  • Page 136: Setpoint Offset

    4.3 Setpoint offset This function allows automatic cooling and heating setpoint variation within a preset range, based on a signal sent to the unit controller. The function monitors in real time the input value (analogue signal, or temperature read by the remote 1 T+H probe, or temperature red by the external T+H probe, or the calculated return temperature), and calculates the offset value based on the parameters.
  • Page 137 Note: The previous chart shows a condition when the entered P27.27 value is below 0. If the probe selected for compensation fails, the setpoints will assume the non–compensated values as per parameters P50.01 and P50.02. In case of compensation through analogue input, the only available parameters will be the maximum P27.24 and P27.27 offset values, as the minimum and maximum limits correspond to the signal sent to the controller (0–1V, 0–5V, 0.5–4.5V, 0–20mA, 4–20mA).

    5.2 Minimum delivery temperature limit 5.2.1 Objectives Setting a minimum limit to the delivery temperature may be a request justified by the presence, very close to the unit delivery outlet, of devices that are sensitive to relatively low temperatures. The delivery temperature can only fall excessively if there is a sudden decrease in the temperature of the cold coil (evaporation temperature or, more likely, the temperature of the chilled water coming from a chiller).

    HEATING 6.1 Heating resources The sources available for ambient air heating are the following: • Heating elements, managed as simple on/off loads. INFORMATION: The activation of the electric heaters forces the demand for ventilation at the maximum speed. This speed is defined as the greater between P10.10 and that generated by the ventilation control logics.

    6.3 Post-ventilation function for the electric heaters This function, available for all the units equipped with electric heaters, is for cooling the electric heaters when the unit is turned off and the electric heaters are still active. When the OFF command is given (at the keyboard, by the supervisor, or remotely), the fan continues to run at nominal speed for a period of time set in the parameter (P23.61).

A crucial point of humidifier operation is excess current control. In fact, whenever voltage is applied to the boiler electrodes after a period of shutdown, short but very intense current peaks can be observed.

    10 TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY MEASUREMENT 10.1 Return air T+H probe This probe is available for all the units that require humidity control and allows the enabling of the following functions: • dehumidification; • Humidification. It also allows the reading of the humidity, in addition to temperature, and can be used for the calculation of the return temperature. The probe is connected via Modbus to the Fieldbus port defined using the controller parameters at address 128.

    10.4 External T+H Probe This probe is available for all the units. It also allows the reading of the external temperature and humidity. Probe 1 is connected via Modbus to the Fieldbus port defined using the parameter of the controller at address 133. 11 INTERNAL AIR FAN MANAGEMENT 11.1 Introduction The unit is fitted with EC radial evaporating fans.
  • Page 159: Automatic Speed Regulation Function

    11.5 Automatic speed regulation function This function allows to automatically adjust EC radial fan speed. It may follow two logics: • Constant flow rate regulation. • Constant residual ∆P regulation. For these two logics, a differential pressure transducer is used and positioned so as to detect the pressure value used for regulation.
  • Page 160 When configuring the unit the project flow value and the number of fans in the unit are entered. The programme also requires that the fan flow is never less than the set rated flow. The parameters entry mask is under the “Fan” menu accessible through the “Service” password. The purpose of regulation is to keep the flow rate constant when there is an increase in the loss of load, with reference to the graph below.

  • Page 162 The purpose of regulation is to keep the residual ∆P constant when there is an increase in the counter–pressure, with reference to the following graph. Figure 11-7: constant head fan operation curve Starting from nominal work point (A), the increase in counter-pressure (due, for instance to a damper closing) causes a shift in the fan work point along the curve towards point B, with the ensuing increase in pressure.

    11.5.3 Calibrating the constant flow function To allow greater adjustment precision a calibration mask has been included, which evaluates the difference between the real value read by the transducer and the value to reach. Calibration is performed during production testing using the following mask: Fan - Const.
  • Page 164: Command From Supervisor

    11.6 Command from supervisor This function allows direct control of the internal fans of the unit by sending a ventilation command to the controller from the supervision system. The fan speed is changed according to the last command received. This means that if communication fails between the controller and the supervisor, the fans will continue to run at the same speed of the command received before communication failure.

    11.8 Fan adjustment based on temperature (former fan special function 02) Fan speed can be controlled on the basis of: • return temperature; • delivery temperature; • temperature differential (return temperature - delivery temperature). 11.8.1 Fan adjustment based on return temperature This special function permits modulation of the EC fan using the return air (ambient air) probe as the adjustment temperature, at the same time adjusting the actuators using the delivery air temperature.

    12 DAMPER MANAGEMENT 12.1 Delivery damper There is a delay before the fan is started up to allow the delivery damper to open. This involves use of the auxiliary damper contact. As soon as the damper is almost completely open, the fan is cleared for start-up. For further details, please refer to the electrical diagrams.
