ENGINEERING MANUAL OF AUTOMATIC CONTROL
CHILLER, BOILER, AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM CONTROL APPLICATIONS

Fig. 30. Cooling Tower Load Control Dynamic Display.
Features
1. Precise PI condenser water control above minimum load.
2. User friendly monitoring and adjustment.
3. Optimized condenser water temperature.
4. Freeze prevention cycle.
5. Fan motor light-load over-heating protection.
Conditions For Successful Operation
1. Control network, software, and programming to advise
tower controller of chiller demands.
2. Interlock and control wiring coordinated with the chiller
manufacturer.
3. Good OA RH sensor and WB calculation.
4. Proper project-specific setpoint and parameter settings.
5. If tower must operate with OA temperature below
freezing, the diverting valve must be controlled two
position, during freezing conditions.
Specification
Cooling tower controls shall be enabled anytime the
condenser water pump runs. The cooling tower fan speed shall
be modulated under EPID control down to a minimum 25%
speed to maintain a condenser water temperature setpoint equal
to the OA WB temperature plus 3.5 kelvins, or a value equal to
the minimum temperature acceptable to the chiller plus 1 kelvin,
whichever is higher, but not to exceed 29.5
°
C. If the tower
capacity is still excessive at minimum speed, control shall revert
to an on-off algorithm, cycling the fan off at the minimum speed
at a setpoint equal to the above setpoint, and back on at the
minimum speed at a temperature equal to the off temperature
plus 3 kelvins, with on cycles of no less than 7 minutes duration.
If, after cycling the fan on for 3 minutes, the temperature rises
above the “back on” setpoint by 1 kelvin, the EPID function
shall be reinstated with a start value of 25% and a ramp duration
of 90 seconds.
The tower diverting valve shall modulate to divert tower water
to the sump if required to prevent the condenser water
temperature from dropping below the minimum temperature
acceptable to the chiller. When the OA temperature drops below
freezing, the valve shall switch to two-position control, wherein
the valve shall open to the sump when the water temperature
drops to the setpoint and close when the temperature rises a
differential which shall vary from 2.5 to 6 kelvins as the OA
temperature varies from 0 to –18
°
C.
LOW LOAD CONDENSER WATER TEMPERATURE CONTROL:
TOWER FAN STOPS, VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL IS DISABLED, AND ON-OFF FAN
CONTROL IS ENABLED IF LOAD DROPS AFTER FAN DROPS TO SPEED.
ON-OFF CONTROL: FAN RESTARTS IF TEMPERATURE RISES TO SETPOINT PLUS
DEGREES. FAN STOPS IF TEMPERATURE DROPS TO SETPOINT, BUT RUNS A MINIMUM OF
MINUTES. DURING ON PERIODS OF ON-OFF CONTROL, THE FAN RUNS AT
MINIMUM SPEED.
VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL RECOVERY: IF, AFTER CYCLING FAN ON FOR 3 MINUTES, THE
TEMPERATURE RISES KELVINS ABOVE THE "RESTART" TEMPERATURE
THE FAN RESUMES VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL.
VALVE CONTROL: VALVE MODULATES WATER TO SUMP AS NECESSARY TO MAINTAIN
VALVE CONTROL SETPOINT DEGREES.
FREEZING CONTROL: IF OA IS BELOW FREEZING, VALVE SHALL SWITCH TO TWO
POSITION CONTROL. VALVE SHALL OPEN TO SUMP AT VALVE CONTROL SETPOINT,
AND SHALL REVERT BACK TO TOWER WHEN TEMPERATURE RISES TO SETPOINT
PLUS DIFFERENTIAL. DIFFERENTIAL SHALL VARY FROM TO KELVINS
AS OA VARIES FROM TO DEGREES.
