1.3 Main differences between easy, easy compact and easy split
Unlike the easy and easy compact models, the easy split models feature a separate terminal and power board. There are also other differences, such as the
auxiliary multifunction relay for managing the light output or a second compressor, and new software functions. The table below highlights the differences
and indicates the page showing the related explanation.

1.4 NTC and PTC probes
All easy and easy compact models use PTC and NTC probes conforming
to the CAREL standard, with resistance values of 985Ω at 25°C for the
PTC, and 10 kΩ for the NTC. The type of probe installable depends on
the model (order code). The easy split models, on the other hand, only
use NTC and high temperature NTC probes (50 KΩ at 25°C), selected by
parameter. Below are some codes of the more common CAREL.

Continuous cycle: function that runs the compressor for the set time.

Defrost: function that controls the defrost of the evaporator.

Duty setting: safety function that in the event of control probe faults
starts the compressor at set time intervals.

easy: trademark of the P(J,Q)EZ(S, X, Y, C, M)* thermostats.

easy compact: more compact and economical version of the easy.


Available in models PJEZ(S, M)*.

easy split: version with separate terminal and power board. Versions

2.3 Wiring diagram for multiple units
The RS485 converter (IROPZ485S0) is used to connect the easy, easy
compact and easy split instruments to the supervisor network, allowing
complete control and monitoring of the easy units connected.
The system allows:
- up to 207 easy units without RTC to be connected together.
- up to 30 easy units with RTC to be connected together.
Maximum length of 1000 m.

The connection requires the standard accessories (RS485-USB converter,


CAREL code CVSTDUMOR0) and two 120 Ω terminal resistors.
Connect the RS485 converter to the easy, easy compact or easy split
using a four-wire cable and make the connections as shown in the figure.
The line should be started and ended with a 120 Ω 1/4 W resistor. For
the allocation of the serial address see parameter H0. The recommended
connection cable is a twisted pair with shield and cross-section from 0.5
to 1.5 mm2 (AW6 22-24).

easy split:
The serial connection for the easy split models with 4 relays depends on
the setting of parameter H7, as the management of the fourth relay (RL4)
and serial communication are mutually exclusive.

The factory setting is H7=1, which means the fourth relay is enabled. To
enable connection to the supervisor network:
1. power down the controller;
2. disconnect the 4-wire cable from the rear of the display;
3. connect the display to converter code IROPZ485S0 and this to the
RS485 network;
4. power up the controller and set H7=0 and the network address for
parameter H0.

To restore the fourth relay output (RL4):


1. power down the controller;
2. disconnect converter code IROPZ485S0 from the rear of the display;
3. connect the 4-wire cable from the power board to the display;
4. power up the controller and set H7=1.

Warnings:
• the RS485 converter (IROPZ485S0) is sensitive to electrostatic
discharges, and therefore must be handled with extreme care;
• check the technical documents on the CAREL IROPZ485S0 option for
the description of the connection methods so as to avoid damaging
the instrument;
• suitably fasten the converter so as to avoid disconnections;
• perform the wiring with the power supply disconnected;
• keep the IROPZ485S0 serial option cables separate from the power
wires (relay outputs and power supply).

5.10 Troubleshooting
The following table shows a number of anomalous situations that may
occur on the various models.
The most frequent causes and corresponding checks are described:

problem cause checks


the compressor does not start (signalled by the • compressor delay set parameters c0, c1 and c2 and dd
compressor LED flashing) • defrost post dripping in progress
the temperature is over the set limits but there is alarm delay set parameters Ad, c6, d8
no alarm message and the buzzer, if fitted, does not
sound
alarm IA is signalled (multifunction input) without the multifunction input generates an alarm when connection of the input and whether this is closed in
actually being active the contact opens normal operation
the alarm connected to the multifunction input is alarm delay set or parameter programming error 1. if A4=1
not detected 2. the status of digital input A7
the defrost is not activated • defrost duration too short (dP) parameters dP and dI and H1 for S models
• interval between defrosts dI=0: in this case the
defrost is not activated
the end defrost temperature is too low or the parameters dt and d/ (defrost probe)
evaporator temperature is too high
the manual defrost is not activated and the defrost compressor protection times set parameter d9 (select d9=1)
LED flashes
the high temperature alarm is shown after a defrost the alarm delay after defrost is too short or the alarm parameters d8 and AH
threshold is too low
the display remains frozen even after the defrost the ambient temperature has not yet reached the wait or reduce d8
set point or alternatively the time d8 has not elapsed
after modifying a parameter the controller continues the instrument has not updated the old value or turn the instrument off and on again or alternatively
working with the old values alternatively the parameter setting procedure has reprogram the parameters correctly
not been ended correctly by pressing the SET button
for 3 s
for C models, the fan does not start 1. a compressor and fan start delay has been set 1. parameter c0
2. if F0=1 (fan managed by fan controller) 2. parameters F0, F1, Fd, dd and d/
• the evaporator is “hot”: the evaporator 3. parameters F0, F2, dd and Fd
temperature can be read by selecting
parameter /d;
• dripping in progress;
• F1 (evaporator fan control set point) too low.
• post-dripping delay set
3. if F0=0
• F2=1 and the compressor is off
• dripping in progress
• post-dripping in progress

6.4 Electromagnetic compatibility
The easy and easy compact series is compliant with the EU standards on
electromagnetic compatibility:
• for household appliances EN 55014-2 and EN 55014-1;
• for residential, commercial and light industrial environments EN 50082-
1 and EN 50081-1;
• for industrial environments EN 50082-2 and EN 50082-1;
• as regards safety, the devices are compliant with standards EN60730-1
and EN60730-2-9.

6.5 Flammable refrigerant gases


The PJEZ models of easy series use components and, more specifically,
electromechanical relays tested in accordance to UL 60079-15 ed. 4 / ISA
12.12.01:2013 (Sealed or Enclosed Break Device). Acceptability of these
relays in end use application where flammable refrigerants are employed
shall be reviewed and judged in the end use application.

For use of PQEZ models of easy series with flammable refrigerant gases,
the controllers have been evaluated and judged compliant with the
following requirements of IEC 60335 series standards:
• Annex CC of IEC 60335-2-24:2010 referenced by clause 22.109 and
Annex BB of IEC 60335-2-89:2010 referenced by clause 22.108;
components that produce arcs or sparks during normal operation
have been tested and found to comply with the requirements in UL/
IEC 60079-15;
• IEC/EN/UL 60335-2-24 (clauses 22.109, 22.110) for household
refrigerators and freezers
• IEC/EN/UL 60335-2-40 (clauses 22.116, 22.117) for electrical heat
pumps, air-conditioners and dehumidifiers
• IEC/EN/UL 60335-2-89 (clauses 22.108, 22.109) for commercial
refrigerated appliances

The controllers have been verified for the maximum temperatures of all
components, which during the tests required by IEC 60335 cl. 11 and 19
do not exceed 272 ° C.

Acceptability of these controllers in end use application where flammable


refrigerant gases are used shall be reviewed and judged in the end use
application.
