Cryo-Compact Circulators
Operating manual
1. Intended use
JULABO Cryo-Compact Circulators have been designed for temperature application to specific fluids in
a bath tank. The units feature pump connections for temperature control of external systems (loop
circuit).
JULABO circulators are not suitable for direct temperature control of foods, semi-luxury
foods and tobacco, or pharmaceutical and medical products. Direct temperature control
means unprotected contact of the object with the bath medium (bath fluid).
1.1. Description
The Cryo-Compact circulators are operated via the splash-proof keypad. The
implemented microprocessor technology allows to set and to store different values
that can be indicated on the VFD COMFORT-DISPLAY and LCD DIALOGDISPLAY. Three menu keys facilitate adjusting setpoints, warning and safety
functions and menu functions.

The integrated programmer allows storing and running temperature and time-
dependent processes.
The control electronics including “ICC - Intelligent Cascade Control“ automatically
adapts the heat supplied to the thermal requirements of the bath.
The TCF - Temperature Control Features allow the user to have access to all
important temperature control parameters. This means: Full control on the control
mode and the chance to manually adjust or adapt control to the specific application.
Absolute Temperature Calibration (ATC3). With the 3-point calibration an offset is
adjusted at three temperatures to ensure an accurate temperature pattern at the
selected spot in the bath over the full temperature range.
Electrical connections:
The serial interface, switchable from RS232 to RS485, allows modern process
technology without additional interface.
Connection for Pt100 external sensor for external temperature measurement and
control.
Alarm output for external alarm message or control of JULABO refrigerating baths
or solenoid valve (cooling water).
The electronic module (option) provides 3 further analog connections (alarm input,
standby input, recorder output, programmer input).
The excess temperature protection conforming to IEC 61010-2-010 is a safety
installation independent from the control circuit. This protection can be indicated
and set on the LCD DIALOG-DISPLAY.
The early warning system for low level signals that bath fluid needs to be refilled
before the low level protection conforming to IEC 61010-2-010 causes a complete
shut-down of the main functional elements.
Intelligent pump system: The pump capacity (electronically adjustable via the motor
speed) enables to adapt to varying conditions for internal and external temperature
applications..

Autostart
Possible parameters:
on - AUTOSTART on
off - AUTOSTART off (Factory setting)
Note:
The temperature system has been configured and supplied by JULABO
according to N.A.M.U.R. recommendations. This means for the start mode, that
the unit must enter a safe operating state after a power failure (non-automatic
start mode). This safe operating state is indicated by „ OFF „, resp. R OFF on
the VFD-COMFORT-DISPLAY. A complete shutdown of the main functional
elements such as heater and circulating pump is effected simultaneously.
The values set on the Cryo-Compact Circulator remain stored, and the unit is
returned to operation by pressing the start/stop key (in manual control mode).
In remote control mode, the values need to be resent by the PC via the
interface.
Should such a safety standard not be required, the AUTOSTART function
(automatic start mode) may be activated, thus allowing the start of the
instrument directly by pressing the mains power switch or using a timer.
The AUTOSTART function can only be used, if setpoint setting is carried
out via >keyboard< or >eprog< or >ext. Pt100<.
Warning:
For supervised or unsupervised operation with the AUTOSTART function, avoid any
hazardous situation to persons or property.
The instrument does no longer conform to N.A.M.U.R. recommendations.
The safety and warning functions of the instrument should always be used to their
fullest capacity.

Warning:
The working temperature range of the Cryo-Compact Circulator is determined during
configuration. If set to >Control<, this range cannot be exceeded.
If set to > serial < and > eprog <, heat or cold is applied to the bath without control.
The permissible maximum temperature can be exceeded. The user has to take
adequate precautions for temperature control.
Materials, such as gaskets or insulations for example, may be damaged or destroyed, if
the permissible maximum temperature is exceeded.
The safety and warning functions of the instrument should always be used to their
fullest capacity. (See page 27)

8.4. Integrated programmer
The integrated programmer allows any desired temperature program
sequences to be realized. Such a temperature sequence is called profile. A
profile consists of individual sections defined by duration (t:) and target
temperature. Target temperature is the setpoint (T:), that is achieved at the end
of a section. The programmer uses time and temperature difference values
within a section to calculate a temperature ramp.

