CAUTION
Significant changes in the chilled water flow rate through the evaporators can result when chillers in Figure 6 are
turned on or off. Large flow rate changes can cause erratic chiller control.
Secondary Pump/Decoupler Line Configuration
Figure 7 through Figure 10 represent the four secondary pump control options available using the CSM.

Using the variable-speed secondary pump maintains a desired pressure across the chilled water loop.
Note: A pressure-controlled loop bypass (see Figure 11) may not be used with variable-speed secondary pump(s).
