At the first start-up, check the correct operation of all electrical connections.
ATTENTION
Before starting up these machines, make sure all personnel involved have read and understood the “ Safety” chapter of
this manual and follow the procedure of chapter “ Starting”.
ATTENTION
At the first start-up after a stop of several days, make sure the casing heater of each compressor has been activated for
at least 12 hours before pressing the start button.
ATTENTION
For pump models where the manufacturer requires it, before starting check that it turns freely in manual mode (see ch.
“4.9 Pump serving the Thermal Mass circuit”).
NOTE
The pump must never run dry.
Units in the HPD range are equipped with an electronic controller that manages correct operation of the appliance on the
basis of signals read on the analogue and digital inputs.
This quick guide contains a list of the main functions of the electronic board. For more detailed information consult
Chapter 7 “Electronic controller”.
0.1 Unit start/stop

The unit can be started and stopped as follows:
• Using the keypad
• Using the clock (inactive function)
• Using a digital input configured as remote ON/OFF
NOTE
In case of a power loss, when power is restored the unit will be ON if it was ON at the time of power loss, and OFF if it was
OFF.
0.1.1 Start-up using the keypad

With unit OFF (stand-by) press and release to switch the unit on or off in chiller mode. With the unit on, the LED
is lit.
The instrument is in stand-by when is off. Stand-by mode is set each time the unit is powered off from chiller operating
mode. Also in stand-by the controller makes it possible to:
• Show the parameter readings on the display
• Manage alarm situations, displaying alarms and signalling them.
0.1.2 Start-up using time bands
This function is available if the controller features a clock.
Parameters ES01÷ES06 allow to set the time band start and end times
Parameters ES07÷ES13 allow to enable the time bands for each day of the week.
0.1.3 S t a rt - u p u s i n g d i g i t a l i n p u t
Using a digital input configured as remote ON/OFF that depending on the polarity selected, active, activates operation in
OFF:
• Assumes priority over the keypad
• From the keypad you can start and stop the unit only with the input disabled
With the input disabled, the instrument returns to the status prior to activation.
For details concerning the connection, refer to the electrical diagram.

G EN ER AL I N F O R M A T I O N
The units described in this manual are designed to remove the moisture from a flow of “compressed gas” with working
pressure values from 25 to 50 bar (from 363 to 725 psi) and to bring the gas to the dew point temperature of 3 °C (37.4 °F).
Since, in the majority of applications, the gas to be dried is compressed air, hereinafter the term “compressed air” is used for
the sake of simplicity, even though the specific gas in an individual application may be different. The main feature of these
dryers consists in the use of a cooling cycle water chiller and a group of tube core heat exchangers. Hereinafter the
expression “PRESSURE” is used to indicate relative pressure.
Air-condensed units:
In most applications the gas to be dried is “compressed air” and this is why this term will be used even if the gas to be dried
is different.
These dryers are equipped with a refrigerant circuit with a scroll compressor that is utilised to cool the compressed air to a
temperature designated “pressure dew point”.
Water-condensed units:
In the majority of applications the liquid in the user circuit is water so henceforth the term “WATER” will be utilised, even if
the liquid in the user service is different (for example mixtures of water and propylene glycol).
This manual has been written for the installer, the maintenance technician and the end-user of the dryer.
Here below the term “pressure” will be used to indicate the gauge pressure.
The following symbols, with explanations, are found on the adhesive labels attached to the machine, stamped onto the
structure work, and in the overall layout drawings and cooling circuit diagrams:

This manual, which is addressed to users, installers, and service personnel, supplies all the technical information
ENGLISH
required to install and work with the unit and to perform the routine maintenance operations required to maximise its
working life.
Use only genuine parts when carrying out routine maintenance or repairs.
Requests for SPARE PARTS and any INFORMATION concerning the unit must be made to your dealer or nearest service
centre, specifying the MODEL and SERIAL NUMBER shown on the unit’s dataplate and on the last page of this manual.
9 Chapter 2 - Safety
EN CHAPTER 2
ENGLISH
SAFETY
This unit is designed to ensure the best guarantees of safety and efficiency in its intended use, on the condition that it is
installed, commissioned, and serviced in compliance with the instructions given in this manual.
The manual must therefore be studied by all those who want to install, use or maintain the unit.
The unit contains electrical components operating at mains voltage, moving parts and pressurised parts.
All work on the unit must be carried out only after disconnecting the electrical supply, and after all pressure has been
discharged from the system (for this purpose check the air pressure gauge on the machine).
Maintenance operations involving work inside the unit must be performed by skilled and adequately qualified personnel
equipped with suitable protection means (active and passive, e.g. work gloves) to ensure maximum safety.
Keep unauthorized persons (e.g. children) away from the place of installation of the unit.
2.1 General
When handling or maintaining the unit and all auxiliary equipment, personnel must operate with care observing all
instructions concerning health and safety at the installation site.
ATTENTION
Numerous accidents that occur during operation and maintenance of the units are caused by failure to comply with
basic safety rules and precautions.
An accident can often be avoided by recognising a situation that is potentially hazardous.

