Oil separators utilize no moving parts. Oil cooling is
accomplished by refrigerant leaving the eductor flash-
ing in the suction line which cools the oil, motor and
compressor.
An integral liquid cooled, transistorized, PWM,
Variable Speed Drive (VSD) is controlled by the chiller
microprocessor control panel to start/stop, select com-
pressors to run, and select compressor speed. Displace-
ment Power Factor is 0. 95 at part or full load.
The chiller microprocessor communicates with the
VSD Logic Board via a 3-wire RS-485 opto coupled
data link. The VSD Logic Board runs the number of
compressors required to meet the load and the com-
pressors to the speed requested by the chiller micro-
processor.
The basic system control and VSD system architecture
is shown in Figure 2 on Page 16.
