3.6.10 Extended Cascade Controller, MCO 101, and Advanced Cascade Controller, MCO 102
Cascade control is a common control system used to control parallel pumps or fans in an energy-efficient way.
The Cascade Controller option provides the capability to control multiple pumps configured in parallel in a way that makes them appear as a single larger
pump.
When using cascade controllers, the individual pumps are automatically turned on (staged) and turned off (de-staged) as needed in order to satisfy the
required system output for flow or pressure. The speed of the pumps connected to VLT AQUA Drives is also controlled to provide a continuous range of
system output.

Cascade controllers are optional hardware and software components that can be added to the VLT AQUA Drive. It consists of an option board containing
three relays that are installed in option slot B on the drive. Once options are installed, the parameters needed to support the cascade controller functions
will be available through the control panel in the 27-** parameter group. The Extended Cascade Controller offers more functionality than the Basic
Cascade Controller. It can be used to extend the basic cascade with three relays and even up to eight relays with the Advanced Cascade Control card
installed.
While the cascade controller is designed for pumping applications and this document describes the cascade controller for this application, it is also possible
to use cascade controllers for any application requiring multiple motors configured in parallel.
3.6.11 General Description
The cascade controller software runs from a single VLT AQUA Drive with the Cascade Controller option card installed. This adjustable frequency drive is
referred to as the master drive. It controls a set of pumps each controlled by an adjustable frequency drive or connected directly to line power through
a contactor or through a soft starter.
Each additional adjustable frequency drive in the system is referred to as a Follower Drive. These adjustable frequency drives do not need the cascade
controller option card installed. They are operated in open-loop mode and receive their speed reference from the master drive. The pumps connected to
these adjustable frequency drives are referred to as Variable Speed Pumps.
Each additional pump connected to line power through a contactor or through a soft starter is referred to as a Fixed Speed Pump.
