputs are designed as a low-voltage connection and are connected via a poten-
tial-free contact (relay, contactor contact, switch etc.). The potential-free contact must be
switched between the GND terminal or+24V (depending on the device status) and the D1 or
D2 or D3 control input. The function is activated when the contact is closed.
There are two GMM versions with different wiring on the digital inputs.

The current GMM ECxx.1 version can be recognized by the 2 additional +24V terminals.
Types: GMM EC01.1 , GMM EC04.1 , GMM EC08.1 , GMM EC16.1

D1...D3 become active with +24V

Two additional +24 volt terminals from GMM ECxx.1 version

The GMM ECxx version does not have any additional +24V.
Types: GMM EC01 , GMM EC04 , GMM EC08 , GMM EC16

D1...D3 become active with GND

CAUTION! A faulty connection can cause serious damage!

Under no circumstances may the mains voltage be applied to the digital outputs, or may work be
performed with another external voltage!

via terminalD1“ (enable) for the fans. The speed then depends on the control value. If enable
is not switched, the fans will be disabled (speed = 0).
If it is not to be enabled externally, terminal must be connected using a jumper!
This enabling jumper is always built in ex factory.
CAUTION! A faulty connection can cause serious damage!

Important note: Under no circumstances may the controller be disabled by interrupting the
mains voltage ! Continuously switching the supply voltage can damage the controller, which is
not covered by warranty for such damage!
A release is not required in the "Manual mode".

6.7.2 Speed limiter (night limiter)

is activated via the terminalD2terminal. If this terminal is switched, the control signal is ac-
tivated and hence the fan speed are limited to the set value. The GMM will not exceed the
speed set there. For setting the speed limiter, see section Setpoints, Page 45 and for gener-
al activation see section Service, Page 53.

6.7.3 Switching to 2nd Setpoint

Setpoint switchover:
This function enables the switchover between two setpoints, which serve as controlling input
values. The switchover is made by connecting the "D3" input.
If this terminal is blank, Setpoint 1 is always active. Ex works, this connection is blank (open).

If this function is activated in the service menu, the control mode can be switched over be-
tween heating and cooling. (Cooling and heat pump operation, for example)

The second setpoint and the second setpoint displacement are switched over with
the"D3"input.

6.8 Analogue inputs

The GMM has four sensor inputs

Input BI1 and BI2 Current input 4-20mA

Input B3 Impedance sensor PTC/KTY81-210

Input B4 Voltage source 0-10V DC

The options of how inputs can be used and correspondingly must be connected are described
below.
CAUTION! A faulty connection can seriously damage the analogue inputs!
The 40-20mA inputs may be neither poled nor connected directly to 0-10V DC or +24V.

6.8.1 Pressure sensor connection to B1/B2

1 or 2 sensors (2-wire sensors) can be connected:

+24V = Common supply voltage (GSW4003.1: brown(1), GSW4003:brown(1))
B1 = 4-20mA signal from sensor 1 (GSW4003.1: blue(3), GSW4003: green(2))

B2 = 4-20mA signal from sensor 2 (GSW4003.1: blue(3), GSW4003: green(2))

The connected pressure sensors must be configured in the hardware configuration.

With use of 2 sensors the greater signal is always processed by the control unit as the actual
value (max. selection)
NOTE: 3-wire sensors with a 4-20 mA signal output can also be connected, but also require
an earth potential. You can tap this from the GND terminal.
Important for pressure sensors: Do not install the sensor in the immediate vicinity of the
compressor to protect it from large pressure impacts and vibrations. It should be installed
as close to the condenser inlet as possible.

Pressure transmitter connection

 Page 33 / 100

6.8.2 External power signal connection to B1/B2

The B1 or B2 inputs can also be used to control the controller in SLAVE operation.
To do this, this input must be defined as a control value slave in the I/O configuration.
The 420mA input signal is scaled 0-100% in a control signal and passed on to the fans.
Furthermore a setpoint, for example, can also be specified externally via the B1 or B2 in-
puts.
Up to two power signals (4-20mA) can be connected to the B1 and B2 analogue inputs.
GND = Reference point (-).
B1 = Current input (+) 4..20mA
B2 = Current input (+) 4..20mA
Important: Make sure the current source polarity is correct!

Current source connection

With the current inputs ensure currents of less than 2mA or greater than 22mA result in sen-
sor fault display and message.

