CONNECTION INFORMATION & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The guarantee will lapse in case of damage caused by failure
to comply with these operating instructions! We shall not be
liable for any consequent loss! We do not accept liability for
personal injury or damage to property caused by inadequate
handling or non-observance of the safety instructions! The
guarantee will lapse in such cases.
This manual contains additional safety instructions in the
functional description. Please note them!
If you notice any damage, the product may not be connected
to mains voltage! Danger of Life!
A riskless operation is impossible if:
• The device has visible damages or doesn't work
• After a long-time storage under unfavourable conditions
• The device is strongly draggled or wet
• After inadequate shipping conditions
• Never use this product in equipment or systems that are
intended to be used under such circumstances that may
affect human life. For applications requiring extremely
high reliability, please contact the manufacturer first.
• The product may only be used for the applications
described on page 1.
• Electrical installation and putting into service must be
done from qualified personnel.
• During installation and wiring never work when the
electricity is not cut-off ! Danger of electric shock!
• To prevent electrical shock, the device may only be
operated in a closed control cabinet or control box.
• Never operate unit without housing.
Danger of electric shock!
• All ‘PE’ terminals must be connected to PE.
Danger of electric shock! Additionally, the internal noise
filter will not work, faulty indicated values may occur.
• Please note the safety instructions and standards of your
place of installation!
• Before installation: Check the limits of the controller and
the application (see tech. data). Check amongst others:
- Make sure that all wiring has been made in accordance
with the wiring diagram in this manual.
- Supply voltage (is printed on the type label).
- Environmental limits for temperature/humidity.
- Maximum admitted current rate for the relays. Compare
it with the peak start-up currents of the controlled loads
(motors, heaters,etc.).
Outside these limits malfunction or damages may occur.
• Sensor/probe cables must be shielded. Don’t install them
in parallel to high-current cables. Shielding must be
connected to PE at the end close to the controller.
If not, inductive interferences may occur.
• Please note for elongation: The wire gauge is not critical,
but should have 0,5mm² as a minimum.
• Mounting the controller close to power relays is
unfavourable. Strong electro-magnetic interference,
malfunction may occur!
• Take care that the wiring of interface lines meets the
necessary requirements.
• All used temperature sensors must be identical. Never
use different types at the same time. This will not work.
• TF-type sensors are not designed for being immersed in
fluids permanently. In such a case, always use dip-fittings.
With extreme temperature variations, the sensor may be
damaged.
Cleaning
The use of a dry, lint-free cloth and household agents is
sufficient to clean the product.
Never use acids or acidic fluids! Risk of damage!

Error Messages / Error Memory / Error Codes
If a failure occurs, the controller will show parameter P43 with an error code with a flashing display au-
tomatically. Always the last 15 errot messages keep memorized with date and time of their appearance
and can be read-out via data interface.
---- .............. no error
sel ............error in assignment page, e.g. function selected too often
Thi ............alarm sensor, overtemperature
tlo ............alarm sensor, undertemperature
tXb............sensor X broken
tXc............sensor X hot-wired
dbt ............number of defrost cycles without termination by temperature exceeded,
maybe too many ice or heater malfunction.
rrt ............cooling has achieved maximum runtime. This message is only active at point-in-time
set by P42 (mode page).
rdo ............door contact is open too long. This message is only active at point-in-time set
by P42 (mode page).
dor ............door X is open
opc ............alarm at digital input X
cha ............safety chain open
hrd ............ hardware failure
If a sensor is short or broken, a time delay of 5 seconds takes effect before an alarm will be activated.
Configuration Concept
Theinputs/outputsoftheEVP-coldstoragecontroller
have no fixed tasks. The EVP works with a "free
configurable" concept, this means that all available
inputs and outputs (relays, sensors, digital inputs,
analogue output) can be configured to work with any
integrated control function or control circuit.
Sensors
Each sensor can fulfill each function, even up to 3
functions at the same time. (Function (a) of sensor
X, Function (b) of sensor X, Function (c) of sensor
X, X = sensor#). e.g.:
1. Control sensor /alarm sensor at the same time
2. Defrost limitation sensor and control sensor at
the same time, e.g. to control a refrigerated
shelf by the temperature of its air outlet.
Virtual Sensors
Up to 4 sensors can be combined to a 'virtual' sensor
to realize averaging with selectable emphasis.
Digital inputs (Optocoupler inputs)
Each digital input can be assigned to one of the
possible functions.
Relay Outputs
Each relay can be used to control one of the possible
functions. The same function can even be assigned
to multiple relays.
Relay output #4 is a Solid State Relay
with a lower contact rating than the
standard relay outputs. Normally, this
output is used for driving Electronic Ex-
pansion Valves, but can be used for any
other task if it works within the specified current
range.
Parameter
Parametersoffunctionswhicharenotassignedwillnot
appear in the parameter pages to improve survey.
Assignment
The function of each input and output can be preset
on the 'assignment page'. The assignment can be
done by keys or via interface.
Configuration Example for an EEx-Valve
Configuration of the controller
Hereby we use the example from above: A cold storage with an evaporator with Electronic Expansion
Valve.

Display of actual values and states
All actual values are shown on the "Actual Values
Page" ((l)).
Status of the controller unit
If the 4 status LED's on the front are blinking
simultaneously and the display shows "oFF", the
control functions are disabled by digital input or
data interface.
Display of temperatures
"L01" -" L04" (Actual Values Page) show the actual
temperature value of the sensors 1-4 in a range
within -100... +100°C. "L05" shows a temperature
value which is calculated from the pressure value
of the transducer and the selected refrigerant table,
"L07" shows the 'virtual' temperature value.
With "P31"-"P34" and "P36" (Mode Page) this
displays can be calibrated.
