June 2013
EC3-D72 is the superheat controller with TCP/IP connection for step-
per motor driven Electrical Control Valves EX4...EX6 and is optimized
to operate with the Copeland Digital Scroll series utilising a 0-10V input
from a third party controller. The controller synchronises the PWM digital
compressor solenoid valve with the superheat controlled by the electrical
control valve; EX series.

Note: The EC3-D72 series contains a lead, acid gel rechargeable bat-
tery. The battery must NOT be disposed of with other commercial waste.
Instead, it is the user’s responsibility to pass it to a designated collection
point for the safe recycling of batteries (harmonised directive 98/101/
EEC).Forfurtherinformationcontactyourlocalenvironmentalrecycling

WARNING: The use of the relay is essential
to protect the system in case of power
failure if the communications interface or
the ECD-002 are not utilized..

MOUNTING
• TheEC3-D72isdesignedtobemountedontoastandardDINrail.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
• Refertotheelectricalwiringdiagramforelectricalconnections.
• Donotapplyvoltagetothecontrollerbeforecompletionofwiring.
• Groundthemetalhousingwitha¼”spadeconnector.
• Important: Keep controller and sensor wiring well separated from
mainswiring.Minimumrecommendeddistance1.2”.
WARNING: Use a class II category transformer for 24VAC power supply.
Do not ground the 24VAC lines. We recommend using individual trans-
formers for EC3 controller and for 3rd party controllers to avoid possible
interference or grounding problems in the power supply. Connecting any
EC3 inputs to mains voltage will permanently damage the EC3.
