The e-Manager+ is a web interface, available on request, which allows the monitoring and management of the unit remotely through a simple access to a web page. The connection can be made through the use of personal computer physically connected to the unit or remotely with the aid of a modem via Ethernet TCP / IP.
To access to e-Manager+ is sufficient to use the main browsers such as Google Chrome or Safari. If the on-board controller is connected to an internet network, you can easily access it through Smartphone.
The use of e-Manager+ can be strategic in the case of "special" applications, for which the constant monitoring of machines is required, thanks to the data collection function: this feature, through continuous data recording, allows the collection and the immediate display of the operating data of the unit through graphs and tables, available to the user who can easily analyze the collected data and export it in several file formats.
- Turn on / off the unit
- Change seasonality (summer / winter)
- Change Set Points
- View active components and functions
- View the main operating variables of the unit in real time
- Display the I / O (Digital and / or Analog Inputs / Outputs) of the controller
- Display active alarms
- Reset non-serious alarms
- View graphs of the unit's operating data of one-day period
- Download the data
- Access the PLC control panel of the unit
Thanks to this device it is possible to handle up to 6 modules of equal or different capacities, even of different types and for different system configurations. It is also possible to control one or more backup units and integrated or external pump groups . The control logic developed by Thermocold is able to coordinate air/water or water/water 2-pipe systems, made by units with both screw compressors and multi-scroll compressors, both inverter and on / off.
The adjustment can be set according to the requests, in function of the inlet or outlet water temperature read by the plant probes. Communication between the Multi-Manager system and the unit is performed via RS485 serial connection. A second connection is also available for Modbus communication with third-part BMS systems.
- Balancing of operating hours of the single units
- Balancing of operating hours between different compressors of the units
- Control, activation and balancing of operating hours of water pumps
- Breakdown of the load system by means of two possible criteria: the power balance or saturation of the units.
- Possibility to select the type of adjustment and the reference probe for adjustment (incoming or outgoing)
- Possibility to define the number of Backup Units
- Possibility to activate the steps of each unit in sequence
- Auto On/Off of the system
- Energy Saving & Dynamic Set point of the whole system
- Optimizzation of water flow according to cooling/heating capacity provided by the system
- Gradual start-up in critical conditions with a consequent limitation of absorption
- «Prevent» functions of the group of units, in case of sudden changes of the main magnitudes of the system
