Principles of Operation of the
Module UCM-CLD
RLC-SVU02F-E44
General Information
This UCM-CLD chiller control is
composed of eight electronic
modules, which each have their
own 115V or 24V power supply and
communicate with each other via a
serial link. The names of the
modules are linked to their
functions.
