# βš™οΈ Operation Functions

# Altitude Compensation

Our systems are installed in different places over the world but calibrated in Pisa and later will be calibrated in Saerbeck.

All places have different altitudes and this might affect the pressure reading values from the sensors.

This can be done using Web GUI (opens new window) or Modbus TCP Interface.

To set altitude using Modbus TCP Interface you need to use Modbus Holding register #4142.

# Preheat

Preheat allows you to prepare your Electrolyser to ramp up in a faster way.

It is usually takes about 20 minutes from 20 deg to 55 deg to reach a nominal production rate.

This can be done using Web GUI (opens new window), Enapter Cloud (opens new window) or Modbus TCP Interface.

To activate preheat using Modbus TCP Interface you need to use Modbus Holding register #1014.

# Stand-By Mode

When your Electrolyser in Stand-By we have two possible actions for the Start/Stop button:

  1. Long press of the Start/Stop button (more than two seconds) will enable the system to re-start to reach the Max Pressure.
  2. The short press of the Start/Stop button will turn the system off.

# Factory Settings Reset

Warning

Factory Settings Reset is available only when the Stack is depressurized. Inner Hydrogen Pressure measured from PT101A must be less 2 barg.

Warning

If UCM is switched OFF using the Wi-Fi Button Factory Settings Reset will reset only Electrolyser settings while UCM and DCN settings will remain unchanged.

Note

During Factory Setting Reset you will hear the buzzer. For more information please check Sound Codes Documentation.

After Fatal Error event, the system shall only be restored through the Factory Settings Reset command.

To enable Factory Settings Reset:

  • Depressurise the Stack. Inner Hydrogen Pressure must be < 2 barg.
  • Turn off the device.
  • Press and hold the Start/Stop button and turn on the device.
  • Hold the button. LEDs start blinking one after another.
  • Release the button. All LEDs will blink once.
  • Factory Settings Reset started. Device will be automatically rebooted. All LEDs blink trice.

There will be a warning if the Start/Stop button has not been released: WARNING WP_04: STICKY BUTTON.

After the Factory Settings Reset your Electrolyser will move to Maintenance Mode if water level is low than the low level. If water level is higher than the low level the Electrolyser will remain in Operation Mode.

# Derating and Uprating of Production Rate

If the ambient temperature is too high, the Electrolyser will automatically reduce its production rate by increments of 10% until internal temperatures return to normal. Once ambient conditions return to normal, the Electrolyser will automatically up-rate to the production rate that allows for its normal internal temperatures.

# Wi-Fi Button

Using this button you can switch the UCM OFF/ON.

This can be needed if:

Warning

Be sure that UCM switched ON while you enabling or removing Dryer Control Network (opens new window).

# πŸ”§ Maintenance Functions

Electrolyser EL 4.0 is designed to provide many hours of service with minimal maintenance. Proper care and maintenance by qualified personnel help to maximize the operating hours of the unit. The Mobile Application, Enapter Cloud and Web GUI help to execute the refilling process.

Action Period Instruction
Inspect Physical Deterioration Once per year The unit should be inspected for obvious signs of physical damages.
Leakage Testing Once per year All hydrogen connections must be tested for leakages. Enapter recommends to use one of the techniques listed in Appendix I in Owner’s manual.
Electrolyte Replacement Once per year
(check the note below)		 For maintaining the device after commissioning, the internal tank must be emptied and new electrolyte must be filled into the device. For more information, please refer to the Electrolyte Draining section, and then follow the instructions for the The First Refilling of the electrolyte.
Cleaning Once per year When performing the routine maintenance processes and checks, the machine should be inspected and cleaned. Start by carefully using a vacuum cleaner (not included) to clean out the ventilation openings/grills. Afterward, use a damp cloth (no acids, aggressive or abrasive substances) to clean the outside of the unit.

Note

Depending on the frequency of use it is possible that the internal tank needs to be emptied and refilled more than once a year. By connecting your device to the Enapter Cloud (opens new window), it is possible to receive alerts when the stack’s voltage starts to increase – this typically means an electrolyte change is needed. The electrolyte change will help the electrolytic stack to return to a lower voltage, decreasing the power consumption of the device and increasing its lifetime.

# 🦺 Safety Functions

# Safety Heartbeat

This functionality increases safety in cases of loss of control by Enapter Gateway or any 3rd party Modbus master device.

Safety Heartbeat is a periodic signal generated by Enapter Gateway or any Modbus master device (i.e PLC) to indicate continuous connection with Electrolyser.

If Electrolyser does not receive the heartbeat in a time (heartbeat period) β€” the machine will shut down normally. Loss of the signal may happen when Gateway or PLC is powered off, or when there is connection issue.

# EL 4.0 Heartbeat

To activate Heartbeat on the EL 4.0 you need to change Heartbeat parameters. To do it use Modbus Holding Register #4600 (for Modbus master) or #4602 (for Enapter Gateway) and #4604 (for UCM).

Parameters:

Heartbeat_ucmtimeout_s - timeout for UCM Heartbeat in seconds. Default value = 0 (disabled).

Heartbeat_gatewaytimeout_s - timeout for Gateway Heartbeat in seconds. Default value = 0 (disabled).

Heartbeat_modbustimeout_s - timeout for Modbus Heartbeat in seconds. Default value = 0 (disabled).

These parameters can also be changed using Web GUI (opens new window). Navigate to Configuration bar and set Heartbeat timeouts.

# UCM Heartbeat

By default UCM Heartbeat is set to 0 (disabled).

Warning

If you set UCM Heartbeat do not switch OFF the UCM using Wi-Fi Button.

# Gateway Heartbeat

How to activate Safety Heartbeat on the Gateway: please check Gateway Software Documentation.

# Modbus Heartbeat

How to activate Safety Heartbeat using Modbus protocol - please check the example of Writing Heartbeat Modbus Timeout.

# Blowdown Routine

Depending on the model of Electrolyser EL 4.0 the device may not have Blowdown Routine.

Warning

If Blowdown Routine is not available, an error will be displayed when trying to execute the command.

This automatic routine will appear if the Electrolyser has not been in STEADY or RAMP UP mode for a certain period of time; in other words, if the Electrolyser has not been in use for some time. After not being in use, the mechanical spring relief valve on the outlet of Electrolyser might not work properly when the 29 bar is reached, and it might need extra pressure to open the first time.

There will be a warning that notifies when the routine starts - Warning WO_20: The Blowdown procedure will be started at H2 production start.

The Blowdown Routine doesn’t interfere with the normal ramp up routine, but only makes some changes to the safety routine checks.

The Blowdown Routine can be enabled using Electrolyser Web GUI (opens new window) or EL 4.0 Modbus TCP Interface.

To activate Blowdown using Modbus TCP Interface use Modbus Holding register #1010.
