Warnings Read the warnings below carefully. They provide important information regarding safe installation, use and maintenance. Store this manual with the utmost care for future reference. The device is built to a professional standard. Its durability and electrical and mechanical reliability will be more efficient if it is used properly and maintenance is carried out on a regular basis.
▪ If you decide to no longer use a device, it is recommended to make it inoperable by unplugging it from the mains. ▪ Make sure it is switched off electrically (both polarities), disconnecting the conductors from the contact points of the mains by opening the omnipolar switch with at least 3 mm between the contacts.

Wall installation The wall-mounting plugs are supplied with the device. Always use a plug suitable to the available support. The layout of the holes to be drilled on the support is displayed in Figure 2. Covers (A) x 4 Fig. 2 - Measurements for wall fixing 226l x 146h To access the 4 installation holes, remove the covers on the installation points (A) found on each corner of the instrument, use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the four screws underneath the covers, then open the front panel (see Fig.2).
It is recommended to use voltage protections, check the earthing system and, when other equipment is connected in parallel, use a transducer. Furthermore, ETATRON recommends installing a UPS (genset) to assure continuity thus ensuring no data are lost.

NO FLOW shows the absence of water flow in the probe socket of the sensor: this is only valid when using a proximity sensor and the "Flow sensor"...
• METERING ON SETPOINT: the mA output controls metering pumps suited to processing an input mA signal. 4 mA corresponds to the minimum EC value (0 μS), therefore the connected mA unit operates at the minimum programmed capacity. 20 mA corresponds to the maximum measured value (according to the selected K factor range) which may be 200 μS, 2000 μS, 20 mS, 100 mS, therefore the connected mA unit operates at the maximum programmed capacity.
PROGRAMMING FUNCTIONS Purge SV Solenoid Valve control The instrument eSelect M – CD COOL offers two modes for purge operations (water drain) of the SV. TIMER mode: for easy programming or in case of conductivity probe fault, the operator may enable the Timer mode; the SV is driven by the internal timer regardless of the conductivity reading in the cooling tower.
INHIBITOR control The instrument eSelect M – CD COOL offers four modes for inhibitor metering operations. DIRECT PURGE: starts dispensing the inhibitor when the purge SV is open (works parallel to the SV) Mode Selection DIRECT PURGE: the inhibitor is dispensed during SV purge operations. Max Metering time Selects the maximum inhibitor dispensing time.
Real-time clock Sets the date and exact time driving the internal timer according to the real-time clock Selects the flow sensor (proximity probe): the ETATRON flow sensor is normally open (NO). This status must be Flow Control enabled while commissioning from the SETTINGS menu.

BIOCIDE MENU The instrument eSelect M – CD COOL offers TWO modes for Biocide metering operations. Most cooling tower systems include two biocide programs to assure efficient disinfection quality. NOTE: the Biocide function requires using an On-Off metering pump suited to processing the input contacts generated by the internal timer.
