Unpacking the unit and conditions of use

Before and when unpacking the unit, make a visual inspection to identify any possible damage which may have occurred during transportation. Please look for loose parts, dents, scratches, etc. Report any damage immediately to the freight company. (Please see “Conditions if damage has occurred”.) In other instances, the latest edition of the “General conditions for the supply of goods and services” issued by the ZVEI (German Central Association for the Electrotechnical Industry) shall apply. Before disposing of the packaging, please check it for loose functional parts and information leaflets. So that we can process warranty claims, please give an exact description of the defect (with a photograph, if appropriate) and state the model designation of the unit. Please keep these operating instructions at the place where the equipment is used.

General instructions

Work on the electrical devices and switching equipment may only be carried out by appropriately qualified personnel. The relevant safety and environmental regulations must be followed.
FLICA equipment is free from PCBs, PCTs, asbestos, formaldehyde, cadmium, and water-repelling substances. The design of the equipment has taken into account the Standards EN 50081-1,2 (emitted interference), EN 50082-1 (immunity to interference), EN 60335-1 (electrical safety), IEC 695-2-1 to -2-3 (fire resistance, glow-wire test). Safety tests have been performed in the factory on all equipment in accordance with EN 60335-1 (DIN VDE 0700 T500).

Use and function

Use for the purpose intended

• This controller is designed to control ambient temperatures or media temperatures in refrigeration or heating systems.
• The controller must not be used as a safety cut-out device or an excess temperature limiter.

If the unit is used for purposes other than those stated here, it shall not be considered to be used for the purpose intended.

• Only connect sensors supplied with the unit. If a replacement sensor is required, only use sensors of the same type (Part No. H61007 ).
• The controller is not intended for use in vehicles because of the possible operating voltage ranges, interference levels, and environmental
  operating exceed the limits for which the controller can be used.
• Please take the application limits into account (see Technical Data in section 11). 3.2 Function
• PCR-100 and PCR-110 are general-purpose thermostats, each with a relay output and wide temperature control range (–55 °C to +50 °C).
• The controllers have different housings:
  • PCR-100: Modular housing for 35 mm standard rails
  • PCR-110: “Snap-in” installation housing, which fits into the aperture 28.5 x 70.5 mm.
  • Control performance: 2-step, on/off, with reversible direction for heating and refrigerating.
• Defrost option for chilling systems if the continuous operation of the evaporator fan is foreseen in the switching box.
• Easy to operate thanks to the digital input of setpoint value and switching difference.
• Data is not lost, even if there is a power failure, for at least 10 years.
• Alarm output.

Safety

Sources of danger

• Caution – Mains voltage!
• Never expose the unit to water or moisture. Risk of malfunction and short circuit. Only use the unit when it is adjusted to normal ambient temperature (+15 to. +30 °C). Extreme changes in temperature in combination with high atmospheric humidity may lead to the formation of condensed water.
• Even if the control circuit is switched off, high voltage may still be applied to the controller. For this reason, isolate all electric circuits before starting any service work.
• Never expose the unit to excessive heat, dust, and vibrations.
• Avoid knocks and pressure loads. If the housing is damaged, there is a risk of an electric shock causing death or injury.
• If the unit cannot be operated without the risk of danger, it must be taken out of service and precautions taken so that it cannot be switched on again unintentionally.
• This applies, in particular, if:
  • the housing has damage that is visible,
  • the unit is no longer operational or
  • it has been stored for a long time in unfavorable conditions.
• The unit must not be opened. If it is thought that the unit may be defective, send it back to the dealer or manufacturer with a precise description of the fault.

Safety precautions

• All electromagnetic loads (solenoid valves, contactors, horns, motors) should be interference suppressed directly at the coil with RC elements.
• Please note the maximum contact rating of the relays and terminals.
• if this is not observed, there is a risk that the contacts may pit or stick, with the result that the refrigeration system will not operate correctly and the refrigerated items may be damaged.
• Sensor leads are to be routed separately from mains voltage wires: the clearance should be at least 5 cm.
• Sensor leads must not be routed in multiple cables with other leads carrying mains voltage, otherwise, the system may malfunction.
• Tighten the terminals carefully; excessive strain will result in damage to the controller.

