1 SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

1.1 General

Installation, start-up and servicing of equipment can be hazardous if certain factors particular to the installation are not considered: operating pressures, presence of electrical components and voltages and the installation site (elevated plinths and built-up up structures). Only properly qualified installation engineers and highly qualified installers and technicians, fully trained for the product, are authorized to install and start-up the equipment safely.

During all servicing operations, all instructions and recommendations, which appear in the installation and service instructions for the product, as well as on tags and labels fixed to the equipment and components and accompanying parts supplied separately, must be read, understood and followed.

Apply all standard safety codes and practices.

Wear safety glasses and gloves.

Use the proper tools to move heavy objects. Move units carefully and set them down gently.

1.2 Avoid electrocution

Only personnel qualified in accordance with IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) recommendations may be permitted access to electrical components. It is particularly recommended that all sources of electricity to the unit be shut off before any work is begun. Shut off main power supply at the main circuit breaker or isolator.

IMPORTANT: This equipment uses and emits electromagnetic signals. Tests have shown that the equipment conforms to all applicable codes with respect to electromagnetic compatibility.

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Avoid electrocution - 1

RISK OF ELECTROCUTION: Even when the main circuit breaker or isolator is switched off, certain circuits may still be energized, since they may be connected to a separate power source.

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Avoid electrocution - 2

RISK OF BURNS: Electrical currents cause components to get hot either temporarily or permanently. Handle power cable, electrical cables and conduits, terminal box covers and motor frames with great care.

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Avoid electrocution - 3

In accordance with the operating conditions the fans can be cleaned periodically. A fan can start at any time, even if the unit has been shut down.

1.3 Safety Devices

Each unit is equipped with safety devices of three different kinds:

  • Emergency Stop
    • Overcurrent/Overload Protections
    • Overtemperature Protections
  • Phase reversal, under/over voltage, ground fault protections
  • Phase reversal, under/over voltage, ground fault protections
  • Freezing protection
    • High Pressure Protection
  • Low Pressure Protection
    • Mechanical High Pressure Switch
  • Relief Safety Valve
    • Inverter fault auto diagnostic

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Safety Devices - 1

The emergency stop causes all motors to stop, but does not switch off power to the unit. Do not service or operate on the unit without having switched off the main switch.

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Safety Devices - 2

Do not operate on a faulty fan before the main switch has been shut off. Overtemperature protection is auto-reset, therefore a fan may restart automatically if temperature conditions allow it.

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Safety Devices - 3

Direct intervention on the power supply can cause electrocution, burns or even death. This action must be performed only by trained persons.

2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

2.1 Basic Information

Microtech® III-IV is a system for controlling single or dual-circuit air/water-cooled liquid chillers. Microtech® III-IV controls compressor start-up necessary to maintain the desired heat exchanger leaving water temperature. In each unit mode it controls the operation of the condensers to maintain the proper condensation process in each circuit.

Safety devices are constantly monitored by Microtech® III-IV to ensure their safe operation. Microtech® III-IV also gives access to a Test routine covering all inputs and outputs. All Microtech® III-iV controls can work in accordance with three independent modes:

  • Local mode: the unit is controlled by commands from the user interface.
  • Remote mode: the unit is controlled by remote contacts (volt-free contacts).
  • Network mode: the unit is controlled by commands from a BAS system. In this case, a data communication cable is used to connect the unit to the BAS.

When the Microtech® III-IV system operates autonomously (Local or Remote mode) it retains all of its own control capabilities but does not offer any of the features of the Network mode. In this case monitoring of the unit operational data is still allowed.

2.2 Abbreviations used

All boards are supplied from a common 24 Vac source. Extension boards can be directly powered by the Unit Controller. All boards can be also supplied by a 24Vdc source.

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Controller Architecture - 2

CAUTION: Maintain the correct polarity when connecting the power supply to the boards, otherwise the peripheral bus communication will not operate and the boards may be damaged.