Activate the standby input:
1. Under menu item >Ext. StBy<, set the parameter to >activ<.
2. Connect an external contact ‚AK‘ (e.g. for emergency switch-off) or an
alarm contact of the superordinated system.
In case the connection between Pin 2 and Pin 3 is interrupted by opening
the contact ‚AK‘, a complete shutdown of the circulating pump and heater
is effected, and the unit enters the condition „E OFF“.
As long as the contact remains open, line 4 of the LCD DIALOGDISPLAY flashes and displays the message „STAND-BY“.
If the contact is reclosed, the instrument returns to the standby state and
„ E OFF „ is displayed. Press
to start.
Additional tips for using the STANDBY input:
The standby function can be used in conjunction with the AUTOSTART
feature (see page 33).
1. If the Autostart function is NOT turned ON, the standby input is used
as described above.
2. If the Autostart function is enabled, the instrument will revert back to
the original method of entering the setpoint (i.e. keypad, RS232,
Analog input, etc.).
Entering the setpoint with the keypad.
As described above, a bipolar shut-down is accompanied by the
„STAND-BY“ display and the OFF state. The programmable controller
starts again when the contact is reclosed. The temperature of the
bath fluid changed during the STAND-BY state.
Entering the setpoint with the programmer
display „STAND-BY“ appears. The setpoint value and the time are
both held at the current value. The temperature of the bath fluid will
be held constant at this temperature. The programmer continues once
the contact is reclosed.

1. Check the interface parameters for both interfaces (on Cryo-Compact
Circulator and PC) and make sure they match.
In the menu >Interface< set the menu item >Type< to >RS232< or
>RS485<.( Serial interface see page 58)
2. In the menu >Configuration< set the menu item >Setpoint< to >RS232<
or >RS485<.
(>Configuration< see page 32)
3. Connect both units with an interface cable..
Like all parameters which can be entered through the keypad, interface
parameters are stored in memory even after the Cryo-Compact Circulator
is turned off.
11.2. Communication with a PC or a superordinated data system
If the Cryo-Compact Circulator is put into remote control mode via the configuration
level, the VFD COMFORT-DISPLAY will read „R -OFF-„ = REMOTE STOP. The
Cryo-Compact Circulator is now operated via the computer.
In general, the computer (master) sends commands to the Cryo-Compact Circulator
(slave). The Cryo-Compact Circulator sends data (including error messages) only
when the computer sends a query.
In remote control mode: After a power interruption the order to start and all values
which have to be adjusted must be resent from the personal computer via the
interface.
AUTOSTART is not possible.

Important times for a command transmission:
To ensure a safe data transfer, the time gap between two commands should be at
least 250 ms.
The Cryo-Compact Circulator automatically responds to an in command with a data
string followed by a LF (Line Feed). The next command should only be sent after
10 ms.
Cryo-Compact Circulators
The commands are divided into in or out commands.
in commands: asking for parameters to be displayed
out commands: setting parameters
The out commands are valid only in remote control mode.
Examples:
When the RS485 interface is used, the three-digit instrument address stands in front
of each command.
(example: address Ad32 = A032)
Command to set the working temperature >Setpoint1< to 55.5 °C
out_sp_00 55.5
A032_out_sp_00 55.5

Response from the Cryo-Compact Circulator :
55.5 LF
A032_55.5 LF
Notice: out-commands
Temperature values can be displayed on the Cryo-Compact Circulator in °C or °F.
The settings sent via the interface must also be made in the selected unit according
to this setting.

JULABO Cryo-Compact Circulator s of the HighTech series are
equipped with a so-called black box. This box is implemented in
the controller and records all significant data for the last 30
minutes.
In case of a failure, this data can be read out from the unit by
using special software. The respective program is available for
free download from www.julabo.de
Installation is easy and carried out step by step.
Please observe the instructions.
Data read-out is possible in the conditions
„OFF“, „R OFF“ or „ALARM“.
Connect the Cryo-Compact Circulator to the computer using
an interface cable.
Start the EasyBlackBox program.
The program asks for the used port (COM1, ......) and the baud
rate of the unit.
You do not have this information on hand? Simply try it out!
The program keeps on sending this request until the actually
used port and correct baud rate are entered.
Data is read out and shown on the monitor
divided in the sections
>Einstellungen/Settings<,
>Alarmspeicher/Alarms stored<,
>Blackbox<
see example
After pressing >Speichern/Save< a text file is
compiled. The program proposes a filename >C:\model description and barcode no.<.
Modifications are possible.