Expansion Valve Status Display
This shows the current, average aperture size
from 0...100 % and additionally the actual state
of the valve.
cut = Restart of the evaporator after abnormal
operating conditions (cutoff)
pdo = Pumpdown of the refrigerant
(cooling relay ON for 30 sec.)
Setpoints
The active day or night setpoints are indicated by
the left decimal point switched on.
Time information
The Actual Values Page contains all runtime- /
remaining time information, so the times up to the
start of a function can be read.
Status of inputs/outputs
Digital-(OK)-Inputs State of the relays
Analogue Output: Parameter L50, value in %
Temperature Sensors
These types of temperature sensors can be used:
- TF 201, PTC sensor (2000 ohms@25°C)
- TF 501, PT1000 sensor (1000 ohms@0°C)
- customer specific sensor So1 (-40...+25°C)
- customer specific sensor So2 (-50...+50°C)
The type of sensor can be set by 'P35' (Mode
Page).
Please don't use the TF 201 sensor
if you work with Electronic
Expansion Valves.
'Permanent Parameter' - Function
After power-up of the controller, the display will
indicate the 'permanent parameter' after some
seconds (or in case of a failure it will display the
current failure). This can also be read if you don’t
touch a key for more than 3 minutes.
If you think that it is suggestive to show any sensor
value as permanent parameter, do the following:
Change permanent parameter
- Select the parameter you want to have as
'permanent parameter'
- Press "" and "" simultaneously.
The display shows "888" for a moment, after
that the selected parameter will be shown as
the 'permanent parameter'.

Technical Manual Cold Storage Controller EVP 3150-1 and EVP 3150-2 Page 7
Cooling
Cooling control by Solenoid Valve / Compressor
Cooling is controlled by switching the output relay
contacts ON an OFF.
For freezing applications, the N/C contact can be
used (inverted mode) to secure permanent cooling
in case of a controller defect, adjustable by "P03"
(Mode Page).
The point of cut-off is always the valid setpoint. If the
temperature at the control sensor exceeds setpoint
+hysteresis ("r10", Setpoint Page),the control relay
will switch on. "P03"also affects to the switching
characteristic of the fan relay.
Do not use 'inverted', if compressors are
controlled directly. Risk of compressor
damage by continuous running!
The control relay can be locked via data interface.
Low temperature Limitation
Can be used e.g. for refrigerated shelfs with roller
blinds to limit the temperature at the air outlet during
night operation. When the temperature at the alarm
sensor decreases the limit set by "r43" (resp. "r44",
Setpoint Page) cooling will switch off.
This value is the threshold for the low temperature
alarm at the same time.
The low temperature limitation cannot be
switched off.
Runtime Monitoring
The controller monitors the total running hours of
the cooling output over 3 days. A 'day' is defined
as the period within "P42" and 1 minute before the
same point in time next day.
Example:
"P42" set to 11:00 am =
Monitoring time range is from 11:00 o'clock day 1up
to 10:59 o'clock day 2.
The overall runtime of the cooling relay over a day
will be added and stored ("L21", Actual Values
Page). If this runtime exceeds the value set by "r31"
three days in a sequence, this will cause an alarm
at the hour programmed by "P42" (Mode Page).
The alarm relay will be de-activated and the alarm
LED switches on.
This alarm will be cancelled automatically 1
hour later.
Operation with a single compressor
If a single compressor is controlled by a refrigeration
relay, it is suggestive to have an idle time to prevent
the machine from damages caused by short cycle
operation.The compressor can restart only after the
timer "r33" (Setpoint Page) has been run down.The
remaining time up a restart can be read at "L36"
(Actual Values Page).
Temperature Alarm
Ifarelaygetsthefunction"ALA",atemperaturealarm
willbeforwardedbythe 'Quiescentcurrent'principle.
After power-up of the controller, the alarm relay will
be energized after ~4 sec. In case of a failure the
relay will be de-energized after a delay timer ("r45",
Setpoint Page) has
been run down. LED
"Alarm" shows the
alarm state. If tempe-
rature comes back to
the normal range, the
relaywillbeenergized
again. "L32" shows
the remaining time up
to an alarm.
Overtemperature Alarm
Itispossibletoselectmax.4(5withthe'virtual')alarm
sensors (e.g. 4x "ALA"). If the temperature at one of
thealarmsensorsexceedsthecontrolsetpoint+ the
"r41" (resp. "r42", Setpoint Page) setting, an alarm
will be initiated after the delay time "r45".
Low temperature Alarm
If the temperature at any alarm sensor gets lower
than the "r43" (resp. "r44",Setpoint Page) setting,
an alarm will come on with the delay explained
above. This setting is an absolute value and does
notrefertothecontrol setpoint.Atthe sametime,this
setting works as threshold for the "low temperature
limitation" function.
Low temperature alarm can be disabled by "P41"
(Mode Page).
Supplementary alarm delay during defrost
Afteradefrostcyclethetemperaturemaytake longer
to stabilize and the normal alarm delay turns out to
be too short. For this reason the value of parameter
„d33“ (defrost page) will be added on to the normal
alarm delay after defrosting.
cooling relay normal cooling relay inverted
Heating function
One relay is able to work as a heat relay. Then the
control setpoint is the cut-off of heating and cooling
at the same time. Cut-in will be:
•
for cooling: setpoint + hysteresis (r10)
•for heating: setpoint - hysteresis (r10).
'Physical' and 'virtual' sensors
1. Each 'physical' (real) sensor is able to fulfill up to 3
functions at the same time (see Assignment Page),
any sensor is able to do the same job.
Up to 4 control sensors can be assigned the same
time. If one of them gets warmer than setpoint +
hysteresis, then cooling starts.
2. It is possible to create a 'virtual' sensor to realize
different kinds of averaging, e.g. multiple sensors in
a huge room or averaging of inlet and outlet sensor in
a chest freezer. The 'virtual' sensor resp. value (L07)
follows from the selectable emphasis of the sensors
which must have an effect on the result (h17, h27,
h37,h47,AssignmentPage).Thefunctionsassigned
to this 'sensors' (h71, h72, h73, Assignment Page)
are the same as the functions for the 'physical' sen-
sors.
Example: If the 'physical' sensor 1 got the function
"con" (control sensor) and also the 'virtual' sensor,
then the warmer one initiates refrigeration.
- Selection of a "virtual sensor":
- Assignment of a function by h71-h73
- Selection of a 'physical' sensor which must have
an effect on the result :
- Activating of the sensor by assigning a
function (e.g. display only sensor)
- Set emphasis for the selected sensor
(h17, h27, h37, h47).
The sum of all emphasis values must be
100%. Example:
If sensor 1 and sensor 2 must have an effect
on the result and you set "h17" to "30%" and
"h27"to"60%",thenyougettheerrormessage"SEL"
(assignment error).
Further causes for the error message "SEL"
- The sum of all emphasis parameters is 100%,
but no virtual sensor function is selected
- All 4 emphasis values are set to '0' and a
'virtual' sensor function is assigned
- A physical sensor is switched off, but an
emphasis value > 0 is selected.
Example 1, Chest Freezer:
For the detection of the actual value, inlet and outlet
sensor must be used. Sensor 1 is mounted at the
suction side (inlet) and must have an 60% influence
on the result. Sensor 2 is mounted at the outlet and
must have an 40% influence.
- set "h17" to "60"
- set "h27" to "40"
- set "h71" to "con" (control sensor)
Example 2, huge room, standard application
Sensors 1-3 must measure the rooms temperature,
anarithmetic average must becalculated, sensor4is
the defrost limitation sensor in the evaporator.
- set "h17", "h27" to "33" and "h37" to "34"
- set "h71" to "con" (control sensor)
- set "h41" to "df1"
Special Function
If an emphasis parameter value is set to
100% (others to 0), up to 6 functions can
beassignedtothecorrespondingphysicalsensor.
This may be of interest for applications where
more than 3 sensor functions are used.

Second setpoint (night operation)
Asecond setpoint can be defined by "r03" (Setpoint
Page). This can be used for night operation or other
energy savings. Switching between these setpoints
can be made by internal clock or by digital input.The
current used setpoint is marked by a lighted decimal
point in the parameter display. On the 'Actual Values
Page', parameter "L43" shows the current state.
Internal switching
The parameters „P21“ and „P22“ determine
the 2nd setpoint period. If the internal timer is not
used, set both times to "oFF".
External switching
The digital inputs can be configured for
external switching, selectable as "dnL"
(active low) or "dnh" (active high). After the
input has been activated, the 2nd setpoint is
active all time and the internal timer is disabled.
If you want to use external switching only,
please set „P21“ and „P22“ to "oFF".
Second Set of Setpoints
The controller offers two complete setpoint sets
including day/night setpoints and alarm limits.
Example Application: By an external switch it is
possible to change a cold room from refrigeration
to freezing for temporary storage of other products,
without changing any parameters at the controller.
Even here the currently used setpoint is marked by
a lighted decimal point in the parameter display.
Toggling between the setpoint layers
1. internal: by parameter „r01“ (Setpoint Page)
2. external: assign function „SEt“ to a digital
input. If connected to mains phase,
the 2nd layer is in use.
Light Control
One of the relays is able to control room lightings
(function "LIt"). In this case, the relay switches
together with the night settings.
While 'day'-operation the light relay keeps ener-
gized.
Emergency Operation
If all control sensors fail, the unit turns to an
emergency mode automatically. The cooling relay
cycles with a %-part (P04, Mode Page) of a 30
minutes period.
Digital Inputs (Optocoupler Inputs)
Switching OFF the controller unit
Sometimesitisnecessary toswitchoffcoldstorages
completely including the controller.
If the controller works in a network, the bus-master
so detects a malfunction and generates an alarm.
To prevent this, the unit must be switched OFF via
digital input.
Controller OFF
If a digital input is assigned to the functions "oFL"
or "oFH" and is activated by the matching signal,
then all control functions will be disabled. All alarm
functions are locked and the display shows "oFF".
Safety Chain Monitoring
When using the controller for single compressor
applications, one of the digital inputs can be used
to monitor the safety chain ("chA").
Normally the digital input is connected to phase via
this chain of contacts. If the chain opens, cooling
and fan will switch off, a running defrost cycle will be
terminated and a new defrost cycle is impossible.
Parameter "r46" defines the response time on the
missing signal voltage.
Door Contact Input
If a digital input with the function "dor" is connected
tophase,theevapfanstopsimmediately.Thecontrol
rangeoftheEEx-Valvewillbechangedautomatically
to avoid a further evaporation.
If the door is open > 3 minutes, cooling will be
stopped. All other functions continue working.
Ifthedoorisopen>5minutes,theunitgeneratesthe
error message "rdo".After the timer "r62" (Setpoint
Page) has been run down, cooling restarts and an
alarm message will be forwarded.
Door open monitoring
Every time a door is opened, the controller adds
the time to the total opening time of the present day
"L22" (Actual Values Page). If the total opening time
exceeds the value set by "r32" (Setpoint Page), an
alarm will be generated.
The alarm message will be forwarded at the point in
time determined by "P42" (Mode Page) and will be
cancelled automatically 1 hour later. "L31" shows
the remaining time up to the alarm message.
External Alarm
The digital inputs are able to process external alarm
messages. For this, the function "ALA" must be
assigned (Assignment Page).
While normal operation, the input is connected to
mainsphase.When thevoltagedrops down,a delay
timestarts("r61",SetpointPage).Afterthistimerhas
been run down, an alarm will be forwarded.
Exception:
If no alarm sensor is assigned or if
the temperature is above the alarm
limit,coolingcontinues withoutinter-
ruption. The cooling keeps switched
ON and the fan starts again, so the
door opening is ignored.
