First step runtime

At start-up, the cooling system must have time to cool down before PI regulation takes over 

the regulation role and can cut in the next compressor.

Set the time before the next compressor may be started here.

Min: 0 s

Max: 300 s

Fac: 120 s

Pump down

Pump-down function

To avoid too many compressor starts/stops at a low load, it is possible to define a pump-

down function for the last compressor. In this case, the compressor will be cut out when the 

current suction pressure is down at the set “Pump-down limit Po”.

(The setting must be greater than the safety limit for low suction pressure “PoA Min Limit”.)

Yes /No

Fac: No

Min: -80°C (-1.0 bar)

Max: 30°C (50.0 bar)

Facb: -40°C (0.3 bar)

Load shed  limit

Capacity limitation at “low shed signal”

Set how much compressor capacity can be cut in when a signal is received from either a DI 

input or a system device via data communication. 

The value must not be set lower than the compressors’ lowest capacity step/”Start speed”.

Min: 0 %

Max: 100%

Fac: 100%

Emergency cap. day 

Emergency capacity in the event of a malfunction of the regulation sensor (suction pressure 

sensor)

Set the desired capacity that will apply during daytime operation.

(If the S4 media temperature sensor becomes damaged/defective, use Po for regulation.)

Min: 0 %

Max: 100%

Fac: 50%

Emergency cap. night Emergency capacity in the event of a malfunction of the regulation sensor (suction pressure 

sensor)

Set the desired capacity that will apply during night operation.

(If the S4 media temperature sensor becomes damaged/defective, use Po for regulation.)

Min: 0 %

Max: 100%

Fac: 25%

Comp. start delay

Delay of compressor start after forced closing of expansion valves (at the end of a forced 

close signal)

The delay will result in the system device receiving a start signal for all the evaporator con-

trols involved before the first compressor is started. 

Min: 0 s

Max: 180 s

Fac: 30 s

Injection OFF delay

Delay of the forced closing of expansion valves, if the controller calls for cut in of compres-

sors, but the compressors are in a locked situation and therefore cannot start.

Min: 0 s

Max: 300 s

Fac: 120 s

Lead comp. size

Set the nominal compressor capacity for the first compressor (it is defined under  

“Compressor mode”)

That is, the capacity of either a “Digital scroll”, “Stream”, “Variable speed” or  

“First compressor with unloaders”

Min: 1 kW

Max: 100 kW

Fac: 1 kW

Comp. size

Set the nominal compressor capacity of the other compressors

For single-step only:  All are of the same size, including the first.
