Location
Surveillant Evaporator Control was developed with ease of in­stallation in mind. The controller is supplied in an enclosure, with encapsulated electronics to protect the circuitry from moisture damage. This extra level of protection allows the con­troller to be installed in the refrigerated space.
When installing the controller, it may either be mounted on an interior/exterior wall or on the evaporator. Many evapora­tors have su cient space to install the controller on the face of evaporator or on its housing. Locating the controller as close to the evaporator as possible reduces the amount of wiring when converting existing systems, as well as when it is applied on new applications.
Alternatively, users may  nd it bene cial to install the controller in a location providing easy access -- on the wall or near the en­trance. This enables the user to easily view the display, and elim­inates the need to use a ladder or lift to modify the setpoints or check alarms.
If viewing the temperature outside the walk-in or refrigerated room is desirable, Surveillant may be used as a digital thermo­stat. The controller is then installed near the door of the space

for easy viewing of the room temperature and/or system status. See Figure 1 for locations.
If installing the controller on the face of the evaporator, preexist­ing knockouts on the evaporator should be used for installing the high voltage wiring. If knockouts do not preexist, hole(s) may be carefully cut into an unobstructed area of the evapora­tor case. If modifying the face of the evaporator is not feasible or desired, the controller’s conduit knockouts may be used with ½ inch conduit.
The bottom side of the controller includes a cutout with cable tie slots providing a strain relief for the low voltage and sensor wires. Additional knockouts are available on either side if con­duit is preferred.
Installation & Wiring
The Surveillant Evaporator Control is supplied with pluggable connectors for all connections. Pluggable connectors permit the controller to be placed in a safe location while the wiring is installed. They also simplify the wiring, allowing the wires to be fastened to the screw terminals in the open air. Once all wiring is completed using accepted wiring practices, it is plugged into the controller prior to  nal mounting.
Although there is one pressure transducer and four tempera­ture sensor inputs, when used with mechanical valves (TEVs), Surveillant only requires the (3) sensors supplied with the kit. One sensor reads the return air temperature and the other two measure the coil temperature. NOTE! Sensor location is critical
to the proper operation of the controller.
Return Air Temperature Sensor - The air temperature sensor is
installed in the return air of the evaporator using the included sensor mount. Most applications allow the sensor mount to be installed using an existing screw. On evaporators where us­ing an existing screw is not possible, the included self-tapping screw may be used to secure the sensor mount to the evapora­tor. Note: Be careful to avoid damage to an evaporator tube or causing a leak in the drip pan. When installing, it is impor­tant to prevent the air sensor from coming into contact with the mounting bracket, cable ties, or any other solid material. Figure 2 shows an example of how to mount the sensor. The sensor must be a minimum of 6 inches from the coil surface.

Installation Instructions
After the sensor is installed, route the wire back to the control­ler location. When routing sensor wire, it is important to avoid interference from high voltage lines. If sensor wire is run parallel to the high voltage, there is a potential for inductance to a ect the sensor reading. This is of particular concern with long wire runs. When extending sensors, use the 18 gage, shielded twist­ed pair. Sensor wires can be run beyond 100 feet when using 18 gage twisted shielded pair. After the wire has been successfully routed, it may be connected to the pluggable terminal on the controller.
Coil Temperature Sensor - A ler, it is essential the sensor is located at the coldest point on the evaporator coil for optimal operation. The coil sensor is an integral part of the control algorithm used to determine coil ef­ ciency, to initialize defrosts, and to terminate defrosts.

Determine the coil sensor location
To determine the most appropriate sensor location, when arriving on site, put the system into defrost. The location where frost is last to disappear is where the coil sensor should be placed. Monitor both the air entering side, as well as
the air exiting side, of the evaporator coil. Don’t be surprised if the last place for frost to disappear is on the air exiting side. It is usually near the right or left end of the coil.
Steps to Ensure Proper Coil Sensor Location
For more robust installations, it is recommended that two coil sensors are used, located as described above. Typically the cold­est spot is on the side of the suction header/expansion valve side of the evaporator. Select two places that are the last to de­frost, preferably at each end of the evaporator.

1-1/2” from end, in the bottom third of coil
Figure 4 - Sensor Positioned to Touch Two Circuit Tubes
More often than not on coils, the location of the sensor is a short distance from the end, approximately 1 to 1-1/2” away from the right and left edges of the active coil surface. The ice tends to grow from these edges towards the center. Therefore, the sen­sor location is best situated approximately 1 to 1-1/2” from the outer edges and typically near the bottom 1/3rd portion of the evaporator. The sensor needs to be as far away from the defrost heat sources as possible. See Figure 3.
Locating the sensor too close to the elements will cause false defrost termination temperatures. It is important to note, the most active portion of the sensor is the  rst 1/2” of the 1-1/2” long stainless steel probe. As a result, it is important to touch two circuit tubes. When inserting the sensor into the coil, the tip should touch one of the circuit tubes. This location is appropri­ate for the sensor. Figure 4 shows the proper sensor position.
When choosing the location, the sensor should not be located adjacent to the electric heating elements. The sensor should be approximately half the distance between the heaters if possible. Insert the probe into the  ns approximately 1/16” deeper than the stainless shielding of the probe. Pinch the two  ns gently together to secure the sensor in place. This provides the thermal ballast to ensure a complete defrost every time. See Figure 5.

