General information

EXD-HP1/2 are stand-alone superheat and or economizer controllers. EXD-HP1 is intended for the operation of one EXM/EXL or EXN valve whereas EXD-HP2 is designed for the operation of two independent EXM/EXL or two EXN valves.

Note:
It is possible to use only Circuit 1 from EXD-HP2. In this case, circuit 2 must be disabled (C2 parameter) and the sensors and the valve for the second circuit are not needed.

ModBus communication is described in a Technical Bulletin and it is not covered by this document.
