ECD-000 Display Unit Power Supply From EC3-751 via connecting cable Display The EC3-751 condenser controller is a digital controller for air cooled condensers. The condenser may consist of up to 6 fans, one of which is continuously speed controlled. The control target is to maintain the condensing pressure at a defined value by varying the available fan capacity. LED indicators Temp & Humidity Protection class Connecting cable 2-digit red LED with decimal point reversible between C and F Controller 1, Controller 2, p bar, Alarm, IR status Identical to EC3-751 specifications above IP65 (front protection with gasket) ECC-N10 (1m), ECC-N30 (3m), ECC-N50 (5m) or CAT5 cable with RJ45 connectors

Mounting The EC3-751 can be mounted onto a standard DIN rail.

For the measurement of the condensing pressure, a PT4 pressure sensor (3) with 4 20 mA interface can be connected to the controller. The condenser controller has eight relay outputs, six to command the fans (7), one for the heat recovery solenoid (9) and one for General Alarm. Eight digital inputs for 24V AC/DC or 230V AC are available, six for fan serial alarm (4), one for high pressure alarm (5) and one for heat recovery demand (6). The first fan (8) can be continuously speed controlled by the analogue output 0 to 10V with an ALCO FSP Fan Speed Controller or directly with the onboard TRIAC. The fan power supply must be connected to the Triac. To meet the EMC compliance in this case, an external filter must be fitted. Two analogue inputs (1) can be used to measure a control temperature and the ambient temperature. A 420mA input (2) is reserved for the relative humidity sensor. The optional ECD-000 Display Unit can be connected to the EC3-751 for local display of control parameters and for controller setup without the use of a PC. Because the EC3-751 is fully functional without display unit the ECD-000 may be removed at any time.

The ECD-000 can be mounted in panels with a 71x29 mm cutout. See dimensional drawing below for space requirements including rear connectors. Push controller into panel cutout. (1) Make sure that mounting lugs are flush with outside of controller housing Insert allen key into front panel holes and turn clockwise. Mounting lugs will turn and gradually move towards panel (2) Turn allen key until mounting lug barely touches panel. Then move other mounting lug to the same position (3) Tighten both sides very carefully until display is secured. Do not over tighten as mounting lugs will break easily.

Safety instructions: Read installation instructions thoroughly. Failure to comply can result in device failure, system damage or personal injury. It is intended for use by persons having the appropriate knowledge and skill. Ensure electrical ratings per technical data are not exceeded. Disconnect all voltages from system before installation. Keep temperatures within nominal limits. Comply with local electrical regulations when wiring

EC3-751 Condenser Controller with LON Interface


Operating Instructions Electrical Installation Refer to the electrical wiring diagram (below) for electrical connections. A copy of this diagram is labeled on the controller. Use connection wires/cables suitable for 90C operation (EN 60730-1). Ground the metal housing with a 6.3mm spade connector. Important: Keep controller and sensor wiring well separated from mains wiring. Minimum recommended distance 30mm.. Warning: Use a class II category transformer for 24VAC power supply (EN 60742). Do not ground the 24VAC lines. We recommend to use one transformer per EC3 controller and to use separate transformers for 3rd party controllers, to avoid possible interference or grounding problems in the power supply. Connecting any EC3 inputs to mains voltage will permanently damage the EC3. Setup and Parameter Modification Using the Keypad of the ECD-000 For convenience, an infrared receiver for the optional IR remote control unit is build-in, enabling quick and easy modification of the system parameters when a computer interface is not available. Alternatively, the parameters can be accessed via the 4-button keypad. The configuration parameters are protected by a numerical password. The default password is 12. To select the parameter configuration: Press the PRG button for more than 5 seconds A flashing 0 is displayed Press or until 12 is displayed; (password) Press SEL to confirm password The first modifiable parameter code is displayed (/1). To modify parameters see Parameters modification below. Parameter Modification: Procedure Press or to show the code of the parameter that has to be changed; Press SEL to display the selected parameter value; Press or to increase or decrease the value; Press SEL to temporarily confirm the new value and display its code; Repeat the procedure from the beginning "press or to show..." To exit and save the new settings: Press PRG to confirm the new values and exit the parameters modification procedure. To exit without modifying any parameter: Do not press any button for at least 60 seconds (TIME OUT). Press ESC on IR remote control. Neuron Id / Service Pin: The service pin is available on ECD display and on the controller. It is only needed, when using controller in a LON network. Display:

Special Functions: The Clear Alarm function has been replaced by the Special Functions mode. The Special Functions can be activated by: Press and together for more than 5 seconds. A flashing 0 is displayed. Press or until the password is displayed (default = 12). If password was changed, select the new password. Press SEL to confirm password A 0 is displayed and the Special Function mode is activated. Press or to select the function. The number of special functions is dynamic and controller dependent. See list below. Press SEL to activate the function without leaving the special function mode. Press PRG to activate the function and leave the special function mode. Most of the Special Functions work in a toggle mode, the first call activates the function, and the second call deactivates the function. The indication of the function can only be displayed after exiting the special function mode. 0: Display test function 1: Resets all parameters to the factory default setting. The controller will indicate oF during the reset. Display of Data: The data to be permanently shown on the display can be selected by the user (parameter /1). In case of an alarm, the alarm code is displayed alternately with the selected data. The user can inhibit the alarm code. It is possible to temporarily display these values. This is a useful feature when initially setting-up the system without the aid of the WebPages. Press the SEL button to scroll through all possible displayable data.. The display will show for one second the numerical identifier of the data (see /1 parameter) and then the selected data. After two minutes the display will return to the by parameter /1 selected data. This action is only valid when parameter H2 = 3 IR LED Fan 1 On Fan 7 On Controller LED Service LED Press.

Controller: There is a small hole left of the network connector. Use a small pen or screwdriver to press the switch behind the hole. An LED close to the switch will light to indicate the transmission of the Neuron ID.

Load Default Parameters: Use a small pen or screwdriver to press the service pin switch on the controller and switch on the power supply on. The EC3-751 will be reset to its default settings.

After this delay the controller restart automatically. The condenser controller is disabled (with object status or with the network variable nviContEnable). N.B. When cleaning the display use damp cloth and neutral detergent. Visualising Data: LON Monitoring Server The EC3-751 has a LON communication interface enabling the controller to be directly connected to a Monitoring Server or a LON network. Neuron ID / Service PIN: The service pin is available on the ECD display. It is used to identify the controller in a LON network. Press the button for app. 1 second to send the Neuron ID. The LED in the left upper corner will indicate the transmission of the Neuron ID. The default settings may be modified remotely from the Monitoring Server via the LON network. Consult the EMS__64074 user manual for more information. It is also possible to display live graphical data on the server or to log data containing the control temperature at defined intervals.
