    Motor The compressor motor is a hermetic permanent magnet high-speed design with magnetic bearings. The compressor impeller is overhung from the end of the motor shaft and has no bearings of its own. The motor includes angular contact ball bearings only engaged with the rotor shaft during shutdown after rotation is stopped or during shutdown due to loss of power to the magnetic bearings.
  • Page 14: Variable Speed Drive

    Variable speed drive The variable speed drive is factory packaged with the chiller. It is designed to vary the compressor motor speed by controlling the frequency and voltage of the electrical power to the motor. The control logic automatically adjusts motor speed as required to suit lift and capacity requirements. Power panel The power panel includes the uninterrupted power supply and power storage battery.

  • Page 17: Optiview Control Center

    OptiView control center The YORK OptiView control center LCD graphic display and keypad is the interface for starting, stopping, configuring, monitoring, and commanding the chiller controls. The control center is a microprocessor-based system for centrifugal chillers. It controls the leaving chilled liquid temperature (LCHLT) and maintains safe operation.
  • Page 18 Building Automation System (BAS) allows increased remote control of the chiller, including 24-hour performance monitoring by a remote site. An optional circuit board called the SC-EQUIP provides Johnson Controls and YORK mechanical equipment such as the YVAM chiller with BAS networking connectivity.
  • Page 19: System Operation Description

    Some screens, displayed values, programmable setpoints, and manual controls exist for service technician use only. They are only displayed when logged in at Service access level or higher. The setpoints and parameters displayed on these screens are explained in detail in YORK YVAM Service Manual (Form 160.88-M2).
  • Page 20: Anti-Surge Minimum Frequency

    Reduced speed also reduces the available capacity of the chiller, when speed reduction is possible. If speed is reduced, the chiller power use is reduced. As a result, at reduced capacity requirements where condenser pressure is also reduced, the motor speed is reduced as much as possible while maintaining chilled liquid temperature and sufficient lift.
  • Page 21: Surge Protection

    Surge protection The surge protection feature detects surge events. It provides a running count of the surges detected over the lifetime of the chiller. It allows the user to define how many surges are excessive and how the control reacts to an excess surge condition. When excessive surging is detected, this feature can shut down the chiller.

    Microcomputer Control Center pump run contacts, the pump automatically starts, and so this step is not necessary. Note: The coolant temperature inside any Johnson Controls-supplied liquid-cooled motor starter must be maintained above the dewpoint temperature in the equipment room to prevent condensing water vapor inside the starter cabinet.

    Automatic temperature shutdown The Leaving Chilled Liquid Temperature Cycling Offset, Shutdown setting on the panel can be programed to set the temperature below the LCHLT setpoint at which the chiller automatically cycles off when the load is less than the chiller minimum capability. This setting defines the temperature offset below the LCHLT setpoint where shutdown is expected.

    Note: A pad of 50 log sheets can be ordered from your local Johnson Controls branch by requesting Form 160.88-MR1. An accurate record of readings serves as a valuable reference for operating the system. Readings taken when a system is newly installed establish the normal conditions with which to compare later readings.

    Drive operation OptiSpeed compressor drive overview The new YORK OptiSpeed Compressor Drive (OSCD) is specifically designed for the application of ® driving a permanent magnet high speed motor with magnetic bearings used on the YORK Model YVAM Centrifugal Air-Cooled Chiller. This type of design allows the chiller to be designed as a complete system, and take full advantage of the strengths of each major component within the system.
  • Page 112: Smart Sensor System

    The OSCD can now be configured for many different input voltage levels. Lower input voltages may de-rate the input power rating of the OSCD, but the OSCD will produce the same output voltage and will use the same motor. The Harmonic filter is no longer an option, and the function of the Harmonic filter is included in a new rectifier module.
  • Page 113 The smart sensor system does not communicate to the drive logic board. A flip dot on the smart sensor board displays black under normal conditions. If the system is triggered, the flip dot displays red, and opens the circuit breaker. The flip dot does not require power to display. Reapplying power to the chiller resets the flip dot to black, and the reason the circuit breaker opened is lost.

    Important: The high pressure discharge lines that supply compressed refrigerant to the condenser have two isolation valves. These two valves must always be open when any evacuation or refrigerant handling service is performed on the chiller system as a whole. Use these service valves for all vapor and charging connection processes.

Electrical tests of motor winding resistance must be performed by a qualified service technician in accordance with the Service Instructions Manual (Form 160.88-M1) because it involves determination of power leads between the motor and the variable speed drive. Results from these winding insulation resistance tests must be trended each interval to determine any degradation in motor windings.
