The multiple-chiller design provides flexibility in the control application and improved controls and system protection. IThe images used in this document are for reference purposes only. Components and component locations may vary according to specific product models. Measurements may vary ±0.38 in. (10 mm). 2 .1 Product Description This section describes some of the key design features of the VARC, the control application, the LCD and touch screen displays, and the inputs and outputs. 2 .1 .1 VARC Design Features The VARC uses a precision Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) loop control algorithm that manages the capacity requirements of the system by modulating the compressor speed and balancing chiller output with the required load. The PID system differs greatly from the on/off control of a standard chiller system, as the PID modulates the speed of the compressor to increase or decrease its capacity allowing for reduced current consumption by the electrical system. This smooth operation eliminates large swings in current on the generator. This completely variable capacity chiller uses an inverter to modulate the speed of the compressor to achieve the desired chilled water setpoint. This allows the compressor to run at a minimum speed of 30 Hz to a maximum of 240 Hz depending on compressor model. The VARC also uses the advanced technology of an Electronic Expansion Valve (EEV). This provides more precise control of superheat across a broad range of conditions with no erratic swings as the valve reacts to temperature and pressure changes (no “hunting”). Using an advanced algorithm, the VARC maintains superior superheat control over extreme operating conditions. The VARC controller is internally grounded with isolation between inputs and outputs. The output relays offer double isolation so that different voltages can be used for groups of relays. For temperature measurements, the system uses NTC type 10K@77° thermistors. For both suction and discharge monitoring, the system uses ratiometric 0–650 PSI (45 bar) range pressure transducers.

2 .1 .2 VARC Control Application The built-in VARC control application supports the following features: • Selection and sequencing of up to six chillers • Selection and sequencing of one Chilled Water Pump (CWP) and one or more Sea Water Pumps (SWP) • Selection and sequencing of up to six electric heaters • Sequencing of devices for run time equalization • Alarms and interlocks • Load shedding • Troubleshooting help Sequencing for chillers, pumps, and heaters is the order in which they start up and turn off. Sequencing is based on run time, which is the amount of hours a specific compressor, pump, or heater has run. The VARC is factory programmed with the options enabled for that system. Although the system offers flexibility, these options can be enabled only by a factory representative. Users can select Normal, Econo, or Boost mode operation in a single-stage configuration. 2 .1 .3 PGD1 LCD Display The PGD1 provides an LCD display and six buttons for navigating the control software. q r w t e y 1 PGD1 LCD Display Components q Alarm r Scroll Up w Program t Enter e Escape y Scroll Down 2 .1 .4 PLDPRO LCD Display The PLDPRO provides an LCD display and six buttons for navigating the control software. q r w t e y 2 PLDPRO LCD Display Components q Alarm r Scroll Up w Program t Enter e Escape y Scroll Down

2 .2 Inputs and Outputs The VARC allows you to monitor analog inputs, digital inputs, and relay outputs to determine the status of the system. 2 .2 .1 Analog Inputs IIf a temperature sensor is defective or not connected, the VARC generates an alarm for that sensor. Input I/O # Board I/O Description Chilled Water Return Temperature Sensor AI-1 B1 The chilled water supply sensor is continuously monitored whether in Cooling, Reverse Cycle, or Electric Heat mode. It detects a high-temperature condition in the supply water from the chiller. If the chilled water temperature is greater than or equal to 125 °F (52 °C), the following occurs: • In Reverse Cycle mode, all enabled compressor relays are de-energized, turning off the compressors. • In Electric Heating mode, all enabled heater relays are de-energized, turning off the heating elements. • A high temperature fault is generated. • The compressor or electric heat relay re-energizes when the temperature drops to 110 °F (43 °C). You must acknowledge and clear the fault prior to re-enabling the VARC or the disabled stage. See “Viewing Alarms for Each Stage” on page 28. Freeze Temperature Setpoint AI-2 B2 The chilled water supply sensor is continuously monitored whether in Cooling, Reverse Cycle, or Electric Heat mode. It detects a freeze condition in the supply water of the chiller. If the chilled water temperature is equal to or less than 36 °F (2 °C), the following occurs: • The compressor relay is de-energized, shutting off the compressor. • A low temperature fault is generated. • The compressor relay re-energizes when the temperature reaches 42 °F (6 °C). You must acknowledge and