2.5 Communication Modules

Any of the following modules can be connected directly to the left side of the main controller to allow a BAS or other remote interface to function. Up to three can be connected to the controller at a time. The controller should automatically detect and configure itself for new modules after booting up. Removing modules from the unit will require manually changing the configuration.

ModbusPOL902.00/MCQOptional
BACnet/MSTPPOL904.00/MCQOptional

The control system consists of a unit controller (UC) equipped with a set of extension modules that implement additional features. All boards communicate via an internal peripheral bus with the UC. The Microtech III-IV continuously manages the information received from the various pressure and temperature probes installed on the compressors and communicated to the unit. The UC incorporates a program that controls the unit.

The standard HMI consists of an inbuilt display (A) with 3 buttons (B) and a push'n'roll control (C).

UC A B C

The keypad/display (A) consists of a 5-line by 22 character display. The function of the three buttons (B) is described below:

Alarm status (from any page it links with the page with alarm list, alarm log and alarm snapshot if available)
Back to Main Page
Back to the previous level (it can be the Main Page)

The push'n'roll command (C) is used to scroll between the different menu pages, settings and data available on the HMI for the active password level. Rotating the wheel allows to navigate between lines on a screen (page) and to increase and decrease changeable values when editing. Pushing the wheel acts as an Enter Button and will jump from a link to the next set of parameters.

3.1 General Recommendation

Before switching on the unit read the following recommendations:

  • When all the operations and all the settings have been carried out, close all the switchbox panels.
  • The switchbox panels can only be opened by trained personnel.
  • When the UC requires to be accessed frequently the installation of a remote interface is strongly recommended.
  • Evaporator, compressors and related inverters are protected from freezing by electrical heaters. These heaters are supplied through unit main supply and temperature controlled by thermostat or by the unit controller. Also the LCD display of the unit controller may be damaged by extremely low temperatures. For this reason, it is strongly recommended to never power off the unit during winter, especially in cold climates.

3.2 Navigating

When power is applied to the control circuit, the controller screen will be active and display the Home screen, which can also be accessed by pressing the Menu Button. The navigating wheel is the only navigating device necessary, although the MENU, ALARM, and BACK buttons can provide shortcuts as explained previously.

An example of the HMI screens is shown in the following picture.

M a i n M e n u 1 / 11 E n t e r P a s s w o r d U n i t S t a t u s = O f f : U n i t S W A c t i v e S e t p t = 7 . 0 ° C

A bell ringing in the top right corner will indicate an active alarm. If the bell doesn't move it means that the alarm has been acknowledged but not cleared because the alarm condition hasn't been removed. A LED will also indicate where the alarm is located between the unit or circuits.

M a i n M e n u 1 / Ⓐ E n t e r P a s s w o r d ▶ U n i t S t a t u s = O f f : U n i t S W A c t i v e S e t p t = 7 . 0 ° C

The active item is highlighted in contrast, in this example the item highlighted in Main Menu is a link to another page. By pressing the push'n'roll, the HMI will jump to a different page. In this case the HMI will jump to the Enter Password page.

Enter Password2 / 2
Enter PW* * * *

3.3 Passwords

The HMI structure is based on access levels that means that each password will disclose all the settings and parameters allowed to that password level. Basic informations about the status including the active alarm list, active setpoint and controlled water temperature can be accessed without the need to enter the password. The user UC handles two level of passwords:

USER5321
MAINTENANCE2526

The following information will cover all data and settings accessible with the maintenance password.

In the Enter Password screen, the line with the password field will be highlighted to indicate that the field on the right can be changed. This represents a setpoint for the controller. Pressing the push'n'roll the individual field will be highlighted to allow an easy introduction of the numeric password. By changing all fields, the 4 digits password will be entered and, if correct, the additional settings available with that password level will be disclosed.

Enter Password2 / 2
Enter PW5 * * *

The password will time out after 10 minutes and is cancelled if a new password is entered or the control powers down. Entering an invalid password has the same effect as continuing without a password.

Once a valid password has been entered, the controller allows further changes and access without requiring the user to enter a password until either the password timer expires or a different password is entered. The default value for this password timer is 10 minutes. It is changeable from 3 to 30 minutes via the Timer Settings menu in the Extended Menus.

