3. SIMBOLS

It is compulsory to carefully read the operating handbook before performing any operation on the
equipment: if the equipment is started by unskilled operators it could cause serious damages to people and
things.

The operators responsible for the equipment use must be well trained. Therefore, the customer must check
that the personnel training is suitable and when necessary, ask the builder to hold special training sessions.

All maintenance, adjustment setting and replacement operations described in this Instruction manual must
be carried out ONLY AFTER having switched off the equipment and disconnected the equipment plug from
the main line socket.

The operator must wear special anti-slip and resistant shoes.

The protection systems on the equipment have been provided by the manufacturer to protect the operator
during his operation on the equipment. These protection guards must NEVER be removed for any reason
whatsoever while the equipment is running.

Never use the equipment, which is equipped with an electric motor, in the presence of natural gas, petrol
vapours or other inflammable vapours.

No unauthorised operator must pass or stop near the lifting and handling area of the equipment elements,
while the operators responsible for such operations will have to keep at a suitable distance to avoid being hit
by the elements hanging in the air.
The electric and earth connection must be carried out by qualified and skilled operators according to the
regulations in force.

It is strongly advised to protect the user’s main line from overloading by installing a safety switch
(magnetothermal switches) on the line.

The presence of magnetic or electromagnetic fields near the equipment could compromise the correct
function of the electrical or electronic parts. The ideal temperature and humidity levels for correct
equipment performance is standard room temperature.

Check that the electric circuit is duly protected and that it corresponds to the motor features: the equipment
is equipped with an identification plate indicating the power, the frequency and the supply voltage.
Check that the equipment is provided with an earth connection and with a differential switch compliant with
the regulations in force on top of the supply cable.The Builder will not accept any responsibility for the
damages caused to people and things by a wrong ground connection.
Only use the recommended types of gas and liquid: in case a different type is used, the Customer must first
check the physical-chemical characteristics (included in the documentation attached to the element) and
check the similarities with the recommended one: in case they are not similar, the Customer must contact
the Builder about the product use.

Before any adjustment, maintenance and replacement operation the operator must wait for a while since
the equipment has been stopped, so that the parts subject to heating during the normal equipment
functioning can cool down.

15.4. Starting of condensing water pump

If this optional is requested, a signal is provided to control the condensing unit, this allows it to be switched on and off.

15.5. Temperature retransmission by means of 0-10V / 0-20mA / 4-20mA analogue output

Requesting the temperature retransmission optional accessory provides a 0-10V / 0-20mA / 4-20mA analogue output that will
repeat the value of the adjustment probe converted into voltage if 0-10V voltage output was requested when placing the order, or
current if a 0-20mA or 4-20mA current output was requested when placing the order.

This proportional value of the adjustment probe has the option to set the minimum scaling limits where the minimum scaling value
is the start scale value and maximum scaling is the full scale value.
The rough value is the voltage or current value obtained from the converted adjustment probe value’s ratio.
The scaled value is the adjustment probe reading.

It is possible to view the temperature retransmission page by clicking the settings menu

icon . Click the temperature/remote set-point icon and enter the

operator password 1111. Then click the process temp icon , which will
display the following screen.
This is a read-only screen and CANNOT be edited.
If you want to edit the minimum and maximum scaling limits, it is possible to enter the
client’s password.

15.6. ON-AIR remote assistance

ON-AIR is designed to manage, monitor and support especially large installations, for which it is difficult to have
complete control:
- The device must be placed indoors, in a sheltered position.
- Do not place close to heat sources or explosive items.
- Ensure there is sufficient space for the device to dissipate heat, and to perform any maintenance operations
- Periodically check no dust accumulates on or around it.
- Comply with the operating and storage temperatures set out in the table:

The PG (electric wire inlet) to make the connections are in the lower part of the device. ON-AIR can be connected via
LAN (local area network) or WAN (wide area network). In this case, the connection will be a WAN type (cable RJ45).

ABF-000042-01-EN USE AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL

16.2. Operating Principle

The Air Mix Kit system is an automatic proportional system intended to provide free cooling that drastically reduces energy
consumption, as it is able to harness the outdoor air, when conditions allow, to cool the process air.

In the case of ABFevo equipments the system allows two types of operation:

- Total free-cooling (green): outdoor air is used, mixed with indoor air to completely cool the process air (compressor
OFF).

- Partial free-cooling (blue): the outdoor air is only used to cool the process air while optimizing the rotational speed of
the compressor (only ABFevo inverter, compressor ON at low speed).

Air Mix Kit systems are equipped with an electronic control that optimizes performance and energy savings, making the most of
the concepts mentioned above.

The outgoing air temperature, during free cooling, is modulated by a three-way damper. The system is activated only if the outdoor
air temperature is below a predetermined value (dynamically linked to the set-point value of the equipment).

In ABFevo non inverter equipments if the outgoing air temperature exceeds the expected range after a specified period, the
compressor operates at full capacity and the damper mixes the air entering the ABF to optimize the operation of the compressor.
In ABFevo inverter equipments if the outgoing air temperature exceeds the expected range after a specified period, the
compressor operates at partial speed (through inverter) and damper mixes the air entering the ABF.

In any case, if the outgoing air temperature falls in the value set for a specific period, the ABFevo remain inactive. The control
system allows, in winter, 100% lower power consumption compared to summer.

ADVANTAGES

 Lower operating costs during winter and mid-season periods.


 Free production of refrigerated air in winter.
 Longer compressor service life thanks to a great reduction in operationingworking hours.
 Decreased maintenance costs.

Warning:
For connection it is recommended to:
- Use rigid and smooth air ducts,
- Verify that the length of ducts is compatible with the prevalence of the fan,
- Use curves with radius/diameter ratio equal to > 1.0
- Protect the fresh air intake against the aspiration of water and debris.

16.3. Components

The Air Mix Kit free-cooling system consists of:


- Three-way damper with modulating actuator
- Outdoor air sensor
- Air intake sensor
- Three-way damper fixing kit
- Sensor fixing kit

16.5. Air temperature sensors installation


The temperature sensors have a degree of protection IP65, on consequence they don’t need protections against rain nor
humidity. In general sensors shall be installed in shaded area (to avoid direct sun radiation). In the case a sun shield is