Real Time Clock
The built-in real time clock has a buffer for max. 10
days without mains voltage. Date and time can be
set by "P82"..."P87" (Mode Page).
An automatic summer / winter switch ("P81", Mode
Page)considersthecurrentEU-rulesfrom1996(EU
96), but can also be switched off.

Technical Manual Cold Storage Controller EVP 3150-1 and EVP 3150-2 Page 9
The EVP 3150-2 is able to control one (1) cold sto-
ragewith anevaporatorequipped withanElectronic
Expansion Valve (EExV).
In such applications, the EExV takes over the
jobs of the former solenoid valve and the com-
pulsive thermal expansion valve.
Expansion Valves
The EVP is able to drive pulse-width modulated,
cycling expansion valves and valves with ther-
mal drive.
ACorDCtypevalvescan beused,they are supplied
by mains voltage via SSR-relay with 2 outputs.
Missmatches valve/nozzle and evaporator will be
compensated in a wide range. Because the valves
neednohighpressuredifferencetoopen,it'spossible
to work with low condensation pressures, as long
as the configuration allows that.
From this it follows a higher COP-value for the
compressorand soanoption forenergy saving.The
energy saving depends on outdoor temperature (if
the condenser is located on the roof) and is higher
in winter than in summer.
By the optimal filling of the evaporator and the more
equable icing an additional energy saving of 2 - 5%
is possible.
Measuring Methods
The EVP is able to work with 2 measuring
methods:
1. Pressure Transmitter and Temperature Sensor
at the evaporator outlet, this is equivalent to the
arrangement of a thermal expansion valve.
2. 2 Temperature Sensors at the inlet and the
outlet of the evaporator.
Theunitalwayscontrolsthe'virtual'aperture
size of the valve to reach an optimal filling
and so the optimal efficiency ratio of the
evaporator. Period time and pulse-width of
thePWM-controlaredefinedbythecontrolalgorithm
(autoadaptive), disturbances like suction pressure
fluctuations and flashgas will be filtered out.
1. Pressure / Temperature method
Tocapturethesuperheat,apressuretransmitterwith
2-10VoutputsignalandaTF501temperaturesensor
at the evaporators outlet is used. The arrangement
of this parts is equivalent to the components of a
thermal expansion valve.
This method is strongly recommended
for single machines or plants with just a
few evaporators. The compressor can
be controlled by an external suction
pressure switch or the cooling relay of the EVP.
By this, special operating modes and an auto-
matic "pumpdown" function are possible.
Variable Overheat Control
If you get a difference by the settings of P60 (Su-
perheat, minimum value) und P65 (Superheat,
maximum value), then the superheat will be
shifted by the control algorithm within the ON-
point (setpoint+hysteresis r10) and the OFF-point
(setpoint). If the function is disabled, the superheat
value is determined by P60 only.
Function is disabled:
P65 (Superheat, maximum value) exceeds P60.
Function enabled:
P65 is below or equal to P60.

The EVP allows several, different defrost methods.
Up to 3 defrost relays can be assigned. This relay
output(s) then control an electric heater or fan which
defrost the evaporator(s).
Each evaporator with electric heater is monitored
by a defrost termination sensor.
According to the application, the fan can stop or run
during the defrost cycle.
●"d02" (Defrost Page) fixes the defrost initiation
mode.
- "Etn" : Defrost is initiated by a digital input
- "Int": Defrost can be initiated by digital
input or the internal time-switch.
- "AdA": Defrost is controlled by the intelligent
(adaptive) defrost algorithm
Electric defrost heaters are always switched by the
N/O contact of the defrost relay. "L33" shows the
remaining time up to the end of the defrost cycle.
Defrost release by internal timer
With parameters "d11"..."d16" (Defrost Page) you
set six (6) possible defrost release times. This
points-in-time can be set in 10 minute steps only,
that means a defrost time like 6:55 is impossible.
Times on the display:
The precondition for the start of a defrost cycle is
that at least one of the defrost termination sensors
detectsatemperaturebelowlimitationtemperature.
If parameter "d02" is set to "Etn" (external only), a
defrost cycle cannot be initiated by the timer.
Please note that this function differs
with the 'adaptive' defrost method
External (Remote) Defrost Initiation
To start de-icing by a digital input, note that mains
phase has to be applied for 2 seconds minimum
and last not longer than the shortest possible
defrost cycle.
Break before defrost
Parameter ‘d38’ (defrost page) effects a delayed
energizing of the heater at the beginning of the
defrost cycle. By this, the rest of the evaporators
chillness can be blown to the storage.
The defrost heaters must deliver less energy,
because the evaporator is already warmed up.
Defrost termination by temperature
TheEVPcontrollerisabletowork withupto3defrost
relays (= evaporators). Defrost is individually temi-
nated for each defrost output by the corresponding
defrost(evaporator)sensor.Thisevaporator sensor
must be placed at a position where, by experience,
iceremainsthelongesttime.Ifthetemperaturerises
at that position, the ice in the evaporator is probably
melted completely.
A defrost cycle is completed as soon as the defrost
sensor has reached the defrost limitation tempera-
ture "d31" (Defrost Page).
If 2 defrost sensors are assigned, both sensors
must achieve the limitation temperature to termi-
nate defrost.
Defrost termination by time
If no defrost sensors are assigned or if they are out
of order, the defrost cycle will be terminated after
"d32" (Defrost Page) has been run down. "L33"
shows the remaining time up to termination.
Defrost termination time monitoring
The unit captures the number of defrost cyles which
are terminated by time (min. 1 defrost term. sensor
must be assigned). If the number of defrost cycles
terminated bytimeexceedthenumberprogrammed
by "d37" (Defrost Page) an alarm message will
be generated. With this function, massive icing or
defective defrost heaters can be recognized timely
and reliable.
