SiUS04-924 Main Functions
12 Function and Control
1. Main Functions
1.1 Frequency Principle
Main Control
Parameters
The compressor is frequency-controlled during normal operation. The target frequency is set by the
following 2 parameters coming from the operating indoor unit:
The load condition of the operating indoor unit
The difference between the room temperature and the set temperature
Additional
Control
Parameters
The target frequency is adapted by additional parameters in the following cases:
Frequency restrictions
Initial settings
Forced cooling operation
Inverter Principle To regulate the capacity, a frequency control is needed. The inverter makes it possible to vary the
rotation speed of the compressor. The following table explains the conversion principle:
Drawing of
Inverter
The following drawing shows a schematic view of the inverter principle:
Inverter Features The inverter provides the following features:
The regulating capacity can be changed according to the changes in the outdoor air
temperature and cooling / heating load.
Quick heating and quick cooling.
Phase Description
1 The supplied AC power source is converted into a DC power source.
2 The DC power source is reconverted into a three-phase AC power source with variable
frequency.
When the frequency increases, the rotation speed of the compressor increases resulting in
increased refrigerant circulation. This leads to a higher amount of heat exchange per unit.
When the frequency decreases, the rotation speed of the compressor decreases resulting
in decreased refrigerant circulation. This leads to a lower amount of heat exchange per unit.