6.8.3 Temperature sensor connection to B3

A temperature sensor is connected on the terminals

GND = Earth
B3 = Signal input
There is no particular sequence for the cores.
The Güntner temperature sensor GTF210 is set in the range from -30...+70°C. Please con-
tact us for other temperature ranges.

Temperature sensor connection

To test a temperature sensor that may be defective, disconnect it from the controller and mea-
sure the impedance of the sensor (with an ohmmeter or multimeter). On the GTF210 , the im-
pedance should be between 1.04 kΩ (-50°C) and 3.27kΩ (+100°C). You can use the table be-
low to check whether the sensor has the correct impedance at a known temperature.

6.8.4 0-10V voltage signal connection to B4

A standard signal (0-10V) is connected on the terminals

GND = Earth (negative)
B4 = Signal input 0-10V DC (max. 12V DC)
Make sure the polarity is correct (earth to GND, signal to B4)!
The 0-10V input is mostly used to operate the controller in slave mode. To do this, this input
must be defined as a slave input in the I/O configuration. The 0-10V input signal is scaled
0-100% in a control signal and passed on to the fans.
As an alternative, you can also connect a GHP manual potentiometer as a remote control.
The connecting terminals on the GHP are labelled with either 1/2/3 or x/-/Y.

+ or 3 on +24V
- or 1 on GND
Y or 2 on B4

You can then use the speed controller purely as a speed adjuster and specify the fan speed
yourself manually.

6.11.1 Control parameters

The control parameters are configured in this menu option.

6.11.1.1 Control parameters Kp, Ti and Td

The Kp factor can be entered in a range from 0.1 to 10.0 to one decimal place. The Kp factor
specifies the control amplification. It is the proportion of the control path following the input
signal.
The Ti reset time changes the control value in the set time by the value that is predefined by
the proportional factor.
Example: With an unchanged control deviation (Xs) of 1K and Xp = 10 the control signal in Ti
= 25s is increased by 10%.
The rate time Td can be set in a range from 0 to 1000 seconds. The D part of the control re-
acts not to the control deviation but to the speed of change.
Normally the GMM is used to cool liquids and refrigerants. With some applications a rever-
sal of the function is required, i.e. liquids are warmed. With the regulator parameter setting
“Mode” the control characteristics can be set to heating.
This function can generally be performed once (heating), or it can even be switched over via
the DI3 input (heating ext.).

6.11.1.2 Cooling/heating control parameter mode

Normally the GMM is used to cool liquids and refrigerants. With some applications a rever-
sal of the function is required, i.e. liquids are warmed (e.g. with heat pumps). With the “Mode”
control parameter setting the control characteristics can be set to heating.
It is possible to change the mode (heating ext) via the DI3 input.

6.11.1.3 Base control value and Start control value control parameters

The base control value is used to set a minimum speed.

The start control value function is used to define a start point for issuing the control value.
Here are some setting examples:

Base Start

6.11.5 Bypass

The bypass function can be activated or deactivated in this service option. If

the function has been activated, the control value for bypass mode can be
set.
This funciton is used to maintain operation with a GMMEC component fault.

6.11.5.1 Bypass switching

The bypass function causes the fans to run with a GMM fault at a speed that must be set
here first.
The bypass speed is automatically activated after the connection to the GMM fails and with
a sensor fault with a delay of 10 s.

The bypass mode currently set is shown with an asterisk. The mode is selected with the ←
key. Display the control value by using the > key. The value is changed as described in the
Operating menu.
The following options can be set:
Bypass operation ON
Control value 0%
... if the GMM is defective or the connection to the fans has been interrupted:
→ all fans stop
Bypass operation ON
Control value 100%
... if the GMM is defective or the connection to the fans has been interrupted:
→ all fans run at a speed of 100%
Bypass operation OFF
The control value is then not visible on the display and therefore does not have to be set.
... if the GMM is defective or the connection to the fans has been interrupted:
→ all fans run at the last speed before the GMM failed

6.11.6 Functions

The control functions, such as number of setpoints, the night limiter or set-
point displacement,, the Low Capacity Motor Management or the subcooler
function are selected in this service menu option.

