[ VII Control ]
-4- Compressor Frequency Control <PQHY/PQRY>
Depending on the capacity required, the frequency of the compressor is controlled to keep constant evaporation temper-
ature (0°C [32°F] = 0.71 MPa [103 psi]) during cooling operation, and condensing temperature (49°C [120°F] = 2.88 MPa
[418 psi]) during heating operation.
The following table shows the frequency change of the inverter compressor during normal operation.

The maximum frequency during heating operation is affected by the outdoor air temperature to a certain extent.
(1) Pressure limit
The maximum limit of high pressure (Pd) is set for each frequency level. If this limit is exceeded, the frequency will be
reduced every 30 seconds.
(2) Discharge temperature limit
The discharge temperature (Td) of the compressor in operation is detected, and if it exceeds the upper limit, the frequency
is reduced by 5 Hz.
Control is performed 30 seconds after compressor start-up and every 30 seconds thereafter.
Operating temperature is 115°C [239°F] .
(3) Periodic frequency control
Frequency control other than the ones performed at start-up, upon status change, and for protection is called periodic fre-
quency control (convergent control) and is performed in the following manner.
[Periodic control cycle]
Periodic control is performed after the following time has passed
30 seconds after either compressor start-up or the completion of defrost operation
30 seconds after frequency control based on discharge temperature or pressure limit
[The amount of frequency change]
The amount of frequency change is controlled to approximate the target value based on the evaporation temperature
(Te) and condensing temperature (Tc).
