Principles
The great advantage of this series of controllers is that it can
be extended as the size of the plant is increased. It has been
developed for refrigeration control systems, but not for any
specific application – variation is created through the read-in
software and the way you choose to define the connections.
It is the same modules that are used for each regulation and the
composition can be changed, as required. With these modules
(building blocks) it is possible to create a multitude of various
kinds of regulations. But it is you who must help adjusting the
regulation to the actual needs – these instructions will assist you
to find your way through all the questions so that the regulation
can be defined and the connections made.
Advantages
• The controller’s size can “grow” as systems grow
• The software can be set for one or more regulations
• Several regulations with the same components
• Extension-friendly when systems requirements are changed
• Flexible concept:
- Controller series with common construction
- One principle – many regulation uses
- modules are selected for the actual connection requirements
- The same modules are used from regulation to regulation
Controller
Top part
Extension modules
A regulation with few connections can
be performed with the controller module
alone
If there are many connections one or more
extension modules have to be mounted
If the system grows and more functions have to be controlled, the regulation can be
extended.
With extra modules more signals can be received and more relays cut in and out
– how many of them – and which – is determined by the relevant application.
Bottom part
The controller is the cornerstone of the regulation. The module has inputs and
outputs capable of handling small systems.
• The bottom part – and hence the terminals – are the same for all controller types.
• The top part contains the intelligence with software. This unit will vary according
to controller type. But it will always be supplied together with the bottom part.
• In addition to the software the top part is provided with connections for data
communication and address setting.
