OMEGA SKY XI
Omega Sky Xi is a water-condensed liquid chiller for in-
door applications, available in heat pump version also.
This range features a semi-hermetic, inverter-controlled
screw compressor to obtain max. performances at partial
loads, a latest generation Hybrid Falling Film evaporator
with low refrigerant load, and a ooded shell and tube
condenser.
These elements make Omega Sky Xi an extremely per-
forming machine in all operating conditions, which enables
it to largely exceed the targets mandated by the existing
regulations and to ensure max. comfort levels.
REFRIGERANT
Refrigerant R513A standard.
R513A is distinguished by its low environmental impact,
with GWP=573 (*). It is also a non-toxic and non-am-
mable uid: A1 classication in accordance with ASHRAE;
PED 2.
These characteristics make R513A ideal for indoor units;
they also facilitate adoption of the model in places where
there are certain local requirements regarding the envi-
ronmental impact caused by refrigerants.
This has positive eects on transport, operation and main-
tenance and also on overall cost eectiveness, as regards
possible taxation or restrictions on the use of refrigerants
with high environmental impact.
The model can be supplied with refrigerant R134a as op-
tion.
(*) GWP (AR5), pursuant to IPCC V, evaluated over a span
of 100 years.
STRUCTURE
Consists of polyester powder coated hot dip galvanised
sheet steel proles (RAL 9005).
The electrical control panel is made in a polyester pow-
der-coated hot dip galvanised sheet steel box (RAL 7035).
COMPRESSORS
Units t innovative screw compressors with a variable
compression ratio, which ensure optimised operation un-
der all operating conditions.
The BlueThink controller constantly monitors the evaporat-
ing and condensing temperatures of the unit and changes
the compression ratio of the compressors to obtain the
max. achievable eciency.
The compressors in use are designed according to an ex-
clusive BlueBox specication in order to achieve max. e-
ciency both under partial and full load conditions.
Continuous reduction of the output capacity is implement-
ed with a regulation from 25% to 100% in order to achieve
the highest energy eciency levels on the market, with
special reference to cooling applications. The variation of
the compression ratio caused by the sliding of the internal
slide valve, in combination with capacity reduction of the
refrigeration demand by the inverter, allows for the maxi-
misation of the energy eciency of the unit in all operat-
ing conditions.
In addition to managing capacity modulation, BlueThink
also controls all safety devices so that the compressor can
operate within its operating limits at all times and simulta-
neously safeguard its operation and reliability. Compressor
lubrication is ensured by the pressure dierence between
the delivery and the suction lines, thanks to the regulation
action performed by BlueThink.
All the compressors are tted with check valve on delivery
side, metal mesh lter on suction side and electronic pro-
tection with temperature sensors directly inserted in the
windings and on the delivery pipe.
Startup in compressors featuring an inverter is of the “Di-
rect On Line” type with an inverter-controlled acceleration
ramp that minimises inrush currents.
In addition to the obvious energy savings arising from
greater eciency, the use of a full inverter unit also brings
advantages in terms of installation:
• For these units, the cosφ (power factor) is always great-
er than 0.95, therefore making external power factor
correction systems unnecessary.
• The maximum inrush current of the unit is always lower
than its maximum absorbed current (calculated in the
worst operating condition), therefore making the power
cables and line protection devices less onerous.
All the compressors are tted as standard with crankcase
heater and discharge valve.
SOURCE-SIDE HEAT EXCHANGER
Flooded shell-and-tube heat exchanger, with single water
passage on tube side. Steel shell, and tube bundle made
with copper tubes. The heads can be removed for tube
inspection and cleaning. Victaulic couplings on water side
(complete with nipple for connection).
USER-SIDE HEAT EXCHANGER
Latest generation shell and tube heat exchanger Hybrid
Falling Film with two passes.
The new technology combines the features of a traditional
ooded evaporator and the Falling Film evaporator, thus
ensuring low approach temperatures and a low refrigerant
load.
Below is a sample cross-section of the evaporator.

The heat exchanger consists of a steel shell insulated with
closed-cell foam material, while the tube bundle is made
with copper tubes. The heads can be removed for tube
inspection and cleaning. Victaulic couplings on water side
(complete with nipple for connection). On the hydraulic
connections of the heat exchanger, there are also pipe
taps for the dierential pressure switch, and wells for the
temperature probes.
REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT
The refrigerant circuit of the unit comprises:
• discharge valve for each compressors
• charging valves
• liquid sight glass
• a solid cartridge dehydrator lter, which can be replaced
on the uid line;
• a hermetic dehydrator lter on the oil recovery line;
• an oil warning light;
• electronic expansion valve
• pressure transducers for reading the high and low pres-
sure values and relevant evaporating and condensing
temperatures
• pressure transducers and a temperature probe designed
to sense the subcooling value after the condenser;
• a high pressure switch;
• a high and low pressure safety valve;
• an oil separator in the delivery line;
• an oil level warning light;
• jet pumps for oil recovery from the evaporator.
The pipes of the refrigerant circuit and the heat exchanger
on the user side are insulated with extruded closed-cell
expanded elastomer.
With reference to the Hybrid Falling Film technology, the
refrigerant subcooling value is checked through the meas-
urement of the temperature and pressure downline of the
condenser, as shown in the picture below:
The electronic expansion valve is designed to oer en-
hanced stability during operation and to maximise the use
of evaporation under all load conditions. This also acts as
shut-o valve on the liquid line, thereby preventing haz-
ardous refrigerant migrations during compressor stops.
ELECTRICAL CONTROL PANEL

VERSIONS
Alongside the basic version of the unit, there are the fol-
lowing versions
OH: non-reversible heat pump
This is a heat pump for heating only. Compared to the ba-
sic version, both user-side and source-side heat exchang-
ers are insulated.
HPW: reversible heat pump on water side.
This reversible heat pump is suitable for applications in
which the user-side circuit and the source-side circuit can
be exchanged with each other. Therefore, the tter must
make provision for a system of valves that will allow ex-
change of the two hydraulic circuits. If the seasonal mode
change is carried out via remote signal or BMS, the unit
can control motor-driven reversing valves (not supplied)
so as to make this operation fully automatic.
Compared to the basic version, both user-side and source-
side heat exchangers are insulated.
OPTIONS
/LN: low noise version
The unit includes a soundproong compartment on the
compressor consisting of a rigid outer cowling made of
galvanised and painted sheet metal (RAL 7035), lined with
sound absorbing matting with high acoustic impedance
material in between.
/XLN: super low noise version
The unit includes:
• soundproong compartment on the compressor con-
sisting of a rigid outer cowling made of galvanised and
painted sheet metal (RAL 7035), lined with sound ab-
sorbing matting with high acoustic impedance material
in between.
• Cover jacket on the compressor made of: 50 mm
noise-absorbing material made with self-extinguish-
ing polyester bre on the compressor side - density
30 Kg/m³ -, soundproof rubber sheet - density 6 Kg/
m³ -, placed in-between the polyester layers, and an
additional layer of noise-absorbing material made with
self-extinguishing polyester bre on the sheath side -
density 30 kg/m³. Total thickness 70 mm
/DC: unit with total recovery condenser
In addition to the basic version, the following elements are
included in the chiller unit only:
• a recovery section of condensation heat (100%), fea-
tured inside the condenser;
• a temperature probe at the inlet of the heat recovery
heat exchanger
• potential free contact in the electrical control panel for
activation of heat recovery. When required by the sys-
tem, through the closing of a contact, the controller au-
tomatically manages activation of heat recovery. Heat
recovery management is carried out through a control
on the temperature of the return water. The controller
also automatically manages safety deactivation of heat
recovery, if the condensing pressure becomes too high,
and switches to using the source-side heat exchanger.

