Trane CG-PRC007-EN manual 20-60Ton Controls Interface, Standard Control Features

(20–60Ton

Controls Interface)

Standard Control Features

Human Interface (HI) Panel

The Human Interface (HI) Panel provides a 2 line X 40 character clear English language liquid crystal display and a 16 button keypad for monitoring, setting, editing and controlling.The Human Interface Panel is mounted in the unit’s main control panel and is accessible through a hatch built into the unit’s control panel door.

The optional remote-mounted version of the Human Interface panel has all the functions of the unit-mounted HI, with the exception of the Service Mode.To use a Remote Human Interface (RHI), the unit must be equipped with an optional InterProcessor Communications Bridge (IPCB).The RHI can be located up to 5,000 feet from the unit. A single RHI can be used to monitor and control up to 4 chillers, each containing an IPCB.

The Main Menu of the Human

Interface panel:

STATUS — used to monitor all temperatures, pressures, set points, input and output status.The CUSTOM KEY will have four reports that can be user defined.The report screens consist of the data available in the main status menu.

SET POINTS — used to edit all factory preset default set points and assign set point sources.

DIAGNOSTICS — used to review active and historical lists of diagnostic conditions. A total of 41 different diagnostics can be read at the Human Interface Panel. The last 20 diagnostics can be held in an active history buffer log at the Human Interface Panel.

SETUP — Control parameters, sensor selections, set point source selections, output definitions, and numerous other points can be edited from this menu. All points have factory preset values so

unnecessary editing is kept to a minimum.

CONFIGURATION — Preset with the proper configuration for the unit as it ships from the factory, this information would be edited only if certain features were physically added or deleted from the unit. For example, if a field supplied Trane Communication Interface (TCI) module was added to the unit in the field, the unit configuration would need to be edited to reflect that feature.

SERVICE — used to selectively control outputs (for compressors, fans, etc.) when servicing or troubleshooting the unit.This menu is accessible only at the unit-mounted Human Interface Panel.

STOP,AUTO — when the chiller is in the stop mode, pressing the AUTO KEY will cause the UCM to go into either the Auto/Local or Auto/ICS mode, depending on the set point source setting.

Chiller Capacity Control —The Unit Control Module (UCM) will control leaving solution temperature to a user adjustable set point. The UCM monitors the leaving solution temperature sensor and determines how far away this temperature is from the leaving solution set point and how long it has been there. The rate at which capacity stages are added or subtracted is determined by a control integrator algorithm. This algorithm calculates a control integrator value based upon the inputs from the control response set point, the difference between the leaving solution set point and the leaving solution temperature, the number of capacity steps, and the design delta temperature. This function can be user defined for comfort or process control applications.The following set points are integrated into the capacity control algorithm:

Leaving Solution Set point (LSS) —The LSS is adjustable from the factory as standard within a range from 40-50°F. Three other possible ranges can be

selected and ordered from the factory, 20-29, 30-39°, and 51-65°F. When these options are selected, the unit hardware changes to allow the unit to operate under safe conditions.

Design DeltaTemperature set point —- the design deltaT drop within the evaporator is adjustable from 4-20 °F in one degree increments. In addition, the control response set point can affect the speed of the UCM’s response to changing cooling requirements. This value can be set through the HI to allow flexibility in maintaining precise control conditions.

Chiller Freeze Protection — The microprocessor will prevent the evaporator fluid from freezing by reducing chiller capacity, ultimately shutting down all compressors and sending a manually re-settable diagnostic. The inputs for freeze protection are the low leaving solution temperature cutout and the leaving solution temperature.

Evaporator Solution Flow Interlock — The IntelliPak control requires an external evaporator flow switch interlock. An external field installed flow switch must be wired into the unit terminal strip.When an open condition is detected for six (6) seconds or longer, the compressors will shut down and after five (5) minutes an automatic resettable diagnostic alarm will be sent.
