2.5 UPPER FRESH AIR MAKEUP VENT The purpose of the fresh air makeup vent is to provide ventilation for commodities that require fresh air circulation. The vent must be closed when transporting frozen foods or controlled atmosphere loads. Air exchange depends on static pressure differential, which will vary depending on the container and how the container is loaded.
Page 33
2.7 REFRIGERATION CIRCUIT WITH RECEIVER Starting at the compressor, the suction gas is compressed to a higher temperature and pressure. When operating with the air-cooled condenser, the gas flows through the discharge service valve into the pressure regulator valve that is normally open. The pressure regulator valve restricts the flow of refrigerant to maintain a minimum discharge pressure of 5 kg/cm@ (70 psig).

The memory card automatically downloads new software to the Controller when inserted, and controls output to the display for status information. g. Provide electronic data storage. NOTE For the benefit of the reader the remaining parts of section 3.1 will devote themselves to the temperature controller portion of the module.
3.1.3 General Layout of the Controller Section The Micro-Link 2i Controller/DataCORDER consists of a key pad, display module and Controller module. Connectors are used to attach the wiring of the unit to the Controller module. The Controller module is designed to permit ease of installation and removal. All control functions are accessed by key pad selections and viewed on the display module which are designed for optimum user friendliness and convenience.
Page 43
The display module (see Figure 3-2) is mounted at a 20 degree downward tilt to aid in visibility. The display module consists of: a. Two 25mm (1 inch) high, five digit LCD displays which are easily viewed in direct sunlight and backlighted for superior low-light visibility.
3.1.4 Controller Function Codes There are thirty-nine functions which the operator may access to examine the operating status of the unit. To access these functions, perform the following steps: Press the CODE SELECT key, then press an arrow key until the left window displays the desired code number Table 3-3.
Page 45
CODE TITLE Inapplicable Functions Display - -- -- -- -- - Condenser pressure is displayed using a pressure transducer. Pressure is displayed in units of psig when code 28 is set to _F and units of bars when Condenser Pressure Cd13 function code Cd28 is set to _C.
CODE TITLE Function codes Cd27 through Cd37 are user-selectable functions. The operator can change the value of these functions to meet the operational needs of the container. The defrost interval is the time interval between defrost cycles. Five selectable values are available: 3, 6, 9, 12 or 24 hours. The factory default value is 12 hours. The time interval of the first defrost will not begin counting down until defrost termination sensor (DTS) is below 10_C (50_F).
Page 47
CODE TITLE Inapplicable Functions Display - -- -- -- -- - The current limit is the maximum current demand allowed on any phase at any time. Limiting the unit’s current (amperage) reduces the load on the main power Current Limit and lowers the compressor discharge pressure.

Page 50
CODE TITLE Alarm 53 is caused by the nicad battery pack being too low of a charge for battery-backed recording. NiCad Battery Pack AL53 Failure Alarm 54 is activated by an invalid primary supply sensor reading that is sensed outside the range of --50 to +70_C (--58_F to +158_F) or if the probe check logic has determined there is a fault with this sensor.

modulation valve (SMV) and suction solenoid valve (SSV) with the compressor energized. When pulling down from a control temperature that is more than 5_C (9_F) above set point, both valves will be open to reduce the pulldown time unless suction solenoid override or current limiting is activated.
Page 54
out-of-range or compressor shutdown condition, the heat relay is de-energized immediately. The out-of-range timer is provided to allow the heaters to remain energized during a temporary out-of-range condition. If the control probe temperature remains outside of the user selected in-range setting for more than five minutes, the heaters will be de-energized to allow the system to recover.

3.1.7.2 Frozen Range Below - -10_C (+14_F), or - -5_C (+23_F) Optionally For set points below - -10_C (+14_F), or - -5_C (+23_F) optionally, the Controller maintains RETURN air at the set point temperature using the following modes of operation: a.
the VENT mode is selected on the CA Controller. The user must scroll through the selection by pressing the UP ARROW or DOWN ARROW keys, then pressing the ENTER key when the selection is made. While the tests are being executed, the user can terminate the pre-trip mode by holding the PRE-TRIP key.
c. Auto Test Operation From Serial Communications Pre-trip may also be initiated via communications. The operation is the same as for the Auto Test mode described above except that should a test fail, the pre-trip mode will automatically terminate. When initiated via communications, a test may not be interrupted with an arrow key, but the pre-trip mode can be terminated with the PRE-TRIP key.

4.1 PRE-TRIP INSPECTION (Before Starting) WARNING Beware of unannounced starting of the evaporator and condenser fans. a. If container is empty, check inside for the following: 1. Check channels or “T” bars on floor for cleanliness. Channels must be free of debris for proper air circulation.
4.2 STARTING AND STOPPING INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION Make sure that the unit circuit breaker(s) (CB-1 & CB-2) and the start-stop switch (ST) are in the OFF position before connecting to any electrical power source. a. Starting the Unit NOTE The evaporator fans will always start in high speed regardless of set point and will switch to low speed after approximately 20 to 30 seconds if the set point is below - -10_C (+14_F), or...
If AL55 is active, meaning that the DataCORDER (DC) functionality is no longer active (DC configuration variable off), the Controller will act as a four probe configured system during probe checks. The only differences will be that the Controller Function Codes Cd38 and Cd39 will become enabled thus allowing access to the secondary probe readings since the DC functions, codes and alarms have become deactivated.

4.4.5 Heating (See Figure 4-4.) The unit will heat only when the controller set point is above - -10_C (+14_F), or - -5_C (+23_F) optionally, as relay TH is electronically locked out to prevent heating when the controller set point is below - -10_C (+14_F), or - -5_C (+23_F) optionally.
4.4.6 Defrost Refer to section 3.1.4 (Code 27) for description of the defrost interval selector and automatic defrost initiation. The defrost cycle (see Figure 4-5) consists of two distinct sub-cycles. The first sub-cycle is the de-ice cycle, the second is a probe check cycle. Defrost may take place any time the DTS allows, and no shutdown alarms are active.

Installation: Install the module by reversing the steps in section 6.27.b. Torque values for mounting screws (item 1, Figure 6-31) are 0.23 mkg (20 inch-pounds), and 0.12 mkg (10 inch-pounds) for all connectors (MA, MB, MC, KA &...
circuits (refer to section 5). A description of the test points follows: NOTE Use a digital voltmeter to measure ac voltage between TP’s and ground (TP9), except for TP8. This test point enables the user to check if the internal protector for the compressor motor (IP-CP) is open or closed (and the Auto Transformer-IP if so equipped).
7. Put unit back in service under normal load and check head (discharge) pressure. Detailed Procedure: 1. Drain and flush the water circuit of the condenser coil. If scale on the tube inner surfaces is accompanied by slime, a thorough cleaning is necessary before de-scaling process can be accomplished.
NOTE If the condenser cooling water is not being used as drinking water or is not re-circulated in a closed or tower system, neutralizing is not necessary. 11. Put the unit back in service and operate under normal load. Check the head pressure. If normal, a thorough de-scaling has been achieved.
