Operator’s Guide
Eight Equal Sized Compressors, Eight Circuits, No WRV
Only one sequence is provided so the user makes no selections.
• Total cooling stages = 8.
• Maximum cooling stages is always set to 8.
• The Staging sequence is the Standard sequence that contains the enabled Stage 1
Compressor with the fewest run hours. Compressors in disabled circuits are ignored when
only enabled compressor run hours are compared.
• The Compressor Sequence changes only when the compressor stage is Maximum cooling
stages or zero. This means that disabling and re-enabling the compressors or turning the unit
off and on may be necessary to cause sequence changes.
• The same staging sequence is used whether a circuit is disabled or not. This means that units
will remain at a stage for an extra stage time when staging up if a disabled circuit is added at
that stage. It also means that units will remain at a stage for an extra stage times when
staging down if a disabled circuit is turned off at that stage.
• Any compressor on the disabled circuit stays off if it is already off and is turned off if it is
on.
