Controller for appliance control

AK-CC 550B

ADAP-KOOL® Refrigeration control systems

Manua l

Introduction

Application

Complete refrigeration appliance control with great ﬂexibility to adapt to all types of refrigeration appliances and cold storage rooms.

Advantages

• Energy optimisation of the whole refrigeration appliance

• One controller for several diﬀerent refrigeration appliances

• Integrated display at the front of the controller

• Quick set-up with predeﬁned settings

• Built-in data communication

• Built-in clock function with power reserve

Principle

The temperature in the appliance is registered by one or two temperature sensors which are located in the air ﬂow before the evaporator (S3) or after the evaporator (S4) respectively. A setting for thermostat, alarm thermostat and display reading determines the inﬂuence the two sensor values should have for each individual function. In addition product sensor S6, which can be optionally placed in the appliance, can be used to register the temperature near the required product in a certain place within the appliance. The temperature of the evaporator is registered with the S5 sensor which can be used as a defrosting sensor. In addition to the outlet to the electronic injection valve of the type AKV, the controller has 5 relay outputs which are deﬁned by the use selected – the individual usage options are described in detail on page 12.

Applications

Here is an overview of the controller’s usage options. A setting will conﬁgure input and outputs so that the controller’s operation interface is directed at the selected application. The current settings for the respective uses can be found on page

28.

Application 1-8

These uses are applied to standard appliances or cold storage rooms with one valve, one evaporator and one refrigeration section. The sensors are used according to standard principles. The output functions change depending on the selected application.

Application 9

This use is for refrigeration appliances with one valve, two evaporators and two refrigeration sections, each with its own temperature measurement. There are shared alarm limits but individual alarm delays for each cooling section. Display for each section. Product sensor S6 cannot be used.

Application 10

This use is for refrigeration appliances with one valve, one evaporator and two refrigeration sections. There are separate alarm limits and alarm delays for each cooling section. Display for each section.

Operation

Liquid injection

Liquid injection in the evaporator is controlled by an electronic injection valve of the type AKV. The valve functions as both expansion valve and solenoid valve. The valve opens and closes using signals from the controller. The function contains an adaptive algorithm which independently adjusts the valve’s opening so that the evaporator constantly supplies optimum refrigeration.

Superheat is measured via

• Pressure sensor P0 and temperature sensor S2 For this use a correct measurement of superheat is achieved under all conditions which ensures a very robust and precise control. The signal from one pressure transmitter can be used by several controllers, but only if there is no signiﬁcant pressure diﬀerence between the evaporators in question.

There are two parallel settings for superheat:

1. Dry expansion, which does not allow liquid ﬂow (normal state)

2. Flooded evaporator, which allows liquid ﬂow. This type of

control requires that the controller receives an on/oﬀ signal from (for example) a tank in the suction line. A level switch in the tank will register when the high limit is exceeded. When this happens, the controller will switch to dry expansion, and then back to ﬂooded when the liquid level has dropped. The function is deﬁned in setting o02, o37 or o84.

Warning

Accidental actuation may allow liquid throughput to the compressor. It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that signal loss to the controller will not result in liquid throughput to the compressor.

Danfoss accepts no responsibility for damage resulting from inadequate installation.

Temperature control

The actual temperature control can take place in two ways: as an ordinary ON/OFF regulation with a diﬀerential, or as a modulating control there the temperature variation will not be nearly as great as in ON/OFF control. There is however a limit to the use of a modulating control as it can only be used in central plant. In a decentralised plant the thermostat function with ON/OFF control should be selected. In a central plant the thermostat function may either be selected for ON/OFF control or modulating control.

Temperature monitoring

Just as is possible for the thermostat, the alarm monitoring can be set with a weighting between S3 and S4 so that you can decide how much the two sensor values should inﬂuence the alarm monitoring. Minimum and maximum limits can be set for alarm temperature and time delays. A longer time delay can be set for high temperature alarms. This delay is active after defrosting, appliance cleaning, appliance shutdown and start-up.

Thermostat bands

Thermostat bands can be used beneﬁcially for appliances where diﬀerent product types are stored which require diﬀerent temperature conditions. It is possible to change between the two diﬀerent thermostat bands via a contact signal on a digital input. Separate thermostat and alarm limits can be set for each thermostat band – also for the product sensor.

Night setback of thermostat value

In refrigeration appliances there may be big load diﬀerences between the shop’s opening and closing hours, especially if night lids/blinds are used. The thermostat reference may be raised here without it having any eﬀect on the product temperature. Change-over between day and night operation can take place, as follows:

• via an external switch signal.

• via a signal from the data communication system.

Product sensor

A separate optional product sensor S6, which may be placed in the appliance, can also be used and which can register and monitor the temperature in the warmest part of the appliance. There are separate alarm limits and time delays for the product sensor. The function is not available in application 9.

Appliance cleaning

This function makes it easy for the shop’s staﬀ to carry out a cleaning of the appliance according to a standard procedure. Appliance cleaning is activated via a signal – as a rule via a key switch placed on the appliance. Appliance cleaning is carried out via three phases: 1 - at the ﬁrst activation the refrigeration is stopped, but the fans

keep on operating in order to defrost the evaporators. ”Fan” is shown on the display.

2 - at the second activation the fans are also stopped and the

appliance can now be cleaned. ”OFF” is shown on the display.

3 - At the third activation refrigeration is recommenced. The

display will show the actual appliance temperature, (o97 setting).

Documentation When appliance cleaning is activated a cleaning alarm is transmitted to the normal alarm recipient. A later processing of these alarms will document that the appliance has been cleaned as often as planned.

Alarm monitoring There are no temperature alarms during appliance cleaning.

Appliance shut-down

The function closes the AKV valve and all outputs are switched oﬀ. The cooling appliance is stopped like the “Main switch”, but this happens without an “A45 standby alarm”. The function can be enabled by a switch on the DI input or via a setting through data communication.

Defrost

Depending on the application you may choose between the following defrost methods: Natural: Here the fans are kept operating during the defrost Electric: The heating element is activated Hotgas: Here the solenoid valves are controlled so that the hotgas can ﬂow through the evaporator

Defrost sequence

1) Pump down

2) Defrost

3) Waiting position after defrost

4) Draining (drain delay. Hotgas only)

5) Drip oﬀ

6) Delay of fan

Hot gas defrost (application 6 only)

This type of connection can be used on systems with hotgas defrost, but only in small systems in, say, supermarkets – the functional content has not been adapted to systems with large charges Relay 2 is used for suction valve Relay 4’s change-over function can be used by the bypass valve and/or the hotgas valve. If the valves PMLX and GPLX are used, the delay time “d23” will have to be properly set. During hot gas defrosting, it is not possible to start a manual defrosting cycle with a touch on the controller’s lower button. A manual defrost can be started with a signal on a DI input.

Hot gas application

Drip tray heating element

It is possible to control a heating element in the drip tray for hot gas defrosting. When defrosting is commenced, the heating element is activated. The heating element remains activated until a set time after defrosting has ended by time or temperature.

Start of defrost

A defrost can be started in diﬀerent ways Interval: Defrost is started at ﬁxed time intervals, say, every

eighth hour. An interval must ALWAYS be set to a "higher" value than the period set between two defrostings when a schedule or network signal is used.

Refrigeration time: Defrost is started at ﬁxed refrigeration time

intervals, in other words, a low need for refrigeration will ”postpone” the defrost

Schedule: Here defrost can be started at ﬁxed times of the

day and night. However, max. 6 times Contact: Defrost is started with a contact signal on a digital input Network: The signal for defrost is received from a system unit via the data communication Adaptive defrost: Here defrosting is started based on intelligent

registering of evaporator performance. Manual: An extra defrost can be activated from the controller’s

lower-most button (however not by hot gas defrost). Or

it can be started via a parameter setting. All the mentioned methods can be used at random – if just of them is activated a defrost will be started.

Stop of defrost

Defrosting can be stopped by either:

• Time

• Temperature (with time as safety).

Compressor

If the defrosting method is set to “Hotgas,” the compressor will be “On” during the defrost cycle.

Fans

The fans can be stopped or operated during defrosting. They can also run and then be stopped at a set temperature. The temperature signal is obtained from the defrost stop temperature.

6 User guide RS8GL402 © Danfoss 2018-11 AK-CC 550B

Coordinated defrost

There are two ways in which coordinated defrost can be arranged. Either with wire connections between the controllers or via data communication

Wire connections The digital input DI2 is connected between the current controllers. When one controller starts a defrost all the other controllers will follow suit and likewise start a defrost. After the defrost the individual controllers will move into waiting position. When all are in waiting position there will be a change-over to refrigeration.

Coordination via data communication Here the system unit handles the coordination. The controllers are gathered in defrosting groups and the system unit ensures that defrosting is started in the group according to a weekly schedule. When a controller has completed defrosting, it sends a message to the system unit and then goes into a waiting position. When every controller in the group is in a waiting position, refrigeration is again permitted in all the individual controllers.

Defrost on demand

1 Based on refrigeration time

When the aggregate refrigeration time has passed a ﬁxed time, a defrost will be started. (The function is not activated if the adaptive defrosting has been set to 2, 3 or 4.)

Adaptive defrosting:

This function assesses the need for defrosting on the basis of the airﬂow through the appliance. It may even start a defrost and may even cancel a scheduled defrost. The following functions can be selected: 0 Oﬀ 1 Monitoring

A value is calculated for the evaporator air ﬂow here.

An alarm will be triggered in the case of icing up or ﬂash gas.

2 Adaptive day (can replace one defrost per day).

This setting can be used if the appliance does not have a blind or

lid during the day, and blinds or lids are used at night.

A value is calculated for the day evaporator air ﬂow.

The evaporator is monitored during the day only, and the next

scheduled defrost is carried out if required.

If the function does not require a defrost at the time of the

scheduled defrost during the day, the defrost will not be carried

out.

All scheduled defrosts are carried out during the night.

3 Adaptive day and night (can replace defrosting both day and night).

This setting can be used if the appliance has a door or a sliding

door, or it is completely uncovered both day and night.

The setting is also recommended for rooms.

A value is calculated for the evaporator air ﬂow.

The evaporator is monitored, and the next scheduled defrost will

be carried out as required.

If the function does not require a defrost at the time of the

scheduled defrost, the defrost will not be carried out.

Max. 10

System manager

4 Full adaptive (can start an extra defrost).

This setting can be used if the appliance has a door or a sliding door, or it is completely uncovered both day and night. The setting is also recommended for rooms. A value is calculated for the evaporator air ﬂow. The evaporator is monitored, and a defrost will be carried out as required regardless of schedules. All scheduled defrosts will also be carried out, so it is recommended to incorporate as few scheduled ones as possible.

Adaptive defrosting requires the following connections:

- Expansion valve type AKV

- Temperature signal from both S3 and S4

- Temperature signal from the condensing pressure Pc which is distributed via the network from a system manager. The value should show the pressure in front of AKV valve.On plants where each part is not representative is the signal from system manager not be used. Here, the controller uses a constant.

NOTE. The S3 and S4 sensors must be placed in the air ﬂow/chan-

nel immediately before/after the evaporator.

Note The function "Adaptive defrost” should only be activated when the evaporator runs under normal operational conditions.

Min. time between defrosts

There is a 2 hours minimum time between defrosts. This avoids that planned defrosts in accordance with the weekly schedule or DI signal are carried out immediately after a defrost on demand has been carried out. The time applies from when a defrost on demand has been completed to when a planned defrost is again permitted. The defrost on demand will not start defrosting with a shorter interval than the 2 hours either.

Melting function

This function will stop the air ﬂow in the evaporator from being reduced by frost created by uninterrupted operation for a long time. The function is activated if the thermostat temperature has remained in the range between -5°C and +10°C for a longer period than the set melting interval. The refrigeration will then be stopped during the set melting period. The frost will be melted

Real-time clock

The controller has a built-in real-time clock which can be used to start defrosts. This clock has a power reserve of four hours. Expires the power reserve, the alarm E6 will occur. If this happens, the clock must be checked / reset. If the controller is equipped with data communication, the clock

will automatically be updated from the system unit. so that the air ﬂow and hence the evaporator’s capacity will be greatly improved.

AK-CC 550B User guide RS8GL402 © Danfoss 2018-11 7

Control of two compressors (application 5)

The two compressors must be of the same size. When the controller demands refrigeration it will ﬁrst cut in the compressor with the shortest operating time. After the time delay the second compressor will be cut in.

When the temperature has dropped to ”the middle of the diﬀerential”, the compressor with the longest operation time will be cut out. The running compressor will continue until the temperature has reached the cutout value. Then it will cut out. When the temperature again reaches the middle of the diﬀerential, a compressor will again be started. If one compressor cannot maintain the temperature within the diﬀerential, the second compressor will also be started. If one of the compressors has run on its own for two hours, the compressors will be changed over so that operational time is balanced.

The two compressors must be of a type that can start up against a high pressure. The compressors’s settings for ”Min On time” and ”Min Oﬀ time” will always have top priority during normal regulation. But if one of the override functions is activated, the ”Min On time” will be disregarded.

Railheat

It is possible to pulse-control the power to the rail heat in order to save energy. Pulse control can either be controlled according to day/night load or dew point.

Pulse control according to day and night

Various ON periods can be set for day and night operation. A period time is set as well as the percentage part of the period in which the rail heat is ON.

Pulse control according to dew point

In order to use this function a system manager of the type AK-SM is required which can measure dew point and distribute the current dew point to the appliance controllers. For this the rail heat’s ON period is controlled from the current dew point. Two dew point values are set in the appliance control:

• One where the eﬀect must be max. i.e.100%. (o87)

• One where the eﬀect must be min. (o86). At a dew point which is equal to or lower than the value in 086, the eﬀect will be the value indicated in o88. In the area between the two dew point values the controller will manage the power to be supplied to the rail heat.

During defrosting

During defrosting rail heat will be active, as selected in setting d27.

Fan

Pulse control

To obtain energy savings it is possible to pulse control the power supply to the fans at the evaporators. Pulse control can be accomplished in one of the following ways:

- during the thermostat’s cutout period (cold room)

- during night operation and during the thermostat’s cutout pe-

riod (appliance with night lid) (The function is not current when r14=2, i.e. modulating regulation).

A period of time is set as well as the percentage of this period of time where the fans have to be operating.

Cutout of fans during plant breakdowns

If the refrigeration in a breakdown situation stops, the temperature in the cold room may rise quickly as a result of the power supply from large fans. In order to prevent this situation the controller can stop the fans if the temperature at S5 exceeds a set limit value.

Light function

The function can be used for controlling the light in a refrigeration appliance or in a cold room. It can also be used for controlling a motorised night blind.

The light function can be deﬁned in three ways:

- the light is controlled via a signal from a door contact. Together

with this function there is a time delay so that the light is kept on

for a period of 2 minutes after the door has been closed.

- the light is controlled via the day/night function

- the light is controlled via the data communication from a system

unit.

Here there are two operational options if data communication

should fail:

- The light can go ON

- The light can stay in its current mode.

The light load must be connected to the NC switch on the relay. This ensures that the light remains on in the appliance if power to the controller should fail. The light is switched oﬀ when "r12" (Main switch) is set to oﬀ (see o98). The light is switched oﬀ when the appliance cleaning function is activated.

Period time

Night blind

Motorised night blind can be controlled automatically from the controller. The night blinds will follow the status of the light function. When the light is switched on, the night blinds opens and when the light is switched oﬀ, the night blinds close again. When the night blinds are closed, it is possible to open them using a switch signal on the digital input. If this input is activated, the night blinds will open and the refrigeration appliance can be ﬁlled with new products. If the input is activated again, the blinds close again. When the night blind function is used, the thermostat function can control with diﬀerent weighting between the S3 and S4 sensors. A weighting during day operation and another when the blind is closed. (The S4% night setting is not aﬀected by the night blind function.) A night blind is open when the appliance cleaning function is activated. A setting can deﬁne that the night blind is open when "r12" (Main switch) is set to oﬀ (see o98). When the night blind rolls down, the fan will be stopped for 2 minutes. The night blind can thereby roll down to the correct position.

AK-CC 550B User guide RS8GL402 © Danfoss 2018-11 9

Digital inputs

There are two digital inputs DI1 and DI2 with contact function and one digital input DI3 with high voltage signal. They can be used for the following functions:

- Readout of contacts position via data communication

- Door contact function with alarm

- Starting a defrost

- Main switch - start/stop of cooling

- Night setback

- Thermostat bands switch

- General alarm monitoring

- Case cleaning

- Appliance shutdown

- Forced cooling

- Override of night blinds

- Allow ﬂooded evaporator

- Coordinated defrost (DI2 only)

- Forced closing of valve (DI3 only)

- Refrigerant leak alarm (DI1 and DI2 only)

Forced closing

The AKV valves can be closed with an external signal ( "Forced closing"). The function must be used in connection with the compressor’s safety circuit, so that there will be no injection of liquid into the evaporator when the compressor is stopped by the safety controls. (However not at low pressure – LP). If a defrost cycle is in progress, the forced closing status will not be re-established until the defrost is completed. Otherwise, the defrost cycle is stopped immediately once the signal is received. The function is deﬁned in o90. The signal can be received from the DI3-input or via the data communication. During a forced closing the fans can be deﬁned to be stopped or in operation.

Door contact

The door contact function can via the digital inputs be deﬁned for two diﬀerent applications:

Alarm monitoring

The controller monitors the door contact and delivers an alarm message if the door has been opened for a longer period than the set alarm delay.

Alarm monitoring and stop of refrigeration

When the door is opened the refrigeration is stopped, i.e. the injection, the compressor and the fan are stopped and light switch on. If the door remains open for a longer time than the set restart time, refrigeration will be resumed. This will ensure that refrigeration is maintained even if the door is left open or if the door contact should be defective. If the door remains open for a longer period than the set alarm delay an alarm will also be triggered.

Heating function (App. 8 only)

The heating function is used to prevent the temperature becoming too low, e.g. in a cutting room, etc. The limit for when the heating function cuts oﬀ is set as an oﬀset value under the current cutout limit for the refrigeration thermostat. This ensures that refrigeration and heating do not occur simultaneously. The diﬀerence for the heating thermostat has the same value as for the refrigeration thermostat. To prevent that the heating thermostat cuts in during short-term drops in air temperature a time delay can be set for when to change from refrigeration to heating.

Data communication

The controller has ﬁxed built-in MODBUS data communication.

If there is a requirement for a diﬀerent form of data communication, a Lon RS 485 / DANBUSS module can be inserted in the controller. The connection must then be to terminal RS 485.

(To use a Lon RS 485 module and gateway type AKA 245 the module must be Version 6.20 or higher.)

Display

The controller has one plug for a display. Here display type EKA 163B or EKA 164B (max. length 15m) can be connected. EKA 163B is a display for readings. EKA 164B is both for readings and operation. The connection between display and controller may be with a cable which has a plug at both ends.

If the distance between display and controller is greater than 15 m, the connection must take another form. An extra module must also be mounted in the controller if data communication is used. The built-in MODBUS data communication is used so that the display connection and the data communication to the other controllers must take place via a module. The module can be: Lon RS 485 / DANBUSS or MODBUS. When a display is to be connected to the built-in MODBUS, the display can advantageously be changed to one of the same type, but with Index A (version with screw terminals). The controllers address must be set higher than 0 in order for the display to be able to communicate with the controller. If connection of two displays is required, one must be connected to the plug (max. 15 m) and the other must then be connected to the ﬁxed data communication. (In application 9 and 10, the MODBUS display will show values for the B section.)

! Address o03 > 0

Important

All connections to the data communication MODBUS / DANBUSS and RS 485 must comply with the requirements for data communication cables. See literature: RC8AC.

Override

The controller contains a number of functions which can be used together with the override function in the master gateway/system manager.

Applications

Here is a survey of the controller’s ﬁeld of application.

A setting will deﬁne the relay outputs so that the controller’s interface will be targeted to the chosen application.

On page 28 you can see the relevant settings for the respective wiring diagrams.

