WHAT IS THE USE

EC 3-110 is an ON-OFF digital thermostat studied for refrigerating systems management through

the compressor and defrost (for time) management.

In factory the instrument gets preset to accept at the measure input PTC/NTC probes used in

refrigeration field at the moment.

Some parameters permit to set the thermostat to protect the compressor against overloads

due to several starts repeated in a short time, to manage the defrost according with one’s

requirements, to signal working conditions outside the safety limits.

EC 3-110 is available in the 74 x 32 mm (2.91 x 1.25 in.) case and it is studied for panel

mounting with the equipped screw or spring brackets.

INSTALLATION

EC 3-110 was studied for panel mounting, panel cutout 71 x 29 mm (2.79 x 1.14 in.), with the

equipped screw or spring brackets (the overall dimensions and the panel cutout are related in

Fig. 3, the fixing systems suggested by the builder are related respectively in Fig. 4 and in

Fig. 5).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONS

- the panel thickness must be included from 1 to 5 mm (0.04 to 0.19 in.)

- verify if the using conditions (ambient temperature, humidity, etc.) are within the

limits indicated by the builder (see the chapter TECHNICAL DATA)

- install the instrument in a location with a suitable ventilation, to avoid the inter-

nal overheating of the instrument

- do not install the instrument near surfaces that can to obstruct the air-grating

(carpets, covers, etc.), heating sources (radiators, hot air ducts, etc.), locations

subject to direct sunlight, rain, humidity, excessive dust, mechanical vibrations

or bumps, devices with strong magnetos (microwave ovens, big speakers, etc.)

- according with the safety norms, the protection against possible contacts with

electrical parts and parts protected with functional insulation only must be ensured

through a correct installation procedure of the instrument; all parts that ensure

the protection must be fixed so that they can not be removed if not with a tool

- if not differently specified at the time of order, the instrument will be equipped

with screw brackets.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

EC 3-110 is provided with two screw terminal blocks for cables up to 2.5 mm² (0.38 in.², for the

connection to the power supply, measure input and outputs) and it is provided with one five

poles single line male connector (for the connection to the CLONE configurer/cloner and RICS

supervision systems), located on the instrument back panel (the connections to derive are

related in Fig. 6 and they are checkable on the polyester label stuck on the instrument case).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONS

- if the instrument is brought from a cold to a warm location, the humidity may

condense inside the instrument; wait about an hour before supply the instrument

- verify if the operating power supply voltage, electrical frequency and power of

the instrument correspond to the local power supply (see the chapter TECHNICAL

DATA)

- do not supply more instruments with the same transformer

- if the instrument is installed on a vehicle, its power supply must be derived di-

rectly from the battery of the vehicle

- give the instrument a protection able to limit the current absorbed in case of

failure

- the instrument remains connected to the local power supply as long as the termi-

nals 7 and 8 are derived to the local power supply, even if the instrument is appar-

ently turned off

- give the probe a protection able to insulate it against possible contacts with metal

parts or use insulated probes

- give the outputs a protection able to protect them against short circuit and

overload

- do not try to repair the instrument; for the repairs apply to highly qualified staff

- if you have any questions or problems concerning the instrument please consult

Every Control (see the chapter BUILDER DATA).

PRELIMINARY INFORMATIONS

After derived the connections related in Fig. 6, during the normal functioning the instrument

displays the temperature read by the cabinet probe.

Fig. 2

iu3120.wmf

If an alarm should be active the instrument displays the alarm code flashing and the buzzer

utters an intermittent beep as long as the cause that has given it does not disappear (see the

chapter SIGNALS AND ALARMS); pressure on the key T1 during an alarm permits to silence

the buzzer.

EC 3-110 is provided with one working setpoint and with some configuration parameters that

get stored in a non volatile memory and that permit to set the instrument according with one’s

requirements (see the chapter CONFIGURABILITY).

The output K 1 is associated to the compressor and to the working setpoint, it remains acti-

vated continuously as long as the temperature read by the cabinet probe reaches the working

setpoint and when it rises above the working setpoint of the hysteresis value (differential) the

output gets reactivated, except during a defrost and a dripping.

Passed the defrost interval from the moment of the instrument start or from the moment in

which the instrument presents a request of a defrost cycle the instrument automatically presents

the following request of a defrost cycle.

A defrost cycle provides two phases (defrost and dripping) connected in cascade since the end

of one automatically determines the passage to the following one.

The output K 2 is associated to the defrost and it remains continuously activated during the

defrost.

Passed the defrost length from the moment in which the instrument activates a derost cycle

the defrost ends and the instrument automatically moves to the dripping; if the instrument was

set to manage defrost to resistances (electrical) during a defrost the output K 1 gets forced to

the status OFF, if the instrument was set to manage hot gas defrost (reversal of cycle) during

a defrost the output K 1 remains continuously activated.

Passed the dripping length from the moment of the defrost end the defrost cycle ends; during

a dripping the output K 1 gets forced to the status OFF.

Keeping pushed the key T2 for four seconds at least or activating the remote defrost digital

input (available on request) the instrument presents a request of a defrost cycle.

WORKING SETPOINT SETTING (WORKING TEMPERATURE)

To modify the working setpoint value keep pushed the key T3 (the instrument displays the

actual value) and at the same time push and release over and over the key T1 or T2 as long as

the instrument displays the desired value (keeping pushed the key T1 or T2 the value gets

decreased or increased more quickly): after the modification release the key T3 last; during the

pressure of the key T3 the LED L1 flashes quickly to indicate that a working setpoint setting

procedure is running (to the release of the key T3 the instrument automatically turns out from

the working setpoint setting procedure).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONS

- for the whole period of a corrupted memory data alarm the access to the working

setpoint setting procedure is refused

- the working setpoint is programmable within the limits established with the param-

eters r1 and r2

- the working setpoint value gets stored in a non volatile memory even if a lack of
