SECTION 1 - YKEP CHILLER OVERVIEW
Economizer Compressor Stop criteria:
Primary Compressor Calculated Flow ≤ the prescribed
Start criteria line minus 2000 CFM
3. When the primary compressor capacity reaches
full capacity dened by either 100% input cur-
rent FLA or fully open PRV and full speed (VSD
starter types), the economizer compressor switch-
es to Boost operating mode. In this mode, the
economizer compressor capacity is controlled
to maintain leaving chilled liquid temperature
at setpoint and the primary compressor is given
a leaving chilled liquid temperature target 1 de-
gree F below the chiller setpoint to keep it fully
loaded. The economizer compressor is then con-
trolled to maintain the chiller programmed leav-
ing chilled liquid temperature setpoint using its
PRV’s. As additional capacity is required, the
economizer compressor draws the economizer
pressure lower, increasing the refrigeration effect
