2.1 Control functions on the module
List of the main control functions
Item Description
Automatic water
temperature control
1 Slide valve control
The outlet water temperature of the chiller unit is detected with a thermistor, and the stroke of slide valve is
controlled continuously by time-sharing.
Setting Temperature
Neutral Zone
Load down area
(Hold)
Load up area
Example of cooling operation: Outlet Water Temperature
Capacity control range: 100~25%, Stop.
2 Thermo ON-OFF control
When operation load becomes light, outlet water temperature falls below the "Stop temperature range" against
the lower limit temperature in neutral zone (in the case of cooling operation; increase in the case of heating
operation). By doing so, the compressor stops (Thermo OFF).
The settings of stop temperature range can be changed locally between 0.5 and 2.0ºC (in 0.5ºC steps).
Example of cooling operation:
Lower limit in
neutral zone
Stop temperature range
Outlet water temperature
Thermo OFF
Also, in case that water temperature increases above "Recovery temperature range" against inlet temperature
when Thermo ON is set (in the case of cooling operation; decrease in the case of heating operation), the
compressor starts (Themo ON). (However, there is a time guard with a minimum of 3 minutes )
It is possible to change the settings of recovery temperature range, but please take into account that the water
volume necessary to maintain the frequency of compressor run/stop will be different.
Compressor Control
Once that "Compressor delay time" has passed after pump startup, compressor starts up with
Υ
-Δ control,
performs startup unload control during 60 seconds, and then shifts to capacity control.
The settings of Compressor delay time can be changed in the range between 30 seconds and 10 minutes (in
30 second steps).
Please set a delay time adjusted to the characteristics of the installation, to prevent compressor startup until a
sufcient ow of cold water can be ensured after pump startup. Default: 30 seconds.
Recovery from
momentary power
failure
Compressor is temporarily stopped when a momentary power failure (drop of more than 20% of power source
voltage detected for a period between 13 milliseconds and 2 seconds) occurs, and it is automatically restarted
after time guard time has passed. Also, momentary power failure detection signal is output during 10 seconds
upon detection of momentary power failure.
Automatic recovery
from power
interruption
(Option)
It is possible to restart automatically after recovery from a power interruption (or power source OFF) exceeding
2 seconds.
NOTE
• It returns to the state immediately before the occurrence of power interruption. In case that the unit was
stopped before power interruption, it remains stopped.
• Since this function is optional, it is necessary to make the settings for the enabling of this function at the time
of local installation.
• Since there is the possibility that operation starts abruptly upon power ON, given the circumstances at the
time of power OFF, please be careful enough when enabling this function.
Reverse prevention The status of the three phases of power input is monitored, to prevent operation in reverse and open phase.

