INTRODUCTION

The Coldface EWRC 300/500 NT series controls the temperature of a static or ventilated cold room. The instrument controls positive and negative cold rooms and is capable of managing double evaporator and condenser probes.

Coldface has 3 or 5 configurable relays depending on the model, and 2 digital inputs configurable for door switches or other devices. Models are available with a clock with a yearly calendar and HACCP event logging. Connection to TelevisSystem is possible using the optional module plug-in RS485. The container is used to install a magnetothermal switch or power contactor. This summary document contains basic information about the standard models EWRC 300/500 NT. For further information and different configurations, refer to the complete user manual cod. 9MA10258 downloadable free of charge from www.eliwell.com.

MECHANICAL INSTALLATION

  • Take out the 4 screws supplied and then open the cover.
  • Drill holes for the high and low volt-age cable glands on the sides of the backplate, as shown.
  • Check that the cables are inside the box.
  • Use suitable cable glands and/or conduit glands that guarantee an airtight seal for all wiring. See the cutout on the last page.
  • Drill 4 holes (see A…D) in the wall and fix the backplate using 4 screws (not supplied) suited to the wall thickness.
  • Insert plug covers TDI 20 (accessory available on request)

THE INSTRUMENT IS USED TO EDIT OTHER PARAMETERS PRESENT IN THE INSTALLER LEVEL (inS)

How to edit the installer-level parameters
The procedure applies only to more advanced applications. In this case, the parameters are arranged in fold-ers (Compressor / Defrost / Fans, etc)

  1. Press and hold the SET key for 3 seconds until the display shows PAr / USr
  2. Use UP & DOWN to select the parameter section inS
  3. Press and release the SET key once more. The display will show the first folder
  4. Press and release the SET key once more. The upper display will show the first parameter in the folder, the lower display will indicate the current parameter value
  5. Using the UP & DOWN keys, find the parameter that you wish to modify The procedure proceeds similarly to that described for the User parameters (points 4-7)

OPERATION IN DEFAULT CONFIGURATION
The instrument is configured for negative cold. For positive cold, disable the evaporator probe Pb2 (set H42=n) and set relay OUT3 (parameter H23=6) to prevent continuous ventilation.

COMPRESSOR
The compressor is active if the cold room temperature detected by Pb1 exceeds the value of SEt + differ-ential diF. The compressor stops if the cold room temperature detected by Pb1 falls below the SEt value. The instrument includes compressor on/off protection*

DEFROST
Defrost uses electric heaters (parameter dty = 0) and the time counter is always active with the instrument switched on (dCt=1).

Manual defrost
Manual defrost is activated by pressing and holding the ESC key (A). If conditions for defrosting are not present, (e.g. the evaporator probe temperature is higher than the defrost end temperature) or the parameter OdO≠0, the display will blink three times to indicate that the operation will not be performed.

Default Defrost settings

  • dit = 6 hours. interval between 2 defrost cycles
  • dSt = 6.0°C. defrosting end temperature set by Pb2.

The Defrost cycle may terminate due to timeout based on the parameter dEt (default 30 min).

EVAPORATOR FANS
Relay OUT3 is configured as a fan relay and is activated in the required cases, according to delays and parameter settings*

Default fan settings

  • dt = 0 min. dripping time
  • dFd = Y. Fans off during defrosting.

LIGHT (EWRC 500 NT)

  • The light is activated by pressing and holding the LIGHT key (F).
  • Since digital input D.I. 1 is configured as a door switch, relay OUT4 (light) is activated when the door is opened. The light also switches on with the instrument on standby*.

ALARM RELAY (EWRC 500 NT)
Relay OUT5 is configured as an alarm relay and is activated in the case of alarms, according to delays and parameter settings. *FOR MORE INFORMATION READ the manual, code 9MA10258

SUPERVISION

EWRC 300/500 NT can be connected to:

  • TelevisSystem or external system remote control system via Modbus protocol
  • DeviceManager fast parameter setting software

The connection can be made by direct RS-485 connection using the optional RS485/TTL plug-in module (not included). See Electrical Connections. FOR MORE INFORMATION READ the manual, code 9MA10258

TECHNICAL SUPPORT
Please have the following information available when contacting Eliwell Technical Support:

  • IdF firmware version (e.g. 554)
  • rEL firmware version release (e.g. 1,2,…)
  • tAb map code
  • rC instrument model (e.g. 300 or 500)

To obtain this information:

  • Press and release the DOWN / INFO key
  • Press and release the DOWN key once more to display other information about the instrument.
  • Press the ESC key to return to the normal display.

ALARMS AND TROUBLESHOOTING

How to display the alarms

  1. Press and release the UP key. The upper display will always show the label ALr. The lower display will show:
    • None if no alarms active
    • SYS to indicate system alarms – see Alarms Table
    • HACP to indicate HACCP alarms – see HACCP alarms
  2. Using the UP & DOWN keys, find the type of alarm that you want to check

System alarms
The upper display will show the label ALr, the lower display will indicate the alarm code – see Alarms Table

  • Using the UP & DOWN key, scroll the other alarms
  • Press the ESC key to return to the previous alarm code, press the ESC key several times (or keep it pressed) to return to the normal display

HACCP ALARMS • AVAILABLE ONLY FOR HACCP MODELS

  • The instrument logs high and low-temperature alarms for the cold room probe, as well as any power failures. The alarm types and the duration and start time of the alarm itself will be displayed in the alarms folder ALr. It is possible to disable the recording of alarms and/or resetting of HACCP alarms. See Functions Menu.

WARNINGS

Important!
Make sure the appliance is switched off before working on the electrical connections.

  • Probe and digital inputs, OUT5 relay: screw-on terminals pitch 5.01: electric cables with max. cross-section 2.5 mm2 (only one wire per terminal for power connections).
  • Power supply and relay OUT1..OUT4: screw-on terminals pitch 7.62: electric cables with max. cross-section of 4 mm2 (only one wire per terminal for power connections).
  • For the capacity of the terminals, see the label on the instrument. Outputs on OUT1-4 relay max. capacity 18A.
  • Do not exceed the maximum permitted current; for higher loads, use a contactor with sufficient power capacity. Make sure that the power supply is of the correct voltage for the instrument.
  • Probes have no connection polarity and can be extended using a normal two-core cable (note that extension of the probe influences the instrument’s electromagnetic compatibility – EMC and measurement class: take great care with the wiring). Probe cables, power supply cables, and TTL serial cables should be routed separately from power cables.