3.4 Editing

The Editing Mode is entered by pressing the navigation wheel while the cursor is pointing to a line containing an editable field. Once in the edit mode pressing the wheel again causes the editable field to be highlighted. Turning the wheel clockwise while the editable field is highlighted causes the value to be increased. Turning the wheel counter-clockwise while the editable field is highlighted causes the value to be decreased. The faster the wheel is turned, the faster the value is increased or decreased. Pressing the wheel again cause the new value to be saved and the keypad/display to leave the edit mode and return to the navigation mode.

A parameter with an "R" is read only; it is giving a value or description of a condition. An "R/w" indicates a read and/or write opportunity; a value can be read or changed (providing the proper password has been entered).

3.5 Basic Control System Diagnostic

MicroTech III-IV controller, extension modules and communication modules are equipped with two status LED (BSP and BUS) to indicate the operational status of the devices. The BUS LED indicates the status of the communication with the controller. The meaning of the two status LED is indicated below.

  • Unit/Circuit start-up
  • Alarm handling
  • BMS Control
  • Battery replacement

4.1 Unit Setup

Before starting up the unit, some basic settings need to be set by the customer according to the application.

  • Control Source
    • Available Modes
    • Temperature Settings
  • Alarm Settings
  • Pump Settings
    • Power Conservation
  • Date/Time
  • Scheduler

4.1.1 Control Source

This function allows to select which source should be used for unit control. The following sources are available:

Local Unit is enabled by local switches placed into the switchbox, chiller mode (cool, cool w/glycol, ice), LWT setpoint and capacity limit are determined by local settings in the HMI. Network Unit is enable by a remote switch, chiller mode, LWT setpoint and capacity limit are determined by an external BMS. This function requires: Remote enable connection to a BMS (unit on/off switch must be in remote) Communication module and its connection to a BMS.

4.1.2 Operating Mode

The following operating modes can be selected through the Available modes setpoint.

ModeDescription
CoolSet if only chilled water temperature up to 4 °C is required. No glycol is generally needed in the water circuit, unless ambient temperature may reach low values.
Cool w/GlycolSet if only chilled water temperature below 4 °C is required. This operation requires proper glycol/water mixture in the evaporator water circuit.
Cool/Ice w/GlycolSet in case only a dual cool/ice mode is required. This setting implies an operation with double setpoint which is activated through a customer supplied switch, according to the following logic: Switch OFF: The chiller will work in cooling mode with the Cool LWT 1 being as the Active Setpoint.Switch ON: The chiller will work in ice mode with the Ice LWT as the Active Setpoint.
Ice w/GlycolSet if only ice storage is required. The application requires the compressors to operate at full load until the ice bank is completed, and then to stop for at least 12 hours. In this mode the compressor(s) will not operate at part load, but will work only in on/off mode.
MultiPurposeSet in case a contemporary cool/heat mode is required. This setting implies an operation with double functioning,with the Cool LWT 1 as the cooling Active Setpoint andwith the Heat LWT 1 as the heating Active Setpoint.
MultiPurpose w/GlycolSet in case a contemporary cool/heat mode is required. This setting implies an operation with double functioning,with the Cool LWT 1 as the cooling Active Setpoint andwith the Heat LWT 1 as the heating Active Setpoint.
MultiPurpose/Ice w/GlycolSet in case a contemporary cool/heat mode is required. This setting implies an operation with double functioning,with the Ice LWT as the cooling Active Setpoint andwith the Heat LWT 1 as the heating Active Setpoint.
TestEnables the Manual Control of the unit. The manual test feature helps in debugging and checking the operational status of sensors and actuators. This feature is accessible only with the maintenance password in the main menu. To activate the test feature is required to disable the Unit from the Q0 switch and change the available mode to Test (see section 4.2.1).

