Normally Open and Normally Closed Definition<br />

Most electrical components define Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC) operation as the<br />

default state or “on the shelf” state. Example: A NO solenoid valve is open when the coil is not<br />

energized, and closed when the coil is energized. A NC solenoid valve is closed when the coil is not<br />

energized, and open when the coil is energized. This is not true of DNFT or Proflo electrical contacts.<br />

Both the DNFT and Proflo switch contacts are defined as switch states after the divider valve cycles.<br />

NO = Normally Open when running; switch is open while the divider valve cycles. This is non-failsafe<br />

operation. If a wire falls off while the unit runs, the control system will not alarm/shutdown.<br />

NC = Normally Closed when running; switch is closed while the divider valve cycles. This is fail-safe<br />

operation. If a wire falls off while the unit runs, the control system will alarm/shutdown.<br />

<strong>Ariel</strong> recommends NC operation. The Proflo is pre-programmed for NC operation.<br />

Proflo Installation<br />

1. Loosen the two hex-socket set screws<br />

on top of Proflo case and remove magnet<br />

housing. Do not remove magnet,<br />

spring, and spacer from magnet housing.<br />

2. Remove end plug from desired divider<br />

valve. The Proflo installs on either side of<br />

any divider valve, but requires the correct<br />

magnet housing for each divider<br />

valve manufacturer (Trabon, Dropsa,<br />

etc.).<br />

NOTE: Do not install the Proflo on any<br />

divider valves with cycle indicator<br />

pins.<br />

3. Verify O-ring is in place on Proflo magnet<br />

housing. Screw magnet housing into end<br />

of divider valve. Torque magnet housing<br />

to 15 foot-pounds max.<br />

4. Slide Proflo all the way onto magnet<br />

housing. Torque set screws to 15 inchpounds<br />

max. DO NOT over tighten set screws.<br />

FIGURE 2-2 Proflo Installation<br />

5. The Proflo LCD indicates cycle time. Verify correct operation by pumping oil through the divider<br />

valve assembly. The LCD enables the operator to adjust the lubricator pump for correct cycle<br />

time. The force feed lubricator data plate on the lubricator box indicates either normal and breakin<br />

cycle times at maximum rated speed, or normal cycle time for applied speed. Use break-in<br />

cycle times only for the first 200 hours of operation before changing to the normal cycle time. If<br />

unable to determine cycle time, contact the <strong>Ariel</strong> Response Center.<br />

6. All conduit and connections should be appropriate for area classification. Use flexible conduit to<br />

ease installation. Support conduit and fittings to minimize vibration.<br />

7. After Proflo installation or performance of any maintenance on the lube system, compressor cylinders,<br />

or packing, pre-lube the complete system with a purge gun to purge air from the<br />

divider valves and all components BEFORE COMPRESSOR START-UP.<br />