6.11.6.1 Number of setpoints

The number of setpoints is set here. The minimum number is 1 setpoint on which control
is performed. If 2 setpoints are selected, switchover is via the D3digital input. If the input is
open, setpoint 1 is used for control.
If the D3 input must be connected with GND,setpoint 2 is used for control. In version .1 the
D3 input must be connected with +24V to switch over to setpoint 2.
Two different setpoints can consequently be determined for summer and winter operation, for
example.

6.11.6.2 Nightsetback

A night limiter is generally activated or deactivated in this service option. The value of the
night limiter is set in the Nightsetback menu option. The night limiter, i.e. activation and de-
activation and the control value, can also be programmed in the normal operating menu. The
night limiter is activated both via the DI2 digital input and via the activation and deactivation
time. Both activations can take place in parallel. If the activation and deactivation times are
the same, activation is only via the DI2.

 Page 63 / 100

6.11.6.3 Setpoint displacement

It is beneficial to ensure the optimum energy operation to displace the set-

point under certain circumstances, depending on the external temperature.
Setting the min. condensation temperature can cause rising external tem-
peratures, so that the external temperature is above the setpoint. If the sys-
tem is now only to be operated at partial load, raising the setpoint can save
energy on the fans. Without a displacement these fans would always be con-
trolled with 100%, as the high external temperature (above the setpoint)
means this setpoint cannot be reached.

The temperatures Tmin external and Tmax external can be set in the menu. The range be-
tween Tmin external and Tmax external marks the range to be displaced into. The ∆T, which
defines the offset between the setpoint and the external temperature, must also be defined.
Example: Setpoint = 25°C
∆T =5K
Tmin exter- = 20°C
nal = 40°C
Tmax exter-
nal
In this example the setpoint must always be 5 K above the external temperature. The dis-
placement therefore begins at 20.1°C external temperature. At this point the setpoint is dis-
placed to 25.1°C. Tmin external and Tmax external limits mark the range in which the dis-
placement works. In this example the setpoint is displaced at 20°C at the earliest, provided
the setpoint is low enough. The max. value where the setpoint can be displaced to is at 45°C
in this example.

 Page 64 / 100

6.11.6.4 Low Capacity Motor Management

EC fans have a minimum speed that is in an approx. 9 – 15% range of the maximum speed.
With systems with one fan this is simultaneously the smallest possible control value of the
controller for the overall system.
With systems with several fans the controller's LCMM function enables a control value that is
lower than the minimum control value of an individual fan by switching the fans off and on
(min. control value = min. fans speed / number of fans). With control values that are above
the minimum speed of an individual fan (therefore from approx. 9-15%), all fans run regular-
ly and the control is now only via the fans' speed. The advantage of this control is the ability,
even with low heat exchanger power, to use the continuous control via the fan speed instead
of to running a pure 2 point control.
A system with 4 individually controlled fans serves as an example. With an assumed minimum
fan speed of 10% of the maximum speed, a control value of 2.5% can be set for the heat ex-
changer (10% / 4). At this setting one fan runs with the required minimum speed and all oth-
er fans are switched off. If the control value is increased, the activated fan increases its speed.
As soon as the overall system reaches a control value of 5% the 2nd fan is activated; from
7.5% the third and from 10% all fans run. The figure below illustrates the process. Without
LCMM only heat exchanger powers > 10% are possible (all fans run).

LCMM with 4 fans

Operating instructions - Güntner Motor Management GMM V_1.10 © Güntner AG & Co. KG
 Page 65 / 100

6.11.6.4.1 LCMM hysteresis

To avoid a constant switching on and off of the fans depending on the calculated control val-
ue, a hysteresis factor between 1.0 and 2.5 can be defined. This factor is multiplied with the
minimum speed of the respective fan and the control value from which the first/next fan will
be activated is therefore determined. (A hysteresis factor > 1.0 means no hysteresis.)

Within the hysteresis curve the GMM control continues to run regularly via the speed of the
fans, as described in the above section. The control values, with which individual fans are ac-
tivated or deactivated, have changed.

In the example shown below the minimum speed of a fan is at 10%, the hysteresis factor is
at 1.5 and therefore the speed at which the first fan is activated is at 15% (this is equal in
our example with 4 fans to a heat exchanger power of 3.75%). The first fan is deactivated at
a heat exchanger power of 2.5% or less, i.e. when the minimum speed of the individual fan is
reached. The second fan is activated in our example at a system control value of 7.5% (2 of 4
fans run at a control value of 15%), the third fan at 11.25% and the fourth at 15%.

