Cold Room Control Modules

A cold room control module is a box-type control device that manages cooling, defrost and the fan in a cold storage room according to the measured temperature; it is selected by sensor input, output functions, operating voltage and measuring range. It is used in refrigeration facilities such as food storage rooms and frozen stores to hold the room temperature at the setpoint and to remove frost on the evaporator through defrost cycles. The category includes the Tense DT-DFM cold storage control module; the product data specifies 2 NTC sensor inputs, a measuring range of -45 to 99 °C, a 100-265 V AC operating voltage, defrost and fan outputs, a door switch input, a real-time clock, an energy saving mode and password protection. Verify from the output values in the manufacturer data whether the compressor, defrost heater and fan loads will be connected directly to the module outputs or through a contactor. A single-output on-off thermostat is not a substitute for this module; refrigeration-specific functions such as defrost management, a fan output and a door switch input are built into the module.

How to choose Cold Room Control Modules

A cold room control module is a box-type control device that manages cooling, defrost and the fan in a cold storage room according to the measured temperature; it is selected by sensor input, output functions, operating voltage and measuring range. It is used in refrigeration facilities such as food storage rooms and frozen stores to hold the room temperature at the setpoint and to remove frost on the evaporator through defrost cycles.

  • Separate sensing, motion control, logic processing and operator interface requirements.
  • Select signal type, supply voltage, communication protocol and I/O count for the machine network.
  • Verify housing size, sensing distance and PNP/NPN output polarity against the PLC input card.