The user must ensure that all personnel involved in operating and servicing the unit have read and understood all the
warnings, precautions, prohibitions and notes given in this manual and affixed to the unit. Improper operation or maintenance
of the unit and auxiliary equipment can be dangerous and can cause serious or fatal accidents.
We cannot anticipate every possible circumstance which might constitute a potential hazard.
The warnings in this manual are therefore not all-inclusive.
If the user adopts operational procedures or uses tools or working procedures that are not specifically recommended, he must
take care to ensure that the unit and the auxiliary equipment are not damaged or made unsafe and that no risks emerge in
relation to persons or property. Any improper use of the unit will relieve the manufacturer from any liability for possible
personal injury or property damage.
Arbitrary modifications made to the unit will automatically invalidate all forms of guarantee provided by the manufacturer.
2.2 General precautions

2.2.1 C o mp re s s e d g a s e s t o b e d r i e d
The compressed gases that can be dried must be compatible with the unit's construction materials (carbon steel, cast iron,
stainless Steel, copper and copper alloys) and can be, for example air, nitrogen, argon and helium. In any case they must not
cause corrosion dangerous for the pressure vessels and fire in event of leakage, they must be included among the non-
hazardous fluids classified in group 2 of directive 2014/68/UE.
2.2.2 Precautions on the use of compressed air (for air-condensed units)
If using compressed air for cleaning purposes, ensure safety regulations are followed and appropriate clothing and eye
protection is worn. Never direct compressed air on to your skin or at other people. Never use compressed air to clean loose
dirt from clothing. Before releasing compressed air through a hose make sure that the free end is held securely so that it
cannot whip and cause injury.
2.2.3 User circuit liquids (for water-condensed units)
ATTENTION
The liquid solution contains propylene glycol. Small leaks do not generate serious environmental problems, but the
liquid should nonetheless be collected, and disposed of via specialised firms authorised to handle these substances, in
accordance with the laws and regulations of the country where the machine is installed.
Chapter 2 - Safety
10
2.2.4 Water quality and treatment to the condenser (for water-condensed units) EN
If the water used to cool the condensers is taken from open systems (evaporator tower, aquifer/well, water course, lake) this
may result in the accumulation of organic and inorganic fouling on the inside walls of the pipes.
ENGLISH
Such fouling acts as a thermal resistor, impairing fluid-to-fluid heat exchange, and as a pressure restrictor hence increasing
the pressure drop value.
Water quality can therefore have a significant effect on the duty and working life of the exchanger.
The user is responsible for establishing the quality of feed water and ensuring it is compatible with the condenser
construction materials.
To do this, have a sample chemically analysed (to establish water hardness, pH level and sediment contents). This operation
must be entrusted to the qualified personnel of specialised laboratories.
There are two possible methods for internal defouling of pipes:
• Mechanical: using tube cleaning brushes
• Chemical: by flushing pipes with commercial defouling solutions (chosen on the basis of the type of organic or
inorganic contamination). This defouling methods must be carried out exclusively by qualified personnel.
We anyway recommend installing a strainer upline from the condenser at all times.
Condenser water limit characteristics:
ATTENTION
Install a mechanical filter with a maximum mesh size of 0.46 mm (0.0181 in) max in the presence of the water regulating
valve or modulating valve.
Install a mechanical filter with a size of 1 mm (0.0393in) in the absence of the water regulating valve, the filter must be
installed as close as possible to the inlet connection to the condenser.
EN 2.3 Lifting, transport and storage precautions

Avoid injury by using a hoist to lift heavy loads.
Check all chains, hooks, shackles and slings are in good condition and are of the correct capacity.
ENGLISH
They must be tested and approved according to local safety regulations.

Cables, chains or ropes must never be attached directly to lifting eyes.
Always use an appropriate shackle or hook properly positioned. Arrange lifting cables so that there are no sharp bends.
Use a spreader bar to avoid lateral loading of hooks and eyebolts.
When a load is lifted from the ground keep well clear of the area beneath the load and the immediately surrounding area.
Keep lifting acceleration and speed well within safety limits and never leave a suspended load attached to a hoist any longer
than strictly necessary.
The weight values shown in the following table were obtained with the unit tank full and with axial fans (if present).
The manufacturer does not supply load spreaders, lifting straps or hooks with the unit.
Units on pallets can be handled with a forklift truck in compliance with the diagram below.

