pageintroduction2Hello and congratulations onpurchasing a Breezair DuctedCooler for your home.Breezair coolers have beendesigned to provide quiet,reliable and cool comfort.At Seeley International wemanufacture Breezairevaporative coolers from thehighest quality materials, andwe have designed the productto provide many years ofeconomical, trouble freecooling.Please take a few moments toread these operatinginstructions, so that the mostcan be gained from thisinvestment.Breezair coolers are fittedwith either a Wall MountedThermostat Control or aRemote Thermostat Control.Please refer to the relevantsection in this manual forinstructions on how to operateeither system. Also, please beaware of the components andfeatures that are fitted to yourparticular cooler.Keep these instructions in asafe place for future reference.EFFECTIVE COOLINGTo provide efficient cooling orventilation the building musthave sufficient exhaustopenings to the outside of thebuilding. To assist air flow, openwindows and doors that arefarthest from the outlet vent ineach room. In these rooms,provide an exhaust openingabout 2 times the vent size ofthe room.Where the design of thebuilding prevents adequateexhaust, consideration shouldbe given to the provision ofmechanical extractions, suchas an exhaust fan.In areas where temperaturescan cause water supply pipesto freeze, a drain down facilityshould be provided during theinstallation.This drain down facility must beactivated prior to freezingconditions, to avoid possibledamage to the coolercomponents.Important Note!®®®®®

Toselect this mode press thebutton so that ECONOMYappears on the display.Pressing the button opensthe drain valve in the cooler andempties the water in the tank.This will leave the tank cleanand dry and turn the cooler off.If the cooler has not been usedfor 3 days or 3 hours,depending on the DIP switchsetting - see page 10, the tankwill automatically be drained toensure the system remainsclean.orMANUALCOOLPMFANSPEEDECONOMYILL1125-ADRAIN TANKILL1107-Athermostat controlremotePRE - COOL MODEYour remote control is designedto allow for the saturation of thecooler’s cooling pads beforethe fan is switched on. Thisfunction, referred to as PRE-COOL mode, is enabled at DIPswitch D (refer to page 10).Once it is enabled the cooler,willoperate as follows:(1)...... If the tank is empty thedrain system will beclosed. The tank willthen be filled.(2)...... After 60 seconds of thetank filling with water,the pump will turn onand saturate the filterpads.(3)...... After the pump has beenrunning for 3 minutesthe fan will start.During this operation the wordPRE-COOL will be displayedon the remote control’s screen.NOTE: PRE-COOL mode willnot be activated if VENT isselected on the remote controlor the cooler is used againshortly after having been turnedoff.when first switched on,MANUALCOOLPMFANSPEEDECONOMYILL1142-APRE-COOL®
9WATER MANAGERThe Breezair remote control isfitted with the WaterManagerfeature which automaticallymonitors the quality of the waterin the cooler.The WaterManager drains theexisting water in the cooler toallow it to be replaced with freshwater, only when it is needed.Therefore, you may notice yourcooler draining wateroccasionally. How often theWaterManager performs thisoperation depends upon thequality of the water supply andthe rate of evaporation.In areas of poor water quality,the WaterManager willoperate more often as it tries tomaintain the optimum waterquality in the cooler. Thismaximises the cooling effectand life of the cooling pads.The remote control has aunique feature attached to theWaterManager that allows youto specify either high or lowsalinity settings. The low salinitysetting is used in specificcircumstances only. Werecommend talking with yourdealer before adjusting thissetting.The high salinity setting isdesigned to operate the coolerat a maximum safe salinitylevel to maintain a normalworking life. It also results in aminimum usage of water .NOTE: High salinity outletwater should not be used onsalt sensitive grass or plants. Ithas a high salt content.The current WaterManagersetting is displayed by holdingdown the button andpressing the button. Thesetting can be changed byholding down the buttonand pressing either theor button for HI and LOrespectively.The factory defaultWaterManager setting is HI.For areas operating with borewater, DIP switch F should beswitched to off (see page 10).This will disable the salinitymeasuring circuit and simplydrain water from the tank every65 minutes of operation.MANUALCOOLFANSPEEDECONOMYILL1111-AMANUALCOOLPMFANSPEEDECONOMYILL1110-Athermostat controlremote®®®®®®®®®®
BATTERIESThe remote control requires 3AAA batteries. The use of goodquality alkaline batteries isrecommended. Under normalconditions a set of batteries willoperate for 12 months. Werecommend that you replacethe batteries before eachseason.When the batteries are gettinglow on power, BATTERY LOWis displayed on the screen (thecooler may also switch off whilethe display remains ON). Thisindicates that the batterieshave only a small amount of liferemaining.To change the batteries removethe cover from the back of theremote control. Pull out the oldbatteries and replace them allwith the new ones. Do not mixnew batteries with old batteries.The remote control has 2 mins.of back-up power to retain itsmemory while the batteries arebeing changed. If this time isexceeded, turn the power off tothe cooler and wait until thescreen goes blank. Restore thepower and fit the batterieswithin 4 minutes.Do not userechargeable batteries as theirvoltage rating is too low for theremote control.10DIP SWITCHESThere are 2 rows of DIPswitches located under thebattery cover on the remotecontrol.Definition of DIP switchpositions (first 6 in bottom rowonly) are as follows:(A)...... Reserved for later use.(B)...... OFF, 24 hour clock.ON, 12 hour clock.(C)...... OFF, 1HP motor.ON, 1/2HP motor.(D)...... OFF, no pre-cool.ON, pre-cool.(E)...... OFF, drains 3 days afterpower off.ON, drains 3 hours afterpower off.(F)......

Your cooler is fitted with one oftwo water managementsystems designed to control thewater salinity and optimise thelife of the pads in your cooler.BLEED SYSTEMDRAIN VALVEIf fitted, the bleed system,pictured on page 16, willconstantly drain small amountsof water during the operation ofthe cooler. This allows freshwater to be added diluting anyminerals and salts accumulated.The bleed rate for your coolerwill depend on local operatingconditions and will be set by theinstaller.If your cooler has been installedwith a drain valve it isaccompanied by theWaterManager salinity probes.When the tank’s water salinitylevel reaches a preset level theWaterManager will open thedrain valve and release about 6to 8 litres. Fresh water will thenbe added diluting any mineralsor salts accumulated. TheWater Manager will continueto monitor and drain water asrequired.Alternatively, the cooler can beset to drain 6 to 8 litres of waterat a preset period of pump15& drain valvebleed funneloperating time. This can be setby changing the salinity controlmethod selector if using thewall control, or DIP switch F ifusing the remote control.NOTE: When the cooler’s tankis empty and the cooler isturned on again, the fanoperation will be delayed as thetank is refilled and the pads aresaturated.If the power in your home goesoff for less than 5 seconds thecooler will retain its currentsettings. That is, it will stop forthe time the power is off butresume operation when thepower comes back on again.If the power goes off for morethan 5 seconds the cooler willautomatically turn itself off. Thatis, once the power comes backon the cooler will not resumeoperation. You will have to turnthe cooler back on using thewall control or remote control.POWER OUTAGES®®®®
