Bard P1236A1 Adjustments, LOW Pressure SWITCH, BYPASS, and Lockout Sequence, Alarm Output

LOW PRESSURE SWITCH, BYPASS, AND LOCKOUT SEQUENCE

NOTE: The low pressure switch is an optional control and the bypass and lockout sequence are part of the standard compressor control module.

If the low pressure switch opens for more that 120 seconds, the compressor contactor will de-energize and go into a soft lockout. Regardless the state of the low pressure switch, the contactor will reenergize after the delay-on-make time delay has expired. If the low pressure switch remains open or opens again for longer than 120 seconds the unit will go into manual lockout condition and the alarm circuit will energize. Recycling the wall thermostat resets the manual lockout.

.

ALARM OUTPUT

Alarm terminal is output connection for applications where alarm signal is desired. This terminal is powered whenever compressor is locked out due to HPC or LPC sequences as described.

NOTE: Both high and low pressure switch controls are inherently automatic reset devices. The high pressure switch and low pressure switch cut out and cut in settings are fixed by specific air conditioner or heat pump unit model. The lockout features, both soft and manual, are a function of the Compressor Control Module.

ADJUSTMENTS

ADJUSTABLE DELAY-ON-MAKE AND DELAY-ON-BREAK TIMER

The potentiometer is used to select Delay-on-Break time from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. Delay-on-Make (DOM) timing on power-up and after power interruptions is equal to 2 minutes plus 10% of Delay-on-Break (DOB) setting:

0.5 minute (30 seconds) DOB = 123 second DOM

1.0minute (60 seconds) DOB = 126 second DOM

2.0minute (120 seconds) DOB = 132 second DOM

3.0minute (160 seconds) DOB = 138 second DOM

4.0minute (240 seconds) DOB = 144 second DOM

5.0minute (300 seconds) DOB = 150 second DOM
