Any persons unrelated to the lifting and transport operations, are not allowed to pass
or stand near the area in which the machine components are moved, while the
people assigned have to maintain adequate distance to avoid being affected by
suspended components.

The electricity and grounding system connections must be implemented by qualified

and experienced staff, in compliance with current regulations.

Never under any circumstances operate the machine while under the influence of
alcohol, drugs or medicines causing drowsiness.

It is recommended to protect the main supply line through the adoption of circuit
breakers (thermal-magnetic switches).

The presence of close magnetic or electromagnetic fields could affect the correct
functioning of the control panel of the machine.
The ideal temperature and humidity conditions for the correct commissioning and
use of the machine are the ambient conditions where the machine will be installed.

Check that the electrical circuit is properly protected and meets the characteristics
of the engines: the machine is equipped with an identification plate containing the
power, frequency and voltage values of the electricity supply.

CHAPTER 4- DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE

4.1 GENERAL FEATURES

In the design and manufacture of the dry-cooler series Dcooler and ADcooler has made use of advanced
technologies that have enabled the development of a product that guarantees maximum operating reliability and
minimum response time.
A convenient and intuitive control panel allows the operator to set the working parameters.
The simple construction and the careful arrangement of the various components make routine maintenance extremely
simple and fast.

4.2 FEATURES AND OPERATION

Dcooler is an adiabatic dry-cooler which, through heat exchangers, cools the process water using the air driven by the
fans with variable flow rate, and in this way saves energy considerably.

To improve performance in the summer and lower the temperature of the process even further, ADcooler has an
adiabatic system that allows you to take advantage of the wet bulb temperature which is normally lower than that of the
dry bulb. The outlet temperature of the process water will be very similar to the ambient temperature. The adiabatic
system requires a mains water supply: water consumption depends on the percentage of humidity in the environment.
Thanks to the adiabatic system (which avoids direct contact between the water and the fins), the heat exchangers will
always be efficient and free from lime deposits.
Machine operation is entrusted to a microprocessor that controls the temperature set, the operating status and
troubleshooting and automatically manages the control of the speed of the fans and the introduction of the adiabatic
system.

The ADcooler series has:

 AN ADIABATIC SYSTEM;
 ELECTRICAL CABINET WITH REMOTE CONTROL PANEL;
 ADJUSTABLE FAN SPEED;

Strengths of the ADcooler series:

 ADIABATIC SYSTEM, NO CONTAMINATION, NO POLLUTION, NO WATER STAGNATION.

 MAXIMUM INTERACTIVITY WITH THE USER.
 VARIABLE FAN SPEED.
 PRECISE MONITORING OF THE TEMPERATURE VIA THE MICROPROCESSOR.
 WATER CONSUMPTION ADJUSTMENT OF THE ADIABATIC SYSTEM

CHAPTER 6- INSTALLATION

WARNING:

This operation must be performed by a qualified technician.

6.1 PLUMBING CONNECTION

WARNING:
Spanners and counter spanners must be used during operations of tightening
and/or loosening the connectors.

5.1.1 PROCESS CIRCUIT CONNECTIONS

The hydraulic connections of the Dry-Cooler must be carried out on
site using rigid pipes or hoses.
The nominal pressure which the pipes and fittings must be able to
withstand must not be less than 8 bar.
It is recommended that inlet (IN) and outlet (OUT) headers are built.
A service valve will be mounted on both the inlet header and the outlet
header.
It is recommended to insert an input filter for machine water (on all
versions).
The filters which must be connected on machine input are used to
preserve the internal components, which will come in contact with the OUT
impurities in the water could get damaged.
However, the filters need maintenance to avoid clogging and
compromising the good functioning of the machine. To access when
the filter is clogging, two gauges must be inserted, one upstream and
one downstream of the filter (see Figure B).
If the pressures read on the gauges are very similar, then the filter is IN
clean. Instead, if very different pressures are read, it is recommended
you clean the filter. To avoid stopping the process water, it is
recommended you assemble a by-pass (see Figure B).

6.4 SYSTEM EMPTYING (ADCOOLER ONLY)

If an antifreeze mix is not used, during periods where a risk of ice formation is possible, it is compulsory to empty the
cooling batteries using drainage plugs located on the lower part (see Figure A) of the headers (see Figure A),
simultaneously opening the upper vents (see Figure B).

Figure A Figure B

The adiabatic system must also be drained before periods in which there are temperatures with a risk of ice formation.
Drain the machine by carrying out the following operation with the machine connected to the mains:

- switch off the machine from the control panel by pressing the button
- turn off the water mains and disconnect the machine
- open all taps that are located in the valve group (see Figure C)
- position the "adiabatic activate/deactivate" switch to "deactivate" (see Figure D)
- when the water has drained completely, close all the taps of the valve group

6.5 FAN SPEED REGULATOR

The ADcooler series is equipped with a speed control device that allows the operator to vary the speed of the fans
according to the ratio between the set-point temperature and the outlet temperature of the water.
This control is carried out by a temperature probe placed in the water process outlet pipe.
When the temperature probe detects a difference in the outlet water temperature compared to the set-point
temperature, either negatively or positively, the regulators increase or decrease the fan speed.
The dry cooler switches off if there is a fault in the speed regulator, the H8 warning light comes on (see the control
panel section), disconnect the Dry-Cooler from the power supply, open the Electrical Cabinet and turn the S/C switch
to position “1”.
Once this has been done, the fans will no longer be controlled by the regulator but may only be regulated by the
ON/OFF of the fan system

6.6 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Check that the mains supply corresponds to the nominal data of the unit (voltage, phases, frequency) on the plate on
the machine. The supply voltage must not vary more than ± 5% of the nominal value. The electrical connections must
be made in accordance with the wiring diagram attached to the unit and with the legislative regulations.

In addition:
 Protect the main power line through a differential circuit breaker.
 Connect to the mains correctly and in accordance with electrical regulations in force.
 All cables that carry current must be grounded.
 All the connecting cables (phases + earth) must be connected in such a way that it is not possible to tear or
damage them in any way.

The electrical cabinet, in plastic and isolated in accordance with IP 54, is located outside the Dry-Cooler. Insert the
cable into the electrical cabinet, from bottom to top, (see Figure A) with the aid of a cable gland, until you reach the
connection points on the body of the main switch Q (see Figure B). Connect L1 - L2 - L3 to the main switch.
Then proceed connecting the outer end of the power cord to the main power supply line.

CHAPTER 11- MACHINE DEMOLITION

If, for whatever reason, decommissioning and dismantling of the machine is required, it is necessary to observe some
basic rules intended to safeguard the health and the environment in which we live:

Sheathings, hoses and plastic components, or in any case non-metallic ones, shall be disassembled and disposed of
separately.

The casing, and in any case all the metal parts of the machine, must be disassembled and grouped by type of material.
The different parts thus obtained can be then dismantled and melted to allow the recycling of material constituting the
original machine.
