maximum waterflow setting can be adjusted through the unit display or BMS system if monitoring card is
present, avoiding stopping the unit or opening its frontal panel.

Humidifier
The unit can keep the humidity of the environment at the requested set point through humidification and
dehumidification functions; the dehumidification function is embedded when the humidifier is installed.

The unit is fitted with an infrared humidifier suitable for use with water of varying degrees of hardness.
The humidifier is complete with a water inlet valve, and a maximum water level sensor; the humidifier
includes high-intensity quartz lamp on water creating instantaneous moisture using almost any water
quality. The cleanable stainless-steel humidifier pan is removable from front of the unit.

Microprocessor Controller and Display


The Control System is microprocessor based. Terminals are provided for remote start/stop control plus
Volt-free ‘Common Alarm’, ‘Common Warning’. Full list of microprocessor features includes:

Single Circuit units


• up to 7 configurable digital inputs (for instance condensate pump alarm, heater alarm, fire alarm, water
alarm, no power, etc..)
• 1 digital input for remote ON/OFF
• 2 digital outputs to report general warning and general alarm
• 1 Ethernet port

The microprocessor can be programmed, in alternative, through:

A 10-inch, high definition (resolution 1280x800 pixel), widescreen, multitouch projected capacitive
touchscreen display that shall be mounted in an ergonomic, aesthetically pleasing housing.

More than 240 types of warnings / alarms / messages are displayed including:

ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL SPECIFICATIONS

SECTION 22

Supply temperature sensor


NTC sensor can be provided for acting supply control logics.

Remote Temperature sensor - Accessory


The remote temperature sensors can be Active or Read-only.
Active remote temperature and humidity sensors Unit shall permit to select the minimum, maximum or
average values read by the multiple remote sensors, in order to achieve the best control strategy. A remote
sensor can be even selected as redundant sensor, in this case the control will consider the value of the first
sensor only; the second sensor will be used only if the first one is broken or missing. The same rule will
be applied for succeeding redundant sensors.

Fan speed control mode defines how airflow will be controlled. Five options are available:
• Return Sensor
• Remote Sensor
• Delta T between Return temperature and supply temperature
• Static Pressure
• Return CW priority
• Fixed Speed
Humidity control mode defines from which sensor humidification and dehumidification will be driven.

Two options are available:


• Return Sensor
• Remote Sensor

Humidity Control types available are:


• Relative
• Relative Compensated
• Absolute
• Dew Point
In case of control sensor failure, the unit automatically adapts to grant cooling/airflow continuity. An
U2U (unit to unit) communication between multiple units via Ethernet network (up to 32 units) allows for
advanced control functionality: teamwork modes, sharing sensor data, standby rotation, lead-lag, cascade
operation, auto restart delay and rotating master function; without the need of a dedicated sequencing
panel.

Teamwork
Four ‘teamwork’ modes can be adopted.
• No Teamwork. The units work independently on the cooling control. Sensor values and setpoints are
not shared. The control drives cooling, heating, ventilation, humidification and dehumidification based
on the local requests. Standby function and unit rotation are possible.
• Teamwork Mode 1 (Parallel). The control uses the system PI’s for driving cooling, heating, ventilation,
humidification and dehumidification. In these Teamwork mode, all relevant control parameters are
shared; if a value is changed in any of the units, all other units will follow with the same changed
setting.
• Teamwork Mode 2 (Independent). The control drives cooling, heating, ventilation, humidification and
dehumidification based on local requests, while avoiding operational conflict with the other units in the
network. For example: If one unit is on cooling, no other unit may start heating. If one unit is on
dehumidification, no other unit may start humidification. In this Teamwork mode, all relevant control
parameters are shared; if a value is changed in any of the units, all other units will follow with the same
changed setting.

ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL SPECIFICATIONS

SECTION 22

• Teamwork Mode 3 (SmartAisle). The control uses the system PI’s for driving ventilation,
humidification and dehumidification. Local request is used for driving cooling and heating. Note: this
teamwork mode can be set only if the SmartAisle option has been enabled and remote sensors are
ordered. The unit should have the capability to modulate airflow according to the airflow taken by the
servers, using remote temperature sensor as controlling sensor. A Master controls duty, standby and
rotation, calculates system values and sends it to the other units in the system. The Master holds the
selected number of units and starts/stops the units in order to have the requested number of units
working.

Stand by Rotation
Each unit in the group needs to get a unique communication number. The rotation index number defines
the order of which unit will be the next one to be activated.

Lead-lag
Units, before going in standby mode, shall continue operation for the time set in “Overlap Timer”.

Auto Restart Delay


Avoid a simultaneously re-start of multiple units (no matter if teamwork is selected or not). Each unit has
a delay time between Power On and starting of the fans after a power cycle.

Cascade
Usually Standby Units will start in case of an alarm of one of the Duty Units. Cascaded units will also
start in order to help the Duty Unit base on the cooling request (Teamwork 1) or for Airflow request
(Teamwork 3). In this way the system optimizes the Standby Units not only in case of an alarm/failure.

