3Device description
Depending on the model chosen, your air/water
heat exchanger may vary in appearance from the
illustrations contained in these instructions.
However, the functions are identical in principle.
3.1.1 How it works
The air/water heat exchanger comprises of the following main components (cf. fig. 2): Heat exchanger
package (1), fan (2), magnetic valve (3), temperature
control (4) and non-return valve (5).
Fig. 2:Air/water heat exchanger
The heat loss of the enclosure is dissipated in
a membrane heat exchanger to the water coolant.
A fan (2) blows the internal enclosure air over the
heat exchanger (1); except for the inlet and outlet
water and the condensed water discharge, the unit
is closed to the environment. The magnetic valve (3)
controls the cooling output by changing the water
flow volume depending on the required setpoint
temperature and the water inlet temperature.

11Dispatch bag
Rittal air/water heat exchangers are fitted with a
controller for setting the functions of the heat exchanger. Depending on the design, this is either
a Basic controller or an e-Comfort controller (display
plus extended functions, see chapter “6 Operation”,
page
13
).
3.1.3 Bus mode (e-Comfort controller only)
The serial unit interface X2 allows you to create a bus
connection with up to ten air/water heat exchangers
using the master/slave cable (shielded, four-wire
cable, Model No. 3124.100). This allows you to
implement the following functions:
3.1 Functional description
Air/water heat exchangers are designed and built to
dissipate heat from enclosures by cooling the air inside the enclosure and so protect the temperaturesensitive components. Air/water heat exchangers
are particularly appropriate for the temperature
range of up to +70°C where comparable units, such
as air/air heat exchangers, enclosure cooling units or
fan-and-filter units, cannot be used for system reasons to effectively and economically dissipate heat
loss. The air/water heat exchanger may be externally
– Parallel unit control
(the air/water heat exchangers in the network
can be switched on and off simultaneously)
– Parallel door status message (“door open”)
– Parallel collective fault message
Data is exchanged via the master-slave connection.
During commissioning, assign an address to each
unit that also includes the identifier “master” or
“slave”.
(See also chapter “6.2.9 Setting the master-slave
identifier”, page 21).
and internally mounted on all enclosure outer walls.
whether an AC or EC fan is used), the fan is
equipped with thermal winding protection.
– The device has floating contacts on the connection
terminal (terminals 3 – 5), which may be used to
retrieve system messages from the device, e.g. via
PLC (1 x change-over contact Basic controller,
2 x normally open contacts e-Comfort controller).
– Air/water heat exchangers with e-Comfort control-
ler possess a leakage sensor and a condensate
warning.
3.1.5 Condensation
At high levels of humidity and low cooling water temperatures inside the enclosure, condensation may
form on the heat exchanger.
Any condensation that forms on the heat exchanger
(with high humidity and low water temperatures)
is routed to the bottom and out of the unit via a drain
opening in the heat exchanger tray. For this purpose,
a hose must be connected to the condensate nozzle
(see “4.4 Connecting the condensate discharge”,
page 9). The condensate must be able to run off
freely. The hose used for draining off condensate
must be laid free from kinks and checked for correct
drainage.
Air/water heat exchangers with e-Comfort controller
possess a leakage sensor and a condensate
warning.
Condensate hoses are available as accessories
(refer also to Accessories in the Rittal Catalogue).
3.1.6 Leak detection
(e-Comfort controller only)
If a leakage or pipe breakage occurs in the water
circuit of the air/water heat exchanger, a magnetic
valve immediately stops the cooling water supply,
the floating change-over contact is activated and the
fan switched off.
3.1.7 Door limit switch
(e-Comfort controller only)
The air/water heat exchanger may be operated with
a door limit switch connected. The door limit switch
is not included with the supply (available as an
accessory, Model No. 4127.010).
The door limit switch function causes the fan and the
magnetic valve in the air/water heat exchanger to be
switched off after approximately 15 seconds when
the enclosure door is opened (contacts 1 and 2
closed). This prevents the formation of condensation
inside the enclosure while the enclosure door is
open.
The fan will start up after about 15 seconds on
closure of the door. The connection is made at terminals 1 and 2. The extra-low voltage is supplied
by the internal power pack; the current is approx.
30 mA DC.
Note:
The door limit switches must only be
connected free from potential.
No external voltages!
The electrical signals at the interface
are of an extra-low voltage
(not extra-low safety voltages to EN 60 335).
An additional interface card may be connected to
the 9-pole SUB-D connector X3 in order to incorporate the air/water heat exchanger into higher-level
monitoring systems (available as an accessory,
interface card Model No. 3124.200).
3.2 Proper use
Rittal air/water heat exchangers were developed and
designed in accordance with the state of the art and
the recognised rules governing technical safety.
Nevertheless, if used improperly, they may pose a
threat to life and limb or cause damage to property.
The unit is only intended for cooling enclosures.
Any other use is deemed improper. The manufacturer will not be liable for any damages caused as
a result of improper use, or for incorrect assembly,
installation or use. All risk is borne solely by the user.
Proper usage also includes the observation of all
valid documents and compliance with the inspection
and servicing conditions.
3.3 Scope of supply
The unit is supplied in a packaging unit in a fully
assembled state. Please check the scope of supply
for completeness.

