is familiar with the dangers when working on the unit.
The present service manual includes the following information:
– Description of the settings in the engineering level of the Nordmann AT4
D control.
– Information on operational malfunctions
– Information on the control matrix of the steam bath control
– Information on the water management
– Block diagrams of the control electronics

2 Settings in the engineering level
2.1 Launching the Engineering level
Select the engineering settings menu:
Path: Main menu > User > Password entry: 1055 > Engineering
Press the <>and < > keys in order to select the individual settings in the engineering level. Detailed
information on the different settings are found in the following chapters.
2.2 Setting the intensity levels for the fragrance pumps
Select “Fragrance” in the engineering menu, then press the <Set> key. Select the intensity level (levels
1 to 5) whose values you would like to modify, then press the <Set> key.
Set the desired interval time in minutes and the pulse duration in seconds for the selected intensity level.
Setting range interval time: 2...20 minutes
Setting range pulse duration: 2...10 seconds
Factory setting: Level 1 = interval time: 10 minutes, pulse duration: 2 seconds
Level 2 = interval time: 8 minutes, pulse duration: 3 seconds
Level 3 = interval time: 6 minutes, pulse duration: 3 seconds
Level 4 = interval time: 4 minutes, pulse duration: 4 seconds
Level 5 = interval time: 3 minutes, pulse duration: 5 seconds
Note: the fragrance pump is active only, if the main contactor of the steam generator is activated and
the system is in steam bath operation.

2.3 Setting the replacement interval time for the steam cylinder
Select “Max.op.hr SC” in the engineering menu, then press the <Set> key.
In the upcoming modication dialogue set the desired interval time for the replacement of the steam
cylinder in hours (max. operating hours). The interval time to be set depends on the water quality on site.
Note: First priority for the determination of the maximum operating hours of the steam cylinder has
always the maximum level counts via the level sensor.
Factory setting: 5000 h
Setting range: 100...8000 h
2.4 Activating/deactivating the drain cooling
Select “Drain Cool” in the engineering menu, then press the <Set> key.
In the upcoming modication dialogue activate (On) or deactivate (Off) the drain cooling function. With
activated drain cooling the inlet valve opens during the drain cycle, thus reducing the drain water tem-
perature.
Factory setting: On
Options: On (Inlet valve opens during drain cycle)
Off (Inlet valve remains closed during drain cycle)
2.5 Setting GFCI operation
Select “GFCI” in the engineering menu, then press the <Set> key.
In the upcoming modication dialogue select whether or not the Nordmann AT4 D is connected to a
fault current relay protected mains supply or whether the Nordmann AT4 D is operated on a vessel with
special requirements concerning fault current measurement.
Factory setting: On
Options: On (mains supply with fault current relay protection, main contactor is switched
off during drain cycle)
Off (mains supply without fault current relay protection, main contactor remains
activated during drain cycle)
Ship (mains supply with special requirements concerning fault current measure-
ment, main contactor is switched off during lling and draining cycle)

Notes on the function “Ship”
The “Ship” function is used if the Nordmann AT4 D is installed on a vessel. On vessels fault currents are
monitored much more exactly than elsewhere, since these lead to an increased corrosion of the ship trunk.
Due to the fact that small fault currents can ow via the inlet line to earth/mass also during lling, the
main contactor is switched off also during lling cycle with the “Ship” function.
Since no current measurement is possible during lling with deactivated main contactor, the lling time
is controlled via the inlet factor.
Select “Ship” in the GFCI menu, then press the <Set> key.
In the upcoming modication dialogue set the desired inlet factor.
Factory setting: 1(Filling cycle 30 seconds)
Setting range: 0.5 (Filling cycle 10 seconds) up to 2.0 (Filling cycle 60 seconds)
Note: With inlet factor 1 the lling cycle takes 30 seconds then, the inlet valve is closed and the main
contactor is activated, in order to check the current rise. If the desired current value is not yet achieved
(110% of the nominal current), the main contactor is deactivated again, and another lling cycle of
30 seconds starts.
If the current is always too high after a lling cycle of 30 seconds (InletFactor 1), the lling time can be
reduced up to 15 seconds (=> inlet factor 0.5).
Or vice versa if it always takes 2 – 3 lling cycles to reach the desired current value, the lling time can
be increased up to 60 seconds (=> inlet factor 2).

2.6 Setting the heating current monitoring
Select “Overcurrent” in the engineering menu, then press the <Set> key.
In the upcoming modication dialogue you determine whether the current monitoring shall take place
with a xed (Fixed) or a floating over current threshold (Float).
Factory setting: Float
Setting range: Float (floating over current threshold) or Fixed (fixed over current threshold)
Notes on settings
For the heating current monitoring, there are two over current thresholds:
– The threshold for the excess current is set to 135% of the maximum nominal current (violet, narrow
dashed line in the following diagram). This threshold value is xed and leads always to a draining
of the cylinder and to an emergency shut-down (Error E25) when exceeded.
– The threshold for the over current is set to 125% of the maximum nominal current (W24/E24). If
this threshold value is exceeded the unit tries to reduce the current under 125 % by repetitive drain-
ings. If after 5 repetitive drainings the current value is still above the threshold value of 125 % the
unit goes on error (Error 24).
This threshold is xed based on the maximum nominal current if Fixed is selected (light blue, con-
tinuous line in the following diagram).
With the function Float the over current threshold (red, dash-dotted line in the following diagram)
can be attened. The function Float allows a faster reaction to changes of the control signal.

2.7 Setting the On/Off hysteresis
Select “Min.Request” in the engineering menu, then press the <Set> key.
In the upcoming modication dialogue you determine the minimum demand for switching the unit on
(rst value) and off (second value) (On/Off hysteresis).
Factory setting: 25/20%
Options: 25/20%
17/12%
Notes on settings
To ensure an optimal current measuring/regulation with electrode based steam generators the hysteresis
is set to 25 % (switch on) and 20 % (switch off).
However you can reduce the hysteresis to 17% (switch on) and 12% (switch off).
2.8 Setting the Stop Mode for bathing operation
With this function you can determine whether or not the <Stop> key is suppressed during bathing operation.
Select “Stop Mode” in the engineering menu, then press the <Set> key.
In the upcoming modication dialogue you determine whether the bathing time is automatically controlled
via the set bathing time (setting “Timer”) whilst the <Stop> key is suppressed or whether the bathing
time can be stopped at any time by pressing the <Stop> key (setting “Switch”).
Factory setting: Switch
Options: Switch (bathing time can be stopped at any time with the <Stop> key)
Timer (the bathing time is automatically controlled via the set bathing time, the
<Stop> key is suppressed)

2.9 Setting-up temperature sensor monitoring function
In order to detect a manipulation on the temperature sensor, the steam bath control features the function
“Instab.Func”. If this function is activated the temperature curve of the temperature sensor is monitored
during steam bath operation. If the temperature decreases by cooling the temperature sensor (e.g. by
the use of a cool rag) within a certain time “Time Range” by more than the set temperature value “Temp
Range”, the steam generator is blocked for a certain time “Lock Time”. If the blocking time has elapsed
the steam generator is enabled again.
Note: temperature monitoring is activate only during steam bath operation and if the door of the steam
bath cabin is closed.
Select “Instab.Temp” in the engineering menu, then press the <Set> key. Select “Instab.Func”, then press
the <Set> key. In the upcoming display activate the monitoring function (On), then press the <Set> key.
Now, determine the desired settings for the temperature sensor monitoring:
• “Temp Range”: Temperature range
Factory setting: 10 °C
Setting range: 1…30 °C
• “Time Range”: Time span for the temperature monitoring
Factory setting: 10 seconds
Setting range: 1…60 seconds
• “Lock Time”: Blocking time for steam production
Factory setting: 120 seconds
Setting range: 1…600 seconds