In case of airflow-defrost without evapora-
tor sensor, this function must be disabled
("oFF"), because here every defrost will be
terminated by timer and no alarm message
is desired.
Cooling Delay (drain time)
After defrost is terminated, the solenoid valve keeps
locked for the time set by "d35" (Defrost Page).
"L34" shows the remaining time up to the restart
of cooling.
Manual Defrost
A manual defrost initiation is possible at any time.
To start manual defrost:
Select "d50" (Defrost Page),
set it to "on" and confirm.
Stop manual defrost
Select "d50" (Defrost Page),
set it to "oFF" and confirm.
3rd position =
Minutes x 10, that
means no single

played
1st/ 2nd position =

Pulsed Defrost
To save energy it’s possible to work with a pulsed
(switched in intervals) defrost function.
If the evaporator temperature is located within "d34"
(Defrost Page) and the limitation temperature "d31"
(the value of "d34" must be lower than limitation
temperature), the controller determines about the
optimalheat distributionintheevaporatordepending
on the gradients of the temperature. The heater will
be switched on in controlled periods until the defrost
limitation temperature is reached.
The result of this procedure:
●Heat energy in the evaporator will be distributed
much better
●Defrost limitation temperature can be set to a
lower value
●Less of humidity in the chamber
●Save of energy

Intelligent Defrost (adaptive defrost) for Walk-In Coolers
Main Characteristics
This defrost control method, developed in co-
operation with the ‘GÜNTNER’ company, fits
especially for cold stores and freezers which
are closed (like walk-ins).
It is less efficient in applications where
the limitation sensor is located in the
airflow (e.g. open chest freezers).
This technique reduces significantly the
amount of energy the refrigeration plant
needs.
Especially while difficult situations (like high
air-humidity,incool-down chambers,whilelong
opening times of the door of the cold storage
room, uneven feeding of the cold storage
room, etc.) the adaptive method protects the
evaporator from glaciation safely.
Dynamic ‘room-feeding’situations engage
the controller to adapt itself to the new
situation, without expensive adjustment
by technical personnel.
Specialized sensors or additional probes
are not required.
Parameterization is very easy:
●set parameter "d02" to value "AdA"
(adaptive)
●set parameter "d05" (Defrost Page)
to a value which is 2 or 3 times the
normal defrost interval.
Within this period the algorithm
decides independly about the point
in time to defrost. After the end of this
period defrost starts in all cases.
●parameter "d04" (Defrost Page)
shows the time up to the next defrost.
● parameters "d34"
and
"d31" define the range the heater will
be pulsed within.
Process Sequence
1. If [setpoint + hysteresis > 2,5°C] the
controller uses the fan to reduce icing.
2. In the time period set by „d05“ the controller
decides itself if and at which moment a
defrost cycle is necessary. If icing is
detected, the controller prepares defrost
and begins either immediately or at the
next allowed defrost time.
3. Cooling stops, the fan goes on turning a
certain time
4. The fan stops and the defrost heater starts
5. If several evaporators are installed,
each one has its own defrost sensor and
heater relay, so it is individually heated.
6. After achieving a defined evaporator
temperature, the heater will be cut on/
off in calculated periods. The period lenghts
depend on evaporator temperature.
7. Defrost heater cut off, limit temp. is reached.
8. Cooling and fan remain still off (drain time).
9. After the end of „d35“ cooling starts, but the
fan remains still off.
10. After end of „r22“ the fan starts and normal
refrigeration goes on.
Refrigeration
Even during normal operation the fan stays on after
cut-off of cooling to reduce icing.
Recognition of icing
The more ice on the fins the more increases the
difference of temperature between the roomsensor
and evaporator sensor. The controller uses the value
of these sensors, their difference, the historic curves
of these values as well as curves and duration of
the past defrostings to calculate the necessity of
defrosting.
Use of latent energy by airflow
Werecommendtouse"d03"(defrostforerun, defrost
page) to switch on the fan several minutes ahead
the defrost cycle, while cooling stops and the heater
is not yet on.
Additionally, the fan is switched on automatically at a
certain difference between the sensors. By this, the
„cooling-energy“ is brought out of the evaporator and
stored in the chamber. This helps also to reduce the
amount of heat energy necessary to defrost.
Defrost start
If all six parameters release times are set to Off, the
controller decides itself when it starts defrost.
●Further time influence
If you want to prevent that defrost starts at
certain day-times use all the defrost release
times and set them to points in time where
defrost is allowed. If no icing is detected,
these times will be ignored.
On the other hand, once icing detected, the
controller will wait for the next defrost release
time before starting a defrost cycle.
●External command
Assign one of the digital inputs to "deF". By
applying voltage to that input it is possible to
start defrosting at every moment.
Defrost heating
When „d34“ is achieved, the heater will be cut off.
The heat energy of the resistances will dissipate
slowly and melt the ice. The length of the cut-off is
calculated by the controller and as soon as some
criteria are fulfilled, it will switch on the heater again.
The heater will be pulsed until the temperature of
the evaporator sensor reaches the defrost limitation
temperature "d31".
This procedure fits in the same way for the case of
several evaporators in the chamber.
By this way defrost period will take longer, but
will be more efficient.
Several evaporators in one chamber
For certain plants it is necessary to use several
evaporators in one chamber. The controller is able
to control up to 3 evaporators in one chamber. Even
in this case one unique room sensor is sufficient.
E.g. for a chamber with 3 evaporators you need
only 4 sensors:
● one controlsensor
● three defrost sensors (one for each evaporator)
Ifadefrostcycleisnecessary,all evaporatorswillstart
defrost at the same time to avoid short circuit of air,
when one is heating and the fan of another is turning.
The one with the highest rate of icing determines the
start of the defrost cycle. The EVP controller units are
capable to determine just this evaporator and
even to adapt it when conditions change.
Thus always the evaporator with the most ice
initiates defrost start, nevertheless the quantity of
energywhichisnecessarytodefrostwillbecalculated
for each evaporator separately.
To finish defrost cycle all evaporators must have
reached the defrost limitation temperature.
Emergency Operation Mode
In cases the controller recognizes that it would be
incapable or to slow to control the process, or when
it gets not enough information, e.g.:
● charge of unusual very humid goods
● freezer door was open a very long time
● the evaporator is sprinkled with water
● sensor broken or shortened
● defrost terminated by the max. defrost time
the emergency operation starts.
To detect malfunction of the defrost control the unit
uses the increasing of "d05".
If a defrost cycle is terminated by this time, the
controller starts several defrost events with the in-
terval corresponding to (¼) one quarter of the time
programmed by "d05".
Therefore be careful in choosing the time for
this parameter.
After the end of the disturbance the controller works
on normally.
Example
Max time to defrost is set to 24 hours. If defrost
is not terminated by the evaporator sensor,
the controller will start defrost cycle every
24 / 4 = 6 hours until a cycle will be finished by
the evaporator sensor and not by timer.
Independent from this procedure, a failure
message will be initiated.
End of defrost
When the defrost sensor has reached the defrost
limitation temperature "d31", the heater stops and
the controller waits until "d35" has expired, to allow
the melted water drop to the drainage.
While the following 'drain-on' time ("r22", Setpoint
Page) cooling starts, but the fan still stay OFF to
prevent that the fans blow warm and humid air or
water drops into the chamber.
Further information about possibilities to use
latency heat you can find under "Evaporator
Fan Control"

Technical Manual Cold Storage Controller EVP 3150-1 and EVP 3150-2Page 12
Analogue Output
The analogue output can be used for regulation
purposes or to provide a remote display with an
actual value image. The signal is available as a
DC-Voltage or a DC-Current-Signal, fixed by "h51"
(Assignment Page).
Parameter "L50" (Actual Values Page) shows the
current output signal as a %-part of the selected
range, "h52" (Assignment Page) determines the
behaviour of the output:
Test functions
"h52" = "0" output signal is 0V resp.
4 mA (fixed)
"h52" = "100 output signal is 10V resp.
20mA (fixed)
Transmission of actual values to remote displays
or similar
This function allows the analogue outputs to deliver
a mirror of measured actual value.
Normally a control probe will be used. If multiple
probes are configured, the warmest actual value will
be used. If a virtual probe is configured, this probe is
used in the same way as a real probe.
"h52" = "dIS" The output provides an image
of the value of cooling sensor 1.
U-output: -50°C = 0V,
+100°C = 10V
I-output: -50°C = 4mA,
+100°C = 20mA
Control with the analog output signal (PID-control)
"h52" = "P" PID-controller, whose output
signal represents an addition of
the components P, I, D and T1.
"h52" = "Pr" PID-controller like above, but
with inverted output (rising
temperature = falling signal).
To adapt the controller to the process use the fol-
lowing parameters:
"r51" = PID proportional band,
located symmetrically
around setpoint 1
"r52" = PID-integral time (I-part)
"r53" = PID-derivative time (D-part)
"r54" = PID-actuator response
time (T1-part)
How to influence the analog output manually
For certain applications it may be useful to affect
the output signal manually. Any digital input can be
assigned to a function "AnA". Once activated, the
analogue output delivers a predefined voltage- or
current signal, e.g. to drive a valve to a specific
position.
"h61" or "h62" set to "AnA" (Assignment Page)
= configure digital input 1 or 2
"r63" (Setpoint Page)
= amount of the output in % of the selected
range, if the digital input is activated.
Example:
Digital input OK/DI1 is configured at "h61" to the
value "AnA", "r63" is set to "50".
If the analogue output works as voltage output,
it delivers 5V DC. If it works as current output, it
delivers 12 mA.
Electronic Expansion Valves
with analogue input
The analogue output is able to control
expansion valves with analog input.
Therefore, "h52" must be set to "EEP".
Also in this case, "h51" serves as a switch
for a voltage- or current output.
PI-control, D and T1-parts de-activated
PID-control, T1-part de-activated
Control Characteristic
Actuating Variable Delay for PID
For using control processes with large reaction
times the controller offers an 'Actuating Variable
Delay'.
1. Analogue Output
If the controller sends a signal which initiates the
analogue output to rise or to fall, then an adjustable
delay time (r56, Setpoint Page) starts. Within this
time period, the output signal is able to alter only
by a specific %-part (step size, r57).
If "r57" is set to "100%" and "r56" to "0", then the
function is disabled.
2. Relay Output
In applications with motorized actuators, the
Actuating Variable Delay takes effect by clocking
the cooling resp. heating relays. If the controller
sends a signal to initiate a relay permanently ON,
an adjustable time period "r58" (Setpoint Page,
Cooling/Heating Relay Time Period) starts. Within
this period, the relay is engaged for the time set
by "r59" (Setpoint page, Cooling/Heating Relay
ON-Time).
If "r59" is equal to "r58" or exceeds it, then the
function is disabled, the relay switch as normal
again.
Reaching the The OFF-value
The OFF-value (0%) will be initiated immediately
with:
- defrost initiation
- solenoid valve lock
- safety chain error
- controller OFF
- cooling OFF with an open door

Evaporator Fan Control
Each output relay can be configured for evapo-
rator fan control. The fan control depends on the
following parameters:
P03 ..... (cooling mode, Mode Page)
"reF" = refrigeration, fan will be switched
by the N/O-contact of the fan relay
"FrE" = freezing, fan will be switched by
the N/C-contact
P02 .... (fan operation, Mode Page), defines
the characteristic of the fan during the
cooling period.
"Int" = fan runs together with solenoid
valve/compressor
"PEr" = fan runs continously while
cooling
"Add" = Using of latency heat by a special
fan control + "Special mode for room
temperatures > 2,5°C", as described in
chapter "Intelligent Defrost".
d01 .... (fan during defrost, Defrost Page),
defines the fan characteristic during
the defrost cycle.
