Current Limit Protection

Current Limit Protections exist to avoid motor current overload and damage to the compressor motor during starting and running.

Compressor motor current is continuously monitored and current is controlled via a limit function that to prevent running into over current diagnostic trips.

The current limit control logic attempts to prevent the motor from shutting down on a diagnostic trip by limiting compressor current draw relative to an adjustable current limit DynaViewCurrent Limit Setpoint. This setpoint can also be lowered to provide electrical demand limiting on the unit as required. This could also be set to allow the Chiller to continue to run at a lower load to avoid tripping off via a diagnostic.

The Current Limit function uses a PID algorithm (Similar to the Leaving Water Temperature control) that allows the chiller to run at the Current Limit Setpoint. At machine startup, or with any setpoint change the new current limit setpoint reached after the is filtered setpoint time elapses. The minimum current limit setpoint is default set to 40 percent RLA (20-100 percent). The filtering time is default set to 10 minutes (0-120 minutes), however these can be altered via the service tool. This filtered setpoint allows for stable control if the Current Limit setpoint is adjusted during a run.

The Current Limit Setpoint (CLS) can be changed from: Front Panel, External Analog input (with GBAS option), or Tracer (Tracer option). However, If present Tracer current setpoint has the highest priority, unless disabled in the DynaViewSetpoint source override menu. The External CLS has second priority, and will be used if Tracer is disabled or not installed. The Front Panel Setpoint has the lowest priority, and will be used if Tracer and the External CLS are both disabled.

Phase Loss Protection

Loss of phase detection protects the chiller motor from damage due to a single-phasing condition. The controls will shut down the chiller if any of the three phase currents feeding the motor are lost. The shutdown will result in a latching diagnostic indicating the failure. The motor is protected from over-current during a single-phase condition by the Current Overload Protection feature. Phase Loss Protection provides redundant protection and a diagnostic that more accurately describes the fault.

Reverse Rotation Protection

This function protects the compressor from being driven in the reverse direction. Incorrect phase rotation detection results in a manually resettable diagnostic. Phase Reversal protection is default to Enable, however can be disabled via the service tool.

Phase Imbalance Protection CH530 provides phase imbalance protection based on the average three-phase current. The three phase currents supplied to the motor are monitored for unequal amperage draw. Motor overload is not considered to be a problem since each phase of the motor is monitored for overcurrent. In addition, since each phase is monitored for loss of current, the motor will be protected against single phasing.

Under and Over Voltage Protection

Under/over voltage protection can be enabled (default) or disabled via TechView.

If Disabled : No effect.

If Enabled :

and an Overvoltage condition occurs:

-Diagnostic called when the average of the three line voltages is greater than 112.5% of the unit line voltage set point for 60 seconds.

-Diagnostic cleared when the average of the three line voltages is 110% or less of the unit line voltage set point.

and an Undervoltage condition occurs:

-Diagnostic called when the average of the three line voltages is less than 87.5% of the unit line voltage set point for 60 seconds.

-Diagnostic cleared when the average of the three line voltages is 90% or greater of the unit line voltage set point.
