HEATLESS MODE
Heatless Mode is an operation that can be utilized if any of the
following upset conditions should happen:
• Blower motor failure
• Heater failures
During these upset conditions, the unit will not be able to
function due to the failure of any one of the listed components
above. To keep the unit operating, Aircel has provided a
solution; Heatless Mode. In heatless mode, the unit will
regenerate each tower utilizing certain steps while locking out
others. The timing has been altered in the program to make
this functional. This will keep the unit running long enough to
replace the components without much downtime.
TO PLACE THE UNIT IN HEATLESS MODE:
Please follow the steps below to place the unit in heatless
mode.
Note:
The unit will not operate correctly if the
heatless mode button is pressed during any other step
than depressurization. Please follow the instructions below
properly.
• Turn unit off to ensure there is no power present
in the panel.
• Remove the heater fuses to ensure the heater
will not operate by accident.
• Once the fuses are removed and the panel is
locked, return power to the panel.
• After the startup period of 3 to 4 minutes, the
PLC will be ready to communicate with the HMI.
• Navigate to the service menu and select Activate
Service Mode.
• Once in service mode, return to the operations
screen and step through to the re-pressurization
step (6 or 12).
• Return to the service menu and Deactivate
Service Mode.
• Activate heatless mode by pressing the Heatless
Mode Off button.
• Navigate back to the Operations screen.
The unit should now be in heatless mode and switching
towers every 7.5 minutes. This will keep the unit running.
Please note that in heatless mode, the unit will be
using dry air from the outlet of the unit to purge the
regenerating vessel. This may cause a slight decrease in air
flow from the dryer.
To deactivate heatless mode (once the component has
been replaced), follow the steps below:
• Wait till the unit is in re-pressurization steps 6 or
12.
• Deactivate heatless mode by pressing the
heatless mode button in the service menu.
• The unit will now return to standard blower
purge mode.
• Turn the power off to the panel and replace the
heater fuses.
• Re-apply power and return to normal operations.
For more assistance, please contact a service technician by