"on“ = during defrost, fan runs
continuously
"off“ = fan is stopped during defrost.
Fan operation modes, defrost termination using electric heaters
Fan start-up (freeze-on) delay
The start-up time delay for the fan after defrosting
is defined by parameter "r22" (Setpoint Page).
This avoids that water drops will be blown into the
chamber. "L35" (Actual Values Page) show the
remaining time up to the fan will switch on.
Examples for fan operation modes
1. fan in permanent mode
This mode is mainly used in refrigerated
shelfs, refrigerated display counters and
chest freezers
● fan is directly connected to mains voltage,
not connected to the controller unit
or
● a relay is reserved for fan control, "P02" is
set to "PEr", "d01" is set to "on".
Drain-time "d35" is set to "0".
2. fan interval mode, defrost by fan
A relay is reserved for fan control, "P02" is
set to "Int", "d01" is set to "on".
3. fan interval mode, defrost by electric heater/
hot gaz:
A relay is reserved for fan control, "P02" is
set to "Int", "d01" is set to "oFF". The fan
runs while cooling is on, will be disabled
during defrost periods and comes on after
defrost with a time delay set by parameter
"r22".
4. fan in permanent mode and defrost by
electric heater
A relay is reserved for fan control, "P02" is
set to "PEr", "d01" is set to "oFF".
The fan will run continously and stops during
a defrost period only.
Chances to exploit Latency Heat
1. Fan operation mode P02 = "Add"
- If temperature falls, cooling and fan will
stop with reaching the control setpoint.
If the room temperature rises to a value
equal to Control Setpoint + 1/2 Hysteresis,
the fans restart under the condition that the
temperature of the evaporator (detected
with limitation sensor) is lower than
Control Setpoint - 1/2 Hysteresis.
So remaining coldness will be blown into the
room which reduces the number of
compressor starts.
- Evaporators can be de-iced already at
temperatures from 2°C by forced air.
When cooling stops, fans are turning on until
ice and frost are melted (limitation calculated
within 2...5°C, cooling switches on at -3K).
Thus humidity stays in the chamber which
will improve the quality of certain goods like
meat or vegetables.
Additonally to the compulsatory "fan trailing
delay" (r23, fan is forced to continue turning
aftercoolingreachedthesetpointandstopped),
the fan will turn from a specific temperature
[setpoint + hysteresis => +2,5°C] until the
evaporator sensor has reached a certain
value.
Atroomtemperatures[setpoint+hysteresis
=>+2,5°C]notify toset parameter "d05"to
a higher value, because a defrost start is
forced if this time is past.
2. Fan trailing delay
To utilize latent energy, the fan is able to run
for up to further 30 minutes after the cut-off of
valve or compressor ("r23", Setpoint Page).

Roller Blind Control
To enable the EVP to control roller blinds automati-
cally, it is necessary to assign the function "roL" to a
relay output. The roller blind control is coupled to the
day/night-mode, so the blind will be closed in night-
mode. Defrosting overrides this function and opens
the roller blind during a defrost period.
Internal control:
No digital input has got the functions "dnL"
or "dnh", but if yet, the input must be set to day-
mode. The switch times "P21" (night operat.
ON) and "P22" (night operat. OFF, Mode Page)
must be programmed.
Day-Mode: Roller blind relay is de-activated,
so the motor will turn the blind to the 'open'-
position via the relay's N/C contact.
Night -Mode: Roller blind relay will be activated
to close the blind via the N/O contact of the relay.
External control
A digital input has got the function "dnL" or
"dnh". Switch times "P21" and "P22" (night
operation on/off) must be set to "oFF".
If the digital input is activated, the relay switches on
and closes the roller blind. After de-activating the
digital input, the relay switches off and opens the
roller blind via its N/C-contact.
Frame Heater control
Frameheaters areused toavoida doorfreezingonto
the door frame. In addition it prevents condensing
water around the door or on top of the frames of
open chest freezers.
Power Optimization
To optimizethepower requirement oftheconnected
heaters, the controller is able to adapt the pulse ratio
(withinaspecificrange)tothe currenthumidityofthe
ambient air (market temperature). The information
about current market temperature and humidity
the controller gets from a superior system (VPR
5240, can also be disabled ther) to calculate the
absolute humidty.
Ifoneoftherelaysisassignedto"FrA",thiswillcontrol
the frame heater energy with a certain frequency and
pulse-width. For day and night operation you can
choose different values to save energy. The corres-
ponding parameters on Mode Page are:
To control multiple evaporators, any number of
EVP-units can be added. The units transmit their
information via the cooling/defrost relay(s) and the
digital inputs with the functions 'cooling lock' and
'forced cooling'.
Each digital input can be assigned to this functions:
rLL (cooling lock, active low):
Cooling function of the unit is disabled if
no voltage is present at the digital input
rLH (cooling lock, active high):
Cooling function of the unit is disabled if
the digital input is connected to mains phase
Principle of cascading:
The leading EVP-unit releases the cooling function of the 'slaves' via their input "cooling release". The 'slave' units lock the cooling function of the master unit
via its input 'cooling lock', as long as a defrost cycle works.
Cascading controller units to extend cold storages

Networking of controllers via E-LINK
The EVP-controller can be used as intelligent
cold storage controller in co-operation with the
compound control system VPR.
In this case, the VPR central processing unit
monitors the EVP.
When the EVP's are connected to the compound
controller, each one needs an individual address
("P90", Mode Page)
For the EVP's there is a possibility of assigning
each controller to a certain compound ("P01",
Mode Page). This enables the VPR to transmit
specific information to the cold storage control-
lers assigned to the compound where a failure
occurs. Additionally, the information exchange
allows different optmizing methods for suction and
condensing control.
