Introduction
The C-PRO KILO family of programmable controllers is the ideal solution for low to medium complexity
refrigeration, ventilation and air conditioning applications. The controller software is fully programmable, in a
simple and intuitive manner, both in terms of control and the user interface, thanks to the use of the UNI-PRO
development environment.
The C-PRO KILO is available in a version for installation on DIN rails (10 DIN modules); there is also an open
case version available, again for installation on DIN rails.
Using the 7 relay outputs, it is possible to control various types of devices such as compressors, water
circulation pumps, de-icer heaters, condensation or evaporation fans, cycle inversion valves, alarm indicators
etc.
As an alternative to the 7 electromechanical relay outputs, there is also a version with 5 electromechanical
relays and 2 solid state relays (SSR).
The C-PRO KILO is also available in an 11 DIN module case; in addition to the normal features, this version
also has a 48 VDC stabilised output, useful in the climate control and mobile phone control unit (shelter)
sectors for supplying the shutter servomotor.
The C-PRO KILO also has 3 analogue outputs: one for controlling the EVDFAN1 phase chopping module (this
output is also provided with the standard version of the controller) and two 0-10 V or 4-20 mA type outputs
(available on request).
The controller has 5 analogue inputs, 3 for NTC probes and 2 for NTC probes/0-5 V ratiometric transducers (on
request)/0-20 mA transducers/4-20 mA transducers.
The C-PRO KILO also has 7 digital inputs for controlling the operation of the unit.
There are two alternative versions according to the kind of Bus used: CANBus version and IntraBus version.
You can also connect until two I/O expansion units (IntraBus version) or the expansions of the C-PRO EXP-
MICRO, C-PRO EXP-KILO, C-PRO EXP-MEGA, C-PRO EXP-GIGA families to increase the I/O (CAN
version).
All parameters can be altered by means of the user interface; it is possible to download and upload
configuration data using the programming key.
Finally, the controllers have a Real Time Clock.
The C-PRO KILO is available as a built-in version (with 4 x 20 character alphanumeric display, LED display
with refrigeration icons or LED display with air conditioning icons) and in closed case and open case versions;
the closed and open case versions have neither display nor keypad and must be used in conjunction with a
remote terminal unit.
