Standard Features

Microprocessor

The microprocessor controller provides state of the art control for a wide

controller

variety of environmental applications including the demanding requirements

 

of data centers, control rooms, clean rooms, switch rooms, MRI facilities,

 

CAT scan facilities and UPS Rooms. Operator Interface is provided by the

 

four-line, 80-character backlit LCD display. A user-friendly menu structure

 

along with clearly defined prompts allow the operator to easily move about

 

the program. Within the configuration menu the operator will find numerous

 

selections allowing the AFX to be tailored to meet specific requirements.

 

Status. Complete status monitoring is provided within the status menu of the

 

microprocessor controller.

 

Available information includes:

• Current temperature

• Cooling status

• Current humidity

• Heating status

•

Temperature setpoint

•

Humidification status

•

Humidity setpoint

•

Dehumidification status

Alarms. Quick access to any alarm condition is facilitated through the menu structure. The alarm key acts as a hot key, providing immediate access to the alarm display menu. Presence of a new alarm will sound the audible alarm.

The red alarm LED on the display panel will remain illuminated until all alarms have been cleared. The temperature and humidity alarm setpoints are adjustable.

Alarm annunciations include:

 

• Loss of airflow

• High temperature

• Clogged filter

• Low temperature

• High head pressure

• High humidity

• Low suction pressure

• Low humidity

Setpoints. The microprocessor is provided with independent setpoints for:

•

Heating

•

Humidification

•

Cooling

•

Dehumidification

Automatic setpoint crossover protection will prevent the setting of the heat setpoint above the cool setpoint and the humidify setpoint above the dehumidify setpoint. Setpoint adjustment can be restricted to only operators with knowledge of the security codes set within the security menu structure.

Configuration. Flexibility is offered through the use of the configuration menu. Operating requirements are satisfied by changing the configuration settings. New configurations are stored in EEPROM and protected from unauthorized tampering by the four-digit security password, selected in the security menu.