Installation and commissioning

Mechanical installation

• 4 DIN Standard modular housings to be mounted on a standard rail:
  • housing with 2 mounting tabs:
  • Open out the side mounting tabs; clip the unit onto the 35 mm rail and press the tabs in again.
  • housings with 1 mounting tab:
  • Put housing on the upper 35 mm rail. Clip the unit on the 35 mm rail, and the lower tab clips on the rail automatically.
  • To remove the unit from the rail press the lower mounting tab screwdriver, and lift the unit.
• Snap-in housings:
  • Fit the unit in an aperture 28,5 x 70,5 mm and secure it with the relevant mounting frame.
  • housings with terminal box cover-plate (max. wall thickness 22 mm)
• housings without terminal box cover plate (max. wall thickness 18 mm) for walls thicker than 10 mm: remove lateral plastic spacers from the mounting frame. For the final fixing of the unit, the side screws have to be tightened carefully.
• Use a cable clamp to secure sensor T1 in a suitable position.

Electrical installation

CAUTION: The mains voltage and system frequency must be the same as the nominal values on the device’s rating plate. Work on electrical systems must be performed by qualified personnel. Relevant local safety regulations must be observed

Wiring diagram

Instructions

• For PCR-110 the total current via terminal 5 of the common relay connection must not exceed 10 A.
• Pay attention to the contact loading of the relay (8A/5A resistive load, 2A/1A inductive load). As a general rule, contractors are recommended.
• The maximum tested sensor cable length is 50 m, with a minimum cross-section of 2 x 0.75 mm2. Solder the extension cable to the sensor cable to prevent contact resistance.
• It is advisable to use shielded sensor extension cables. All shields must be routed at the side of the controller to one earth/protective potential. The extension cable shield must not be connected on the sensor side, otherwise bonding currents may occur via the shielding.
• The controllers are designed to respect the highest degree of immunity to interference. If the local interference level exceeds the immunity data might get lost (AL1 in the display) and the controllers switches to the preprogrammed setting values. This is not a malfunction of the controller. In such cases, the means to suppress interference has to be improved (RC elements, shielded lines)

Operation of the controller

Front view of the controller

Switching on the operating voltage
The controller is started by means of a control switch provided by the customer. The first time the controller is started, pre-programmed setting values are used which at a later point can be adapted for individual requirements.

If an alarm “AL 2” (temperature in the refrigerated chamber too high or too low) is displayed when the controller is switched on, this can be cleared by pressing the key.

Display
During normal operation, the current cold store temperature is displayed. It is measured with a cold store sensor T1. In the event of an alarm, the most recent alarm message (e.g. AL1)
and the cold store temperature is displayed alternately. Two spot indicators show the switching status of the relays during operation:

• Pos. 1: On Relay on.
  Off: Relay off.
• Flashes: Start-up delay E03 active.
• Pos. 3: On Defrost interval is active – relay de-energized

Functions of keys
Never operate the keys with sharp objects (screwdriver or similar).

Display of setpoint value	Press and hold down the key.
Clear alarm messages	Press  key. (If the sensor is faulty, switch the mains voltage ON/OFF).
Manual defrost initiation	Press the key for 5 secs.
Display of time until the next defrost	Press  and   keys in sequence and hold both down. (Display in hours and minutes).
Display limit value for excess temperature (cold store sensor T1)	Press  key.

• Input values are always changed using the or key with the key held down.
• Input parameters, e.g. the switching difference is shown as “E” with a 2-digit number, e.g. “E 01”.
• Access to the programming level is by pressing the key at the same time for 5 seconds.
• The parameters to be changed can then be accessed by pressing the and keys.
• To exit from the programming level and save the data, press the key after the last input parameter. If no key is pressed in the programming level for 10 minutes, this mode will be exited without the data being saved.
• Do not display altered parameter data before saving the data, as it would be reversed to its original value in the process.

Setting the cold store temperature
Press and hold down the key. Adjust the setpoint on the value in question using the or key. Adjustment is possible within the limits of the input parameters E01 and E02. The factory setting is +4°C.

Manual defrost
Press and hold down the key for 5 seconds. The manual defrosting process will be initiated by forcibly de-energizing the relay. If parameter E09 is set to 0: no defrosting will be started.

