2.3 Attention when replacing AK-CC 550 with AK-CC55!

Be aware when exchanging an AK-CC550 controller with a new AK-CC55 controller - new wiring principles!

AK-CC 550 AK-CC 55

• Pressure sensor has new connection – signal and ground are switched

• SPDT relays have a new wiring scheme – NO and NC terminals are switched (e.g. defrost heater on when should be oﬀ)

C NC NO

• Modbus has new connection scheme (A,B and screen)

2.4 AK-CC55 Case Controllers

2.5 AK-CC55 Accessories

AK-CC55 does not support two EEC coils connected to one AKV output. Pressure transmitter can be shared between AK-CC 550 and AK-CC55. DI2 defrost coordination can be wired between AK-CC 550 and AK-CC55.

EKA displays and cables can not be used for AK-CC55.
