1. INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION

1.1 General description

The model e34B is a microprocessor based digital electronic

temperature controller that is typically used in cooling applica-

tions with ON/OFF temperature control and defrost control

at time intervals, by arrival at temperature or by length of time

of continuous compressor operation through stopping the

compressor, electric heating or hot gas/cycle inversion.

The controller is equipped with special defrost optimization

functions and with other functions that can be used to obtain

energy savings from the controlled system.

The instrument has up to 4 relay outputs and up to 3 NTC

temperature probes inputs one of which can be conﬁg-

ured as digital input.

The instrument has an internal buzzer for the acoustic

alarms signalling and a voltage alarm system that deacti-

vates the outputs if the mains voltage is too high/low.
