General safety guidelines Important: Read before proceeding. This equipment is a relatively complicated apparatus. During rigging, installation, operation, maintenance, or service, individuals may be exposed to certain components or conditions including, but not limited to: heavy objects, refrigerants, materials under pressure, rotating components, and both high and low voltage.
WARNING External wiring, unless specified as an optional connection in the manufacturer’s product line, is not to be connected inside the control cabinet. Devices such as relays, switches, transducers and controls and any external wiring must not be installed inside the micro panel. All wiring must be in accordance with Johnson Controls’...
Traditional chiller maintenance is based upon assumed and generalized conditions. In lieu of the traditional maintenance program, a Johnson Controls YORK Conditioned Based Maintenance (CBM) program can be substituted. This CBM service plan is built around the specific needs for the chiller, operating conditions, and annualized impact realized by the chiller.

General information This instruction is to be used in conjunction with the Operation Instructions for YORK Centrifugal chillers furnished with an optional YORK OptiSpeed™ Compressor Drive (OSCD). ® OptiSpeed/Harmonic filter component overview OptiSpeed compressor drive 270, 292, 351, and 424 hp (low horsepower...

mounted on the side of the Power Unit to provide a discharge path for the stored energy in the capacitors. The DC to AC inverter section of the OSCD serves to convert the DC voltage to AC voltage at the proper magnitude and frequency as commanded by the OSCD Logic board.
The three-phase inductor provides some impedance for the filter to “work against”. It effectively limits the rate of change in current at the input to the filter to a reason- able level. The Filter Power Unit is the most complicated power component in the optional filter. Its purpose is to generate the harmonic currents required by the OSCD’s AC-to-DC converter so that these harmonic currents are not drawn from the AC line.

The OSCD control system is composed of various components located within both the Control Center and the OSCD. In this way, the Control Center integrates with the OSCD. The OSCD system uses various microprocessors, which are linked together through a network of communications links.
OSCD related information is contained under the Motor and Compressor Screens. VSD adaptive capacity control The YORK OSCD uses a different approach to speed reduction compared to earlier variable speed products. There is no longer a pre-programmed surge map – the YORK adaptive system ®...

stores the conditions surrounding the surge into memory, so that it can avoid the stored operating point anytime in the future. Early versions of the ACC software required that the drive always start and run up to full speed. ACC software starting with version C.ACC.01.04 applies anew slow ramp up of the drive speed.

Stability limit adjustment Stability Limit Adjustment allows the system to properly function with larger amounts of temperature instability. Consult YORK Service to make this adjustment. Surge margin adjustment Surge Margin Adjustment allows the Service Technician to increase the speed of the drive for all mapped surge points.

Safety shutdowns General information The Shutdowns are organized in alphabetical order based on the OptiView™ Control Center messages. The Microcomputer Control Center messages are also included under these headings. Whenever a Safety Shutdown is generated by the OSCD or Harmonic Filter Logic Board, a series of events occurs.
Safety shutdown messages Table 3: Safety shutdowns Message Description The OSCD logic board generates this shutdown. This shutdown will become active Motor or Starter – Current Imbalance when the highest of the three motor currents exceeds 80% of the programmed MOTOR OR STARTER –...
Page 36
Table 3: Safety shutdowns Message Description If the OSCD fails to meet the precharge criteria (refer to precharge faults), the precharge circuit waits for a period of 10 seconds before another precharge VSD - Precharge Lockout attempt. The unit’s cooling fans and coolant pump remain energized during this time period.
Cycling shutdowns General information The Shutdowns are organized in alphabetical order based on the OptiView Control Center Panel messages. The Microcomputer Control Panel messages are also included under these headings. Whenever the OSCD or Harmonic Filter Logic Board generates a Cycling Shutdown, a series of events occurs.

Table 4: Cycling shutdown message Message Description This shutdown is generated by the OSCD logic board. If any one phase of motor current as measured by the Output Current Transformers exceeds a threshold. Refer to the chart below for the shutdown threshold value.

Table 4: Cycling shutdown message Message Description This fault has two different timing events. First, the DC Bus voltage must be equal to or greater than 50 VDC for 460 VAC input voltage, 41 VDC for 380, 400 and 415 VSD - Precharge - Low DC Bus Voltage VAC input voltage, or 60 VDC for 575 VAC input voltage, 4 seconds after pre-charge has begun.
Page 40
Table 4: Cycling shutdown message Message Description During initialization, with no current flowing through the Direct Current Current Harmonic Filter - DC Current Transducers (DCCTs), the DCCT’s output voltages are measured and compared Transformer 1 (or 2) with a preset limit in the harmonic filter logic board. If the measured values exceed the preset limits, the DCCTs are presumed to be bad and this shutdown FILTER DCCT 1 (OR 2) ERROR will be generated.
Page 41
Table 4: Cycling shutdown message Message Description Two minimum voltage thresholds must be met in order to complete the precharge cycle. The first occurs 1/10th of a second after pre-charge is initiated and the other Harmonic Filter - Precharge - Low DC occurs 5 seconds after precharge is initiated.
Warning messages General information A WARNING message indicates that the operation of the OSCD or the Harmonic Filter is affected in some manner, but the OSCD is still functioning. Warning messages Table 5: Warning messages Warning Description This message is displayed when the Pre-Rotation Vanes are not calibrated or have Warning - Vanes Uncalibrated - Fixed failed to calibrate, and the OSCD is enabled.
VSD frequently asked questions Why doesn’t the measured input amps of the OSCD agree with the rated FLA? The input current to the OSCD may be considerably lower, compared to the output current. This is due to the power factor at the input to the OSCD being greater than 0.95, and nearly unity when the Harmonic Filter option is included.

• Vane stroke is too large. Remove the sensitivity jumper in the Micro Computer Control Center, or program a lower sensitivity on the OptiView Control Center. Also, check the vane motor to see that the fullest possible stroke is being used. Moving the vane motor arm pivot point closer to center, and extending the degrees of travel by adjusting the internal end stops, will reduce the amount of vane action for the same period of operation.