DESCRIPTION OF ACCESSORIES
Some accessories may be incompatible with each other even if not expressly indicated.
Refrigerant
R134 R134a
Unit supplied with refrigerant R134a instead of R513A.
Refrigerant circuit accessories
VM2 Condensation control with 2-way modulating valve
The accessory includes the supply of a 2-way modulating valve complete with servo control to be installed
on the source-side hydraulic circuit (installation by the customer). The servo control is controlled via a 0-10V
signal from the control depending on the condensing pressure.
This accessory is to be used in applications where it is benecial, when possible, to reduce the total ow rate
of water coming from the source (for example, when well water is used). When the unit reaches the setpoint,
the valve will be forced to close.
Accessory supplied loose.
VM3 Condensation control with 3-way modulating valve
The accessory includes the supply of a 3-way modulating valve complete with servo control to be installed
on the source-side hydraulic circuit (installation by the customer). The servo control is controlled via a 0-10V
signal from the control depending on the condensing pressure.
This accessory is to be used in applications where it is benecial, when possible, to reduce the ow rate of
water sent to the source-side heat exchanger (for example, when water from a loop is used). When the unit
reaches the set point, the valve will be forced to total recirculation.
Accessory supplied loose.
SCU Cumulative 0-10V signal for condensation control
This accessory requires a 0-10V output in the terminal board to carry out condensation control through a
device outside the machine (2-way valve, 3-way valve, inverter-controlled pump). The signal is linked to the
condensing pressure.
The signal is cumulative and therefore the accessory is suitable for combination on units in which there is a
single condensation control device located on the common branch of the source.
Incompatible with condensation control with modulating valve.
DVS Double safety valve
With this accessory, instead of each individual safety valve per circuit, there is a "candelabrum" with two safety
valves and a diverter valve for choosing the valve in operation. This allows the safety valves to be replaced
without having to drain the machine and without having to stop it.
MAFR Pressure gauges
The operating pressures of each circuit of the unit can be displayed on the control by accessing the relevant
screens. Also, the machine can be tted with pressure gauges (two for each circuit) installed in a clearly visible
position. These allow reading in real time of the working pressures of the refrigerant gas on the low pressure
side and on the high pressure side of each refrigerant circuit.
RUBA Compressor suction valves
The valves situated on the suction side of the compressors allow the compressor to be isolated from the rest
of the refrigerant circuit, so making the maintenance operations quicker and less invasive.
The compressor discharge valve is standard on all compressors
RPP Refrigerant leak detector with automatic pump down
This accessory includes a refrigerant leak detector. Detection of a refrigerant leak is managed by the controller
through a specic alarm and display of a specic icon on the display of the controller. For all the circuits of the
unit, the alarm also starts the machine stopping procedure with pump down, conning all the refrigerant in
the condenser.
Accessory as an alternative to Refrigerant leak detector.

8
BK Brine Kit
This accessory is compulsory if a water temperature set point lower than or equal to +3°C is used (if the unit
is provided with double set point or variable set point, the lower set point is considered).
The accessory consists of increased insulation and suitable sizing and calibration of some components.
The inlet and outlet temperatures of the user-side exchanger must be given on ordering to allow correct set-
ting of the alarm parameters and verication of the sizing of the expansion valve.
The cooling set point can then be changed by the customer in an interval that, compared to the set point given
on ordering, ranges from -1K up to the allowed limit temperature.
The unit will be optimized to work at the set point temperature given on ordering. For dierent set points, the
cooling capacity provided and the level of eciency of the machine could decrease and move away from these
conditions.
This accessory obligatorily requires insertion of one of the condensation control options.
RPR Refrigerant leak detector
This accessory includes a refrigerant leak detector. Detection of a refrigerant leak is managed by the controller
through a specic alarm and display of a specic icon on the display of the controller. This alarm stops the unit.
Accessory as an alternative to Refrigerant leak detector with automatic pump down.
Hydraulic circuit accessories
CFC Flanged hydraulic connections + counteranges
Depending on the version of the unit, anges and counteranges are supplied for:
• user side
• on the source side.
• recovery side
Accessory supplied loose.
FVF FLOWZER VFPP – Kit for variable ow rate primary circuit pump with bypass valve
included
Bluethink solution for a variable ow rate system, consisting solely of a user-side primary circuit.
Flowzer VFPP includes:
• a pressure transducer installed at the ends of the user-side exchanger (Δpe)
• a dedicated control system, installed at the factory in the electrical control panel of the unit (Sc)
• a modulating bypass valve with servo-motor supplied separately with it (Vbp), supplied loose (installation by
the customer)
• two system pressure transducers (Δpp) supplied separately (installation by the customer)
The components above and the pump inverter must be selected at the time of the pre-sale agreements, de-
pending on the features of the system. This has an impact on the quotation of the option and on the supply
terms of the concerned components.
In particular, the unit includes an additional control system, equipped with an advanced algorithm, which in-
teracts with the main advanced Bluethink controller.

