LEDs on the DDG unit indicate which temperature is being 
displayed. Pushing the SELECT key will cycle between 
Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature scales. The LED 
labeled “OPTIONAL” corresponds to the dew point 
temperature. If your unit does not include this option, the 
temperature displayed when the “OPTIONAL” LED is lit 
will be about 30° by default. This does NOT indicate that 
the dew point is actually 30°.

 

Drain Operation

 

Locking/Unlocking Drain Time Settings:

 

 The ON 

TIME and OFF TIME settings for all modes of drain 
operation can be unlocked or locked to avoid inadvertent 
changes to these settings. In the unlocked condition, the 
time settings will flash after the SELECT key is pressed 
momentarily, indicating that the values can be changed by 
pressing the UP (

 

 

)or DOWN (

 

 

) arrow keys. In the 

locked condition, the SELECT key must be held down for 5 
seconds before the display will flash and the settings can 
be changed. With the display flashing, pushing the 
SELECT key momentarily will return to normal unlocked 
operation and holding the SELECT key down for 5 
seconds will return to normal locked operation. 

 

Setting Drain ON TIME and OFF TIME:

 

1.

Press the UP (

 

 

) or DOWN (

 

 

) arrow keys until the 

LED indicates that ON TIME or OFF TIME has been 
selected. 

2.

Press SELECT momentarily (if unlocked) or hold until 
the display starts flashing (if locked). If you do not 
know whether the setting is locked or not, simply 
press the select button momentarily. If the digits on 
the LCD display do not start flashing, the setting is 
locked.

3.

Press UP (

 

 

) or DOWN (

 

 

) arrow keys to change the 

settings. The ON TIME is indicated in seconds and 
changes in 0.5-second increments in a range of 0 to 
60 seconds. The OFF TIME is indicated in minutes 
and changes in 0.5-minute increments in a range of 
0 to 60 minutes.

 

Modes of Drain Operation:

 

 The DDG Controller has 

two modes of drain operation for different drain types. The 
mode of operation for timed drains (i.e. 4477 A, B, or C 
models) is described below as item “A.” The mode of 
operation for fully automatic float operated drains (i.e. 
model 4488) is described as item “B.” For all modes, the 
“DRAINS POWER ON” LED indicates that the drain is 
receiving power. Pushing the DRAIN TEST key will send 
power to the drain if it is not already receiving power.

A.

Timed Drain Mode (model 4477 A, B, or C drains):

Set ON TIME and OFF TIME to non-zero values. 
Settings should be such that fluid is adequately 
drained without allowing excessive air loss.

B.

Demand Drain Mode (model 4488 drains):

Set ON TIME and OFF TIME to zero. Drain is given 
continuous power supply and will operate normally. 
In this mode, pushing the DRAIN TEST button will 
have no effect.

 

Alarm Indication

 

The following conditions can cause the alarm indicator to 
light:

• Compressor overload

• Low refrigerant suction pressure

• High refrigerant discharge pressure

• Low oil pressure (semi-hermetic compressors only)

A qualified refrigeration mechanic should identify and 
correct the problem if an alarm condition occurs. 

 

In most 

cases it will be necessary to firmly depress the 
reset push-button located on the dual-pressure 
switch, which is inside the electrical enclosure.

 

 

Follow all safety procedures applicable to electrical 
equipment when opening the electrical enclosure. Refer to 
the Installation, Operation, Start-Up, and Maintenance 
Manual for more information.

 

Service Due Indication

 

“Service Due” indicates the dryer is due for routine 
maintenance. Please read the maintenance section or 
contact your Pneumatech dealer. In SERVICE DUE mode, 
several functions relating to the accumulated run time can 
be accessed. The accumulated run time can be viewed, 
and the service due threshold (total accumulated run time 
before SERVICE DUE indicator lights) can be viewed and 
tested.

 

Drains will not operate normally in Service
Due mode. Drains will not receive power
in Service Due mode unless the DRAIN
TEST key is held down. Never operate the
unit in Service Due mode for an extended
period of time.
