“
Specifications:
- Product: Controller for condensing unit OptymaTM Plus
- Software Version: 3.7x
- Manufacturer: Danfoss
- Website: www.danfoss.com
Product Usage Instructions:
1. Condensing Unit Control:
The controller regulates the condensing temperature by adjusting
the difference between condensing temperature and ambient
temperature. The setpoint can be changed using the upper and lower
buttons. For night operation, the reference can be raised to reduce
fan noise.
2. Fan Operation:
The controller maintains the condensing temperature above
outdoor temperature by controlling the fan speed. Users can define
fan control settings in menu ‘F17’. Fan speed at start and low
loads can be adjusted using specific functions.
3. Liquid Injection:
The controller can activate liquid injection into the economizer
port if the discharge temperature approaches the maximum allowable
level. Note that this function uses the Aux Relay if
configured.
4. Low Pressure Monitoring:
The internal low pressure monitoring function cuts out the
compressor if suction pressure falls below the lower limit after
the minimum ON time is exceeded. An alarm (A2) is issued in such
cases.
5. Pump Down Limit:
The compressor stops if suction pressure falls below a set value
after the minimum ON time is exceeded.
6. Separate Thermostat Function:
The taux sensor can be used for heating functions with
programmable temperature settings, where the AUX relay connects the
heating element.
7. Digital Inputs:
- DI1: Starts and stops compressor
- DI2: Various user-selectable functions
- DI3: Safety signal from low/high-pressure switch
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q: How can I adjust the fan speed at startup?
A: You can set the fan speed at startup using the ‘Jog Speed’
function, and it will be maintained for 10 seconds before changing
to the required regulation speed.
Q: What happens if the compressor detects low suction
pressure?
A: The compressor will be cut out by the low pressure monitoring
function if suction pressure falls below the lower limit after
exceeding the minimum ON time, and an alarm (A2) will be
issued.

Introduction
Application
Condensing unit control
Advantages · Condensing pressure control in relation to outside temperature · Fan variable speed regulation · On/off or variable speed regulation of the compressor · Heating element control in crankcase · Day/night controller operation · Built-in clock function with power reserve · Built-in Modbus data communication · Monitoring discharge temperature td · Oil return management control at variable speed control
Principle The controller receives a signal for demanded cooling, and it then starts the compressor. If the compressor is controlled by variable speed, the suction pressure (converted to temperature) will be controlled according to a set temperature value. Condenser pressure regulation is performed again following a signal from the ambient temperature sensor and the set reference. The controller will then control the fan, which allows the condensing temperature to be maintained at the desired value. The controller can also control the heating element in the crankcase so that oil is kept separate from the refrigerant. For excess discharge temperature, the liquid injection will be activated in the suction line (for compressors with the liquid injection option).
Functions · Control of condensing temperature · Control of fan speed · On/off control or speed regulation of the compressor · Control of heating element in crankcase · Liquid injection into economizer port (if possible) · Raising the condenser pressure regulation reference during night
operation · Extern start/stop via DI1 · Safety cut-out activated via signal from automatic safety control
Regulation reference for condensing temperature The controller controls the condensing Reference, which is in detail the difference between condensing temperature and ambient temperature. The reference setpoint can be shown with a brief push on the middle button and adjusted with the upper and lower button. The reference can be raised at night to allow slower fan speeds to reduce fan noise. This is done via the night set back feature.
This setting can be changed without entering the programming mode so care needs to be taken to not adjust unintentionally.
Day/Night The controller has an internal clock function which changes between daytime and night operation. During night operation, the reference is raised by the ‘Night offset’ value. This day/night signal can also be activated in two other ways: · Via an on/off input signal – DI2 · Via data communication.

Fan operation The controller will control the fan so that the condensing temperature is maintained at the desired value above the outdoor temperature.
The user may select from different ways to control the fan:
· Internal speed regulation Here the fan is speed-controlled via terminal 5-6. At a need of 95% and above, the relay on terminal 15-16 are activated, while 5-6 are deactivated.
· External speed regulation For larger fan motors with insufficient internal outlet, an external speed regulation can be connected to terminal 54-55. A 0 10 V signal indicating the desired speed is then sent from this point. The relay on terminal 15-16 will be active when the fan is in operation.
In menu ‘F17’ the user can define which of the two controls to use.
Fan speed at start When the fan is re-started after an idle period, it will be started at a speed that is set in the ‘Jog Speed’ function. This speed is maintained for 10 seconds, after which the speed changes to the regulation need.
Fan speed at low loads At low loads between 10 and 30%, the speed will remain at that which is set in the ‘FanMinSpeed’ function.
Fan speed at low ambient temperatures To avoid frequent start/stops in low ambient temperatures in which the fan’s capacity is high, the internal amplification factor is lowered. This provides a smoother regulation. The ‘Jog speed’ is also lowered in the area from 10 °C and down to -20 °C. At temperatures below -20 °C the ‘Jog Low’ value can be used.

