be ignored. When free cooling is in progress, chiller is not able
to start up.
Condenser Flush
Stagnant untreated water can result in corrosion. This option,
which typically is used for shipboard units, can flush the con-
denser to help mitigate this issue.
If
Option Configuration
Condenser Flush Alert
is enabled,
when condenser pump has been not running for 7 days, alert
166 will be triggered to remind user to flush condenser. Acti-
vate condenser flush by enabling
General Parameters
Start
Condenser Flush
. Alert 166 will be reset automatically after
condenser flush is activated.
Condenser Flush will last for 2 hours and then end automatical-
ly. During Condenser Flush, the chiller will take these actions:
• Switch on the condenser water pump
• Open head pressure valve to maximum opening position
• Display Condenser Flush mode on the homepage.
Condenser Flush mode will only be activated when chiller is not
running. If the chiller is running, Condenser Flush start request
will be ignored. When free cooling is in progress, if chiller is
commanded to start during condenser flush it will automatically
end and chiller will start up normally.
DIAGNOSTICS AND TROUBLESHOOTING
The 19DV PIC6 control system has many fault tracing aid
functions. The local interface and its various menus give ac-
cess to all unit operating conditions.
If an operating fault is detected, an alarm is activated. The
alarm code is displayed in the Alarms menu, sub-menus Reset
alarms and Current alarms. The control may record up to 10
current alarms and alerts.
Alarm/Alert Codes
Table 15 lists PIC6 alert codes. Table 16 lists PIC6 alarm
codes. These do not cause machine shutdown and are typically
automatically reset when the situation returns to normal.
Displaying Alarms
The alarm icon
on the interface (see the section Icons on
page 12) indicates unit status as follows:
• A flashing red LED shows that the unit is operating but
there is an alert.
• A steady red LED shows that the unit has been shut down
due to a fault.
The Reset Alarms option on the main menu displays up to five
alarm codes that are active on the unit. Table 16 lists alarm
codes.
Resetting Alarms
When the cause of the alarm has been identified and corrected,
the alarm can be reset either automatically or manually (de-
pending on the type of alarm). See Table 16 for alarms that are
eligible for automatic reset.
In the event of a power supply interrupt, if Auto Restart Option
is set to ENABLE in the Option Configuration menu, the unit re-
starts automatically without the need for an external command.
A manual reset must be run from the main menu via the Reset
Alarms Feature.
Once the alarm has been corrected or reset, all information re-
garding solved alarms is stored in the Alarm History. Alarm
History will store last 50 alarms even after alarms have been
corrected or reset.
