1. Introduction
Application
AK-PC 772A is complete regulating units for capacity control of
compressors and gas cooler in a small CO2 refrigeration systems.
Either as a compressor and condenser control on MT or as a booster system. There can be regulated with one parallel compressor.
The controller is with oil management, heat recovery function and
CO2 gas pressure control.
In addition to capacity control the controllers can give signals to
other controllers about the operating condition, e.g. forced closing of expansion valves, alarm signals and alarm messages.
The controller’s main function is to control compressors and gas
cooler so that operation all the time takes place at the energyoptimum pressure conditions. Both suction pressure and gas
pressure are controlled by signals from pressure transmitters and
temperature sensors.
Among the different functions are:
- Capacity control of up to 3 compressors on high pressure
(2 if also regulating with parallel compressor).
- Capacity control of up to 2 compressors on low pressure
- Up to 3 unloaders for each compressor
- Speed control of one or two compressors
- Up to 6 safety inputs for each compressor
- Option for capacity limitation to minimize consumption peaks
- When the compressor does not start, signals can be transmitted
to other controllers so that the electronic expansion valves will
be closed
- Control of liquid injection into suction line
- Safety monitoring of high pressure / low pressure / discharge
temperature
- Capacity control of up to 4 fans
- Floating gas cooler reference with regard to outside temperature
- Heat recovery function
- CO2 gas cooler control and receiver control
- Parallel compression on transcritical CO2 system
- Step coupling, speed regulation or a combination
- Safety monitoring of fans
- The status of the outputs and inputs is shown by means of lightemitting diodes on the front panel
- Alarm signals can be generated via data communication
- Alarms are shown with texts so that the cause of the alarm is
easy to see.
- Plus some completely separate functions that are totally independent of the regulation – such as alarm, thermostat, pressure
and PI-regulating functions.

Principles
The great advantage of this series of controllers is that it can be
extended as the size of the plant is increased. It has been developed for refrigeration control systems, but not for any specific
application – variation is created through the read-in software and
the way you choose to define the connections.
It is the same modules that are used for each regulation and the
composition can be changed, as required. With these modules
(building blocks) it is possible to create a multitude of various
kinds of regulations. But it is you who must help adjusting the
regulation to the actual needs – these instructions will assist you
to find your way through all the questions so that the regulation
can be defined and the connections made.
Controller
Top part
Advantages
• The controller’s size can “grow” as systems grow
• The software can be set for one or more regulations
• Several regulations with the same components
• Extension-friendly when systems requirements are changed
• Flexible concept:
- Controller series with common construction
- One principle – many regulation uses
- modules are selected for the actual connection requirements
- The same modules are used from regulation to regulation.
Extension modules
Bottom part
The controller is the cornerstone of the regulation. The module has inputs and
outputs capable of handling small systems.
• The bottom part – and hence the terminals – are the same for all controller types.
• The top part contains the intelligence with software. This unit will vary according
to controller type. But it will always be supplied together with the bottom part.
• In addition to the software the top part is provided with connections for data
communication and address setting.
Examples
A regulation with few connections can
be performed with the controller module
alone
If the system grows and more functions have to be controlled, the regulation can be
extended.
With extra modules more signals can be received and more relays cut in and out –
how many of them – and which – is determined by the relevant application.
If there are many connections one or more extension modules have to be mounted

