• Microprocessor-based controller

• Anti-short cycle time delay (selectable 0, 3, 5 or 10 minutes)

• Input power supply: 24VAC, 50/60 HZ
• Power consumption: 4 VA @ 24 VAC (board only)
• Output (compressor): SPST relay contact
• Output (fault): Solid state, TRIAC
• Relay output current: 1000 mA continuous

During normal operation of the compressor, contacts 5 and 6 will be energized, as well as the safety contacts that are in series with contact 6 and the compressor’s contactor. In this state, the warning flag (in the processor’s memory) will remain reset and normal operation will continue.

If during normal operation safety contact(s) opens, the warning flag will be set and the compressor will shut off immediately. Terminals 5 and 6 will open for the duration of the selected anti-short cycle time delay (ASTD). Upon completion of this delay, contact 5, followed by 6, will re-energize. At this time there are two possible outcomes to this scenario:

A - If the safety contact(s) is still open, the board will immediately go into lock-out mode, so that contacts 5 and 6 will be opened and the TRIAC output at terminal 4 (alarm output) will be activated.

OR

B - If the safety contact(s) is now closed, the compressor will start running again. However, the warning flag will remain set. If a safety contact(s) opens, the related compressor will immediately go into lock-out mode.

Under condition B, the warning flag will be reset after 30 minutes of successful running of the compressor. In test mode, the 30 minutes for warning flag will be reduced to 4 seconds.

When the thermostat is satisfied, the warning flag will be reset.

The board is equipped with one green LED that indicates power to the board. Two red LEDs indicate the lock-out condition for each compressor.

After power interruption, a unique time delay of 0–60 seconds for random start begins to avoid simultaneous start of multi-unit applications.

Terminal Designation

Jumper Settings

Three sets of five position jumpers (J1, J2 & J3) are used to select functions as per tables below. Only one shunt should be applied to each jumper (except J3 in test mode).

The ETCLO-830 is designed for class 2 circuits and should be powered by an UL recognized class 2 24 VAC transformer.

• Microprocessor-based controller
• Anti-short cycle timer delay (3 or 5 minutes fixed)
• Built-in automatic warning flag setting to monitor the fault for a period of 30 minutes from the first fault signal
• TRIAC output fault for alarm signal
• LED status indicators (power and fault)

• Input power supply: 24VAC, 50/60 HZ
• Power consumption: 4 VA @ 24 VAC (board only)
• Output (compressor): SPST relay contact
• Output (fault): Solid state, TRIAC
• Relay output current: 1000 mA continuous
• Operating conditions: -40 to +167°F Temp, 10% to 90% RH
• Dimensions (LxWxH): 2” x 2.375” x 1.250” Mounted in Snap-Track (provided)

When the thermostat demands for cooling, terminal 3 will be energized. Assuming that all safeties (HP & LP) that are connected in series with terminal 3 are closed, the warning flag (in the processor memory) will remain reset and normal operation will continue.

If during normal operation (thermostat contact closed) any safeties contact(s) opens, the warning flag will be set, the compressor will be shut off immediately and terminal 3 will open. This state will remain for the duration of the selected anti-short cycle delay.

Upon completion of the anti-short cycle delay, terminal 3 will re-energize. At this time, the controller monitors the operation of the safeties and takes decision based on:

A - If the safety contact(s) are still open, the board will immediately go into lock-out mode, so that terminal 3 will be opened, and the TRIAC output at terminal X will be activated (board will go into lock-out mode).

OR

B - If the safety contact(s) are now closed, the compressor will start running again. The warning flag will remain set. If safety contact(s) opens, the board will forfeit the anti short cycle delay and will immediately go into lock-out mode.

The warning flag will be reset after a 1⁄2 hour (30 minutes) of successful continuous compressor running.

Also, when the thermostat is satisfied, the warning flag will be reset.

The board is equipped with two LEDs. The green LED indicates power to the board. The red LED indicates the lock-out condition.
