Dry Running - Saci smart Manual De Instalación Y Mantenimiento

6 - DRY RUNNING

By means of this submenu you can enable (by default disabled) the detection against
dry running.
If activated, this function will be operative 4 minutes after the start of the pump.
Also, if activated, we can change the sensitivity of the detection, from +3 (very sensitive)
to -3 (very permissive), with 0 being the default value.
7 - MAINTENANCE
The time controller can advise when cleaning the basket in the pump is recommended
as well as when it is recommended to clean the sand filter.
The alerts, if they are active, simply show a message on the screen, which can be reset.
Warnings can be adjusted individually, indicating how frequently, in days, we want to
be warned regarding the cleaning of the basket or filter, as the case may be. If they are
active, they will simply show a message on the screen accompanied by a blinking light
"ALARM". These warnings are only informative, with the aim of helping us to carry out
the general maintenance tasks of the filtration system.
8 - CONSUMPTION
Through this submenu we can modify the referenced value as nominal consumption
of the pump.
This parameter is of utmost importance, since the electrical protections of the pump
(overload and dry running), take as a base the value indicated in this point.
In no case should a value be indicated that differs by more than 10 from the nominal
consumption of the motor.
9 - INPUT/OUTPUT
The external intake as well as the relay output can be activated in this submenu (deac-
tivated by default). Press to activate/deactivate. Both the input and the output act
as free power contacts.
If the external intake is enabled, the pump will automatically start if active contact is
detected, and will deactivate when contact is deactivated. Activation by active contact
depends on programming in section "3. FILTRATION". Deactivation by deactivated contact
takes into account the programming in section "3. FILTRATION" to decide whether the
pump is in a programmed filtering cycle or not.
This intake also enables the remote activation/deactivation of the pump through a PT-100
type temperature probe.
In this case, the system decides, depending on the temperature recorded by the censor,
the activation and deactivation time of the pump, from running for 1 minute and stopped
for 59 minutes at +3ºC up to a maximum of 55 minutes running per 5 minutes stopped
at very low temperatures (-30ºC). In this extreme range of temperatures, activation and
deactivation are calculated automatically.
Starting with software version v6.5 (you can see the software version of your device by
pressing from the main screen), the manual activation of the pump can be timed,
from 2 minutes to 30 minutes.
This function is interesting for the timed activation of the pump for use in water games,
Jacuzzi, etc ...
The pump output, if it is enabled, will activate the relay marked as "chlorinator" when the
pump is activated and deactivated. This contact can be used to enable operation of a salt
chlorinator or to remotely control the pump status.
