6. Description of the compressor capacity control
Each screw compressor of the Frame 4 series, installs a sensor for the measurement of the compressor slide position.
Such position data is sent to the controller through a 4-20 mA proportional signal. The controller uses this signal to
control the logic of the refrigerated water system and the starting of the compressors. The minimum signal corresponds
to 25% of the volume capacity of the compressor while the maximum signal corresponds to 100%.
This type of sensor guarantees a linear response of the signal according to the position of the capacitive pole and has no
reset capabilities (see Figure a). To reset the slide position signal, it is necessary to access the software through the
keypad.

6.1 Setting of the capacity transducer
Under the “Service” menu (protected by password) of the relevant compressor, once the request “adjustable sensor?”
appears on the display, just select “N”.
After this, the request to introduce the type of the installed compressor appears. Verify the compressor model on the
nameplate and input the information.
Once the compressor model information has been entered, the correction of the minimum and maximum values must be
made. Unload the compressor completely as previously described and verify, by means of the I/O key, that the measured
reference signal is 25%. If different from 25%, make the necessary adjustment of the measured value under the service
menu password (the screen next to the compressors setup). The same procedure must be carried out once the
compressor is loaded to 100%.
7. Water temperature Setpoint Reset
Among the controllers options, there are also many possibilities to regulate the unit with particular logics or external
signals.
One of the functions that engineers and technicians find most useful, is the possibility to modify the local control
setpoint of the refrigerated water in accordance with the following logics:
1. Dual setpoint: Through an external contact (by customer), it is possible to change over the local setpoint of control
between two well defined values. Such option results advantageously applicable in case of installation with ice
bank. Such application normally requires a positive setpoint (e.g. 7°C) to be used in the daytime and a second
negative setpoint (e.g. -5°C) for the night time. Obviously, in the case that the water temperature at the evaporator
outlet is lower than 4°C, the correct amount of antifreeze must be added to the water system.
2. From external signal: By using an external 4-20mA signal, it is possible to modify the value of the local setpoint
within predetermined minimum and maximum limits.
3. From outside ambient temperature: This function, which can be enabled under the "User" password, allows to
modify the setpoint according to a defined external temperature range. A reduction of the external temperature
causes an increase of the control setpoint. Such system allows to economise energy when the outside temperature
drops under the design value.
