1. GENERAL WARNING

1.1 PLEASE READ BEFORE USING THIS MANUAL

 This manual is part of the product and should be kept near the instrument for easy and quick reference.  The instrument shall not be used for purposes different from those described hereunder. It cannot be used

as a safety device.

 Check the application limits before proceeding.  Dixell Srl reserves the right to change the composition of its products, even without notice, ensuring the

same and unchanged functionality.

1.2 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

 Check the supply voltage is correct before connecting the instrument.  Do not expose to water or moisture: use the controller only within the operating limits avoiding sudden

temperature changes with high atmospheric humidity to prevent formation of condensation

 Warning: disconnect all electrical connections before any kind of maintenance.  Fit the probe where it is not accessible by the End User. The instrument must not be opened.  In case of failure or faulty operation send the instrument back to the distributor or to “Dixell S.r.l.” (see

address) with a detailed description of the fault.

 Consider the maximum current which can be applied to each relay (see Technical Data).  Ensure that the wires for probes, loads and the power supply are separated and far enough from each

other, without crossing or intertwining.

 In case of applications in industrial environments, the use of mains filters (our mod. FT1) in parallel with

inductive loads could be useful.

2. GENERAL FEATURES

The series XB has been created for fast chilling or freezing goods according to international food safety standards. Lo strumento dispone delle seguenti funzioni:  there are FOUR types of cycles:

* Soft Chilling * Hard Chilling * Soft Freezing

* Hard Freezing At the end of each cycle the instrument switches automatically to Hold mode. The user can select one of them according to his own requirements and modify it as he wants..

 Any cycle can be manually terminated before the normal.  Each cycle can use up to 3 insert probes or a MultiPoint probe (max 3 points) to be inserted in the product.  During the Cycle there are no defrosts and the fans are always on, a defrost cycle can be done before any

freezing cycle.

 Each cycle can be divided into 3 phases + hold with dedicated parameters.  Low and high temperature alarm management of the condenser.  Log of last 15 HACCP alarm incidents (high temperature, power failure and maximum cycle time

exceeded).

 Option to activate a delay on instrument startup to enable heating of the compressor carter.  Each instrument is provided with an output for remote display  The XB590L controller is provided with internal real time clock and can be connected to the XB07PR

printer.

 Reading and writing parameters can be managed, in addition from the instrument keyboard, through the

Dixell Wizmate software.

3. MOUNTING & INSTALLATION

The XB590L can be fitted to the back panel, with a 150x31mm hole, and fixed with 2 studs 165mm apart. To increase protection, use the rear-front protective rubber mod. PG-L (optional). To apply the polycarbonate in the front panel, drill a hole in the panel as shown in chapter 3.1. The ambient operating temperature range is from 0÷60°C (RH 20÷85%). Avoid locations subject to heavy vibration, corrosive gases or excessive dirt. The same warnings have to be applied to the probes. Ensure enought ventilation around the instrument.

3.1 CUT OUT FOR FRONT OR BACK-PANEL MOUNTING

4. CONNECTIONS

Insert probes 2 and 3 (17-18-19) are disabled at the factory. Relay outputs 9-10 (oA3)=light, 7-8 (oA1)=Aux, 1-2(oA2)=alarm are configured at the factory. Port micro connects to contacts 25-26.

5. FRONT PANEL

 Upper Display: Cell temperature  Lower Display:Timer or insert probe  Alarm and status icons.

If an icon or LED is on, the correspondent function is enabled.

If an icon or LED is flashing, the correspondent function is delayed.

The keyboard consists of 8 keys configured as follows:

 On/Off  Chilling cycle

 Freezing cycle  Hard Cycles (Chilling and

freezing)

 Setting holding set  Menu key, up and defrosting  Down key, temperature/time

 Auxiliary exit key

6.3 INSTRUMENT IN OFF AND STAND-BY

Off:

To switch on the instrument from the OFF status, shown by the OFF label on the display.

press the button . The instrument will be placed in stand-by

while waiting for a cycle to be selected and displaying the temperature of the control probe.

Display in the OFF status:

Display in the Stand-by status:

Stand-by: On switching the instrument on, the icons

in the display will flash to indicate that the Soft Chilling (1) or Soft Freezing (2) cycles can be selected; by pressing the key

the LEDs will flash to indicate that the Hard Chilling (3) or Hard Freezing (4) cycles can be selected.

Soft Chilling selection:

Press and release the button , the icon turns off and the icon stays on. To

start the cycle press and release the key

. Manual interruption:

Press and release the key . The icon for the current cycle starts to flash. The

cycle is restarted by pressing the key again or automatically after the time set by the PAU parameter (maximum time cycle interruption).

Final stop: Keep the button pressed for more

than 2 seconds; the controller will go into stand-by.

Setting the clock(RTC):

Keep the key pressed to access the clock menu and set the date and time.

Use the arrows to view the elements:

 Min= minutes  Hou= hour

Set the holding temperature at cycle end:

If a chilling cycle requires holding then press and release the key , and its HdS value (holding setpoint) will be displayed for 5 seconds.

To edit HdS: within 5 seconds keep pressed until

HdS flashes, use the arrows to edit the value.

To confirm: press the key again.

6.8 CONFIGURATION OF KEYS

The instrument, compared to the standard Dixell configuration, can be configured with different functions for

the keys; other possible configurations are:

This type of configuration requires:

 Key (parameter b2) configured as SSt  Key (parameter b3) configured as SCy  Key (parameter b4) configured as Lig  Key (parameter b7) configured as Prn

 Key (parameter b8) configured as AuS.

This type of configuration requires:

 Key (parameter b2) configured as Cy1  Key (parameter b3) configured as Cy2  Key (parameter b7) configured as Cy3

If the keys are configured with the same function, the controller display will display the label “Err ConF”.
