Refrigeration appliance control with great exibility to adapt to refrigeration appliances and cold storage rooms.
Advantages:
• Control of Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TEV) and Electronic Expansion valve(EEV) applications
• Quick set-up with predened settings
• Easy conguration and service using a mobile app with Bluetooth
• Adaptive Minimum Stable Superheat (MSS) control is performed with lowest possible superheat
• Allows the suction pressure to be raised several degrees
• Adaptive Liquid Control (ALC) can be performed with superheat down to 0 degrees on transcritical CO2 systems
with liquid ejectors
Principle
The temperature in the appliance is registered by one or two temperature sensors which are located in the air ow
before the evaporator (S3) or after the evaporator (S4) respectively. A setting for thermostat, alarm thermostat and
display reading determines the inuence the two sensor values should have for each individual function.
The temperature of the evaporator is registered with the S5 sensor which can be used as a defrosting sensor.
In addition to the output of the electronic AKV injection valve, the controller has relay outputs which are dened by
the application setting

• High accuracy inputs:
◦ to guarantee a better measuring accuracy than stated in the standard EN ISO 23953-2 without subsequent
calibration (Pt1000 ohm sensor).
• Integrated MODBUS communication
Liquid injection by use of AKV
Liquid injection in the evaporator is controlled by an electronic injection valve of the type AKV. The valve operates
as both expansion valve and solenoid valve. The controller opens and closes the valve based on sensor readings.
The function contains an adaptive algorithm which independently adjusts the valve’s opening so that the
evaporator constantly supplies optimum amount of refrigerant.
Superheat is measured via:
Pressure sensor Pe and temperature sensor S2. By using a pressure sensor and temperature sensor, 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 shared by max. 10 controllers, but only if there is no signicant pressure
dierence between the evaporators in question.
Figure 8: Liquid injection function with AKV valve
• Dry expansion, which does not allow liquid ow on the outlet of the evaporator.
• Adaptive liquid control in transcritical CO2 systems, which allows liquid ow. This type of control requires that the
controller receives an on/o signal from (for example) a suction accumulator in the suction line. A level switch in
the tank will register when the liquid level exceeds the max. level. When this happens, the controller will switch to
dry expansion, and then back to liquid control when the liquid level has dropped. The function is dened in
setting o02, o37 or o84.
The function can also be activated via data communication from a system unit. If the adaptive liquid control signal is
lost, the controller will automatically switch back to dry expansion.
Table 3: Liquid injection
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.
Thermostatic expansion valve control
In the compact version the refrigeration (injection) can be controlled either by starting/stopping a compressor or by
opening/closing a solenoid valve in the liquid line.
Figure 9: AK-CC55 Compact with evaporator, solenoid
valve, expansion valve and sensor positions
Brine control
When changing from ON/OFF control to modulating control in TXV applications, a solenoid valve can be PWM
controlled with a set period time from 30 – 900 sec. A number of additional brine control parameters are available in
the injection control menu. When brine control is enabled, a dedicated brine defrost can also be set up in order to
force open the brine valve while defrosting.
The temperature in the appliance is registered by one or two temperature sensors which are located in the return air
