Frascold has always cared about its customers and for this reason it strives every day to offer the best products and services in the field of refrigeration, developing constant research and development aimed at guaranteeing high levels of performance.

Innovative detection devices allow to guarantee safe, reliable and efficient control of the system and for this reason, starting from June 2020, Frascold has decided to replace the current delivery temperature probe for piston compressors, with the new PTC model produced by Therm-O-Disc.

Monitoring the discharge temperature plays a fundamental role in controlling the correct operation of a compressor during its entire operating life. Monitoring the discharge temperature signals and allows to prevent overheating of the exhaust gas and is therefore an excellent alarm bell for a possible malfunction or operation of the compressor outside its correct range of use.

The main advantage of the new probe is the great simplicity of assembly, obtained thanks to a metal part that can be easily screwed onto the compressor and which can be separated from the cable. In addition, the probe can be connected to the INT69 Diagnose, which allows you to analyze all the alarm history and therefore prepare optimal reporting and troubleshooting actions.

The main feature of the new probe is that of being composed of two separate parts, which optimize its use: 

A metal part (probe) which can be screwed directly to the compressor; 

A cable plug that, thanks to the simple push-in insertion in the metal part, makes the operation simple, fast and safe.

Used on CE, UL and ATEX compressors, the supply methods do not change compared to the past: 

Standard supply on V, Z and W series compressors; 

Optional supply for the Q and S series models.

The temperature probe is located inside the electrical box together with the assembly instructions. Further technical and installation information is available in the technical manual FTEC247.
