Remote control 

 

NOTE 

Simatek fits the Simatek GFC 32 unit with a connection on terminals Remote [26] and Common 

[37]. 

If you wish to operate Simatek GFC 32 with a remote switch, read instructions below.  

If you do not wish to take advantage of this opportunity, do not remove the connection. 

 

 

 

To activate Remote: 

1.

 

Unscrew and remove the terminals cover [20]. 

2.

 

Remove the connection from terminals Remote [26] and Common [37]. 

3.

 

Bring an external no-load and normally open (NO) contact to Remote [26] and Common [37] terminals from an 

external device (e.g. contact from DP monitor). 

4.

 

Replace and screw the terminals cover tight [20]. 

5.

 

Close the contacts on the Remote [26] and Common [37] terminals in order to enable the Remote function. 

6.

 

Should you open the contact on Remote [26] and Common [37] the Simatek GFC 32 will stop working and LED 

Remote [35] and LED Pause [12] will be off. Close the contact in order to start the cleaning cycle again from 

the position where it stopped.  

 

 

 

8.

 

Shut down cleaning 

 

We suggest operating one or more cycles of Shut down cleaning at the end of each working session in order to remove 

the residual dust of the filter. Shut down cleaning is started each time the fan is switched off. 

 

In order to activate Shut down cleaning: 

1.

 

Select Pause Time and number of cycles of Shut down cleaning (see paragraph 6). 

2.

 

Unscrew and remove the terminals cover [20]. 

3.

 

Bring an external no-load and normally closed (NC) contact to terminals Fan [36] and Common [37] from the 

fan switch. 

4.

 

Replace the terminals cover [20] and tighten the screws. 

5.

 

Shut down cleaning starts as soon as the Fan is switched off, contact on terminals Fan [36] and Common is 

closed, and LED Shut down [33] flashes. 

 

 

NOTE: Should you have selected 0 at step 4 of paragraph 6.2, Simatek GFC 32 will stop working as soon as the 

contact on terminals Fan [36] and Common [37] is closed (LED Shut down [33] is on). 

6.

 

Once Shut down cleaning is completed, LED Shut down [33] will remain on. Switch the fan on in order to start 

cleaning cycle again. The cleaning cycle starts from the first valve. 

 

 

 

9.

 

Low pressure 

 

You can connect a pressure gauge contact to terminals Low Pressure [29]. When the contact is closed the unit will stop 

working. 

 

To activate Low Pressure: 

1.

 

Unscrew and remove the terminals cover [20]. 

2.

 

Connect an external pressure gauge contact to Low Pressure [29]. 

3.

 

Replace the terminals cover [20] and fasten the screws. 

4.

 

Set the pressure gauge at the minimum desired pressure value, when the pressure is lower the contact closes 

and the unit will stop working.