Direct connection
Setup and operation of an AK controller must be accomplished via
the “AK-Service Tool” software program.
The program is installed on a PC, and setup and operation of
the various functions are carried out via the controller’s menu
displays.
Displays
The menu displays are dynamic, so that different settings in one
menu will result in different setting possibilities in other menus.
A simple application with few connections will give a setup with
few settings.
A corresponding application with many connections will give a
setup with many settings.
From the overview display there is access to further displays for
the compressor regulation and the condenser regulation.
At the bottom of the display there is access to a number of general
functions, such as “time table”, “manual operation”, “log function”,
“alarms”, and “service” (configuration).
Network linking
The controller can be linked up into a network together with other
controllers in an ADAP-KOOL® refrigeration control system. After
the setup operation can be performed at a distance with, say, our
software program type AKM.
Users
The controller comes supplied with several languages, one of
which can be selected and employed by the user. If there are several users, they may each have their choice of language. All users
must be assigned a user profile which either gives access to full
operation or gradually limits the operation to the lowest level that
only allows you “to see”.
Language selection is part of the service tool settings.
If the language selection is not available in the service tool for the
current regulator, English texts will be displayed.
External display
An external display can be fitted in order for P0 (Suction) and Pc
(Condensing) readings to be displayed.
A total of 4 displays can be fitted and with one setting it is possible to choose between the following readings: suction pressure,
suction pressure in temperature, Ss, Sd, condenser pressure, condenser pressure in temperature, gas cooler temperature, etc.
A graphical display with control buttons can also be fitted.
AK-PC 772A Capacity controller RS8HF102 © Danfoss 2017-07 5
Light-emitting diodes
A number of light-emitting diodes makes it possible to follow the
signals that are received and transmitted by the controller.
Log
From the log function you can define the measurements you wish
to be shown.
The collected values can be printed, or you may export them to a
file. You can open the file in Excel.
If you are in a service situation you can show measurements in a
trend function. The measurements are then made real-time and
displayed instantly.

Alarm
The display gives you an overview of all active alarms. If you wish
to confirm that you have seen the alarm you can cross it off in the
acknowledge field.
If you want to know more about a current alarm you can click on it
and obtain an information display on the screen.
A corresponding display exists for all earlier alarms. Here you can
upload information if you need further details about the alarm
history.

2. Design of a controller
This section describes how the controller is designed.
The controller in the system is based on a uniform connection
platform where any deviations from regulation to regulation is
determined by the used top part with a specific software and
by which input and output signals the relevant application will
require. If it is an application with few connections, the controller
module (top part with belonging bottom part) may be sufficient.
If it is an application with many connections it will be necessary to
use the controller module plus one or more extension modules.
This section will give you a survey of possible connections plus
assistance in selecting the modules required by your actual ap-
plication.
AK-PC 772A Capacity controller RS8HF102 © Danfoss 2017-07 7
Module survey
• Controller module – capable of handling minor plant requirements.
• Extension modules. When the complexity becomes greater
and additional inputs or outputs are required, modules can be
attached to the controller. A plug on the side of the module will
transmit the supply voltage and data communication between
the modules.
• Top part
The upper part of the controller module contains the intelligence. This is the unit where the regulation is defined and where
data communication is connected to other controllers in a bigger network.
• Connection types
There are various types of inputs and outputs. One type may, for
example, receive signals from sensors and switches, another may
receive a voltage signal, and a third type may be outputs with
relays etc. The individual types are shown in the table below.
Extension module with additional analog inputs
• Optional connection
When a regulation is planned (set up) it will generate a need for
a number of connections distributed on the mentioned types.
This connection must then be made on either the controller
module or an extension module. The only thing to be observed
is that the types must not be mixed (an analog input signal must
for instance not be connected to a digital input).
• Programming of connections
The controller must know where you connect the individual
input and output signals. This takes place in a later configuration where each individual connection is defined based on the
following principle:
- to which module
- at which point (”terminals”)
- what is connected (e.g. pressure transmitter/type/
pressure range).
Extension module with additional relay outputs and additional
analog inputs.
External display for
suction pressure etc.
Bottom part
Controller with analog inputs and
relay outputs.
Top part
Extension module with
2x analog output signals
The module with additional relay outputs is
also available in a version where the top part
is provided with change-over switches so
that the relays can be overridden.
If the row of modules needs to
be interrupted due to length or
external positioning, a communication module should be used.

Controller
Function
There are several controllers in the series. The function is determined by the programmed software, but outwardly the controllers are identical – they all have the same connection possibilities:
11 analog inputs for sensors, pressure transmitters, voltage signals
and contact signals.
8 digital outputs, with 4 Solid state outputs and 4 relay outputs
Supply voltage
24 V a.c. or d.c. to be connected to the controller.
The 24 V must not be retransmitted and used by other controllers as it is not galvanically separated from inputs and outputs. In
other words, you must use a transformer for each controller. Class
II is required. The terminals must not be earthed.
The supply voltage to any extension modules is transmitted via
the plug on the right-hand side.
The size of the transformer is determined by the power requirement of the total number of modules.
The supply voltage to a pressure transmitter can be taken either
from the 5 V output or from the 12 V output depending on transmitter type.
PIN
Data communication
If the controller is to be included in a system, communication
must take place via the LON connection.
The installation has to be made as mentioned in the separate
instructions for LON communication.
Address setting
When the controller is connected to a gateway type AKA 245,
the controller’s address must be set between 1 and 119. (If it is a
system manager AK-SM .., then 1-999).
Service PIN
When the controller is connected to the data communication
cable the gateway must have knowledge of the new controller.
This is obtained by pushing the key PIN. The LED “Status” will flash
when the gateway sends an acceptance message.
Operation
The configuration operation of the controller must take place
from the software program “Service Tool”. The program must be
installed on a PC, and the PC must be connected to the controller
via the USB-B plug on the front of the unit.
Light-emitting diodes
There are two rows with LED’s. They mean:
Left row:
• Voltage supply to the controller
• Communication active with the bottom PC board (red = error)
• Status of outputs DO1 to DO8
Right row:
• Software status (slow flash = OK)
• Communication with Service Tool
• Communication on LON
• Communication with AK-CM 102
• Alarm when LED flashes
- 1 LED that is not used
• Communication with display on RJ11 plug
• “Service Pin” switch has been activated

Communication module AK-CM 102
Function
The module is a new communication module, meaning the row of
extension modules can be interrupted.
The module communicates with the regulator via data communication and forwards information between the controller and the
connected extension modules.
Connection
Communication module and controller fitted with RJ 45 plug connectors.
Nothing else should be connected to this data communication; a
maximum of 5 communication modules can be connected to one
controller.
Communication cable
One metre of the following is enclosed:
ANSI/TIA 568 B/C CAT5 UTP cable w/ RJ45 connectors.
Positioning
Max. 30 m from the controller
(The total length of the communication cables is 30 m)
Max. 32 VA
Supply voltage
24 volt AC or DC should be connected to the communication
module.
The 24 V can be sourced from the same supply that supplies the
controller. (The supply for the communication module is galvanically separated from the connected extension modules).
The terminals must not be earthed.
The power consumption is determined by the power consumption of the total number of modules.
The controller strand load must not exceed 32 VA.
Each AK-CM 102 strand load must not exceed 20 VA.
Point
Connection points on the I/O modules should be defined as if the
modules were an extension of each other.
Address
The address for the first communication module should be set to
1. Any second module should be set to 2. A maximum of 5 modules can be addressed.
Termination
The termination switch on the final communication module
should be set to ON.
The controller should permanently be set to = ON.
Warning

Preface to design
Be aware of the following when the number of extension modules
is being planned. A signal may have to be changed, so that an additional module may be avoided.
• An ON/OFF signal can be received in two ways. Either as a
contact signal on an analog input or as voltage on a low or highvoltage module.
• An ON/OFF output signal can be given in two ways. Either with a
relay switch or with solid state. The primary difference is the permitted load and that the relay switch contains a cutout switch.
Mentioned below are a number of functions and connections that
may have to be considered when a regulation has to be planned.
There are more functions in the controller than the ones mentioned here, but those mentioned have been included in order
that the need for connections can be established.
Functions
Clock function
Clock function and change-over between summer time and winter time are contained in the controller.
The clock setting is maintained for at least 12 hours at a power
failure.
The clock setting is kept updated if the controller is linked up in a
network with a system manager.
Start/stop of regulation
Regulation can be started and stopped via the software. External
start/stop can also be connected.
Warning
The function stops all regulation, including any high-pressure
regulation.
Excess pressure can lead to a loss of charge.
Start/stop of compressors
External start/stop can be connected.
Alarm function
If the alarm is to be sent to a signal transmitter, a relay output will
have to be used.
I'm alive function
A relay can be reserved which is pulled during normal regulation.
The relay will be released if the regulation stops with the main
switch or if the controller fails.
Extra temperature sensors and pressure sensors
If additional measurements have to be carried out beyond the
regulation, sensors can be connected to the analog inputs.
Forced control
The software contains a forced control option. If an extension
module with relay outputs is used, the module’s top part can be
with change-over switches – switches that can override the individual relays into either OFF or ON position.
Wiring should be done with a safety relay. See Regulating functions.
Data communication
The controller module has terminals for LON data communication.
The requirements to the installation are described in a separate
document.
