ECONOMIZER WITH POWER EXHAUST -
A unit equipped with an economizer (single or dual enthalpy)
and a power exhaust operates as specified above with one
addition. The power exhaust motor is energized 45 seconds
after the actuator position exceeds the exhaust fan set point
on the economizer control. When the power exhaust is oper-
ating, the second stage of mechanical cooling will not oper-
ate. As always, the "R" to "G" connection provides minimum
position but does not provide power exhaust operation.
MOTORIZED OUTDOOR AIR DAMPERS -
This system operation is the same as the units with no out-
door air options with one exception. When the "R" to "G" cir-
cuit is complete, the motorized damper drives open to a
position set by the thumbwheel on the damper motor. When
the "R" to "G" circuit is opened, the damper spring returns
fully closed.
COOLING OPERATION ERRORS
Each cooling system is monitored for operation outside of the
intended parameters. Errors are handled as described below.
All system errors override minimum run times for compressors.
HIGH-PRESSURE LIMIT SWITCH
During cooling operation, if a high-pressure limit switch
opens, the UCB will de-energize the associated compressor,
initiate the ASCD (Anti-short cycle delay), and, if the other
compressor is idle, stop the condenser fans. If the call for
cooling is still present at the conclusion of the ASCD, the
UCB will re-energize the halted compressor.
Should a high-pressure switch open three times within two
hours of operation, the UCB will lock-out the associated com-
pressor and flash a code (see Table 52). If the other com-
pressor is inactive, the condenser fans will be de-energized.
LOW-PRESSURE LIMIT SWITCH
The low-pressure limit switch is not monitored during the ini-
tial 30 seconds of a cooling system's operation. For the fol-
lowing 30 seconds, the UCB will monitor the low-pressure
switch to ensure it closes. If the low-pressure switch fails to
close after the 30-second monitoring phase, the UCB will de-
energize the associated compressor, initiate the ASCD, and,
if the other compressor is idle, stop the condenser fans.
Once the low-pressure switch has been proven (closed dur-
ing the 30-second monitor period described above), the UCB
will monitor the low-pressure limit switch for any openings. If
the low-pressure switch opens for greater than 5 seconds,
the UCB will de-energize the associated compressor, initiate
the ASCD, and, if the other compressor is idle, stop the con-
denser fans.
If the call for cooling is still present at the conclusion of the
ASCD, the UCB will re-energize the halted compressor.
Should a low-pressure switch open three times within one
hour of operation, the UCB will lock-out the associated com-
pressor and flash a code (Table 52). If the other compressor
is inactive, the condenser fans will be de-energized.
FREEZESTAT
During cooling operation, if a freezestat opens, the UCB will
de-energize the associated compressor, initiate the ASCD,
and, if the other compressor is idle, stop the condenser fans.
If the call for cooling is still present at the conclusion of the
ASCD, the UCB will re-energize the halted compressor.
Should a freezestat open three times within two hours of
operation, the UCB will lock-out the associated compressor
and flash a code (Table 52). If the other compressor is inac-
tive, the condenser fans will be de-energized.
LOW AMBIENT COOLING
To determine when to operate in low ambient mode, the UCB
has a pair of terminals connected to a temperature-activated
switch set at 45ºF. When the low ambient switch is closed
and the thermostat is calling for cooling, the UCB will operate
in the low ambient mode.
Low ambient mode operates the compressors in this manner:
10 minutes on, 5 minutes off. The indoor blower is operated
throughout the cycle. The 5-minute off period is necessary to
defrost the indoor coil.
Low ambient mode always begins with compressor opera-
tion. Compressor minimum run time may extend the minutes
of compressor operation. The defrost cycle will begin immedi-
ately following the elapse of the minimum run time.
When operating in low ambient mode, the UCB will not lock-
out the compressors due to a freezestat trip. However, a
freezestat trip will de-energize the associated compressor. If
the call for cooling is still present at the end of the ASCD and
the freezestat has closed, the unit will resume operation.
SAFETY CONTROLS
The unit control board monitors the following inputs for each
cooling system:
1.
A suction line freezestat to protect against low evapora-
tor temperatures due to a low airflow or a low return air
temperature, (opens at 26 ± 5 °F and resets at 38 ± 5°F).
2.
A high-pressure switch to protect against excessive dis-
charge pressures due to a blocked condenser coil or a
condenser motor failure, (opens at 405 ± 10 psig or 440
± 10 psig depending on unit model).
3.
A low-pressure switch to protect against loss of refriger-
ant charge, (opens at 22 ± 5 psig or 45 ± 5 psig).
The above pressure switches are hard-soldered to the unit.
The refrigeration systems are independently monitored and
controlled. On any fault, only the associated system will be
