3 System design VS 3015 C The basic module of the pack controller for transcritical CO systems consists of an analogue module and a 2 ‾ digital input/output module. The controller is a modular design and can be extended with a maximum of 2 SIOX extension modules, see picture.
4 Application of VS 3015 C The pack controller includes the following functions for the refrigeration compressor pack and condenser: • Control functions • Regulation functions • Monitoring functions • Fault signals • Archiving of messages and operating data These functions include the following: Low-pressure control / compressor control •...

• Fan protection spray system control • The fans are controlled using • relay outputs or • Modbus (ebmpapst fan) HRC operation • Shutdown of the fans in gas cooler bypass operation Monitoring functions • Motor overload cut-out • compressors •...
5 Function of VS 3015 C 5.1 Starting characteristics The following are distinguished for any start-up of the controller: • First start • Restart 5.1.1 First start The first start for the controller can run in various ways: • Predefined parameters are loaded by the controller when first switching on the system (i.e. after a first start) •...
Medium pressure regulation (MP) • Regulation of the pressure in the collection receiver • Activation of the MP control valve • Activation of the MP compressor (parallel compressor) at the collection receiver Regulation of the gas cooler outlet temperature (t ) for one-circuit systems The following possibilities are available for the control of the gas cooler fans.

5.4.1 Control algorithm for LP control The control algorithm depends on the type of control. In the wet vapour range, the temperature is a clear function of the pressure: t = f (p, R744). The controller calculates temperatures for the LP range from the recorded pressures. Temperature values are used exclusively for the regulation.
Compressor switching times for compressor step regulation Compressor switching only occurs if the control error has exceeded a specified value (Dead band) and a specific time for loading or unloading has elapsed. With compressor combined control, the lead time has no influence on the enable of the FC compressor.
Switching on / switching off of fixed-speed compressors If the required capacity can no longer be provided by modifying the already set compressor speed, fixed-speed compressors can be loaded or unloaded. If the speed controlled compressor has reached its maximum speed and if the suction pressure is greater than the to setpoint plus half the neutral zone, a fixed-speed compressor is switched on.
Page 25
In order to do this, the frequency changer must be configured so that an output signal of 0 V at the controller's analogue output corresponds to the minimum frequency and an output signal of 10 V to the maximum frequency. The input signal of the frequency converter must be configured as 0 V - 10 V interface. Operating mode combined control with capacity-controlled fixed-speed compressors (parameter M.com.out.reg. = Yes) With compressor combined control of capacity-controlled fixed-speed compressors, a single-stage speed...

Control action of the example system In the following description, the control action of the system is shown using the example of the above named system. The configured frequency range is thus 35 Hz - 67 Hz; the configured capacity overlap is 10%. It can be specified using the output overlap parameter by how many percent (100% corresponds to the capacity of a completely loaded compressor at 50 Hz) the capacity after loading a compressor stage is lower than before the loading.
The following settings must be made under 3 Setpoints / 6 Base Load for the above example configuration: BaseLoadRot.FC = N In the case of a configuration with an FC compressor with integrated FC, the frequency converter cannot be switched. The base load rotation according to the above time interval is only performed for the fixed-speed compressors.
= maximum t setpoint 0_max = minimum t setpoint 0_min = maximum room temperature for setpoint shift r_max = minimum room temperature for setpoint shift r_min and t can be configured. 0_max 0_min r_min r_max Setpoint shift - demand-dependent via consumer The t setpoint is calculated in accordance with the refrigeration needs of the refrigeration points.
Setpoint shift via external analogue signal If the to-adjustment via external signal has been selected (menu 3-2-1-2), the to setpoint shift is performed via an external 0..10 volts signal. The 0..10 volts analogue input at the terminals 51/52 is used for the to- adjustment.
Depending on the air humidity, a temperature offset, t is then formed that is added to t 0 offset 0_set The setpoint for taking account of the air humidity can be set separately for the day and night operation. 5.4.5 Base load rotation The operating time of each compressor is monitored internally.
In order to switch over the FC compressor, the last compressor output of the corresponding expansion stage is used in each case: • VS 3015 C in the basic configuration, output 4, terminals 43/44 • Configuration with one SIOX extension module, output 8, terminals 72/73 •...

If the positive t control error exceeds the limit value "to max. diff." (menu 3-3) for 10 minutes, the signals at the digital inputs for load shedding are ignored at 10 minute intervals. This guarantees the intrinsic reliability of the refrigeration pack system (sufficient refrigeration capacity is provided). One compressor per load shedding input is unloaded for single-stage compressors.
If the suction pressure regulation is speed-controlled, the compressor connected to the FC can not be unloaded using load shedding. If single-stage and multi-stage compressors are in the pack, the single-stage compressors will be unloaded first. 5.4.7 Emergency power mode The emergency power mode operating mode can be activated using the Emerg.working parameter (menu 3-1).
on the gas cooler outlet temperature. 5.5.1 Control of high pressure control valve The high pressure is regulated by a continuous HP control valve using a PI controller which calculates an opening degree for the valve via a control signal (0..10 V) from the controller. However, a configurable minimum value is not undercut.
HP regulation setpoint calculation in normal operation The HP setpoint is calculated depending on the gas cooler outlet temperature. If the sensor for the gas cooler outlet temperature is defective an HP setpoint of 80 bar is implemented. The calculated high pressure setpoint ensures optimal use of energy under supercritical and subcritical conditions.
• Parallel combined control Regulation using speed controller (continuous control). The high pressure control is performed here using an analogue signal which specifies the required speed to the speed controller. The fans are all connected in parallel to the speed controller, however they can be loaded or unloaded individually. •...
5.6.4 Switching modes for step control There is a choice of three switching modes (menu 3-2-2-1-b) for the step control: • Direct No star-delta switching • KKGG The first half of the relay outputs actuates the star operation of the fan motors (K = low speed) while the second half of the outputs actuates the delta operation (G = high speed).

