  • Page 4: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION N150 is an electronic temperature controller, suitable for commercial refrigerators. It controls the temperature of refrigeration chambers. It also monitors the evaporator, condenser, or compressor temperatures for protection and energy saving actions such as alarms, defrost, among others. It features a LED display, perfect for keeping track of the controller's operation and configuration.

    It is recommended to use RC FILTERS (noise suppressors) at contactor coils, solenoids, etc. • In control applications, it is essential to consider what can happen when any part of the system fails. The internal devices of the equipment do not • guarantee full protection. NOVUS AUTOMATION 7/20...

    Once a parameter has been accessed, there is a maximum time interval for making an adjustment: around 20 seconds. After this time, the controller will automatically return to T1 and end Configuration mode. The parameters in the Configuration Commissioning cycle are the only exception, as they do not have a maximum time for a configuration adjustment to take place. NOVUS AUTOMATION 8/20...

    It is possible to install the NTC3 sensor directly on the metal body of the compressor. Thus, T3 starts monitoring the temperature. The SP3 • parameter determines the limit temperature for the compression body. Beyond this value, the compressor will be compulsorily shut down. NOVUS AUTOMATION 14/20...

    When experiencing errors during the measurements of the T1, T2, and T3 temperature sensors, the controller will show the respective messages Er1, Er2, and Er3 in the display. The ERR flag will also light up when any error occurs during the operation of N150. When the compressor temperature protection (T3 > SP3) is active, the Er5 message will be displayed 8.9.