4.1.3 Temperature Settings

Setpoint range is limited according to the selected operating mode. The controller includes:

  • two set points in cooling mode (either standard cool or cool w/glycol)
  • two set points in heating mode
    • one set point in ice mode

The above setpoints are activated according to Operating mode, Double Setpoint or Scheduler selection. If the Time Scheduler is enabled the Double Setpoint input state will be ignored by the controller.

The table below lists the LWT Setpoint being activated according to the operation mode, the double setpoint switch status and the scheduler state. The table also reports the defaults and the range allowed for each setpoint.

Operating ModeDouble Setpoint InputSchedulerLWT SetpointDefaultRange

(*) 30.0 °C ÷ 65.0 for HT unit type

The LWT setpoint can be overridden in case the setpoint reset or the quiet mode are activated.

4.1.4 Thermostatic control

Thermostatic control settings, allows to set up the response to temperature variations. Default settings are valid for most application, however plant specific conditions may require adjustments in order to have a smooth control or a quicker response of the unit.

The control will start the first compressor if the controlled temperature is higher (Cool Mode) or lower (Heat Mode) than the active setpoint of at least a Start Up DT value, whereas other compressors are started, step by step, if the controlled temperature is higher (Cool Mode) or lower (Heat Mode) than the active setpoint (AS) of at least a Stage Up DT (SU) value. Compressors stop if performed following same procedure looking to the parameters Stage Down DT and Shut Down DT.

Cool ModeHeat Mode
First compressor startsControlled Temperature > Setpoint + Start Up DTControlled Temperature < Setpoint - Start Up DT
Other compressors startControlled Temperature > Setpoint + Stage Up DTControlled Temperature < Setpoint - Stage Up DT
Last compressor stopControlled Temperature < Setpoint - Shut Dn DTControlled Temperature > Setpoint - Shut Dn DT
Other compressors stopControlled Temperature < Setpoint - Stage Dn DTControlled Temperature > Setpoint - Stage Dn DT

A qualitative example of compressors start-up sequence in cool mode operation is shown in the graph below.

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Thermostatic control - 1

line | Time Segment | ElWT [°C] | SP+StartUpΔT | SP+StageUpΔT | | ------------------------- | --------- | ------------ | ------------ | | First Compressor On | ~0.8 | - | - | | Compressor starting inhibited for maximum pull down rate | - | - | 1 | | Other Compressors On | - | - | 2 | | Dead band zone | - | - | 2 |

When controlled temperature is within the dead band (DB) error from the active setpoint (AS), unit capacity will not be changed.

If the leaving water temperature decreases below (Cool Mode) or rises above (Heat Mode) the active setpoint (AS), unit capacity is adjusted to keep it stable. A further decreasing (Cool Mode) or increasing (Heat Mode) of the controlled temperature of the Shut Down DT offset (SD) can cause circuit shutdown.

4.1.5 Pumps settings

The UC can manage one or two water pumps for both evaporator and, for W/C units, condenser. Number of pumps and their priority can be set from the HMI. The following options are available to control the pump(s):

1 only Set to this in case of single pump or twin pump with only #1 operational (f.e. in case of maintenance on #2).

2 Only Set to this in case of twin pump with only #2 operational (f.e. in case of maintenance on #1).

Auto Set for automatic pump start management. At each chiller start, the pump with the least number of hours will be activated.

1 Primary Set to this in case of twin pump with #1 running and #2 as a backup.

2 Primary Set to this in case of twin pump with #2 running and #1 as a backup.

4.1.6 Alarm Settings

If glycol is present in the water circuits, factory defaults values for the Alarm Limits listed below must be adjusted:

ParameterDescription
Low Press HoldSet the minimum refrigerant pressure of the unit. It is generally recommended to set to a value whose saturated temperature is 8 to 10 °C below the minimum active setpoint. This will allow a safe operation and a proper control of compressor suction superheat.
Low Press UnloadSet lower than the hold threshold enough to allow a suction pressure recovery from fast transients without unloading the compressor. A 20 kPa differential is generally appropriate for most applications.
Evap Water FrzStops the unit in case the leaving temperature falls below a given threshold. To allow a safe operation of the chiller, this setting must be adequate to the minimum temperature allowed by the mixture water/glycol present in the evaporator water circuit.
Cond water FrzStops the unit in case the leaving temperature falls below a given threshold. To allow a safe operation of the chiller, this setting must be adequate to the minimum temperature allowed by the mixture water/glycol present in the condenser water circuit.

