Controller operation
In normal operation the controller displays cabinet temperatures
in degrees C (default) or user-selected degrees F. Degrees C
temperatures are displayed to 1 decimal point.
The controller is pre-programmed with a +3.5 C (+38 F) set point
which provides a compressor cut-in at +3.5 C (+38 F) and cut-out at
+5.0 C (+41 F).
All set points have a 1.5 C differential. The 1.5 C differential means
that with a +3.5 C set point, for example, the compressor will turn off
at +3.5 C (+38 F) and turn on when the cabinet temperature reaches
+5 C (+41 F).
This temperature may not re ect the temperature of the blood
products in the refrigerator. The temperature of the blood products will be re ected on the recorder chart and the
recorder's digital temperature display. At times there may be a difference between the two displayed temperatures.
Adjust the controller SET value to achieve your desired blood product temperature as displayed on your chart
recorder.
