CONTROLLER DESCRIPTION
CONTROLLER DESCRIPTION
The MP-4000 is an advanced microprocessor
controller. It has been specially developed for
the control and monitoring of refrigeration
units. The controller contains the following
basic features:
Temperature/Message Status Display:
• Temperature area. Displays Return air
sensor, Supply air sensor, and Setpoint
• Message area. Displays Alarms, Message
and Controller menu
Keypad:
• F1 – F4 Function keys navigate within the
Status Display
• 2 Status LED indicators
• Special Function keys. ON/OFF, PTI,
Defrost

Controller Input and Output Signals
The MP-4000 microprocessor controls all unit
functions to maintain the cargo at the proper
temperature. The controller also monitors and
records system faults and performs pretrip.
The MP-4000 controller uses advanced
solid-state integrated circuits to monitor and
control unit functions. The controller monitors
inputs from:
• Return Air Sensor
• Supply Air Sensor
• Evaporator Coil Sensor
• Condenser Coil Sensor
• Ambient Sensor
• Humidity Sensor
• USDA (Spare) Sensors 1, 2 and 3
• Compressor Discharge Line Temperature
Sensor
• High Pressure Cutout Switch/Discharge
Pressure Sensor
• Low Pressure Cutout Switch/Suction
Pressure Sensor
• Phase measuring circuits
• Current measuring circuits
• Voltage measuring circuits
Output signals from the controller
automatically regulate all unit functions
including:
• Compressor operation
• Condenser fan operation
• Evaporator fan motor operation
• Compressor digital valve
• Vapor injection valve
• Dehumidify valve
• Electric heaters
• Phase selection
