8. Engine Stall Protection (ESP)
When ENGINE STALL PROTECTION (ESP) is enabled, the H30 can be used to engage and disengage feed
rollers that may be overloading the engine, causing it to stall. One of the H30’s digital outputs can be configured
to engage the feed forward solenoid at a set RPM limit, while a second digital output can be used to reverse the
feed direction for a set amount of time (0.0 to 1.0 seconds) when a low RPM limit is reached. Reversing the
feed direction is optional, the H30 can be configured to simply stop feeding until the engine RPM’s increase to a
minimum threshold speed and then re-engage the feed forward solenoid.
ESP can be used with single- or dual-valve feed systems. See the following sections for details on each system
are below.
ESP - SINGLE VALVE
A single-valve feed system is comprised of a single 3-position valve that uses two solenoids to control hydraulic
oil flow, and ultimately the feed direction.
ENGAGE SPEED
Minimum engine RPM at which the feed rollers will begin
feeding forward
DISENGAGE SPEED
Engine RPM that the feed rollers will stop (and reverse if
enabled)
FEED FORWARD
The digital output used to control the feed forward solenoid
FEED REVERSE
The digital output used to control the feed reverse solenoid
REVERSE TIME
Length of time the feed rollers will be reversed
VALVE DELAY
Solenoid time delay between switching from forward to
reverse and vice versa (used to minimize stress on the
hydraulic system)
MANUAL FORWARD
Digital input used to manually forward the feed rollers when
the engine is running
MANUAL REVERSE
Digital input used to manually reverse the feed rollers when
the engine is running
