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.
In addition, product sensor S6, which can be optionally placed in the appliance, can be used for registration and
alarming of the temperature near the food items.
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.

Injection control
Adaptive superheat control
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.
Figure 7: Adaptive superheat control with AKV valve
The superheat is measured via a 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.
The function contains an adaptive algorithm which independently adjusts the valve’s opening so that the
evaporator constantly supplies optimum amount of refrigerant.
Adaptive liquid control is used in trans-critical CO2 ejector systems, which allow liquid ow. When adaptive liquid
control is initiated, the superheat of the evaporator will be minimized so that a controlled amount of liquid is
present at the outlet of the evaporator.
This type of control requires that the controller receives an on/o signal from (for example) a suction accumulator in
the suction line.
Figure 8: Adaptive liquid control with AKV valve
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.
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.
Liquid injection by use of stepper valve
Instead of AKV, an external stepper driver can be connected to AO1 (0 – 10 V) to drive a stepper valve. DO1 (AKV
output) is then congured to close a liquid line solenoid valve (LLSV) when the stepper valve output is 0%. The LLSV
is also closed at power failure.
Figure 9: Injection control via step motor valve and liquid
line solenoid valve (LLSV)
Oil recovery
In some multi evaporator systems, oil might accumulate in the evaporators over time. The oil recovery feature will
help to get the oil back to the compressors/suction accumulator.
Oil recovery can be initiated via a digital input signal or as a network signal. When oil recovery is initiated, the valve
opening degree will be increased to ush the oil out of the evaporator.
Oil recovery has the following control options:
0 = No oil recovery
1 = Adaptive liquid control + Normal fan control
2 = Adaptive liquid control + Fan OFF
3 = Fixed opening degree of valve + Normal fan control
4 = Fixed opening degree of valve + Fan OFF
Adaptive liquid control (option 1 and 2)
When oil recovery is initiated, the injection function will switch to adaptive liquid control, decreasing the superheat
reference, increasing the valve opening degree and thereby achieving a controlled amount of liquid refrigerant at
the outlet of the evaporator. As the compressor controller at the same time runs with a higher capacity/speed, this
combination will result in a higher amount of returned oil.
Figure 10: Adaptive liquid control increases valve opening degree during oil return
Fixed opening degree (option 3 and 4)
When oil recovery is initiated, the injection function will switch to a user-dened opening degree to ood the
evaporator with refrigerant and thereby ush the oil back to the compressor/suction accumulator. However, this
option provides no control or monitoring of the superheat and it is solely up to the user to ensure that the system
design provides a safeguard of the compressors.
Safety
A couple of safety functions are in place to protect the preserved food from too low temperatures during an oil
recovery cycle.
If an oil recovery has been ongoing for a longer period than the set “Max. oil recovery time”, oil recovery will be
stopped, and normal control resumed.
Oil recovery is stopped if the alarm air temperature decreases below the set low alarm limit.
Temperature control
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 3: Control methods
Food temperature sensor
A separate optional product sensor S6, which may be placed in the appliance, can also be used and can register and
monitor the food temperature in the appliance. There are separate alarm limits and time delays for the product
sensor.
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.
For the defrost control, separate defrost stop temperature and max. defrost time can be set for each thermostat
band. For the compressor control it is possible to disable the second compressor in thermostat band 2 if required.
Figure 11: 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 12: Thermostat band function with Night setback
Temperature sensor types
The S2 and S6 sensors always have to be Pt1000 sensors due to the high measuring accuracy.
For the S3, S4 and S5 sensors, the user can select between the following sensor types:
0=Pt1000 (Danfoss AKS 11)
1=PTC1000 (Danfoss EKS 111)
2=NTC 5k (Danfoss EKS 211)
3=NTC 10k (Danfoss EKS 221)
4 = User-dened
If “User-dened” is selected, three sensor measuring points must be provided and based on these three sensor
points, a sensor characteristic is generated.
A sensor point is dened by setting a temperature value and the corresponding resistance value at this temperature.
The resistance value is set via two values for kohm and ohm respectively. These values can be found in the data
sheet for the sensor.
The three sensor points must be:
1.
Lowest temperature in wanted measuring range
2.
Highest temperature value in wanted temperature range
3.
Temp. value in the middle where a high measuring accuracy is required
A sensor error is detected at temperature values below/above the min./max. temperature values typed in for the
sensor points.
Figure 13: Example of sensor points from a NTC sensor
Limitations:
A user dened temperature sensor can only be be dened within the temperature range from -40 – +60 °C and
within the resistance range from 400 – 179.999 ohm.
When applying a new user dened sensor type, please contact Danfoss for validation of compliance and measuring
accuracy.
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 4: 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.
