1. DESCRIPTION
The PCT-410Ri plus is a pressure controller for use in plants that require cooling control on its
suction and discharge stages.
It has 5 control outputs: 4 digital outputs and 1 analog output for proportional control via frequency
inverter, and a pressure sensor input with 4 to 20mA output. Working in pairs, controls up to 5 fans and 5
compressors at the same time.
Through the remote communication between the suction and discharge controllers obtains more
precise control of the process.
Versatile, manages the drive of loads in linear mode, rotation or capabilities
And, through the RS-485 serial port allows communication with the software SITRAD for management
via internet.

This will be necessary for changing the configuration parameters. This code will not be necessary for
only viewing the adjusted parameters.
- Indication Offset
[f02]
Allows compensation for any deviations on the pressure reading resulting from a change of the sensor.
[f03] - Operation Mode
This function defines the mode the PCT-410Ri plus must be configured.
[,0,] - Depressurize: The controller works to decrease the pressure until it reaches the
setpoint value (desired pressure).
[,1,] - Pressurize: The controller works to increase the pressure until it reaches the setpoint
value (desired pressure).

4. CONFIGURATIONS
Attention
Before proceeding to the setpoint adjustments (desired pressure) and the configuration parameters,
select the pressure unit of measure and the type of pressure switch which you wish to work with,
because the modification/alteration of these parameters causes the instrument/controller to return to
its factory settings (see item 4.3).

  • Page 2: Operation

    [,0,] - Remote alarm off. With this value the PCT-410Ri plus will operate without a remote pressostat. [f13] -Startup delay (activation) [,1,] - Remote alarm on. With this value the PCT-410Ri plus will operate with a remote Time counted from the initialization wherein the instrument only shows the pressure without activating pressostat.
  • Page 3 Example 2: Using the same values as in example 1. 5.3 Control Mode 2 - Only digital outputs with activation by time Pressurize (rotation) Start/Stop Off Similarly to the previous mode, only the digital outputs will be used, and thus the controller will assume Analog output only the hysteresis value configured in the function: "digital output hysteresis."...
  • Page 4 Example 4: Pressurize, Start/Stop On Then, the step of each digital output is 5 psi (20 psi divided by 4). Thus we can conclude that each digital stage Setpoint: 50 psi corresponds to 20% of analog output (step divided by the analog hysteresis) in the case: 25 psi divided by 5. Hysteresis of digital outputs: 20 psi Thus whenever the controller enable or disable a digital stage it will compensate for the analog output by adding Number of stages: 3...
