EVCO S.p.A. EVJ800 | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144J800E104 Once the desired cycle has been selected, by pressing the key it is possible to add a phase (hard for blast chilling, soft for blast freezing) that will be carried out preliminary to the standard phase, thus changing from a single phase to a two phase cycle.
EVCO S.p.A. EVJ800 | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144J800E104 On completion of the blast chilling/blast freezing cycle, when the needle probe has reached the right temperature or the time period is finished, the buzzer sounds and the conservation phase begins. If the temperature controlled cycle is not completed in the allotted time, the problem will be notified by displaying an alarm message.
EVCO S.p.A. EVJ800 | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144J800E104 Access the SPECIAL CYCLES menu using the key and select PRE-COOLING: at this point the working SETPOINT setting screen is displayed, the value of which is given by parameter r12 but which can be modified using keys.
EVCO S.p.A. EVJ800 | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144J800E104 Defrosting can also be carried out automatically during conservation or pre-cooling at time intervals set by parameter d0, provided that this value is not set to 0. Regardless of how they have been started up, defrosting cycles are managed by the following parameters.
EVCO S.p.A. EVJ800 | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144J800E104 During a sanitation cycle, the device will always display the cabinet temperature and, depending on the phase in progress, the blast chilling end temperature or the duration of the holding phase.
EVCO S.p.A. EVJ800 | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144J800E104 Thawing The thawing cycle is only available if the load managed by the K4 output is the thawing heater (u1 = 2). Access the SPECIAL CYCLES menu from the...
EVCO S.p.A. EVJ800 | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144J800E104 set 1 = initial setpoint set 2 = final setpoint Five parameters are used to manage the ventilation (one for each phase). The parameters define the fan operation as either continuous or in parallel with the compressor/thawing heater.
EVCO S.p.A. EVJ800 | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144J800E104 The display will show the count-down for the remaining time. At the end of the cycle the buzzer sounds for 1 second and the device returns to the Home page.
EVCO S.p.A. EVJ800 | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144J800E104 MANAGING THE LOADS Door frame heating The output is present only if the load managed by output K4 is the door frame heater (u1 = 0). This function is activated automatically when the controller is switched on or is in operation and the temperature in the cabinet falls below the value set by parameter u5.
EVCO S.p.A. EVJ800 | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144J800E104 Evaporator fans The management of the evaporator fans varies according to the cycle activated, as specified below. Moreover, the management mode varies according to whether the evaporator probe is present, which can be enabled by setting parameter P4 to 1.
EVCO S.p.A. EVJ800 | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144J800E104 Alarm Output present only with u2 = 3 (alarm). This activates when an alarm is set off and deactivates when the alarm stops. Needle probe heating Output present only with u2 = 2 (needle heating).
EVCO S.p.A. EVJ800 | Installer manual ver. 1.0 | Code 144J800E104 CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS The parameters are set by default in °C and the relative values and limits are shown in the table in this unit of measurement. In order for the controller to display the values in °F, set P2 to 1 and after the change, disconnect the power from the device and then reconnect it.
