the heat exchanger 

corresponds to the output of 

the compressor unit 

EX6-M21 / EX6-M31 

The capacity of the heat exchanger is determined under the following conditions: 

Cooling mode:  

air temperature in front of the exchanger 27 °C, outside air temperature 35 °C

 

 

 

condensing temperature 45 °C, subcooling 15 K, evaporating temperature 8 °C, superheating 3 K

 

 

 

length of refrigerant connecting pipe 7.5 m, elevation 0 m 

Heat pump mode:  

air temperature in front of the exchanger 20 °C, outside air temperature 7 °C

 

 

 

hot steam temperature 65 °C, condensing temperature 49 °C, subcooling 5 K 

 

 

 

length of refrigerant connecting pipe 7.5 m, elevation 0 m 

 
 

3.3 SYSTEM DESIGN 

 

 

The design of the compressor unit - HVAC unit 

 I&C system is absolutely essential for proper function. 

Although this manual does not address the overall design of the system, we recommend that you check, among 
other things, when commissioning a system with a communication module: 

1.

 

Size (volume) of applied heat exchanger in HVAC

 

2.

 

The amount of air passing through the heat exchanger in the HVAC 

3.

 

Speed of air flow through the heat exchanger in HVAC 

4.

 

The correct amount of refrigerant in the system with regard to the length of the piping and the size of 
the heat exchanger in the HVAC 

5.

 

Air temperature in front of the heat exchanger. Permitted operating air temperature ranges  - see the 

documentation  of  the  respective  compressor  unit  (usually  18  to  35  °C  in  "co

oling"  mode  and  10  to 

24 

°C in "heat pump" mode)

 

6.

 

Function of the I&C system - the request for cooling or heating must not be activated if a sufficient air 
flow through the heat exchanger in the HVAC is not ensured 

7.

 

Function  of  the  I&C  system  in  the  "DEFROST"  operating  mode  -  the  system  must  enable  reliable 
removal of icing from the outdoor unit and at the same time solve the low air temperature behind the 
heat exchanger in the HVAC  

 

The power request sent by the external I&C system is interpreted by the module as a temperature difference 
with respect to the required value. It is assumed that this requirement is in accordance with the real physical 
state  of  the  heat  exchanger  -  with  decreasing  power  demand,  the  ability  of  the  heat  exchanger  to  transfer 
power decreases (smaller temperature difference, smaller amount of air, etc.). 
The  communication  module  in  no  way  interferes  with  the  control  logic  of  the  external  condensing  unit. 
Algorithms  for  controlling  the  speed  of  the  invert  compressor,  condensing/evaporating  pressure,  etc.  are 
included in the software of the specific LG compressor unit.  
 
To  directly  limit  the 

power  of  the  compressor  unit,  the  “power  limit”  module

  (MOV-MV  accessory)  must  be 

installed. 
 
When using MOV-UU, the algorithm of the compressor unit for changing the evaporating pressure/temperature 

of approx. 14 to 6 °C (approx. 11 to 8 bar) is activated according to the setting of power code C1 to C7. In the 

heat pump mode, according to the setting of power code H1 to H7, the algorithm of the compressor unit for 

activating the condensing pressure/temperature of approx. 33 to 49 °C (approx. 19 to 29

 bar) is activated.
