3.3.3 - The evaporator pumps
The controller can regulate one or two evaporator pumps, with automatic changeover between the two pumps.
3.3.4 - The condenser pump
In appropriate cases the controller can regulate a condenser pump (for
3.3.5 - Pressure sensors
These are used to measure the following pressures in each circuit:
•Discharge gas pressure (high pressure type)
•Suction pressure (low pressure type)
•Oil pressure (option)
These electronic sensors deliver 0 to 5 V d.c. to the main board or to a
Discharge pressure sensors
These are on the high pressure side of the lead compressor in each circuit. They replace the usual discharge gas pressure gauges and can be used to control head pressure or by the high pressure load shedding option.
Oil pressure sensors
If installed, these sensors are used to measure the compressor oil pressure on the oil pressure discharge side. The suction pressure is subtracted from the oil pressure value to arrive at the differential oil pressure.
Suction pressure sensors
They are located in the
3.3.6 - Thermistors
These all have similar characteristics.
Evaporator entering water temperature sensor
The evaporator entering water temperature sensor is installed in the evaporator wall in the free space at the side of the tube bundle.
Evaporator leaving water temperature sensor
The evaporator leaving water temperature sensor is installed in evaporator leaving water piping: The sensor bulb is directly immersed in the water.
Compressor suction sensor
This is located in the lead compressor of each circuit in the suction gas line situated between the motor and the cylinders above the oil pump.
Condenser entering and leaving water temperature sensors
These are used to control the heating capacity on heat pumps. In cooling only units they have no control function. They are installed in the common condenser entering and leaving line.
Heat reclaim condenser entering/leaving water temperatures
These sensors measure the entering and leaving water tempera- tures of heat reclaim condensers and are used on
Temperature setpoint reset sensor
This is an optional
Outdoor temperature sensor
Mounted on the control box. It is used for
Master/slave assembly temperature control
The optional water temperature sensor can be used for master/ slave assembly control.
