PN21301 KE2 Temp Valve Control

Product Information

The KE2 Temp+Valve Control is a controller designed for
temperature air defrost and electronic valve control. It is part of
the thermsolutions KIT PN 21301. The kit includes the following
components:

A (1) KE2 Temp+ Valve controller (pn21393 – controller
only)
B (1) 10′ pressure transducer
E (4) self-tapping mounting screws
F (1) sensor zip tie
G (1) screwdriver
H (2) screws for high voltage shield

In addition to the kit components, standard truck stock items
are required for installation. These include conduit, conduit
connectors, high voltage wires, wire labeling, wire ties, shielded
pair wire, foam insulation, and silicone for sealing box
penetrations.

The KE2 Temp+Valve Control is versatile and can be installed in
various locations such as evaporator cabinets, outside controlled
spaces, adjacent to entrances, side-by-side, above doors, and more.
It also supports remote monitoring, control, and alarm
notifications through RS-485 Modbus communications when used with
the KE2 Edge Manager (KE2-EM).

Furthermore, the controller features a post-defrost indicator to
prevent unnecessary service calls. It alerts the user when it is
coming out of a defrost cycle using the onboard display, displaying
“dEF” and the actual temperature measured by the air sensor until
reaching the setpoint or the defrost time limit.

Wiring the Controller
The Temp + Valve was designed with functionality in mind. The con-

troller accepts 120V / 208-240V to power the controller through the

lower conduit connection. The temperature sensor, pressure trans-

ducer, valve, and communication wires are attached via the upper

conduit connector.

A When wiring the controller first remove the display by loosening
the four corner screws. The display is connected to the lower board

by a short ribbon cable.

Caution: The board may be damaged if excessive force is used

when removing the cover.

B After the four screws have been detached from the lower section,

the cover may be gently moved to the side.

C Next remove the high voltage protective cover. There are two screws
holding it in place.

D With the high voltage cover removed, the two screw terminal con-

nectors can be seen. The Red 2-position connector is the controller’s

power supply.

E Connect line (L1) to the right most terminal position and neutral
(L2) to the terminal position.

F The liquid line solenoid-compressor contactor relay accepts a vari-
ety of input voltages and is not required to match the controller’s input. See table for relay ratings. The relay uses the 3-position screw terminal to make the connection on the board. It may control either the liquid line solenoid or as a pilot to the compressor contactor. When connecting the wires to the relay, the controller will be breaking one leg of the power.
If solenoid will use the same voltage as controller, one leg of incoming power (L1) supply for the liquid line solenoid should be connected to the common terminal of the liquid line solenoid relay, the left most terminal connection. The other leg of the incoming power (L2) should be connected directly to the solenoid lead. The remaining lead from the solenoid should be connected to the NO (normally open) terminal, the center terminal location.
Proper wiring practices must be followed. Local wiring codes take precedence over any information in this bulletin.
G Replace high voltage shield after wiring is completed.

Low Voltage Connections
H Air Temperature Sensor – The air temperature sensor terminal is lo-
cated on the cover’s circuit board, and is permanently attached. The temperature sensor input consists of the right two terminal positions. The sensor is not polarized and may be connected in either orientation.
The sensor should be fed through the top conduit connection, before being attached to the board.
This terminal is also used for an External System Off signal in certain control modes. See the diagrams at the end of the bulletin for more detailed information.

I Suction Temperature Sensor – The suction temperature sensor
terminal is located on the cover’s circuit board, and is permanently attached. The temperature sensor input consists of the middle two terminal positions. The sensor is not polarized and may be connected in either orientation.
The suction temperature sensor is required when applying the controller with an electronic expansion valve. The sensor’s proximity to the evaporator outlet differs slightly for electronically controlled valves from the placement of a TEV bulb. Due to the more refined control from an electronically controlled valve, the sensor must be placed as close to the outlet of the coil as feasible.
Although the distance from the outlet is different, the nature of the refrigerant’s flow through the tube remains unchanged, thus the orientation of the sensor remains at the 4 or 8 o’clock position. The sensor should be secured to the suction line using the included wire ties designed or low ambient operation. Only zip tie the sensor bulb, DO NOT zip tie the sensor cable.
This terminal is also used for an External System Off signal in certain control modes. See the diagrams at the end of the bulletin for more detailed information.

J
Pressure Transducer The pressure transducer terminal is located on the cover’s circuit board, and is permanently attached. The pressure transducer input consists of the 3 terminal positions on the lefthand side of the board.
When replacing a mechanical expansion valve, the external equalizer can be repurposed for the pressure transducer. Cut and braze a 1/4″ male SAE fitting with schrader valve to the external equalizer. The pressure transducer can alternatively be attached to the suction service port on the evaporator’s suction header. If a suction port is not available, mount the pressure tap on the top of a horizontal section of tube, approx. 3 inches downstream of the suction temperature sensor.

Remote Monitoring, Control, Alarm Notifications
The KE2 Temp + Valve includes RS-485 Modbus communications, and can now be accessed remotely using the KE2 Edge Manager (KE2EM). See page 4 for further details.

Programming the Controller
Many applications can use the controller’s preset defrosts per day. This automatically spaces the defrosts throughout the day, based on the number of defrost cycles selected. The user can change the number of defrost cycles performed by changing the Defrost per Day setpoint, ranging from 0 to 12. Or, if required, each individual defrost can be scheduled for a specific time of day.
