CLEANING PROCEDURE
Wipe down the exterior of the freezer with a soft cloth and/or general spray type polish. Do not use corrosive cleaners/chemicals on the exterior.
If frost builds up in the chamber, a bucket and ice-scraper can be used to remove ice. If excessive ice builds up, the unit can be defrosted (see below).

DEFROST PROCEDURE

  1. Remove any product in the freezer, and temporarily store it in a back-up freezer or elsewhere.

  2. Unplug the freezer, and fully open the freezer front door I lid.
    ATTENTION
    FOR UPRIGHT UNITS, IT IS IMPORTANT TO PROTECT THE CONTROL FROM DRIPPING WATER. PLACE A CLOTH OR TOWEL ON THE LEADING EDGE OF THE COOLING CHAMBER ABOVE THE CONTROL TO DEFLECT / ABSORB WATER THAT COULD DRAIN ONTO THE CONTROL.

  3. Air out the freezer, allowing the unit to reach room temperature for at least 12 hours. Using fans to blow air into the unit is recommended.

  4. Take a rag and wipe up all the excess water in the unit (melted frost).

  5. Close the unit, and plug the unit in to activate the start-up process.
    PLEASE CONSULT THE START-UP INSTRUCTIONS ON PAGE 1 FOR UNIT STARTUP

  6. Once the desired temperature is reached, you may slowly begin to add your product back into the unit.

ATTENTION
IT IS RECOMMENDED TO SLOWLY RE-ADD YOUR PRODUCT INTO THE FREEZER TO PREVENT AN EXTREME LOAD ON THE COMPRESSORS, WHICH COULD SHORTEN FREEZER LIFE EXPECTANCY.

CLEANING AIR CONDENSER
Large amounts of dust build-up on the air-cooled condenser can cause excess stress for the refrigeration system. This excess stress may increase the chance of a refrigeration issue and reduce the life expectancy of the refrigeration system.

ATTENTION
IT IS RECOMMENDED TO CLEAN THE CONDENSER AT LEAST ONCE EVERY 90 DAYS TO PREVENT DUST BUILDUP.

  1. Using a Philips Head screwdriver, remove the screws for grill located on front of unit. Once the screws are removed, the front grill can be removed allowing easy access to the air cooled condenser.
    Note: It is recommended to keep the screws in a safe location, so they can be used to re-attach the grill once cleaning is completed.

  2. Use a vacuum cleaner to pull up any dust built up on the condenser fins.
    The most efficient method of doing this is using a furniture cleaning attachment (if available).
    Note: Cans of compressed air can also be used to blow away dust, however this is not the most recommended way to clean the condenser; as the dust may float through the air and eventually return to clog up the condenser.

  3. Once clean, re-align the front grill and attach it using a screwdriver.

  • Calibrate the controller to meet a user reference standard.
  • Match the calibration of the controller to that of a particular transducer or sensor input.
  • Calibrate the controller to suit the characteristics of a particular installation.
  • remove long term drift in the factory set calibration.

TO CALIBRATE THE CONTROLLER FOLLOW THE BELOW STEPS

SO-LOW-U40-Ultra-Low-Freezer-13

CAUTION
INCORRECT MODIFICATION OF THESE VALUES CAN RESULT IN MALFUNCTION OR UNEXPECTED OPERATION OF THE UNIT, AND MAY VOID THE WARRANTY OF THE UNIT.

ALARM DIFFERENTIAL

The alarm type for relay output 2 (AL1) is pre-configured for deviation band. This means that the alarm deviation set point (A1DV) follows the control set point evenly above and below the main control set point. The alarm hysteresis (A1HY) is safe sided. The alarm relay’s output will operate in the following manner. For example, the main control set point is -40° (F or C), the alarm deviation set point (A1DV) is 12° and the alarm hysteresis value (A1HY) is 0.1. The alarm relay’s output will be energized when the temperature is outside of the deviation alarm band (below -52° or above -28°). The alarm relay will de- energize when the temperature falls within the hysteresis band (between -51.9° and -28.1°). When the alarm relay’s output is energized, the alarm output status indicator (labeled AL1 on the front panel) will be illuminated. To change the alarm set point and hysteresis values, enter the Setup menu and access the alarm parameters as follows:

SO-LOW-U40-Ultra-Low-Freezer-13

CONTROL HYSTERESIS
The control type for relay output 1 is pre-configured for cooling (direct action). The control hysteresis (prompt 01HY) is safe-sided. The control relay’s output will operate in the following manner. For example, the set point is -40° (F or C), and the control hysteresis value is 2.0. The control relay’s output will be energized until the temperature reached -42° and then de-energize. When the temperature rises to -40° or above, the control relay’s output is energized. When the control relay’s output is energized, the control output status indicator (labeled OUT1 on the front panel) will be illuminated. To change the control hysteresis, enter the Setup menu and access the output parameters as follows:

SO-LOW-U40-Ultra-Low-Freezer-14

POWER STATUS ALARM INDICATORS
The FDC-C42 events inputs 1 and 2 and alarm outputs 2 and 3 are pre-configured to act as power supply status alarms. Event input 1 and alarm output 2 (AL2) are utilized to indicate a power failure. Under normal operation, event input 1 will be activated indicating power is present. When main power is lost, event input 1 will deactivate, and in turn cause alarm 2 relay output to energize. When the alarm relay’s output is energized, the alarm output status indicator (labeled AL2 on the front panel) will be illuminated. Event input 2 and alarm output 2 (AL3) are utilized to indicate low battery. Under normal operation, event input 2 will be deactivated. When the battery is low, event input 2 will be activated and in turn cause alarm 3 relay output to energize. When the alarm relay’s output is energized, the alarm output status indicator (labeled AL3 on the front panel) will be illuminated.

ALARM DIAGRAM

Connection to the alarm relays and audible alarm require external control relays that are not part of the control assembly. One relay is utilized to provide remote contacts for customer connection for remote alarm indication (shown as CR1 in the following diagram) and is optional. The other relay is utilized for the audible alarm silence (shown as CR2 in the following diagram) which is required.

SO-LOW-U40-Ultra-Low-Freezer-13

Note that alarm 3 (low battery) is utilized for indication only. When an alarm relay is energized, the corresponding alarm indicator, AL1 for alarm 1 (temperature), AL2 for alarm 2 (power failure) or AL3 for alarm 3 (low battery), will be illuminated on the upper left of the C42 LCD display. When either a high/low temperature or power failure alarm activates, the audible alarm will sound as power from the alarm contact will pass through the normally closed contact of relay CR2. When the silence button is pressed, the coil of relay CR2 will be energized. Since the normally open contact of CR2 will then close, power will pass through the relay contact and will in turn hold the relay coil energized even after the push-button is released.
This will hold the normally closed contact of the relay open, removing power from the audible alarm so that it will no longer sound. Once both alarm conditions are no longer present, both alarm 1 and alarm 2 outputs of the C42 will be de-energized. This will in turn remove power from the coil of relay CR2 causing it to de-energize. This will then ensure that upon the next activation of either the temperature or power failure alarm output, power will again pass to the audible alarm causing it to sound until the alarm condition clears or the operator presses the silence button.
