Heat Pump With Electric Heat Operation (Continued)

Condition 2

If the Δ (delta) (set point temperature minus the ambient indoor temperature) is greater than 5 ˚F, then the unit will switch to electric heat, if available. The unit will continue to operate with electric heat until the heat demand is satisfied. Note that the electric heat switches on after the Δ temp passes 5°F and the heat pump switches off. Also note that the electric heat will run until the heat demand is satisfied. When another heat demand cycle is initiated, the heat pump will run unless the

Δtemp is greater than the electric heat threshold.

Emergency Heat

If a compressor fails in the heating season, the Emergency Heat allows the user to override the Heat Pump and heat with electric heat only. This is controlled via the user interface (See the User Menu Functions page 12).

Note that if heat is the first demand cycle (demand cycle = call for heat or call for cooling) after power restoration, the control system will run electric heat for the entire cycle if the unit is equipped with electric heat.

Electric Heat Operation in Cool with Electric Heat Units

When in the Heat mode, with and without Fan Mode Auto (Fan cycling):

If the indoor ambient temperature is below the Heat Demand Threshold (Heat Set Point minus 1.5 ˚F), turn on electric heat. If Ambient is 0.3 ˚F above the Heat Set Point turn off the electric heat.

System Mode Auto

This mode provides automatic change over between cool and heat. The auto mode runs based on the room ambient temperature vs. the Demand Thresholds. It is only available in Heat-Cool Unit.

Notes:

The Heat Demand Threshold and the Cool Demand Threshold values are derived from the Auto Set Point in the Auto Mode (refer to page 22). There is a buffer zone as shown in figure , where no heating or cooling is allowed to occur. It is critical that the Cool Demand Threshold be greater than the Heat Demand Threshold by a minimum of 3° while in the Auto System Mode. For example, if a user enters a value for the Auto Cooling Set Point that violates the minimum Δ 3° rule, the Auto Heating Set Point will adjust accordingly. This buffer zone (BAND) can be manually adjusted from 3 to 10° (see the BAND section page 13).

When programming the schedule, the user has the flexibility to enter the schedule automatic set point cooling (SASPC) and the schedule automatic set point heating (SSPH) set points directly. These values are monitored to ensure that they do not violate the minimum 3° Δ rule. If a violation is detected, the opposite set point will adjust to compensate. The individual heating and cooling rules apply to the auto mode.

Automatic Change Over Delay (Cool with Heat Units)

The change over delay ensures that any system heating or cooling over shoot does not trigger an opposite demand cycle. The change over delay = 15 min. This timer blocks the opposite demand cycle from running until the timer expires. As an example, if the last demand was a cool cycle, and another cool cycle is requested, the timer will not block the request.

However, if the last demand cycle was a cool cycle, and heat cycle is requested, the timer will block the request until the change over delay is expired.

R-410A specifications

Friedrich R-410A is an advanced refrigerant widely used in HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems, known for its high efficiency and environmental friendliness. As a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) blend, R-410A has become the preferred alternative to R-22, which is being phased out due to its ozone-depleting potential. One of the main features of R-410A is its high latent heat of vaporization, which allows for efficient heat transfer and improved cooling performance in air conditioning units.

Technologically, R-410A operates at higher pressures than older refrigerants, meaning systems designed for R-410A need to be built with more robust components to safely handle these pressures. This results in a more compact system design that offers enhanced performance and reliability. The dual-component nature of R-410A—composed of difluoromethane (R-32) and pentafluoroethane (R-125)—provides an optimal balance of thermodynamic properties, leading to superior energy efficiency, especially in variable speed applications.

In terms of characteristics, R-410A has a higher cooling capacity, which enables HVAC systems to effectively cool larger spaces or run more efficiently when cooling smaller areas. The refrigerant is non-toxic and non-flammable, which enhances safety during its use. In addition, R-410A has a lower global warming potential relative to other refrigerants, making it a more environmentally responsible choice for modern cooling systems.

Moreover, R-410A systems typically require less refrigerant charge due to their efficiency, contributing to reduced greenhouse gas emissions. The adoption of R-410A aligns with regulatory trends aimed at minimizing the environmental impact of refrigerants in cooling applications.

Overall, the Friedrich R-410A refrigerant embodies a combination of technology and environmental stewardship, making it a cornerstone of contemporary HVAC design. Its ability to provide effective and energy-efficient cooling solutions while being compliant with modern environmental regulations positions R-410A as the refrigerant of choice for engineers and installers focused on sustainability and performance in air conditioning systems.
