This article Which air conditioner for my wine cellar? first appeared on FRIAX Industrie.

The average humidity best suited for a wine cellar should be between 55 and 75%. More or less significant periodic variations can occur without affecting the bottles.
If the humidity in the cellar is systematically above 80%, first of all check the FSTY setting of the indoor unit’s ventilation (see commissioning manual).
This parameter is used to define the state of the fan when the cellar has reached its temperature and humidity points.
3 setting options:
-GV: factory setting, the fan remains at its nominal operating speed to ensure maximum circulation of the air in the cellar. Disadvantage, the water contained in the tray under the evaporator continues to humidify the air circulating in the device, which depending on the configuration of the cellar can increase the humidity too much.
-PV: The fan switches to low speed for devices equipped with multi-speed fans (EVA2, H2OA, EVG, EVI, MPCG, MPCA). In this case, the air is mixed with little impact on humidification.
-OFF: As soon as the temperature and humidity points are reached, the cellar ventilation stops. The first value on demand will restart the air conditioning or humidification system.

Solution :
Before any other operation, switch the ventilation to OFF if ever the humidity in the cellar is too high. It may take a few days to return to normal humidity depending on the case.
If, despite this, the humidity remains too high, check with a hygrometer that the value of the probe is correct. If this is not the case, calibrate the probe (See commissioning manual).
Check that the appliance’s condensates are properly evacuated outside and do not saturate the atmosphere of the cellar.
Check that no outside ventilation interferes with the operation of the air conditioning and does not add excess humidity.
Install a Winesupervisor 3 which will make it possible to check the stability of the temperature and humidity and to carry out technical analyzes on the operation of the cellar.

If, despite this, the humidity in the cellar remains too high, contact your installer or your distributor, who will contact Friax customer service.

After the border closures and the shutdown of many factories around the globe in 2020, producers are unable to keep up with the strong demand of 2021. The supply is not sufficient for the demand which has exploded these months, causing a significant increase in the price of raw materials, transport, risks of shortages and lengthened deadlines …

Despite a range Made in France, we are highly dependent on the supply of components whose prices are set by international markets. Our products are impacted by the unprecedented fluctuation and deregulation of short with a double-digit increases.

• Wash your hands several times a day with soap or a hydroalcoholic solution
• When you sneeze or cough, cover your mouth and nose with your sleeve or a disposable tissue
• Avoid handshake
• Wear a mask in the presence of other people
• Install your local contact tracing application to be notified in the event of contact with a patient diagnosed positive

3 – 3D Printing Reserve

We participated in the national effort to protect healthcare workers from the first lockdown!

In addition to our usual activity, we have decided to contribute to the protection of caregivers by joining the 3D PRINTING RESERVE.

Our 8 3D printers have been mobilized to help healthcare workers protect themselves from COVID19 with face shields. We produced and distributed the necessary material free of charge by responding to local or Reserve requests.

Two cases may occur:

1) The fault appears and none of the following actions make it disappear:
– Refreshment by validating OK
– Stop and start ON / OFF
– Power failure and power on

Check all probe connections to see if a wire is unplugged.
If the device does not start contact your installer to change the probe.

2) The fault appears randomly and disappears during a refresh or during one of the operations (ON / OFF, Power failure, Reset …)

On the splits system, the probe is connected via an RJ45 cable. It is important that this cable is the one supplied (length 5m), that it is not wound on itself and does not pass near the power cables.
You have the option to disassemble the probe to replace it elsewhere in the wine cellar.

Still in default?
So, the hypothesis of a false contact is most likely meticulously check by manipulating all the connections the probe / card path.
If you have not found a solution to your problem, contact FRIAX Customer Service.