It is important to verify all heating elements are working properly.
Due to the many factors in uencing the evaporator perfor­mance, it is impossible to provide the proper location of every installation. However, the coil sensor is an integral part of the control algorithm used to determine coil e ciency to initiate, as well as, terminate defrosts. The coldest point in the coil can be identi ed from existing system knowledge or by monitoring the normal operation.
Controller Power - The high voltage wiring is protected by a metal shield fastened to the back side of the controller. The shield should be removed to gain access to the wiring connec­tions, making note of the location of the fasteners. The screws in the upper corners are coarse thread screws, while the screw in the middle is a 4-40 machine screw.
The controller accepts either 120V or 208/240V incoming power. The controller includes metal oxide varistors (MOVs), providing protection from voltage spikes. MOVs use the same technology commonly applied to protect consumer electronics. They func­tion by  ltering out voltages high enough to damage the board. When the voltage exceeds the allowed amount, the MOVs short to ground, protecting the circuitry. For additional protection, the board has a replaceable BK/MDL-1/4 fuse in line. The grey plug is accessible without removing the metal shield in the fuse holder. Depress slightly and turn 1/4 turn counterclockwise to remove. Replace by depressing slightly and turning 1/4 turn clockwise. Do not overtighten.
The board uses a pluggable screw terminal connector to con­nect incoming power. The terminal is located in the top right corner of the controller when the terminals are facing the user. See Figure 6.
Fan and Defrost Relays - There are 2 larger relays on the con­troller with spade connectors. These are used for the evaporator fans and defrost heaters. Due to the spacing of the enclosure the spades require a 90 degree terminal. Spade connectors (4) are included to assist in wiring the relays.
Compressor/Liquid Line Solenoid Relay - The compressor re­lay is rated at 3A inductive at 240V. This relay uses the 3-position pluggable screw terminal to make the connection to the board. The relay is not intended to control the compressor directly. It is designed to be used to control the liquid line solenoid or as a pi­lot to the compressor contactor. One leg of the incoming power supply (L1) should be connected to COM terminal of the com­pressor relay, the upper of the two smaller relays. The remaining leg, (L2), should be connected to one lead on the solenoid/com­pressor contactor. The remaining lead, should be connected to the normally open (NO) position on the terminal.
Auxiliary Relay - The auxiliary relay is rated at 3A inductive at 240V. This relay uses the 3-position pluggable screw terminal to make the connection to the board. The relay may be con­nected to a variety of devices. One leg of the incoming power supply (L1) should be connected to COM terminal of the auxil­iary relay, the lower of the two smaller relays. The remaining leg, (L2), should be attached to one lead on the connected device. The remaining alarm lead, should be connected to the normally open (NO) position on the terminal.
After all high voltage wiring is completed the metal shield must be replaced and screws tightened.
Additional Inputs
Suction Temperature Sensor (T1 Auxiliary) - The suction tem-
perature sensor is required when applying the controller with an electronic expansion valve. The sensor’s proximity to the evaporator outlet di ers slightly for electronically controlled valves from the placement of a TEV bulb. Due to the more re­ ned control from an electronically controlled valve, the sen­sor must be placed as close to the outlet of the coil as feasible. Although the distance from the outlet is di erent, the nature of the refrigerant’s  ow through the tube remains unchanged, thus the orientation of the sensor remains at the 4 or 8 o’clock position. The sensor should be secured to the suction line using the included wire ties designed for low ambient operation. In addition to being con gured as a suction sensor, the T1 input may also be con gured like the auxiliary sensor.
Evaporator Fan Relay - The fan relay is rated 10A inductive at 240V. One leg of the incoming power (L1) for the fans should be connected to the COM terminal of the fan relay, the upper of the two larger relays. The remaining leg, (L2) should be con­nected to one lead of the fan. The remaining fan lead should be connected to the NO (Normally Open) terminal on the fan relay. See Figure 8.
Defrost Heater Relay - The heater relay is rated 20A resistive at 240V. One leg of the incoming power (L1) for the heaters should be connected to the COM terminal of the heater relay, the lower of the two larger relays. The remaining leg, (L2) should be connected to one lead of the heater. The remaining heater lead should be connected to the NO (Normally Open) terminal on the heater relay.
Pressure Transducer - In addition to the suction temperature sensor, a pressure transducer is also required for superheat measurement when applying a Hybrid Stepper Valve (HSV). The pressure tap should be mounted on the top of a horizontal sec­tion of tube. It should be located near the suction sensor, ap­proximately 3 inches downstream from the position of the tem­perature sensor.
Auxiliary Temperature Sensor -The auxiliary temperature sen­sor provides  exibility and may be used for any purpose desired by the user. The placement of the sensor is dependent on the requirements of the user’s intended application. The Auxiliary Temperature sensor must be supplied by HTPG.
Digital Inputs - The controller includes (3) digital inputs. See Table 3 for con guration options.