return (see “4.5 Connecting the water connection”,
page 9).
– The mains connection data as stated on the rating
plate of the unit must be guaranteed.
– For ease of servicing, appropriate access to the
device must be guaranteed.
4.2 Assembly instructions
4.2.1 General
–
Check the packaging carefully for signs of damage.
Any packaging damage may be the cause of a
subsequent functional failure.
– The enclosure must be sealed on all sides (IP 54).
Increased condensation will occur if the enclosure is
not airtight.
– The air inlet and outlet must not be obstructed on the
inside of the enclosure.
4.2.2 Layout of the components in the enclosure
Fig. 3:Never direct the cold airflow at active components
Exercise particular caution with the airflow from the
blowers of built-in electronic components (see fig. 3).
Note:
The air/water heat exchangers should
never be fitted directly behind the mounting
plate. If it is not possible to install the unit
any other way, appropriate air baffle plates
should be used, and air inlet and outlet
openings should be provided in the mounting plate.
It is important to ensure even air circulation
inside the enclosure. Under no circumstances should air inlet and outlet openings
be obstructed, otherwise the cooling performance of the unit will be reduced. Ensure
a suitable distance from electronic components and other installed enclosures
so that the required air circulation is not
obstructed and prevented.
Caution! Risk of condensation!
When arranging the components inside
the enclosure, please ensure that the cold
airflow from the air/water heat exchanger
is not directed at active components.
Please also ensure that the cold airflow is
not directed at the warm exhaust airflow
from active components such as inverters.
This may lead to an air short-circuit and
therefore prevent adequate climate control, or may even cause the air/water heat
exchanger’s internal safety devices to
cease cooling operation.
The air/water heat exchanger can be mounted on the
outer walls or the door of the enclosure.
For this purpose, the appropriate enclosure panel
or door must be cut out using the supplied drilling
template.
4.3.1 Preparing the mounting cut-out
Stick the supplied drilling template onto the side
panel or door of the enclosure using adhesive
tape. The heat exchanger is suitable for both external and internal mounting.
There are dimensioning lines on the drilling template
to suit the installation type for your air/water heat
exchanger.
Risk of injury!
Carefully deburr all cut-outs to prevent
injuries caused by sharp edges.
Make the cut-outs including the line width as per
the drilling template. Deburr the cut-outs.
Note:
In order to achieve a permanent seal
between the air/water heat exchanger and
the enclosure, the mounting surface should
be reinforced or supported if necessary.

