Shunt Trip (Option) — The function of the shunt trip option on the PIC II is to act as a safety trip. The shunt trip is wired from an output on the ISM to a shunt trip equipped mo- tor circuit breaker. If the PIC II tries to shut down the compres- sor using a normal shutdown procedure but is unsuccessful for 20 seconds, the shunt trip output is energized and causes the circuit breaker to trip off. If ground fault protection has been applied to the starter, the ground fault trip also energizes the shunt trip to trip the circuit breaker. Protective devices in the starter can also energize the shunt trip. The shunt trip feature can be tested using the Control Test feature.

Default Screen Freeze — When the chiller is in an alarm state, the default CVC/ICVC display “freezes,” that is, it stops updating. The first line of the CVC/ICVC default screen displays a primary alarm message; the second line displays a secondary alarm message.

The CVC/ICVC default screen freezes to enable the opera- tor to see the conditions of the chiller at the time of the alarm. If the value in alarm is one normally displayed on the default screen, it flashes between normal and reverse video. The CVC/ ICVC default screen remains frozen until the condition that

caused the alarm is remedied by the operator. Use CVC/ICVC display and alarm shutdown record sheet (CL-13) to record all values from default screen freeze.

Knowledge of the operating state of the chiller at the time an alarm occurs is useful when troubleshooting. Additional chiller information can be viewed on the status screens and the ISM_HIST screen. Troubleshooting information is recorded in the ALARM HISTORY table, which can be accessed from the SERVICE menu.

To determine what caused the alarm, the operator should read both the primary and secondary default screen messages, as well as the alarm history. The primary message indicates the most recent alarm condition. The secondary message gives more detail on the alarm condition. Since there may be more than one alarm condition, another alarm message may appear after the first condition is cleared. Check the ALARM HISTO- RY screen for additional help in determining the reasons for the alarms. Once all existing alarms are cleared (by pressing the

RESET softkey), the default CVC/ICVC display returns to normal operation.

Carrier XRV, 19XR specifications Protective Safety Limits and Control Settings

19XR, XRV specifications

The Carrier 19XR and 19XRV chillers are sophisticated cooling solutions that represent the forefront of HVAC technology. Designed for large commercial and industrial applications, these chillers provide exceptional performance, energy efficiency, and reliability, making them ideal for a variety of environments ranging from hospitals to manufacturing facilities.

One of the most significant features of the Carrier 19XR and 19XRV chillers is their advanced scroll compressor technology. These units employ a tandem scroll design that enhances efficiency while minimizing operational noise. This makes them ideal for urban environments where noise restrictions may be in place. Moreover, the compressors are equipped with variable speed drive options in the 19XRV model, which allows for greater energy savings by adjusting cooling output based on real-time demand.

In addition to their advanced compressors, the 19XR and 19XRV units incorporate the Carrier GreenChoice refrigerant, which has a lower global warming potential compared to traditional refrigerants. This innovative choice not only meets regulatory requirements but also contributes to sustainability goals, making these chillers a responsible choice for environmentally conscious organizations.

The units are engineered with a robust heat exchanger design, which enhances heat transfer efficiency and overall system performance. This ensures optimal operation even in extreme conditions. They feature a microprocessor-based control system that allows for precise monitoring and control of the chiller’s performance, enabling operators to make real-time adjustments to maximize energy efficiency.

The Carrier 19XR and 19XRV chillers also prioritize serviceability. The design incorporates easy access to key components, simplifying maintenance procedures and reducing downtime. This focus on maintainability extends the lifespan of the equipment, leading to lower lifecycle costs.

In terms of connectivity, these chillers are equipped with advanced Building Management System (BMS) integration capabilities. This allows for seamless monitoring and control of the chillers using a centralized platform, facilitating energy management and operational optimization.

Overall, the Carrier 19XR and 19XRV chillers stand out in the market for their blend of cutting-edge technology, energy efficiency, and user-friendly features. They are engineered to meet the demanding needs of modern commercial and industrial applications, making them a preferred choice for facility managers seeking reliable cooling solutions.
