2. Main characteristic
IEV is an electronic controller designed for the management of one or two stepper motors (unipolar or
bipolar) of electronic expansion
valves .
IEV is available with a single driver for use with single gas circuit (IEV22D) or double drivers for
applications in two gas circuits (IEV24D).
IEV is compatible with several types of refrigerant and the main valves available in the market.
Two different regulation are available:
• STAND ALONE: the digital inputs are used to start the superheat control. Evaporating pressure
transducer and suction temperature probe has to be connected to the IEV;
• LAN: the IEV can be connected to the Ichill 200 EVO series to control the machine (chiller or heat
pump) and the superheat.
Evaporating temperature probe has to be connected to the IEV and suction pressure transducer can be
connected to the IEV or to the Ichill (by configuring dedicated parameters).
To guarantee the best regulation is recommended to connect the suction pressure transducer directly to
the IEV.
Main features:
• management of one or two electronic expansion valves
• compatibility with several models of valve
• compatibility with different types of refrigerant gas
• manual control of PID regulation or adaptive regulation
• digital inputs to start regulation in STD_ALONE configuration
• LAN connection with IC 200 EVO family controllers
• double- digit display for simultaneous multiple information

3.3 Screen display
The variables (suction temperature, evaporation pressure, superheating value, opening value of the
valve, etc.) that are to be viewed on the upper and lower displays are selected via the special parameter
(Ec43 and Ec44).
Press the key to view the variables (suction temperature, evaporation pressure, superheating
value, etc.) of valve 1 or valve 2. The icons, which represent the state of the valve (icon ON if
the valve is adjusting), are always displayed, even if the currently displayed variables are those of the
other valve.
If the variables of valve 1 are shown on the display, only the icons belonging to valve 1 are viewed (V1,
, open, close), except for the status icon ( ).

, open, close), except for the status icon ( ).
The alarms are shown in the lower display, regardless whether they belong to valve 1 or 2. The alarms
are shown alternately with the value that appears in the lower display under normal conditions. If the
probe that is to be displayed is in error, "----" appears instead of the value.

3.12 Temperature and Pressure Parameter Values
All parameters that indicate a temperature or pressure can be expressed in degrees Celsius/bar or
Fahrenheit/PSI, according to parameter Ec41 that sets the unit of measurement.
Modifying the Ec41 parameter from Celsius/bar to Fahrenheit/PSI and vice versa does not involve
an automatic update of the parameters from one unit of measurement to the other. Therefore, the
operator must check all the parameters concerning temperature and pressure in order to modify them
accordingly.
In particular, by modifying the Ec41 parameter from °C/bar to °F/PSI:
•the value of the temperature and pressure parameters are multiplied by 10 (with no
decimal).
Modifying the Ec41 parameter from °F/PSI to °C/bar:
•the value of the temperature and pressure parameters are divided by 10 (with a decimal).
When the instrument is switched on, the parameters are verified and modified if they are out of
the specified range of values.
