This section provides a detailed description of how the Liebert Mini-Mate2 responds to operator 

inputs and room conditions.

7.1

Temperature Control

7.1.1 Cooling/Heating Required

The temperature control program for the microprocessor is based on a calculated percentage 

requirement for cooling/heating.

7.1.2 Cooling Operation (Cooling, Compressorized Direct Expansion and Chilled Water)

Cooling is ACTIVATED when the temperature control calculates a requirement for cooling of 100%. It 

is DEACTIVATED when the cooling requirement drops below 50%. The optional hot gas bypass is 

energized when a call for cooling occurs unless there is also a call for dehumidification.

7.1.3 Heating Operation

Electric Heat or Hot Water

The reheat stage is ACTIVATED when the temperature control calculates a requirement of 100%. 

The reheat is DEACTIVATED when the heat requirement is 50% less than the activation point.

Ground Current Detector (GCD)

A Ground Current Detector is factory-installed on all 1-ton through 3-ton Liebert Mini-Mate2 units 

with reheat. The GCD detects reheat leakage current and shuts down operation of the reheat. A 

steady green LED indicates that the reheat is operating properly. A red LED indicates that the reheat 

has failed and both the reheat element and GCD need to be replaced.