Compressor compartment pre-ventilation The condenser fan starts and operates for a period of time and speed before the compressor starts. This happens in case of any mildly flammable refrigerant selected via “o30 Refrigerant”, to get a safe atmosphere while sucking potential flammable A2Lrefrigerant gas out of the compressor compartment. There is a fixed delay of about 8 seconds between this preventilation and compressor start in order to reduce the airflow significantly and avoid any condensing problems on low ambient temperatures.

Compressor control The compressor is controlled by a signal at the DI1 input. The compressor will start once the input is connected. Three restrictions have been implemented to avoid frequent start/ stops: – One for minimum ON time – One for minimum OFF time – One for how much time must elapse between two starts. These three restrictions have the highest priority during regulation, and the other functions will wait until they are complete before regulation can continue. When the compressor is ‘locked’ by a restriction, this can be seen in a status notification. If the DI3 input is used as a safety stop for the compressor, an insufficient input signal will immediately stop the compressor. Variable speed compressors can be speed-controlled with a voltage signal at the AO2 output. If this compressor has been running for a long period at low speed, the speed is increased for a short moment for the purpose of oil-return.
Maximum discharge gas temperature The temperature is recorded by sensor Td. If variable speed control is chosen for the compressor, this control will initially reduce the compressor capacity if the Td temperature approaches the set maximum value. If a higher temperature is detected than the set max. temperature, the fan’s speed will be set to 100%. If this does not cause the temperature to drop, and if the temperature remains high after the set delay time, the compressor will be stopped. The compressor will only be re-started once the temperature is 10 K lower than the set value. The above mentioned re-start restrictions must also be complete before the compressor can start once again. If the delay time is set to ‘0’, the function will not stop the compressor. The Td sensor can be deactivated (o63).
Liquid injection into economizer port The controller can activate the liquid injection into economizer port if the discharge temperature is approaching the maximum allowable temperature. Note: Liquid injection function use the Aux Relay if the relay is configured to this function.
High pressure monitoring During regulation, the internal high pressure monitoring function is able to detect an over the limit condensing pressure so that the regulation can continue. However, if the c73 setting is exceeded, the compressor will be stopped and an alarm is triggered. If, on the other hand, the signal comes from the interrupted safety circuit connected to DI3, the compressor will immediately be stopped and the fan will be set to 100%. When the signal is once again ‘OK’ at the DI3 input, the regulation will resume.
Low pressure monitoring During regulation, the internal low pressure monitoring function will cut out the compressor upon detecting a suction pressure that falls below the lower limit, but only once the minimum ON time is exceeded. An alarm will be issued (A2). This function will be time delayed, if the compressor starts at low ambient temperature.
Pump down limit The compressor will be stopped if a suction pressure that falls below the set value is registered, but only once the minimum ON time is exceeded.

Heating element in the crankcase The controller has a thermostat function which can control the heating element for the crankcase. Oil can thus be kept separate from the refrigerant. The function is active when the compressor has stopped. The function is based on the ambient temperature and suction gas temperature. When the two temperatures are equal ± a temperature difference, power will be supplied to the heating element. The ‘CCH off diff’ setting indicates when power will no longer be supplied to the heating element. The ‘CCH on diff’ indicates when 100% power will be sent to the heating element. Between the two settings the controller calculates the wattage and connects to the heating element in a pulse/pause cycle which corresponds to the desired wattage. The Taux sensor can be used to record the temperature in the crankcase if desired. When the Taux sensor records a temperature lower than Ts+10 K, the heating element will be set to 100%, but only if the ambient temperature is below 0 °C.
Separate thermostat function The taux sensor can also be used in a heating function with programmable temperature. Here, the AUX relay will connect the heating element.
Digital inputs There are two digital inputs DI1 and DI2 with contact function and one digital input DI3 with high voltage signal. They can be used for the following functions: DI1: Starts and stops compressor DI2: Here the user can select from various functions
Signal from an external safety function External main switch / night setback signal / separate alarm function / Monitoring of input signal / signal from an external speed control DI3: Safety signal from low/high-pressure switch
Data communication The controller is delivered with built-in MODBUS data communication. If a different form of data communication is requested, a LON RS485 module can be inserted in the controller. The connection will then be made on terminal RS 485. Important All connections to the data communication must comply with the requirements for data communication cables. See literature: RC8AC.
Display The controller has one plug for a display. Here display type EKA 163B or EKA 164B (max. length 15 m) can be connected. EKA 163B is a display for readings. EKA 164B is both for readings and operation. The connection between display and controller must be with a cable which has a plug at both ends. A setting can be made to determine whether the Tc or Ts is to be read out. When the value is read out, the second read-out can be displayed by briefly pressing the lower button. When a display is to be connected to the built-in MODBUS, the display can advantageously be changed to one of the same type, but with Index A (version with screw terminals). The controllers address must be set higher than 0 in order for the display to be able to communicate with the controller. If connection of two displays is required, one must be connected to the plug (max. 15 m) and the other must then be connected to the fixed data communication.
Override The controller contains a functions which can be used together with the override function in the master gateway/system manager.

