If Energy saver chilled water is available (inlet water temperature is below
energy saver water thermostat set in menu B-setpoint), the chilled water will be
used as a primary cooling, and DX will be a supplemental cooling.
The Energy Saver/Auxiliary Chilled Water Cooling logic will be the same as the
chilled water cooling logic of the discharge air temperature control, this means
dap4™ uses a preset PID loop to control the CW valve to maintain a discharge
air temperature setpoint,
Low discharge temperature alarm limit must be set in menu K-Alarms & Limits. If
Discharge temperature drops below this limit, compressors will be inhibited for at
least 15 minutes and discharge temperature rises above this limit.
If discharge temperature drops below the limit while the variable speed
compressor finishing its minimum runtime the CW should close until discharge
temperature rises above the limit.
The following is the compressor staging sequence.
Compressors on cycle with energy saver
Variable speed compressor C1 comes on at Temperature Setpoint +
Temperature Deadband + STS Band. Once variable speed compressor comes on
it will use PID logic to maintain temperature setpoint + 1⁰F (to make sure CW is
fully utilized).
Fixed speed compressor C2 (*) comes on at Temperature Setpoint +
Temperature Deadband + 1⁰F + STS DB and variable speed compressor C1 has
operated at 95% for at least the C2 on delay.
Compressors off cycle during energy saver mode
Fixed speed compressor c2 (*) cycles off at Temperature Setpoint + STS DB for
a C2 off delay duration and variable speed compressor C1 runs at 100% .
Variable speed compressor C1 cycles off at Temperature Setpoint Compressor
will not violate its minimum runtime and short cycle regulation.
* This applies on dual compressor system.
9.3 Safeties and Alarms
NOTE:
All suction safeties are only applied to the variable speed
compressor, not the fixed speed compressor.