LCMM hysteresis switch-on

6.11.6.4.2 LCMM Fancycling

Via the Fancycling LCMM offers the ability to keep the fans' runtimes more or less the same.
When this feature is activated the fans at low control values are switched on in an alternating
sequence, so that the devices with the least operating hours are switched on first. This in turn
increases the EC fans' overall service life.

6.11.6.4.3 LCMM Fancycling assignment

The assignment of how the fan cycling is to run can be performed in 4 different ways. The sin-
gle row assignment for heat exchangers of up to 8 fans is in 1 row. The two row assignment
applies for heat exchangers with up to 16 fans in 2 rows.

1 row single (1- 2 - 3- 4- 5- 6- 7- 8)

1 row in pairs (1+2, 3+4, 5+6, 7+8)
2 rows single beside one another (e.g. with fan
unit 8: 1-5-2-6-3-7-4-8)
2 rows in pairs (e.g. with fan unit 8: 1+5, 2+6,
3+7, 4+8)

6.11.6.4.4 LCMM min. control value adjustment

The control value adjustment means that with the “Slave external” operating mode the pre-set
control value 1:1 is not issued, but it can be adjusted to a maximum of 4 levels.
This makes it possible to make a “Signal adjustment” over the 0-100% range, whereby the
values 0% and 100% are not adjusted.
The adjustment is shown in the diagram below. The X axis gives the external pre-set control
value in % and the control value for the fans can be read in % on the Y axis.

6.11.6.5 Subcooler function

This function allows a separate EC fan to be operated as subcooler. The control value for the
subcooler fan (0..10V = 0..100%) is given via the “AO2” output to the fan.
This subcooler runs constantly, independent of the regulation of the control unit with the set
speed. It is activated like the regulated fans via the release.
The subcooler function can be switched on and off in the functions menu.
The fan type used is selected in the selection menu.

6.11.7.2 Power inputs AI1

Current value means that the current measurement signal is present on this input. With
pressure sensor GSW4003 this is the current corresponding to the pressure. Make sure that
the "Auto int" mode has been selected in the menu There is a special situation if both cur-
rent inputs are configured as current value. The current input delivering the greatest mea-
surement signal is then selected (MAX selection).
A current value of 0-25 bar or 0-40 bar can be selected with the current input

Slave control value means that the control signal for the fans follows this input. With cur-
rent input this means that 4 mA generates a control signal of 0%, and 20mA input current a
control signal of 100% on the fans. Make sure that the "Slave ext" mode has been selected
in the operating mode menu.

Setpoint 1 means that setpoint 1 on which internal control is performed is specified via the
current input. The current input is scaled to the set actual value (see table Error messages
and warnings on the GMM display, Page 87). The origin of the actual value still has to be
configured. Make sure that the "Auto ext" mode has been selected in the operating mode
menu.

Setpoint 2 is only offered if the number of setpoints has been configured to 2 (see Number
of setpoints, Page 62). If setpoint 2 is configured, the same applies as described with Set-
point 1 .

No function is selected if this input should be inactive.

Basically the same applies for current input 2, as with current input 1, except that there are
two additional setting options.

+50°C) is connected on this current input. This input is used exclusively for external tempera-
ture recording.
Current value GTF210 means that a GTF210 temperature sensor is connected to this input.
Please note! This function is only available with the corresponding software version.

6.11.7.4 AI3 input temperature sensor

Temp actual value means that a GTF210 temperature sensor is connected to this input.
External temperature means that a GTF210 temperature sensor is connected to this input to
record the external temperature. The measurement range is -30°C to +70°C. It is ensured that
only 1 external temperature can be selected.

No function is selected if this input is to be inactive.

6.11.7.5 0..10V AI4 input

Current value means that the current value (0..10V) for control is on this input. Make sure that
the "Auto int" mode has been selected in the menu

Slave control value means that the control signal for the fans follows this input. The character-
istic curve is linear from 0-100%. Make sure that the "Auto int" operating mode menu.

Setpoint 1 means that the setpoint 1 on which internal control is performed is specified via
the voltage input. The voltage input is scaled to the set actual value (see Error messages and
warnings on the GMM display, Page 87). The origin of the actual value still has to be config-
ured. Make sure that the "Auto ext" Operating mode operating mode menu.

