Unit price perEstimated delivery between November 01 and November 03.
The TrolMaster DCC-1 Dual Condition Adapter is designed for the Hydro-X environmental control system and allows a single connected device to be controlled by more than one environmental condition.
Standard Hydro-X Device Stations normally operate according to one environmental parameter, such as temperature or humidity. The DCC-1 adds another layer of control by combining two selected conditions, allowing equipment to operate only when the required combination of environmental conditions has been met.
This is particularly useful for equipment that influences more than one aspect of the controlled environment. Ventilation is a good example: an extraction fan can affect both temperature and humidity, so controlling it from a combination of these parameters can provide more intelligent operation than responding to either measurement alone.
The DCC-1 can be configured to work in AND or OR mode, giving the installer control over how the two environmental conditions interact before the connected device is activated.
Why choose the TrolMaster DCC-1?
- Dual-condition environmental control - allows equipment to respond to two environmental parameters instead of only one.
- AND logic - configure equipment to operate only when both selected conditions require activation.
- OR logic - configure equipment to operate when either selected condition requires activation.
- Four selectable conditions - works with temperature, humidity, CO2 and program/timer control functions.
- Ideal for multifunction equipment - useful where one device influences more than one environmental parameter.
- Useful for ventilation control - allows extraction equipment to respond intelligently to combinations of temperature and humidity.
- Hydro-X integration - designed specifically to expand the control capabilities of the TrolMaster Hydro-X system.
- Works with Device Stations - used in conjunction with the appropriate TrolMaster Device Station for the equipment being controlled.
- Simple mode selection - onboard controls allow the required conditions and AND/OR logic to be selected.
- Low-voltage control accessory - the DCC-1 handles control logic rather than directly carrying the mains electrical load of the connected equipment.
AND or OR environmental control
The key feature of the DCC-1 is its ability to determine whether a connected device should operate according to two separate control conditions.
AND mode
In AND mode, both selected conditions must be calling for the equipment to operate before the DCC-1 activates the connected Device Station.
For example, if temperature and humidity are selected, an extraction device could be configured to operate only when the temperature is too high and the humidity is also above its target.
OR mode
In OR mode, either selected condition can call for the equipment to operate.
Using the same temperature and humidity example, the extraction equipment could operate when the temperature becomes too high or when humidity rises above its target.
This gives the installer much greater flexibility when deciding exactly how multifunction environmental equipment should respond.
Four selectable control conditions
The DCC-1 provides four control-condition selections that correspond with key Hydro-X control functions.
| Temperature | Allows the connected equipment to respond to the Hydro-X temperature-control condition. |
|---|---|
| Humidity | Allows operation to be linked to the Hydro-X relative-humidity control condition. |
| CO2 | Allows the device to respond to the controller's CO2 control condition where appropriate. |
| Program | Allows a programmed or timer-based condition to form part of the dual-control logic. |
Two of these conditions are selected and the DCC-1 then applies either AND or OR logic to determine when the connected equipment should operate.
Example: temperature & humidity ventilation control
Ventilation equipment can have a major influence on both air temperature and relative humidity. A standard single-condition controller may operate an extraction fan according to only one of those parameters.
The DCC-1 allows both conditions to be considered.
Temperature AND humidity
The extraction equipment operates only when both temperature and humidity have reached the conditions configured to call for ventilation. This can reduce unnecessary operation where only one parameter has moved away from its target.
Temperature OR humidity
The extraction equipment can operate as soon as either temperature or humidity reaches its configured control point. This can be useful where ventilation is required to correct either environmental condition independently.
The appropriate configuration depends on the environmental strategy and the equipment being controlled.
Designed to work with TrolMaster Device Stations
The DCC-1 is a control-logic adapter rather than a mains switching device. It is installed between the Hydro-X control system and the appropriate TrolMaster Device Station.
The Device Station then performs the actual equipment switching. This means the correct Device Station still needs to be selected for the electrical equipment and application.
For example, a suitable TrolMaster temperature, humidity or programme Device Station may be used depending on the equipment being controlled and the required installation.
Always check the electrical rating of the Device Station against the connected equipment. Motors, compressors and other inductive loads can have a starting current considerably higher than their normal running current.
Simple Hydro-X integration
The DCC-1 connects into the Hydro-X control network and provides selectable inputs for the environmental conditions that will form the dual-control rule.
Once the two required conditions have been selected, the DCC-1 is set to either AND or OR operation. The output is then connected to the appropriate TrolMaster Device Station controlling the equipment.
Because the DCC-1 deals with control logic rather than directly powering the environmental equipment, the electrical requirements of the connected load are determined by the Device Station or switching equipment used with it.

TrolMaster DCC-1 Dual Condition Adapter FAQs
What conditions can the DCC-1 use?
The DCC-1 provides selections for temperature, humidity, CO2 and program/timer control. Two conditions are selected for the required application.
What does AND mode mean?
AND mode means both selected conditions must be calling for operation before the connected Device Station is activated.
What does OR mode mean?
OR mode means either of the two selected conditions can activate the connected Device Station.
Can I control a fan using both temperature and humidity?
Yes. This is a useful application for the DCC-1 because ventilation can influence both temperature and relative humidity.
What is the difference between temperature AND humidity and temperature OR humidity?
With AND selected, both temperature and humidity conditions must call for operation. With OR selected, either condition can call for the connected equipment to operate.
Does the DCC-1 switch mains equipment directly?
No. The DCC-1 handles the control logic. The connected equipment is switched through the appropriate compatible TrolMaster Device Station.
Do I still need a Device Station?
Yes. The DCC-1 is used with a compatible TrolMaster Device Station, which performs the actual switching of the connected equipment.
Can the DCC-1 vary fan speed?
No. The DCC-1 provides dual-condition control logic. Variable-speed EC fan control requires the appropriate TrolMaster fan-control hardware, such as an EFC-1 where compatible.
Can the DCC-1 be used for CO2 control?
CO2 is one of the available control-condition selections, allowing it to be combined with another supported condition where appropriate for the equipment and control strategy.
Can a timer be one of the two conditions?
Yes. Program/timer control is one of the selectable conditions, allowing equipment operation to depend on both a programmed period and another environmental condition.
Why use dual-condition control?
Some environmental equipment affects several parameters at the same time. Dual-condition logic allows the system to consider two factors before deciding whether that equipment should operate.
Is the DCC-1 useful for commercial environmental control?
Yes. It can provide more precise control logic in installations where equipment such as ventilation influences multiple environmental parameters and simple single-condition switching is not sufficient.
Does the DCC-1 measure temperature, humidity or CO2 itself?
No. The DCC-1 does not replace the Hydro-X environmental sensors. It uses the control conditions generated by the Hydro-X system to determine when the connected Device Station should operate.