Flowzer VFPP has the advantage of:
• implementing an innovative design, which is alternative to the classic system based on xed ow-rate pri-
mary circuit plus secondary circuit
• being ideal for new or entirely redesigned systems, especially for comfort applications
• achieving a complete variable ow system, with maximum energy saving
• simplifying the layout of the user circuit
• limiting the capex of the system
• achieving complete and reliable control of the system
The maximum energy saving is achieved thanks to:
• a hydraulic decoupler managed by the modulating bypass valve, which regulates the bypass ow rate on
the lowest possible value
• an advanced algorithm to prevent hunting by the reversing valve and by the bypass valve, thereby balanc-
ing the pump speed and the bypass speed to a minimum
The capex of the system is also reduced thanks to:
• small internal footprint, due to the simplied layout
The operating principle can be summarized as follows:
• Flowzer VFPP carries out constant control of the discharge head
• the system controller modulates the pump speed according to the condition detected by the system trans-
ducers Δpp
• if the system terminals are switched o, the pump speed will decrease
• the pump speed can be reduced until it reaches the minimum allowed ow rate on the heat exchanger of
the unit
• this ow rate is indirectly monitored through the losses detected by the dierential pressure transducer Δpe
• When the minimum allowed ow rate threshold is exceeded, the control system will open the bypass valve
Vbp to recirculate the ow rate that is not required by the system, but is necessary to guarantee the mini-
mum ow rate to the heat exchanger.
In the required minimum load condition (that is, with all system terminals switched o), the required minimum
volume (Vmin) must be concentrated in the relevant tank, to be installed between the unit and the bypass valve.
The bypass valve Vbp is controlled through a 0-10 V signal and must therefore be installed within 30 m of the
unit.
The pressure transducers of the system Δpp provide a 4-20 mA signal and require two 1/4" female ttings.
These transducers must be installed within 200 m of the unit, near the system terminal that is aected by
the highest line head losses or in any case in a position where it is possible to measure an adequate pressure
value.
Further details can be found in the relevant manual.
FVPS FLOWZER VPS – Kit for variable ow rate pump with temperature sensors
Bluethink solution for a variable ow rate system, consisting of a primary circuit plus secondary circuit.
Flowzer VPS includes:
• a dierential pressure transducer, installed at the factory at the ends of the user-side heat exchanger of the
unit (Δpe)
• a dedicated control system, installed at the factory in the electrical control panel of the unit (Sc)
• two system temperature sensors (T) - supplied separately; installation by the customer

10
The components above and the pump inverter must be selected at the time of the pre-sale agreements, de-
pending on the features of the system. This has an impact on the quotation of the option and on the supply
terms of the concerned components.
In particular, the unit includes an additional control system, equipped with an advanced algorithm, which in-
teracts with the main advanced Bluethink controller.
Flowzer VPS has the advantage of:
• being ideal for renovations of existing systems, especially for comfort applications
• achieving a complete variable ow system, with maximum energy saving
• implementing a exible design, e.g. for scalable or multi-zone systems
The maximum energy saving is achieved thanks to the advanced algorithm, which prevents hunting by the
inverter and balances the pump speed and the recirculation ow rate to a minimum.
With refurbishments, the system's capex is limited to the unit and its commissioning.
The dimensions of the inverter of the unit and of the pump module can be favoured by the low design dis-
charge head of the primary circuit.
The operating principle can be summarized as follows:
• Flowzer VPS performs intelligent control of the ow rate on the primary circuit, and balances it compared to
the ow diagram of the secondary circuit
• the system controller modulates the pump speed according to the condition detected by the system sensors
T
• if the system terminals are switched o, the ow rate of the secondary circuit will decrease; therefore the
direction of ow is detected indirectly as temperature dierence by the system sensors through the separa-
tor or the bypass pipe
• the system controller will consequently force the primary pump to reduce its speed, until it reaches the
minimum allowed ow rate on the heat exchanger of the unit
• this ow rate is indirectly monitored through the losses detected by the dierential pressure transducer Δpe
In the required minimum load condition (that is, with all system terminals switched o), the necessary mini-
mum volume (Vmin) must be ensured by the relevant tank to be installed between the unit and the decoupler
or bypass pipe.
The temperature sensors of the system T provide a 4-20 mA signal and require 1/2" female ttings.
Further details can be found in the relevant manual.

