1.2
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Check the supply voltage is c orrect before connecting the instrum ent.
• Do not expose to water or moisture: use the controller only within the operating limits avoiding sudden
temperature changes with high atmospher ic humidity to prevent formati on of condensation
• Warning: disconnect all electrical connections before any kind of maintenance.
• Fit the probe where it is not acc es sible by the End User. The instrument m ust 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 whic h c an be appl ied 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 usef ul.
2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Models XW30LH and XW30LRH, format 38x 185mm, are m icroproces sor based controll ers, suitable
for normal temperature appl ications on ventilated refrigerating uni ts. They have 3 relay outputs to
control compressor, fan, and light.
They could be prov ided with a Real Ti me Clock which al lows programmi ng of up to 6 daily defrost
cycles, divi ded into hol iday s and wor kdays . A “Day and Night” function with two diff erent set points is
fitted for energy savi ng. T hey ar e also provided with up to 3 NTC or P T C pr obe i nputs , t he fi r s t one for
temperature control, the second one, to be located onto the evaporator, to control the defrost
termination temperatur e and to managed the fan. One of the digital i nputs can operate as third
temperature probe. The fourth probe is used to signal the c ondens er tem per at ure alarm or to display a
temperature. NOTE: the fourth probe is available only for XW30LH models.
The HOT KEY output allows connec ting the unit, by means of the external module XJ485-CX, to a
network line ModBUS-RTU compatible such as the dIXEL monitoring units of X-WEB family. It
allows programming the controller by means the HOT KEY programming keyboard.
The instrument is fully configurable through special parameters that can be easily programmed
through the keyboard.
3. CONTROLLING LOADS
3.1 COMPRESSOR
The regulation is perfor med according to the
temperature measured by the thermostat
probe with a posi tive diff erential from the set
point: if the temperature increases and
reaches set point plus differential the
compressor is started and then turned off
when the temperature reaches the set point
In case of fault i n the thermostat probe the start and stop of the compress or are timed through
parameters Con and CoF.
3.2 DEFROST
Defrost is performed through a simple stop of the compressor.
The defrost inter v al depends on the pr es enc e of t he RTC (opt i onal ) . I f the RT C i s pr es ent i s c ont rolled
by means of parameter EdF:
- EdF=in: a defrost starts after elapsing the idF time (standard way for controller without RTC).
- EdF=rtC: defrosts are s cheduled by using a real time clock system, depending on the hours
set in the parameters Ld1..Ld6, during workdays, and in Sd1…Sd6 during holidays.
Other parameters are used t o control defrost cycles: its maximum l ength (MdF) and two defrost
modes: timed or controlled by the evaporator’s probe (P2P).
3.3 CONTROL OF EVAPORATOR FANS
The fan control mode is selected by means of the FnC parameter:
- FnC=C_n: fans will switch ON and OFF with the compressor and not run during defrost;
- FnC=o_n: fans will run even if the compressor is off, and not run during defrost;
- FnC=C_Y: fans will switch ON and OFF with the compressor and run during defrost;
- FnC=o_Y: fans will run continuously also during defrost.
After defrost, there is a timed fan delay allowing for drip time, set by means of the Fnd parameter.
An additional parameter FSt provides the setting of temper ature, detected by the evaporator pr obe,
above which the fans are always OFF. This is used to make sure circulation of air only if his
temperature is lower than set in FSt.
3.3.1 Forced activation of evaporator fans
This function, managed by the FCt parameter, is designed to avoid s hort cycles of evaporator fans,
which could happen when the contr ol l er i s s wi t c hed on or after a defrost (when the room air warms the
evaporator). If the temperature difference between t he evaporator and the room probes is higher than
the value set in the FCt parameter the fans are switched on. With FCt=0 this function is disabled.
3.3.2 Fans cyclic activation with compressor off.
When FnC=C-n or C-Y (fans working in parallel with the c ompr essor ), by means of the Fon and FoF
parameters the fans c an car ry out on and off cyc les even if the com press or is swi tched off . When the
compressor is s topped the fans go on worki ng for the Fon tim e. With Fon=0 the fans remain always
off, when the compressor is off.

9. DIGITAL INPUTS
The first digital input (XW30LH: terminals 13-14; XW30LRH: terminals 14-15) is enabled if P3P=n.
With P3P=n and i1F=i2F the second digital input will be disabled.
The free voltage digital inputs are programmable by the i1F and i2F parameters.
9.1 GENERIC ALARM (i1F or i2F = EAL)
As soon as the digital input i s act ivat ed the unit wi ll wait for did ti m e delay before signalling the “EAL”
alarm message. The outputs status doesn’ t change. T he alarm s tops jus t after the digi tal i nput is deactivated.
9.2 SERIOUS ALARM MODE (i1F or i2F = bAL)
When the digital input is activated, the unit will wait for did delay before s ignalling the “CA” alarm
message. The relay outputs are sw itched OFF . The alarm will stop as s oon as the digi tal input is deactivated.
9.3 PRESSURE SWITCH (i1F or i2F = PAL)
If during the interval ti me set by did parameter, the pressure swi tch has reached the number of
activation of the nPS parameter; the “CA” pressure al ar m m es s age wi l l be displayed. The compress or
and the regulation are stopped. When the di gital input is ON the compressor is always OFF. If the
nPS activation in the did time is reached, switch off and on the instrument to restart normal
regulation.
9.4 DOOR SWITCH INPUT (i1F or i2F = dor)
It signals the door status and the corresponding r elay output status through the odC parameter: no:
normal (any change); FAn: Fan OFF; CPr: Compressor OFF; F_C: Compressor and fan OFF.
Since the door is opened, after the delay t ime set through par ameter did, the door al arm i s enabled,
the display shows the m essage “dA” and the regulation restar ts if rtr=YES. The alar m stops as
soon as the external digit al input i s disabl ed again. With the door open, the hi gh and low tem peratur e
alarms are disabled.

9.5 START DEFROST (i1F or i2F = dEF)
It starts a defrost if there are the right conditions. After the defrost is finished, the normal regulation will
restart only i f t he di gi tal input is disabled otherwise t he i ns tr um ent w i l l wait until the MdF safety ti m e is
expired.
9.6 SWITCH THE AUXILIARY RELAY (i1F or i2F = AUS)
With oAx=AUS the digital input will change the status of the auxiliary relay.
9.7 INVERSION OF THE KIND OF ACTION: HEATING-COOLING (i1F or i2F=Htr)
This function allows to invert the regulation of the controller: from cooling to heating and viceversa.
9.8 ENERGY SAVING (i1F or i2F = ES)
The Energy Saving funct ion allows to change the set point value as the result of the SET+HES
(parameter) sum. This function is enabled until the digital input is activated.
9.9 ON OFF FUNCTION (i1F or i2F = onF)
To switch the controller on and off.
9.10 DIGITAL INPUTS POLARITY
The digital input polarity depends on the i1P and i2P parameters.
- i1P or i2P =CL: the input is activated by closing the contact.
- i1P or i2P=OP: the input is activated by opening the contact.
10. TTL SERIAL LINE – FOR MONITORING SYSTEMS
The TTL serial line, available through the HOT KEY connector, allows by means of the external
TTL/RS485 converter, XJ485-CX, to c onnect the instrument to a moni toring system ModBUS-RTU
compatible such as the X-WEB500/3000/300.
11. X-REP OUTPUT – OPTIONAL
As optional, an X-REP can be connected to the instrument, trough the dedicated connector.
To connect the X-REP to the
instrument the following
connectors must be used
CAB/REP1(1m), CAB/REP2
(2m), CAB/REP5 (5m),
12. INSTALLATION AND MOUNTING
The XW30LH shall be mounted on vertic al panel, in a 150x31 mm hole, and fixed using the special
brackets supplied wi th the controllers. The temper ature range allowed for correct operation is 0 to
60°C. Avoid places s ubj ec t to s tr ong v i br at i ons , c or r osive gases, excessive dir t or humi di ty . The same
