4.7.1 Setup Operation
The SETUP OPERATION menu permits the review and/or adjustment of the unit configuration. This
may include:
Cold Start Delay
This feature, also referred to as Positive Start or Winter Start Kit, allows for the low pressure switch
to be ignored for the programmed time during a cold start of the compressor. Entering a “0” for this
time will bypass this feature. A “1”, will bypass the low pressure switch for one minute, a “2” for two
minutes, etc. The programmed value can be from 0 to 3 minutes. This delay is factory set to 0 for
water cooled, glycol-cooled, and GLYCOOL
units. Typically, only air cooled units need a “Winter
Start” time.
Auto Restart Delay
This feature allows for the unit to restart automatically after a loss of power. The programmed value
is .1 minute (6 seconds) intervals. A programmed value of zero (0) would require the user to manually
press the ON/OFF switch to start the unit, i.e. no auto restart. The purpose of this feature is to pre-
vent several units from starting at the same time after a loss of power. The message “Restart delay --
Please wait” will be displayed when the system is in the AUTO RESTART mode. (It is suggested mul-
tiple unit installations be programmed with different auto restart times.)
IR Flush Overfill (infrared humidifiers only)
An autoflush system automatically controls a water makeup valve to maintain proper level in the
infrared humidifier water pan during humidifier operation. If humidification is needed and 15 hours
have elapsed since the last time the humidifier was on, then the humidifier is held off until the valve
completes an initial fill of the humidifier pan. This pre-fill is about 30 seconds. The valve continues to
fill and flush the pan for about 4 minutes.
During humidifier operation, with the flush rate set at the default of 150%, the valve is opened peri-
odically to add water to the pan (about 40 seconds every 9 and 1/2 minutes of humidifier operation).
This adds enough water to the pan to cause about a third of the total water used to be flushed out the
overflow standpipe located in the humidifier pan. This action helps to remove solids from the pan. The
flush rate is adjustable from 110% to 500%. If the water quality is poor, it may be desirable to
increase the water flushing action above the normal 150% rate. Also, if the supply water pressure is
low, the flush rate adjustment can be increased so that sufficient water level is maintained during
humidification.
Chilled Water/Hot Water/Econ-O-Coil Flush
This feature will flush the respective coil for three (3) minutes after the programmed number of hours of
nonuse. For example, if the flush time is programmed with 24 hours on a hot water reheat type system,
and heating is not required for a 24 hour period, the hot water valve will be opened for 3 minutes to
allow the coil to be flushed. The programmed value can be from 0 (no flush) to 99 (99 hours of nonuse).
Display in Degrees
The control can be set to display readings and setpoints in either degrees Fahrenheit (F) or Celsius (C).