Rotating Master
As part of the robust architecture of the control, when the Master gets disconnected from the network,
another unit will automatically change to be the Master. All system values are available for all connected
units. When the Master gets disconnected from the network, another unit (the unit with the lowest
U2U_ID in the remaining network) will automatically change to be the Master.
This feature avoids system reset when the Master disappears or when it comes back available in the
system.

Heating / Reheating
The heating resistors are of a rigid design for extended operational life and are normally utilized to
maintain room dry-bulb conditions during a system call for dehumidification. Each stage of the heaters is
made of finned armored stainless steel AISI 304 to maintain a low surface power density. Ionization
effects are eliminated owing to the low heater surface temperature. Heating control is of the ON-OFF
type. The heaters are phase balanced and a safety air high temperature sensor measures the air
temperature at the unit outlet and switches off the heater if the air temperature is higher than the alarm
threshold, moreover, heaters are
provided with a manual reset safety thermostat to disable them in the event of a high temperature. The
heating system also incorporates Miniature Circuit Breaker(s) which protect the heater(s) from short
circuits, should the harness be damaged accidentally. Due to the heat load generated by the electrical
heaters, these devices should respect a distance of 20cm around the fan blades circumference.

SECTION 22

Air Filtration
The standard filtration grade is ePM10 50% according to ISO/EN16890. The ePM10 50% standard filters
are made by paper material and are completely recyclable. The filter pleated structure gives high filtration
efficiency, low pressure drops and allows the use of the filter without metallic or cardboard frame. The
filter media is composed by fiber and latex. They are easily accessed/replaced by opening the front
panel(s). Filters are laying on the coil surface to maximize the filtering surface so reducing air pressure
drop. On the top of the coil an L shape filter is placed to add more surface and to optimize coil exchange
rate.

The unit can be fitted with a filter differential pressure transducer, connected to the microprocessor
controller to provide a dynamic ‘Filter Status’.

Piping Connections
The hydraulic connections are drawn in order to avoid any interference with fans replacement. In terms of
chilled water connections with small units with pipe size less than 65mm dia. shall be supplied with
threated connections. For the others bigger units shall be supplied with Victaulic connections, two smooth
pipe stubs are provided with the units and can be used to create the connection.

The unit shall be provided with bottom left hydraulic connections. Dual circuit units provided with
bottom left and right hydraulic connections.

High Voltage Options (if required as per project electrical requirements)


Unit offer shall be with possibility to have dual power supplies, in order to guarantee cooling continuity
once the main power supply fails.

Dual power supply alternate


Unit is fitted with Dual Power Supply Alternate Version. The unit is fed by two separate power supplies:
each power supply can completely feed the unit. In case of main line failure ATS switches to the second
power supply. This allows to have a complete power supply redundancy and therefore to have full cooling
redundancy during emergency mode.
The unit integrates an ATS (Automatic Transfer Switch): in case of line I failure, it can be used for
operating the motorized change-over switch to the line II, if line II is operational. Switching time at
nominal current excluding loss of supply sensing time and excluding any delay timers applicable is at
least 1.2 s-1.5 s.

ATS Positioning Monitoring-Option


Unit can display and share with BMS system (if monitoring card is present) which line is powering the
unit, and thus also the position of the Automatic Transfer Switch.

Cooling Override-Option
During control reboot due to a power outage or in case of control failure, the cooling override function
increases unit reliability, limiting cooling interruptions to the IT equipment, without the need of any
capacitors or battery backup. A specific algorithm permits to operate at programmable fan speeds, while

ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL SPECIFICATIONS

SECTION 22

keeping the chilled water valve to the last position, or driving it to pre-set point. Once the communication
has been re-established, the valve and fans control are released to normal operation. In case of dampers,
this feature disables fan actions.

Predispositions
Smart Aisle
The unit shall be ready for containment control (SmartAisle). The unit should have the capability to
modulate airflow according to the airflow taken by the servers, using remote temperature sensor as
controlling sensor, installed in the top part of the aisle which communicates between the aisle through a
calibrated hole. This maximizes system efficiency providing the servers only with the airflow needed.
The valve shall be modulated according to the unit air supply temperature in order to optimize server inlet
temperature. The system done by multiple units shall work with efficient cascade way, trying to maximize
energy efficiency always working where EC Fans are more effective.

The unit is equipped by default with a special switch that allows to change easily three different working
modes:

• automatic control of airflow and cooling


• unit forced to off mode
• airflow and cooling forced to 100%

Monitoring

The unit can communicate with Building Management Systems and Network Management Systems
supporting third party protocols: Modbus TCP/IP RTU, BACnet IP v1.14, SNMP v2c and HTTP. More
than 600 different parameters/ events are available to BMS.

Packaging
DIGIT 21 = P
Units are packed before shipping (two separates packages for coil and fan sections on Extended and High
DT units). They stand on an ISPM15 fumigated wooden pallet. Standard packaging consists of
honeycomb cardboard corners protecting the corners of the units, lateral walls protected by honeycomb
sheets and top part of the unit covered by corrugated cardboard lid. Around the entire unit, including the
cardboards, a polyethylene stretch film is applied. The standard cardboard packing is enclosed by
additional wooden crate.
