CHDesign - v2.9
GENERAL
Air conditioners specifically designed for IT applications: maximisation of sensible capacity, efficiency,
reliability, availability and redundancy. They additionally provide for utmost flexibility in terms of direction
of the air delivery and return lines for better adaptation to the different site
layouts.
CONFIGURATIONS
STRUCTURE BTD
For enhanced thermal and acoustic insulation the units consist of a load-bearing frame made of a 22 mm
thick sandwich sheet metal, with internal insulating glass wool material, 30 kg/m³ density. The fire reaction
class of the panelling is A1 (in accordance with EN13501). Air tightness is achieved with adhesive sealing
strips placed allaround the edges of the panels. The internal sheet metal parts are hot galvanised and have
variable thickness (from 2.5 mm for the base to 1 mm for removable panels), whereas visible parts are
painted with an oven-baked epoxy polyester powder coating RAL7016 and have a textured surface finish.
The frame is secured with structural rivets. The front and rear panels are fixed with ¼ turn fasteners or
they are screwed to the top part, respectively, and they are supplied with tabs for installation in dedicated
slots on the base. The front panel opposite the electric switch is hingedand supplied with a handle for
opening. Access to all the main components of the unit is gained from th front, so no clearance spaces
must be left at the sides and back of the unit for both routine and non-routine maintenance. All the
materials making up the unit are CFC-free. All electrical, cooling and hydraulic connections are normally
made from the bottom of the unit. Solutions for lateral connections are also available upon request.

FANS
Units are equipped with 1, 2, 3 and/or 4 radial fans with backward-curved blades, without scroll. Fans are
balanced, as required by standard ISO DIN 1940. The average air capacity value is 82 l/s per kW of sensible
cooling capacity. Fans featuring brushless, electronically commutated (EC) motors offer a number of
advantages:
• greater efficiency at full load if compared with the corresponding AC model;
• Cosfi value close to 1;
• built-in soft starter;
• user-friendly adjustment - the 0-10V control signal enables monitoring the motor speed electronically
with continuous regulation via the microprocessor onboard the unit so as to implement various control
strategies (constant flow, constant pressure, based on thermal load, etc.).
• The motors are provided with integrated electronic protection against overtemperature, overcurrent,
over or under-voltage with absence of one or more phases.
The strategic advantage of EC fans is the cubic ratio between speed and absorption. In other words, the
consumption of a fan running at 70% is 50%, it is 18% when running at 50%, etc. This brings about a
potential saving that is exponential to partial loads. Hence, the need exists to modulate the fan efficiently
and continuously using the correct algorithm required by the application. Air flow is constantly monitored
by a differential pressure switch, which signals an alarm condition when there is no flow or the flow is poor.
AIR FILTERS
The filters are pleated and in a rigid galvanized steel frame, filtration class ISO Coarse 75% (ISO 16890-
3; G4 - EN779), and designed to minimize head losses and to have a high degree of filtration. The thickness
of the filters can be 50 or 100 mm depending on the sizes or the setups. The filters are always removed
from the front of the unit. Higher efficiency and low head loss filters ISO ePM10 (M5), ISO ePM10 75%
(M6), ISO ePM1 50% (F7) may be supplied upon request (refer to the corresponding options for further
details). If the specific option (CF) is ordered, the condition of the filters is constantly monitored by a
differential pressure switch that signals when they are excessively fouled.

Compressors are either rotary or scroll type (depending on size): they operate with refrigerant R410A and
have a power supply of 400V/3~/50Hz. Models with an up to 8kW nominal capacity require a power supply
to the compressor of 230V/1~/50Hz (optionally, 400V three phase power).
All compressors are provided with the following:
• internal thermal overload protection which automatically cuts out the power supply in the event of a
thermal overload and internal bypass valve between high and low pressure;
• pre-filled oil and heater for crankcase pre-heating;
• internal mechanical non-return valve on gas delivery line
Evaporator coils consist of a finned pack, copper tubes and aluminium fins with a corrugated profile and
hydrophilic surface treatment. The sensible heat ratio is close to 1. All direct expansion coils are specifically
designed and sized for use with refrigerant R410A, and they are guaranteed for pressure values up to 45
bar. A stainless steel condensation collection basin is installed at the base of the coil, complete with fitting
for drain and siphon.
VERSIONS
The version in all models indicates the operating mode required to preserve the thermo-hygrometric
conditions in the relevant environment. HH versions are fitted with cooling, heating and
humidificationdevices. In addition to the temperature probe fitted on he air return line, these units are
provided with a humidity probe that is used to control the humidity parameter as well. More specifically,
when the relative humidity drops below the desired value, the humidifier outputs vapour into the
environment. The HH ersion may be supplied without heaters upon request. Versions CO/CH (where fitted
with an additional humidity probe) and HH are also used for de-humidification of the environment whenever
the humidity value exceeds the desired threshold. Please keep in ind that the unitshave limited
dehumidification properties for the intended type of application. For more efficient de-humidification, the
units can modulate their components to increase their latent heat removal capabilities via software where
these operations re programmed. When de-humidification is required, the units can reduce the fan speed
and increase their de-humidification capability.
The heating elements are made of AISI304 steel and have low surface temperature, spiral AISI304 steel
fins featuring a safety bimetal thermostat. The heating elementsare grouped in banks that are made of
galvanised sheet metal with a locked electric box or they are installed in circle configuration around the
fan (“XS” sizes). The electric heaters are controlled according to power steps (either one or two depending
on the unit size).
• Frames SXS,XS,S: 1 power step.
• All other frames: 2 power steps.

