Operation Automatic Eco Mode Four weeks after commissioning the Automatic Eco-mode will be activated to reduce the daily run time automatically. At this point, it can be expected that most dissolved gasses are removed (in the stated operating window). The Automatic Eco mode makes the unit run for 25% of the default daily runtime (2 hours a day) and will continue until another setting is selected.
If necessary the period of intensive degassing can be activated manually by setting the booster function; menu item no. 3 to “01”. Spirotech advises to do this after any system intervention, like; maintenance, water replenishment or after a leakage in the system.
Operation Example b 3.3 • The unit has been degassing for 3.3 x 10 hours. • Total degassing time is 3.3 x 100 = 330 hours. 6.1.10 Weekend break The weekend break function will prevent the unit from running in the weekend. When menu item no.
Operation Shut down the unit 1. Push the stop button. The unit finishes the actual process and stops. 2. Push the on/off button for 3 seconds. The unit shuts down. Note: The status LED shows that the unit is still energized. 3.