Switching sequence KKGG Fan stage: S1 L2 S2 L1 S3 L2 Stern Stern Δ Δ Fan 1: OFF / Fan 2: low speed Fan 1; low speed / Fan 2: low speed Fan 1; low speed / Fan 2: OFF Fan 1: OFF / Fan 2: OFF The following table shows the control of the fan outputs using the example of a system with three fans and four fan stages using the KKGG operating mode:...
The time delay for the switching from delta to star operation can be set using the parameter Del. slow speed (menu 3-2-2-1). In the KKGG and KKKG operating modes, the switching to high speed during night operation can be disabled to prevent noise using the parameter Fast speed N (menu 3-2-2-1). If the gas cooler outlet temperature exceeds the setpoint specified in t -Max (menu 3-2-2-1), the high speed is loaded independently from the parameter described above.
Page 40
The input signal for the first to the last but one fan stage is limited to the specified minimum speed plus 50% of the maximum input signal. If a stage reaches this limit value, a further capacity stage is activated after a time delay.
minimum speed + 20%. Subsequently, fan stages are switched off at intervals. If only one fan stage is still active, the speed can be reduced to the minimum speed. Finally, the speed controller is disabled. The speed controller can be disabled by disabling the fan stage 1 (parameter ENABL.COND screen 3-1-e). The fan regulation then operates as a step controller with the steps 2 to n-1.
The speed is reduced if the gas cooler outlet temperature is lower than the setpoint. If the minimum speed is reached, a fan capacity stage is unloaded after a time delay and the speed is increased to the maximum value at the same time.
5.6.9 Gas cooler package with ebmpapst fans ebmpapst is a manufacturer of fan motors that are controlled by the pack controller via the Modbus.

• Partial Search e.g. after replacement of a defective fan Condition: the new fan must have the Modbus address 1 (factory setting). If this is not the case, the Manual Search (recommended) or the Complete Search must be performed. • Complete Search for all fans (recommended for initial commissioning) Note: the configuration of the switching sequence is lost for the complete search and must be checked / defined.
Page 47
6. Alarm signalling The pack controller outputs the following messages in the event of faults: • A status is requested from each ebmpapst fan via the Modbus. If the status of a fan has a value greater than zero, the message "Motorschutz Lx" (x can have the values 1..12) is output. The priority of the alarm is set in menu 3-7.

5.7 Medium pressure regulation The controller regulates the medium pressure (MP) of a CO system using a PI controller. The analogue output 2 (terminals 55/56, 0..10 Volt) is available for the output of the correcting variable. 5.7.1 Regulation The control signal for the MP control valve is calculated using a PI controller. The amplification factors P-factor, I-factor and the time interval for the formation of the I-component Interval I can be configured using the menu 3-2-3.

When all compressors are idle, these error messages are blocked. The following setpoints exist for the medium pressure setpoint shift: OH-P-Incr./m: Ramp speed in bar/minute, using which the medium pressure setpoint should be increased in the event of a OHp fault (Low Superheat-P). OH-P-Decr./m: Ramp speed in bar/minute, using which the medium pressure setpoint should be reduced in the event of a OHp fault (Low Superheat-P).

The function is only active when the suction gas sensor OH-P is available. C. Medium pressure setpoint reduction in the case of alarm "Low Superheat-C" This function has priority over the setpoint increase. If the setpoint increase is active, this is interrupted by the setpoint reduction.
The function is only active when the suction gas sensor OH-C is available. As long as MP setpoint reduction is active due to " Low Superheat-C", no setpoint increase due to " Low Superheat-P" can take place. 5.7.3 Setpoint reduction above medium pressure The function is only active when MP const.valve is set to "No"...

Compressor motor overload cut-out Due to their arrangement in the safety chain, when a high priority safety contact (e.g. high pressure limiter) is tripped, all lower priority alarm contacts are also deenergised and thus active.
The error signal generated from the tripping of the motor overload cut-out is not cancelled until after the reset of the motor overload cut-out and after the manual enable of the compressor. With the entry of Motor protect. N, the compressor is switched off with the tripping of the motor overload cut-out. After the reset of the motor overload cut-out, the compressor is automatically loaded again depending on demand.

1. All inputs and outputs of low voltage signals of the controller must be contacted using shielded cables. Correct design of this shielding is particularly important for systems with FCs / speed controllers. In the case of inadequate shielding, high impairments of the measured values can occur due to the high interference emission of FCs / speed controllers.

8 Operating modes of VS 3015 C 8.1 Manual / automatic emergency mode selection Emergency operation of the compressor pack after a controller failure is possible using the manual / automatic selection. The manual / automatic selection is realised at a relay level that is subordinate to the electronic controller.
8.2 Service Mode After selection of the pack controller Service Mode (menu 8), all compressors and fan outputs are reset step by step. Then all controller functions are inactive so that each digital and analogue output can be set manually. The controller registers the Service Mode by the entry of a message in the log memory.

For the remote control of a controller, it makes no difference whether this is done with a system centre (A), a store computer or with an operator terminal (B) as the user interfaces on the terminals are almost identical and the same functions are available.
9.2.1 Menus and operating screens If the system centre, store computer or operator terminal remain locked down, settings on the controller are read-only. Changes and inputs are not possible. However, if any parametrisation is required, the input lock must be deactivated, see Deactivating the input lock.