Item Description
Anti-freezing for
winter
(Automatic pump
operation)
In order to prevent freezing caused by a decrease of water temperature in winter or under other low ambient
temperature conditions, pump operation order is output automatically.
NOTE
Starting conditions can be selected locally from the 3 types below.
• Water temperature under 15ºC (mainly for systems where the total pump head from the chiller unit to the load
side is supported by a common pump. It protects the entire chiller and load side equipment)
• Water temperature under 5ºC (mainly for systems where the head of chiller unit side and of load side are
supported by separate pumps). It only protects the chiller unit side)
• Disable function: When selecting "Disable function", other freeze prevention measures, such as extraction of
water in winter or winding a heater around the heat exchanger Mare necessary. Refrigerant may leak if the
water side heat exchanger freezes.
Incorrect operation
prevention
It is not possible to switch between remote and main unit control, and between cooling and heating, during
operation of the chiller unit. An alarm is output with respect to such incorrect operation, and to wrong DIP switch
settings. Also, an alarm is output to prevent danger, in case that an operation order is input from a remote when
settings are for main unit control.
Demand control
Compressor operation can be limited by external signal input.
Forced thermo OFF: Compressor is stopped forcedly during external signal input.
Current limit function: Operation capacity is limited to make the running current lower than the setting value of
current limit control, during external signal input. Limit value can be changed by local settings.
Forced load-up: Load-up output is conducted forcedly during external signal input.
Capacity hold: Capacity control is ignored forcedly during external signal input.
2 temperature
setting
Cooling operation and heating operation have 2 setting temperatures each, and it is possible to select which
setting temperature is valid by external signal input. In case of operating with a different extraction temperature,
such as heat storage or air conditioning, it is not necessary to change the setting temperature of the main
chiller unit.
Forced load up from
external contact
Forced load up is conducted during outdoor order (non-voltage a contact) input.
It is possible to select whether "the pump shall stop" or "the pump can be kept working" in the event of a thermo
OFF, when thermo OFF judgement at the main unit is enabled.
(This function cannot be used when the function to control the number of units is used )
Information about
overhaul period
Compressor operation time for preventive maintenance is monitored, and when it reaches the overhaul period,
the "Overhaul mark" is shown on the LCD screen.
Disabling of remote
stop alarm clear
(Option)
It is possible to disable the release of alarms by remote stop order input.
NOTE
• Normally, alarms can be released by stop control from either remote or the main unit.
• Since this function is optional, it is necessary to make the settings for the enabling of this function at the time
of local installation.
Limit of waiting time
for pump feedback
(Option)
It is possible to determine pump interlock abnormality and output an alarm in case that no pump feedback
signal is input after a certain amount of time has passed upon startup of the chiller unit.
This time can be changed by local settings, between 1 and 30 minutes (in 1 minute steps).
NOTE
The default feedback waiting time is "unlimited".
Thermo OFF
judgement delay
(Option)
It is possible to delay the judgement time of thermo OFF to avoid immediate thermo OFF when water
temperature reached thermo OFF judgement value due to uctuations in the amount of cold water ow, caused
by momentary variations in load or the activation of valves, etc.
NOTE
• Since this function is optional, it is necessary to make the settings for the enabling of this function at the time
of local installation.
• Thermo OFF is produced when reaching operation limit temperature, even if being in judgement time.

Item Description
Thermo OFF
judgement due to
inlet temperature
It is possible to determine thermo OFF from the inlet water temperature (return temperature from load) of the
chiller unit. It is possible to change the settings of thermo OFF temperature.
NOTE
Since this function is optional, it is necessary to make the settings for the enabling of this function at the time of
local installation.
Forced fan
operation
It is possible to force fan operation by external signal input.
It is enabled as a function to prevent the accumulation of snow while the chiller unit is stopped.
Intermitent fan
operation
Intermitent operation (15 seconds run, 3 minutes stop) is performed automatically when outdoor temperature is
lower than 4ºC, in order to prevent freezing of fan due to the accumulation of snow when the fan is stopped in
winter.
It is possible to select the disabling of this function as well. Default: Enabled.
Preservation of
alarm data
When an alarm occurs, the contents of the alarm, as well as the date and time of occurrence are recorded.
The most recent 10 cases are stored, and then they are deleted from the oldest. Also, for the most recent 3
cases, the data of each sensor (right before occurrence, 10 seconds before and 20 seconds before) as well as
data regarding each setting and operation conditions are stored, and it is possible to check them later on. This
supports the early identication of the causes of alarm occurrence.
Water Temp Set Setting is possible in 0.5ºC units.
Display
Main unit side
LCD device: Displays the status of the chiller unit (Run, stop, contents of alarm, operating pressure and
temperature, etc.)
7-Segment (for backup of the LCD): Displays the status of the unit and content of alarms with individual codes
Pilot lamps: Lit on for power source: white, run: red, alarm: orange
Remote display
Outputs operation of the chiller unit, cool/heat mode, pump operation, alarm, warning and defrosting
Control of Master/
Slave group
(Module Control)
(Option)
When installing multiple units, operation as one entire heat system is possible by connecting each chiller unit
through H-LINK.
It is possible to connect a maximum of 8 units to one group.
NOTE
• Since this function is optional, it is necessary to make the settings for the enabling of this function at the time
of local installation.
• An exclusive controller is not required, but optional parts may become necessary depending on the structure
of the local system.

Method of outlet temperature detection
1 Load-up I control at over 9°C (The capacity is changed a lot in order to approximate the target temp. quickly)
2 Load-up II control at 8~9°C (The capacity is changed moderately)
3 In neutral zone (6~8°C), load is balanced and performance is not changed.
4 Under neutral zone (below 6°C) load-down control is performed and performance is decreased.
5 Stop temp: Compressor is stopped at 5°C. The inlet temp of that time is saved.
6 When inlet temp becomes 2°C higher than that of at stop, re-start signal is output and unit is re-started after at least 3
min guard.
