  • Page 17: Electronic Control Functionality

    ELECTRONIC CONTROL FUNCTIONALITY Electronic Control This unit is equipped with an electronic temperature control. The control parameters are set at the factory and cannot be manually changed in the field. Control parameter changes can only be made by downloading a new set of parameters using a program chip supplied by Federal Industries.

  • Page 18: Defrost Cycle

    Defrost Cycle The electronic control is programmed to initiate defrost by two different methods. There are (3) programmed defrost cycles in the control which will initiate a defrost cycle every 8 hours. The unit does not have a time clock so the defrost cycles cannot be set for any specific time of day. The electronic controller uses time to initiate the defrost cycle, and temperature to terminate the defrost cycle.

  • Page 19: Control Display

    Control Display The control display is located in the unit base. It is programmed to display the current set point associated with the control sensor located inside the air duct at the top of the case. Minimum Run Timer Feature The unit controller is programmed to have the condensing unit run a minimum of 5 minutes, regardless of the control temp being satisfied.

  • Page 20: Remote Refrigeration

    Remote Operation Electronic Expansion Valve (EEV) After 1/20 A traditional TXV uses springs and a temperature bulb to open and close a valve port that controls the flow of refrigerant entering the evaporator coil. An electronic expansion valve (EEV) controls the refrigerant flow much more precisely, increasing the performance and efficiency of the refrigeration system.

  • Page 21: Remote Refrigeration Operation

    4. Suction line must be insulated the entire length with Armaflex (or equivalent). Do not run liquid line inside insulation with suction line. 5. If remote control is not supplied by Federal Industries, the remote high/low-pressure control must be mounted, wired and pressures set by the installer.
