Remark

These transmitters measure the temperature and humidity of the return air. When the return air temperature (average reading from the 2 transmitters) rises above 24o C ( adjustable ), the UCP will gives signal to start the duty ACCU while the duty AHU is in operation. The refrigeration compressor and condenser fan will operate simultaneously. The compressor operation is interlocked with condenser fans operation and it will not started without running all duty condensing fans. 4.2

System Safety Protection

During the duty ACCU is in operation, the UCP will continuously monitor the respective system low refrigerant pressure via low refrigerant pressure switch ( xx-PSL-001A or B ) mounted on the refrigeration suction line and high refrigerant pressure via high refrigerant pressure switch ( xx-PSH-001A or B ) mounted on the refrigeration discharge line. When the reading on the low refrigerant pressure switch fall below set point, the UCP will activate pump down function and stop the compressor. When the refrigerant pressure rises above set point, the compressor will be able to restart automatically. When the reading on the high refrigerant pressure switch goes above xx.x bar (g), the UCP will stop the compressor. When the refrigerant pressure drop below xx.x bar (g), the compressor will be able to restart but it required manual reset on PLC touch screen to eliminate high refrigerant pressure cut off alarm. The compressor can‟t be restarted within 5 mins (adjustable) with auto restart operation ( e.g compressor auto cutoff when temperature reach set parameter or pump down activated due to low refrigerant pressure reaches set point ). 4.3

When the value reading from the above instruments is higher / lower than the set point mentioned above, a general alarm will be generated. The UCP will indicate the respective alarm at the HMI and the panel mounted Buzzer will generate an intermittent sound. The common fault alarm is transmitted to the PCS. If the HVAC system is operating in AUTO mode, either one of the Trip function ( HMI will specify which Trip function ) will Stop the duty system and change over to operate the Stand-by system as duty automatically. 5.0

Temperature & Humidity Regulation

The duct mounted temperature and relative humidity transmitters ( xx-MTT-101 on LER 1st Floor, xx-MTT-201 on 2nd Floor ) are installed inside the return air stream of first floor and second floor ( HVLV Room and Unit Control Room). When the reading (average of the 2 readings) is higher than set point ( 24oC ) and the compressor will be in operation to bring down the temperature and humidity level inside the buildings. When the reading value reach set point ( 24oC ) or below, the refrigerant suction pressure will drop accordingly due to less cooling and dehumidification load. Based on the refrigeration suction pressure and control oil pressure, the compressor will be regulated in unload operation by factory assembled hydraulic capacity control unloader system to maintain humidity level inside the building. The compressor will load again if the cooling load demand increases. During fully unload condition and temperature reading falls below minimum set point ( 18oC ), the system will be pump down and compressor will be STOP in operation. The compressor will restart automatically when the sense temperature reaches above set point or the high temperature ( over 28oC ) alarm message will be displayed at UCP HMI and panel mounted Buzzer will generate an intermittent sound.

Pressure Regulation

7.1

Pressure Regulation ( HVLV Room )

The compartment is pressurized to 50 Pa( +/- : 10 / 15 Pa ). The supply and return air flow rate inside this compartment is balanced during testing and commissioning. The room differential pressure transmitter ( xx-PDT-101 ) is installed inside the HVLV room. During auto operation, this differential pressure transmitter monitors the room pressure. It also used as signal to modulating damper ( xx-MD-101 ) to regulate return air flow ( by opening or closing dampers ) and make sure the rooms are pressurized. When the value on the PDT is lower than minimum set point ( 35 Pa) after a time delay of 60 seconds ( adjustable ), a general alarm will be activated. The UCP HMI will show alarm message and Buzzer will generate an intermittent sound. The room low pressure differential alarm is transmitted to PCS. Supply air required to the air lock-1 is served by HVAC system and maintain +25 Pa above atmosphere by arranging no return air from the air lock. 7.2

Pressure Regulation ( Unit Control Room )

The compartment is pressurized to 50 Pa( +/- : 10 / 15 Pa ). The supply and return air flow rate inside this compartment is balanced during testing and commissioning. The room differential pressure transmitter ( xx-PDT-201 ) is installed inside the unit control room. During auto operation, this differential pressure transmitter monitors the room pressure. It also used as signal to modulating damper ( xx-MD-201 ) to regulate return air flow ( by opening or closing dampers ) and make sure the rooms are pressurized. When the value on System Design Specification