DESCRIPTION
4.1 Operating principle
All dryers described in this manual operate in accordance with the same principle.
Their main feature is that they are equipped with a water chiller with refrigerant circuit and a series of tube core heat
exchangers.
The chiller produces chilled water, which is utilised to cool the compressed air.
The exchangers unit consists of two beam columns (air to air exchanger and air to water) and condensate separator with
double horizontal demister.
The refrigerant compressor is controlled by an electronic control unit that regulates the dew-point temperature and maintains
it within the preset limits.
4.2 Air, water and refrigerant circuit

See attached drawings.
4.2.1 Air circuit
The warm and humid compressed air entering the dryer flows through the air/air exchanger section. Here the incoming
airflow is precooled by the cold and dry compressed air leaving the air/water exchanger. The precooled compressed air
reaches the dew point temperature at the outlet of the air/water exchanger tubes (in most applications this corresponds to a
temperature of approximately 3°C/ 37°F). The precooled air then enters a high efficiency condensate separator (demister type
with stainless steel mesh) where the condensate produced during the cooling process is precipitated and collected on the base
of the chamber. Two timer controlled solenoid valves (one on the air/air exchanger and one on the air/water exchanger) open
at regular intervals for a preset time and discharge the condensate, which is expelled due to the pressure of the compressed
air. The dry air departing from the separate flows through the air/air exchanger section again, where it is warmed while
simultaneously precooling the hot and humid air entering the dryer. This air/air exchanger both reduces the amount of energy
required to dry a given flow of air and also has the benefit of reducing the relative humidity thereby avoiding the risk of the
formation of condensate at the dryer outlet.
4.2.2 Water circuit
The water circuit is composed of a tank accommodating a finned core heat exchanger. The water flows through the core, in
contact with the fins, and is cooled by the refrigerant, which evaporates in the exchanger tubes.
The thus-cooled water is drawn in by a centrifugal pump, which transfers it directly to the air/water exchanger.
The pump outlet is connected to the tank inlet via a bypass pipe designed to ensure a minimum flow of water through the
pump in the event in which a pipe at any point of the hydraulic circuit is inadvertently closed. The pump outlet is monitored
by a water pressure gauge located on the unit's control panel, where it shows the water pressure at the unit outlet.
NOTE
4.3 Components
Data for materials are referred to standard units. Non-standard materials may be utilised in order to meet specific
requirements. In this case refer to the offer data.
The units are basically composed of the following parts:
• Refrigerant compressor
• Condenser
• Evaporator
• Tank
• Pump
• Frame/cabinet
• Electronic controller
• Water circuit pipelines
• Compressed air exchanger/s
• Air in/out manifold couplings
21 Chapter 4 - Description
EN 4.3.1 Refrigerant circuit

The units feature a single refrigerant circuit with one or two compressors connected in parallel (tandem).
Each refrigerant circuit is equipped with the following components:
ENGLISH
• refrigerant fluid utilised R410A;

• hermetic scroll compressor;
• pressure switch for fans with On/Off control (air-condensed units);
• high and low refrigerant pressure switches;
• anti-freeze thermostat (From HPD 640/W with modulating valve and city water);
• high pressure transducer (From HPD 640/W with modulating valve and city water);
• thermostatic lamination valve complete with external pressure equalizer;
• filter dryer;
• liquid sight-glass;
• refrigerant pressure gauges;
• schrader service valves.
For more information consult the attached diagrams.
4.4 Compressors
The compressors are of the SCROLL type and are characterised by high energy efficiency, low vibration and consequent very
low noise during normal operation.
The compressors are cooled by the refrigerant on the suction line, protected against possible overheating of the windings by
an internal module that monitors windings temperature, and protected upline by thermal magnetic cutouts. These components
are housed in an enclosed compartment, but they are readily accessible.
NOTE
During the short periods of starting and stopping the compressor you may hear a metallic noise due respectively to the initial
contact between the coils and to the momentary reversal of their rotation. This noise is absolutely normal and does not affect
the reliability of the compressor.
ATTENTION
At the time of the first start following a prolonged stoppage lasting several days, ensure the crankcase heater of each
compressor is switched on at least 12 hours before pressing the start button.
4.5 Condenser
Condensation occurs in finned core coils made up of copper tubes and headers, corrugated aluminium fins, and galvanized
sheet metal shoulders.
In the HPD models, condensation occurs through shell and tube heat exchangers with “tower water” or “well water” function.
The shell and heads are carbon steel and the tubes are copper. To drain the circuit, see Chapter “10.3.2 Emptying the water
circuit on condenser side (water-condensed units)”.
4.6 Fans (condensing section, air-condensed units)

4.6.1 Axial
The axial flow fans comprise a die cast aluminium fan wheel with sickle shaped blades.
The protection rating of the fans is IP54.
All electric motors of the fans feature insulation class F to ensure they are compatible with outdoor operation in all climates.
To complete the assembly, a top safety grille (supporting the fan).
The axial flow fans are controlled in ON/OFF mode.
4.7 Evaporator
The evaporator is of the finned core type; the water flows flows in contact with the finned surface at velocities such as to
ensure low pressure drops, while the refrigerant flows through the tubes.
In these models the exchanger is protected from the risk of ice formation caused by low evaporation temperatures, with anti-
freeze strategies handled by the electronic controller on board the machine. The evaporator water outlet temperature is
controlled by a probe.
22
4.8 Tank EN
The storage tank is cylindrical .
It is protected against freezing by means of a probe managed by the electronic controller on board the machine. The unit is
ENGLISH
pre-charged with a water and propylene glycol solution, to proportions that ensure that freezing is prevented to temperatures
down to -13°C/8.6°F (30% by weight).
A level sensor in the tank serves to signal low water conditions and an insufficient level to guarantee safe operation of the
machine. In this case the level is restored by replenishing with the same solution as described below.
The standard supply includes anti-condensation cladding, a drain valve and an air bleed valve.
Drain plug
A semi-transparent plastic canister kit is supplied on the circuit containing the solution (located in an accessible point outside
the machine) to facilitate checks on the level.
With the machine running and at operating temperature, check the level of the liquid against the marks on the canister; it
must be within the upper and lower limits. If the level is below the “MIN” mark, top up the liquid. The level may exceed the
“MAX” level marking when the machine is off and in transitory operating conditions.
23 Chapter 4 - Description
EN In this case filling with the solution water and glycol is performed via the outlet at the top of the tank (closed by a plastic
cap).
Lowara pump
ENGLISH
Load/vent plug When filling the circuit with liquid check to ensure the absence of air bubbles
and contaminants. If the pump runs noisily or emits anomalous noise it may be
necessary to bleed the liquid circuit in order to prime the pump.
The procedure is as follows:
• unscrew the filler/breather plug at the top of the pump
• fill the hydraulic circuit until water starts to overflow from the
filler hole
• refit the plug and tighten it
Repeat the operation if the pump continuous to run noisily, in such a way as to
eliminate any air that had previously remained trapped in the impeller vanes.
ATTENTION
The liquid solution contains propylene glycol. Small leaks do not generate serious environmental problems, but the
liquid should nonetheless be collected, and disposed of via specialised firms authorised to handle these substances, in
accordance with the laws and regulations of the country where the machine is installed.
4.9 Pump serving the Thermal Mass circuit

The installed pump is centrifugal.
The pump seals are in silicon carbide/silicon carbide/EPDM.
ATTENTION
Bleed the circuit by unscrewing the bleed cap on the pump whenever the hydraulic circuit is filled.
NOTE
ATTENTION
For pump models where the manufacturer requires it, before

starting check that it turns freely in manual mode.
Use a flatblade screwdriver on the relative slot on the shaft in the
middle in line with the fan cover following the rotation direction
indicated by the arrow on the cover.
If the shaft does not turn freely, try and force it to rotate, if the pump
is blocked contact the technical assistance.
4.10 Cabinet
The entire plinth, the uprights, and the outer panels are made of galvanized carbon steel sheet and are assembled by means of
screws and/or rivets. All panels undergo phosphor degreasing treatment followed by epoxy polyester power coating.
The frame is designed to allow easy access to all components of the unit.

4.11 Materials in contact with compressed air

Standard chillers:
• the tube core heat exchangers in carbon steel with tubes in AISI 304 and condensate separator in carbon steel
and demister in AISI 304 stainless steel.
4.12 Exchanger
The tube core heat exchangers for air treatment is composed of a section that operates as an economiser and a refrigerant
section that makes it possible to reach the required DW as set on the controller.
The first part allows free pre-cooling of the inlet air using air exhausted from the air/water exchanger (at DW temperature)
thus heating the exhaust air by removing heat from the inlet air.
The lower part accommodates the compressed air - water-glycol solution exchanger that cools the air exhausted from the first
air-air side until reaching the dew point temperature.
All connections between the customer's line and the exchanger are made by means of curves or manifolds (unit with double
module) made of carbon steel with cathode electrophoretic surface treatment.
4.13 Condensate drain

The condensate drain is the timer controlled (TEMP) type, features a solenoid valve the opening and closing times of which
are managed by the controller.

5.3 Freeze protection EN

Even if the minimum operating temperature is higher than [°C] (°F), during shutdown periods in the cold season the unit may
be subject to temperatures that are lower than [°C] (°F).
ENGLISH
In such cases if the water is not drained out of the unit propylene glycol antifreeze should be added to the water in the
following percentages:
Ambient T up to Propylene Glycol
[°C] (°F) [% by weight]
0 (32) 0
-5 (23) 18
-10 (14) 27
-15 (5) 33
-20 (-4) 40
NOTE
Note that the system is usually loaded with water and propylene glycol at 20% in weight, which is necessary for the correct
operation of the running system.

(**) For temperatures below +25 °C a valve is required to control the condensation temperature (pressure control valve or
modulating valve depending on unit models and configurations).
5.4 Piping
(see installation drawing)
ATTENTION
It is mandatory to install a prefilter upstream of the dryer to avoid exchanger fouling problems. It is good practice also
to install a coalescent deoiler filter.
1. Air inlet and outlet connections are clearly marked on the dryer. Pipes and connections must be of the correct size
and suitable for the working pressure.
Do not forget to remove blanking plugs from the pipe connections but take care not to let swarf, metal filings,
pieces of tape or other solid particles enter the dryer during installation. These may block the filter or drain valve
or partially obstruct the heat exchangers.
2. All piping must be properly supported. Flexible connections are recommended to avoid pipe stress or the
transmission of vibration.
3. Make suitable arrangements so that the condensate drain pipe drains to a suitable point. The dryer discharge must
not be connected to those from any other compressed air equipment; ideally it should discharge into a open funnel.
27 Chapter 5 - Installation
EN Condensate drainage must never be piped into a common sewerage drain due to its possible oil content. We
recommend the use of oil/water separators for the collection of discharged oil. Ensure that the drainage system
complies with all local regulations.
ENGLISH
4. The safety valve must be installed by the customer.

5. We recommend the installation of a pre-filter before the dryer, or even a coalescence type oil-removing filter after
the dryer, and the installation of isolating valves on the dryer inlet and outlet to isolate the dryer.
The pre-filter before the dryer stops impurities from partially obstructing the heat exchangers which could cause
the dryer to malfunction.
6. It is recommended that a bypass line with on-off valves be installed to enable servicing to be carried out without
interfering with the compressed air supply.
7. Piping or other parts with a temperature in excess of 60°C (140°F) and which may be touched by personnel must
be guarded or insulated.
8. Take care when installing the dryer in areas subject to low ambient temperatures. Steps should be taken to avoid
any discharged condensate freezing in the drainage system. The minimum operating ambient temperature of
dryers in this range is in accordance with the optionals supplied.
9. To enable compressed air to be released from the dryer during service work, it is recommended that a discharge
valve be fitted to the air piping between the dryer and one of the two on-off valves fitted in the line.
10. Check that the inlet air temperature/flow to the dryer does not exceed the design ratings. Install an appropriate
aftercooler if necessary.
In extreme cases the dryer may be overloaded to the point at which a safety device trips.

ATTENTION
Install a mechanical filter with a maximum mesh size of 0.46 mm (0.0181 in) max in the presence of the water regulating
valve or modulating valve.
Install a mechanical filter with a size of 1 mm (0.0393in) in the absence of the water regulating valve, the filter must be
installed as close as possible to the inlet connection to the condenser. Failure to comply with this requirement may cause
irreparable damage to the condenser.
5.5 Electrical connections

The unit’s connection to the power supply must be made in compliance with laws and prescriptions in force in the place of
installation. The voltage, frequency and number of phases must comply with the data on the unit’s nameplate.
The power supply voltage must not be outside the tolerances shown on the electrical schematic, even in terms of transients.
Unless otherwise specified, the frequency tolerance is +/-1% of the nominal value (+/-2% for short periods).
With a three-phase power supply the voltage must be symmetrical (the effective values of phase to phase voltages and
consecutive phase angles must be identical).
In particular, unless otherwise indicated, the maximum permissible phase imbalance is 2%, calculated for each phase
according to the formula:
MaxPhaseVoltageDifferenceFromVavg
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- x 100
Vavg
Vavg= average phase voltage
Chapter 5 - Installation
28
With a single phase power supply the voltage must be supplied between the phase line and neutral and the neutral conductor EN
must be connected to earth in the relative step-down substation (TN system in compliance with IEC 364) or must be
connected to earth upline by the electricity company (TT system in compliance with IEC 364).
ENGLISH
The line conductor and neutral conductor are not interchangeable and their positions cannot be switched.
For the electrical power supply:

1. connect the unit to the building’s protective earth system
2. ensure automatic suspension of the power supply in the event of an insulation fault (protection against indirect
contact in compliance with the prescriptions of IEC 364) by means of a residual current device (the nominal trip
current of which should normally be set to 0.03 A)
3. make sure the level of protection against indirect contact at the source of the power feeding cable is equivalent at
least to IP2X or IPXXB
4. at the start of the power cable install a device that protects it from current surges (short-circuits) (refer to the
indications given in the electrical diagram)
5. use conductors rated to carry the maximum current required at the maximum operating ambient temperature,
according to the chosen installation type (IEC 364-5-523) (see the indications on the electrical diagram)
6. install protection devices that limit the short circuit current to 17 kA peak in correspondence with the rated
breaking capacity if the short-circuit current in the point of installation is greater than an effective value of 10 kA.
Indications on the electrical diagram:
A maximum permissible size of the fuse type gG.
In general, fuses can be replaced by an automatic circuit breaker set in relation to the unit’s maximum current
input (consult the manufacturer if necessary)
B section and type of power cable (if not already supplied):
• installation: insulated conductors, multicore cable in a cable duct, installed overhead, or fixed to a masonry
structure (type C in compliance with IEC 364-5-523 1983) or without any other cables in contact
• cable type: copper conductors, 70°C PVC insulation (unless otherwise specified) or EPR 90°C insulation
For further details refer to the attached electrical schematic.
5.6 Phase Monitor

By means of a Phase Monitor device (see unit electrical schematic) the electronic controller is able to monitor the unit’s
power supply, stopping the unit in the case of missing phases or an incorrect phase sequence.
Tripping of the Phase Monitor shuts down the unit and displays alarm ALc1.
A certain level of power supply instability is perfectly normal. If the frequency with which the unit is shut down due to
tripping of the Phase Monitor tends to increase unacceptably, contact your local electricity company to find a solution.
ATTENTION
Never tamper with the Phase Monitor under any circumstances.
29 Chapter 6 - Starting
EN CHAPTER 6
ENGLISH
STARTING
ATTENTION
Before starting this type of unit, ensure that all personnel involved have read and understood Chapter 2 “Safety”.
ATTENTION
On starting the unit:

1) If the high pressure alarm trips (b1HP/b1hP) without the compressor having started, stop the unit immediately by setting
it to off on the controller.
Now check the refrigerant circuit high pressure value.
2) If the Phase Monitor alarm ALc1 trips check the correct phase sequence upline from the unit. The ALc1 alarm may be
generated by tripping of the protections upline from the phase monitor.
ATTENTION
At the first start-up after a stop of several days, make sure the casing heater of each compressor has been activated for
at least 12 hours before pressing the start button.
1. Check that the tank is completely full of water by means of the level gauge on the filling container.
2. Check that the ambient temperature is within the range indicated on the unit’s data plate.
3.Check that the main switch is in the OFF position (“O”).
4.Check that the unit power supply voltage is correct.
5.Power the unit by means of the line protection device.
6.Close the unit’s main switch by setting it to the ON position (“I”).
7.Check that water is flowing through the evaporator.
8. To start the unit perform the following procedure (For more information consult Chapter 7 “Electronic
controller”)
From unit OFF (stand-by) press and release button to switch the unit on or off in chiller mode. With the
unit on LED is lit.
9. Make sure the compressor operates correctly (no anomalous noise and no overheating) and check that the fans (if
present) and the pump rotate in the correct direction.
If necessary, invert two phase wires of the power supply line.
10. To avoid pressure shocks open the dryer inlet valve very slowly to pressurise the dryer.
11. Slowly open the dryer outlet valve.
12. Close the dryer by-pass valve (if present on the customer's line).
13. Press the manual drain button and check that the condensate drain solenoid valve opens.
14. The unit is now ready to start operating.
If the thermal load is lower than the load produced by the unit, the DW temperature will decrease until it reaches
the set-point value set in accordance with the directions given in Chapter 7 “Electronic controller”.
Once the SET-POINT value has been reached, the controller monitoring the water inlet temperature will stop the
compressor. In these conditions the water pump runs constantly.
NOTE
Do not switch off the dryer if the compressed air flow is suspended for short intervals.
Switch off the dryer only when the air compressor is switched off (e.g. during the night or at weekends).
The first time the machine is started after several days’ stoppage, turn on the casing resistance of every compressor at least
6 hours before pressing the ON/OFF button.
In this case, remember to turn on the dryer at least 10-15 minutes before the air compressor.

7.14 Unit adjustment and control

7.14.1 Compressors control
The electronic controller manages compressor start and stops, observing the minimum run times.
The following section describes the two control and rotation modes.
7.14.2 Choice of compressors control type
The controller features the facility to choose between two temperature control types:
• Proportional
• Neutral Zone (factory setting)
7.14.3 Proportional regulation
Temperature setting (set-point) and temperature deviation value (differential) are used for chiller unit proportional
regulation. When the measured temperature increases, the system progressively starts the compressors. When the temperature
falls below the differential, the compressors stop progressively.

In chiller mode, if the reference temperature is > Setpoint+Differential, the unit's compressors are activated in sequence,
according to the ON delay time outside the neutral zone.
In contrast, if the reference temperature is < Setpoint, the unit's compressors are stopped in sequence according to the OFF
delay time outside the neutral zone.
Moreover, to obtain the temperature set-point and compressor rotation, if the reference temperature is within the neutral
zone, the unit compressors start in sequence according to the switching-on delay in the neutral zone. Still within the neutral
zone, after a programmable time interval the controller stops one compressor and, according to the programmed rotation,
starts another. These events in the neutral zone occur only if at least one of the unit compressors is already running.

For correct operation of the compressors over time, the electronic controller manages rotation of compressor starts with
different logic, selectable by means of a parameter.
ENGLISH
The possible choices are:

• Fixed sequence: the first compressor to start is always the last one to stop.
• Rotation by hours: the first compressor to start is the one with the lowest number of running hours, while the
first to stop is the one with the highest number of running hours.
• Rotation by starts (factory setting): the compressor that starts will be the one with the lowest number of
starts, while the first to stop will be the one with the highest number of starts.
In dual circuit units, it is also possible to choose whether to favour compressor saturation or balancing in each circuit.
7.14.7 Forced compressors rotation
For units that often operate at partial loads, the controller provides the facility to perform forced compressor rotation.
For circuits with more than one compressor, but only one is running, this compressor will stop and another compressor will
be forced to start.after a programmable running time.
7 . 1 4 . 8 C o mp re s s o r s s t a r t i n g t i m e l i m i t a t i o n
If there are several compressors in a circuit but only one is running, after a programmable running time the compressor is
stopped and another compressor is started (the first compressor available according to the number of running hours or of
starts).
7.15 Unloading function

This function makes it possible to reduce the unit cooling capacity when required; it may affect the entire unit or a single
circuit and it is achieved by stopping one or more compressors. The unloading types are as follows:
• Unloading due to high temperature: having defined a setting and an unloading differential, if the
temperature measured by the probe remains above the setting for an activation time, one compressor is stopped
in each circuit. If the temperature of the probe becomes lower than, or equal to, the unloading setting less the
differential, or if the associated maximum duration has elapsed, the unloading function is deactivated and the
compressors start again.
• Unloading due to high pressure (if high pressure transducer is present): having defined a setting, a
differential, and an unloading time, if the condensing pressure measured in a circuit is greater than or equal to
the setting, the unloading function is activated in the circuit and one compressor is stopped only in the circuit
involved. The unloading function is deactivated only if the condensing pressure drops and remains below the
unloading setting for a pre-set time or if it falls below set - diff.
7.16 Fans control (air-condensed units)
The fans can be controlled as follows (see chapter 4.6 “Fans (condensing section, air-condensed units)”):
• ON/OFF
• by steps
The selection is made on the basis of the unit configuration.
7.16.1 Units configured with "STEP" control fans (air-condensed units)
These units are equipped with a pressure transducer located on the refrigerant compressor discharge line.
On the basis of the pressure read by the transducer, the electronic controller manages operation of the fans according to ON-
OFF logic, i.e. switching the fans power supply on and off.
7.16.2 Fan control diagrams (air-condensed units)

7.18 Anti-freeze pump management (if ambient probe is
installed)
The pumps installed in the unit can be started in anti-freeze mode to prevent the formation of ice in the unit's hydraulic
circuit. If the unit is powered off and the selected reference temperature is below the programmed setpoint, one of the pumps
is started. The pump is stopped if the temperature increases above the set-point + differential, according to the following
diagram:

7.19 ModBus
The supervision system provides the facility to monitor and act on certain of the unit's parameters by means of a remote
device using the RS485 port. The MODBUS communication mode for the controller features the following characteristics:
Baud Rate = 9600 bps
Data Bit = 8 bit
Parity = None
Stop Bit = 1
Start/stop= 4milliseconds of silence (approximately 3 characters)
Minimum timeout = 500 ms

8.1 Compressor motor protection
The unit is equipped with an internal motor protection system by means of a power circuit breaker.
8.2 Refrigerant high and low pressure switches

The units are equipped with the following pressure switches:
1. high pressure switch (HP)
This monitors the refrigerant compressor discharge pressure and prevents it increasing to potentially hazardous
values that could harm the compressor and people within the vicinity. The pressure switch is of the “automatic
reset” type. Tripping of this pressure switch is read by the electronic controller, which opens the compressor
power feeding circuit and displays alarm signal b1HP (see section “7.11.7 High pressure switch and/or
compressors thermal alarm”).
When the compressor discharge pressure decreases and falls below the reset point, the pressure switch resets
automatically.
The unit can then be restarted according to the alarm reset procedure described in Chapter 7 “Electronic
controller”.
If the cause of pressure switch activation is not eliminated, this cycle may be repeated continuously.
2. low pressure switch (LP)
This monitors refrigerant compressor suction pressure and will trip to protect the compressor if the pressure falls
to potentially hazardous values that could harm the compressor. The pressure switch is of the “automatic reset”
type. Alarm b1LP (see chapter “7.11.8 Low pressure switch alarm”), generated by tripping of this pressure
switch, can be delayed with respect to start-up of the compressor, to prevent temporary fluctuations in suction
pressure or false alarms from interfering with correct operation of the unit. Once the preset time interval has
elapsed tripping of this pressure switch will be detected by the electronic control unit, which will display alarm
signal b1LP (see chapter “7.11.8 Low pressure switch alarm”) and shut down the compressor(s), while the pump
will continue to run. After the alarm has tripped if the compressor suction pressure increases and exceeds the reset
value the pressure switch will reset. The unit can be restarted by following the alarms reset procedure described in
Chapter 7 “Electronic controller”. If the cause of the pressure switch trip has not been remedied this cycle will be
repeated continuously.
The HP and LP pressure switches are connected to the refrigerant circuit pipes by means of SCHRAEDER valves (with
needle) that prevent the refrigerant from escaping if the pressure switches are to be replaced.
The TRIP and RESET values of the pressure switches depend on the type of refrigerant and are shown in the following table:

EN 8.3 Fan pressure switches (air-condensed units)

With fan speed control in ON/OFF mode these units are equipped with a Pressure switch (FP) that monitors the refrigerant
compressor discharge pressure and is responsible for controlling operation of the fans in ON-OFF mode, i.e. connecting or
ENGLISH
disconnecting the fans electrical power supply.

The FP pressure switch is connected to the refrigerant circuit pipes by means of SCHRAEDER valves (with needle) that
prevent refrigerant from escaping if the pressure switch is to be replaced.
The TRIP and RESET values of the pressure switch depend on the type of refrigerant and are shown in the following table:

With these values it is possible to check the condensation and the fan tripping.
8.4 Water regulating valve (Optional, water-condensed

units)
See the wiring diagrams to have more information.
The water valve can be installed before the condenser in units HPD 260/W÷450/W with city water and HPD
260/W÷640/W with well water.
It controls the refrigerant fluid flow capacity entering the condenser based on the condensation pressure and
the temperature.
8.5 Modulating valve (Optional, water-condensed units)

The modulating valve can be installed before the condenser in units HPD 640/W with city water.
The two-way modulating valve is servo-assisted and it serves to regulate the flow of cooling water to the condenser in
accordance with the pressure values read by the transducers. This valve is managed by the electronic controller and it does
not require connection to the high pressure refrigerant circuit.

EN CHAPTER 9
ENGLISH
D R A I N SYSTEM
The timed drain system is automatically controlled by the electronic controller which fixes the condensate drain intervals
(see Chapter 7 “Electronic controller”).
9.1 Timed condensate drain system

The timed condensate drain system must be carefully checked and serviced in order to prevent the separated condensate from
being entrained with the flow of compressed air into the distribution system.
Chapter 10 - Operation and maintenance
58
CHAPTER 10 EN
ENGLISH
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
10.1 Operation
Do not turn off the dryer if there is no compressed air flow for brief periods. The dryer has an adjustment system which
adapts its cooling capacity to the real demand. If the thermal load due to the compressed air flow is between 0% and 100% of the
available cooling capacity, the control system ensures a nearly constant dew point (approx. 3°C/37.4°F); if the thermal load is
greater than 100% of the available cooling capacity the dew-point increases as a result.
It is advisable to switch off the dryer when the flow of compressed air is suspended for long periods (e.g. at weekends). In this
case, remember to turn on the dryer at least 10-15 minutes before the air compressor.
ATTENTION
If the system is to be shut down for long periods of time, the condensation should be drained from the discharge line (by
holding down the manual discharge key for a few minutes).
Failure to perform this drainage procedure may cause damage (ice and/or dirt in drain lines).
ATTENTION
Any task that requires the panelling to be opened must be performed only with the unit powered off and disconnected
from the electrical supply.
10.2 Maintenance
ATTENTION
Before installing or operating these units, ensure that all personnel involved have read and understood Chapter 2
“Safety”
These dryers will give many years of trouble-free service if they are properly maintained and serviced.
10.3 Access to the unit
ATTENTION
Do not perform any type of maintenance or repairs on pressurised parts.

Before any maintenance operation, make sure that the compressed air circuit is without internal pressure.
In the case of leaks in the compressed air circuit, shut off the compressed air flow immediately.
Install adequate safety devices in compliance with statutory legislation governing the operation of pressure equipment in the
country of use.
To access the refrigerant circuit components open the front panel (A) by removing the fasteners with the wrench supplied
with the unit. To access the refrigerant circuit components remove the screws fixing side panel (B) (see figure) with a
screwdriver.
To access the evaporator and hydraulic circuit components remove the screws fixing side panels (C) or (D) (see figure) with
a screwdriver.
ATTENTION
To access the electrical cabinet components set the main switch to the OFF position, and open the electrical cabinet (E)
door by opening the relative fasteners using the wrench supplied with the unit.
