Design Features & Information
CONTROL SCHEME
FEATURES
Airedale recognises that all chiller applications are different but fall mainly into 2
application categories; Variable Supply Temperature and Constant Supply Temperature.
The onboard microprocessor has the capability of satisfying either control requirement as
illustrated below. Using the Airedale Variable Supply Temperature control scheme,
energy savings are available when compared with previous schemes and that of the
Constant Supply Temperature application.
Variable Supply Temperature control schemes offer energy savings where the supply
water temperature is not critical to its operation.
Selection of the best application control scheme can be made via a soft switch in the
microprocessor during initial commissioning.
