HPU2

The HPU2 heat pump controller is a stand-alone microprocessor-based controller for liquid source heat pump units. 
The application includes liquid source heat pump units with two-stage compressor, reversing valve and fan. 

Overview

A digital input is provided to monitor equipment status. A two-wire serial interface is provided for the thermostat. The 
HPU2 incorporates digital outputs in the form of triacs for fan start/stop, two compressor stages, and a reversing valve.

The controller is based on L

ORKS

®

 networking technology. The controller can be networked to a higher-level control 

system for monitoring and control applications.

Features

• Two stage compressor heating/cooling control
• Reversing valve control
• Local backup schedule 
• Individual temperature setpoints for occupied/unoccupied heat and cool
• L

• Equipment status input for additional safety interlocks
• Thermostat with space temperature, setpoint adjust, fan override, occupancy override
• Fan control energized on call for heating or cooling
• Automatic heat/cool changeover
• Global unit enable for main plant synchronization
• Remote sensor capabilities
• Automatic configuration with the LCI
• Real Time Clock
• Alarm/Event reporting