Electrical accessories
LIID Limitation of the current absorbed by digital input
When this accessory is requested, a digital input is prepared in the terminal board to activate the forced ca-
pacity reduction of the unit to a set xed level.
This accessory is useful when there is a need to necessarily limit the power absorbed by the unit as regards
particular conditions.
We point out that, in some conditions (for example, during hourly compressor rotation procedures), the con-
troller could force the unit to operate at full capacity for limited periods of time.
SETD Double set point from digital input
The accessory allows you to preset two dierent operating set points and manage the change from one to the
other through a digital signal.
The set point temperatures must be specied when ordering. For optimization of the unit, reference will be
made to the lower set point in chiller mode and the higher set point in heat pump mode.
Unless otherwise specied in the order, the controller will be set at the factory with the following temperatures:
• in chiller mode, set point 1 to 7°C and set point 2 to 12°C
• in heat pump mode (only for HPW and OH units) set point 1 at 45°C and set point 2 at 40°C
CSP Set point compensation depending on external air temperature
For units tted with this accessory, the set point of the unit is set so that it can vary between two values, a
maximum and a minimum, depending on the external air temperature. The compensation ramp and the max-
imum and minimum values of the set point can be changed by the user.
Unless otherwise specied in the order, the controller will be set to implement a positive compensation logic
according to the temperatures shown in the following diagrams:

IA Automatic circuit breakers (instead of fuses)
This accessory requires the installation of automatic circuit breakers, instead of fuses, for the protection of
auxiliary loads. Also, the same accessory uses automatic circuit breakers with adjustable thermal overload
protection to protect the compressors.

12
SETV Variable set point with remote signal
The accessory allows the set point to be varied continuously between two preset values, a maximum and a
minimum, depending on an external signal that can be of the 0-1V, 0-10V or 4-20mA type.
The set point temperatures and the type of signal to use for the adjustment must be specied when ordering.
For optimization of the unit, reference will be made to the lower set point in chiller mode and the higher set
point in heat pump mode.
Unless otherwise specied in the order, the controller will be set at the factory with 0-10V analogue input and
with the following temperatures:
• in chiller mode, 0V will correspond to a set point of 7°C and 10V will correspond to a set point of 12°C
• in heat pump mode (only for HPW and OH units), 0V will correspond to a set point of 45°C and 10V will
correspond to a set point of 40°C
DAM Double power supply with manual switching
A manual switch to which to connect two separate power supply lines (for example, one from the mains power
line and one from the uninterruptible power supply unit) is installed in the electrical control panel of the unit.
The switching from one line to another is manual and obligatorily requires passing through the OFF position.
DAA Double power supply with automatic switching
A motor-driven automatic switch to which to connect two separate power supply lines (for example, one from
the mains power line and one from the uninterruptible power supply unit) is installed in the electrical control
panel of the unit.
The switching from one line to another is automatic and obligatorily requires passing through the OFF position.
When this accessory is requested, the power supply of the unit must compulsorily include neutral.
ENM Energy meter
The accessory allows the main electrical quantities (including voltage, current, power) to be read on the three
phases, via current transformer.
This accessory communicates with the BlueThink controller to supervise the monitored data. The values meas-
ured are then made available through the unit display and the web server.
ENML Energy meter with current limiter
The accessory allows the main electrical quantities (including voltage, current, power) to be read on the three
phases, via current transformer.
This accessory communicates with the BlueThink controller to supervise the monitored data. The values meas-
ured are then made available through the unit display and the web server.
This accessory is designed to limit the max. current the unit can absorb. The controller instantly checks the
absorption levels and, where necessary, it applies a forced capacity reduction that keeps the absorbed current
value below the stored threshold.
GFC FC/NG management
This option is available only for the basic model (chiller).
The option includes conguration of the BlueThink controller of the unit, in order to carry out the free-cooling
mode, without using glycol.
The option also includes integration in the machine of: free-cooling pump relay, consent for external dry cooler,
system return probe and dry-cooler inlet and outlet probes.
The components required for making the system, and also the hydraulic and electrical connections to the unit,
are to be provided by the customer.
More specically, the system will consist of:

RMMT Maximum and minimum voltage relay
This accessory constantly monitors the voltage value and the unit's power supply phase sequence. If the sup-
ply voltage does not fall within the set parameters or there is a phase reversal, an alarm is generated that
stops the machine to prevent damage to its main parts
FARE Fast Restart
The Fast Restart accessory enables the controller to carry out a fast restart of the unit following a blackout, in
order to reduce machine down times to a minimum.
This accessory requires the provision of a power supply line dedicated to the controller (uninterruptible power
supply unit installed by the customer) and a maximum and minimum voltage relay in the electrical control
panel. In this way, the controller of the unit will always remain powered even during a blackout.
Once the main power supply returns after a blackout, the starting of the rst compressor takes place within 60
seconds and the full capacity of the unit is reached in about 180 seconds (a time that depends on the number
of compressors and the instant load level).
In order to protect component service life, the controller may carry out the Fast Restart procedure no more
than 3 times in an hour and 5 times in one day.
Also, to make it easier to carry out any maintenance on the power supply line dedicated to the controller, there
is a selector switch inside the electrical control panel to allow the controller to be powered directly from the
main power supply of the machine.
Includes "Maximum and minimum voltage relay".
TERM Remote-controlled user terminal panel
This accessory allows the terminal normally situated on the machine to be replicated on a support situated at
a distance. It is particularly suitable when the unit is placed in an area that is not easily accessible.
The accessory is supplied loose and is to be installed by the customer at a maximum distance of 120m from
the unit. We advise using a cable of the following type: "TECO O.R. FE 2x2xAWG24 SN/ST/PUR".
For this accessory, there is a dedicated serial port.

Network accessories
BEET Blueye® via Ethernet
Blueye® is a supervision platform that enables remote monitoring of one or more units in the same system
interconnected through a network with Modbus protocol.
This accessory features the Blueye device, as already installed and wired in the unit.
The critical variables to be monitored over time are identied for each connected device. These variables are
sampled and saved to the cloud so that they are accessible at all times through a web portal or a mobile APP
(available for Android and iOS).
The following options can be selected for connection to the internet:
• a LAN (Ethernet) connection - available in the system;
• a connection to a mobile network - at least 3G. The data SIM card is not included.
Three dierent types of contracts can be signed.
Blueye® Cloud Basic:
• to monitor a max. of 20 variables in total over max. 5 units/peripherals;
• to set a min. sampling frequency of 60 seconds.
Blueye® Cloud Advanced:
• to monitor a max. of 200 variables in total over max. 10 units/peripherals;
• to set a min. sampling frequency of 5 seconds.
Blueye® Connect:
• To monitor up to 10 units/peripherals.
Subscribing to any of the Blueye® Cloud enables:
• viewing the history of the monitored variables, in the form of both numerical values and graphs;
• downloading the history of variables in CSV format;
• the creation of automatic reports;
• setting notications (via APP or mail) with settable thresholds for each variable;
• switching the unit ON/OFF remotely;;
• changing the set point remotely;
• selection of SUMMER/WINTER mode remotely (for reversible units only).
The subscription to the Blueye® Connect service oers the advantages below:
• a safe connection (tunnelling) between the user and the remote unit through the Blueye® portal;
• full access to the remote controller;
• real time monitoring;
• software upgrading.
Blueye® via Ethernet is only available for units supplied with an advanced controller and does not include
any type of service. This service must be purchased separately based on the number of units/devices to be
connected and the number of variables to be monitored. In order to connect multiple units to #b# Blueye®
device, the network switch is required (this accessory is sold separately).
Units can also be connected to the Blueye device through the RS485 network featuring a Modbus RTU protocol
(for this option, refer to BERS accessory).

FMx Multilogic Function
The Multilogic function allows management of up to 32 units equipped with advanced Bluethink controller and
connected in hydraulic parallel with each other.
On the basis of the information recorded by the temperature probes installed on the delivery and return man-
ifolds of the system, with the master unit, a capacity request is generated that is distributed among the units
connected in the Multilogic network according to settable priority and optimization logics.
If communication between the units fails or if the master is o-line, the slave units can continue to work ac-
cording to the set thermoregulation parameters.
The connected units can be dierent from each other, in terms of capacity and set-up, provided the following
rules are complied with:
• if there are both chiller units and heat pumps in the Multilogic network, the Master unit must obligatorily be
one of the HP units
• if there are both free cooling and non free-cooling units in the Multilogic network, the Master unit must ob-
ligatorily be one of the free-cooling units.
The Multilogic function that can be requested with the unit can be:
• FM0: Multilogic function for Slave unit
• FM2: Multilogic function for Master unit for managing up to 2 Slaves
• FM6: Multilogic function for Master unit for managing up to 6 Slaves
If you need to connect more than 6 slaves (up to 31), you can ask for a quotation from our sales department.
For the slave units, the accessory requires:
• programming of the unit as slave of a system of machines in Multilogic network
For the master units, the accessory requires:
• programming of the unit as master of a system of machines in Multilogic network
• entering of the parameters necessary for connection with the individual slave units
• installation in the electrical control panel of a network switch to allow the units to be connected in a LAN
network.
