Start-Up/Shutdown/Recycle Sequence (

Figure 25

)

Local Start-Up

Local start-up (or a manual start-up) is initiated by pressing the LOCAL menu softkey which

is on the default LID screen. Local start-up can proceed when Time Schedule 01 is in

OCCUPIED mode, and after the internal 15-minute start-to-start timer and the stop-to-start

inhibit timer have expired.

The chiller start/stop status point on the Status01 table may be overridden to start,

regardless of the time schedule, in order to locally start the unit. Also, the remote contacts may

be enabled through the LID and closed to initiate a start-up.

Whenever the chiller is in LOCAL control mode, the PIC will wait for Time Schedule 01 to

become occupied and the remote contacts to close, if enabled. The PIC will then perform a

series of pre-start checks to verify that all pre-start alerts and safeties are within the limits

shown in

Table 3

. The run status line on the LID now reads ‘‘Starting.’’ If the checks are

successful, the chilled water/brine pump relay will be energized. Five seconds later, the

condenser pump relay is energized. Thirty seconds later the PIC monitors the chilled water and

condenser water flow switches, and waits until the

WATER FLOW VERIFY TIME

(operator

configured, default 5 minutes) to confirm flow. After flow is verified, the chilled water/brine

temperature is compared to

CONTROL POINT

plus

DEADBAND

. If the temperature is less

than or equal to this value, the PIC will turn off the condenser pump relay and go into a
