the nozzles and air vent valve, to avoid bacterial growth.

Air vent valve

 value.

Air vent valve

: If the adiabatic system is called to run (which means the interlock on the unit (cooler or condenser) authorizes 

the adiabatic system to run and the cooling demand is high enough) and the pipes were drained, once the pump starts, the 

air vent valve remains open during the time set here, to purge the air and fill the pipes. This parameter is normally adjusted 

in the field by inserting a high value, starting the system, measuring the time it takes to fill the pipes and then readjusting 

the value accordingly.
