1. Introduction
This manual describes the VEM electronic compressors with VCC electronic control in autologic mode.
The autologic mode is an algorithm developed to automatically select the best speed of the compressor
according to the working conditions of the refrigerator.
The new series of compressors called VEM belongs to a typology of compressors controlled by a sophisticated
electronic control called VCC (Variable Capacity Compressor).
The VEM compressors contribute to a reasonable reduction of the electrical consumption and optimize the
performances of the appliances thanks to the variable speed set by the control electronic board.
The compressors are identified with the abbreviation VEM and must be powered only through the suitable
electronic board @ (refer to the specific spare part list for the model!).
Otherwise the compressor is irreparably damaged!
The control electronic board of the compressor is powered at a rated power ~ of the appliance and receives the
cut-in and cut-out signal from the thermostat T of the appliance.
~ = rated power supply;

T = cut-in and cut-out of the thermostat;
@ = control electronic board compressor;
VEM = compressor.
The FSD compressors do not feature a junction box, PTC and a motor protector since the control electronic
board has the function of starting and protecting the compressor.
The control electronic board of the compressor, moreover, is provided with some internal automatic protections
which avoid any damage of the compressor in case of malfunctioning.
In these conditions, the control electronic board switches the compressor off for 5 minutes before starting it
again.

Warning: The power supply of the control board is NOT interrupted if the appliance is switched
off with the ON/OFF button.
Before operating on the electrical components ALWAYS unplug the appliance.

4. Connection diagram
4.1. VCC Control board
Inside the cable cover of the VCC control electronic board there are the following multiple connectors:
CN01 (with 2 terminals) for the power supply cable of the control board;
CN02 (with 4 terminals) for the power supply cable of the power board;
CN05 (with 2 terminals) for the cable of the signal from the thermostat/electronic board;
CN07 (with 3 terminals) for the connection cable of control board and compressor.

Key:
1 = power supply cable of control board;

2 = power supply cable of power board;
3 = cable of the thermostat/electronic board signal;
4 = connection cable of control board and electronic compressor;
5 = earth terminal;
6 = earth cable;
L = line;
N = neutral;
T = thermostat/electronic board;
PHASE 1 = phase 1;
PHASE 2 = phase 2;
PHASE 3 = phase 3.
Warning : a wrong connection causes irreparable damages to the compressor!

Therefore, the earth cable must be connected and the phase order must be followed.

5. Precautions
The VEM compressor must never be connected directly to the supply line because it would be irreparably
damaged.
The operation of the FSD compressor must be controlled only by the VCC control electronic board.
Connect the earth cable to the earth contact of the compressor follow the phase order.
Never measure the output voltage from the VCC control electronic board (or at the ends of the VEM
compressor) because the compressor would be irreparably damaged.
Utilize only the thermostat indicated in the spare part list of the specific model or one equivalent as long as it
does not feature the cross-ambient heating element. The use of a thermostat with cross-ambient heating
element causes the continuous operation of the VEM compressor.
6. Checking procedures
A procedure sequence which enables to check the ohmic resistance of the compressor motor windings is shown
below:
1. Disconnect the connector from the compressor.

2. Measure the resistance value between the motor phases (between the compressor contacts). If the
values are very different from those indicated in the technical data of the compressor, replace the
compressor.
3. Measure the isolation of the earth windings. In case of faulty isolation, replace the compressor.
