    Immersion Water Temperature Sensor McQuay offers the water temperature sensors for use with the CSM. McQuay Part # 049763202 is a single immersion sensor. McQuay Part # 049763203 is a pair of immersion sensors matched to ±0.1°F (±0.056°C). Matched temperature sensor pairs should be used if both supply and return chilled water temperature sensors will be installed to provide more accurate temperature differential readings.

    Outdoor Air Temperature and/or Relative Humidity Sensor McQuay offers an outdoor air temperature (OAT) sensor for use with the CSM (McQuay Part # 049763302). McQuay also offers a relative humidity sensor/OAT sensor combination (McQuay Part # 112024301). The only externally visible difference is the appearance of the sensing element.
  • Page 19: Field Wiring

    Field Wiring Following are descriptions of the various field-wiring requirements. A typical CSM field-wiring diagram is shown in Figure 24. Wiring must comply with the National Electrical Code and all local codes and ordinances. Failures caused or contributed to by wiring not in accordance with these instructions will not be covered by warranty. Power Wiring Building power is wired directly to the transformer supplied with the CSM.

  • Page 21: Free Topology Networks

    ORKS Free Topology Networks Each Lon network node (chiller, CSM, Remote I/O Module) must be equipped an FTT-10A transceiver for network communication. For each MicroTech II chiller, an optional L Communication Module includes the required ORKS FTT-10A transceiver. This transceiver allows for (1) free topology network wiring schemes using twisted pair (shielded or unshielded) cable and (2) polarity insensitive connections at each node.
  • Page 22: Free Topology Restrictions

    Figure 18. Combining Network Segments with a Repeater Termination Termination Free Topology Restrictions Although free topology wiring is very flexible, there are restrictions to the number of nodes on a segment, the maximum bus length, and the wire size. The maximum number of nodes per segment is 64. The maximum total bus length depends on the wire size: Wire Size Maximum Node-to-Node Length...
  • Page 23: Network Cable Termination

    A stub is a piece of cable that is wired between the node and the bus (see Figure 17). Note that if the bus is wired directly to the node, there is no stub, and thus the stub length is zero. If you are wiring to a field terminal strip on a unit, be sure to account for any factory wiring between the terminal strip and the controller.

  • Page 31: Remote I/O Wiring

    Remote I/O Wiring The remote I/O modules for the CSM allow for additional analog inputs, analog outputs, digital inputs, and digital outputs for Cooling Load Pump Control and Cooling Tower Control. Since both cooling load pumping and cooling tower control are optional features of the CSM, remote I/O modules will not be required on all jobs.

    Can cause equipment damage. If analog inputs/outputs on a MicroTech II Remote I/O Module are connected to more than one external device, the connected analog outputs/inputs of those devices must be isolated from ground. If they are not, ground loop currents could occur which could damage the remote I/O module and connected equipment.

    Modems Remote connection to the CSM is available through a modem. Remote access through a modem is slower than remote access through an Internet connection. However, if Internet access is not available or cannot be provided due to security (firewall) issues or other reasons, the modem provides an alternative. Full access to the Web User Interface for monitoring and control of the CSM is provided via modem connection.

    System Setpoint. Many chillers (including McQuay MicroTech controlled chillers) only accept external setpoint reset in the form of a 4-20 mA signal. The 2-10 VDC signal from the remote I/O module must be changed to 4-20 mA with a signal converter. This converter is wired to the same power source that supplies 24 VAC to the module and is spliced into the signal wiring as shown in Figure 30.
