Capacity controller for CO˜ MiniPack AK-PC 572
ADAP-KOOL® Refrigeration Control System
Introduction
Application
The controller is used for capacity regulation of compressors and gas cooler
in small CO2 refrigeration applications.
As a minimum, control of a condensing unit can be performed using one
compressor unit, one gas cooler and one receiver. A maximum of 3+2 compressors
can be regulated.
Eg:
Advantages
-
Energy savings via:
- Optimal control of CO˜
- Optimisation of suction pressure
- Night time increase
- Floating gas cooler reference
- Heat recovery
- Load limitation
-
Simplified setting of the functions:
The controller ensures that the different control settings are adjusted in accordance with one another. Only basic settings are required. -
Ongoing adjustment of control references:
Newly developed algorithms adjust the problematic pressure ratios in the CO˜ controller.
Input and output
There are a limited number of available inputs and outputs, so most
connections are intended for one specific function. However, there a few
options for AUX use:
- If only one or two compressor units are connected to the MT circuit, there will be a DI input available. This could, for example, be used as an alarm input.
- If the compressor used is not a Bitzer CRII, a solid state output can be used for oil management.
- If heat recovery is not used, the AUX3 function can be used for an alarm function.
In order to control the high pressure valve and receiver pressure valve, two
Stepper Valve Extension Modules, EKE 1P, must be connected.
The overview of connections can be seen on page 23.
Operation
The daily operation can be set up directly on the controller or via an
external display device.
During set-up, the display images will be adjusted so that only the relevant
images are opened for additional setting and end-user operation.
The operation is password protected, and three levels of access can be
granted.
The controller contains several languages. Select the preferred language at
start-up.
Data communication
The controller has built-in MODBUS data communication, and it can be connected
to an AK-SM 800 type system device.
Suction Group
Compressor types
The following types of compressors can be used for regulation:
- Single-step compressors (one can be speed-regulated)
- Bitzer CRII compressor with two unloaders (4-cylinders). MT only.
Capacity regulation
The cut-in capacity is controlled by signals from the connected pressure
transmitter and the actual reference.
In the absence of any reference there is a neutral zone of 5 K.
- When the pressure is higher than the “reference + a half neutral zone”, cut-in of the next compressor (arrow up) is permitted.
- When the pressure is lower than the “reference – a half neutral zone”, cut-out of a compressor (arrow down) is permitted.
- When the pressure is within the neutral zone, the process will continue with the currently activated compressors.
This is always controlled using the “Best fit” connection pattern.
The reference
The controller will be set based on a fixed reference point. Based on the
configured reference, the controller will permit an offset of up to +/- 8K
depending on the other control parameters. For example:
- Night time increase. Fixed 5 K (on the MT circuit only)
- Po optimisation (on the MT circuit only)
Load shedding
The function is activated from the system unit.
When the load shedding function is activated, the maximum permissible
compressor capacity will be limited to 50% of maxi-mum on both MT and LT
circuits.
In this way, the total electrical load in the store is limited.
Control parameters
To make it easier to start up the system, the control parameters have been
grouped into a number of experience-based values. These values have been
combined in a setting called “Easy-settings”. Here you can choose between a
set of control settings applicable to a slow to rapidly reacting system.
The factory setting is medium.
Oil management
If the DO6 output is in use by a CRII, oil management cannot take place. If
the output is available, the controller can pulse oil into the MT circuit. The
time between the pulses can be configured using a timer function or using a
signal from a level switch.
Liquid injection in the MT suction line
This function is possible only if there is an available DO output. The
function opens for liquid when:
- The suction temperature is too high
- The pressurised gas temperature is too high
- Liquid inlet to the compressor must be prevented
Gas cooler
Fan control
The fans must be speed-controlled by the controller’s analogue output.
EC motors can receive the 0 – 10 V signal directly.
During night operation, the noise level of the fans can be kept down. This is
done by limiting the voltage and thus the speed.
The limitation is bypassed if the safety function Sd max. starts to function.
