1 – GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

Aqua Ionic manages SIATA multi-way valves for the creation of water treatment devices.

The regenerative cycle, which is completely programmable, can be activated in either of the
following ways:

 after a programmable time during which the probe detects that the water is not good;
 immediately when the treatable volume is exhausted;
 manually, using the Manual Regen key;
 immediately by means of the Remote Start external signal.

Aqua Ionic is provided with an eeprom memory where the programming is stored, and of a buffer
battery allowing to keep the working parameters in the memory in the event of a supply voltage

failure.

Aqua Ionic, as well as all the other SIATA controllers, is compliant with the EEC Directives and is
built in the SIATA factory in Montespertoli, Florence (Italy) working with the Quality System
certified according to the following standard

ISO 9001 / UNI EN ISO 9001.

3 – MEANING OF LEDs AND KEYS

LED functionality (Tab. 1)

SET POINT
(yellow case)

It is on during the set point value setting.

SET POINT

(blue case)

It is on when the conductivity value surpasses the set point value.

ALARM (blue case)

SET POINT DELAY

(yellow case)

It goes on during programming when setting the set point intervention time.
During operation, it illuminates to indicate an alarm condition.

EXT. ALARM

It is on when the inhibition signal is present.

AUTO SET POINT

It is on when the regeneration must start because water is not good.

AUTO VOLUME

It is on when the regeneration must start because of exhausted volume.

MANUAL

It is on when the regeneration must not start automatically.

INT. ALARM

It is on when regeneration is not successful.

Key functionality (Tab. 2)

X 0.1

When pressed during operation, it changes the setting of the X 1 or X 10 probes.

When pressed at the end of the programming phase, it allows to access the

programming of the regeneration cycle phases.

PROGRAM

MODE

It allows to access the programming functions of the working parameters.

ADVANCE

When pressed during programming or time setting, it allows to increase the digit

blinking on the display.

When pressed during operation, it allows to display the residual volume.

SELECT

It allows to change the regeneration start mode.

MAN. REGEN

It allows to activate the regeneration manually.

RESET

During programming, it allows to quit without saving the parameter being

modified when the key is pressed.

During regeneration it ends it.

HIDDEN KEY

Placed below the 6 keys, in the middle between Advance and Volume/Clock, it

allows to start a test regeneration. When pressed during some programming

phases, it zeroes the digit blinking on the display.

4 – CODE MEANING

On the case rear panel a label as in Fig. 2 indicates:

AI7-02/05 the controller code
12705 the order number (which is the same as the lot number)
SN 110/98 the serial number with reference to the code

In particular, the controller code is composed as follows:

AI 7 – 02 / 05

Controller version, assigned by the Technical Office for
customizations (05 = standard).
Typology of the electric connections (02 = DIN sockets).
Number of drivers (7 = 7 drivers).
Family to which the controller belongs (AI = Aqua Ionic).

5 - GENERAL INFORMATION

Please find herewith below some instructions to be followed during the controller usage and
maintenance in order to ensure its long-term operativity.

5.1 – Packaging and storage

The package consists in a box with a product identification label.
The device must be stored in environments compliant with the following characteristics:

- temperature within +4°C e +40°C;

- relative humidity within 30 % and 95 %.

5.2 – Installation

The controller installation must be performed by qualified technical staff; the installation

procedures must be performed when the device is off power.
The device consists in an ABS case closed on front by a cover blocked with 4 screws. As an
optional, a transparent cover is available that can be used as a keyboard protection.
The controller is supplied by a 230 / 12 Vac transformer. Upon request, other types of transformer
are available (Es. 115 / 12 Vac – 60 Hz).
The right hand side of the case is opened where the DIN sockets are placed (Fig. 9).