The following defrost methods can be selected:
0: None
1: Electrical
2: Hot gas defrost (Simple)
3: Natural
Electrical defrosting
At electrical defrost, an electrical heater is placed in front of the evaporator and the fan will “pull” the hot air through
the evaporator during defrosting.
Figure 14: Electrical defrosting
Hot gas defrosting
Remote hot gas defrost is supported in application mode 5. The hot gas defrost sequence covers control of the hot
gas valve, suction valve and drain valve. It is intended for smaller systems in e.g. supermarkets – the functional
content has not been adapted to industrial systems with large refrigerant charges.
Figure 15: Hot gas defrosting
Simple hot gas defrosting
If hot gas defrost is selected in application 1-3, the compressor will be running during defrost and a hot gas valve
(HGV) is bypassing the compressor discharge gas to the evaporator inlet and thereby the evaporator is defrosted.
Natural defrost
At natural defrost, the ice is melted by running the fans and thereby circulating warm air through the evaporator.
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 17: Defrost start
Network:
The defrost start signal is received from a system manager via data communication.
Adaptive defrost:
Here defrosting is started based on intelligent registering of evaporator performance.
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 (though, not with application
5) or via a 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
• S4A temperature (with time as safety)
• S5A temperature (with time as safety)
• S5A and S5B temperatures (with time as safety)
When the selected defrost stop sensor reaches the set defrost stop limit, the defrost is terminated. If the defrost stop
sensor does not reach the set defrost stop limit within the set max. defrost time, the defrost will be terminated on
time.
Minimum defrost time
When using hot gas for defrosting, the heat is coming from within the evaporator, and this means that the S5 sensor
is rising fast when the inner layer of ice is melted. This will sometimes cause parts of the evaporator not to be
defrosted when defrost is terminated on S5 evaporator temperature.
To prevent this, the user is given the option of setting a minimum defrost time. When a defrost is initiated, it will
have to run for the set minimum time even if the set defrost stop limit has been reached by the selected defrost stop
sensor.
Defrost sequence
When a defrost is initiated, the controller will run through the following sequence:
Pump down: where the evaporator is emptied of refrigerant
2.
Hot gas inj. delay (Hot gas only): where suction valve is given time for closing
3.
Defrost: where the ice on the evaporator is melted
4.
Hold after defrosting: where multiple controllers wait for each other (coordinated defrost)
5.
Drip o: where remaining water is dripping o evaporator
6.
Drain delay (Hot gas only): where the drain valve is opened to drain the liquid refrigerant
7.
Fan delay: where the fans are restarted when the remaining water on the evaporator has turned into ice
Figure 18: Electrical defrost sequence
During an electrical defrost sequence where the defrost heater is ON during defrost, AKV valve is closed and fans are
running during defrost but stopped during drip.
Figure 19: Remote hot gas defrost sequence
Remote hot gas defrost sequence where suction valve and drain valves are closed while hot gas valve is injecting
hot gas into the evaporator. After defrost, the drain valve is opening to drain the evaporator for liquid refrigerant
and then the suction valve is opening. When the water has dripped o the evaporator, liquid injection is started via
the AKV valve and the fans start when the evaporator temperature has reached the fans' start temperature.
Fan control during defrost
During the defrost sequence, the evaporator fans can be controlled in one of the following ways:
1.
The fan is OFF in the entire defrost sequence
2.
The fan is ON during the entire defrost sequence except during fan delay state
3.
The fan is ON during defrost state and is OFF in the rest of the defrost sequence
4.
Like option 2, however the fans can be stopped if the selected defrost stop sensor exceeds a set fan stop limit
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 20: 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.
Adaptive defrosting
The Danfoss adaptive defrost algorithm detects the amount of ice build-up and cancels a scheduled defrost if it is
not needed, or it can be set up to only perform defrost if the evaporator air ow is getting interrupted by frost or ice.
The overall concept is based on comparison of the energy uptake on the refrigerant ow side with the energy
emission on the air ow side. When the evaporator is clean, an energy balance is assumed, while a growing
imbalance can be identied when ice formation is build up on the evaporator surface ending up with blocked
airow.
4 dierent adaptive defrost modes
0 O
1. Monitoring
Can be set up in parallel to other defrost methods and generate an alarm in case of blocked air ow / ice-up of the
evaporator. If ash gas issues are detected on the refrigerant ow side, a ash gas alarm is generated.
Allows the controller to cancel (skip) defrosts scheduled within day time. Defrosts scheduled at night operation will
be carried through and not skipped. Only defrosts that are set up via a schedule in the frontend using master
control functions or set up via the internal defrost schedule in the controller can be skipped.
3. Adaptive skip day and night:
With this set-up, the controller can allow to cancel (skip) defrosts scheduled both within day time and within night
time. For both adaptive skip day and night max. 3 consecutive defrosts can be skipped, whereafter the 4th
scheduled defrost will be performed even if only little ice should be present.