before the evaporator (S3) or after the evaporator (S4) respectively. A setting for the thermostat, night thermostat,
alarm thermostat and display reading determines how much the two sensor values should inuence each individual
function, e.g. 50% of S4 will produce an equal value from both sensors.
The actual temperature control can take place in two ways:
1.
As an ordinary ON/OFF regulation with a dierential, or
2.
As a modulating control where the temperature variation will not be nearly as high as in ON/OFF control.
There is, however, a limit to the use of a modulating control as it can only be used in remote cabinets. It is not
recommended to use modulating thermostat control in low temperature applications. In applications with one
evaporator and one compressor, the thermostat function with ON/OFF control should be selected. In remote
cabinets, the thermostat function may either be selected for ON/OFF control or modulating control.
Table 4: Control methods
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 inuence 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 alarm.
This time delay is active for pull-down, after defrosting, appliance cleaning and start-up.
Thermostat bands
Thermostat bands can be used benecially for appliances where dierent product types are stored, which requires
dierent temperature conditions. It is possible to change between the two dierent 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.
Figure 10: Thermostat band function with two dierent band settings
Night setback of thermostat value
In refrigeration appliances there may be big load dierences 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 eect on
the product temperature.
Change-over between day and night operation can take place as follows:
• via an external switch connected to a digital input.
• via a signal from the data communication system.
Figure 11: Thermostat band function with Night setback
Appliance cleaning
This function makes it easy for the shop’s sta to carry out a cleaning of the appliance according to a standard
procedure. Appliance cleaning is activated via a pulse signal – as a rule via a key switch placed on the appliance or
via the AK-CC55 Connect mobile app.
Appliance cleaning is carried out via three phases:
1.
At the rst 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.
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.
There are no temperature alarms during appliance cleaning.
Table 5: Appliance cleaning function
Appliance shutdown
The function closes the AKV valve and all outputs are switched o. 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
• Hot gas: Simple hot gas defrost can be selected in application modes where a compressor is controlled. The
compressor unit will operate during defrosting
• Brine defrost: The brine valve is forced open while defrosting (only possible when selecting modulating control in
TXV applications)
Defrost is started at xed time intervals like e.g. 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.
Week schedule:
Here defrost can be started at xed times of the day and night. However, max. 6 defrosts per day.
Contact:
Defrost is started with a contact signal on a digital input.
Figure 12: Defrost start
Network:
The defrost start signal is received from a system manager via data communication.
Max. thermostat runtime:
When the aggregate time has passed a preset value, a defrost will be initiated.
Manual:
An extra defrost can be activated from the defrost button on the AK-UI55 Set display via the app, or via the
parameter setting. All the mentioned methods can be used in parallel – if just one 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 run during hot gas defrost
If the defrosting method is set to “Gas,” the compressor will be “On” during the defrost cycle. (Only for application
situations that include a compressor output).
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 sensor.

