R:
Allow
Disallow/Allow
Delays
Wait __:__ (mm:ss) after chiller plant is enabled before checking part load
conditions and further enabling optimization.
Present output is True for 0:00 (mm:ss)
— Displays status.
D:
R:
00:10 (mm:ss)
0:00 to 10:00 (mm:ss)
5. AND are Part Load Conditions met? —
Set the part load conditions to fit your chiller
plant. The program defaults to run when the chiller plant is operating above 20%.
If the reset is applied at very low load conditions, the plant may cycle off more
frequently when on low load or low delta temperature. The program starts to cool down
to lowest chilled water supply temperature when the load is below the low threshold. —
Displays YES or NO status.
R:
YES/NO
_.___%
Current load/capacity
— Displays value.
R:
0 to 100%
Allow Optimizer Reset if Load is < __% of capacity
D:
R:
90%
60 to 90%
hysteresis of __%
D:
R:
5%
5 to 10%
6. AND is the Chilled Water Temperature Difference (return-supply) across the chiller
evaporator great enough? —
Set a minimum allowed temperature across the
evaporator so the temperature difference will not drop too low. This prevents the chiller
from cycling off on low load too often and helps to stabilize chiller operation. The
optimization program will not start until the temperature drop across the evaporator is
large enough. — Displays YES or NO status.
Chilled Water Temperature Difference
— Displays delta temperature in degrees
Allow if (Chilled Water Return Temperature - Chilled Water Supply Temperature) is
> __ degrees
D:
R:
5°F
3 to 10°F
with hysteresis of __ degrees
D:
R:
3°F
1 to 5°F
Delays
1. Wait __ : __ (mm:ss) before disabling algorithm after plant goes out of part load
conditions.
Present output is:
True/False for 0:00 (mm:ss) — Displays status.
D:
R:
5:00 (mm:ss)
0:00 to 10:00 (mm:ss)
2. Wait __ : __ (mm:ss) after part load conditions are enabled before starting
optimization.
Present output is : True/False for 0:00 (mm:ss) — Displays status.
D:
R:
5:00 (mm:ss)
0:00 to 10:00 (mm:ss)
