1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
This manual contains information to aid in the installation
and operation of the Sporlan S3C Case Control system. To
use this manual it is recommended to:
1. Find your application in Section 6; review the set-up,
piping and wiring diagrams.
2. Use Section 5 to help with component installation.
3. For any settings that are not covered under initial set-
up, refer to Section 11.
4. To access Service features, reference Section 19.
1.2 PRODUCT SUMMARY
The S3C Case Control system provides Control, Monitoring
and Service Support for remote and self-contained Refrig-
erated Display Fixtures. The system supports open proto-
col communication (BACnet, MODBUS) with other control
systems that allows integration into an enterprise wide net-
work of control subsystems. The S3C Case Control system
is designed to facilitate both installation and integration by
the Refrigerated Fixture OEM as well as retrofit into existing
supermarket refrigeration control installations. Control-
ler configuration and network integration are automated
where possible and simplified when an automatic solution
is not feasible.
The S3C Case Control system is capable of coordinated con-
trol of a refrigerated case line-up (remote display fixtures
on a parallel compressor refrigeration rack circuit/loop).
Coordination of defrost, lighting control, temperature con-
trol and controller configuration is made possible via peer
to peer communication between S3C Case Controllers. The
system supports 1 – 8 display cases per line-up.
The S3C Case Control system can also operate as a stand
alone case control subsystem scheduling and performing
defrost, temperature control, lighting control, etc. As well
as coordinating functionality with a supervisory front end
system (Building Automation Systems or BAS) when avail-
able and connected. The S3C Case Control always performs
local control of all attached control components (valves,
fans, etc.) to maintain temperature and superheat control
using locally attached sensing devices and internal control
algorithms.
The control system includes a case controller, display and
valve module. The system can control display cases with
single or multiple evaporators. Evaporator locations are
identified left to right, when standing in front of the case.
For tub cases, the front is the side opposite the fans. To stan-
dardize and provide clarity, the following figure can be ref-
erenced for multi coil cases and should be used with this
manual.

Bulletin 100-50-9.1 – Page 7
The S3C Case Control is equipped with the required
inputs and outputs for advanced control of medium and
low temperature refrigerated display cases in a variety of
configurations.
1. One stepper motor driven valve. This can be
configured for multiple valve types and control of
either an electronic expansion valve (EEV) or electronic
evaporator pressure regulating valve (EEPR). Short
circuit protection and open circuit detection is
incorporated.
2. Two 0 – 10V DC outputs for controlling dimmable LED
lighting and variable speed fans.
3. One Solid State Relay output for control of Liquid Line
Solenoid or Pulse EEVs.
4. One Form C relay output for evaporator fan control.
5. One Form A relay output for lighting control.
6. One Form C relay output for control of defrost. (Heater
Contactor, Drain Heater, Hot Gas Valve, etc.)
7. One 5V logic output for control of an external Solid State
relay for switching Anti-Sweat Heaters.
8. Three Digital inputs; One Door Switch, one Service
Switch and one User configurable.
9. Five Thermistor Temperature Sensor inputs (2K, 3K,10K
selectable) for Coil Outlet, Discharge Air, Return Air,
Defrost Termination and One Auxiliary.
10. One Pressure Transducer input with 5V excitation
voltage.
11. One Clogged Drain Sensor input.
12. One Occupancy Sensor input.
13. One Ambient Temperature/Humidity sensor input.
14. Two Ethernet RJ-485 Connectors, One RS-485
connection.
2. SYSTEM COMPONENTS
2.1 S3C CASE CONTROL
DIP Switch
2.2 S3C VALVE MODULE
The S3C Valve Module expands the control capabilities of
the S3C control system by providing additional inputs and
outputs required for more complex applications.
1. Two stepper motor driven valves. These can be
configured for multiple valve types and control of
either two additional EEVs or one EEV and an EEPR.
Short circuit protection and open circuit detection is
incorporated.
For control of an EEPR with the S3C Valve Module
set the "DIP Switches" 1 – 3 in the down position. For
control of 1 – 2 EEV(s) with the S3C Valve Module set
the "DIP Switches" 1 up and 2, 3 in the down position.
See System Operation section for more information on
configuration and set-up. Note: DIP switch 4 does
not affect valve operation.
2. One Solid State Relay output for control of Liquid Line
Solenoid or Pulse EEVs.
3. Six Thermistor Temperature Sensor inputs (2K, 3K, 10K
selectable) for two Coil Outlet, two Discharge Air and
two Defrost Termination.
4. One Pressure Transducer input with 5V excitation
voltage.

The S3C Display Module (DM) is the local user interface for
the S3C Case Control system. Power and communications
comes from the S3C Case Control. Visual indication of
control and case status is presented using illuminated
icons. Additionally, "Quick View" multi-color LEDs indicate
operating status at a glance. Six front panel buttons and a
four character LED display provide user interaction with
the system. Navigation of a simplified and intuitive series
of menus using the buttons provides user control for
viewing and setting of system parameters and presentation
of current process values. One button password protected
access to Service functions and manual Defrost initiation
simplify common service and maintenance tasks.

2.5 S3C DISPLAY MODULE OPERATING
DISPLAYS
Normal Cooling (Default Display)
FIGURE 1 - Low Temperature Applications
(Note Blue Quick Views)
FIGURE 2 - Medium Temperature Applications
(Note Green Quick Views)
During the normal refrigeration cycle, the current tempera-
ture as measured by the Discharge Air sensor is prominently
displayed along with the units of measure. The and
icons are illuminated indicating refrigeration mode and
evaporator fan on status. Note: the icon is illuminated
when the system is in refrigeration mode and refrig-
erant is feeding the evaporator coil (i.e. all valves are
open allowing flow). A quick glance at this icon shows
that the EEV, EEPR (if used) and liquid line solenoid valve (if
used) are either open or closed during refrigeration mode.
The Quick View indicators are illuminated BLUE for low
temperature operation or GREEN for medium temperature
operation indicating the current temperature is within the
user set temperature alarm limits.
During the defrost cycle when the termination temperature
is satisfied or the fail-safe time has elapsed, the defrost
mechanism will deactivate. After any user set drip cycle time
has elapsed, the S3C will resume refrigeration changing the
Quick View indicators to BLUE or GREEN and illuminating
the icon. The icon remains off until the fans restart in
accordance with the fan delay time or temperature setting.
The display will return to the default temperature when the
control temperature is within 5°F of setpoint or 30 minutes
has elapsed.
Defrost Pumpdown Active
Defrost Terminated/Pulldown Active
When a defrost cycle is entered, the system will first go
into pumpdown mode to remove any refrigerant from the
evaporator. During this mode, the temperature display is
replaced with def and the Quick View indicators will turn
off. The fans will continue to run and the icon will be
illuminated until the end of the pumpdown time.
When a defrost cycle is active, the Quick View indicators
change to PURPLE. e icon illuminates when the
defrost mechanism is active. e S3C Display Module (DM)
will continue to display def throughout the entire defrost
cycle.
Defrost Active

Temperature Out of Range
If the measured Discharge Air temperature transgresses the
user selected high or low alarm thresholds, the Quick View
indicators will change to ORANGE.
Temperature Alarm
If the measured Discharge Air temperature transgresses the
user selected high or low alarm thresholds for the appropriate
alarm delay period the  icon illuminates.
Service Required Alarm
e icon illuminates as an indication that an alarm
condition exists not related to case temperature such as a
faulty sensor, loss of peer – peer communication, disconnected
EEPR or EEV, etc.
