COMPRESSORS CONFIGURATION
According to the oA1, oA2, oA3, oA4, oA5, oA6 configuration, 2 kinds of plant can be defined:
Rack with compressors only: all the oAi different from FAn
Rack with compressors and fans: both FAn and CPr are used for oAi.
If compressor with different capacities are used (CtyP=dPo), all the oAi must to be configured as
cPr (compressor) otherwise the configuration alarm “CStP” will be activated.
If an oAi is set as step without any previous oAi set as cPr the configuration alarm “CStP”
will be activated.
CtyP Compressor type: it sets if compressors have the same power (homogeneous) or not.
SPo = compressors with same capacity
dPo = compressor with different capacities.
Scr = screw compressors.
StP Valve outputs (unloader) polarity: polarity of the outputs for capacity valves. It
determines the status of the relays associated with the capacity valves (only for
homogeneous and stepped-capacity compressors)
oP=valve activated with open contacts of the relay;
cL= valve activated with close contacts of the relay.
PC1..PC6 Capacity of compressor 1...6: for setting the capacity of single compressors. It’s
used only if CtyP=dPo.
Insert in each parameter the capacity of the compressor used.
E.I. 3 compressors with following capacity: 10, 20, 40 HP. The parameters have to be set
in this way: PC1=10, PC2=20, PC3=40.
FtyP: Refrigerant type: set the kind of gas refrigerant used in the plant:
NOTE: The controller automatically converts values of set points and parameters referred to the
pressure/temperature when the dEU parameter is changed. In any case check the value of the
parameters referred to temperature and pressure after changing dEU.

In the following a simplify example that explains the regulation in neutral zone for compressor
homogeneous with 1 step for each compressors. The safety times onon, oFon and donF are not
considered. In the real regulation any load is entered or turned off only if these times are over.
Ex. Dead band control, compressors with same capacities, 1 step for each compressor.
In this example:
oA1 = cPr1; oA2 = cPr1; oA3 = cPr1; oA4 =nu; oA5 = nu number of compressors
CtyP = SPo homogeneous compressors;
Sty = yES rotation

The regulation algorithm supply a combination of the available capacities, starting from the
lower ones and increasing step by step according to the requests coming from the system.
With uneven capacity compressors, the algorithm doesn’t distribute the working time between
the various compressors to ensure even run times.
The transition between the various steps can be carried out only if the safety timers (onon, oFon, donF)
have been expired, otherwise the first available step is used.
The activation of the valve is designed according to the Bitzer, Hanbell compressors.
Set the relay oA1 = CPr1, it will manage the compressor.

Set the oA2, oA3 and oA4 as “StP”.
The numbers of fans switched ON is proportional to the value of the input signal: when this
distances itself from the target set point and enters the various bands, the fans are switched ON,
to be then turned OFF when the signal brings near the set point.
In this way if the pressure is greater than regulation band, all the fans are on, if the pressure
(temperature) is lower than the regulation band all the fans are off.
Naturally also for this regulations all the delays (Fon and FoF) are valid.

This configuration is used when all fans of the condensing group are ECI fans or driven by one
inverter or a chopped phase driver.

22.1.3 Example
EI: Rack with 2 compressors, with compressor safeties and running proof circuit for each
compressor:
Compressor 1 on relay 1: oA1 = CPr1
Compressor 2 on relay 2: oA2 = CPr1
Safety for compressor 1 on digital input 1: iF01 = oA1
Safety for compressor 2 on digital input 2: iF02 = oA2
Running proof circuit for compressor 1 on digital input 3: iF03 = Co1
Running proof circuit for compressor 2 on digital input 4: iF04 = Co2
2 seconds delay before signalling alarm and stopping the compressor 1: d1d = 2
2 seconds delay before signalling alarm and stopping the compressor 2: d2d = 2
When the compressor 1 (or 2) starts, if by 2sec the digital input 3 (or 4) is not activated (running
proof function) the FC01 alarm is signalled and the compressor is stopped.
Alarm recover as soon as the safety timers of the compressor (onon, ofon) are over and
compressor come back available for regulation.
After 5 consecutive alarms, the alarms move from automatic restart to manual restart and it must
be reset by Keyboard, of by switching off and on the controller.
To enable this function set one relay by the parameters oA2 or oA3 or oA4 or oA5 or oA6, as
flood protection, EI oA4 = Liq, and then connect it to the external device that blocks the cabinet
injection.
NOTE: the relay set as flood protection is automatically activated even when the controller is in
stand-by mode.
NOTE
If the compressors are activated in fix sequence, (Sty = no), and the compressor that has to be
activated is locked by safety timers, the relay set as flood protection is switched on till the safety
timers are over.
Controller can monitor the suction superheat, and signal situations of low superheat, with a pre-
alarm and alarm thresholds.
According to the settings, compressors can be stopped in case of low superheat alarm, to
preserve compressor integrity.
The alarm messages and the regulation are described in the following table
22.4.1 Parameters
A relay must be set as hot gas valve: oA2 or oA3 or oA4 or oA5 or oA6= HGi, and
an auxiliary probe among P3 (term. 3-4) or P4 (term. 33-34) has to be set as superheat
temperature probe ASH9 = P3 or P4.
Then the following parameters:
ASH7 Superheat value to enable hot gas injecting valve (0.1 to 15.0°C/ 1 to 30°F)
ASH8 Differential for ASH7 (0.1 to 30.0°C/ 1 to 60°F)
22.4.2 Regulation:
The regulation respects the following schema:
Dove SH = valore di SH
When these parameters are set in wrong way an alarm message is generated:
the label A12 is shown on the upper display, while the lower display the following messages are
shown:
Actions
Electronic low pressure: every time the suction temperature/pressure is less than ELP value all
the compressors are switched off. The instrument restarts the standard operating mode when
pressure/ temperature increases.
Parameters
iP05: Low pressure switch polarity: It establishes if the input is activated by giving (iP05=cL)
or by removing (iP05=oP) main voltage to the terminals.
iP06: High pressure switch polarity: It establishes if the input is by giving (iP06=cL) or by
removing (iP06=oP) main voltage to the terminals.
Actions
Low pressure: every time the inputs are activated all the compressors are switched off. The
instrument restart the standard operating mode when the input is disabled. If there are PEn
activation in the PEi time, only manual resetting is allowed, by pressing the DOWN key for 3s or
by turning off and on the instrument.
High pressure: every time the inputs are activated all the compressors are switched off and fans
are switched on. The instrument restart the standard operating mode when the input is disabled.
If there are PnF activation in the PiF time, only manual resetting is allowed, by pressing the DOWN
key for 3s or by turning off and on the instrument.
Parameters
iP07: Low pressure switch 2 polarity: It establishes if the input is activated by giving (iP07=cL)
or by removing (iP07=oP) main voltage to the terminals.
