DESCRIPTION
YYYYYYY HPCO
Hardware-Initiated Fault -
The mechanical High Pressure Cutout (HPCO) protects the system
from experiencing dangerously high discharge pressure. A system will fault and shut down
immediately when the mechanical high pressure cutout contacts open. The fault will occur
immediately and not wait three seconds. The HPCO is wired in series with the VSD run signal
and will only be checked by the control board when the system is running.

YYYYYYY will show FAULT to indicate a system is in a FAULT condition, and will restart when
the 120 second anti-recycle timer times out; or will show LOCKOUT, and the system will not
restart until the operator clears the fault using the keypad.
YYYYYYY LOW DIFF
OIL PRESSURE
This fault protects the compressor from low oil flow causing insufficient lubrication. A system
will fault and shut down with a ramped shutdown when its differential between oil and suction
pressure falls below the fault. The safety is ignored for the first 60 seconds of run time. If restart
transition has occurred, the timer is set according to
with a maximum limit
of 73 seconds. The timer calculation allows for 60 seconds of run time after the time it takes to
ramp the running compressor from its existing speed to shutdown speed.
TABLE 34 -
TIMER SETTINGS
CURRENT
FREQUENCY
INCREASE TIMER BY:
>100 Hz
60 s + (100 Hz - 5 Hz)/30.4 Hz/s + 9.5 s
< or = 100 Hz
60 s + (Current freq - 5 Hz)/10 Hz/s
NOTE:
9.5 s = (100 Hz-5 Hz/10 Hz s), the time it takes to ramp from 100 Hz to 5 Hz.
After the timer expires, the fault is linearly ramped from 0 psid (0 kPa) to the programmable
threshold (20 psid to 60 psid, default 25 psid (137 kPa to 413 kPa, default 172 kPa) in 10
minutes. If the VSD frequency is less than 50 Hz when the differential pressure falls below
the limit, the three second start-up bypass time will be increased to 30 seconds. Under these
conditions, the slow speed of the running compressor causes the oil differential to become very
low, especially if the water temperature and the suction pressure are high. The bypass make
sure the compressor will not trip on a nuisance low oil differential fault. This auto-restart safety
will lock out on the third fault in 90 minutes. YYYYYYY will show FAULT to indicate a system is in
a FAULT condition, and will restart when the 120 second anti-recycle timer times out; or will show
LOCKOUT, and the system will not restart until the operator clears the fault using the keypad.
YYYYYYY LOW
DISCHARGE
SUPERHEAT
This fault protects against excessive liquid refrigerant carryover from the evaporator, in cases
which may be a result of overcharge of refrigerant or another refrigerant inventory problem. It
also protects the compressor from liquid refrigerant flooding back from the economizer feed line,
in cases where the economizer valve fails to close. This safety is ignored for the first 10 minutes
of system run time. If the discharge superheat falls below 5.0°F (2.8°C) for ten minutes, the
system will shutdown. This fault causes a lockout on the third fault in 90 minutes. YYYYYYY will
show FAULT to indicate a FAULT condition, and will restart when the 120 second anti-recycle
timer times out; or will show LOCKOUT, and the system will not restart until the operator clears
the fault using the keypad.
