BOGE airtelligence provis 3

provis is a MASTER controller, not a machine controller — each compressor keeps its own focus control or equivalent for safety shutdowns. The master only requests load/unload.

Manufacturer
BOGE
Display
10.1" color touch panel (provis 3); 5.7" on provis 2.
Years produced
provis 2 ~2012 – 2020; provis 3 ~2020 – present.
Power supply
100 – 240 VAC panel supply, internal 24 VDC bus.
Ambient range
0 – 45 °C.
Protection rating
IP54 front on wall-mount enclosure.
Relay outputs
Per-compressor enable relays, common alarm, dryer/dryer-bank enable.
Replaces
airtelligence provis 2, airtelligence 1
Used on
  • Mixed BOGE fleets
  • Third-party compressors via volt-free / Modbus interface
Features
  • Master sequencing / band control for up to 16 compressors (4 VSD)
  • Predictive load management — starts the next machine before pressure drops out of band
  • Energy and specific-power reporting (kWh per 100 m³ / per 100 cfm)
  • Zone pressure control with independent setpoint bands
  • Leak and off-shift consumption trending
Interfaces
  • Ethernet Modbus TCP
  • Profinet / Profibus (option)
  • RS-485 Modbus RTU
  • Web browser dashboard
  • BOGE connect cloud link
Sensor inputs
  • Network pressure (up to 4 zones)
  • Flow / dew point (option)
  • Compressor status via bus or volt-free contacts
Fault code lookup
First checks
  • Verify slave address is unique
  • Check 120 Ω termination at both ends only
  • Confirm baud/parity match at the machine controller
First checks
  • 4–20 mA loop check at the master terminal
  • Isolation valve on the sensing line closed?
  • Compare against a calibrated gauge
First checks
  • Check each unit is in REMOTE / bus mode
  • Verify no local unload setpoint below the master band
  • Look for a large leak or a new demand
First checks
  • Read the fault at the machine controller
  • Confirm the unit is enabled in the master schedule

Fault list is non-exhaustive and firmware-dependent. Always confirm against the controller’s on-screen help or OEM manual.

Sensor pin resistance & signal values

Pin-level resistance and signal values for the sensor types this controller uses. Works offline. De-energise the panel and lift one lead before ohming any element.

Wiring notes
  • Wall-mounted panel — keep the Modbus trunk daisy-chained, never a star topology
  • Volt-free interface for non-BOGE machines: one enable output per compressor plus a run-feedback input
  • Network pressure sensor belongs downstream of the dryer and receiver, in stable flow, not on a dead leg
Known issues & field notes
  • Mixing bus-controlled and contact-controlled machines can cause hunting if local unload setpoints overlap the master band — stagger local setpoints above the master band
  • provis 2 web UI needs legacy Java/older browsers; provis 3 is HTML5

Operator / service / administrator levels set at commissioning. Administrator level is dealer-held.
