The Destage Function Timer is programmable to
avoid frequent staging/destaging of the fixed speed
pumps. The Destage Function Time starts when the
adjustable speed pump is running at par. 4-11 Motor
Speed Low Limit [RPM] or par. 4-12 Motor Speed Low
Limit [Hz], with one or more fixed speed pumps in
operation and system requirements satisfied. In this
situation, the adjustable speed pump contributes a
little to the system. When the programmed value of
the timer expires, a stage is removed, avoiding dead
head water circulation in the adjustable speed
pump.