Regulation
The controller regulates the pressure in the gas cooler (condenser) so that
the system achieves the optimal COP.
The controller will always optimise to a subcritical state.
The pressure in the gas cooler is controlled by the valve Vhp. Regulation must
have inputs from both a pressure transmitter Pgc and a temperature sensor Sgc.
Both must be fitted in the outlet immediately after the gas cooler.
The valve is an CCMT valve, which has been specially developed for the
pressure conditions that exist in a transcritical CO˜ system. The valve’s
opening degree can be restricted both at the closing point and in the open
point.
Maximum COP control
During normal operation without override, the controller will maintain the
optimum pressure in the transcritical area.
Reference
It is controlled using variable references.
An outdoor temperature sensor, Sc3, must be installed.
The sensor must be positioned so that it registers the correct outdoor
temperature. In other words, it must be shielded from direct sunlight and
located near the airway of the condenser. Under normal operations it will be
controlled using a fixed temperature reference of 3 k above the outdoor
temperature. The pressure reference will be the configured value for the
sub-cooling when adjusting in the sub-critical range, and will be adjusted
based on optimal COP when adjusting in the trans-critical range. The reference
during heat recovery will be user configured.
Heat recovery
A digital input can be activated.
When the signal is received, the reference for the gas cooler pressure will be
raised to the configured value.
When the pressure of the heat recovery has been reached and the DI signal
disappears, the reference will drop once again, though it will do so over the
course of few minutes to prevent abrupt changes in the reference.
An optional relay outlet can be connected to heat recovery. The optional relay
is activated when the controller allows for heat recovery.
Cooling will always have a higher priority than heat recovery. If this higher
priority occurs, the relay will be deactivated and the reference for heat
recovery will be cancelled.
The cooling reference is now used for regulation until the temperatures and
pressure allow for heat recovery to resume.
During heat recovery, regulation can be carried out in accordance with:
- Max. COP – Most energy-optimal.
- Max. HR – The highest achievable heat recovery.
After start-up of the pack, e.g. after setting the main switch to “on”, the
heat recovery function input signal is ignored for 5 minutes.
Note: The AK-PC 572 heat recovery does not control the heat request. This
requires an external thermostat or similar. It does also not protect the heat
exchanger from high pressure due to boiling of water inside. This safety will
also require external control.
Warning
Remember that the controller controls the gas pressure. If the regulation is
stopped by the internal or external main switch, this control will stop as
well.
Risk of loss of charge.
Receiver control
The receiver pressure can be controlled so that it is kept at the desired
reference point. This reference point is fixed at 6 bar above the reference
point for Po-MT. This control requires the installation of a receiver valve
Vrec and a pressure transmitter.
Hot gas dump
This function is possible only if there is an available DO output. This
function allows for hot gas to be passed to the receiver if the pressure
approaches Po-MT.
Hot gas will be shut off again when the pressure returns above the desired
level.
AUX functions and limitations
AUX1-DI and -DO
This function shares an input and output with an MT compressor 3. AUX1 is
possible only if regulating using one or two compressors on the MT.
AUX1-DI can then be used as an alarm input.
AUX1-DO can then be used for liquid injection, DE-SH or hot gas dumping.
DO6
The output is a solid state output and reserved for a CRII. If CRII is not
used for regulation, DO6 can be used to control an oil valve.
Oil management
Oil management will share an output with a CRII compressor.
Oil management can take place only if a CRII is not used for regulation.
Oil management can be performed with a timer function or with a level signal
from an oil receiver. This signal can only be included in the “OIL” input. If
the input is not used for OIL it will be available and called AUX2-DI. It can
then be used as an alarm input.
AUX2-DO
The potential relay output can be freely used for liquid injection, DE-SH or
hot gas dumping.
AUX3-DI
This function shares an input with the heat recovery function. AUX3-DI is
possible only if heat recovery is not used.
AUX3-DI can then be used as an alarm input.
