Ranco has been a leader in electromechanical controls for commercial refrigeration for over fifty years. Ranco also manufactures and markets a growing family of electronic controls that provide enhanced functionality and reliability in response to the needs of today's marketplace.


 

TYPICAL ELECTRONIC CONTROLS

 
ERC-248 Electronic Defrost Control  
The ERC-248 electronic defrost control is designed to control the timing of defrost cycles in commercial refrigeration equipment such as reach-in's, walk-in's, and refrigerated fixtures.
  • Compact design.
  • Simple selectable settings:
    • Defrost interval (from 2 to 48 hours).
    • Defrost duration (from 1 to 63 minutes).
    • 50 or 60 Hz operation.
  • Two defrost types:
    • Timed interval.
    • Accumulated Compressor run time.
  • Three types of defrost termination:
    • Temperature (requires external thermostat).
    • Pressure (requires external pressure switch).
    • Time duration only

  • Time backup feature terminates the defrost cycle based on time should the external termination device fail to function.
  • Manual Defrost can be accomplished by means of a push button if desired.
  • Microprocessor-based design assures high reliability and accuracy.
  • Cost effective solution.

 

ERC-2 Electronic Refrigeration Control

The ERC­2 series control provides complete refrigeration control for many types of commercial refrigeration equipment such as reach-in's, walk-in's, condensing units, and other refrigerated fixtures.

  • Offers complete control functionality, replacing a defrost control, temperature control, defrost termination switch, thermometer, and fan delay switch.
  • Usable with electric heat, hot gas, or off-cycle defrost.
  • Electronic control offers more reliable and accurate operation while allowing control parameters to be customized for each application.
  • The control incorporates a digital display module that provides readout of time, temperature, and diagnostics. The digital display module also has a touch keypad for simple programming of desired control parameters.
  • The digital display module can be remotely mounted and connected to the ERC-2 with a simple telephone jack cable or mounted directly on the ERC-2 case.
  • Incorporates a real time clock.
  • Case incorporates the same size and mounting footprint as the industry standard 8000 series Paragon defrost controls.
  • Includes two temperature sensors (space and coil temperature).
  • UL component recognition, CSA listed, NSF approved.
  • 120 or 208/240 VAC 50/60 Hz operation.

High output relays for equipment control

Compressor - 1 HP @ 120 VAC; 1.5 @ 208 VAC; 2 HP @ 240 VAC 96 LRA/16 FLA @ 120 VAC; 72 LRA/12 FLA @ 240 VAC.

Defrost Means - 16 amps resistive @ 120 - 208/240 VAC Pilot duty 470 VA @ 120 - 208/240 VAC.

Evaporator Fan - 1/2 HP @120 VAC;34 HP @208 VAC; 1 HP @240 VAC.

Alarm - 5 amps resistive at 120 - 208/240 VAC.

  • Wide ambient condition operating range -40F to 122F; 0 - 95% RH.
  • Operating parameters can be pre-programmed by Ranco.
  • The ERC-2 incorporates a capacitor that retains the time of day for up to 100 hours after a power failure.
  • All other program parameters and settings are maintained in an EEPROM processor which means that these are permanently saved, regardless of the duration of any power outage.
  • If there is a sensor failure, the ERC-2 can detect this and revert to a backup operating mode until the sensor can be replaced.

ETC Electronic Thermostat

The ETC electronic thermostat, like its ET85 counterpart, utilizes microprocessor technology to provide a very user-friendly programmable one or two stage thermostat that offers unparalleled flexibility of use. Applications are numerous; including refrigerated fixtures of all types as well as many HVAC applications that incorporate one or two stages of heating and/or cooling.

 
  • Wide temperature range (-30° F to 220° F).
  • Adjustable differential range (1° F to 30° F).
  • LCD Digital Display shows
    • Temperature at the sensor.
    • Control settings.
    • Relay status.
    • Onboard diagnostics.
  • Simple Key Pad settings.
  • Remote temperature sensing
  • up to 400 feet.
  • Selectable Heat or Cool modes.
  • Selectable Fahrenheit or Celsius modes.
  • One Horsepower output relay.
  • Concealed lockout switch to prevent tampering.
  • Both one and two stage models available.
  • 0­10 VDC analog output available.
  • Settings retained in the event of a power failure.
  • Sensor included with control.