Note:
The water circuit should be protected
from ingress of dirt or excess pressure
(maximum permitted operating pressure
10 bar)!
Note:
Observe the flow direction
and check for leaks!
The following criteria for the cooling water must be
observed:
– Water with high gypsum content is unsuitable for
cooling purposes because it has a tendency to
form boiler scale that is particularly difficult to
remove.
– The cooling water should be free from iron and
manganese, because otherwise deposits may
occur that accumulate in the pipes and block
them.
– At best, organic substances should only be
present in small quantities, because otherwise
sludge deposits and microbiological contamination may occur.
4.5.2 Preparation and maintenance of the water
in recooling systems
Depending on the type of installation to be cooled,
certain requirements are placed on the cooling water
with respect to purity. According to the level of contamination and the size and design of the recooling
systems, a suitable process is used to prepare and/
or maintain the water.
The most common types of contamination and most
frequently used techniques to eliminate them in
industrial cooling are:
Contamination

Procedure
Note:
The units do not have any separate
ventilation.
For pressure-sealed systems, install the
appropriate ventilation equipment on the
water side.
4.5.1 Notes on water quality
To ensure the reliable operation of the abovementioned units, the VBG guidelines for cooling
water must be observed (VGB-R 455 P).
The cooling water must not contain any limescale
deposits; in other words, it should have a low level of
hardness, in particular, a low level of carbonate
hardness. For recooling within the plant, the carbonate hardness should not be too high. On the other
hand, the water should not be so soft that it attacks
the materials. When recooling the cooling water, the
salt content should not be allowed to increase excessively due to the evaporation of large quantities of
water, since electrical conductivity increases as the
concentration of dissolved substances rises, and the
water thereby becomes more corrosive.
Always add the appropriate volume of fresh water.
Always remove part of the enriched water.

When performing the electrical installation, it is important to observe all valid national and regional regulations as well as the provisions of the responsible
power supply company. Electrical installation must
only be carried out by a qualified electrician who
is responsible for compliance with the existing
standards and regulations.
4.6.1 Connection data
– The connected voltage and frequency must cor-
respond to the values stated on the rating plate.
– The air/water heat exchanger must be connected
to the mains via an all-pin isolating device which
ensures at least 3 mm contact opening when
switched off.
– No additional temperature control may be con-
nected upstream of the unit at the supply end.
– Install the pre-fuse cited on the rating plate
(miniature circuit-breaker or gG/(gL) fuse) to
protect the cable and equipment from shortcircuits.
– The mains connection must ensure low-noise
potential equalisation.
4.6.4 Potential equalisation
Rittal recommends connecting a conductor with
a nominal cross-section of at least 6 mm
potential equalisation connection point on the air/
water heat exchanger and incorporating it into the
existing potential equalisation system.
According to the standard, the PE conductor in
the mains connection cable is not classified as an
equipotential bonding conductor.
4.6.5 Installing the power supply
Complete the electrical installation in accordance
with the wiring plan to be found on the rear of the
air/water heat exchanger.
For devices 3363.XXX and 3364.XXX in special
voltage variants, an external transformer is required (see also Rittal system accessories).
To be able to evaluate the system messages of the
air/water heat exchanger via the system message
relay, a corresponding low-voltage cable must be
connected additionally on terminals 3 – 5.

to the
EN
4.6.2 Overvoltage protection
and supply line load
– The unit does not have its own overvoltage protec-
tion. Measures must be taken by the operator at
the supply end to ensure effective lightning and
overvoltage protection. The mains voltage must
not exceed a tolerance of ±10%.
– The fans in single-phase units are intrinsically safe
(thermal winding protection). The same also
applies to all transformer versions and to specialvoltage units which are likewise equipped with
a transformer.
4.6.3 Door limit switch
(e-Comfort controller only)
– Each door limit switch must only be assigned to
one air/water heat exchanger.
– Several door limit switches may be connected
in parallel and operated on one air/water heat
exchanger.
– The minimum cross-section of the connection
cable is 0.3 mm
We recommend the use of a shielded cable.
– The line resistance to the door limit switch must
not exceed a maximum of 50 1.
– The door limit switch only supports a floating
connection; no external voltages.
– The contact of the door limit switch must be closed
when the door is open.
The safety extra-low voltage for the door limit switch
is provided by the internal power pack: current
approx. 30 mA DC.
Connect the door limit switch to terminals 1 and
2 of the connector.
The door limit switch is available as an accessory
complete, switch on the power supply to the
air/water heat exchanger.
The air/water heat exchanger starts running:
– with Basic controller: The enclosure internal
temperature is displayed.
– with e-Comfort controller: The software version
of the controller first appears for approx. 2 sec.,
then the enclosure internal temperature appears in
the 7-segment display.
You can now make your individual settings on the
unit, e.g. set the temperature or (with e-Comfort
controller only) assign the network identifier, etc.
(refer to the chapter “6 Operation”, page 13).
Note on limiting the volumetric flow
From a volumetric flow of > 400 l/h, no
significant increase in cooling output is
achieved. Appropriate measures must be
taken to regulate the flow rate, e.g. balancing valves (Model No. 3301.930/.940).
The built-in Basic controller ensures automatic
normal shut-down operation of the air/water heat
exchanger by the value of the fixed preset switching
difference of 5 K.
6.1.3 General programming information
Using buttons H2, H3 and H4 (fig. 19) you can
change 3 parameters within the preset ranges
(min. value, max. value). Tables 6 and 7 on page 14
show the parameters which can be altered.
6.1.4 Operation of the Basic controller
The display terminal “H1” consists of a 3-position
7-segment display which indicates the temperature
in °C as well as any system messages. The current
enclosure internal temperature is usually displayed
permanently. In the event of a system message, this
will alternate with the internal temperature display.
Note:
With the Basic controller, the temperature is
preset at the factory to +35°C. In order to
save energy, do not set the temperature
lower than that actually necessary.

