2.3 Temperature Control Board

The temperature control board monitors the compressor, condenser fan, and alarm control.

Its remote temperature sensors monitor compressor discharge and evaporator suction line

temperature. A board-mounted temperature sensor monitors enclosure temperature. An

optional remote temperature sensor can monitor a specific area in the enclosure. The board

incorporates a low-voltage shutdown fixed at 42V for the 48VDC air conditioner, and 21V for

the 24VDC air conditioner.
A temperature sensor on the discharge line of the compressor regulates the condenser fans.

At low outdoor ambient temperatures, the condenser fans cycle on or off to maintain pressure

across the expansion valve.
A temperature sensor on the suction line exiting the evaporator monitors low evaporator

temperature, which can result from blocked evaporator air flow or faulty evaporator fans. This

condition sends out a minor alarm and shuts down the compressor until the suction lines

warm up again.
