Control Sequence of Operation
When less than 5 seconds remain before compressor start, a starter test is conducted to verify contactor states prior to starting the compressor. The following test or start sequence is conducted for
A. Test for transition complete contact open
B. Delay time - 20 msec.
C. Close start contactor (2K1) and check for no current - 500 msec. If currents are detected, the MMR diagnostic ‘‘Starter Fault Type I’’ is generated.
D. Stop relay
E. Delay time - 200 msec. (Opens 2K1).
F. Close shorting contactor, (2K3) and check for no current - one second. If currents are detected the MMR diagnostic ‘‘Starter Fault Type II’’ is generated. (Starter Integrity test)
G. If no diagnostics are generated in the above tests, the Stop Relay (2A1- J10) is closed for 2 seconds and the Start Relay
H. After the compressor motor has accelerated and the maximum phase current has dropped below 85 percent of the chiller nameplate RLA for 1.5 seconds, the starter transition to the ‘‘Delta’’ configuration is initiated.
J. The transition contactor (2K4) is closed through relay
K. The shorting contactor (2K3) is opened through the opening of relay
L. The run contactor (2K2) is closed through relay
2.35seconds through the closure of the transition complete contacts 2K2- Aux at module
M. The starter module must now confirm closure of the transition complete contact
2.32to 2.38 seconds after the run relay
