Table 3 — Protective Safety Limits and Control Settings
Shunt Trip (Option) —
The function of the shunt trip
option on the PIC II is to act as a safety trip. The shunt trip is
wired from an output on the ISM to a shunt trip equipped mo-
tor circuit breaker. If the PIC II tries to shut down the compres-
sor using a normal shutdown procedure but is unsuccessful for
20 seconds, the shunt trip output is energized and causes the
circuit breaker to trip off. If ground fault protection has been
applied to the starter, the ground fault trip also energizes the
shunt trip to trip the circuit breaker. Protective devices in the
starter can also energize the shunt trip. The shunt trip feature
can be tested using the Control Test feature.
Default Screen Freeze —
When the chiller is in an
alarm state, the default CVC display “freezes,” that is, it stops
updating. The first line of the CVC default screen displays a
primary alarm message; the second line displays a secondary
alarm message.
The CVC default screen freezes to enable the operator to
see the conditions of the chiller at the time of the alarm. If the
value in alarm is one normally displayed on the default screen,
it flashes between normal and reverse video. The CVC default
screen remains frozen until the condition that caused the alarm
is remedied by the operator. Use CVC display and alarm shut-
down record sheet (CL-14) to record all values from default
screen freeze.
Knowledge of the operating state of the chiller at the time an
alarm occurs is useful when troubleshooting. Additional chiller
information can be viewed on the status screens and the
ISM_HIST screen. Troubleshooting information is recorded in
the ALARM HISTORY table, which can be accessed from the
SERVICE menu.
To determine what caused the alarm, the operator should
read both the primary and secondary default screen messages,
as well as the alarm history. The primary message indicates the
most recent alarm condition. The secondary message gives
more detail on the alarm condition. Since there may be more
than one alarm condition, another alarm message may appear
after the first condition is cleared. Check the ALARM HISTO-
RY screen for additional help in determining the reasons for the
alarms. Once all existing alarms are cleared (by pressing the
softkey), the default CVC display returns to normal
operation.