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Alarm Settings - 1

When glycol is used in the plant, always disconnect antifreeze electric heater.

4.1.7 Power Conservation

Demand limit function allows the unit to be limited to a specified maximum load. Capacity limit level is defined with an external 4-20 mA signal and linear relationship. 4 mA indicate maximum capacity available whereas 20 mA indicates minimum capacity available.

With demand limit function is not possible shutdown the unit but only unload it until minimum admissible capacity. Demand limit related setpoints available through this menu are listed in the table below.

4.1.7.2 Current Limit (Optional)

Current limit function allows to control unit power consumption taking current drawn below a specific limit. Starting from the Current Limit Setpoint defined through the HMI or BAS communication, user can decrease the real limit using an external 4-20mA signal as indicate in the graph below. With 20 mA real current limit is set to Current Limit Setpoint, whereas with 4 mA signal the unit is unloaded until minimum capacity.

4.1.7.3 Setpoint Reset

The setpoint reset function overrides the water temperature setpoints selected through the interface, when certain circumstances occur. This feature helps in reducing energy consumption optimizing comfort as well. Three different control strategies can be selected:

  • Setpoint Reset by Outside Air Temperature (OAT)
  • Setpoint Reset by an external signal (4-20mA)
  • Setpoint Reset by Evaporator T (Return)

The following setpoints are available through this menu:

ParameterDescription
Setpoint ResetSet the Setpoint Reset mode (None, 4-20 mA, Return, OAT)
Max ResetMax Setpoint Reset (valid for all active modes)
Start Reset DTUsed on Setpoint Reset by Evaporator DT
Max Reset OATSee Setpoint Reset by OAT Reset
Strt Reset OATSee Setpoint Reset by OAT Reset

4.1.7.4 Setpoint Reset by OAT Reset

The active setpoint is calculated applying a correction which is a function of ambient temperature (OAT). As temperature drops below the Start Reset OAT (SROAT), Cool LWT setpoint is gradually increased until OAT reaches the Max Reset OAT value (MROAT). Beyond this value, the Cool LWT setpoint is increased by the Max Reset (MR) value. As temperature grow over the Start Reset OAT (SROAT), Heat LWT setpoint is gradually reduced until OAT reaches the Max Reset OAT value (MROAT). Above this value, the Heat LWT setpoint is decreased by the Max Reset (MR) value.

4.1.7.5 Setpoint Reset by External 4-20 mA Signal

The active setpoint is calculated applying a correction based on an external 4-20mA signal. 4 mA corresponds to 0 °C correction, while 20 mA corresponds to a correction of the active setpoints as set in Max Reset (MR).

4.1.7.6 Setpoint Reset by Evaporator Return Temperature

The active cooling setpoint is calculated applying a correction that depends on the evaporator entering (return) water temperature. The active heating setpoint is calculated applying a correction that depends on the condenser entering (return) water temperature.

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Setpoint Reset by Evaporator Return Temperature - 1

The Return Reset may affect negatively the chiller operation when operated with variable flow. Avoid to use this strategy in case of inverter water flow control.

4.1.8 Date/Time

4.1.8.1 Date, Time and UTC Settings

Date, time and UTC settings are available in the HMI.

4.1.8.2 Quiet Mode Scheduling

The Quiet Mode can be used to reduce chiller noise in certain hours of the day when noise reduction is more important than cooling operation, like for example in night time. When Quiet Mode is activated, the LWT setpoint is increased by the maximum setpoint reset (MR) described in the chapter "Setpoint Reset", thus forcing a capacity limitation to the unit without losing control on chilled water temperature. Also, condenser temperature target is increased by a value set in "QM Cond Offset". In this way condenser fans are forced to reduce speed without losing control on condensation. Quiet mode is timer enabled.

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Quiet Mode Scheduling - 1

The Quiet Mode may affect negatively chiller efficiency due to the increased condenser setpoint

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Switch Enable - 1

Local With the Q0 switch in this position the unit is enabled. Pump will start if all other enable signals are set to enable and at least one compressor is available to run.

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Switch Enable - 2

Disable With the Q0 switch in this position the unit is disabled. Pump will not start in normal operational condition. Compressor are kept disabled independently from the status of the individual enable switches.

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - Switch Enable - 3

Remote With the Q0 switch in this position the unit can be enabled using the additional connections available on the connection terminals. A closed loop will identify an enable signal, this can come from a remote switch or a timer by example.

The Keypad enable setpoint is not accessible by user password level. If it is set to "Disable", contact your local maintenance service to check if it can be changed to Enable.

4.2.1.4 BMS Enable

The last enable signal is coming through the high level interface, that is from a Building Management System. The unit can be enabled/disabled from a BMS connected to the UC using a communication protocol. In order to control the unit over the network, the Control Source setpoint must be turned in "Network" (default is Local) and Network En Sp must be "Enable". If disabled, check with your BAS company how the chiller is operated.

4.2.2 Unit Status

4.2.5 Circuit Preventions

4.2.5.1 High Water Temperature Limit

The only prevention that can activate at unit level will limit the maximum unit capacity to 80% when the leaving water temperature exceeds 25 °C in cooling or 60 °C in heating. This condition will be displayed at circuit level to indicate the capacity limitation.

SymptomCauseSolution
Unit maximum capacity equal to 80%Leaving Evaporator water temperature higher than 25 °C or Leaving Condenser water temperature higher than 60 °CWait until the water temperature drops below 25 °C

4.2.5.2 Low Evaporating Pressure

When the circuit is running and the evaporating pressure drops below the safety limits the circuit control logic reacts at two different levels in order to recover the normal running conditions.

If the evaporating pressure drops below the Low Pressure Hold limit, compressor is inhibited to increase its running capacity. This condition is indicated on the controller display in the circuit status as "Run: Evap Press Low". The status is automatically cleared when the evaporating pressure rise above the Low Pressure Hold limit by 14 kPa.

If the evaporating pressure drops below the Low Pressure Unid limit, compressor is unloaded in order to recover the normal operating conditions. This condition is indicated on the controller display in the circuit status as "Run: Evap Press Low". The status is automatically cleared when the evaporating pressure rise above the Low Pressure Hold limit by 14 kPa.

See section 5.6.18 to troubleshoot this problem.

4.2.5.3 High Condensing Pressure

When the circuit is running and the condensing pressure rises above the safety limits the circuit control logic reacts at two different levels in order to recover the normal running conditions.

The two different levels, called High Pressure Hold and High Pressure Unload limits, are calculated by the controller from the maximum condenser pressure allowed by the compressor envelope. This value depends from evaporating pressure as reported in the figure below.

If the condensing pressure rises above the High Pressure Hold limit, compressor is inhibited to increase its running capacity. This condition is indicated on the controller display in the circuit status as "Run: Cond Press High". The limit is calculated in terms of saturated condensing temperature; the status is automatically cleared when the saturated condensing temperature rises above the High Pressure Hold limit by 5.6 °C.

If the condensing pressure rises above the High Pressure Unload limit, compressor is unloaded in order to recover the normal operating conditions. This condition is indicated on the controller display in the circuit status as "Run: Cond Press High". The status is automatically cleared when the saturated condensing temperature rises above the High Pressure Hold limit by 5.6 °C. See section 5.6.17 to troubleshoot this problem.

DAIKIN EWYD6504ZXSA2 - High Condensing Pressure - 1

line | State | Temperature Range | | ----------------- | ------------------ | | Hi Press Trip | 0 to 1 | | Hi Press Hold | 0 to 1 | | Hi Press Unload | 0 to 1 |

4.2.5.4 High Vfd Current

When the compressor is running and its output current rises above the safety limits the circuit control logic reacts at two different levels in order to recover the normal running conditions. Safety limits are calculated by the controller based on the selected compressor type.