AUX3-DO
This function is reserved for heat recovery but only if a potential relay
output is also required to be activated when heat recovery is regulated.
If the output is not used for heat recovery, it can be used for liquid
injection, DE-SH or hot gas dumping.
AUX-DI as an alarm input
There are two alarm options:
- A “Fan error” that will be shown in the display and in the system unit if it occurs.
- A text alarm that will be shown in the display and in the system unit if it occurs.

Safety functions
Control optimisation
The controller continually registers the different pressures in the system.
The pressures are automatically adjusted for the most energy-optimal pressure.
If the pressure approaches a threshold value, the controller will adjust the
different references to maintain control.
Min./max. suction pressure Po
The suction pressure is recorded continuously.
If the measured value falls below the set minimum limit,
the compressors will immediately cut out.
If it exceeds the max. value, an alarm will be generated once the time delay
has elapsed.
LP switch
On/off signal on a DI input.
If a signal is received, all compressors will immediately be stopped.
HP switch
On/off signal on a DI input.
If a signal is received, all compressors will immediately be stopped. Fan
capacity will go to 100% when the Pgc measurement exceeds the reference.
Min./max superheat via Ss and Po measurement
Temperature sensor on an AI input.
If superheating is higher or lower than the set limits, an alarm will be
generated once the time delay has elapsed.
Max. discharge gas temperature Sd
Temperature sensor on an AI input.
There is an Sd for the MT group and an Sd for the LT group.
If the temperature nears the set max. temperature, the capacity of the
compressor will be reduced.
The compressors will be stopped if the temperature nears the set max.
temperature value.
Liquid injection in the MT suction line
This function is configured in the AUX_DO output.
There are no configuration values. The controller determines when liquid
injection is required.
Sensor failure
If lack of signal from one of the connected temperature sensors or pressure
transmitters is registered an alarm will be given.
- In the event of a Po error, regulation will continue with a set capacity in daytime operation (50%), and a set capacity in night operation (25%), but with a minimum of one step.
- In the event of a Pgc error, the fan capacity that corresponds to how much compressor capacity is connected will cut in. Compressor regulation will remain normal.
- When there is an error on the Sd sensor the safety monitoring of the discharge gas temperature will be discontinued.
- When there is an error on the Ss sensor the monitoring of the superheat on the suction line will be discontinued.
- In the event of an error on the outdoor temperature sensor, Sc3, 35 °C will be used as a reference.
NB : A faulty sensor must be correct for 10 minutes before a sensor alarm
is cancelled.
A sensor alarm can be reset manually by pushing the “X-button” for 2 seconds
when the alarm is shown in the display “Active alarms”.
Fan error alarm
On/off signal on a DI input. Possible only if the input is not used for its
intended purpose.
If the signal is received, an alarm is given.
General DI alarm
On/off signal on a DI input. Possible only if the input is not used for its
intended purpose.
The controller contains one general alarm input, to which alarm text and delay
times can be connected.
Alarm and text will appear when the delay time has elapsed.
Info
In normal operating conditions, the temperature at Sd will be between 60 and
70 °C – depending on whether it is winter or summer.
If the “Heat reclaim” function is to raise the condensing pressure, the
temperature may increase to 90° or higher.
The Sc3 sensor should be positioned so that it measures the air intake
temperature for the gas cooler. If it measures a temperature that is too high,
the system’s COP will become impaired.
The Sgc signal must be stable. If this cannot be done using a surface sensor,
it may be necessary to use an immersion tube sensor.
If the power supply to AK-PC 572 or the high pressure valve Vhp fails, the
system cannot be controlled. We recommend installing an emergency supply (UPS)
for both the controller and the valve to avoid faults. A relay in the UPS
should be incorporated into the controller’s safety circuit so that it can
restart safely.

Sensor alarms
Sensor alarms shut off automatically when the sensor has been O.K. for 10
minutes.
If you have corrected the sensor error and want to perform a manual, forced
removal of the alarm, go to the “Alarm detail display”. Press and hold the “X”
key for 2 seconds here.
