    The compressor capacity can be controlled from 10 to 67%, depending on the pulse of the unloaders. The relay is then connected to the third unloader. When this relay is on, the capacity will be controlled between 33 and 100%. Capacity controller RS8HF102 © Danfoss 2017-07 AK-PC 772A...

  • Page 101 The Sgc signal must be stable. If this cannot be done using a sys- tem sensor, it may be necessary to use an immersion tube sensor. If the power supply to AK-PC 772A 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.