Check before starting:-

The compressor lubrication should be checked immediately after starting. Maximum and recommended oil level during operation shall be within the sight glass range mounted of the compressor. Minimum oil level is monitored by an oil differential pressure switch. The time delay period for oil level switch is set to 120 seconds after start up the compressor. If there is not enough oil pressure and the refrigeration compressor must stop immediately. 8.4

Crankcase Heater

The crankcase heater must be energized during standstill. The crankcase heater in the compressor prevent high refrigerant dilution of the oil during standstill. It shall only be switched on if compressor is filled with oil. Note: If the oil pressure switch cuts-out during the starting stage or the oil level falls below recommended sight glass level, this indicates a severe lack of lubrication. It may happen due to small pressure difference. Check the oil return line before adding additional amount of lube oil or danger of liquid slugging. 9.0

The cycle is repeated automatically. 10.0

Pump Down Operation

10.1

Pump Down Mode

The UCP can control the pump down sequence manually in the MAN mode. Operator has to access the maintenance control page in the HMI to control and start pump down operation. When pump down is activated, the liquid line solenoid valves will close, the compressor will keep running till the suction pressure reaches 1.4 bar(g) and the low pressure switch ( xx-PSL-001A or B ) will stop the compressor. 10.2

Pump Down System

Pump down system is required when danger of liquid migration exists for system where the compressor or parts of the suction line and suction accumulators can reach a lower temperature than the evaporator.

Transformer Room Ventilation System

The heat radiated from the equipments inside the transformer room is removed by mechanical ventilation system. The supply air fan capacity is estimated based on amount of heat radiated from the equipments and the average room temperature inside the compartment is maintained 8oC above average outside ambient air temperature. The exhaust air fan capacity is estimated based on amount of supply air to offset the air leakage through door cracks and any opening inside the compartment as well as to maintain slight positive pressure inside the transformer room. The transformer room ventilation system is powered and controlled by HVAC system – 1 unit control panel ( xx-UP-01 ). The F&G dampers ( xx-FD-007 & 008 ) are installed inside the supply and exhaust air stream. Temperature Regulation The temperature transmitter ( xx-TT-101 ) is installed inside the transformer room. When the reading on the temperature transmitter is higher than various set point and the ventilation fans will be in speed regulating operation according to requirement. If the temperature reaches ( 45oC ) and high temperature alarm message will be displayed at UCP HMI and panel mounted Buzzer will generate an intermittent sound. Pressure Regulation The compartment is maintained slight positive pressure relative to atmosphere and slight negative pressure than that of HVLV room. This room has a dedicated supply air fan ( xx-EMF-001 ), exhaust air fan ( xx-EMF-002 ) and it works as a slave of the supply air ventilation fan. The pressure differential switches ( xx-PDS-006 ) and ( xx-PDS-007 ) are installed across the supply air fan and exhaust air fan respectively. During auto mode, the fan operation is interlocked function with supply air duct and exhaust air duct fire dampers. When ventilation fan fail ( Pressure Differential Switch Reading < Set Pt.), the respective pressure switch will send the signal to UCP, generate an alarm after a delay of 90 seconds. The slight positive pressure in this room is achieved by balancing and manual adjustment of volumetric supply air flow rate and the exhaust air flow rate during commissioning. The supply air amount is designed to overcome leakage air to the external walls and doors. Conditions for the ventilation fan to start ( auto mode ) are , 1.

Alarm Management

The ACMV control panel front mounted buzzer is activated when there is an alarm in the ACMV system and which serves as the operator interface. Alarm management is handled by ACMV control panel. Alarm from the pressure differential switches ( mounted across filters, blowers, room ) shall be implemented with time delay to prevent nuisance alarm due to specific fluctuations in measurement value. When warning alarm is activated, buzzer will sound and fault indication is prompted on the ACMV panel. By pressing the alarm acknowledged push button, buzzer will goes silent but fault indication is remained on. Once the fault is rectified, press the reset button on the front panel of ACMV control panel to reset the ACMV system. Differential pressure alarm generated due to high air pressure drop across the air filters and higher room temperature alarm shall be visible on the ACMV control panel as common fault. Loss of room pressure alarm, ACMV Unit A Fault alarm and ACMV Unit B Fault alarm generated in the ACMV control panel are visible as individual fault alarm in the PCS but reset can be done only from ACMV control panel.

Password Protection

Password protection can be done on the electronic temperature controller. This is to ensure that only authorized and trained personnel are allowed to enter the system control section for the operation of the ACMV system and changing of setting values.

18.18

Sensors

When the sensor is faulty, there is no input signal to the electronic temperature controller error massage will be displayed on the respective controller.
