*Current imbalance alarm x.25 may be changed to warning x.27 after suc-
cessful start-up of the chiller.
†Compressors are equipped with 2 motor winding temperature thermistors.
Verify first that the problem is not a wiring error before using backup
thermistor.
**Reset automatic first time, manual if repeated on the same date.
††Note that the high-pressure switch should trip before this alert is generated.
Check HPS operation if this alert is generated.

NOTES:
1. Low Oil Pressure Alert Criteria and Set Points
Where: P
= Discharge Pressure, P
d
P
= Oil pressure and P
= Economizer pressure
o
e
Two oil pressure set points are used. Oil Set point 1 is always 15 psig.
a. If (P
P
) < 125, then Oil Set point 2 = 0.235 x (P
d -
s
b. If (P
P
) >= 125 and < 165, then Oil Set point 2 = 2.0 x (P
d -
s
c. If (P
P
) >= 165, then Oil Set point 2 = 0.6364 x (P
d -
s
The 2 set points are used by the control for the Low Oil Pressure alert trip
criteria below:
a. Oil Pressure is ignored during the first 5 seconds after a compressor is
started.
b. In period between 5 and 120 seconds after starting, the alert will be gen-
erated if (P
- P
) < [(Oil Set point 1)/120] x (Compressor Run time in sec-
o
e
onds) for 3 consecutive readings
c. After 120 seconds of run time, the alert will be generated if:
1)(P
- P
) < Oil Set point 1 for 15 seconds OR
o
e
2)(P
- P
) < Oil Set point 2 for 25 seconds
o
s
2. (P
- P
) is the Oil pressure differential displayed in
o
e
and in
for Circuit B.
