Evaporative Cooling Control (ECC-1)
Automatically controls sprinkler solenoids, water pumps, and fans for direct or indirect evaporative cooling systems
Phason's ECC-1 Evaporative Cooling Control monitors temperatures and efficiently and effectively controls evaporative cooling cycles according to your programmed settings.
Designed with versatility and usability in mind, the ECC-1 has two main modes of operation: 'Soaker Mode' for direct evaporative cooling or 'Mister/Fogger Mode' for indirect cooling. The ECC-1 has six relays, which can be programmed to control a combination of sprinkler solenoids, pumps, and/or single-speed fans.
With the ECC-1's active time settings, you can program sprinkling to occur only during a certain time of day. With an optional humidity sensor, you can program the ECC-1 to bypass the soaking or misting portion of the cycle when humidity levels are too high.
The LCD displays status and setting information and the four-button keypad allows you to easily scroll through information and program the control. The ECC-1's real-time clock and power-failure memory retention help save your settings and status during a power failure.
The ECC-1 is ideal for many applications, including dairy, swine, poultry, and greenhouse. All this from one powerful, efficient, and easy-to-use control!
