SECTION 6 – COMMISSIONING
COMMISSIONING THE PUMP VFD
1. Put pump in HAND mode.
LD18418
2. Change parameter 0-20 (default value is option
1601 – “Reference [Unit]”) to option 1850 “Sen-
sorless Readout” to display Sensorless ow read-
out on top le corner of screen.
LD18419
3. Change parameter 0-22 (default value is option
1610 – “Power [kW]”) to option 1654 “Feedback
1 [unit]” to display Sensorless pressure readout on
top right corner of screen.
4. Check with customer regarding new actual ow
and head and verify what ow is required. Ramp
the pump up or down to achieve requested ow.
Record the VFD sensorless ow and pressure –
this will be your new setpoint.
5. Set parameter 20-21 to the Sensorless Pressure
readout taken in the previous step.

6. Set parameter 22-89 to the Sensorless Flow read-
out taken in the previous step.
LD18423
7. Set parameter 22-87 to a value that is X% of the
value in 20-21. is percentage needs to be calcu-
lated based on the design ow and the published
minimum ow for the unit. is ensures that the
drive will not allow the pump to operate below the
minimum ow of the chiller. You have now read-
justed the quadratic control curve to match actual
site conditions.
8. Change parameter 0-20 back to default value of
option 1601 – “Reference [Unit]”.
9. Change parameter 0-22 back to default value of
option 1610 – “Power [kW]”.