The e-Comfort controller is equipped with a test
function, whereby the air/water heat exchanger
commences cooling operation independently of the
set temperature or door limit switch function.
Simultaneously press buttons 1 and 2 (fig. 21)
for at least 5 seconds.
The air/water heat exchanger starts running.
After approximately 5 minutes or upon reaching
15°C, test mode will end. The unit switches off and
changes to normal operation.
6.2.3 General programming information
Using buttons 1, 2 and 3 (fig. 21) you can change
the parameters within the preset ranges (min. value,
max. value).
Tables 8 and 9 show the parameters which can be
altered. fig. 25 on page 20 shows which buttons
must be pressed.
Note on switching hysteresis:
With a low hysteresis and short switching
cycles, there is a risk that cooling may
not be adequate or that only partial sections
of the enclosure are cooled.
Note on temperature settings:
With the e-Comfort controller, the temperature is preset at the factory to +35°C.
In order to save energy, do not set the
temperature lower than that actually
necessary.
The air/water heat exchanger operates automatically, i.e. after switching on the power supply, the
fan (see fig. 2, page 4) will run continuously and
permanently circulate the internal enclosure air.
The fan and the magnetic valve are controlled by

the e-Comfort controller.
The e-Comfort controller has a 7-segment display
(fig. 21, no. 4). After switching on the power supply,
the current software version initially appears on this
display for approx. 2 seconds. In regular operation,
the display shows both the temperature (in degrees
Celsius or Fahrenheit – users may switch between
the two) and any error messages.
While in programming mode, if you do not press any
buttons for approx. 30 sec., the display will first flash,
then the controller will switch back to normal display
mode. The “Esc” display indicates that any changes
made have not been saved.
Press the programming buttons ▲ (°C) or ▼ (°F)
to switch back and forth between the editable
parameters (see tables 5 and 6).
Press button 2 (“set”) to select the displayed
parameter for editing.
The current value of this parameter is displayed.
Press one of the programming buttons ▲ (°C)
or
▼ (°F).
The “Cod” display will appear. In order to be able to
change a value, you must enter the authorisation
code “22”.
Keep the programming button ▲ (°C) held down
until “22” appears.
Press button 2 (“set”) to confirm the code.
You can now alter the parameter within the preset
limits.
Press one of the programming buttons ▲ (°C)
or
▼ (°F) until the required value appears.
Press button 2 (“set”) to confirm the change.
You can now alter other parameters in the same way.
There is no need to re-enter the authorisation code
“22”.
To exit programming mode, press button 2 (“set”)
again for approximately 5 seconds.
“Acc”will appear in the display to indicate that
the changes have been saved. The display then
switches back to regular operation (enclosure internal temperature).
You can also program the e-Comfort controller
using a diagnosis software package (Model No.
3159.100), the supply of which also includes
a connection cable to the PC. The cable connector
on the rear of the e-Comfort controller display serves
as aninterface.
6.2.4 Eco-mode
All Rittal TopTherm heat exchangers with e-Comfort
controller from firmware 3.2 have the energy-saving
eco-mode, which is activated in the delivered state.
The eco-mode is used to save energy in the heat
exchanger if there is no thermal load, or there is a low
thermal load in the enclosure (e.g. standby operation, no production or weekend). During this process
the heat exchanger fan in the internal circuit is
switched off as appropriate if the actual enclosure
internal temperature drops to 10 K below the setpoint
temperature set. Also to reliably measure the internal temperature during this process, the fan starts
cyclically for 30 sec. every 10 minutes (see fig. 21).
If the internal temperature reaches the range 5 K
below the setpoint set again, the fan switches back
to continuous operation. If required, the eco-mode
can be deactivated via the control display. For this
purpose switch the parameter from 1 to 0 in the
programming level (see tab. 8, page 18). The fan
then runs continuously.

