    4 - BOARD FUNCTIONS: DESCRIPTION 4.1 Control selection There are 4 types of control are possible depending on the value of parameter A07. ● On/Off: In-series control by activation of fan stages. ● Variable speed control: Fan speed control by EC motor. Mixed 1: Variable speed control on one stage then activation of the other On/Off stages depending on the speed of the EC fan ●...
  • Page 10 4.1.2 Speed control Used to control the speed of all fans with EC motors. ● The board sends a 0-10V signal to control the EC. ● The following diagram illustrates the output signal according to the measurement taken on the fluid (temperature or pressure) and the setpoint.
  • Page 11 4.1.4 Mixed control 2 Used for variable speed control on stage 1. The other fan stages are controlled in series when the 1st stage is at 100%. The following diagram illustrates this operating mode for a system with 6 control stages. Hysteresis Stage 6 STAGE no.6 Hysteresis Stage 5...
  • Page 12: Machine Automatic Operation Control

    ● Control stage No. 1 (EC fan): The control signal (0 / 10V) of the stage # 1 varies as follows: A108 A107 - Measurement = A121 (or A122) – A106 → 0V Temp Temp - Measurement = A121 (or A122) + A106 → 10V outside outside Stage no 1...
  • Page 13 ● Optimised water consumption (A113 = WATER): The water misting does not start until all the stages are on and the measurement is above the value of parameter A200. With On/Off or Mixed control In this case, misting is controlled as an additional control stage. When the drycooler is at 100% power and the fluid temperature continues to increase to the value of parameter A200, misting is activated.
