Comfort air curtain for Daikin system On models CA2V and CA2Q: The air connection is connected to a Daikin direct expansion system. The air blown through the unit is heated by the cool- ing medium. The air curtain is controlled and operated partly by the Daikin system and partly by the Biddle system. The system has a number of limitations: • The unit is only suitable for use in Daikin direct expansion systems. • The unit is not suitable for cooling. • The Daikin system has to be active at all times. Other versions and intended usage. On request, versions can be supplied for other applications. en-6
en CA2 MANUAL INTRODUCTION Warning: w Applications other than those described above are not considered to be an intended use. Biddle assumes no responsibility for damage or injury resulting from applications other than the intended use. The intended use also implies observance of and compliance with the instructions in this manual. 1.3.2 Mode of operation The air curtain blows out a warm air stream straight down, thus achieving the following: • The exchange of air between two rooms due to tempera- ture differences (convection) is stopped. • The cold air entering across the floor due to draught is heated. Depending on the air curtain's setting, the unit can also blow unheated air. 1.3.3 About the automatic CHIPS control The CHIPS control matches the strength and heat of the air curtain to changing weather conditions. This reduces energy consumption and improves comfort through selection of the optimum setting under all circumstances. CHIPS stands for “Corrective Heat and Impulse Prediction System”. The operation of the air curtain is based on the outside tem- perature and the room temperature near the air curtain. 1.3.4 Type designation The table below provides an overview of available models of the Comfort Air Curtain and the corresponding type designa- tions.

Depending on the selected settings, the air curtain can also be controlled manually.In automatic mode, the unit oper- ates under CHIPS control. This control matches the strength and heat of the air curtain to changing weather conditions. This reduces energy consumption and improves comfort Manual version 7.0 (22-04-2013) en-41
en OPERATION COMFORT AIR CURTAIN through selection of the optimum setting under all circum- stances. CHIPS stands for “Corrective Heat and Impulse Pre- diction System”. The operation of the air curtain is based on the outside temperature and the room temperature near the air curtain. 3.4.1 Automatic or manual control The air curtain has an automatic and a manual mode. These can be selected by touching the uppermost part of the air cur- tain icon.When the unit is switched on, it is always in automa- tic mode. If you wish to operate the unit only in manual mode, switch off the automatic mode via menu > Settings > 1. Select modes. 3.4.2 Recommended setting of the air curtain To obtain the maximum separation effect and the greatest comfort possible with the least possible energy consumption, Biddle recommends use of the fully automatic CHIPS control. 3.5 Adjusting the strength of the air curtain 3.5.1 Adjusting the automatic strength control In automatic mode, the strength and temperature of the air stream are controlled automatically. Due to weather condi- tions, you might want to adjust the automatic setting. If you feel a cold draught along the floor, you can increase the auto- matic strength. Note: n The adjustment of the automatic strength is not always directly translated into a different fan speed. 3.5.2 Manual setting of the strength With the manual setting, you have 6 strengths to choose from. To achieve maximum climate separation with minimum energy consumption, Biddle recommends selecting the lowest strength at which no draught occurs. This setting may need to be changed during the day. en-42
en CA2 MANUAL OPERATION 3.6 Controlling the temperature You can set the temperature to a comfortable level. This is the temperature at the air curtain.With units connected to a Dai- kin system (CA2 V and CA2 Q), the temperature control is less accurate than with water or electric heating. 3.7 Faults The symbol ä indicates that there is a fault. The fault mes- sage is displayed alongside. • Touch this message for further information on the fault and for instructions as to how to react. Warning: w Some faults may cause damage or danger for persons if they are disregarded. If ä is displayed, follow the instructions as to how to react shown on the operating panel.

en OPERATION COMFORT AIR CURTAIN Unlocking Touch the screen for 5 seconds to unlock. Switching the heating on and off The heating of the air curtain can be switched on and off man- ually. This can be useful in summertime when no heating is necessary. Switching the heating off disables the room temperature con- trol. This function can be deactivated via setting 89 in the configu- ration menu. • Select Heating When the heating is switched off, the air stream is displayed in blue. The heating can also be switched off by the control itself: • by an external signal at the input of the unit, see menu > Configuration > 60. Function of input, setting Heating off; • when the outdoor temperatuur is higher than the setting of function 84. Heating off temperature. Filter Dirty filters reduce the effectiveness of the air curtain. It is therefore necessary to clean or replace the filters at regular intervals. The filter contamination is either measured with the optional filter sensor or calculated. With the optional filter sensor, the unit measures the filter contamination every 24 hours by running at the highest fan speed for 40 seconds. You can set the check time for this in the menu. Warning: w The default check time is 00:00 h (midnight). Be aware that objects can be put into motion by the airflow of the air curtain. This might set off an alarm system in the building at night time. The cleaning interval can be adjusted to match the actual con- tamination of the filters. Without filter sensor the service life of the filter is calculated in relation to the use of the air curtain. You can adjust this by setting the maximum service life of the filter. en-44