clear the fault prior to re-enabling the VARC or the disabled stage. See “Viewing Alarms for Each Stage” on page 28. Condenser Freeze Protection AI-3 B3 The condenser outlet refrigerant temperature sensor monitors the condenser coil temperature. In Heat mode, if the coil temperature drops below 30 °F (-1 °C), the VARC automatically lowers the speed of the compressor to half the speed that it was currently running. While performing this operation, the display indicates Freeze Defrost. Suction Pressure 1 AI-6 B6 The VARC continuously monitors the suction pressure. If the suction pressure is below the alarm setpoint for longer than the programmed time delay, a Low Suction Pressure fault is generated. You must acknowledge and clear the fault prior to re-enabling the VARC or the disabled stage See “Viewing Alarms for Each Stage” on page 28. Discharge Pressure 1 AI-7 B7 The VARC continuously monitors the discharge pressure. If the discharge pressure is above the alarm setpoint for longer than the programmed time, a High Discharge Pressure fault is generated. You must acknowledge and clear the fault prior to re-enabling the VARC or the disabled stage. See “Viewing Alarms for Each Stage” on page 28. Pump Current Monitoring (Optional) 1 AI-9 (CW) AI-10 (SW) B-9 (CW) B-10 (SW) Pump current monitoring for the chilled water and Sea Water Pump (SWP) is an optional feature. It requires the medium-sized PLC, instead of the standard smaller version. With this option, you can view the current draw from each pump on the PGD1 display and the touch screen. 1 The VARC has a proprietary algorithm that keeps the system from turning off immediately for low pressure or high pressure. The VARC gradually reduces its speed to compensate for low or high pressure conditions.

General Information 2 .2 .2 Digital Inputs Digital inputs are used to monitor the status of the VARC protection circuits. At powerup, all discrete inputs are checked before the system is enabled. Any faults detected on startup must be verified and cleared via the VARC before the system will start normal operation. For information on clearing alarms, see “Viewing Alarms for Each Stage” on page 28. Input I/O # Board I/O Description Refrigerant High Side Pressure Limit DI-1 DI-1 If the high pressure switch is tripped and turns off the compressor, the VARC acknowledges an open circuit and generates a High Discharge Pressure fault. The VARC will not allow the compressor relay to be re-energized until the high pressure switch is in the closed position. You must acknowledge and clear the fault prior to re-enabling the VARC or the disabled stage. See “Viewing Alarms for Each Stage” on page 28. Econo Mode Selection DI-2 DI-2 This optional input is used to put the VARC into Econo mode. While Econo mode is enabled by this input, the VARC cannot be put into Normal or Boost mode. Chilled Water Flow Switch DI-3 DI-3 With the VARC in either Heat or Cool mode, the Flow switch must be closed prior to system starting or a stage being enabled. In operation, if flow is lost for more than 10 consecutive seconds, the following occurs: • The compressor or heat relay is disabled for the stage that has lost flow. • A Chilled Water Flow fault is generated. • The VARC goes into lockout. • A manual restart is required, after the system initiates, retries, and fails or exceeds timeout. You must acknowledge and clear the fault prior to re-enabling the VARC or the disabled stage. See “Viewing Alarms for Each Stage” on page 28. Load Shedding Input DI-4 DI-4 The load shedding standard input is activated with a 230 V signal. When load shedding becomes active, the VARC shuts off the compressor and maintains that state until the load shedding input is disabled. In a multi-stage operation, load shedding shuts down the stage with the highest run hours. Every unit has a load shed input. The number of load shedding signals received (one per unit) determines how many units are shut off according to run hours. Electric Heat (E. H.) Flow Switch DI-5 DI-5 This optional switch is enabled through the factory settings. With the VARC in either Heat or Cool mode, the Flow switch must be closed prior to system starting or a stage being enabled. In operation, if flow is lost for more than 10 consecutive seconds, the following occurs: • The electric heat is disabled for the stage that has lost flow. • An Electric Heat Flow fault is generated. • The VARC goes into lockout. • A manual restart is required, after the system initiates, retries, and fails or exceeds timeout. You must acknowledge and clear the fault prior to re-enabling the VARC or the disabled stage. See “Viewing Alarms for Each Stage” on page 28. Cool Mode Selection Switch DI-6 DI-6 These switches allow for remote mode control. When using digital input mode selection, the display cannot be used to change mode, but all other functions on the display are available. Heat Mode Selection Switches DI-7 DI-7 2 .2 .3 Digital Relay Outputs IIf a temperature sensor is defective or not connected, the VARC generates an alarm for that sensor.