If the running current rises above the Running Current Hold limit (101% of RLA), compressor is inhibited to increase its running capacity. This condition is indicated on the controller display in the circuit status as "Run: High VFD Amps".

If the condensing pressure rises above the Running Current Unload limit (105% of RLA), compressor is unloaded in order to recover the normal operating conditions. This condition is indicated on the controller display in the circuit status as "Run: High VFD Amps". The status is automatically cleared when the running amps falls below the hold limit.

4.2.5.5 High Discharge Temperature

When the compressor is running and its discharge temperature rises above the safety limits the circuit control logic reacts at two different levels in order to recover the normal running conditions.

If the discharge temperature rises above the Discharge Temperature Hold limit (95 °C), compressor is inhibited to increase its running capacity. This condition is indicated on the controller display in the circuit status as "Run: High Discharge Temp".

If the discharge temperature rises above the Discharge Temperature Unload limit (100 °C), compressor is unloaded in order to recover the normal operating conditions. This condition is indicated on the controller display in the circuit status as "Run: High Discharge Temp". The status is automatically cleared when the discharge temperature falls below the hold limit.

5 TROUBLESHOOTING

The UC protects the unit and the components from operating in abnormal conditions. Protections can be divided in preventions and alarms. Alarms can then be divided in pump-down and rapid stop alarms. Pump-down alarms are activated when the system or sub-system can perform a normal shutdown in spite of the abnormal running conditions. Rapid stop alarms are activated when the abnormal running conditions require an immediate stop of the whole system or sub-system to prevent potential damages.

The UC displays the active alarms in a dedicated page and keep an history of the last 50 entries divided between alarms and acknowledges occurred. Time and date for each alarm event and of each alarm acknowledge are stored.

The UC also stores alarm snapshot of each alarm occurred. Each item contains a snapshot of the running conditions right before the alarm has occurred. Different sets of snapshots are programmed corresponding to unit alarms and circuit alarms holding different information to help the failure diagnosis.

In the following sections it will also be indicated how each alarm can be cleared between local HMI, Network (by any of the high level interfaces Modbus, Bacnet or Lon) or if the specific alarm will clear automatically. The following symbols are used:

There should be continuity from the main controller to the last inverter as indicated on the wiring diagram.
Modbus communication is not running properly.Check inverter addresses and addresses of all the additional devices in the RS485 network (for example the energy meter). All the addresses must be different.
Modbus interface card can be faultyCheck with your service organization to evaluate this possibility and eventually replace the board.

6 OPTIONS

6.1 Energy Meter including Current Limit (Optional)

An energy meter can be optionally installed on the unit. The energy meter is connected through Modbus to the unit controller, which can display all relevant electrical data such as:

• Line to Line Voltage (per phase and average)
• Line Current (per phase and average)
- Active Power
- Cos Phi
• Active Energy

. All these data can be also accessed from a BMS by connecting it to a communication module. See the communication module manual for details on the device and parameter settings.

Both the energy meter device and the unit controller need to be properly set. The instructions below detail how to set the energy meter. Refer to the specific instructions of the energy meter for more detail on the operation of the device.

Once the energy meter has been configured, do the following steps in the unit controller:

• From Main Menu, go to view/Set Unit → Commission Unit → Configuration → Unit
- Set Energy Mtr = Nemo D4-L o Nemo D4-Le

The energy meter option integrates the current limit function, which allows the unit to limit its capacity in order not to exceed a pre-defined current setpoint. This setpoint can be set in the unit display or can be changed from an external 4-20 mA signal.

The current limit must be set according to the following instructions:

• From Main Menu, go to View/Set Unit → Power Conservation

The following settings related to current limit option are available into the menu:

Unit CurrentDisplays the unit current
Current LimitDisplays the active current limit (which can be given by an external signal if unit is in network mode)
Current Lim SpSet the current limit setpoint (if unit is in local mode)
