Introduction - Danfoss ERC 102 Reference Manual

1. INTRODUCTION

The ERC 102 is an electronic refrigeration controller with an LED display especially developed for bottle
coolers and commercial fridges and freezers . It is particularly suited for OEM customers where time, easy and
reliable installation and high quality need to go hand in hand with flexibility .
The latest generation CPU, plenty of memory and high-end electronic components allow for a uniquely
versatile software . Three separate password-protected user levels can be used to control more than 200
different parameters to fit all individual requirements .
ERC 102's IP rated body, advanced materials and internationally approved hardware design open it up for use
in almost any climate globally, indoors as well as outdoors .
Laboratory work with ERC 102 is rendered easy and flexible . Danfoss KoolProg software with a USB-powered
gateway accelerate programming; on the OEM assembly line, just one Danfoss unique Docking station can
easily program up to 3,000 controllers a day – at zero inventory cost .
It uses a globally-compatible, lightweight, switch mode power supply .
All components have been carefully selected to help reduce the CO footprint . The globally-compatible
2
internal power supply uses an average of just 0 .7W – 4 times less than an average controller today .
Sensors include ambient light for display brightness, which also detect shop opening hours for
energy-saving routines . Door and temperature sensors provide input for controlling the compressor,
the light, the fan and automatic defrosting .
