Compressed Air Best Practices - May 2008 - (Page 21) Compressed Air Industry AUTOMOTIVE ASSEMBLY | 05/08 | The PLCs were programmed to both automatically cycle the modules during normal testing or provide for manual control so that individual solenoids could be activated for leakage checks. The cycle rate used for testing was 34 cycles per minute and the test duration equated to 20 years of intensive operation: 2,102,400 cycles calculated; assuming one (1) complete kneeling cycle every five (5) minutes for a non-stop duration of 20 years. Shown below in Figure 5 is the profile for the cycle testing as the modules were continuously exposed to either the summer or winter profile. Both seasonal profiles were alternated weekly throughout the entirety of the life cycle testing.