Programming

Access to the programming level:

• Press and hold down firmly the keys at the same time for approx. 5 seconds. (E00 appears on display.)
• Use or key to select parameters.
• Setting: Press and hold down the key. Adjust the setpoint value to the desired figure using the or key.
• Do not display altered parameter data before saving the data, as it would be reversed to its original value in the process.

Input parameters and input ranges

E00	Cold store temperature difference	1 to 20 K	2 K
E01	Min. permissible cold store temp.	–55 °C to E02	–55 °C
E02	Max. permissible cold store temp.	E01 to +50 °C	+50 °C
E03	Delay time, relay energizing	0 to 15 mins.	5 mins.
E04	Alarm temperature difference	–50 K to +50 K	20 K

• If the set temperature difference E04 is negative, an alarm is given if it is too cold in the refrigerated area, e.g. E04 = –10 K, cold store setpoint value = 18°C alarm at –28 °C in refrigerated
• If the set temperature difference E04 is positive, the alarm is given if it is too warm in the refrigerated area, e.g. E04 = +10 K, cold store setpoint value = –18°C alarm at –8°C in refrigerated

Attention: any change of cold store set point value changes also the alarm temperature. If E04 is set to 0, no alarm will be given.

E05	Alarm delay time	0 to 99 mins.	10 mins.
E06	Sensor calibration T1	–5 to +5 K	0 K
E07	Mode selection	1 = Cooling, 2 = Heatin	1

• Once the controller has been switched on, defrosting occurs for the first time at the end of the first time interval.
• After defrosting has been initiated manually, the next time defrosting takes place is after a complete-time interval has elapsed
• If the time interval between two defrosts cycles is changed when the system is in operation, the new time interval will not be applied until after the next time defrosting has occurred.

E09	Defrost time (0 = no defrosting)	0 to 99 mins.	25 mins.
E10   ☛	Max. display delay after defrosting	0 to 99 mins.	15 mins.
	During the defrosting process, the last current temperature before defrosting started is retained in the dis-play. After defrosting, the display returns to the instantaneous temperature when the stored value is reached again or, at the latest, after time E10 has elapsed.

E11	Operating of relay if sensor T1 defective	0 = Relay de-energized    1 = Relay permanently energized 2 = On/off in sequence, according to the times set in E12 and E13.	2
E12	“On” time at E11	1 to 99 mins.	15 mins.
E13	“Off” time at E11	1 to 99 mins.	15 mins.

Exiting programming mode

Press the key after the last level has been entered.

 Sensor calibration (parameter E06)

The sensor can be calibrated.

Note on sensor calibration
Additional line resistance of 7 0 in each case, caused by sensor cable extension, results in a change in the temperature display by +1K.

How to proceed
Measure the temperature with a calibrated thermometer or submerge the sensor in well-mixed ice water (0 °C). Compare the measured temperature with the temperature shown on the unit display. If the measured temperature is lower than the one displayed, set the negative difference as the programming value (e.g. – 2 K). If the measured temperature is higher than the one displayed, set the positive difference as the programming value (e.g. 2K) The temperature display is then corrected by the set value.

Maintenance

The controller does not require any maintenance. It does not have any fuses so, if brief voltage spikes occur, the refrigeration system will not stop operating for a prolonged period. Once the disturbance has passed, the controller will automatically start up again. Cleaning the housing: Only a dry anti-static cloth may be used to wipe clean all plastic parts. Do not use water or cleaning agents containing solvents.

Appendix

Alarm messages

If an alarm occurs, the alarm output will be activated and on the display, a code will alternate with the cold store temperature.

Display	Meaning
AL1	Data lost from program memory. The preset values will be used as an emergency program. The setpoint will be set to +4 °C.
AL2	Limit value (= specified value + E04) at sensor T1 exceeded and delay time E05 elapsed.
AL3	The sensor temperature is over 50 °C or below –55°C.
AL4	The specified setpoint value is outside the limits E01 and E02
AL5	Temperature sensor T1 – a short circuit of a break in the wiring. The compressor operates as a function of parameter E11

Clearing the alarm

Press the key. All alarm messages, with the exception of AL2, are also reset by switching off the operating voltage. AL2 can only be reset using the key
