Condensate Overflow Protection
– A liquid sensor at
the top of the drain pan senses a high water level . Upon
sensing water, cooling operation is suspended, while
heating operation is allowed . The controller creates an
alarm available in software . The alarm automatically
resets when the water level returns to normal .
●
Safety Control
– The unit monitors refrigerant pressure
and generates separate high-pressure and low-pres-
sure alarms available in software . While either alarm is
active, compressor operation is suspended . In a refriger-
ant low-temperature condition, an alarm occurs and the
unit operates in cooling mode for 60 seconds to defrost
the heat exchanger, after which compressor operation is
suspended . These alarms can be reset in software or by
cycling power to the controller .
●
Attained Temperature and Water Temperature Alarms
– Attained temperature, water temperature alarms with
software-adjustable setpoints are available in software .
The controller samples supply air and records attained
temperatures for heating and cooling . If after two hours
of operation, the attained temperature does not meet the
software-configurable setpoint for heating or cooling as
appropriate, a software alarm occurs . The alarm auto-
matically resets when the attained temperature is within
temperature is within setpoints . The controller also
monitors leaving water temperature . If the leaving water
temperature is outside software-configurable setpoints,
compressor operation is suspended and high or low
water temperature alarms occur . The alarm automatically
resets when the water temperature returns to within 6
deg . F of the setpoint .
●
Unit Self-test Mode
– While the unit is in occupied
mode, a self-test can be initiated via software . Upon
initiation of the test, compressor operation is suspended
for a minimum of five minutes, cooling attained tem-
peratures are cleared, and attained temperature alarms
are cleared . The unit then switches to full heat for four
minutes and then records the attained supply air tem-
perature . Compressor operation is then suspended for
five minutes . The unit then switches to full cooling for
four minutes and the attained supply air temperature
is recorded . Attained temperature alarms are set if the
attained temperatures failed to reach alarm setpoints
during heating or cooling .
