Carrier 50RTP03-20 specifications Auxiliary Modulating Hot Water/Steam Heating Reheat

After a compressor is staged off, it may be restarted again after a normal time-guard period of 5 minutes and if the supply-air temperature has increased above the minimum supply-air temperature limit.

The WSHP Open controller provides a status input to moni- tor the compressor operation. The status is monitored to deter- mine if the compressor status matches the commanded state. This input is used to determine if a refrigerant safety switch or other safety device has tripped and caused the compressor to stop operating normally. If this should occur, an alarm will be generated to indicate the faulted compressor condition.

HEATING — The WSHP Open controller will operate one or two stages of compression to maintain the desired heating set point. The compressor outputs are controlled by the heating PI (proportional-integral) loop and heating stages capacity algo- rithm. They will be used to calculate the desired number of stages needed to satisfy the space by comparing the space tem- perature (SPT) to the appropriate heating set point. The follow- ing conditions must be true in order for the heating algorithm to run:

•Heating is set to Enable.

•Cooling mode is not active and the compressor time guard has expired.

•Condensate overflow input is normal.

•If occupied, the SPT is less than the occupied heating set point.

•Space temperature reading is valid.

•If unoccupied, the SPT is less than the unoccupied heat- ing set point.

•OAT (if available) is less than the heating lockout temperature.

If all the above conditions are met, the heating outputs will be energized as required, otherwise they will be deenergized. If the heating is active and should the SAT approach the maxi- mum SAT limit, the fan will be indexed to the next higher speed. Should this be insufficient, and the SAT rises further reaching the maximum heating SAT limit, the fan will be indexed to the maximum speed. If the SAT still continues to rise 5° F above the maximum limit, all heating stages will be disabled.

During Heating mode, the reversing valve output will be held in the heating position (either B or O type as configured) even after the compressor is stopped. The valve will not switch position until the Cooling mode is required.

The configuration screens contain the maximum SAT parameter as well as heating lockout based on outdoor-air temperature (OAT); both can be adjusted to meet various specifications.

There is a 5-minute off time for the compressor as well as a 5-minute time delay when staging up to allow the SAT to achieve a stable temperature before energizing a second stage of capacity. Likewise, a 45-second delay is used when staging down.

After a compressor is staged off, it may be restarted again after a normal time-guard period of 5 minutes and if the sup- ply-air temperature has fallen below the maximum supply air temperature limit.

The WSHP Open controller provides a status input to moni- tor the compressor operation. The status is monitored to deter- mine if the compressor status matches the commanded state. This input is used to determine if a refrigerant safety switch or other safety device has tripped and caused the compressor to stop operating normally. If this should occur, an alarm will be generated to indicate the faulted compressor condition. Also, if auxiliary heat is available (see below), the auxiliary heat will operate to replace the reverse cycle heating and maintain the space temperature as required.

AUXILIARY HEAT — The WSHP Open controller can con- trol a two-position, modulating water, or steam valve

connected to a coil on the discharge side of the unit and sup- plied by a boiler or a single-stage ducted electric heater in order to maintain the desired heating set point. Should the compres- sor capacity be insufficient or a compressor failure occurs, the auxiliary heat will be used. Unless the compressor fails, the auxiliary heat will only operate to supplement the heat provid- ed by the compressor if the space temperature falls more than one degree below the desired heating set point (the amount is configurable). The heat will be controlled so the SAT will not exceed the maximum heating SAT limit.

Auxiliary Modulating Hot Water/Steam Heating Reheat

—The control can modulate a hot water or steam valve con- nected to a coil on the discharge side of the unit and supplied by a boiler in order to maintain the desired heating set point should the compressor capacity be insufficient or a compressor failure occurs. Unless a compressor fault condition exists, the valve will only operate to supplement heat provided by com- pressor if the space temperature falls more than one degree be- low the desired heating set point. The valve will be controlled so the SAT will not exceed maximum heating SAT limit.

Two-Position Hot Water/Steam Heating Reheat — The con- trol can operate a two-position, NO or NC, hot water or steam valve connected to a coil on the discharge side of the unit and supplied by a boiler in order to maintain the desired heating set point should the compressor capacity be insufficient or a com- pressor failure occurs. Unless a compressor fault condition ex- ists, the valve will only open to supplement the heat provided by the compressor if the space temperature falls more than one degree below the desired heating set point. The valve will be controlled so the SAT will not exceed the maximum heating SAT limit. The heat stage will also be subject to a 2-minute minimum OFF time to prevent excessive valve cycling.

Single Stage Electric Auxiliary Heat — The control can op- erate a field-installed single stage of electric heat installed on the discharge side of the unit in order to maintain the desired heating set point should the compressor capacity be insufficient or a compressor failure occurs. Unless a compressor fault con- dition exists, the heat stage will only operate to supplement the heat provided by the compressor if the space temperature falls more than one degree below the desired heating set point. The heat stage will be controlled so the SAT will not exceed the maximum heating SAT limit. The heat stage will also be subject to a 2-minute minimum OFF time to prevent excessive cycling.

INDOOR AIR QUALITY (IAQ) AND DEMAND CON- TROLLED VENTILATION (DCV) — If the optional in- door air quality sensor is installed, the WSHP Open controller can maintain indoor air quality via a modulating OA damper providing demand controlled ventilation. The control operates the modulating OA damper during occupied periods. The con- trol monitors the CO2 level and compares it to the configured set points, adjusting the ventilation rate as required. The control provides proportional ventilation to meet the requirements of ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers) specifications by providing a base ventilation rate and then increasing the rate as the CO2 level in- creases. The control will begin to proportionally increase venti- lation when the CO2 level rises above the start ventilation set point and will reach the full ventilation rate when the CO2 level is at or above the maximum set point. A user-configurable minimum damper position ensures that proper base ventilation is delivered when occupants are not present. The IAQ configurations can be accessed through the configuration screen. The following conditions must be true in order for this algorithm to run:

•Damper control is configured for DCV.

•The unit is in an occupied mode.

•The IAQ sensor reading is greater than the DCV start control set point.
