*Current and voltage imbalance alarms x.25 and x.55 may be changed to
warnings x.27 and x.57 after successful start-up of the chiller.
†Compressors are equipped with 2 motor winding temperature ther-
mistors. Verify first that the problem is not a wiring error before using backup
thermistor.
**Reset automatic first time, manual if repeated on the same date.
††Note that the high-pressure switch should trip before this alert is generated.
Check HPS operation if this alert is generated.
NOTES:
1. Low Oil Pressure Alert Criteria and Set Points
Where: P
d
= Discharge pressure, P
s
= Suction pressure,
P
o
= Oil pressure and P
e
= Economizer pressure
Two oil pressure set points are used. Oil Set point 1 is always 15 psig.
a. If (P
d
−P
s
) <125, then Oil Set point 2 = 0.235 x (P
d
−P
s
) + 0.588
b. If (P
d
−P
s
) > = 125 and <165, then Oil Set point2=2.0x(P
d
−P
s
)
− 220.0
c. If (P
d
−P
s
) > = 165, then Oil Set point 2 = 0.6364 x (P
d
−P
s
) + 5.0
The 2 set points are used by the control for the Low Oil Pressure alert trip
criteria below:
a. Oil Pressure is ignored during the first 5 seconds after a compressor is
started.
b. In period between 5 and 30 seconds after starting, the alert will be gen-
erated if (P
o
−P
e
) < [(Oil Set point 1)/30] x (Compressor Run time in
seconds) for 3 consecutive readings
c. After 30 seconds run time, the alert will be generated if:
1) (P
o
−P
e
) < Oil Set point 1 for 15 seconds OR
2) (P
o
−P
s
) < Oil Set point 2 for 25 seconds
2. (P
o
−P
e
) is the Oil pressure differential displayed in for Circuit A
and for Circuit B.
