Unique Features:
Service Call Saver - Post Defrost Indicator
To eliminate unnecessary service calls, the KE2 Low Temp alerts the user
when it is coming out of a defrost cycle using the onboard display. The
display alternates between dEF and the actual temperature measured
by the air sensor. This continues until the temperature reaches setpoint,
or for the amount of time set by dFt (Defrost Time) whichever is shorter.
Remote Monitoring, Control, Alarm Notifications
The KE2 Low Temp includes RS-485 Modbus communications, and can
now be accessed remotely using the KE2 Local Area Dashboard and
Alarms (KE2 LDA). See page 14 for additional details.
Additional Inputs -
e.g. Door switch and additional sensors
