MODIFY CONTROLLER IDENTIFICATION IF NECES-
SARY — The controller identification screen is used to change
the PSIO module address. Change this address for each chiller
if there is more than one chiller at the jobsite. Write the new
address on the PSIO module for future reference.

Change the LID address if there is more than one chiller

on the jobsite. Access the LID configuration screen to view
or modify this address.
INPUT EQUIPMENT SERVICE PARAMETERS IF NEC-
ESSARY — The Equipment Service table has three service
tables: Service1, Service2, and Service3.

Configure SERVICE1 Table — Access Service1 table to
modify/view the following to jobsite parameters:

Chilled Medium

NOTE: Other values are left at the default values. These may be changed
by the operator as required. Service2 and Service3 tables can be modi-
fied by the owner/operator as required.

Modify Minimum and Maximum Load Points (

⌬T1/P1;

⌬ T2/P2) If Necessary —These pairs of chiller load points,
located on the Service1 table, determine when to limit guide
vane travel or to open the hot gas bypass valve when surge
prevention is needed. These points should be set based on
individual chiller operating conditions.

If, after configuring a value for these points, surge pre-

vention is operating too soon or too late for conditions, these
parameters should be changed by the operator.

Example of configuration: Chiller operating parameters
Refrigerant used: HCFC-22
Estimated Minimum Load Conditions:

44 F (6.7 C) LCW
45.5 F (7.5 C) ECW
43 F (6.1 C) Suction Temperature
70 F (21.1 C) Condensing Temperature

Estimated Maximum Load Conditions:

44 F (6.7 C) LCW
54 F (12.2 C) ECW
42 F (5.6 C) Suction Temperature
98 F (36.7 C) Condensing Temperature

Calculate Maximum Load — To calculate maximum load
points, use design load condition data. If the chiller full load
cooler temperature difference is more than 15° F (8.3 C),

estimate the refrigerant suction and condensing tempera-
tures at this difference. Use the proper saturated pressure and
temperature for the particular refrigerant used.

Suction Temperature:

42 F (5.6 C) = 71.5 psig (521 kPa) saturated

refrigerant pressure (HCFC-22)

Condensing Temperature:

98 F (36.7 C) = 190 psig (1310 kPa) saturated

refrigerant pressure (HCFC-22)

Maximum Load

⌬T2:

54 – 44 = 10° F (12.2 – 6.7 = 5.5° C)

Maximum Load

⌬P2:

190 – 71.5 = 118.5 psid (1310 – 521 = 789 kPad)

To avoid unnecessary surge prevention, add about 10 psid

(70 kPad) to

⌬P2 from these conditions:

⌬T2 = 10° F (5.5° C)

⌬P2 = 130 psid (900 kPad)

Calculate Minimum Load — To calculate minimum load con-
ditions, estimate the temperature difference that the cooler
will have at 10% load, then estimate what the suction and
condensing temperatures will be at this point. Use the proper
saturated pressure and temperature for the particular refrig-
erant used.

Suction Temperature:

43 F (6.1 C) = 73 psig (503 kPa) saturated

refrigerant pressure (HCFC-22)

Condensing Temperature:

70 F (21.1 C) = 121 psig (834 kPa) saturated

refrigerant pressure (HCFC-22)

Minimum Load

⌬T1:

45.5 – 44 = 1.5° F (7.5 – 6.7 = 0.8° C)

Minimum Load

⌬P1:

121 – 73 = 45 psid (834 – 503 = 331 kPad)

Again, to avoid unnecessary surge prevention, add 10 psid

(70 kPad) at

⌬P1 from these conditions:

⌬T1 = 1.5 F (0.8 C)

⌬P1 = 60 psid (410 kPad)

If surge prevention occurs too soon or too late:
