Hello,

I installed a 12mm pump in my ASV (aquarium sumps ventilation), and it's working pretty well so far. Now, I'd like to adjust the pump's performance curve so that the mg/H (milligrams per hour) values align with the other performance curves.
I've already started working on that as well, and it seems to be looking pretty good so far. I simply took the standard settings and adjusted the pump characteristic curve until the actual performance matched the standard specifications.

My question now is simply, what kind of voltage is that in the pump performance curve?
In measurement block 001, you can read a voltage that, according to the repair manual, represents the control slide position voltage. This voltage is always about 0.5V higher than the value programmed in the pump characteristic curve. Is this due to a changed base setting of the pump (due to piston replacement), or are these simply different voltages?

Which of the pump voltages are actually pulsed? Is it the voltage from the control unit (STG) to the pump, or the voltage that returns?

Regards,
Benjamin.

To the question of which voltages are clocked, I already found an answer in the technical article: all of them are clocked. https://community.dieselschrauber.org/en/viewtopic.php?t=3066

I would still like to know if the voltage of the main switching device (MSW) differs from that of the reserve switching device (RSW) in the case of series pumps.

Is there a lookup table for converting inductance to volts? Or how is the voltage value generated in measurement block 001 for RSW?

Regards,
Benjamin.

Hi Benjamin,

"As far as I know, the effective voltage at the MSW is not published anywhere. At what values do you want to determine a (dis)agreement?"
Is there actually a lookup table for converting inductance to volts??? Or how is the voltage value generated in measurement block 001 for RSW?}
By comparing the inductances of the reference and measurement coils using a 10 kHz signal, and somehow incorporating this ratio into the specified voltage.
A smaller inductance of the measuring coil results in a lower voltage, and vice versa.
Sorry, but I don't know any more details than that.
