Water Management; Drain Valve; Continuous Bleed System; Power Outages - Seeley LCQ Manuel Du Propriétaire

WATER MANAGEMENT

Your evaporative cooler will be fitted with a
WaterManager™ system, or a continuous
bleed system. Check with your dealer to
determine which system has been installed.
WATERMANAGER™
Seeley evaporative coolers are fitted with the
WaterManager™ feature which automatically
monitors the quality of the water in the cooler.
The WaterManager™ partially drains the
existing water in the cooler to allow it to be
replaced with fresh water, only when it is
needed. Therefore, you may notice your
cooler draining water occasionally. How often
the WaterManager™ performs this operation
depends upon the quality of the water supply
and the rate of evaporation. In areas of poor
water quality, the WaterManager™ will operate
more often as it tries to maintain the optimum
water quality in the cooler. This maximises the
cooling effect and life of the cooling pads.
The WaterManager™ allows you to specify
either high or low salinity settings. The
low salinity setting is used in specific
circumstances only. We recommend talking
with your dealer before adjusting this setting.
The high salinity setting is designed to operate
the cooler at a maximum safe salinity level to
maintain a normal working life. It also results in
a minimum usage of water.
Note! High salinity outlet water can be used on
saline tolerant gardens, but should not be used
on salt sensitive grasses or plants.
The factory default WaterManager™ setting
is HI. For areas operating with bore water,
WaterManager™ should be switched to off.
This will disable the salinity measuring circuit
and simply drain water from the tank every 65
minutes of operation.

DRAIN VALVE

The WaterManager™ system is installed with
a drain valve and it is accompanied by the
WaterManager™ salinity probes. When the
tank's water salinity level reaches a preset
level the WaterManager™ will open the drain
valve and release saline water. Fresh water
will then be added diluting any minerals or
salts accumulated. The WaterManager™
will continue to monitor and drain water as
required.

INTERNATIONAL
Alternatively, the cooler can be set to drain
saline water at a preset period of pump
operating time. This can be set by changing
the salinity control method selector via the
cooler settings screens.
Note! When the cooler's tank is empty and the
cooler is turned on again, the fan operation will
be delayed as the tank is refilled and the pads
are saturated.

CONTINUOUS BLEED SYSTEM

During operation, the bleed system will
drain small amounts of water. This ensures
fresh water is continually added to dilute salt
accumulation in the water caused through
evaporation. This helps keep the air cooler
in good condition and ensure optimum
performance. The bleed rate will depend on
local operating conditions and will be set by the
installer.

POWER OUTAGES

After a power outage the MagIQtouch
Controller will prompt you to enter the date and
time. If the AUTO RESTART option is switched
on in the SETTINGS menu, the following
actions will result:
If the cooler was last running in MANUAL
mode, it will automatically restart only after the
date and time have been confirmed.
If the cooler was last running in PROGRAM
mode, it will automatically restart, even before
the time and date have been set, according
to the last time recorded before the power
outage.

HEALTH REGULATIONS

In some regions, regulations require that
evaporative air coolers be serviced at specific
intervals.