S3 and S4 are temperature sensors. The application will determine whether either one or the other or both sensors are to be used. S3 is placed in the air ﬂow before the evaporator. S4 after the evaporator. A percentage setting will determine how the control is to be based. S5 is a defrost sensor and is placed on/in the ﬁns of the evaporator. S6 is a product sensor. DI1, DI2 and DI3 are contact functions that can be used for one of the following functions: door function, alarm function, defrost start, external main switch, night operation, change of thermostat reference, appliance cleaning, forced refrigeration or coordinated defrost. DI3 has a 230 V input. See the functions in settings o02, o37and o84.

 = O61 setting

General:

The ten uses are all adapted for commercial refrigeration systems in the form of either refrigeration appliances or cold storage rooms. In general all have outputs for:

• AKV valve

• Fan

• Defrost

In addition they have diﬀerent uses and thereby input and outputs.

Application 1-4

Standard applications. This is for standard use where the vital diﬀerence is only diﬀerent combinations of the following functions/outputs:

• Alarm

• Rail heat

• Compressor

• Light

12 User guide RS8GL402 © Danfoss 2018-11 AK-CC 550B

The following uses have some special functions which in brief are:

Application 5 ”Two-compressor” operation. The two compressors must be of the same size. On start-up (after defrosting, operational stop, etc.) both compressors are started with a set time shift. One compressor starts at half the diﬀerential so that an optimum adaptation of compressor capacity takes place for the current load in the appliance/room. There is automatic runtime equalisation between the compressors. For a more detailed description please refer to earlier sections in the manual.

Application 6

Hot gas defrosting. Hot gas defrosting is adapted to commercial appliances/rooms with limited system ﬁlling. One relay controls the main valve in the suction line. A changeover relay controls both the hot gas valve and the drain valve. This means that there is no time delay between stops of hot gas and start of draining.

Application 7

Control of night blinds Night blinds follow the status of the light function – when the light is switched on, the night blinds are up and when the light is switched oﬀ, the night blinds are down. In addition a digital input provides the option of forced opening of the blinds so that the appliance can be ﬁlled with products.

Application 8 Heat thermostat The heat thermostat is typically used if the temperature is to be controlled within narrower limits, e.g. for cutting rooms, etc. The heating thermostat can be set as a diﬀerence in relation to the cutout limit for the refrigeration thermostat so that simultaneous refrigeration and heating are avoided.

Application 9 Two refrigeration sections – two defrost outputs This application is for refrigeration appliances with one valve, two evaporators and two refrigeration sections. Alarm monitoring and display readings take place individually via the "S3" sensors in each refrigeration section. There are two individual defrost sensors. There is no product sensor.

Application 10

Two refrigeration sections – one defrosting output. This application is for refrigeration appliances with one valve, one evaporator and two refrigeration sections. Alarm monitoring and display readings take place individually via the "S3" sensors in each refrigeration section.

Survey of functions

Function Para-

meter

Normal display

Normally the temperature value from one of the two thermostat sensors S3 or S4 or a mixture of the two measurements is displayed. In o17 the ratio is determined.

Thermostat Thermostat control Set point

Regulation is based on the set value plus a displacement, if applicable. The value is set via a push on the centre button. The set value can be locked or limited to a range with the settings in r02 and r 03. The reference at any time can be seen in "u91 Cutout temp".

Diﬀerential

When the temperature is higher than the reference + the set diﬀerential, the compressor relay will be cut in. It will cut out again when the temperature comes down to the set reference.

Ref. Dif.

Setpoint limitation

The controller’s setting range for the setpoint may be narrowed down, so that much too high or much too low values are not set accidentally - with resulting damages.

To avoid a too high setting of the setpoint, the max. allowable reference value may be lowered.

To avoid a too low setting of the setpoint, the min. allowable reference value may be increased.

Correction of the display’s temperature

If the temperature at the products and the temperature received by the controller are not identical, an oﬀset adjustment of the display temperature can be carried out.

Temperature unit

Set here if the controller is to show temperature values in °C or in °F.

Correction of signal from S4

Compensation possibility due to long sensor cable

Correction of signal from S3 and S3B

Compensation possibility due to long sensor cable

Start / stop of refrigeration

With this setting refrigeration can be started, stopped or a manual override of the outputs can be allowed. (For manual control the value is set at -1. Then the AKV outlet and the relay outlets can be force-controlled by the respective reading parameters (u23, u58, etc.). Here the read value can be overwritten.) Start / stop of refrigeration can also be accomplished with the external switch function connected to a DI input. Stopped refrigeration will give a ”Standby alarm-A45" (alarm relay not activated)

Night setback value

The thermostat’s reference will be the setpoint plus this value when the controller changes over to night operation. (Select a negative value if there is to be cold accumulation.)

Alarm Alarm settings

The controller can give alarm in diﬀerent situations. When there is an alarm all the light-emitting diodes (LED) will ﬂash on the controller front panel, and the alarm relay will cut in.

Alarm delay (short alarm delay on air temperature) If the upper or the lower alarm limit values are exceeded, a timer function will commence. The alarm will not become active until the set time delay has been passed. The time delay is set in minutes.

