pressure valve to maintain the pressure difference between condenser and evaporator. The output of
this valve is 4-20mA type.
Bef ore using this function, the appropriate configurations should be in place. They are pressure
dif ference value for 20mA and pressure difference for 4mA.
The head pressure valve should be in fully closed position when chiller is in OFF mode.
If the chiller system is equipped with a three way head pressure control valve, there will be another head
pressure control valve output 2. The two outputs control the three way vlave at the same time. The

Black Box

The black box task continuously stores operation parameters in the memory every 5 seconds. Reporting
of chiller operation alarm would trigger the controller to generate a collection of the records. Each
collection contains up to 180 records (15 minutes) which consist of 168 records (14 minutes) before the