6.2.6 Bus connection
(only when interconnecting several units
with an e-Comfort controller)
When using several air/water heat exchangers,
the serial unit interface can be used to connect up
to ten air/water heat exchangers with the bus cable
(Model No. 3124.100).
Note:
The electrical signals at the X2 interface are
of an extra-low voltage (not extra-low safety
voltages in accordance with EN 60 335-1).
When interconnecting, please note the following:
– De-energise the air/water heat exchangers to
be connected.
– Ensure proper electrical insulation.
– Make sure the cables are not laid in parallel to
power lines.
– Make sure that the lines are short.
System messages are shown on the display screen
of the e-Comfort controller via the displays A01 to

6.2.9 Setting the master-slave identifier
When several air/water heat exchangers are connected together (maximum 10), one of the air/water
heat exchangers must be defined as the “master”
and the others as “slaves”. For this purpose, assign
a corresponding identifier (address) to each air/
water heat exchanger which will enable the air/water
heat exchanger to be identified in the network.
If one of the slave units reaches the set temperature
or if the door limit switch function is activated, the
affected slave unit will report to the master unit,
which then deactivates all the other air/water heat
The definition NO refers to the de-energised state.
exchangers.
As soon as power is applied to the air/water heat
exchanger, both system message relays (relay 1
and 2) energise.
This is the normal operating state of the air/water
heat exchanger.
As soon as a system message occurs or the power
supply is interrupted, the corresponding relay will
drop out and open the contact.
Notes:
– Only one unit may be configured as
master, and its identifier must match
the number of connected slave units.
– The slave units must have different
identifiers.
– The identifiers must be numbered in
ascending order without any gaps.

7 Inspection and maintenance
Risk of electric shock!
The unit is live. Switch off the power
supply before opening, and take suitable
precautions against it being accidentally
switched on again.
7.1 General
The air/water heat exchanger is largely maintenance
free. The water circuit is checked at the factory for
leaks and subjected to a function trial run.
The installed maintenance-free fan is mounted on ball
bearings, protected against moisture and dust, and
fitted with a temperature monitor. The life expectancy
is at least 30,000 operating hours. If dirt is present in
the cooling water, a filter must be fitted.
Maintenance interval: 2,000 operating hours.
Caution!
Risk of fire!
Never use flammable liquids for cleaning.
Sequence of maintenance measures:
– Check the level of dirt.
– Activate test mode; cooling function OK?
– Check the noise generation of the fan.

8Emptying, storage and disposal
Caution! Risk of damage!
The air/water heat exchanger
must not be subjected to temperatures
above +70°C during storage.
During storage, the air/water heat exchanger must
stand upright.
Disposal can be performed at the Rittal plant.
Please contact us for advice.
Emptying (for units with Basic controller only):
During storage and transportation below freezing
point, the air/water heat exchanger should be
drained completely in the water supply direction
using compressed air. This requires that the magnetic valve is opened.
For the e-Comfort controller, this is achieved by
simultaneously pressing the H2 (°C key) and H4
(/set key) keys for 5 seconds. The magnetic valve
is then opened for approximately 5 minutes.