Operation 6 Operation The VARC provides many operational features to conserve energy, improve performance, and provide system control. 6 .1 Operational Modes The main operational modes determine whether the VARC generates heat or cooling: Cool mode, Heat mode, and Electric Heat mode. Pump operation is coordinated with these modes. The VARC also has Econo mode and a Maintenance mode for troubleshooting. The operational modes can also be selected using the digital inputs if wired to the control board. These inputs allow you to select Econo mode if enabled for either cool or heat mode. Cool and Reverse cycle Heat mode can be selected by using the digital input controls. This allows the system to be switched between modes by using a common switch or controlled through some other automated system. These inputs do not support Electric heat operation. 6 .1 .1 Cooling and Heating The VARC supports a Cool mode and two heating modes: Heat (reverse cycle heating) and Electric Heat. Cool When Cool is selected on the touch screen or the LCD buttons, the VARC starts cooling according to the temperature setpoint. The pumps operate as described in “Pump Operation” on page 20. Cool mode activity is as follows: • If the return water/supply water temperature is above the cooling setpoint and the staging delay has elapsed, the board energizes the compressor relay. • The compressor continues to run until the cooling setpoint has been reached or an alarm condition exists. • A stage has a minimum run time of 60 seconds before it can be turned off and a minimum off time of 10 seconds before it can be re-enabled. This minimum on time is required to ensure that the system is not cycling on and off and thereby not allowing the compressor to properly warm-up. This ensures proper oil lubrication of the system. • If the system calls for a stage to be toggled on or off, the next available stage that meets the staging criteria is used. • Load shedding occurs in multi-stage operation when approaching the chilled water setpoint. Compressor rotation is active during run mode: • The compressor with the lowest running hours is enabled first, and the compressor with the highest running hours is disabled first. • After chilled water and sea water flows are stable for 10 seconds (default), the first stage is enabled, and the compressor starts. • The first stage continues to run up to 100 percent speed before enabling the next stage. • If the PID loop requires demand, then the next stage is enabled with a startup delay of three minutes before running up to required speed. Heat (Reverse Cycle Heating) When Heat is selected on the touch screen or the LCD buttons, the VARC starts heating according to the temperature setpoint. The pumps operate as described in “Pump Operation” on page 20. Heat mode activity is as follows: • There is a 45-second delay after the compressor ramps up before it is energized. • The reversing valve relay is energized to operate the VARC in Reverse Cycle Heat mode. • If the return/supply water temperature is below the programmed heating setpoint and the staging delay has elapsed, the VARC energizes the compressor relay. • The compressor continues to run and the reversing valve remains energized until the heating setpoint has been reached or an alarm condition exists.