Fault message
In an error situation the LED’s on the front will flash and the alarm relay will be activated. If you push the top button in this situation you can see the alarm report in the display. There are two kinds of error reports – it can either be an alarm occurring during the daily operation, or there may be a defect in the installation. A-alarms will not become visible until the set time delay has expired. E-alarms, on the other hand, will become visible the moment the error occurs. (An A alarm will not be visible as long as there is an active E alarm). Here are the messages that may appear:

Operation
Display The values will be shown with three digits, and with a setting you can determine whether the temperature is to be shown in °C or in °F.
Cutout alarm relay / receipt alarm/see alarm code · A short press of the upper button
If there are several alarm codes they are found in a rolling stack. Push the uppermost or lowermost button to scan the rolling stack.
Light-emitting diodes (LED) on front panel The LED’s on the front panel will light up when the relevant relay is activated.
= Refrigeration = heating element in crankcase is on = Fan running
The light-emitting diodes will flash when there is an alarm. In this situation you can download the error code to the display and cancel/sign for the alarm by giving the upper button a brief push.
The buttons When you want to change a setting, the upper and the lower button will give you a higher or lower value depending on the button you are pushing. But before you change the value, you must have access to the menu. You obtain this by pushing the upper button for a couple of seconds – you will then enter the column with parameter codes. Find the parameter code you want to change and push the middle buttons until value for the parameter is shown. When you have changed the value, save the new value by once more pushing the middle button. (If not operated for 20 (5) seconds, the display will change back to the Ts/Tc temperature display).
Examples
Set menu 1. Push the upper button until a parameter r05 is shown 2. Push the upper or the lower button and find that parameter you
want to change 3. Push the middle button until the parameter value is shown 4. Push the upper or the lower button and select the new value 5. Push the middle button again to freeze the value.
Set point 1. Push the middle button until the temperature value is shown 2. Push the upper or the lower button and select the new value 3. Push the middle button again to conclude the setting.
Reading the temperature at Ts (if Tc is the primary display) or Tc (if Ts is the primary display) · A short press of the lower button
Get a good start
With the following procedure you can start regulation very quickly:
1 Open parameter r12 and stop the regulation (in a new and not previously set unit, r12 will already be set to 0 which means stopped regulation.
2 Select refrigerant via parameter o30
3 Open parameter r12 and start the regulation. Start/stop at input DI1 or DI2 must also be activated.
4 Go through the survey of factory settings. Make any necessary changes in the respective parameters.
5 For network. – Set the address in o03 – Activate scan function in the system manager.
Note When delivering the condensing unit, the controller will be set to the condensing unit type (setting o61). This setting will be compared with your refrigerant setting. If you select a “nonpermitted refrigerant”, the display will show “ref” and await a new setting.
(In the event of a controller change, 061 must be set as indicated in the instructions from Danfoss)

MODBUS (terminal 60, 61, 62) Built in Modbus data communication. If data communication is used, it is important that the installation of the data communication cable is performed correctly. See separate literature No. RC8AC… (Alternatively the terminals can be connected to an external display type EKA 163A or 164A, but then they cannot be used for data communication. Any data communication must then be carried out by one of the other methods.)
Supply voltage 230 V AC (This must be the same phase for all 230 V connections).
FAN Fan connection. Speed controlled internally.
Alarm There is a connection between terminal 7 and 8 in alarm situations and when the controller is without power.
Comp Compressor. There is a connection between terminal 10 and 11, when the compressor is running.
CCH Heating element in the crankcase There is connection between terminals 12 and 14 when heating takes place.
Fan There is connection between terminals 15 and 16 when the fan’s speed is raised to over 95%. (Fan signal changes from terminal 5-6 to 15-16. Connect wire from terminal 16 to the fan.)

Aux Liquid injection in suction line / external heating element / oil return function for speed-controlled compressor There is connection between terminals 17 and 19, when the function is active.
DI3 Digital input signal from low/high pressure monitoring. The signal must have a voltage of 0 / 230 V AC.
Electric noise Cables for sensors, DI inputs and data communication must be kept separate from other electric cables: – Use separate cable trays – Keep a distance between cables of at least 10 cm. – Long cables at the DI input should be avoided
Installation considerations
Accidental damage, poor installation, or site conditions, can give rise to malfunctions of the control system, and ultimately lead to a plant breakdown. Every possible safeguard is incorporated into our products to prevent this. However, a wrong installation, for example, could still present problems. Electronic controls are no substitute for normal, good engineering practice. Danfoss will not be responsible for any goods, or plant components, damaged as a result of the above defects. It is the installer’s responsibility to check the installation thoroughly, and to fit the necessary safety devices. Special reference is made to the necessity of signals to the controller when the compressor is stopped and to the need of liquid receivers before the compressors. Your local Danfoss agent will be pleased to assist with further advice, etc.
