Table 14  

A description of the increase and decrease timer parameters. 

 

The temperature switch points set a minimum temperature at which the precooling system stages may become active.  

Note that this 

setting is not used for freeze protection but is instead intended to prevent the precooling system from operating during 
periods of the year when evaporative cooling is not required. 

 

Parameter

 

 

Description

 

 

Default

 

 

Stage 1-4

 

 

The minimum temperature above which the associated stage of 
the precooling system may activate.

 

 

0°F

 

 

Table 15  

The stage switch point parameters. 

 

Due to the orientation and low water usage of precooling systems equipped with adiabatic pads, it may take several minutes for the 

precooling system to become fully effective.  To prevent the precooling system from cycling during short periods of time, a minimum 
run time for the precooling system may be set.  Once enabled, the precooling system will remain on until the minimum run time for 
the applicable stage is satisfied. 

 

Parameter

 

 

Description

 

 

Default

 

 

Enable Stage On 

Time

 

 

Enables  or  disables  the  stage  minimum  on  timers. 

Note  for 

spray systems, the parameter should be disabled or lower 
the duration of the minimum on timers.

 

 

Enabled 

 

Stage 1-4

 

 

The minimum amount of time that the precooling stage remains 
on once activated.

 

 

1200 seconds
