KE2 LDA  (pn 21253)

Application:

  Designed for small to mid-sized racks - eliminates overly 

complicated controls that are designed for larger systems.

 Easily applied to new or existing installations. 

 Supports up to 5 stages of loading with onboard relays. 

 On racks with compressors all of equal HP, will automatically 

equalize runtime 

 Racks with compressors of varying HP, it maintains consis-

tent suction pressure.

  Master View webpages, allows technicians to quickly and 

easily assess the system’s operation & Review historical per-

formance using onboard data logging.

 Works as a stand-alone rack controller or in conjunction with 

KE2 Evaporator Efficiency controllers. 

 Can limit the amount of defrost load, as dictated by the site’s 

electrical requirements.

The KE2 Compressor Sequencer is new to KE2 Therm’s refrigeration con-

trols suite. Designed for small to mid-sized racks, The KE2 Compressor 

Sequencer brings the controller’s features in line with the job’s require-

ments. It eliminates the necessity of using overly complicated controls 

designed for larger systems. 
The KE2 Compressor Sequencer replaces aging rack controllers or can 

retrofit racks with existing mechanical controls. 
The controller supports up to 5 stages of loading through its onboard 

relays. Each relay can be configured as the rack’s: Fixed Speed Compres-

sor, Compressor Unloader, Digital Scroll Compressor, Master Liquid Line 

Solenoid, or Hot Gas Defrost Relay. 
When applied to racks with compressors all of equal horse power, the 

controller will automatically equalize the runtime of each compressor. 

Compressors can also be of various HP. When more than one HP is se-

lected the controller will use the stage with the smallest capacity, to 

maintain consistent suction pressure.
The KE2 Compressor Sequencer includes KE2 Therm’s Master View web-

pages, allowing technicians to quickly and easily assess the system’s 

operation, and review historical performance through onboard data 

logging.
The compressor sequencer works as a stand-alone rack controller or in 

conjunction with KE2 Evaporator Efficiency controllers. When applied 

with the KE2 Evaporator Efficiency controllers the KE2 Compressor Se-

quencer can limit the amount of defrost load, as dictated by the site’s 

electrical requirements.

Before you begin:

NOTE: 

After the controller is wired, the KE2 Compressor Sequencer is 

setup using the controller’s onboard webpage. 

To access the webpage on the controller you will need a laptop and 

Ethernet cable, or a mobile device and either the KE2 LDA communica-

tion device, or the KE2 WiFi Service Tool. (See page 3)