Moredetailedinformationyouwillfind inthe techni-
cal manuals of the VPR compound systems.
Behavior in case of a compound failure
If an EVP is assigned to a certain compound and a
disturbance occurs, the unit responds as follows:
● The solenoid valves close
● The fan switches off
● A defrost will be terminated. A new defrost
period is only possible after the compound
problem is solved.
To see if this function is released, look at
"L41" (Actual Values Page).
"0" = solenoid valve closed
"1" = solenoid valve open
"oFF" = solenoid valve closed via interface
The EVP can be networked together with other
ELREHA control devices via an RS-485-2-wire
databus, which enables up to 78 controllers to
communicate. For communication, the E-LINK
transmission protocol is used.
Each controller in a network has its individual
address("P90",ModePage).Thedatatransmission
rate is factory set to "Aut(o)", this means that it will
beidentifiedautomatically.Ifnecessary,theratecan
also be set manually ("P91", Mode Page).
This address is necessary for selecting the right
controller when a data package is transmitted on
the network bus. If the controller is used outside a
network, these parameters are of no importance.
Remote control at Frontend Systems
EVP controllers can be operated remotely via
interface when they are connected to Frontend
Systems such as SMZ or VPR.
Inthiscase, theFrontend SystemshowstheEVP's
display contents and the keys of the frontend work
as if they where the keys of the EVP.
Wiring of data lines
The scheme beside shows briefly, how dataline
wiring of several controllers is made. At each con-
troller,theshieldhastobeconnectedtothenearest
ground terminal. Also the ground connector of the
controller and terminal #28 must be connected to
the nearest ground terminal.
This will assure good interference suppression,
even for long datalines between the controllers.
Communication with the VPR Compound Controller System
Configuration / Service via PC
The controller can be linked to a PC via its RS-485
interface. By using the PC-software „Coolvision-
MES“, parameters can be changed, they can be
saved to the hard disk (download) and can be send
to other controllers (upload).
To do this, the PC must be equipped with an RS-
485 interface (internal card or an converter of the
SSC-series).
Data transmission disturbances
If the controller gets no new information from
the VPR, it continues working with the current
settings.
If there was an order from the VPR to close the
solenoid valves and a technical defect interupts
the data transmission for more than 30 minutes,
the EVP ignores this order and starts working
normally.
When data transmission is restored, the EVP will
workagainimmediatelyaccordingtothecommands
of the VPR.

Installation / Start-Up
Upon applying voltage to the controller, after a few seconds the display
shows the parameter which is selected as permanent display or an actual
error code.
Start-up sequence
• Assign inputs/outputs to functions (see example on page 3)
• Select type of used temperature sensors ("P35", Mode Page),
use TF 501 types for EEx-valves.
• Correct the displayed temperature values if necessary
("P31"-"P34", Mode Page).
• Set date and time ("P81"-"P87", Mode Page)
• Set defrost mode ("d02", Defrost Page)
• Set fan mode "d01" and "P02"
• Set cooling mode "P03" (Mode Page)
• See page 9 for parameterization of the pressure transmitter inputs
These are the most important steps for the basic configuration of the controller.
Upon that, adapt the other parameters like temperature setpoint, hysteresis,
delay times.... Refer to the previous chapters in this manual.
Start-up in a data network
• Set the address of the controller ("P90", Mode Page)
• Upload parameters from PC to controller
The EVP offers several status messages, which enables you to check the
states of inputs and outputs:
• "L50", value of the analogue output
• "L60", state of the digital inputs DI1 and DI2
• "L61", state of the relays
Sensor positions for EEx-Valve Control,
Pressure Transmitter / Temperature Sensor Method
The pressure transmitter must be mounted at the suction pipe, at a position
where no pressure decrease can affect the measuring. The best place is
close to the evaporator. If there are several evaporators, select a position
from where the distance to all evaporators is as short as possible.
Selection of Pressure Transmitter
To detect a pressure transmitter malfunction, the signal voltage input is
scalable. So you can use e.g. transmitters with an 2...10V output which
makes it easier to recognize a malfunction.
Number of controllers working with the same pressure
transmitter
The input resistance of the pressure transmitter input is 80 kOhm. Several
inputs can be connected in parallel, but the resulting resistance must not
fall below the minimum specifications of the used pressure transmitter.
In practise, up to 10 controllers mostly work trouble-free.
Sensor positions for EEx-Valve control,
Temperature Sensors Method
*= alternative positions for Outlet-Sensor
Please care for a good isolation
by foamed material, so that none
of the sensors get contact with
the airflow.
Pipe mounting
Most expedient is it to use cable fixers, some thermal conduction silico-
ne cares for a good thermal flow.
Metallic fixers with high mass are not qualified.
Sensor Positions
Sensor positions are not critical in stan-
dard applications. The control sensor
or alarm sensor has to be fixed behind
the evaporator (air-inlet) or at a repre-
sentative place in the chamber, but not
in the air outlet.
Thesecondsensor(defrostterm-inati-
onsensor,evaporatorsensor)should
be assembled in the contact pipe or
within the fins of the evaporator. Agood
thermalexchangetothefinsisimportant.
Itshould beplacedatthepositionwhere
the ice remains the longest time while
a defrost cycle.
Sensors for intelligent (adaptive)
defrost
To detect icing the EVP doesn't need
additional sensors. The control sensor
and the defrost (evap.) sensor are suf-
ficient. Please note that the emergency
defrost mode is not able to prevent ice-
clusters or slow glacieration in case of a
incorrect sensor position. If ice-clusters
appear, the defrost sensor must be
placed at this position.
After start-up, Please check the position of the
evaporator sensors accurately!!
This manual, which is part of the product, has been set up with care and our best knowledge, but mistakes are still possible. Technical details
can be changed without notice, especially the software. Please note that the described functions are only valid for units containing the software
with the version-number shown on page 1 of this manual. Units with an other version number may work a little bit different.
