Over 80% of refrigeration systems operate with undetected equipment issues and inefficiencies.
CoolTrol® is the backbone of every solution.
CoolTrol is more than a "new" thermostat. It gives you full control over the operation of your refrigeration system right at your fingertips.
LCD Display Screen
The LCD display provides a real-time snapshot of what your cooler is doing. From current temperature, to door heaters, to evaporator fan status, as well as cooling schedules and compressor runtimes, there’s a wealth of data at your fingertips.
Timed Shutdown Button
Safely turn off the refrigeration system for a period of 20 minutes, an ideal way to save energy and ensure worker comfort while performing duties such as loading/unloading, stocking, and taking inventory. The system will automatically turn back on.
Alarm Reset Button
If an alarm is active, read the LCD display then log what the error message is. Consult the alarm message chart to gain clarity on what might be causing the issue. Then press the alarm reset button to clear the alarm and revert the display back to info.
Info Button
The info button allows you to quickly scroll through various metrics associated with your system’s performance. Including, but not limited to: Control Probe Readings, Equipment Status, Runtime Percentages, Setback Settings.
On-Demand Defrost Button
Manually initiate a defrost whenever you need one. Coils icing up is one of the most common issues that cause damage to refrigeration equipment. And sometimes, the factory instituted defrost schedule isn’t optimal.
System Bypass Button
If maintenance or diagnostics is required on the refrigeration equipment, the system bypass button allows the operator to revert the system back to mechanical thermostat control. Press the button a second time to put CoolTrol back in control.
Setup Menu and Keypad
Easily view and adjust settings such as temperature setpoints in the Setup Menu. Press the Menu key then the Set key to enter the Setup Menu. When satisfied with the new setting, press the Set key to exit out o f the menu.

Avoid food safety crises with a wealth of operational data and proactive insights
Whether you have 1 cold space in a single school kitchen, or 100 cold spaces spread across an entire district, our live summary page gives you an immediate overview of all your cooling activity.
Quickly consult current and 7-day runtimes, cooling status, temperature settings, and address any alarms that have been triggered.
Consider the amount of time and effort you’d save by having critical operational info all conveniently in one place.
Arm yourself with powerful and unique visual diagnostics graphs to pinpoint exactly when and where an operating issue arises. Troubleshooting becomes more efficient and effective, helping to ensure the issue is resolved on the first technician visit.
The graphs show important but often overlooked components such as amperages, compressor cycles, the solenoid valve, and things like whether a door is open or not.
The monitoring platform offers transparent runtime and temperature data that provide the measurement and verification proof for accurate recordkeeping.
These graphs also allow you to actually see how much less energy your refrigeration system is using. While also tracking that safe temperatures are always met.
Store up to 10 years of operational logs that take the human-error component out of tracking temperatures.
Going beyond a high temperature alert — which occurs only after an issue has already disrupted operations — NRM’s platform provides a suite of early detection notifications to help you be more proactive with troubleshooting.
For example, a compressor that’s short cycling will still likely be able to cool the space, but it’s dangerous, unnoticed overuse could lead to a critical system failure, jeopardizing the entire cooler’s worth of food.
