Wiring Key Points:
- Stromversorgung: Connect 230V AC to the designated terminals.
- Sensoren: Connect the two temperature sensors (S1, S2) to their respective terminals.
- Relaisausgänge: Connect the compressor, fan, and auxiliary loads to their corresponding relay terminals. The diagram specifies maximum current ratings for each output (e.g., COOL: 12(9)A 250V~, FAN: 5(4)A 250V~, AUX: 8(4)A 250V~).
- Digitale Eingänge: Utilize terminals for programmable digital inputs such as door switches or external alarms.
4.3 Erstes Einschalten
After wiring, apply power to the controller. The display should illuminate, showing the current temperature or an initial setup prompt.
5. Bedienungsanleitung
The AKO D-14323 offers various programmable parameters to suit different refrigeration needs.
5.1 Grundlegende Bedienung
- Temperaturanzeige: The main display shows the current temperature measured by the primary sensor.
- Set-Taste: Drücken Sie zum view or modify the setpoint temperature. Hold to enter parameter programming mode.
- ESC-Taste: Used to exit menus or cancel changes.
- Pfeiltasten nach oben/unten: Used to adjust values in programming mode or manually initiate defrost (if configured).
- Netzschalter: Turns the unit on/off or acts as a reset in some configurations.
5.2 Einstellen des Temperatursollwerts
- Drücken Sie die SATZ button briefly. The current setpoint will flash.
- Verwenden Sie die Up or Runter Mit Pfeiltasten kann die gewünschte Temperatur eingestellt werden.
- Drücken SATZ again to confirm and save the new setpoint, or ESC ohne zu speichern verlassen.
5.3 Advanced Parameter Programming
To access advanced parameters (e.g., defrost cycles, differential, auxiliary relay functions), hold the SATZ button for several seconds until the first parameter code appears. Navigate using the arrow buttons and press SATZ to enter/confirm values. Refer to the detailed programming guide (usually provided separately or available from AKO) for a complete list of parameters and their functions.
5.4 Defrost Cycle Management
The controller supports various defrost methods, including controlling the compressor, resistance heaters, or fans. Defrost parameters can be adjusted to optimize performance based on the application. An optional probe allows defrosting by temperature.
6. Wartung
Regelmäßige Wartung gewährleistet optimale Leistung und verlängert die Lebensdauer Ihres Temperaturreglers.
- Reinigung: Reinigen Sie die Frontplatte regelmäßig mit einem weichen, fusselfreien Tuch.amp Tuch. Keine Scheuer- oder Lösungsmittel verwenden.
- Inspektionen: Überprüfen Sie regelmäßig die Kabelverbindungen auf festen Sitz und Anzeichen von Verschleiß oder Korrosion.
- Sensorprüfung: Ensure temperature sensors are securely in place and free from damage.
For any internal maintenance or repairs, contact a qualified technician.
7. Fehlerbehebung
If you encounter issues with your AKO D-14323 controller, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Mögliche Ursache | Lösung |
|---|---|---|
| Anzeige ist leer | Keine Stromversorgung; falsche Verkabelung | Prüfen Sie die Stromanschlüsse und stellen Sie sicher, dass eine 230-V-Versorgung anliegt. Überprüfen Sie die Verkabelung anhand des Schaltplans. |
| Falsche Temperaturanzeige | Faulty sensor; sensor not properly connected or placed | Check sensor connections. Replace sensor if damaged. Ensure sensor is correctly positioned in the controlled environment. |
| Compressor/Fan not operating | Setpoint issue; relay fault; wiring error; parameter misconfiguration | Verify setpoint and differential settings. Check wiring to the compressor/fan. Review advanced parameters for correct configuration. |
