  • Page 4: Controller Introduction

    CONTROLLER INTRODUCTION The Xe-90M/145M control system provides efficient and reliable compressor operation. The controller supports thirty languages, independently configurable units of measure as well as enhanced network and communication capabilities. This microprocessor-based controller uses a finger touch membrane for operation of the compressor and setting control parameters.
  • Page 5 The major components of the control system include the controller, voltage transformer, and solenoid valves to control compressor operation. A series of pressure sensors, temperature sensors, relays, and switches make up the instrumentation that provides feedback to the controller. Operating and navigating the controller is easy and intuitive through a series of folders and pages within the graphical user interface (GUI).

    Customer’s Main Power Supply The customer is responsible for correctly sizing and installing the Main Fuse Protection. This is intended to protect the machine during an overcurrent condition. These fuses should be time-delay in order to accommodate the inrush current at machine startup. For an instant, the inrush current drawn by the machine can be several times greater than the full-load rating.

  • Page 98  If the differential temperature between the coolant injection and the Air End discharge greater than 40°F (4.44°C) check for clogged oil filter/clogged piping (Air End needs more oil in the rotors to cool down compression).  For units with a blower drive ensure the blower is running at 100% (50 HZ or 60 HZ depending on the drive parameter/motor data plate).
  • Page 99  Clean cooler. Check for ductwork restriction. Ensure blower is running.  Check 1ATT and 4ATT sensor readings. Check connections/calibrate sensors. Low Ambient Xe Software Logic for R & RS machines: Will occur if the Enable Ambient Monitoring set point is ON, low ambient enable set point is OFF, and the package inlet temperature is less than 40°F (4.44°C) for a period of 30 minutes.
  • Page 100  For machine with Low Ambient option check if louvers stuck open/louver motor stuck open or not working. High Motor Winding Temperature Xe Software Logic for RS machines: Will occur if any enabled Motor Winding RTD temperature reading exceeds 302°F (150°C). Recommended Checks ...
  • Page 101 with the overload setting. Is the motor pulling more amps than normal?  Check incoming power for low voltage condition affecting high amps in the line.  Cool down motor and monitor with an infrared temperature gun. High Motor Bearing Temperature Xe Software Logic for RS machines: Will occur if any enabled Motor Bearing RTD temperature reading exceeds...
  • Page 102  Ensure all wires are connected properly to the RTD Monitor option installed in the machine.  Cool down motor and monitor with an infrared temperature gun. Motor Winding Temperature Failure Xe Software Logic for RS machines: Will occur for each motor winding temperature if the corresponding Motor Temperature Enable set point is set to ON and the RTD monitor shows an open circuit condition for a given channel for 10 consecutive reads.
  • Page 103 Will occur for each motor bearing temperature if the corresponding Motor Temperature Enable set point is set to ON and the RTD monitor shows an open circuit reading for a given channel for 10 consecutive reads. Recommended Checks  Ensure the RTD monitor is connected to the 24 VDC power supply and to the controller P9 COM3.
  • Page 104  Ensure the RTD monitor is connected to the 24 VDC power supply and to the controller P9 COM3.  Disconnect the 6 winding and 2 bearing temperature sensors to clear the alarm in case one sensor is shorting/grounding the RTD monitor. If alarm persists, the RTD monitor module is bad.
  • Page 105  Ensure sump and package discharge sensors are reading correctly with machine off. Check sensor/reconnect sensors. Check ground.  Check for inlet filter assembly properly seating on the inlet valve. Check for dirt and debris. Take oil sample. Blower Fault Xe Software Logic for R &...

  • Page 107 sensor reads a value greater than 125°F (51.7°C) (High Ambient OFF) or 135°F (57.2°C) (High Ambient ON). Recommended Checks  Compare 1ATT thermistor sensor to resistance chart.  Is the ambient temp higher than 125°F?  Is the package exhaust air recirculating back to the compressor inlet? Improve airflow to package.
  • Page 108 case the power quickly returns. A phase monitor is something that can cause this trip. Recommended Checks  Check/reset MCB3 circuit breaker. If trips again there is a shorted/grounded component. Remove all the components from P1 terminal with the exception of the hot 120 VAC and ground cable. Re connect the components to see which one is causing the trip (troubleshoot by elimination technic)

    Start Inhibit Trip Guide High Air End Discharge Temperature This will occur if 2ATT is greater than 95% of 228°F (108.9°C). Alarm clears when 2ATT falls below 217°F (102.8°C). High Sump Pressure This will occur if the sump pressure (3APT) is 25 psi (1.72 Bar) or higher than the rated pressure of the compressor.