• If setpoint is reached, the compressor reduces its speed to maintain the water temperature. Once it has reached temperature and a hysteresis of one degree, the compressor turns off and the reversing valve turns off immediately. • A stage has a minimum run time of 60 seconds before it can be turned off and a minimum off time of 10 seconds before it can be re-enabled. If the system calls for a stage to be toggled on or off, the next available stage that meets the staging criteria is used. Compressor rotation is active during run mode: • The compressor with the lowest running hours is enabled first and compressor with the highest running hours is disabled first. • Enable Reverse Cycle Heat only for the system. • After chilled water and sea water flows are stable for 10 seconds (default), the first stage is enabled and the compressor starts. • The first stage continues to run up to 100 percent speed before enabling the next stage. • If the PID loop requires demand, the next stage is enabled with a startup delay of three minutes before running up to the required speed. Electric Heat (Optional Heater Barrel) When Electric Heat is selected on the touch screen or LCD buttons, the VARC starts heating according to the temperature setpoint. The VARC energizes the heater relay if return/supply water temperature is below the programmed setpoint and the staging delay has elapsed in a multi-stage configuration. Heater rotation is active during run mode: • The heater with the lowest running hours is enabled first and the heater with the highest running hours is disabled first. • Enable Electric Heat only for the system. • After chilled water flow is stable for 10 seconds, the first stage is enabled and the electric heater starts. • The first stage continues to run for five minutes before enabling the next stage. • If the PID loop requires demand, the next stage is enabled. 6 .1 .2 Pump Operation The pump modes adjust as required by the system operating mode. Chilled Water Pump The chilled water pump relay closes if the system is in Heat or Cool mode. The pump is enabled five seconds prior to the first stage being enabled. The pump is on for continuous operation when system is enabled. Sea Water Pump The sea water pump has selectable operating modes between continuous operation or cycle-with-compressor operation. The default configuration is to cycle with the demand. The sea water pump relay closes five seconds before the compressor starts in Heat or Cool modes. It opens five seconds after the last compressor cycle is completed. If immersion heating is available and used, the sea water pump is disabled. 6 .1 .3 Current Power Limiting The Econo Mode provides control over the capacity of the system. When the user enables econo mode, the system is limited by the speed of the compressor. The default value for econo mode is 65%. Under setpoints, the user can adjust the Econo Mode value between 35% and 90%.

Operation 6 .1 .4 Maintenance Maintenance mode is available for troubleshooting. See “Maintenance Mode” on page 39. 6 .2 Powerup and Startup The VARC Chiller Controller can be operated as a single- stage or a multi-stage chiller plant. During initial setup, you configure the system for the number of stages and the available options. The VARC System is set for supply water control, but it can be modified for return water control, if needed. 6 .2 .1 Normal Stage Startup The system has a time delay between the staging up of the various stages: 1. Stage 1 is initiated and starts its operation. 2. When the PID determines that more capacity is required, stage 2 is initiated. 3. When the system has maintained the chilled water loop and the PID has determined that no additional stage is required or has met capacity demand, it reduces the speed of the compressors. 4. The compressors then operate at minimal speed to maintain the chilled water loop. If the speed of the compressor still exceeds the demand, the stage with the most run hours is turned off. 6 .2 .2 Operational Checks When the VARC is enabled, the system performs pre- startup checks on all chilled water flow switches and HP switches. Individual stage faults disable only that stage. 6 .2 .3 Compressor Startup The VARC utilizes a BLDC compressor that is capable of operating at a very high frequency which requires that the compressor have a ramped startup to establish proper lubrication so as to not damage the compressor. This startup has a ramp time and a minimal speed operation that will last for 100 seconds to allow the compressor to properly warm up before operating at maximum speed. The compressor minimum on time is 60 seconds and minimum off time is 10 seconds with a minimum time between starts of 60 seconds. These default parameters allow the compressor to operate in a safe mode that will not damage the compressor. 6 .3 Operating the Touch Screen ISome screens contain pop-up screens with information.
