EVCO S.p.A. Vcolor 539 M & L | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144VC539E104 6.2.2 Setting/Making changes to an automatic cycle Before starting up a cycle, it is possible to consult and modify the settings of each of the stages in the aging cycle.
EVCO S.p.A. Vcolor 539 M & L | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144VC539E104 REGULATIONS Temperature regulation Temperature regulation for all phases of the equipment is in the neutral zone in which two relative values are set one above and one below the temperature setpoint, thus creating a zone inside which the loads for heating and cooling are not activated.
EVCO S.p.A. Vcolor 539 M & L | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144VC539E104 Humidity regulation In all phases where this is required, the humidity is regulated with a humidity transducer enabled in the neutral zone in which two values are set, one above and one below the humidity setpoint, thus creating a zone inside which the loads for humidification and dehumidification are not activated.
EVCO S.p.A. Vcolor 539 M & L | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144VC539E104 If parameter E12 is set at 1, the generator output will only be active when the humidity falls below the neutral zone value (set by parameter rU9) beyond the threshold set by rU8 (humidification differential).
EVCO S.p.A. Vcolor 539 M & L | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144VC539E104 LOAD MANAGEMENT Compressor management Activation of the compressor depends on the length of the delay between two switch-ons (parameter C1), on the minimum duration of the compressor-off time (parameter C2), on the delayed switch-on of the compressor from the device power-on (parameter C0) and on the minimum duration of the compressor-on time (parameter C3).
EVCO S.p.A. Vcolor 539 M & L | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144VC539E104 To adapt the phase-cutting regulation (T.D.F.) to all types of 230 VAC single-phase motors, a manual evaporator fan calibration procedure is recommended. Set F23 at 0% and F24 at 100%.
EVCO S.p.A. Vcolor 539 M & L | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144VC539E104 8.7.3 Managing the humidifier output with a transducer and an instant generation humidifier (rU0 = 0, E12 = 1) The humidifier output is activated when the humidity value inside the cabinet falls below the neutral zone value (rU9) beyond the threshold set by the humidification differential (rU8) performing off/on cycles, the duration being set by parameters rU15 and rU16.
EVCO S.p.A. Vcolor 539 M & L | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144VC539E104 If the aging cycle goes into the rest or air change phase, the sterilisation/oxygenation cycle is paused. If the door is opened, if there is a defrosting cycle or if the evaporator fan is deactivated, the sterilisation cycle will be SUSPENDED and will resume when the evaporator fan is reactivated.
