Unit-Mounted Wye-Delta Starter (Optional)
— The 19XR chiller may be equipped with a wye-delta starter
mounted on the unit. This starter is intended for use with
low-voltage motors (under 600 v). It reduces the starting
6 current inrush by connecting each phase of the motor
windings into a wye configuration. This occurs during the
starting period when the motor is accelerating up to speed.

nects the phase windings into a delta configuration. Starter
control, monitoring, and motor protection is provided by
Carrier’s Integrated Starter Module (ISM).

operating limits. (Example: A temperature sensor is an ana-
log device because its resistance changes in proportion to
the temperature, generating many values.)

resentation of the value of a monitored source. (Example: A
switch produces a discrete signal indicating whether a value

Internal View motor. The guide vane is a variable flow pre-whirl assem-
bly that controls the refrigeration effect in the cooler by
regulating the amount of refrigerant vapor flow into the com-
pressor. An increase in guide vane opening increases capac-
ity. A decrease in guide vane opening decreases capacity. The
microprocessor-based control center protects the chiller by
monitoring the digital and analog inputs and executing
capacity overrides or safety shutdowns, if required.
PIC II System Components — The chiller control
system is called the PIC II (Product Integrated Control II).
See Table 1. The PIC II controls the operation of the chiller
by monitoring all operating conditions. The PIC II can di-
agnose a problem and let the operator know what the prob-
lem is and what to check. It promptly positions the guide
vanes to maintain leaving chilled water temperature. It can
interface with auxiliary equipment such as pumps and cool-
ing tower fans to turn them on when required. It continually
checks all safeties to prevent any unsafe operating condi-
tion. It also regulates the oil heater while the compressor is
off and regulates the hot gas bypass valve, if installed. The
PIC II controls provide critical protection for the compres-
sor motor and controls the motor starter.

A surge condition occurs when the lift becomes so
high the gas flow across the impeller reverses. This condi-
tion can eventually cause chiller damage. The surge preven-
tion algorithm notifies the operator that chiller operating
conditions are marginal and to take action to help prevent
chiller damage such as lowering entering condenser water
temperature.
The surge prevention algorithm first determines if cor-
rective action is necessary. The algorithm checks 2 sets of
operator-configured data points, the minimum load points (MIN.
LOAD POINT [T1/P1]) and the full load points (FULL
LOAD POINT [T2/P2]). These points have default settings
as defined on the OPTIONS screen or on Table 4.
The surge prevention algorithm function and settings are
graphically displayed in Fig. 19 and 20. The two sets of load
points on the graph (default settings are shown) describe a
line the algorithm uses to determine the maximum lift of the
compressor. When the actual differential pressure between
the cooler and condenser and the temperature difference be-
tween the entering and leaving chilled water are above the
line on the graph (as defined by the minimum and full load
points), the algorithm goes into a corrective action mode. If
the actual values are below the line and outside of the dead-

• If an operating fault is detected, an alarm message is gen-
erated and displayed on the CVC default screen. A more
detailed message — along with a diagnostic message —
is also stored into the ALARM HISTORY table.
Checking Display Messages — The first area to check
when troubleshooting the 19XR is the CVC display. If the
alarm light is flashing, check the primary and secondary mes-
sage lines on the CVC default screen (Fig. 12). These mes-
sages will indicate where the fault is occurring. These mes-
sages contain the alarm message with a specified code. This
code or state appears with each alarm and alert message. The
ALARM HISTORY table on the CVC SERVICE menu also
contains an alarm message to further expand on the alarm.
For a complete list of possible alarm messages, see Table 8.
If the alarm light starts to flash while accessing a menu screen,
press the EXIT softkey to return to the default screen to
read the alarm message. The STATUS screen can also be
accessed to determine where an alarm exists.
Checking Temperature Sensors — All tempera-
ture sensors are thermistor-type sensors. This means that the
resistance of the sensor varies with temperature. All sensors

labeled to show the correct orientation.
4. Hand tighten the bolts until the SCR contacts the
heatsink.
5. Using quarter-turn increments, alternating between clamp-
ing bolts, apply the appropriate number of whole turns
referencing the table in Fig. 39.