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 days.
If the controller is equipped with data communication, the clock will automatically be updated from a Danfoss
system manager.
Coordinated defrost
There are two ways in which coordinated defrost can be arranged.
Figure 13: Coordinated defrost options
Either with wire connections between the controllers or via data communication:
Wire connections
The digital input DI2 must be congured for coordinated defrost and wiring must be connected between the
relevant 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 manager handles the coordination. The controllers are gathered in defrosting groups and the
system manager 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 manager 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.
Melt function
This function will prevent the air ow 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 so that the air ow and hence the evaporator’s capacity will be greatly improved.
Control of two compressors (only with custom set-up)
Two compressor steps can be controlled cyclic or sequentially. At cyclic control, two compressors must be of the
same size, while in sequential control compressor step 1 can be larger than step 2.
When the controller demands refrigeration, it will rst 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 dierential”, the compressor with the longest operation
time will be cut out.
The running compressor will continue until the temperature has reached the cut-out value. Then it will cut out.
When the temperature again reaches the middle of the dierential, a compressor will again be started.
If one compressor cannot maintain the temperature within the dierential, 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 compressor's settings for ”Min. On time” and ”Min. O time” will always have top priority during normal
regulation. But if one of the override functions is activated, like e.g. defrost, door open function, case shutdown,
forced closing, the ”Min. On time” will be disregarded.
Sequential control
Compressor steps are controlled in the same manner as described for cyclic control, but compressor step 1 will
always be started rst and cut out as the last one. No time equalization is available in sequential control mode.
Rail heat
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 dewpoint.
Relay or analogue output
A relay output can be used when long cycle times are permitted. If fast pulsing is required, the AO1/PWM output
can be used. The output must be connected to an external power solid state relay. The cycle time must be
congured for the relay output in o43 or for analogue output in P82.
Pulse control according to day and night
Various ON periods can be set for day and night operation. A cycle time is set as well as the percentage part of the
period in which the rail heat is ON.
In order to use this function, a system manager of the type AK-SM is required which can measure ambient
temperature and humidity to calculate dewpoint and distribute to the appliance controllers. For this the rail heat’s
ON period is controlled according to the distributed dewpoint.
Two dewpoint values are set in the appliance control:
• One where the eect must be max. i.e. 100%. (o87)
• One where the eect must be min. (o86)
At a dewpoint which is equal to or lower than the value in 086, the eect will be the value indicated in o88. In the
area between the two dewpoint values, the controller will manage the power to be supplied to the rail heat.
Figure 16: Rail heat control, dewpoint
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 evaporator fans.
Pulse control can be accomplished in one of the following ways:
• during the thermostat’s cut-out period (cold room)
• during night operation and during the thermostat’s cut-out period (appliance with night blinds) (The function is
not actual 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.
If the refrigeration in a breakdown situation stops, the temperature in the cold room may rise quickly as a result of
the emission of heat 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. The fans will start running again when the S5 temperature has dropped
2K below the set limit. (The function can also be used as a type of MOP function. Here the load on the compressors
is limited until the S5 temperature has fallen below the congured value).
ECO operations (only with custom set-up)
Reduced fan speed is permitted when the night blind is down. (Fan with changeover between high and low speed).
ECO operation is not permitted if the heat function is activated.
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 dened in several ways:
• The light is controlled via a signal from a door contact. The light is kept on for a set time after the door has been
closed.
• The light is controlled via the day/night function
• The light is controlled via a DI input
• The light is controlled via the data communication from a system manager. 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 terminals on the relay.
This ensures that the light remains ON in the appliance if power to the controller should fail.
A setting denes how light is controlled when regulation is stopped via r12 Main switch = OFF (see o98). The light is
switched o when the appliance cleaning function is activated.
Night blind
Motorised night blinds 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 open, and when the light is switched o, 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 pulse signal is activated, the night blinds will open and the refrigeration appliance can be lled with
new products. If the pulse signal is activated again, the blinds close.
When the night blind function is used, the thermostat function can control with dierent weighting between the S3
and S4 sensors. A weighting during day operation and another when the blind is closed.
A night blind is opened when the appliance cleaning function is activated.
A setting can dene that the night blind is opened when "r12" (Main switch) is set to o (see o98).
When the night blind rolls down, the fan will be stopped for the set time. The night blind can thereby roll down to
the correct position.
The heating function is used to prevent the temperature from becoming too low, e.g. in a cold room, etc. The limit
for when the heating function cuts o is set as an oset value below the current cut-out limit for the refrigeration
thermostat. This ensures that refrigeration and heating do not occur simultaneously. The dierence 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.
Figure 18: Heating function
Digital inputs
There are two digital inputs, DI1 and DI2, with dry contact function, and one digital input DI3 with high voltage
signal.
They can be used for the following functions:

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 and cannot start again (however
not at low pressure – LP).
Via a setting (see o90 Fan at forced closing) it is possible to dene whether the fan should be ON or OFF during
forced closing and whether an ongoing defrost is suppressed (i.e. put in standby position for a period of upto 10
minutes before it is cancelled) - this feature can be used in CO2 systems to eliminate excessive heating while
compressors cannot run.
The signal can be received from the DI-input or via the data communication.
Door contact
The door contact function can via the digital inputs be dened for two dierent 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 switches 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.
Display
The controller has one plug for an external display.
One of the following display types can be connected:
• AK-UI55 Info (temperature display).
• AK-UI55 Set (temperature display and operation).
• AK-UI55 Bluetooth (temperature display and app interface).
The connection between the display and the controller must be made using an AK-UI55 cable.
The distance between the controller and the display must not exceed 100 m.

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 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 t 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.

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. In connection with power failure the interval
time will be maintained, and when the power returns
the interval time will continue from the maintained
