Compression ratio protection
▪ Purpose
Prevent compressor damage due to abnormal operation.
Failure may occur due to an overload of compressors if the compression ratio is high.
▪ Concept
▪ Control specifications in detail
- If the compression ratio is high,
1st step Increase of the superheat degree : The superheat degree for compressor suction is increased .
2nd step Increase of the minimum compressor frequency : The minimum compressor frequency is increased to
the predefined model-specific frequency.
3rd step Comp Trip : If in critical state for 10 min, stop the compressors and trigger an error (E428).