Time delay for door alarm

The time delay is set in minutes. The function is deﬁned in o02 , o37 or in o84.

Time delay for cooling (long alarm delay) This time delay is used during start-up, during defrost, immediately after a defrost. There will be change-over to the normal time delay (A03) when the temperature has dropped below the set upper alarm limit. The time delay is set in minutes.

Upper alarm limit

Here you set when the alarm for high temperature is to start. The limit value is set in °C (absolute value). The limit value will be raised during night operation. The value is the same as the one set for night setback, but will only be raised if the value is positive. In application 9 and 10 the setting is common for both S3 and S3B.

Lower alarm limit

Here you set when the alarm for low temperature is to start. The limit value is set in °C (absolute value). In application 9 and 10 the setting is common for both S3 and S3B.

Compressor Compressor control

The compressor relay works in conjunction with the thermostat. When the thermostat calls for refrigeration the compressor relay be operated.

Running times

To prevent irregular operation, values can be set for the time the compressor is to run once it has been started. And for how long it at least has to be stopped. The running times are not observed when defrosts start.

The LED on the controller’s front will show whether refrigeration is in progress. u58 comp7/LLSV

Defrost Defrost control

The controller contains a timer function that is zeroset after each defrost start. The timer function will start a defrost if/when the interval time is passed. The timer function starts when voltage is connected to the controller, but it is displaced the ﬁrst time by the setting in d05. If there is power failure the timer value will be saved and continue from here when the power returns. This timer function can be used as a simple way of starting defrosts, but it will always act as safety defrost if one of the subsequent defrost starts is not received. The controller also contains a real-time clock. By means of settings of this clock and times for the required defrost times, defrost can be started at ﬁxed times of the day. Defrost start can also be accomplished via data communication, via contact signals or manual start-up. All starting methods will function in the controller. The diﬀerent functions have to be set, so that multiple defrosts are avoided.. Defrost can be accomplished with electricity, hotgas or brine. The actual defrost will be stopped based on time or temperature with a signal from a temperature sensor.

Defrost method

Here you set whether defrost is to be accomplished with electricity, gas, or (none). During defrost the defrost relay will be cut in.

Defrost stop temperature

The defrost is stopped at a given temperature which is measured with a sensor (the sensor is deﬁned in d10). The temperature value is set.

Interval between defrost starts

The function is zeroset and will start the timer function at each defrost start. When the time has expired the function will start a defrost. The function is used as a simple defrost start, or it may be used as a safeguard if the normal signal fails to appear. If master/slave defrost without clock function or without data communication is used, the interval time will be used as max. time between defrosts. If a defrost start via data communcation does not take place, the interval time will be used as max. time between defrosts. When there is defrost with clock function or data communication, the interval time must be set for a somewhat longer period of time than the planned one, as the interval time will otherwise start a defrost which a little later will be followed by the planned one. In connection with power failure the interval time will be maintained, and when the power returns the interval time will continue from the maintained value. The interval time is not active when set to 0.

Max. defrost duration

This setting is a safety time so that the defrost will be stopped if there has not already been a stop based on temperature or via coordinated defrost. (The setting is the defrost time if d10 is set to 0.)

Time staggering for defrost cutins during start-up

The function is only relevant if you have several refrigeration appliances or groups where you want the defrost to be staggered in relation to one another. The function is furthermore only relevant if you have chosen defrost with interval start (d03). The function delays the interval time d03 by the set number of minutes, but it only does it once, and this at the very ﬁrst defrost taking place when voltage is connected to the controller. The function will be active after each and every power failure.

Drip-oﬀ time

Here you set the time that is to elapse from a defrost and until the compressor is to start again. (The time when water drips oﬀ the evaporator).

Delay of fan start after defrost

Here you set the time that is to elapse from compressor start after a defrost and until the fan may start again. (The time when water is “tied” to the evaporator).

Fan start temperature

The fan may also be started a little earlier than mentioned under “Delay of fan start after defrost”, if the defrost sensor S5 registers a lower value than the one set here.

Fan cut in during defrost

Here you can set whether fan is to operate during defrost. 0: Stopped (Runs during pump down) 1: Running (stopped during "fan delay") 2: Running during pump down and defrost. After that stopped

3: Running but stops at the set d41 temperature

Defrost sensor Here you deﬁne the defrost sensor. 0: None, defrost is based on time 1: S5 2: S4 3: Sx. For application 1 to 8 and 10 defrosting is stopped when both S5 and S6 have

reached the set temperature (Both sensors must be located on the evaporator). For application 9 defrosting is stopped individually on the two sections of S5 / S5B

Pumpdown delay

Set the time where the evaporator is emptied of refrigerant prior to the defrost.

Drain delay (only in connection with hotgas)

Set the time where the evaporator is emptied of condensed refrigerant after the defrost.

Defrost on demand – aggregate refrigeration time

Set here is the refrigeration time allowed without defrosts. If the time is passed, a defrost will be started. With setting = 0 the function is cut out.

Delay on stop of heating in the drip tray

The time applies from the time the defrost stops by time or temperature to the time the heating element in the drip tray needs to be disconnected.

Adaptive defrosting

An adaptive defrosting is an extra defrost in addition to the scheduled defrosts or a cancellation of a scheduled defrost. Here the adaptive defrost is set for when it can come into operation if the need arises: 0: Never, 1: Never, but triggers an alarm in the case of icing up 2: Cancellation of day schedule is permitted. Night schedule is carried out 3: Cancellation of day schedule is permitted. Cancellation of night schedule is permitted 4: All schedules are carried out + extra if it is registered that it is required. (Reset: Temporary setting to 0 will reset the recorded values and start a new calculation of the evaporator air ﬂow.)

Miscellaneous Miscellaneous Delay of output signal after start-up

After start-up or a power failure the controller’s functions can be delayed so that overloading of the electricity supply network is avoided. Here you can set the time delay.

Digital input signal - DI1

The controller has a digital input 1 which can be used for one of the following functions: Oﬀ: The input is not used

1) Status display of a contact function

2) Door function. When the input is open it signals that the door is open. The refrigeration and the fans are stopped and light switched on. When the time setting in “A04” is passed, an alarm will be given and refrigeration will be resumed (o89).

3) Door alarm. When the input is open it signals that the door is open. When the time setting in “A04” is passed, there will be alarm.

4) Defrost. The function is started with a pulse signal. The controller will register when the DI input is activated. The controller will then start a defrost cycle.

5) Main switch. Regulation is carried out when the input is short-circuited, and regulation is stopped when the input is put in pos. OFF.

6) Night operation. When the input is short-circuited, there will be regulation for night operation.

7) Thermostat band changeover. Switch to thermostat 2 (r21) when the input is shortcircuited.

8) Separate alarm function. Alarm will be given when the input is short-circuited.

9) Separate alarm function. Alarm will be given when the input is opened. (For 8 and 9 the time delay is set in A27)

10) Case cleaning. The function is started with a pulse signal. See also description on page 5.

11) Forced refrigeration at hotgas defrost when the input is short-circuited.

12) Night cover open / closed. Activated by pulse signal.

13,14) Not used

15) Appliance shutdown when the input is short-circuited.

20) Refrigerant leak alarm when the input is open.

21) Switch to operation with ﬂooded evaporator when the input is short-circuited

If the controller is built into a network with data communication, it must have an address.

The address is set between 0 and 240, depending on the system unit and the selected data communication. If the system unit is gateway type AKA 245, the version must be

6.20 or higher.

The address is sent to the gateway when the menu is set in pos. ON IMPORTANT: Before you set o04, you MUST set o61. Otherwise you will be transmitting incorrect data.

(The function is not used when the data communication is MODBUS)

Access code 1 (Access to all settings)

If the settings in the controller are to be protected with an access code you can set a numerical value between 0 and 100. If not, you can cancel the function with setting 0. (99 will always give you access).

Sensor type for S3, S4, S5

Normally a Pt 1000 sensor with great signal accuracy is used. But you can also use a sensor with another signal accuracy. That may either be a PTC 1000 sensor. All the mounted sensors S3-S5 must be of the same type.

Max. standby time after coordinated defrost When a controller has completed a defrost it will wait for a signal which tells that the refrigeration may be resumed. If this signal fails to appear for one reason or another, the controller will itself start the refrigeration when this standby time has elapsed. If the standby time expires, the alarm A5 is sent.

Select signal for the display S4%

Here you deﬁne the signal to be shown by the display. S3, S4, or a combination of the two. With setting 0% only S3 is used. With 100% only S4.

Digital input signal - D2

The controller has a digital input 2 which can be used for one of the following functions: Oﬀ: The input is not used.

1) Status display of a contact function

2) Door function. When the input is open it signals that the door is open. The refrigeration and the fans are stopped. When the time setting in “A04” is passed, an alarm will be given and refrigeration resumed. (o89).

3) Door alarm. When the input is open it signals that the door is open. When the time setting in “A04” is passed an alarm will be given.

4) Defrost. The function is started with a pulse signal. The controller will register when the DI input is activated. The controller will then start a defrost cycle. If the signal is to be received by several controllers it is important that ALL connections are mounted the same way (DI to DI and GND to GND).

5) Main switch. Regulation is carried out when the input is short-circuited, and regulation is stopped when the input is put in pos. OFF.

6) Night operation. When the input is short-circuited, there will be regulation for night operation.

Selection of application

The controller can be deﬁned in various ways. Here you set which of the 10 applications is required. On page 12 you can see a survey of applications.

This menu can only be set when regulation is stopped, i.e. “r12” is set to 0.

Transfer a set of pre-settings to the controller

An option exists to select quick settings for a number of parameters. This is based on whether an appliance or a room needs to be controlled or whether the defrosting must be stopped by time or by temperature. The overview can be seen on page 27.

This menu can only be set when the control is stopped, i.e. When "r12" is set at 0.

On setting the value will fall back to 0. A subsequent adjustment/setting of parameters can be carried out as required.

Access code 2 (Access to adjustments)

There is access to adjustments of values, but not to conﬁguration settings. If the settings in the controller are to be protected with an access code you can set a numerical value between 0 and 100. If not, you can cancel the function with setting 0. If the function is used, access code 1 (o05) must also be used.

