pressing the LOCAL or CCN menu softkey, which is indi- cated on the default international chiller visual control (ICVC) screen. Time schedule 01 or 03, respectively, must be in the Occupied mode and the internal
If the chilled liquid temperature is high enough, the start- up sequence continues. The oil pump is started and waits a minimum of 45 sec to verify oil flow. Once oil flow is veri- fied, the VFD is energized. The control will monitor for a phase reversal condition. At this time, the following occurs:
•The
•The “compressor
•The “starts in
•The “total compressor starts counter” advances by one.
Once started — If the VFD average current >5% within 15 seconds after VFD start, the machine enters run mode and speed will be ramped up to meet VFD target speed. Once the target speed is met the controls, enter the capac- ity control mode.
0— Phase reversal monitored
A— START INITIATED:
B— Condenser liquid pump started (5 seconds after A); tower fan control enabled
C— Liquid flows verified (30 sec to 5 minutes maximum after B)
D— Chilled liquid temperature checked against control point; oil pump on.
E— Oil pressure verified (oil pressure verified
F— VFD starts; phase reversal conditions monitored; compressor ontime and service ontime start;
G— Verify average current >5% within 15 sec after VFD start, ramp to VFD target speed.
H— Compressor reaches target speed, chiller set to running status
I— Shutdown initiated: Target VFD speed to 0% (or J occurs)
J— Ramp down until percent line current < soft stop amps threshold
K— Oil pump relay off
L— Evaporator pump deenergized (60 sec after K); condenser pump and tower fan control may continue to operate if condenser pressure
is high; evaporator pump may continue if in RECYCLE mode
O/A — Restart permitted (both inhibit timers expired) (minimum of 15 min- utes after F; minimum of 3 minutes after L)
Shutdown sequence — The chiller shutdown is initiated if any of the following occur:
•The Stop button is pressed for at least one second (the alarm light blinks once to confirm the stop command).
•A recycle shutdown is initiated.
•The time schedule has gone into unoccupied mode.
•The chiller protective limit has been reached and the chiller is in alarm.
•The start/stop status is overridden to stop from the ICVC, CCN system, or building management system.
Once the controls shutdown sequence is initiated, the compressor is stopped and the VFD target speed is set to 0. If optional soft stop unloading is activated when the Stop button is pressed or the remote contacts open, motor speed decreases to a configured amperage level, and the compressor is stopped. The display indicates “Shutdown in Progress” while the motor speed decreases. Compressor ontime and service ontime timers stop once the current in all phases is <5%, indicating a VFD Stop Complete. The oil pump and cooler liquid pump are then deenergized. The condenser liquid pump shuts down when the refrigerant temperature or entering condenser liquid temperature is be- low
Restart — Restart is permitted after both inhibit timers have expired. If shutdown was due to a safety shutdown, the reset button must be depressed before restarting the chiller.
