Temperature Pressure Controls
Temperature pressure controls serve a number of
purposes in refrigeration systems, including the control
of compressor cycling, pump-down, defrost control,
pressure limiting, loss of charge freeze protection and
fan speed control.
TS1 Introduction
The TS1 Series is Emerson’s adjustable thermostats
for application in refrigeration and heat pump systems.
In these systems, thermostats provide space tempera-
ture control, high/low temperature alarming or defrost
termination. By operating an electrical contact, a tem-
perature value is kept inside a certain limit.
Housing Variants
TS1 controls are top operated. Top operated
controls have adjustment spindles at the top and a
display scale, showing temperature setpoint and dif-
ferential, at the front. A knob which may be permanently
plugged onto one of the adjustment spindles comes with
every control. Frost monitors and room thermostats are
derivatives of top operated thermostats. They differ by
their sensors and other features to suit their target
applications.

These sensing elements always sense from the cold-
est point on the capillary, coil, bulb or power element
head. For proper operation, the coldest point must be at
the part of the sensor which is exposed to the medium
temperature to be sensed. The sensing location should
be at least 4 degrees F colder than the other parts of the
thermal system.
To avoid unwanted effects of heat transfer, for exam-
ple from a cold wall, vapor charged thermostats come
with an integrated bellows heater (not for frost monitors),
which is rated for 230V applications. For other applica-
tions, the heater must be disabled or a bellows heater
with a different rating should be used.
Besides the bellows heater, room thermostats are
supplied with an insulation console for the same reason.
Sensor type ‘A’ is a coiled bulb sensor with two meter
capillary, which may be used with or without a bulb well.
Style ‘E’ is a coil sensor for space temperature sensing,
and type ‘P’ is a capillary type of sensor which can be
wrapped around a heat exchanger’s surface to sense
the coldest point on the heat exchanger for frost protec-
tion applications.
Vapor charges respond faster to temperature chang-
es than adsorption and liquid charges.

tion are capillary type of sensors, which do not have a
bulb, instead, their capillary serves as the bulb directly.
Charges and sensor types are matched to tempera-
ture ranges and other application specic characteris-
tics. TS1 thermostats come with one of three charge
types: vapor charges, adsorption charges or liquid
charges. The application temperature range covered by
each charge type is shown below:
Temperature Sensing
TS1 thermostats sense temperature by a thermal
system, consisting of temperature charge, bulb, capillary
and bellows. The temperature charge changes its pres-
sure based on the refrigerant temperature to be sensed.
The sensor is the part of the system which is in thermal
contact with the refrigerant. The capillary connects the
sensor with the bellows and the bellows contracts or
expands depending on the temperature, causing the
thermostat to operate the electrical contacts. An excep-
