    1. SAFETY 1.1. Warnings and notices of warnings This safety information warns the user of risks and shows how the risks can be avoided. In this documentation, warnings are used with the following hazard levels to draw attention to immediate hazards and important safety instructions: SYMBOLS This symbol warns of an imminent and extremely dangerous situation in which failure...
  • Page 6: Hazard Warnings

    Hazard warning 2 Since different devices each may have a special medium contained within, Eder Spirotech cannot predict which medium the respective system will use. This also applies to harmful mixtures of media that may be used in the system.
  • Page 7 A filling and emptying tap is located on the lower flange of the container. This is also used for maintenance purposes, whereby harmful and hot system media can escape when the tap is opened. In this case there is a risk of scalding! Figure 4: Filling and emptying tap of the vessel...
  • Page 8 WARNING Work on the device may only be carried out by trained specialist personnel. The device must be de-energised before carrying out any electrical work! NOTE Illustrations in this document may differ from the model supplied depending on the type and equipment. NOTE EDER devices are subjected to a functional test at the factory before delivery and the device is filled with a frost-protected ready-mixed test water.

    3. GENERAL 3.1. Tender text SpiroExpand TopControl Modular ETCM for loss-free absorption of the expansion volume and for pressure stabilisation in closed heating, air-conditioning and cooling systems. Manufactured in accordance with the EN 12828 construction guidelines. Attractive, self-contained unit in self-supporting, sound-insulating design for modular combination with unpressurised expansion tanks (max.
  • Page 10: Assembly

    4. ASSEMBLY 4.1. Setting up the device The device must be set up on a level, solid floor. Any unevenness must be levelled out. Setting the device up outdoors is not permitted. For devices with adjustable feet, it is also important to ensure that they are set up vertically. Storage: Ambient temperature min./max: -18 °C/40 °C Storage must be protected from precipitation and direct sunlight.

    4.2. Degassing module multicontrol EMAE, backfeed module multicontrol EMCF Devices in the topcontrol modular series are supplied ex works without EMAE degassing module or EMCF backfeed module. Retrofitting is possible at any time. These modules are installed in accordance with the instructions supplied with the respective module.

    WARNING Devices intended for connection to the water supply system must be fitted on site with devices that reliably prevent non-drinking water from being siphoned back into the water supply system. 4.4. Electrical connection ETCMs are multiphase devices that are equipped with a flexible mains connection cable and are intended for permanent connection to a permanently installed mains connection.

  • Page 24: External Setpoint

    7. EXTERNAL SETPOINT With devices from the TopControl series, it is possible to specify an external setpoint for the upper working pressure using an analogue signal (4-20 mA) and a bus module. This is required, for example, if the working pressure has to change depending on the operation of the overall system (e.g.
  • Page 25 Example: An upper working pressure of 20.0 bar is to be set on a ETCM-S4.7-23.5 control unit. The control technology must therefore send a signal with 12 mA. Regardless of the size of the sent setpoint signal, the upper working pressure for this type can never be set lower than 2.6 bar and higher than 23.5 bar (characteristic curve In addition, the upper working pressure can be limited by the settings "Min.

    7.2. Working pressure specification (0-40 bar) via bus module: The specified value of the external setpoint can cover a pressure range of 0-40 bar. Depending on the device type, however, the usable upper working pressure is always limited. To limit this range even further, the values "Minimum upper working pressure (bus module)"...

If necessary, switch off the device function using the Activate device function button (system ON/OFF) (refuse manual device release).
  • Page 29 • With the MCF backfeed module installed, switch to manual mode (operating level 3: Manual mode -> Outputs). Switch on the "Backfeed valve" output (Manual "1") and fill the tank with it until a continuous jet of the system medium emerges from the pump vent valve (Detail A), then switch the "Backfeed valve" output back to automatic mode (Auto "1").

  • Page 31 NOTE The initial pressure build-up can take some time, depending on the size of the system, as the pressure must first be propagated through the entire connected system. Step 12: If the MAE degassing module is installed, the "Degassing module" operating mode must be selected. Incorrect selection will not guarantee correct degassing function!

    10. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE 10.1. Cleaning During operation, dirt particles are separated from the system at the built-in strainer. These impurities are gathered in the strainer and are consequently lead to the reduced passage of the strainer. This may cause problems with the function of the device.
