Superheat Controller
Type EKE 100 (PV00)

For commercial air conditioning and refrigeration applications

The flexible pre-programmed EKE 100

superheat controllers from Danfoss provides
ultimate software control, allowing you to tailor
the performance of your system to your exact
requirements. EKE 100 is ideal for controlling a
wide range of commercial air conditioning and
refrigeration applications, such control helps
you to achieve the highest efficiency in the
system reducing the operational cost by up to
20% with minimal effort. EKE 100 is generally
used where there is a requirement for accurate
control of superheat or as valve driver in
connection with air conditioning and
refrigeration. The superheat is regulated to the
lowest possible value within a short period of
time. It regulates the superheat of the
evaporator by charging optimally even when
there are great variations of load resulting in
reduction of energy consumption and
operational cost