ERR31
Alarm on the external display – MMIGRS2
If the communication to the display is not carried out correctly, it will send
an “ERR31” error notification.
This may be caused by the displayed terminations not being installed, or that
there have been interruptions in data communication during the time when the
display retrieves the basic information from the controller. Once the
terminations have been inspected, you should then check the software version
of the external display. This is done by holding down the Enter key and the X
key for 5 seconds, until the Bios menu appears. Next, press the X key and read
off the software version in the bottom right corner. The software version must
be 1.13 or newer.
Once the display’s software version has been checked, check the display’s
settings as follows:
- Hold the Enter key and the X key down for 5 seconds, until the Bios menu appears.
- Select the “MCX selection” menu
- Select the “Clear UI” line and press Enter
- Select the “Autodetect” line and press Enter
- Press the X key to return to the Bios menu
- Select the “COM selection” menu
- Select the “CAN” line and press Enter
- Press the X key to return to the Bios menu
- Select the “Start up mode” menu
- Select the “Remote application” line and press Enter
- Press the X key to return to the Bios menu
- Select the “CAN” menu
- Select the “Baudrate” line and check that it is 50K
- Select the “Node ID” line and check that it is 126
- Press the X key to return to the Bios menu
- Select the “Application” menu and press Enter.
The display will once again retrieve data from the controller. This process will take about 5 minutes.
Important
Read the following before you connect the controller and the two valve modules
to the supply voltage.
The EKE 1P is pre-configured to determine the extension module mode based on
the AI4 status of the EKE 1P:
AI4 open circuit: high pressure module with address 96
AI4 short circuit to 5V: receiver module with address 97
If you wish to check the addresses of the two valve modules, you should carry
out the following:
Connect all modules to the power supply.
Immediately press on both the “X” and “Enter” buttons while the controller is
starting up.
Find the display “CAN SETTINGS” > “ACTIVE NODES”
The two 1-digits represent the addresses 96 (HP module) and 97 (Receiver
module) respectively.
If you remove the connection to a valve module, the display of the address
will also disappear.
Power failure safety
The EKE 2U can be used as back-up power supply. It will enable the EKE 1P
modules to close the high pressure valve and the receiver valve in case of
power failure. The wiring is illustrated
on page 24. Refer to the EKE 1P and EKE 2U documentation for further details.

using a wire with a plug. See order. Communication will take place via CANBUS.
The CANBUS termination must be moved away from the controller and to the
external display.
Extension modules
Bitzer CRII
The pulse signal can also be used to control one of the CRII with 2 unloaders
(4 cylinder version). Compressor capacity can be controlled from 10 to 100%
depending on the pulsation of the unloaders. The unloaders are connected to
DO5 and DO6.
Connect compressor relay to DO-MT1.
Unloader 2 follows unloader 1 but is offset a ½ period.
Injection ON
The electronic expansion valves in the cooling appliances must be closed when
all the compressors are prevented from starting. The injection ON function is
then switched OFF. As a result,
the evaporators will not be filled with fluid that can be led to a compressor
when the regulation process restarts.
This function can be achieved through data communication.
Alternatively, wiring must be created using the compressor relays. When all
compressors have been stopped, a signal must be issued to the evaporator
controls that will subsequently close the expansion valves.

Installation considerations
Accidental damage, poor installation, or site conditions, can give rise to
malfunctions of the control system, and ultimately lead to a plant breakdown.
Every possible safeguard is incorporated into our products to prevent this.
However, a wrong installation, for example, could still present problems.
Electronic controls are no substitute for normal, good engineering practice.
Danfoss will not be responsible for any goods, or plant compo-nents, damaged
as a result of the above defects. It is the installer’s responsibility to
check the installation thoroughly, and to fit the necessary safety devices.
Special reference is made to the necessity of signals to the control-ler when
the compressor is stopped and to the need of liquid receivers before the
compressors.
Your local Danfoss agent will be pleased to assist with further advice, etc.
