DEMAND LIMIT
Enabling the DEMAND LIMIT function limits the capacity delivered so as to contain the power consumed by
the unit.

Control logic:
The number of compressors available to the unit to satisfy the heating or cooling requirements is determined
based on a 0-10Vdc / 4-20mA signal connected to the Demand Limit analogue input. The higher the value
of the signal, the less capacity will be available to the system, as highlighted in the graphs below.

NOTE
As the 0-10Vdc/4..20mA signal changes, to avoid
unwanted and continuous changes in the number of
resources available to the temperature controller, a
time = “Treation” is considered, in which the signal
must remain stable above the step activation or
deactivation threshold before modifying the
percentage of capacity available to the system.
