Mode II
Mode II is used mainly for systems containing multiple chiller units, or those with variable flow. To avoid alteration of the
water temperature of the rest of chiller units in operation, the pump is operated with a low water temperature.

a.
When outdoor temperature is under 2ºC
When outdoor temperature falls under 2ºC, the operation order of the pump is output, and the continuous operation
of the cold water circulation pump starts automatically. Here, when cold water temperature becomes higher than
5ºC, operation becomes intermittent, with the pump running for 5 minutes, then stopped during 55 minutes.
When cold water temperature rises even further, above 7ºC, the pump operation order output is set to OFF.
b.
Automatic release of anti-freezing operation
This operation is released when outdoor temperature becomes higher than 4ºC.

When the outdoor temperature of the cold water circulation system is lower than that of the installation place of the
chiller unit itself, then it is necessary to install a separate outdoor temperature thermostat in the place with the lowest
temperature, and connect it in parallel with the operation order circuit of the pump.
