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 DESCRIPTION

Model XR72CX, format 32 x 74 mm, is microprocessor based controller, suitable for applications on medium or low temperature ventilated refrigerating units. It has four relay outputs to control compressor 1, compressor 2, fan and defrost, which can be either electrical or reverse cycle (hot gas). It is also provided with up to four NTC or PTC probe inputs, the first one for temperature control, the second one, to be located onto the evaporator, to control the defrost termination temperature and to managed the fan. The digital input can operate as third temperature probe. The fourth one, to connect to the HOT KEY terminals is used to signal the condenser temperature alarm or to display a temperature.

The HOT KEY output allows to connect the unit, by means of the external module XJ485-CX, to a network line ModBUS-RTU compatible such as the Dixell monitoring units of X-WEB family. It allows to program 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 performed according

Temper.

to the temperature measured by the

 

thermostat

probe

with

a

positive

SET

differential from the set point: if the

 

temperature increases and reaches set

Time

point plus differential the compressor is

 

started and then turned off when the

Compr.

temperature reaches the set point value

ON

again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

In case of fault in the thermostat probe the start and stop of the compressor are timed through parameters “COn” and “COF”.

3.2 2ND COMPRESSOR MANAGEMENT – XR72C ONLY

The relay of the second compressor is activated in parallel with the relay of the first compressor, with a possible delay set in the AC1 parameter. Both the compressors are switched off at the same time.

3.3 DEFROST

Two defrost modes are available through the “tdF” parameter: defrost through electrical heater (tdF = EL) and hot gas defrost (tdF = in). Other parameters are used to control the interval between defrost cycles (IdF), its maximum length (MdF) and two defrost modes: timed or controlled by the evaporator’s probe (P2P).

At the end of defrost dripping time is started, its length is set in the FSt parameter. With FSt =0 the dripping time is disabled.

3.4 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;

After defrost, there is a timed fan delay allowing for drip time, set by means of the “Fnd” parameter.

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

An additional parameter “FSt” provides the setting of temperature, detected by the evaporator probe, 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”.

3.4.1Forced activation of fans

This function managed by the Fct parameter is designed to avoid short cycles of fans, that could happen when the controller is switched on or after a defrost, when the room air warms the evaporator. Functioning: if the difference of temperature between the evaporator and the room probes is more than the value of the Fct parameter, the fans are switched on. With Fct=0 the function is disabled.

3.4.2Cyclical activation of the fans with compressor off.

When Fnc = c-n or c-Y (fans in parallel to the compressor), by means of the Fon and FoF parameters the fans can carry out on and off cycles even if the compressor is switched off. When the compressor is stopped the fans go on working for the Fon time. With Fon =0 the fans remain always off, when the compressor is off.
