27Operating the control software
– Forced Drain Interval: with this setting you determine the period of time
after which the forced cylinder draining takes place.
Factory setting: 72 hours
Setting range: 1 ... 100 hours
– Dfactor: with this setting you can increase or decrease the drain time.
Factory setting: 1.0
Setting range: 0.0 ... 100.0
– Drain Mode: with this setting you determine when a corrective drain will
be performed if the software detects excess current.
Factory setting: Fixed ED
Options: Fixed ED (corrective drain will be performed at
an excess current of 115 % of the current at full
capacity)
Float ED (corrective drain will be performed at an
excess current of 115 % of the current of the pre-
sent demand and a warning message is triggered)
– Foam Mode: with this setting you determine whether foaming in the
steam cylinder is detected with appropriate corrective actions ("Basic" or
"Advanced") or not ("Off").
Factory setting: Basic
Options: Basic (basic foam detection)
Advanced (advanced foam detection, requires the
installation of an optional hardware kit)
Off (foam detection deactivated)
– Cal. Drain Mode: with this setting you determine how the steam cylinder
will be drained to control water conductivity in the cylinder.
Factory setting: Prell
Options: Prell (rst ll then drain)
Basic (normal drain)
Multi (performs multiple short drains and lls until
the accumulated time of the short drains is equal to
calculated drain time.)
