Unit Safeties - York YVAA Installation Operation & Maintenance

Form 201.47-ICOM1
Issue date: 17/11/2022
To clear this warning, both the control panel and VSD
control voltage must be turned OFF and the jumpers
properly installed in the VSD wiring harness.
These jumpers are factory installed in the
wire harness plug and should not require
changes.
Invalid serial number warning
If the INVALID SERIAL NUMBER message appears,
immediately contact Johnson Controls Product Techni-
cal Support. The appearance of this message may mean
the chiller has lost important factory programmed in-
formation. The serial number can be entered using the
SERVICE key.
UNIT WARNING: INVALID SERIAL NUMBER

This status message can be bypassed to view addition-
al messages under the STATUS key by pressing the
STATUS key repeatedly to scroll through as many as
three STATUS messages that could possibly be dis-
played at any time.

Unit safeties

Unit safety operation
Unit faults are safeties that cause all running compres-
sors to be shut down, if a safety threshold is exceeded for
3 seconds. Unit faults are recorded in the history buffer
along with all data on the unit and system operating con-
ditions. Unit faults are auto reset faults where the unit will
be allowed to restart automatically after the fault condi-
tion is no longer present. The only exception is any of the
VSD related unit faults. If any 3 VSD unit faults occur
within 90 minutes, the unit will be locked out on the last
fault. A VSD lockout condition requires a manual reset
using the system switches. Both system switches must be
cycled OFF and ON to clear a VSD unit lockout fault. If
a unit safety is in effect, the message will be displayed to
the operator when the STATUS key is pressed.
In the descriptions of the fault displays that follow, the
fault message will show a YYYYYYY to indicate that
a system is in a FAULT condition and will restart when
the fault clears or LOCKOUT" and will not restart until
the operator clears the fault using the keypad.
If a control panel safety occurs after the VSD fault,
but before the fault is reset, the control panel fault is
an ALL FAULT of the VSD fault, meaning it is regis-
JOHNSON CONTROLS
tered as such in the History because it occurred while
the VSD was shutting down or while the systems were
shut down. All faults do not store operating data at the
time of the fault.
If a VSD fault occurs during the fault rampdown or
while the systems are shut down, the VSD fault will
be registered as a new fault. The reason for this is the
belief any VSD fault should be registered with a full
account of the systems data at the time of the fault.
High ambient temp fault
If the ambient temperature rises above 55°C (131°F),
the chiller will shut down with a controlled ramped
shutdown. Restart will automatically occur, if demand
allows, when temperature falls 1.1°C (2°F) below
the cutout (53.9°C [129°F]). This fault cannot cause
a lockout. The fault display message will be present
only during the time when the ambient temperature is
causing a fault condition. The following is a sample
display:
UNIT YYYYYYYY
HIGH AMBIENT TEMP
The unit is also inhibited from starting any time the
temperature is above 53.9°C (129°F).
Low ambient temp fault
If the ambient temperature falls below the program-
mable Low Ambient Temp Cutout the chiller will
shut down with a controlled ramped shutdown. This
fault will only occur if the Low Ambient Cutout is
ENABLED under the OPTIONS key. Restart can oc-
cur, if demand allows, when temperature rises 1.1°C
(2°F) above the cutout. This fault cannot cause a lock-
out. The fault display message will be present only dur-
ing the time when the ambient temperature is causing
a fault condition. The following is a sample display:
UNIT YYYYYYYY
LOW AMBIENT TEMP
The unit is also inhibited from starting any time the
temperature is below the cutout plus 1.1°C (2°F).
Low leaving chilled liquid temp fault
The Low Leaving Chilled Liquid Temp Cutout helps to
protect the chiller from an evaporator freeze-up should
the chilled liquid temp drop below the freeze point.
This situation could occur under low flow conditions
or if the Micro Panel setpoint values are improperly
