2. Insert and secure the red (+) wire to terminal 5 of the

space temperature sensor terminal block.

3. Insert and secure the white (ground) wire to terminal 4 of

the space temperature sensor.

4. Insert and secure the black (–) wire to terminal 2 of the

space temperature sensor.

5. Connect the other end of the communication bus cable to

the remainder of the CCN communication bus.

Energy Management Module (Fig. 10) —

This

factory-installed option (FIOP) or field-installed accessory is

used for the following types of temperature reset, demand

limit, and/or ice features:

• 4 to 20 mA leaving fluid temperature reset (requires

field-supplied 4 to 20 mA generator)

• 4 to 20 mA cooling set point reset (requires field-

supplied 4 to 20 mA generator)

• Discrete inputs for 2-step demand limit (requires field-

supplied dry contacts capable of handling a 24 vac,

50 mA load)

• 4 to 20 mA demand limit (requires field-supplied 4 to

20 mA generator)

• Discrete input for Ice Done switch (requires field-

supplied dry contacts capable of handling a 24 vac,

50 mA load)

See Demand Limit and Temperature Reset sections on

pages 27 and 31 for further details.

Loss-of-Cooler Flow Protection —

A proof-of-

cooler flow device is factory installed in all chillers.

Condenser Flow Protection —

A proof-of-condens-

er flow protection accessory can be field installed in the con-

denser water piping of all chillers. The unit must be configured

for the input to be enabled.

Thermostatic Expansion Valves (TXV) —

All

units are equipped from the factory with conventional TXVs.

The 30MPA units and 30MPW units with medium temperature

brine also have factory-installed liquid line solenoids. The liq-

uid line solenoid valves are not intended to be a mechanical

shut-off. For 30MPW units, when service is required, reclaim

the refrigerant from the system.

For 30MPA units when service is required, the compressor

and evaporator can be serviced by closing the factory-installed

liquid line service valve and field-installed discharge line ser-

vice valve. After the valves are closed, reclaim the refrigerant

from the system.

The TXV is set at the factory to maintain approximately 8 to

12° F (4.4 to 6.7° C) suction superheat leaving the cooler by

monitoring the proper amount of refrigerant into the cooler. All

TXVs are adjustable, but should not be adjusted unless abso-

lutely necessary.

Capacity Control —

The control system cycles com-

pressors, digital scroll modulting solenoid (if equipped), and

minimum load valve solenoids (if equipped) to maintain the

user-configured leaving chilled fluid temperature set point. En-

tering fluid temperature is used by the main base board (MBB)

to determine the temperature drop across the cooler and is used

in determining the optimum time to add or subtract capacity

stages. The chilled fluid temperature set point can be automati-

cally reset by the return fluid temperature, space, or outdoor-air

temperature reset features. It can also be reset from an external

4 to 20-mA signal (requires energy management module FIOP

or accessory).

The capacity control algorithm runs every 30 seconds. The

algorithm attempts to maintain the Control Point at the desired

set point. Each time it runs, the control reads the entering and

leaving fluid temperatures. The control determines the rate at

which conditions are changing and calculates 2 variables based

on these conditions. Next, a capacity ratio is calculated using

the 2 variables to determine whether or not to make any

changes to the current stages of capacity. This ratio value

ranges from –100 to +100%. If the next stage of capacity is a

compressor, the control starts (stops) a compressor when the

ratio reaches +100% (–100%). If installed, the minimum load

valve solenoid will be energized with the first stage of capacity.

Minimum load valve value is a fixed 30% in the total capacity

calculation. The control will also use the minimum load valve

solenoid as the last stage of capacity before turning off the last

compressor. A delay of 90 seconds occurs after each capacity

step change. Refer to Table 19.
MINUTES LEFT FOR START — This value is displayed

only in the network display tables (using Service Tool,

ComfortVIEW™ or ComfortWORKS

®

software) and

represents the amount of time to elapse before the unit will start

its initialization routine. This value can be zero without the

machine running in many situations. This can include being

unoccupied, ENABLE/OFF/REMOTE CONTACT switch in

the OFF position, CCN not allowing unit to start, Demand

Limit in effect, no call for cooling due to no load, and alarm or

alert conditions present. If the machine should be running and

none of the above are true, a minimum off time (DELY, see

below) may be in effect. The machine should start normally

once the time limit has expired.
MINUTES OFF TIME (Configuration

OPT2

DELY) — This user-configurable time period is used by the

control to determine how long unit operation is delayed after

power is applied/restored to the unit. Typically, this time period

is configured when multiple machines are located on a single

site. For example, this gives the user the ability to prevent all

the units from restarting at once after a power failure. A value

of zero for this variable does not mean that the unit should be

running.
LEAD/LAG DETERMINATION — This is a configurable

choice and is factory set to be automatic for all units unless the

unit is equipped with minimum load, then circuit A is lead

(Configuration

OPT2

LLCS). The value can be changed

to Circuit A or Circuit B leading as desired. Set at automatic,

the control will sum the current number of logged circuit starts

and one-quarter of the current operating hours for each circuit.

The circuit with the lowest sum is started first. Changes to

which circuit is the lead circuit and which is the lag are also

made when total machine capacity is at 100% or when there is

a change in the direction of capacity (increase or decrease) and

each circuit’s capacity is equal.
CAPACITY CONTROL OVERRIDES — The following over-

rides will modify the normal operation of the routine.
Deadband Multiplier — The user configurable Deadband

Multiplier (Configuration

SLCT

Z.GN) has a default

value of 1.0. The range is from 1.0 to 4.0. When set to other

than 1.0, this factor is applied to the capacity Load/Unload

Factor. The larger this value is set, the longer the control will

delay between adding or removing stages of capacity. Figure

11 shows how compressor starts can be reduced over time if

the leaving water temperature is allowed to drift a larger

amount above and below the set point. This value should be set

in the range of 3.0 to 4.0 for systems with small loop volumes.

Figure 12 shows the operating envelope for the compressor.

CAUTION

Care should be taken when interfacing with other manufac-

turer’s control systems due to possible power supply

differences, full wave bridge versus half wave rectification.

The two different power supplies cannot be mixed.

ComfortLink™ controls use half wave rectification. A

signal isolation device should be utilized if a full wave

bridge signal generating device is used.
