powercompact is the new CAREL proposal for the control of
stand-alone refrigeration units; it is especially suitable for applications
that require high power for switching the loads, a significant number of outputs,
functions and control with direct access from the keypad, a high IP of the front
panel and at the same time a compact design that significantly reduces overall
dimensions.
This series is a complete range of products and accessories that ensure ease-of-use
for the installer and optimise production times for the manufacturer, typically
in the case of mass production.
Configurations are available with 2, 3, 4 and 5 relays, including 2 HP relays
for the compressors, and featuring a switching power supply with an extended
voltage range (115 to 230 Vac).
The continuous monitoring of critical events (HACCP), the possibility of connection
to supervisory and telemaintenance systems, the presence of power relay outputs,
the connection terminal block fitted on the rear of the board, the programming
key as standard, and the repeater display, are all characteristics that place
the powercompact at the top of the CAREL range of cooling controllers.
ADVANTAGES
Large display powercompact is fitted with a very powerful and attractive display,
featuring 3 digits plus decimal point, a plus/minus sign and an icon,
simplifying the reading of the values and the operating status. The ergonomic
silicon keypad allows direct access to the HACCP, light, defrost and continuous
cycle functions.
RTC
This accessory is used to log detailed data, as well as to program real
time defrost cycles (rather than preset defrost intervals). The RTC ensure
compliance with the HACCP standards.
Connection terminal block
powercompact features a power terminal block for the direct connection
of the loads, without the presence of the common terminal. In addition,
the use of relays with changeover contacts ensures maximum flexibility
in the connections to the panel. The terminal block is available with
screw terminals or removable spade connectors so as to satisfy the needs
of all manufacturers and installers.
Extended range switching power supply
The possibility to operate over an extended range of power supply voltages
(115 to 230 Vac) in the range of refrigeration controllers ensures maximum
performance, reducing dimensions and costs. In addition, it allows the
powercompact to operate at temperatures as high as 65 °C.
Quality certification:
powercompact series fitted with the standard Carel NTC probe is compliant,
as required by EC regulation 37/2005 of 12/012005, with standard EN13485
on thermometers for measuring the air temperature in applications on
units for the conservation and sale of refrigerated, frozen and deep-frozen
food and ice cream.
