Product details
Danfoss ERC 211 Digital Refrigeration Controller | 230V | 1 Relay
Product Description:
The Danfoss ERC 211 is the ideal “entry-level” smart controller for refrigeration systems that require robust performance without the complexity of multiple outputs. Featuring a high-capacity 16A relay, it is primarily used for direct compressor control in small to medium cooling units throughout the UAE. Despite its simplicity, it includes advanced features such as “Natural Defrost” (time-based compressor stop) and voltage protection logic, which are essential for safeguarding equipment against power fluctuations in the Middle East. Its bright LED display and intuitive four-button interface make it a favorite for UAE technicians looking for a reliable, easy-to-program thermostat for standard retail applications.
Key Features & Benefits:
- High-Capacity 16A Relay: Capable of switching compressors directly up to 2HP, reducing the need for external contactors.
- Smart Natural Defrost: Optimizes the defrost cycle by stopping the compressor, saving energy in UAE beverage coolers.
- Under/Over Voltage Protection: Built-in safeguards to protect the compressor motor from unstable power supply conditions.
- Wide Sensor Compatibility: Works with NTC 5k/10k, PTC, and Pt 1000 sensors, offering great flexibility for site repairs.
- Durable & Safe: Rated IP 65 on the front panel, protecting the electronics from moisture and dust in busy Dubai kitchens.

FAQs:
- Q: Can the ERC 211 control a defrost heater?
- A: No, the ERC 211 has only one relay, usually for the compressor. For heater control (Electric Defrost), you would need the ERC 213.
- Q: Is it easy to replace a standard mechanical thermostat with this?
- A: Yes, it is a popular upgrade in the UAE to improve energy efficiency and digital precision.
- Q: How can I speed up the programming for a large batch of coolers?
- A: You can use the Danfoss KoolKey or a “Copy Key” to clone settings from one ERC 211 to the next in seconds.
