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 />
