Set points are grouped in subfunctions as follows:

Displaysm Fl chiller water and cooling ramp set points.

a. The first value shown is the occupied chilled water set point.

b. The next value displayed depends on how the sched- ule function has been programmed. (See pages 45- 47.) If dual set point has been selected, the next set

point after m has been pressed is the unoccupied chilled water set point. If single set point or inactive schedule has been selected in the schedule function,

then when q

is pressed, the display shows the

modified chilled water set point.

q

 

c. The final value

displayed when the

is pressed

is the cooling ramp loading rate. This is the maxi- mum rate at which the leaving chilled water is al- lowed to drop, and can be field set from 0.2 to 2.0 F (. 11” to 1.1” C)/minute. This value is not displayed unless the function is enabled (see Adjustable Field Configurations on page 45).

Reading and Channinrr Set Points - Example 4 shows how to read and change the chilled water set point. Other set points can be changed by following the same procedure. Refer to Table 9 for the sequence of display of set points in each subfunction.

Temperature Reset Based on Return Water TemDerature - The control system is capable of providing leaving water temperature reset based on return water temperature. Be- cause the temperature difference between leaving water tem- perature and return water temperature is a measure of the building load, return water temperature reset is essentially an average building load reset method.

Under normal operation, the chiller maintairis a constant leaving water temperature approximately equal to chilled water set point. As building load drops from 100% down to O%, entering cooler water temperature drops in proportion to load. Thus, temperature drop across the cooler drops from a typical 10 F (5.5 C) at full load to a theoretical 0” F (0” C) at no load. See Fig. 4.

At partial load, leaving chilled water temperature may be lower than required. If this is allowed to increase (reset), the efficiency of the chiller increases. Amount of reset can be defined as a function of cooler temperature drop, as shown in Fig. 4. This is a simple linear function that requires 4 pieces of input data for the set function:
