1.1 PLEASE READ BEFORE USING THIS MANUAL

 This manual is part of the product and should be kept near the instrument for easy and quick
reference.
 The instrument shall not be used for purposes different from those described hereunder. It cannot be
used as a safety device.
 Check the application limits before proceeding.
 Dixell Srl reserves the right to change the composition of its products, even without notice, ensuring
the same and unchanged functionality.

1.2 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

 Check the supply voltage is correct before connecting the instrument.
 Do not expose to water or moisture: use the controller only within the operating limits avoiding sudden
temperature changes with high atmospheric humidity to prevent formation of condensation
 Warning: disconnect all electrical connections before any kind of maintenance.
 Fit the probe where it is not accessible by the End User. The instrument must not be opened.
 In case of failure or faulty operation send the instrument back to the distributor or to “Dixell S.r.l.” (see
address) with a detailed description of the fault.
 Consider the maximum current which can be applied to each relay (see Technical Data).
 Ensure that the wires for probes, loads and the power supply are separated and far enough from each
other, without crossing or intertwining.
 In case of applications in industrial environments, the use of mains filters (our mod. FT1) in parallel
with inductive loads could be useful.

2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XRB06CX, 32x74x60mm format, is a microprocessor based controller suitable for applications
on medium or low temperature ventilated refrigeration units. It has 3 relay outputs to control
compressor, fans and lights. The device is also provided with 3 NTC probe inputs: the first one for
temperature control, the second one to be located onto the evaporator to control the defrost
termination temperature and to manage the fan and the third, optional, to control the condenser 4.3 AUTOMATIC ENERGY SAVING ALGORITHM
temperature. There is also a configurable digital input. By using the HOT-KEY it is possible to program
the instrument in a quick and easy way. This will be used when ErA=Aut. The operations are controlled by using the Aid parameter. After
powering on the device, it automatically starts to analyze the temperature behavior by using the only
room temperature probe. In this way it can build the best energy saving model according to the
3 REGULATION application. The device uses temperature behavior information of the previous Aid interval to manage

5 EXTRA COOLING FUNCTION 7.3 AUTOMATIC DURATION DETECTION

When a defrost operation is performed by compressor stop (means by stopping the compressor and by
activating the internal ventilators), it will be possible to use an automatic defrost mode by setting tdF=ALt. In
this case the device will use the evaporator probe (which MUST to be present and properly mounted on the
evaporator surface) to detect the end of the actual defrost phase. In any case, a maximum period of time
(MdF) and an upper evaporator temperature value will be used to stop the current defrost phase. If ErA=Aut,
the automatic defrost mode will activate a defrost at the beginning of any energy saving mode period. In this
case the idF delay is used as safety function. It forces the controller to activate a defrost operation when idF
runs. NOTE: during the defrost phase the loads (compressor and evaporator fans) will be controlled from the
defrost algorithm.