Setpoint 2 is only offered if the number of setpoints has been configured to 2 (see Number of

7 Faults and troubleshooting

7.1 General notes

Most faults that occur during commissioning are due to wiring faults or defective sensors. It
is only in the rarest of cases that the speed controller itself is defective. Check the following
points before ordering a replacement:
Status info menu:
• Is a fault displayed in the info menu? (You can always return to the Info menu by pressing
the X key).
• If NO, then go to Test point 2.
• If the "Unit fault" message is displayed, there is an error on the EC controller(lower PCB with
fan connections). Then please check the fan connections on the EC controller. Are the 24V DC
supply cables connected to the fans properly? Are the bus connections A and B connected
properly and with the correct polarity.
I• f the "Vn temperature" message appears, one or more of the fans has a temperature fault.
Vn represents the fan number. If more than one fan is affected, they are listed in succession. A
temperature fault exists if the motor winding or motor end stage is too hot.
• If the "Vn mains failure“ message appears, one or more of the fans has a phase failure (only
on 3-phase fans). For single-phase fans, the message "Vn general error" appears. Vn represents
the fan number. If more than one fan is affected, they are listed in succession.
If the message "No sensor selected" appears, no sensor input has been selected in the IO con-
figuration.
TEST POINT 2:
Mains connection:
• Are all phases present? (The message"V? general fault" appears if there is a missing phase ap-
pearsfans. V? stands for the fan number. If more than one fan is affected, they are listed in
succession.
Sensor connection:
• Is the sensor connected correctly? Cf "Sensor connection" section
• Sensor OK? (Measure! Pressure: 4-20mA, Temp.: 1.2-2.7kΩ, default signal: 0-10V)
• Are the sensor cables laid in the immediate vicinity of the mains or motor cable? Consider
increasing the distance!
• Are the sensor cables shielded? If not – swap for shielded cables!
• Is the shielding applied unidirectionally on the controller?
Fuses:
• Is the fuse on the controller supply OK?

10 External control value scaling

The dependencies of the external control value specs for the current value regulations are ex-
plained in this table. A 0 ..10V external voltage can, for example, specify a temperature control
value. 0V is then equal to a temperature of 0°C and a voltage of 10V is equal to a control value
temperature of 100°C.

14 Troubleshooting tips

Errors Possible cause, suggested solution

Fans are not If NOTHING happens when the controller is switched on and nothing in
turning the either as a setpoint or a current value, check the Operating mode and
the I/O configuration. The operating mode appears on the far right of the
2nd line (A = automatic, S = slave mode, H = manual mode). The wrong
input function has been chosen for the selected operating mode in the I/
O configuration.
• If the setpoint and the actual value appear in the Info menu, but the
setpoint does not match the set setpoint, check the mode for any set-
point that may have been set externally.
• Check the power supply and the cable to the fan for faults (cable break
etc.).
• Has the sensor failed? Check:
• 2-wire pressure sensor: Must deliver 4-20 mA (check with ampmeter).
• Temperature sensor: Measure the impedance; it must be between 1200
and 2700 Ohm. Lower values indicate a short circuit or similar fault (e.g.
water in the terminal box), higher values indicate a loose connection or
cable break.
• Standard signal: May be between 0 and 10V. If it is permanently at 0V, a
defect is probable.
Fan does not • Is the limiter active? The maximum fan speed is limited to the speed set
reach its maxi- here. Check the setting!
mum speed or • The control system may be incorrectly set up.
runs too slowly • The fan speed increases when you increase the setpoint. If this does not
in normal opera- help, you can adjust the Kp factor carefully: if the Kp factor is increased,
tion the fan will reach its maximum speed quicker. NOTE: too great an in-
crease in the Kp factor can lead to "oscillation"! If this happens, reduce
the Kp factor again.
• Is the sensor delivering a correct signal? If it is too low, the fan will not
reach the requisite speed. Check:
• Temperature sensor: Has the sensor been installed correctly? An incor-
rect value will be recorded near heat sources or e.g. in direct sunlight.
Check the sensor and wiring! (Cable break? Has a wire come loose from
the connection terminals?)
• Standard signal 0-10V: Measure the signal on the terminals using a
multimeter. It must be between 0 and 10V. Is the polarity correct?
• Pressure transmitter: The 2-wire sensor delivers 4-20 mA; check this
value (ammeter). If the value is not within this range or remains constant
even when the pressure changes, the pressure transmitter is defective.