en CA2 MANUAL OPERATION When the filters are contaminated or when the maximum ser- vice life is reached, a message appears on the Home screen. You may clean the filter with, for instance, a vacuum cleaner. After some cleanings, however, the filter must be replaced. New filters are available from Biddle. Cleaning the display Using the touch screen may cause finger prints or smudges on the display. The display can be cleaned using a soft, damp cloth. Timer The b-touch control panel has a week timer. You can set two start and stop times for every day of the week. The unit is on between the start time and the stop time. The second start and stop times are optional.When the button ON/OFF is dis- played on the screen, the unit can also be switched ON or OFF manually. From the next switching moment the unit then follows the timer again.When the timer is switched on, the @ icon is displayed in the blue bar of the Home screen. 3.9 Preferences Preferences The menu Preferences allows you to make settings for the use of the control panel. Set language The control panel offers a choice of languages. Choose your preferred language from the list. Set date and time The date and time are necessary for the timer function and in order to track usage statistics of the unit. Let op: c A correct dateis also needed when there is no out- door or contact sensor connected to the unit. In this case the CHIPS control estimates the outdoor temperature based on the month of the year and cli- mate data for your country. Having a wrong date causes a less optimal working of the air curtain. The automatic summer time function switches the clock to summer or winter time according to the applicable European rules. If you do not use this function, you can switch to sum- mer time manually. The clock is then set one hour forward. Manual version 7.0 (22-04-2013) en-45
en OPERATION COMFORT AIR CURTAIN Temperature unit Choose between temperature display in degrees Celsius and degrees Fahrenheit. Display brightness Set the brightness of the display to your personal preferences or to the specific situation. Show tips The control panel can show tips about the usage of the unit. The display of these tips can be enabled or disabled. 3.10 Settings The menu Settings allows you to make setting which influence the day-to-day use of the unit. 1. Select modes The operating panel offers various operating modes. The func- tion Select modes allows you to choose which of these modes can be selected on the HOME screen. 5. Room temperature The default room temperature is the temperature setting at every start-up of the unit. This can be overruled manually. 6. Minimum air temperature Set the minimum difference between the room temperature and the discharge temperature. This difference can be increased for more comfort. A small dif- ference saves energy. 8. Night temperature The night temperature is used when the unit is off. When the room temperature drops below this setting, the unit will start working to keep the room on the night temperature. Warning: w Be aware that objects can be put into motion by the airflow of the air curtain. This might set off an alarm system in the building at night time. 9. Calibration An unfavourable position of the operating panel or using the temperature sensor in the air curtain can be the reason why the temperature displayed differs from the real temperature. Use this function to adjust the temperature reading. en-46
en CA2 MANUAL OPERATION 3.11 Configuration The menu Configuration allows you to make settings to adjust the operation of the unit to the room and the system. Usually, this menu is used only for installation, maintenance and ser- vice purposes. 50. Access control Access to the whole control panel or only to the menu can be protected with a four-digit PIN code. The default PIN code is 0000. 51. Indoor sensor Both the unit and the operating panel have a sensor which measures the indoor temperature. Choose one that the sys- tem is to use: • Select the sensor on the unit for automatic control. This is the standard setting. • Select the sensor on the control panel if you also wish to use the air curtain for heating the room. In this case com- fort may be reduced by draughts along the floor. 52. Display on/off button The unit can be switched on and off manually. It can also be switched on and off via the internal timer or via an external release signal at the input of the operating panel or of the unit. In this case you can disable the manual switching on and off. The on/off button is then not displayed on the Home screen. 53. Control panel input The control panel has one input signal interface. This can be used for an external of/offsignal or for an additional tempera- ture sensor. When the timer is in use, the on/off function of the input of the control panel is deactivated, irrespective of this setting. If an additional temperature sensor is connected, this takes over the function of the sensor in the control panel. Note: n Selecting “Temperature“ without actually connecting a sensor will lead to a fault message. 54. Strength with door closed Set the minimum fan speed when contact is made with the input. Use a door switch here to reduce the fan speed when the door is closed.This has an effect only when function 60. Function of input is set to Quick speed up or Slow speed up. Manual version 7.0 (22-04-2013) en-47
en OPERATION COMFORT AIR CURTAIN If this function is set to zero (fans off), it can occur that the fans start working with the doors closed. This is to maintain the room temperature. If you don’t want this: • decrease the set room temperature, or: • change this function to a value other than zero. 55. Boost function If there is a large difference between the desired and the actual room temperature, the fan speed can be increased to reach the desired temperature quicker. Use this function when the air curtain also is used for heating the room. If 61a/b. Function of output 1/2 is set to value Winter door setting, a contact on that output is also made when the actual difference is larger than this setting. 58. Maximum strength The maximum fan speed can be limited in order to limit the noise level. This function has an effect only in Automatic mode. Use of this function can reduce the comfort. 59. Sensor X82 The sensor connected to terminal X82 on the unit can act as either an outdoor sensor or as a pipe sensor on the supply pipe of the central heating system. This sensor is used in the automatic control of the air curtain. Pipe sensor The outdoor temperature is derived from the water tempera- ture. For this you need a pipe sensor on the supply pipe of the 6XSSO\WHPSHUDWXUH 7HPSHUDWXUH central heating system and a weather depended control of the central heating system. ZDWHU>&@ The outdoor temperature is based on the heating curve of the 7HPSHUDWXUH supplied water. This curve is defined by three points of out- door temperature and water temperature. 7HPSHUDWXUH The first point is for the high outdoor temperature, the last point for the low outdoor temperature. Make sure that the 2XWGRRUWHPSHUDWXUH>&@ limits of all temperatures correspond to the temperatures that can occur. As this is only an estimation, the working of the air curtain might be less optimal. en-48
