The change-over between the cooling and free-cooling modes is
automatically controlled (it is possible to block the change-over to
free-cooling by reconfiguring the machine - see Controls IOM). The
configurable parameters permitting change-over are the outside air
temperature and the leaving water temperature set-point. As soon as
the temperature difference LWT
stp
- OAT is above 8 K the current
capacity in cooling mode is calculated and compared with the theo-
retical free-cooling capacity. This comparison authorizes/stops the
change-over to free-cooling.
After change-over to free-cooling all compressors are stopped, the
two (or four) two-way valves change to the free-cooling position (the
compressor functions are bypassed). As soon as the valves open, the
free-cooling pump is started. This change-over logic takes around 4
minutes. Taking this timing into consideration two cooling - free-cooling
change-overs are authorized per hour.
If the capacity supplied in the free-cooling mode is insufficient
(set-point not reached), the unit automatically changes over to
cooling mode.
To optimize operation in free-cooling mode we strongly recommend
to use the set-point offset function. This favours the change-over
to free-cooling and increases the capacity in free-cooling mode.
