Override #14: Slow Change Override — This override pre-

vents compressor stage changes when the leaving temperature

is close to the control point and slowly moving towards it.
Override #15: System Manager Capacity Control — If a

Chillervisor module is controlling the unit and multiple chill-

ers, the unit will increase capacity to attempt to load to the de-

mand limited value.
Override #16: Circuit A High Pressure Override

Override #17: Circuit B High Pressure Override — This

override attempts to avoid a high pressure failure. The algo-

rithm is run every 4 seconds. If the Saturated Condensing Tem-

perature for the circuit is above the High Pressure Threshold

(High Pressure Threshold, HP.TH) then the position of slide

valve will be unloaded.
Override #19: Standby Mode — This override algorithm will

not allow a compressor to run if the unit is in Standby mode,

(Heat/Cool Status, HC.ST=2).
Override #22: Minimum On Time Delay — In addition to

Override #13 Minimum On/Off and Off/On Time Delay, for

compressor capacity changes, an additional 90-second delay

will be added to Override #13 delay. No compressor will be

deenergized until 3 minutes have elapsed since the last com-

pressor has been turned ON. When this override is active, the

capacity control algorithm calculations will be performed, but

no capacity reduction will be made until the timer has expired.

A control with higher precedence will override the Minimum

On Time Delay.
Override #23: Circuit A Low Saturated Suction Tempera-

ture in Cooling

Override #24: Circuit B Low Saturated Suction Tempera-

ture in Cooling — If the circuit is operating close to the opera-

tional limit of the compressor, the circuit capacity will remain at

the same point or unload to raise the saturated suction tempera-

ture. This algorithm will be active if at least 1 compressor in the

circuit is on and one of the following conditions is true:

1. Saturated Suction Temperature is less than the Brine

Freeze Setpoint (Brine Freeze Setpoint, LOSP) –6º F

(3.3º C).

2. Saturated Suction Temperature is less than the Brine

Freeze Setpoint (Brine Freeze Setpoint, LOSP) and the

circuit approach (Leaving Water Temperature – Saturated

Suction Temperature) is greater than 15º F (8.3º C) and

the Circuit Superheat (Discharge Gas Temperature – Sat-

urated Discharge Temperature) is greater than 25º F

(13.9º C).
NOTE: The freeze set point is 34 F (1.1 C) for fresh

water systems (Cooler Fluid Type, FLUD=1). The

freeze set point is Brine Freeze Set Point (Brine Freeze

Setpoint, LOSP), for Medium Temperature Brine

systems (Cooler Fluid Type, FLUD=2).

If any of these conditions are met, the appropriate operating

mode, 21 (Circuit A) or 22 (Circuit B) will be in effect.
Override #34: Circuit A Low Refrigerant Charge

Override #35: Circuit B Low Refrigerant Charge — The ca-

pacity override attempts to protect the compressor from start-

ing with no refrigerant in the circuit. This algorithm runs only

when the circuit is not operational (compressors is OFF). There

are several criteria that will enable this override:

1. The saturated suction temperature or saturated discharge

temperature is less than –13 F (–25 C).

2. All of these conditions must be true:

a. The saturated suction temperature or saturated

discharge temperature is less than leaving fluid

temperature by more than 5.4º F (3.0º C).

b. Saturated suction temperature or saturated dis-

charge temperature is less than 41 F (5 C).

c. Outdoor air temperature is less than 32 F (0º C).
d. Saturated suction temperature or saturated discharge

temperature is less than the outdoor air temperature

by more than 5.4º F (3.0º C).

3. All of these conditions must be true:

a. The saturated suction temperature or saturated

discharge temperature is less than leaving fluid

temperature by more than 5.4º F (3.0º C).

b. Saturated suction temperature or saturated dis-

charge temperature is less than 41 F (5 C).

c. Saturated suction temperature or saturated dis-

charge temperature is less than the brine freeze

point (Brine Freeze Setpoint, LOSP) by more

than 6º F (3.3º C).
NOTE: The freeze set point is 34 F (1.1 C)

for fresh water systems (Brine Freeze Setpoint,

FLUD=1). The freeze set point is brine freeze set

point (Brine Freeze Setpoint, LOSP), for medium

temperature brine systems (Cooler Fluid Type,

FLUD=2).

4. All of these conditions must be true:

a. The saturated suction temperature or saturated

discharge temperature is less than leaving water

temperature by more than 5.4º F (3.0º C).

b. Saturated suction temperature or saturated discharge

temperature is less than 41 F (5 C).

c. Saturated suction temperature or saturated discharge

temperature is less than the outdoor-air temperature

by more than 9º F (5º C).

If any of these conditions 1, 2, 3 or 4 are met, the appropri-

ate operating mode, 21 (Circuit A) or 22 (Circuit B) will be in

effect.
Override #41: Circuit A High Current Override

Override #42: Circuit B High Current Override — This

override attempts to avoid an overcurrent failure. The algo-

rithm is run every 4 seconds. If the compressor current is great-

er than 79% of must trip amps (MTA) but less than 85% MTA

then the capacity will be held at current capacity. If the com-

pressor current is greater than 85% MTA then capacity will be

reduced by repositioning the slide valve until the current is less

than 85% MTA (Must Trip Amps, MTA.X).
Override #44: Circuit A High Suction Superheat at Part

Load

Override #45: Circuit B High Suction Superheat at Part

Load — If the compressor of the circuit is on, the compressor

current is no more than 30% of the MTA, main EXV is more

than 90% open and the suction superheat is higher than the

superheat control point for more than 5 minutes, then the cir-

cuit will be shut down.
Override #53: Circuit A Delay for Unloading the Slide

Valve

Override #54: Circuit B Delay for Unloading the Slide

Valve — This override prevents the compressor from re-start-

ing with locked rotor failure after being shutdown due to an

alarm or power cycle. The delay varies depending on the size

of the compressor. Refer to Table 34 for compressor nominal

capacities. A delay of 20 minutes will elapse for 182 and

204 ton compressors. The delay allows the slide valve of the

compressor to move back to its fully unloaded position. The

delay is adjusted according to the percent of the compressor

running capacity before it is shut down. If the compressor is

stopped normally, no delay will be applied. If the compressor is

shut down by the locked rotor alarm, a full delay will be ap-

plied before the compressor is allowed to re-start.
