SKOPE TME ActiveCore Specifications Models This service manual is applicable to the SKOPE TME and SKT ActiveCore top mount chillers detailed in the table below. Refer to the relevant product specification sheet (available on the SKOPE website: www.skope.com) for specifications.
See page 8 for more information on operating modes. To ensure efficient operation, the electronic controller automatically forces a defrost cycle when required. The electronic controller is pre-programmed. SKOPE does not recommend that settings be changed unless it is absolutely necessary. Electronic Controller...
SKOPE TME ActiveCore Faceplate Because the electronic controller plays such an important role, it’s helpful to know the parts of the faceplate you may use. Item Description Digital display of cabinet temperature or messages. The temperature is what the sensor inside the chiller detects, and not necessarily the product temperature.
SKOPE TME ActiveCore Running the Chiller Operating The electronic controller will automatically switch the chiller between Modes ‘Normal’ and ‘Energy Saving’ modes depending on usage. During ‘Normal’ mode, the lights are on and product is fully chilled. During ‘Energy Saving’...
SKOPE TME ActiveCore Defrost Cycle The defrost cycle will begin after 2 hours (parameter dl) of cumulative compressor run time (not real time) or during No-Downward Tendency Protection (see over page). During the defrost cycle the compressor stops and the evaporator fan runs continuously. The defrost cycle will terminate when the evaporator probe reaches 4.5°C (parameter dt), or after the...
SKOPE TME ActiveCore Messages and Alarms Controller The following table explains messages and alarms that the electronic Display controller displays. Alarms signal unexpected operational changes in the chiller and can be muted by pressing the alarm set (mute) button on the electronic controller faceplate (see page 7).
SKOPE TME ActiveCore No-Downward The electronic controller initiates No-Downward Tendency Protection Tendency (NDTP) when the compressor has been running for 200 minutes (parameter Protection d12) and the control probe temperature has not decreased. This will force a standard defrost cycle (see page 9). If the electronic controller is required to...

SKOPE TME ActiveCore Programming the Electronic Controller The electronic controller parameter configuration program is set by SKOPE at the factory. A label on the controller box indicates the parameter configuration program number (e.g. the ActiveCore Series use program ‘081’). The electronic controller parameters can be modified using the keypad.
1°C and 15°C for other specialist applications if required (see below). SKOPE do not recommend that the setpoint be changed unless it is absolutely necessary, and then only by small increments at a time.
SKOPE TME ActiveCore 8. Press the Set (mute) button to temporarily save the new value. The display shows the parameter code. IMPORTANT If no buttons are pressed for 60 seconds or the power is disconnected before the temporarily saved values are permanently saved, the temporarily saved values will be cancelled and the previous setting will be restored.