4. Full adaptive:
Full Adaptive mode is ideal for applications where defrost is not requested to be performed at a certain time, but
can be performed whenever ice is starting to interrupt the airow. It makes sense to combine this mode with the
defrost interval timer as a safety timer.
Adaptive defrosting requires the following connections:
• Expansion valve type AKV
• Pe evaporator pressure and S2 gas out temperature
• Temperature signal from both S3 and S4. Sensors must be placed in the airow/channel immediately before / after
the evaporator.
• Condensing temperature Tc is distributed via the network from the system manager. If Tc is not received by the
case controller, the adaptive defrost function is using default back-up values.
NOTE:
Adaptive parameters will be reset after a defrost has been initiated or at main switch in stopped or service mode. At
start up with a warm evaporator (measured with S2 sensor), the evaporator is presumed clean. If the evaporator
temperature is measured below 0.1 °C, adaptive defrost will request a defrost start to secure a clean evaporator.
Min. time between defrosts
There is a preset 2 hours minimum time between defrosts. This avoids that planned defrosts in accordance with the
weekly schedule are carried out immediately after an adaptive defrost has been carried out. The time applies from
when an adaptive defrost has been completed to when a planned defrost is again permitted. The adaptive defrost
will not start defrosting with a shorter interval than the 2 hours either.
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 dew point.
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 dew point and distribute to the appliance controllers. For this the rail heat’s
ON period is controlled according to the distributed dewpoint.
Two dew point 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 dew point values, the controller will manage the power to be supplied to the rail heat.
Figure 23: Rail heat control, dew point
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).
Fan ECO operation (only custom set-up)
Fan ECO operation is used to reduce fan speed during night operation – typically on cabinets with night blinds.
The function is enabled when a relay has been congured for Fan ECO function in one of the applications with
custom set-up of relay functions.
The fan economy control (fan speed) is controlled via the two fan outputs:
• Fan output
• Fan Eco output
If the Fan output is activated, then the fan is running with 100% speed.
If the Fan ECO output is also activated, then the fan is running with reduced speed (typically 50%).
If both fan outputs are de-activated, then the fans are stopped.
Figure 25: Fan ECO control – Fan speed reduced to 50% during night operation
The fans will always run with full speed during day operation, rst stage of case cleaning, defrost, forced cooling and
when air heating is active.
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 is controlled via the day/night function. A digital input setup for light control can switch light ON, if the
light is switched o during night
2.
The light is controlled by a system manager via the parameter o39. A digital input setup for light control can
switch light ON, if the light is switched o by the system manager.
3.
Light is controlled via the door switch. Light is switched ON when door is opened and switched OFF 2 minutes
after the door has been closed.
4.
Like option 2, but here the light is switched ON automatically if the communication to the system manager has
been lost for 15 minutes
5.
Light is only controlled via a digital input setup for light control
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 either through the custom set-up night
blind output or via the NO connector on the light relay. 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.
Humidity control
In application 8 when setup for room control it is possible to dene if humidity control should be done via a
humidier or a dehumidier.
When humidity control is enabled, the second display will read out the actual humidity.
The controller measures the humidity via a 0 – 10 V signal from a humidity sensor and by means of a DO relay it can
activate a humidier or a de-humidier.
High and low humidity alarm limits can be set to generate a humidity alarm.
Humidity control is disabled when main switch is OFF, at manual control, at case shutdown, at forced closing mode,
at door open, if cooling is stopped, at humidity sensor error and at case cleaning.
It is possible to dene whether humidity control is enabled during defrost or not.
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 29: 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.
Example: If DI1 is to be used to start a defrost, o02 must be set to 4.
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 up 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.
Alarm monitoring and stop of fans:
When the door is opened, only the fans are stopped. If the door remains open for a longer time than the set alarm
delay, an alarm is triggered and the fans will start running again.
Display
The controller has one or two plugs for an external display.
One of the following display types can be connected to a plug:
• 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.
If there are two external displays, it will be the sum of the two distances that cannot exceed 100 m.

Electric noise
Cables for sensors, low voltage DI inputs and data communication must be kept separate from other high voltage
cables:
• Use separate cable trays
• Keep a distance between cables of at least 10 cm
• Long cables at the low voltage 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 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.
Replacing AK-CC 550 with AK-CC55
NOTE:
Be aware when exchanging an AK-CC 550 controller with a new AK-CC55 controller - new wiring principles!
The display keys will be locked automatically when not used for some time and the keyboard must be
unlocked by pressing the arrow-up and arrow-down keys at the same time.
The display keys will be locked and unlocked by means of a master control signal from the System Manager.

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. In connection with power failure the interval
