Danfoss AK-CC 550B Instructions
Product Information and Operation Manual This section provides essential identification and schematic information for the Danfoss AK-CC 550B controller. Identification: Features a diagram of the controller unit with model number AK-CC 550B and identification code 084B8032. Dimensions: Illustrates the physical dimensions of the unit: 180 mm width, 100 mm height, and 61.5 mm depth. Principle: A schematic diagram shows the basic operational principle, including sensor inputs (S2, S3, S4, S5) and output connections. AKV Info: A wiring diagram illustrating connections for a 230 V a.c. coil, relevant for AKV type expansion valves. Additional Information: The controller is available with manuals in multiple languages, including English, German, French, Danish, Spanish, Italian, Swedish, and Dutch. Further information and documentation are available at www.danfoss.com. The controller is supplied with signs indicating default application settings. Users can replace these signs to match their specific application requirements. The diagrams on pages 2 and 3 illustrate ten different application wiring configurations, detailing sensor inputs (S2-S6, S3B, S5B), digital inputs (DI1-DI3), analog inputs (AI1-AI7), digital outputs (DO1-DO6), and communication interfaces (EKA Display, RS485, MODBUS, RJ45). Each application represents a distinct setup for various refrigeration system control scenarios. Proper installation of data communication cables (MODBUS, DANBUSS, RS 485) is crucial and must comply with specific requirements, as detailed in literature RC8AC. The document outlines connections for System Managers/Gateways (e.g., AK-SM, AKA 245) and displays (EKA 163/164) for both short (L < 15 m) and long (L > 15 m) cable runs. This section details the controller's inputs, outputs, and communication interfaces. It includes a comprehensive table mapping applications (1-10) to specific output (DO1-DO6), digital input (DI1-DI3), and analog input (AI1-AI7) configurations. Input and Output Descriptions: Detailed descriptions of the digital outputs (DO1-DO6) and their associated functions: Digital Input DI3: A high voltage input (0/230 V AC) with functions defined in parameter o84. Data Communication: Emphasizes correct installation of data communication cables and refers to literature RC8AC. Electric Noise: Advises keeping sensor, DI, and data communication cables separate from other electrical cables, using separate cable trays and maintaining a distance of at least 10 cm. Long cables at DI inputs should be avoided. Installation Considerations: Warns against accidental damage, poor installation, or site conditions leading to malfunctions. Stresses that electronic controls are not a substitute for good engineering practice. Danfoss is not responsible for damage resulting from defects. Installers must check installations thoroughly and fit safety devices. Notes the importance of signals during compressor stop and the need for liquid receivers. Coordinated Defrost: Explains coordinated defrosting via cable connections and data communication, ensuring refrigeration resumes when all controllers release the defrost signal. Coordination settings are managed in the gateway/system manager. Display: The controller features a three-digit display that can show temperature in °C or °F. LEDs: Indicate operational status: = Refrigeration, = Defrost, = Fan running. LEDs flash during alarms, allowing error code download and alarm acknowledgment. Buttons: Used for menu navigation and setting adjustments. Pushing the upper button accesses the parameter codes. The upper/lower buttons adjust values, and the middle button confirms selections and saves changes. Examples: Step-by-step guides are provided for setting menus, adjusting temperature, handling alarm codes, and initiating manual defrost. Get a Good Start: A quick start procedure involves opening parameter r12 (stop regulation), selecting electrical connections, setting parameter o61 (electric connection number), choosing preset settings from a table, selecting the refrigerant (o30), starting regulation (r12), and reviewing/adjusting factory settings. Preset Settings Table: Parameter o62 is used to select the array of preset settings. Parameter o30 is used to select the refrigerant. This section provides a detailed survey of controller parameters, categorized by function. Each parameter is listed with its code, description, relevant EL-diagram page, minimum/maximum/factory/actual values, and applicability across different applications (1-10). Note: Parameter values are indicative and may vary based on specific configurations and firmware versions. Fault Messages: The controller provides detailed fault messages. In case of an error, LEDs flash and the alarm relay activates. Pressing the top button displays the alarm report. Messages are classified as A-alarms (delayed visibility) and E-alarms (immediate visibility). The table below lists common alarm codes, their descriptions, associated alarm relay groups (P41), and their corresponding operating status codes. Operating Status: The controller indicates its operational state through status codes (S0-S48). Examples include 'Normal regulation', 'Waiting for end of coordinated defrost', 'Refrigeration stopped by main switch', and 'Defrost sequence. Defrost in progress'. Other Displays: Indicates conditions like 'The defrost temperature cannot be displayed', 'Defrost in progress / First cooling after defrost', 'Password required', and 'Regulation is stopped via main switch'. *) Emergency cooling activates if a defined S3 or S4 sensor signal is lost. Regulation continues with an average cut-in frequency. Data Communication: Alarm destination settings allow customization of alarm logging, relay activation, and network transmission. This section continues the detailed parameter survey and includes service-related information. Note: Service parameters may have specific access restrictions or require regulation to be stopped. Factory settings are indicated for standard units.1. Identification, Dimensions, Principle, and AKV Info
