Controller operation
In normal operation the controller displays cabinet temperatures
in °F (default) or user-selected °C. °C temperatures are displayed
to 1 decimal point.
A snowfl ake LED displays when the compressor is running.
The controller is pre-programmed with a 34 F set point which
provides a compressor cut-in at 38 F and cut-out at 34 F. This
may not meet your specifi c application needs. For example, many
pharmaceutical manufacturers recommend that their refrigerated
medications be stored between 36 F and 46 F. Instructions for
changing the set point are found below.
Refer to the chart below for the set point for your application’s required temperature range:
All set points have a 4 F differential (HY setting on the controller). The 4 F differential means that with a 34 F set
point, for example, the compressor will turn off at 34 F and turn on when it reaches 38 F.
Because there is still refrigerant in the evaporator, there can be an additional 1 F - 1.5 F of downward “drift” in
temperature after the compressor turns off. The temperature may momentarily display as low as 32 F (32.9 F and
below rounds down to 32 F) before beginning to rise again.