Rail heat control

The rail heat can be controlled in several ways: 0: The function is not used 1: Pulse control is used with a timer function following the day/night operation (o41 and o42) 2: Pulse control is used with a dew point function. This function requires that a signal is received about the dew point value. The value is measured by a system manager and sent to the controller via the data communication.

Dew point value where the rail heat is minimum

This function is discussed earlier in the manual.

Dew point value where the rail heat is maximum

This function is discussed earlier in the manual.

Conﬁguration of alarm relay

The alarm relay will be activated upon an alarm signal from the following groups: 0 - Relay not used 1 - High temperature alarms 2 - Low temperature alarms 4 - Sensor error 8 - Digital input enabled for alarm 16 - Defrosting alarms 32 - Miscellaneous 64 - Injection alarms The groups that are to activate the alarm relay must be set by using a numerical value which is the sum of the groups that must be activated. (E.g.: a value of 5 will activate all high temperature alarms and all sensor error. 0 will cancel the relay function)

Operating status (Measurement)

The controller goes through some regulating situations where it is just waiting for the next point of the regulation. To make these “why is nothing happening” situations

Ctrl. state:

(Shown in all menu displays) visible, you can see an operating status on the display. Push brieﬂy (1s) the upper button. If there is a status code, it will be shown on the display. The individual status codes have the following meanings:

Fault message

In an error situation the LED’s on the front will ﬂash and the alarm relay will be activated. If you push the top button in this situation you can see the alarm report in the display. There are two kinds of error reports - it can either be an alarm occurring during the daily operation, or there may be a defect in the installation. A-alarms will not become visible until the set time delay has expired. E-alarms, on the other hand, will become visible the moment the error occurs. (An A alarm will not be visible as long as there is an active E alarm). Here are the messages that may appear:

Operation

Display

The values will be shown with three digits, and with a setting you can determine whether the temperature is to be shown in °C or in °F.

Light-emitting diodes (LED) on front panel

The LED’s on the front panel will light up when the relevant relay is activated.

= Refrigeration = Defrost = Fan running

The light-emitting diodes will ﬂash when there is an alarm. In this situation you can download the error code to the display and cancel/sign for the alarm by giving the top button a brief push.

The buttons

When you want to change a setting, the upper and the lower buttons will give you a higher or lower value depending on the button you are pushing. But before you change the value, you must have access to the menu. You obtain this by pushing the upper button for a couple of seconds - you will then enter the column with parameter codes. Find the parameter code you want to change and push the middle buttons until value for the parameter is shown. When you have changed the value, save the new value by once more pushing the middle button.

Examples

1. Push the upper button until a parameter r01 is shown

2. Push the upper or the lower button and ﬁnd that parameter you want to change

3. Push the middle button until the parameter value is shown

4. Push the upper or the lower button and select the new value

5. Push the middle button again to freeze the value.

Get a good start

With the following procedure you can start regulation very quickly:

1 Open parameter r12 and stop the regulation (in a new and not

previously set unit, r12 will already be set to 0 which means stopped regulation.)

2 Select electrical connection based on the drawings on page 12

and 13

3 Open parameter o61 and set the electric connection number in

4 Now select one of the preset settings from the table on page 27.

5 Open parameter o62 and set the number for the array of preset-

tings. The few selected settings will now be transferred to the menu.

6 Select refrigerant via parameter o30

7 Open parameter r12 and start the regulation

8 Go through the survey of factory settings. The values in the grey

cells are changed according to your choice of settings. Make any necessary changes in the respective parameters.

RJ45

For data communication, but only if a TCP/IP module is inserted in the controller. (OEM speciﬁc)

MODBUS

For data communication. Terminal 56 = screen Terminal 57 = A+ Terminal 58 = B(Alternatively the terminals can be connected to an external display type EKA 163A or 164A, but then they cannot be used for data communication. Any data communication must then be carried out by one of the other methods.)

There is connection between terminal 17 and 19 when the function must be active.

DI3

Digital input signal. The signal must have a voltage of 0 / 230 V AC. The function is deﬁned in o84.

Data communication

If data communication is used, it is important that the installation of the data communication cable is performed correctly. See separate literature No. RC8AC…

Electric noise

Cables for sensors, DI inputs and data communication must be kept separate from other electric cables:

- Use separate cable trays

- Keep a distance between cables of at least 10 cm

- Long cables at the DI input should be avoided

Installation considerations

Accidental damage, poor installation, or site conditions, can give rise to malfunctions of the control system, and ultimately lead to a plant breakdown. Every possible safeguard is incorporated into our products to prevent this. However, a wrong installation, for example, could still present problems. Electronic controls are no substitute for normal, good engineering practice. Danfoss will not be responsible for any goods, or plant components, damaged as a result of the above defects. It is the installer's responsibility to check the installation thoroughly, and to ﬁt the necessary safety devices. Special reference is made to the necessity of signals to the controller when the compressor is stopped and to the need of liquid receivers before the compressors. Your local Danfoss agent will be pleased to assist with further advice, etc.
