6.12.2 Trending & Data Acquisition

The “Trending & Data Acquisition” window allows the
user to view and compare the trends of:

• Multiple temperature readings on one graph;

• Multiple energy demand and usage parameters on

one graph

• Multiple compressor speed parameters on one graph

To view the “Trending & Data Acquisition” window, as
shown in Figure 41, click on the down arrow next to the
“Trending” icon, and select “Charts 2”.

For the “Temperatures” graph, the trends of the following
parameters may be viewed simultaneously:

• Suction Temperature

• Discharge Temperature

• Liquid Temperature

• Entering Air/Water Temperature

• Leaving Air/Water Temperature

• Evaporating Temperature

• Condensing Temperature

For the “Energy Demand & Usage” graph, the trends of the
following parameters may be viewed simultaneously:

• Actual (Mains) Power Input [kW]

• Requested (Motor) Power Input [kW]

• Compressor Demand %

• Inlet Guide Vane Opening %

For the “Compressor Speeds” graph, the trends of the
following parameters may be viewed simultaneously:

• Actual Compressor Speed [RPM]

• Minimum Compressor Speed [RPM]

(estimated surge)

• Maximum Compressor Speed [RPM]

(choke)
