Patriot Plug and Play

The Patriot Plug and Play is a quick and easy solution to upgrade your controls on CMC™ and MP3™ Ingersoll Rand controllers. Installation requires removing the base control module and operator display, then installing the PLC and HMI.

The Patriot Plug and Play features an Allen-Bradley Compact Logix non-proprietary PLC, as well as an Allen-Bradley PanelView 10” color touch screen interface for easy operation and viewing is standard.

The Patriot Plug and Play controller provides for all pressure controls, temperature controls, and monitoring of all functions to provide alarm and shutdown for vibration, low oil pressure, high/low oil temperature, high inter-stage temperatures and seal air pressure.

The Patriot Plug and Play controller also allows adjustment of all operating parameters, alarm and trip set points through the HMI.

One of the best highlights of the Patriot Plug and Play is its simple operation:

• Six (6) pushbuttons on the “Human Machine Interface” (HMI).
• 640 x 480 pixel graphic, LCD TFT color display of all screens.
• First-out indication and alarm log to determine the compressor trip.
• Non proprietary programming allowing plant personnel to troubleshoot and make changes to the existing program.

Patriot Plus

Features of the Patriot Plus:

• Allen-Bradley Compact Logix non-proprietary PLC.
• Human Machine Interface (HMI).
• Nonproprietary programming allowing plant personnel to troubleshoot and make changes to the existing program.
• Allen-Bradley PanelView 10” color touch screen interface for easy operation and viewing.

The Patriot Plus Controller and HMI are mounted in a NEMA 4/12 enclosure suitable for mounting on the
compressor base plate. In addition to the processor and HMI, the panel houses the pressure transducers, seal air regulator with pressure gauge and switch, pre-lube pump motor starter with overload protection, oil reservoir heater contactor, control power Transformer, 24-volt power supply, vibration transmitters and interconnecting wiring terminal strips.

Patriot Plus controller provides for all pressure controls, temperature controls, and monitoring of all functions to provide alarm and shutdown for vibration, low oil pressure, high/low oil temperature, high inter-stage temperatures and seal air pressure.

The Patriot Plus controller also allows adjustment of all operating parameters, alarm and trip set points through the HMI.

In addition to the great features, the Patriot Plus also offers a simple operation with six (6) pushbuttons on the “Human Machine Interface” (HMI), 640 x 480 pixel graphic, LCD TFT color display of all screens, and a first-out indication and alarm log to determine the compressor trip.

Patriot Pro

The A.C.E. Patriot Pro Controller is an upgrade for the Atlas Copco Z Series and several models of screw compressors. It provides for a more reliable, easier to use monitor and the ability to troubleshoot the compressor system. The control unit provides all control and communication to and from the compressor.

The Patriot Pro features a graphical display of compressor operation for easy to follow monitoring and troubleshooting. Configuration screens allow monitoring and configuring all parameters from a single page which allows for much less confusion than paging back and forth through simple text-based setup screens.

Monitoring of I/O points is on a single screen so maintenance technicians can easily follow the path to any problem sensor. Real-time and historical trending is captured in a separate easily accessible screen. Historical files are created and can be downloaded as CSV Excel files.

A powerful suite of communication protocols is available to allow monitoring from PLCs, SCADA, DCS, or central monitoring systems.

Allen Bradley Ethernet/IP • Modbus RTU • Modbus TCP/IP • SNMP • FTP • BACnet • VNC

Remote access to the controller can provide off site maintenance from A.C.E. This can also provide for controller updates and maintaining a spare controller for several compressors. You can upload the specific controller configuration from a USB flash drive provided with each controller which will store the personality for a particular compressor.

Patriot LGX

The Patriot LGX is a software replacement specifically for the Turbologix brand of controllers by Air Relief Inc.  Typical applications require just a software change on the PLC and HMI.

Features of the Patriot LGX include:

• A controller that provides for all pressure controls, temperature controls, and monitoring of all functions to provide alarm and shutdown for vibration, low oil pressure, high/low oil temperature, high inter-stage temperatures and seal air pressure.

• The controller also allows adjustment of all operating parameters, alarm and trip set points through the HMI.

• Nonproprietary programming allowing plant personnel to troubleshoot and make changes to the existing program.