When the necessary option is fitted, the unit can be equipped with an immersed electrode humidifier to
wet the air in cases where the air humidity is below the setpoint stored. The operating principle of the
humidifier is as follows. A container featuring lectrodes is filled with water until the electrodes are slightly
covered, as water serves as the conducting medium between the electrodes. The Joule effect causes the
running current to heat the water which evaporates as soon as it reaches the boilingpoint. The utput
vapour is transferred to the environment. The solution with immersed electrodes is fully safe from a health
standpoint and it is designed for proportional adjustment of vapour generation.
The electrical panel located in a dedicated compartment and separately from the air flow is made in
accordance with IEC standards. It includes:
• a main power switch;
• automatic switches for the power circuit and the auxiliary circuit;
• contactors for power loads;
• phase sequence relays (on direct expansion, three-phase units);
• a transformer to separate the power lines of the power circuits and the control circuits;
• a microprocessor electronic controller;
• an auxiliary terminal board for the electrical connection of loads and external signals/ok signals.
The electrical control panel is always accessible from the front part of the unit. The main power switch is
supplied with a door lock handle that prevents opening of the electrical control panel door if the power
supply is enabled. The electrical control panel is structured in such way that it meets protection level IP42.
The microprocessor controller inside the electrical control panel is provided with the following
functions/features:
• display showing the return air temperature;
• humidity (versions HH or featuring the relevant option);
• display showing the temperature in the delivery line;
• display showing the fan speed;
• two-level alarm message(s) (serious alarm and minor alarm);
• log recording of the last 100 alarms;
• operating hour meter;
• display showing the status of the controlled devices;
• display showing the status of inputs and outputs of the microprocessor.
Power supply [V/ph/Hz]: 230/1~/50 ±5% for sizes 6.1, 8.1; 400/3~/50 ±5% for the other models. The
following potential-free contacts are supplied in the terminal board as standard:
• remote ON/OFF;
• serious alarm;
• minor alarm (message).

HARDWARE
input/output boards including a 32-bit, 100 MHz microprocessor, with a 128-Mbyte non-volatile (FLASH)
memory, 90Mbyte of which are available as file storage, and a 16 Mbyte data memory (RAM). Three
different board sizes are used to optimise the number of nputs and outputs with respect to the application;
a humidifier-specific I/O board (which is therefore only fitted if this option is selected) communicating with
the master board in serial mode;a driver for the electronic expansion valve (where this option is elected)
to pilot the electronic valve and integrate its data and functions in the machine. Communicationwith the
master board is in serial mode. The graphic terminal is a 4.3” touch screen panel. The electronic technology
featured and the 65.000 colour display help manage high quality images and advanced functions. The
touch screen panel is also designed for easier man-machine interaction as it makes screen browsing much
more user-friendly. The display is also supplied with a LED bar featuring different message- ssociated
colours. The machine status can be viewed at any time without having to go close to the display. Another
innovative feature is the front position of the USB outlet for easier access without the use of specific tools.
TESTING
All units are leak tested for possible leaks. Units are filled with a mix of nitrogen and helium (30 bar for
direct expansion systems). The circuit is pressurised and left in such condition for a predefined period of
time (which varies according to the mix used), after which the pressure level is tested. The entire circuit
is also checked for micro leaks with a sniffer. The units are then subjected to a functional test which
includes the following, among others:
• inspection that the correct options are fitted and the necessary documentation is available;
• software uploading in the unit controller and parameter setup, based on the unit and the featured options;
• inspection that the probes can read correctly and probe calibration, where necessary;
• functional dry run testing.
The units are finally delivered as follows:
