Start-Up, Operation, and Maintenance Instructions
SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Centrifugal liquid chillers are designed to provide safe and
reliable service when operated within design specifications. When operating this equipment, use good judgment
and safety precautions to avoid damage to equipment and
property or injury to personnel.
Be sure you understand and follow the procedures and
safety precautions contained in the chiller instructions as
well as those listed in this guide.
DO NOT VENT refrigerant relief valves within a building. Outlet
from rupture disc or relief valve must be vented outdoors in accordance with the latest edition of ANSI/ASHRAE 15 (American
National Standards Institute/American Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning Engineers). The accumulation of refrigerant in an enclosed space can displace oxygen and cause asphyxiation.
PROVIDE adequate ventilation in accordance with ANSI/ASHRAE
15, especially for enclosed and low overhead spaces. Inhalation of
high concentrations of vapor is harmful and may cause heart irregularities, unconsciousness, or death. Misuse can be fatal. Vapor is heavier
than air and reduces the amount of oxygen available for breathing.
Product causes eye and skin irritation. Decomposition products are
hazardous.
DO NOT USE OXYGEN to purge lines or to pressurize a chiller for
any purpose. Oxygen gas reacts violently with oil, grease, and other
common substances.
NEVER EXCEED specified test pressures, VERIFY the allowable
test pressure by checking the instruction literature and the design pressures on the equipment nameplate.
DO NOT USE air for leak testing. Use only refrigerant or dry
nitrogen.
DO NOT VALVE OFF any safety device.
BE SURE that all pressure relief devices are properly installed and
functioning before operating any chiller.
RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH by electrocution. High voltage is
present on motor leads even though the motor is not running when a
solid-state or inside-delta mechanical starter is used. Open the power
supply disconnect before touching motor leads or terminals.

DO NOT WELD OR FLAMECUT any refrigerant line or vessel until
all refrigerant (liquid and vapor) has been removed from chiller.
Traces of vapor should be displaced with dry air or nitrogen and the
work area should be well ventilated. Refrigerant in contact with an
open flame produces toxic gases.
DO NOT USE eyebolts or eyebolt holes to rig chiller sections or the
entire assembly.
DO NOT work on high-voltage equipment unless you are a qualified
electrician.
DO NOT WORK ON electrical components, including control panels, switches, starters, or oil heater until you are sure ALL POWER IS
OFF and no residual voltage can leak from capacitors or solid-state
components.
LOCK OPEN AND TAG electrical circuits during servicing. IF
WORK IS INTERRUPTED, confirm that all circuits are deenergized
before resuming work.
AVOID SPILLING liquid refrigerant on skin or getting it into the
eyes. USE SAFETY GOGGLES. Wash any spills from the skin with

soap and water. If liquid refrigerant enters the eyes, IMMEDIATELY
FLUSH EYES with water and consult a physician.
NEVER APPLY an open flame or live steam to a refrigerant cylinder.
Dangerous over pressure can result. When it is necessary to heat
refrigerant, use only warm (110 F [43 C]) water.
DO NOT REUSE disposable (nonreturnable) cylinders or attempt to
refill them. It is DANGEROUS AND ILLEGAL. When cylinder is
emptied, evacuate remaining gas pressure, loosen the collar and
unscrew and discard the valve stem. DO NOT INCINERATE.
CHECK THE REFRIGERANT TYPE before adding refrigerant to
the chiller. The introduction of the wrong refrigerant can cause damage or malfunction to this chiller.
Operation of this equipment with refrigerants other than those
cited herein should comply with ANSI/ASHRAE 15 (latest edition).
Contact Carrier for further information on use of this chiller with other
refrigerants.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE fittings, covers, etc., while
chiller is under pressure or while chiller is running. Be sure pressure is
at 0 psig (0 kPa) before breaking any refrigerant connection.
CAREFULLY INSPECT all relief devices, rupture discs, and other
relief devices AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR. If chiller operates in a
corrosive atmosphere, inspect the devices at more frequent intervals.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR OR RECONDITION any relief
device when corrosion or build-up of foreign material (rust, dirt, scale,
etc.) is found within the valve body or mechanism. Replace the
device.
DO NOT install relief devices in series or backwards.
USE CARE when working near or in line with a compressed spring.
Sudden release of the spring can cause it and objects in its path to act
as projectiles.
DO NOT STEP on refrigerant lines. Broken lines can whip about and
release refrigerant, causing personal injury.
DO NOT climb over a chiller. Use platform, catwalk, or staging. Follow safe practices when using ladders.
USE MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT (crane, hoist, etc.) to lift or
move inspection covers or other heavy components. Even if components are light, use mechanical equipment when there is a risk of slipping or losing your balance.
BE AWARE that certain automatic start arrangements CAN
ENGAGE THE STARTER, TOWER FAN, OR PUMPS. Open the
disconnect ahead of the starter, tower fans, or pumps.
USE only repair or replacement parts that meet the code requirements
of the original equipment.
DO NOT VENT OR DRAIN waterboxes containing industrial brines,
liquid, gases, or semisolids without the permission of your process
control group.
DO NOT LOOSEN waterbox cover bolts until the waterbox has been
completely drained.
DOUBLE-CHECK that coupling nut wrenches, dial indicators, or
other items have been removed before rotating any shafts.
DO NOT LOOSEN a packing gland nut before checking that the nut
has a positive thread engagement.
PERIODICALLY INSPECT all valves, fittings, and piping for corrosion, rust, leaks, or damage.
PROVIDE A DRAIN connection in the vent line near each pressure
relief device to prevent a build-up of condensate or rain water.

Manufacturer reserves the right to discontinue, or change at any time, specifications or designs without notice and without incurring obligations.

INTRODUCTION
Prior to initial start-up of the 19XR unit, those involved in
the start-up, operation, and maintenance should be thoroughly
familiar with these instructions and other necessary job data.
This book is outlined to familiarize those involved in the startup, operation and maintenance of the unit with the control system before performing start-up procedures. Procedures in this
manual are arranged in the sequence required for proper chiller
start-up and operation.

through its internal tubes in order to remove heat from the
refrigerant.

Factory-installed additional components are referred to as
options in this manual; factory-supplied but field-installed additional components are referred to as accessories.
The chiller software part number of the 19XR unit is located
on the back of the CVC/ICVC.

Motor-Compressor — This component maintains system temperature and pressure differences and moves the heatcarrying refrigerant from the cooler to the condenser.
Control Panel — The control panel is the user interface
for controlling the chiller. It regulates the chiller’s capacity as
required to maintain proper leaving chilled water temperature.
The control panel:
• registers cooler, condenser, and lubricating system
pressures
• shows chiller operating condition and alarm shutdown
conditions
• records the total chiller operating hours
• sequences chiller start, stop, and recycle under microprocessor control
• displays status of motor starter
• provides access to other CCN (Carrier Comfort Network) devices and energy management systems
• Languages pre-installed at factory include: English, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (ICVC only).
• International language translator (ILT) is available for
conversion of extended ASCII characters (ICVC only).

CHILLER FAMILIARIZATION
(Fig. 1 and 2)
Chiller Information Nameplate — The information
nameplate is located on the right side of the chiller control
panel.
System Components — The components include the
cooler and condenser heat exchangers in separate vessels,
motor-compressor, lubrication package, control panel, and motor starter. All connections from pressure vessels have external
threads to enable each component to be pressure tested with a
threaded pipe cap during factory assembly.

Cooler — This vessel (also known as the evaporator) is located underneath the compressor. The cooler is maintained at
lower temperature/pressure so evaporating refrigerant can remove heat from water flowing through its internal tubes.

Condenser — The condenser operates at a higher
temperature/pressure than the cooler and has water flowing

Factory-Mounted Starter or Variable Frequency Drive (Optional) — The starter allows for the

refrigerant is quite warm (typically 98 to 102 F [37 to 40 C])
when it is discharged from the compressor into the condenser.
Relatively cool (typically 65 to 90 F [18 to 32 C]) water
flowing into the condenser tubes removes heat from the refrigerant and the vapor condenses to liquid.
The liquid refrigerant passes through orifices into the
FLASC (Flash Subcooler) chamber (Fig. 3). Since the FLASC
chamber is at a lower pressure, part of the liquid refrigerant
flashes to vapor, thereby cooling the remaining liquid. The
FLASC vapor is recondensed on the tubes which are cooled by
entering condenser water. The liquid drains into a float chamber between the FLASC chamber and cooler. Here a float valve
forms a liquid seal to keep FLASC chamber vapor from entering the cooler. When liquid refrigerant passes through the
valve, some of it flashes to vapor in the reduced pressure on the
cooler side. In flashing, it removes heat from the remaining liquid. The refrigerant is now at a temperature and pressure at
which the cycle began.

proper start and disconnect of electrical energy for the compressor-motor, oil pump, oil heater, and control panel.

Storage Vessel (Optional) — There are 2 sizes of
storage vessels available. The vessels have double relief valves,
a magnetically-coupled dial-type refrigerant level gage, a
one-inch FPT drain valve, and a 1/2-in. male flare vapor connection for the pumpout unit.
NOTE: If a storage vessel is not used at the jobsite, factoryinstalled isolation valves on the chiller may be used to isolate
the chiller charge in either the cooler or condenser. An optional
pumpout system is used to transfer refrigerant from vessel to
vessel.
REFRIGERATION CYCLE
The compressor continuously draws refrigerant vapor from
the cooler at a rate set by the amount of guide vane opening or
compressor speed (19XRV only). As the compressor suction
reduces the pressure in the cooler, the remaining refrigerant
boils at a fairly low temperature (typically 38 to 42 F [3 to
6 C]). The energy required for boiling is obtained from the water flowing through the cooler tubes. With heat energy removed, the water becomes cold enough to use in an air conditioning circuit or for process liquid cooling.
After taking heat from the water, the refrigerant vapor is
compressed. Compression adds still more heat energy, and the

MOTOR AND LUBRICATING OIL
COOLING CYCLE
The motor and the lubricating oil are cooled by liquid refrigerant taken from the bottom of the condenser vessel
(Fig. 3). Refrigerant flow is maintained by the pressure differential that exists due to compressor operation. After the refrigerant flows past an isolation valve, an in-line filter, and a sight
glass/moisture indicator, the flow is split between the motor
cooling and oil cooling systems.

LUBRICATION CYCLE

cooler heat exchanger. The oil cooler uses refrigerant from the
condenser as the coolant. The refrigerant cools the oil to a temperature between 120 and 140 F (49 to 60 C).
As the oil leaves the oil cooler, it passes the oil pressure
transducer and the thermal bulb for the refrigerant expansion
valve on the oil cooler. The oil is then divided. Part of the oil
flows to the thrust bearing, forward pinion bearing, and gear
spray. The rest of the oil lubricates the motor shaft bearings and
the rear pinion bearing. The oil temperature is measured in the
bearing housing as it leaves the thrust and forward journal
bearings. The oil then drains into the oil reservoir at the base of
the compressor. The PIC II (Product Integrated Control II)
measures the temperature of the oil in the sump and maintains
the temperature during shutdown (see Oil Sump Temperature
Control section, page 36). This temperature is read on the
CVC/ICVC default screen.
During the chiller start-up, the PIC II energizes the oil pump
and provides 45 seconds of pre-lubrication to the bearings after
pressure is verified before starting the compressor. During
shutdown, the oil pump will run for 60 seconds to postlubricate after the compressor shuts down. The oil pump can
also be energized for testing purposes during a Control Test.
Ramp loading can slow the rate of guide vane opening to
minimize oil foaming at start-up. If the guide vanes open
quickly, the sudden drop in suction pressure can cause any refrigerant in the oil to flash. The resulting oil foam cannot be
pumped efficiently; therefore, oil pressure falls off and lubrication is poor. If oil pressure falls below 15 psid (103 kPad) differential, the PIC II will shut down the compressor.
If the controls are subject to a power failure that lasts more
than 3 hours, the oil pump will be energized periodically when
the power is restored. This helps to eliminate refrigerant that
has migrated to the oil sump during the power failure. The controls energize the pump for 60 seconds every 30 minutes until
the chiller is started.

Summary — The oil pump, oil filter, and oil cooler make

Oil Reclaim System — The oil reclaim system returns

Flow to the motor cooling system passes through an orifice
and into the motor. Once past the orifice, the refrigerant is
directed over the motor by a spray nozzle. The refrigerant
collects in the bottom of the motor casing and is then drained
back into the cooler through the motor refrigerant drain line.
An orifice (in the motor shell) maintains a higher pressure in
the motor shell than in the cooler. The motor is protected by a
temperature sensor imbedded in the stator windings. An
increase in motor winding temperature past the motor override
set point overrides the temperature capacity control to hold,
and if the motor temperature rises 10° F (5.5° C) above this set
point, closes the inlet guide vanes. If the temperature rises
above the safety limit, the compressor shuts down.
Refrigerant that flows to the oil cooling system is regulated
by thermostatic expansion valves (TXVs). The TXVs regulate
flow into the oil/refrigerant plate and frame-type heat exchanger (the oil cooler in Fig. 3). The expansion valve bulbs control
oil temperature to the bearings. The refrigerant leaving the oil
cooler heat exchanger returns to the chiller cooler.

VFD COOLING CYCLE
The unit-mounted variable frequency drive (VFD) is cooled
in a manner similar to the motor and lubricating oil cooling
cycle (Fig. 3).
If equipped with a unit-mounted VFD, the refrigerant line
that feeds the motor cooling and oil cooler also feeds the heat
exchanger on the unit-mounted VFD. Refrigerant is metered
through a thermostatic expansion valve (TXV). To maintain
proper operating temperature in the VFD, the TXV bulb is
mounted to the heat exchanger to regulate the flow of refrigerant. The refrigerant leaving the heat exchanger returns to the
cooler.

up a package located partially in the transmission casing of the
compressor-motor assembly. The oil is pumped into a filter
assembly to remove foreign particles and is then forced into an
oil cooler heat exchanger where the oil is cooled to proper
operational temperatures. After the oil cooler, part of the flow
is directed to the gears and the high speed shaft bearings; the
remaining flow is directed to the motor shaft bearings. Oil
drains into the transmission oil sump to complete the cycle
(Fig. 4).

oil lost from the compressor housing back to the oil reservoir
by recovering the oil from 2 areas on the chiller. The guide
vane housing is the primary area of recovery. Oil is also recovered by skimming it from the operating refrigerant level in the
cooler vessel.
PRIMARY OIL RECOVERY MODE — Oil is normally recovered through the guide vane housing on the chiller. This is
possible because oil is normally entrained with refrigerant in
the chiller. As the compressor pulls the refrigerant up from the
cooler into the guide vane housing to be compressed, the oil
normally drops out at this point and falls to the bottom of the
guide vane housing where it accumulates. Using discharge gas
pressure to power an eductor, the oil is drawn from the housing
and is discharged into the oil reservoir.
SECONDARY OIL RECOVERY METHOD — The secondary method of oil recovery is significant under light load
conditions, when the refrigerant going up to the compressor
suction does not have enough velocity to bring oil along. Under
these conditions, oil collects in a greater concentration at the
top level of the refrigerant in the cooler. This oil and refrigerant
mixture is skimmed from the side of the cooler and is then
drawn up to the guide vane housing. There is a filter in this line.
Because the guide vane housing pressure is much lower than
the cooler pressure, the refrigerant boils off, leaving the oil behind to be collected by the primary oil recovery method.

Details — Oil is charged into the lubrication system through
a hand valve. Two sight glasses in the oil reservoir permit oil
level observation. Normal oil level is between the middle of the
upper sight glass and the top of the lower sight glass when the
compressor is shut down. The oil level should be visible in at
least one of the 2 sight glasses during operation. Oil sump temperature is displayed on the CVC/ICVC (Chiller Visual Controller/International Chiller Visual Controller) default screen.
During compressor operation, the oil sump temperature ranges
between 125 to 150 F (52 to 66 C).
The oil pump suction is fed from the oil reservoir. An oil
pressure relief valve maintains 18 to 25 psid (124 to172 kPad)
differential pressure in the system at the pump discharge. This
differential pressure can be read directly from the CVC/ICVC
default screen. The oil pump discharges oil to the oil filter assembly. This filter can be closed to permit removal of the filter
without draining the entire oil system (see Maintenance sections, pages 71 to 75, for details). The oil is then piped to the oil

Carrier’s Replacement Component Division [RCD]).

STARTING EQUIPMENT
The 19XR requires a motor starter to operate the centrifugal
hermetic compressor motor, the oil pump, and various auxiliary equipment. The starter is the main field wiring interface for
the contractor.
See Carrier Specification Z-415 for specific starter requirements, Z-416 for free-standing VFD requirements and Z-417
for unit-mounted VFD requirements. All starters must meet
these specifications in order to properly start and satisfy mechanical safety requirements. Starters may be supplied as separate, free-standing units or may be mounted directly on the
chiller (unit mounted) for low voltage units only.
Three separate circuit breakers are inside the starter. Circuit
breaker CB1 is the compressor motor circuit breaker. The disconnect switch on the starter front cover is connected to this
breaker. Circuit breaker CB1 supplies power to the compressor
motor.

Unit-Mounted Solid-State Starter (Optional) —
The 19XR chiller may be equipped with a solid-state, reducedvoltage starter (Fig. 5 and 6). This starter’s primary function is
to provide on-off control of the compressor motor. This type of
starter reduces the peak starting torque, reduces the motor inrush current, and decreases mechanical shock. This capability
is summed up by the phrase “soft starting.” The solid-state
starter is available as a 19XR option (factory supplied and installed). The solid-state starters manufacturer name is located
inside the starter access door.
A solid-state, reduced-voltage starter operates by reducing
the starting voltage. The starting torque of a motor at full voltage is typically 125% to 175% of the running torque. When the
voltage and the current are reduced at start-up, the starting
torque is reduced as well. The object is to reduce the starting
voltage to just the voltage necessary to develop the torque required to get the motor moving. The voltage is reduced by silicon controlled rectifiers (SCRs). The voltage and current are
then ramped up in a desired period of time. Once full voltage is
reached, a bypass contactor is energized to bypass the SCRs.

The main circuit breaker (CB1) on the front of the starter
disconnects the main motor current only. Power is still
energized for the other circuits. Two more circuit breakers
inside the starter must be turned off to disconnect power to
the oil pump, PIC II controls, and oil heater.
Circuit breaker CB2 supplies power to the control panel, oil
heater, and portions of the starter controls.
Circuit breaker CB3 supplies power to the oil pump. Both
CB2 and CB3 are wired in parallel with CB1 so that power is
supplied to them if the CB1 disconnect is open.
All starters must include a Carrier control module called the
Integrated Starter Module (ISM), excluding the Benshaw

When voltage is supplied to the solid-state circuitry (CB1
is closed), the heat sinks in the starter as well as the wires
leading to the motor and the motor terminal are at line voltage. Do not touch the heat sinks, power wiring, or motor
terminals while voltage is present or serious injury will
result.

There is a display on the front of the Benshaw, Inc., solidstate starters that is useful for troubleshooting and starter
checkout. The display indicates:
• voltage to the SCRs
• SCR control voltage
• power indication
• proper phasing for rotation
• start circuit energized
• over-temperature
• ground fault
• current unbalance
• run state
• software configuration

The 19XR chiller may be equipped with a wye-delta starter
mounted on the unit. This starter is used with low-voltage motors (under 600 v). It reduces the starting 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. Once the motor is up to speed, the
starter automatically connects the phase windings into a delta
configuration. Starter control, monitoring, and motor protection is provided by Carrier’s Integrated Starter Module (ISM).

Unit-Mounted VFD (Optional) — The 19XRV unit
will be equipped with a variable frequency drive motor controller mounted on the unit. See Fig. 7 and 8. This VFD is used
with low voltage motors between 380 and 480 VAC. It reduces
the starting current inrush by controlling the voltage and frequency to the compressor motor. Once the motor has accelerated to minimum speed the PIC II modulates the compressor
speed and guide vane position to control chilled water temperature. The VFD is further explained in the Controls section and
Troubleshooting Guide section, pages 10 and 76.
There is a separate display located on the unit-mounted
VFD. Operational parameters and fault codes are displayed relative to the drive. Refer to specific drive literature along with
troubleshooting sections. The display is also the interface for
entering specific chiller operational parameters. These parameters have been preprogrammed at the factory. An adhesive
backed label on the inside of the drive has been provided for
verification of the specific job parameters. See Initial Start-Up
Checklist section for details.

General — The 19XR hermetic centrifugal liquid chiller
contains a microprocessor-based control center that monitors
and controls all operations of the chiller (see Fig. 9). The
microprocessor control system matches the cooling capacity of
the chiller to the cooling load while providing state-of-the-art
chiller protection. The system controls cooling load within the
set point plus the deadband by sensing the leaving chilled water
or brine temperature and regulating the inlet guide vane via a
mechanically linked actuator motor. The guide vane is a variable flow pre-whirl assembly that controls the refrigeration effect in the cooler by regulating the amount of refrigerant vapor
flow into the compressor. An increase in guide vane opening
increases capacity. 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 diagnose a
problem and let the operator know what the problem 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 cooling tower fans to
turn them on when required. It continually checks all safeties to
prevent any unsafe operating condition. 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 compressor motor and controls the motor starter.

ground fault, remote start contact, spare safety, condenser high
pressure, oil pump interlock, starter 1M, and run contacts. The
ISM contains logic capable of safety shutdown. It shuts down
the chiller if communications with the CVC/ICVC are lost.
The ISM can also act as the interface for PIC II to the VFD
controller.
CHILLER CONTROL MODULE (CCM) — This module is
located in the control panel. The CCM provides the input and
outputs necessary to control the chiller. This module monitors
refrigerant pressure, entering and leaving water temperatures,
and outputs control for the guide vane actuator, oil heaters, and
oil pump. The CCM is the connection point for optional demand limit, chilled water reset, remote temperature reset, refrigerant leak sensor and motor kilowatt output.
OIL HEATER CONTACTOR (1C) — This contactor is located in the power panel (Fig. 13) and operates the heater at
either 115 or 230 v. It is controlled by the PIC II to maintain oil
temperature during chiller shutdown. The XR4 with split ring
diffuser has a line voltage oil heater. Refer to the control panel
wiring schematic.
OIL PUMP CONTACTOR (2C) — This contactor is located
in the power panel. It operates all 200 to 575-v oil pumps.
The PIC II energizes the contactor to turn on the oil pump as
necessary.
HOT GAS BYPASS CONTACTOR RELAY (3C)
(Optional) — This relay, located in the power panel, controls
the opening of the hot gas bypass valve. The PIC II energizes
the relay during low load, high lift conditions.
CONTROL TRANSFORMERS (T1, T2) — These transformers convert incoming control voltage to 24 vac power for the
3 power panel contactor relays, CCM, and CVC/ICVC.
OPTIONAL TRANSFORMER (T3) — This transformer provides control power to Dataport™/DataLINK™ modules.

The PIC II can interface with the Carrier Comfort Network
(CCN) if desired. It can communicate with other PIC I or PIC
II equipped chillers and other CCN devices.
The PIC II consists of 3 modules housed inside 3 major
components. The component names and corresponding control
voltages are listed below (also see Table 1):
• control panel
— all extra low-voltage wiring (24 v or less)
• power panel
— 230 or 115 v control voltage (per job requirement)
— up to 600 v for oil pump power
• starter cabinet
— chiller power wiring (per job requirement)

CHILLER VISUAL CONTROLLER (CVC) — The CVC is
the “brain” of the PIC II. This module contains all the operating
software needed to control the chiller. The CVC is mounted to
the control panel (Fig. 12) and is the input center for all local
chiller set points, schedules, configurable functions, and options. The CVC has a stop button, an alarm light, four buttons
for logic inputs, and a backlight display. The backlight will automatically turn off after 15 minutes of non-use. The functions
of the four buttons or “softkeys” are menu driven and are
shown on the display directly above the softkeys.
The viewing angle of the CVC can be adjusted for optimum
viewing. Remove the 2 bolts connecting the control panel to
the brackets attached to the cooler. Place them in one of the
holes to pivot the control panel forward to backward to change
the viewing angle. See Fig. 12. To change the contrast of the
display, access the adjustment on the back of the CVC. See
Fig. 12.
INTERNATIONAL CHILLER VISUAL CONTROLLER
(ICVC) — Incorporates all of the functions and operating software of the CVC with the added feature of 4 factory programmed languages:
English (default)
Chinese
Japanese
Korean
NOTE: Pressing any one of the four softkey buttons will activate the backlight display without implementing a softkey
function.
INTEGRATED STARTER MODULE (ISM) — This module is located in the starter cabinet. This module initiates commands from the CVC/ICVC for starter functions such as starting and stopping the compressor, condenser, chilled water
pumps, tower fan, spare alarm contacts, and the shunt trip. The
ISM monitors starter inputs such as line voltage, motor current,

GENERAL
• The CVC/ICVC display automatically reverts to the
default screen after 15 minutes if no softkey activity
takes place and if the chiller is not in the pumpdown
mode (Fig. 14).
• If a screen other than the default screen is displayed on
the CVC/ICVC, the name of that screen is in the upper
right corner (Fig. 15).
• The CVC/ICVC may be set to display either English or
SI units. Use the CVC/ICVC configuration screen
(accessed from the Service menu) to change the units.
See the Service Operation section, page 45.
• Local Operation — The PIC II can be placed in local
operating mode by pressing the LOCAL softkey. The
PIC II then accepts commands from the CVC/ICVC only
and uses the Local Time Schedule to determine chiller
start and stop times.
• CCN Operation — The PIC II can be placed in the CCN
operating mode by pressing the CCN softkey. The PIC
II then accepts modifications from any CCN interface or
module (with the proper authority), as well as from the
CVC/ICVC. The PIC II uses the CCN time schedule to
determine start and stop times.
ALARMS AND ALERTS — An alarm shuts down the compressor. An alert does not shut down the compressor, but it notifies the operator that an unusual condition has occurred. An
alarm (*) or alert (!) is indicated on the STATUS screens on the
far right field of the CVC/ICVC display screen.
Alarms are indicated when the control center alarm light (!)
flashes. The primary alarm message is displayed on the default
screen. An additional, secondary message and troubleshooting
information are sent to the ALARM HISTORY table.
When an alarm is detected, the CVC/ICVC default screen
will freeze (stop updating) at the time of alarm. The freeze enables the operator to view the chiller conditions at the time of
alarm. The STATUS tables will show the updated information.
Once all alarms have been cleared (by pressing the RESET
softkey), the default CVC/ICVC screen will return to normal
operation.
CVC/ICVC MENU ITEMS — To perform any of the operations described below, the PIC II must be powered up and have
successfully completed its self test. The self test takes place automatically, after power-up.

display screen. The TARGET VFD SPEED can be manually
overridden by the operator from the COMPRESS screen. The
VFD MINIMUM SPEED, MAXIMUM SPEED, VFD GAIN
and INCREASE STEP can be viewed and modified in the
SETUP2 display screen. TARGET and ACTUAL VFD SPEED
can be viewed in the COMPRESS screen.
ECW CONTROL OPTION — If this option is enabled, the
PIC II uses the ENTERING CHILLED WATER temperature to
modulate the vanes instead of the LEAVING CHILLED
WATER temperature. The ECW CONTROL OPTION may be
viewed on the TEMP_CTL screen, which is accessed from the
EQUIPMENT SERVICE screen.
CONTROL POINT DEADBAND — This is the tolerance
range on the chilled water/brine temperature control point. If
the water temperature goes outside the CHILLED WATER
DEADBAND, the PIC II opens or closes the guide vanes until
the temperature is within tolerance. The PIC II may be configured with a 0.5 to 2 F (0.3 to 1.1 C) deadband. CHILLED
WATER DEADBAND may be viewed or modified on the
SETUP1 screen, which is accessed from the EQUIPMENT
SERVICE table.
For example, a 1° F (0.6° C) deadband setting controls the
water temperature within ±0.5° F (0.3° C) of the control point.
This may cause frequent guide vane movement if the chilled
water load fluctuates frequently. A value of 1° F (0.6° C) is the
default setting.
DIFFUSER CONTROL — On 19XR FRAME sizes 4 and
5 compressors equipped with a variable discharge diffuser, the
PIC II adjusts the diffuser actuator position (DIFFUSER
ACTUATOR on the COMPRESS screen) to correspond to the
actual guide vane position (ACTUAL GUIDE VANE POS on
the COMPRESS screen).
The diffuser control can be enabled or disabled from the
SETUP2 screen. See Table 2, Example 19. In addition, the diffuser and guide vane load points may be viewed and modified
from this screen. These points must be correct for the compressor size. The diffuser opening can be incremented from fully
open to completely closed. A 0% setting is fully open; a 100%
setting is completely closed. To obtain the proper settings for
Diffuser Control, contact a Carrier Engineering representative.
PROPORTIONAL BANDS AND GAIN — Proportional band
is the rate at which the guide vane position is corrected in proportion to how far the chilled water/brine temperature is from
the control point. Proportional gain determines how quickly the
guide vanes react to how quickly the temperature is moving
from the CONTROL POINT. The proportional bands and gain
may be viewed or modified from the SETUP2 screen, which is
accessed from the EQUIPMENT SERVICE table.
The Proportional Band — There are two response modes, one
for temperature response above the control point, the other for
the response below the control point.
The temperature response above the control point is called
the PROPORTIONAL INC BAND, and it can slow or quicken
guide vane response to chilled water/brine temperatures above
the DEADBAND. The PROPORTIONAL INC BAND can be
adjusted from a setting of 2 to 10; the default setting is 6.5.
The response below the control point is called the PROPORTIONAL DEC BAND, and it can slow or quicken the
guide vane response to chilled water temperature below the
deadband plus the control point. The PROPORTIONAL DEC
BAND can be adjusted on the CVC/ICVC from a setting of 2 to
10. The default setting is 6.0.
NOTE: Increasing either of these settings causes the guide
vanes to respond more slowly than they would at a lower
setting.

NOTE: Words not part of paragraph headings and printed in all
capital letters can be viewed on the CVC/ICVC (e.g., LOCAL,
CCN, RUNNING, ALARM, etc.). Words printed both in all
capital letters and italics can also be viewed on the CVC/ICVC
and are parameters (CONTROL MODE, TARGET GUIDE
VANE POS, etc.) with associated values (e.g., modes, temperatures, pressures, percentages, on, off, enable, disable, etc.).
Words printed in all capital letters and in a box represent softkeys on the CVC/ICVC (e.g., ENTER and EXIT ). See
Table 2 for examples of the type of information that can appear
on the CVC/ICVC screens. Figures 14-20 give an overview of
CVC/ICVC operations and menus.
CAPACITY CONTROL FIXED SPEED — The PIC II controls the chiller capacity by modulating the inlet guide vanes in
response to chilled water temperature deviation from the CONTROL POINT. The CONTROL POINT may be changed by a
CCN network device or is determined by the PIC II adding any
active chilled water reset to the SET POINT. The PIC II uses
the PROPORTIONAL INC (Increase) BAND, PROPORTIONAL DEC (Decrease) BAND, and the PROPORTIONAL
ECW (Entering Chilled Water) GAIN to determine how fast or
slow to respond. CONTROL POINT may be viewed or overridden from the MAINSTAT screen.
CAPACITY CONTROL VFD — The PIC II controls the
machine capacity by modulating the motor speed and inlet
guide vanes in response to chilled water temperature deviation
from the CONTROL POINT. The controller will maintain the
highest inlet guide vane setting at the lowest speed to maximize efficiency while avoiding surge. The CONTROL POINT
may be changed by a CCN network device or is determined by
the PIC II adding any active chilled water reset to the to the
SET POINT. CONTROL POINT may be viewed or overridden
from the MAINSTAT screen. The PIC II uses the PROPORTIONAL INC (Increase) BAND, PROP DEC (Decrease)
BAND, and the PROPORTIONAL ECW (Entering Chilled
Water) GAIN to determine how fast or slow it takes the system
to respond. The VFD GAIN allows for additional adjustment of
the VFD response. At start-up, the inlet guide vanes (IGV)
start in the closed position and the VFD ramps to its minimum
speed setting.
The PIC II controller then initiates the Capacity Control algorithm to maintain the chilled water temperature at the CONTROL POINT. During operation when the CONTROL POINT
is not met, the controller will establish a GUIDE VANE DELTA
which will either affect a percentage change to the GUIDE
VANES or the VFD TARGET SPEED. Any change that will be
made to the IGV position or the VFD SPEED will depend on
whether the GUIDE VANE DELTA is positive or negative, and
the status of the Surge Control Algorithm. The Surge Control
Algorithm determines if the chiller should operate in Normal
Mode or Surge Prevention Mode. The logic for how the IGV’s
and VFD SPEED will be affected by the GUIDE VANE DELTA and the Surge Control Algorithm can be seen below:

ICE BUILD mode, it uses Occupancy Schedule 02
(OCCPC02S). When the chiller is in CCN mode, it uses
Occupancy Schedule 03 (OCCPC03S).
The CCN SCHEDULE NUMBER is configured on the
NET_OPT display screen, accessed from the EQUIPMENT
CONFIGURATION table. See Table 2, Example 15. SCHEDULE NUMBER can be changed to any value from 03 to 99. If
this number is changed on the NET_OPT screen, the operator
must go to the ATTACH TO NETWORK DEVICE screen to
upload the new number into the SCHEDULE screen. See
Fig. 18.

The PROPORTIONAL ECW GAIN can be adjusted on the
CVC/ICVC display for values of 1, 2, or 3; the default setting
is 2. Increase this setting to increase guide vane response to a
change in entering chilled water temperature.
DEMAND LIMITING — The PIC II responds to the ACTIVE
DEMAND LIMIT set point by limiting the opening of the
guide vanes. It compares the ACTIVE DEMAND LIMIT set
point to the DEMAND LIMIT SOURCE (either the AVERAGE
LINE CURRENT or the MOTOR KW). Depending on how the
control is configured. DEMAND LIMIT SOURCE is on the
RAMP_DEM screen. The default source is the compressor
motor current.
CHILLER TIMERS — The PIC II maintains 2 run time
clocks, known as COMPRESSOR ONTIME and SERVICE
ONTIME. COMPRESSOR ONTIME indicates the total lifetime compressor run hours. This timer can register up to
500,000 hours before the clock turns back to zero. The SERVICE ONTIME is a reset table timer that can be used to indicate the hours since the last service visit or any other event.
The time can be changed from the CVC/ICVC to whatever
value is desired. This timer can register up to 32,767 hours
before it rolls over to zero.
The chiller also maintains a start-to-start timer and a stopto-start timer. These timers limit how soon the chiller can be
started. START INHIBIT TIMER is displayed on the MAINSTAT screen. See the Start-Up/Shutdown/Recycle Sequence
section, page 46, for more information on this topic.
OCCUPANCY SCHEDULE — The chiller schedule, described in the Time Schedule Operation section (page 20), determines when the chiller can run. Each schedule consists of
from 1 to 8 occupied or unoccupied time periods, set by the operator. The chiller can be started and run during an occupied
time period (when OCCUPIED? is set to YES on the MAINSTAT display screen). It cannot be started or run during an unoccupied time period (when OCCUPIED? is set to NO on the
MAINSTAT display screen). These time periods can be set for
each day of the week and for holidays. The day begins with
0000 hours and ends with 2400 hours. The default setting for
OCCUPIED? is YES, unless an unoccupied time period is in
effect.
These schedules can be set up to follow a building’s occupancy schedule, or the chiller can be set so to run 100% of the
time, if the operator wishes. The schedules also can be bypassed by forcing the CHILLER START/STOP parameter on
the MAINSTAT screen to START. For more information on
forced starts, see Local Start-Up, page 46.
The schedules also can be overridden to keep the chiller in
an occupied state for up to 4 hours, on a one time basis. See the
Time Schedule Operation section, page 20.
Figure 19 shows a schedule for a typical office building
with a 3-hour, off-peak, cool-down period from midnight to
3 a.m., following a weekend shutdown. Holiday periods are in
an unoccupied state 24 hours per day. The building operates
Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and Saturdays
from 6:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. This schedule also includes the
Monday midnight to 3:00 a.m. weekend cool-down schedule.
NOTE: This schedule is for illustration only and is not
intended to be a recommended schedule for chiller operation.
Whenever the chiller is in the LOCAL mode, it uses Occupancy Schedule 01 (OCCPC01S). When the chiller is in the

Safety Controls — The PIC II monitors all safety control
inputs and, if required, shuts down the chiller or limits the
guide vanes to protect the chiller from possible damage from
any of the following conditions:
• high bearing temperature
• high motor winding temperature
• high discharge temperature
• low discharge superheat*
• low oil pressure
• low cooler refrigerant temperature/pressure
• condenser high pressure or low pressure
• inadequate water/brine cooler and condenser flow
• high, low, or loss of voltage
• ground fault
• voltage imbalance
• current imbalance
• excessive motor acceleration time
• excessive starter transition time
• lack of motor current signal
• excessive motor amps
• excessive compressor surge
• temperature and transducer faults
*Superheat is the difference between saturation temperature
and sensible temperature. The high discharge temperature
safety measures only sensible temperature.
Starter faults or optional protective devices within the starter
can shut down the chiller. The protective devices you have for
your application depend on what options were purchased.

If compressor motor overload occurs, check the motor for
grounded or open phases before attempting a restart.
If the PIC II control initiates a safety shutdown, it displays
the reason for the shutdown (the fault) on the CVC/ICVC display screen along with a primary and secondary message, energizes an alarm relay in the starter, and blinks the alarm light on
the control panel. The alarm is stored in memory and can be
viewed on the ALARM HISTORY and ISM_HIST screens on
the CVC/ICVC, along with a message for troubleshooting. If
the safety shutdown was also initiated by a fault detected in the
motor starter, the conditions at the time of the fault will be
stored in ISM_HIST.
To give more precise information or warnings on the
chiller’s operating condition, the operator can define alert limits on various monitored inputs. Safety contact and alert limits
are defined in Table 3. Alarm and alert messages are listed in
the Troubleshooting Guide section, page 76.

Shunt Trip (Option) — The function of the shunt trip
option on the PIC II is to act as a safety trip. The shunt trip is
wired from an output on the ISM to a shunt trip equipped motor circuit breaker. If the PIC II tries to shut down the compressor using a normal shutdown procedure but is unsuccessful for
20 seconds, the shunt trip output is energized and causes the
circuit breaker to trip off. If ground fault protection has been
applied to the starter, the ground fault trip also energizes the
shunt trip to trip the circuit breaker. Protective devices in the
starter can also energize the shunt trip. The shunt trip feature
can be tested using the Control Test feature.

caused the alarm is remedied by the operator. Use CVC/ICVC
display and alarm shutdown record sheet (CL-13) to record all
values from default screen freeze.
Knowledge of the operating state of the chiller at the time an
alarm occurs is useful when troubleshooting. Additional chiller
information can be viewed on the status screens and the
ISM_HIST screen. Troubleshooting information is recorded in
the ALARM HISTORY table, which can be accessed from the
SERVICE menu.
To determine what caused the alarm, the operator should
read both the primary and secondary default screen messages,
as well as the alarm history. The primary message indicates the
most recent alarm condition. The secondary message gives
more detail on the alarm condition. Since there may be more
than one alarm condition, another alarm message may appear
after the first condition is cleared. Check the ALARM HISTORY screen for additional help in determining the reasons for the
alarms. Once all existing alarms are cleared (by pressing the
RESET softkey), the default CVC/ICVC display returns to
normal operation.

Default Screen Freeze — When the chiller is in an
alarm state, the default CVC/ICVC display “freezes,” that is, it
stops updating. The first line of the CVC/ICVC default screen
displays a primary alarm message; the second line displays a
secondary alarm message.
The CVC/ICVC default screen freezes to enable the operator to see the conditions of the chiller at the time of the alarm. If
the value in alarm is one normally displayed on the default
screen, it flashes between normal and reverse video. The CVC/
ICVC default screen remains frozen until the condition that

Ramp Loading — The ramp loading control slows down
the rate at which the compressor loads up. This control can prevent the compressor from loading up during the short period of
time when the chiller is started and the chilled water loop has to
be brought down to CONTROL POINT. This helps reduce
electrical demand charges by slowly bringing the chilled water
to CONTROL POINT. The total power draw during this period
remains almost unchanged.
There are two methods of ramp loading with the PIC II.
Ramp loading can be based on chilled water temperature or on
motor load. Either method is selected from the RAMP__DEM
screen.
1. Temperature ramp loading (TEMP PULLDOWN DEG/
MIN) limits the degrees per minute rate at which either
leaving chilled water or entering chilled water temperature decreases. This rate is configured by the operator on
the TEMP_CTL screen. The lowest temperature ramp
rate will also be used if chiller power has been off for
3 hours or more (even if the motor ramp load is selected
as the ramp loading method).
2. Motor load ramp loading (LOAD PULLDOWN) limits
the degrees per minute rate at which the compressor motor current or compressor motor load increases. The
LOAD PULLDOWN rate is configured by the operator
on the RAMP_DEM screen in amps or kilowatts. The
point name is MOTOR LOAD RAMP%/MIN.
If kilowatts is selected for the DEMAND LIMIT SOURCE,
the MOTOR RATED KILOWATTS must be entered (information found on the chiller Requisition form).
The TEMP PULLDOWN DEG/MIN may be viewed or
modified on the TEMP_CTL screen which is accessed from
the EQUIPMENT SERVICE screen. PULLDOWN RAMP
TYPE, DEMAND LIMIT SOURCE, and MOTOR LOAD
RAMP %/MIN may be viewed or modified on the
RAMP_DEM screen.

As part of the pre-start checks executed by the controls, the
oil sump temperature (OIL SUMP TEMP) is compared to the
cooler refrigerant temperature (EVAPORATOR REFRIG
TEMP). If the difference between these 2 temperatures is 50 F
(27.8 C) or less, the start-up will be delayed until the oil temperature is 50 F (27.8 C) or more. Once this temperature is confirmed, the start-up continues.
The oil heater relay is energized whenever the chiller compressor is off and the oil sump temperature is less than 140 F
(60.0 C) or the oil sump temperature is less than the cooler refrigerant temperature plus 53° F (11.7° C). The oil heater is
turned off when the oil sump temperature is either
• more than 152 F (66.7 C), or
• more than 142 F (61.1 C) and more than the cooler
refrigerant temperature plus 55° F (12.8° C).
The oil heater is always off during start-up or when the
compressor is running.
The oil pump is also energized during the time the oil is being heated (for 60 seconds at the end of every 30 minutes).

Oil Cooler — The oil must be cooled when the compressor is running. This is accomplished through a small, plate-type
heat exchanger (also called the oil cooler) located behind the
oil pump. The heat exchanger uses liquid condenser refrigerant
as the cooling liquid. Refrigerant thermostatic expansion
valves (TXVs) regulate refrigerant flow to control the oil temperature entering the bearings. The bulbs for the expansion
valves are strapped to the oil supply line leaving the heat exchanger, and the valves are set to maintain 110 F (43 C).
NOTE: The TXVs are not adjustable. The oil sump temperature may be at a lower temperature during compressor
operations.
Remote Start/Stop Controls — A remote device, such
as a timeclock that uses a set of contacts, may be used to start
and stop the chiller. However, the device should not be programmed to start and stop the chiller in excess of 2 or 3 times
every 12 hours. If more than 8 starts in 12 hours (the STARTS
IN 12 HOURS parameter on the MAINSTAT screen) occur, an
excessive starts alarm displays, preventing the chiller from
starting. The operator must press the RESET softkey on the
CVC/ICVC to override the starts counter and start the chiller.
If the chiller records 12 starts (excluding recycle starts) in a
sliding 12-hour period, it can be restarted only by pressing the
RESET softkey followed by the LOCAL or CCN softkey.
This ensures that, if the automatic system is malfunctioning,
the chiller will not repeatedly cycle on and off. If the automatic
restart after a power failure option (AUTO RESTART OPTION
on the OPTIONS screen) is not activated when a power failure
occurs, and if the remote contact is closed, the chiller will indicate an alarm because of the loss of voltage.
The contacts for remote start are wired into the starter at terminal strip J2, terminals 5 and 6 on the ISM. See the certified
drawings for further details on contact ratings. The contacts
must have 24 vac dry contact rating.

Capacity Override (Table 4) — Capacity overrides can
prevent some safety shutdowns caused by exceeding the motor
amperage limit, refrigerant low temperature safety limit, motor
high temperature safety limit, and condenser high pressure
limit. In all cases there are 2 stages of compressor vane control.
1. The vanes are prevented from opening further, and the
status line on the CVC/ICVC indicates the reason for the
override.
2. The vanes are closed until the condition decreases to below the first step set point. Then the vanes are released to
normal capacity control.
Whenever the motor current demand limit set point
(ACTIVE DEMAND LIMIT) is reached, it activates a capacity
override, again, with a 2-step process. Exceeding 110% of the
rated load amps for more than 30 seconds will initiate a safety
shutdown.
The compressor high lift (surge prevention) set point will
cause a capacity override as well. When the surge prevention
set point is reached, the controller normally will only prevent
the guide vanes from opening. If so equipped, the hot gas bypass valve will open instead of holding the vanes. See the
Surge Prevention Algorithm section, page 39.

inputs for additional field-supplied safeties may be wired to the
spare protective limits input channel in place of the factoryinstalled jumper. (Wire multiple inputs in series.) The opening
of any contact will result in a safety shutdown and a display on
the CVC/ICVC. Refer to the certified drawings for safety contact ratings.
Analog temperature sensors may also be added to the module (SPARE TEMP #1 and #2). The analog temperature sensors may be configured to cause an alert or alarm on the CCN
network. The alert will not shut the chiller down. Configuring
for alarm state will cause the chiller to shut down.

High Discharge Temperature Control — If the
discharge temperature increases above 160 F (71.1 C), the
guide vanes are proportionally opened to increase gas flow
through the compressor. If the leaving chilled water temperature is then brought 5° F (2.8° C) below the control set point
temperature, the PIC II will bring the chiller into the recycle
mode.

Oil Sump Temperature Control — The oil sump
temperature control is regulated by the PIC II, which uses the
oil heater relay when the chiller is shut down.

Alarm (Trip) Output Contacts — One set of alarm

Third party software from building automation systems (BAS)
or energy management systems (EMS) can also access the
PIC II controls through a Carrier DataLINK™ module and reset the fault displayed. Both methods would access the
CVC_PSWD/ICVC_PSWD screen and force the RESET
ALARM? point to YES to reset the fault condition. If the PIC II
controls have determined that is safe to start the chiller the
CCN MODE? point (CVC_PSWD/ICVC_PSWD screen) can
be forced to YES to place the chiller back into normal CCN operating mode. The only exceptions are the following alarms
that cannot be reset from a remote location: STATE #100, 205,
217-220, 223, 233, 234, 247, and 250. To view alarm codes, refer to Troubleshooting Guide, Checking Display Messages,
page 76. After the alarm has been reset the PIC II control will
increment the Starts in 12 Hours counter by one upon restart. If
the limit of 8 starts in a 12-hour period occurs the alarm will be
required to be reset at the chiller control panel (CVC/ICVC).

contacts is provided in the starter. The contact ratings are provided in the certified drawings. The contacts are located on terminal strip J9, terminals 15 and 16.

Refrigerant Leak Detector — An input is available
on the CCM module [terminal J5-5 (–) and J5-6 (+)] for a
refrigerant leak detector. Enabling REFRIGERANT LEAK
OPTION (OPTIONS screen) will allow the PIC II controls to
go into an alarm state at a user configured level (REFRIGERANT LEAK ALARM mA). The input is configured for 4 to
20 mA by setting the DIP switch 1 on SW2 at the ON position,
or configured for 1 to 5 vdc by setting switch 1 at the OFF position. The output of the refrigerant leak detector is displayed as
REFRIGERANT LEAK SENSOR on the MAINSTAT screen.
For a 1 to 5 vdc input, 1 vdc input represents 4 mA displayed
and 5 vdc input represents 20 mA displayed.
Kilowatt Output — An output is available on the CCM

Condenser Pump Control — The chiller will monitor the condenser pressure (CONDENSER PRESSURE) and
may turn on the condenser pump if the condenser pressure becomes too high while the compressor is shut down. The condenser pressure override (COND PRESS OVERRIDE) parameter is used to determine this pressure point. COND PRESS
OVERRIDE is found in the SETUP1 display screen, which is
accessed from the EQUIPMENT SERVICE table. The default
value is 125 psig (862 kPa).
If the CONDENSER PRESSURE is greater than or equal to
the COND PRESS OVERRIDE, and the entering condenser
water temperature (ENTERING CONDENSER WATER) is less
than 115 F (46 C), the condenser pump will energize to try to
decrease the pressure. The pump will turn off when the condenser pressure is 3.5 psi (24.1 kPa) less than the pressure override or when the condenser refrigerant temperature (CONDENSER REFRIG TEMP) is within 3° F (1.7° C) of the entering condenser water temperature (ENTERING CONDENSER
WATER).

module [Terminal J8-1 (+) and J8-2 (–)] to represent the power
consumption of the chiller. The 4 to 20 mA signal generated by
the CCM module can be wired to the building automation or
energy management system to monitor the chiller’s energy
consumption. A 4 mA signal represents the chiller in an off
state and a 20 mA signal represents the chiller operating at its
rated peak kilowatt consumption. The rated peak kilowatt consumption is configured by the user in the RAMP_DEM display
screen by the setting the MOTOR RATED KILOWATTS from
the job data sheet.

Remote Reset of Alarms — A standard feature of the
PIC II controls is the ability to reset a chiller in a shutdown
alarm state from a remote location. If the condition which
caused the alarm has cleared the chiller can be placed back into
a normal CCN operating mode when the REMOTE RESET
OPTION (CVC_PSWD/ICVC_PSWD menu) is set to ENABLE. A variety of Carrier Comfort Network software systems including ComfortVIEW™ or Network Service Tool™
can access the PIC II controls and reset the displayed alarm.

Condenser Freeze Prevention — This control algo-

rithm helps prevent condenser tube freeze-up by energizing the
condenser pump relay. The PIC II controls the pump and, by
starting it, helps to prevent the water in the condenser from
freezing. The PIC II can perform this function whenever the
chiller is not running except when it is either actively in pumpdown or in pumpdown/lockout with the freeze prevention
disabled.
When the CONDENSER REFRIG TEMP is less than or
equal to the CONDENSER FREEZE POINT, the CONDENSER WATER PUMP is energized until the CONDENSER REFRIG TEMP is greater than the CONDENSER FREEZE
POINT plus 5° F (2.7° C) and the ENTERING CONDENSER
WATER TEMPERATURE is less than or equal to the CONDENSER FREEZE POINT. An alarm is generated if the chiller
is in PUMPDOWN mode and the pump is energized. An alert
is generated if the chiller is not in PUMPDOWN mode and the
pump is energized. If the chiller is in RECYCLE SHUTDOWN mode, the mode will transition to a non-recycle
shutdown.

IMPORTANT: A field-supplied water temperature control
system for condenser water should be installed. The system
should maintain the leaving condenser water temperature
at a temperature that is 20° F (11° C) above the leaving
chilled water temperature.

The tower fan relay control is not a substitute for a condenser water temperature control. When used with a water
temperature control system, the tower fan relay control can
be used to help prevent low condenser water temperatures.

Auto. Restart After Power Failure — This option
may be enabled or disabled and may be viewed or modified on
the OPTIONS screen, which is accessed from the EQUIPMENT CONFIGURATION table. If the AUTO. RESTART
OPTION is enabled, the chiller will start up automatically after a
power failure has occurred (after a single cycle dropout; low,
high, or loss of voltage; and the power is within ± 15% of normal). The 15- and 5-minute inhibit timers are ignored during this
type of start-up.
When power is restored after the power failure and if the
compressor had been running, the oil pump will energize for
one minute before energizing the cooler pump. AUTO.
RESTART will then continue like a normal start-up.
If power to the CVC/ICVC module has been off for more
than 3 hours or the timeclock has been set for the first time,
start the compressor with the slowest temperature-based ramp
load rate possible in order to minimize oil foaming.
The oil pump is energized occasionally during the time the
oil is being brought up to proper temperature in order to eliminate refrigerant that has migrated to the oil sump during the
power failure. The pump turns on for 60 seconds at the end of
every 30-minute period until the chiller is started.

Evaporator Freeze Protection (ICVC only) — A
refrigerant temperature sensor is installed at the bottom of the
cooler to provide redundant freeze protection. In place of the
cooler and condenser water pressure transducer inputs on the
CCM is a 4.3k ohm resister and a jumper lead. When the
EVAPORATOR REFRIGERANT TEMPERATURE is less
than the EVAP REFRIG TRIPPOINT plus the REFRIG
OVERRIDE DELTA T (configurable from 2° to 5°), state 122
will be displayed and a capacity override will occur. If the
EVAPORATOR REFRIG TEMP is equal to or less than the
EVAP Refrig TRIPPOINT, Protective Limit ALARM STATE
232 will be displayed and the unit will shut down.
Tower Fan Relay Low and High — Low condenser
water temperature can cause the chiller to shut down when refrigerant temperature is low. The tower fan relays, located in
the starter, are controlled by the PIC II to energize and deenergize as the pressure differential between cooler and condenser
vessels changes. This prevents low condenser water temperature and maximizes chiller efficiency. The tower fan relay can
only accomplish this if the relay has been added to the cooling
tower temperature controller.
The tower fan relay low is turned on whenever the condenser water pump is running, flow is verified, and the difference
between cooler and condenser pressure is more than 30 psid
(207 kPad) for entering condenser water temperature greater
than 65 F (18.3 C).
The tower fan relay low is turned off when the condenser
pump is off, flow is stopped, or the cooler refrigerant temperature is less than the override temperature for ENTERING CONDENSER WATER temperature less than 62 F (16.7 C), or the
differential pressure is less than 25 psid (172.4 kPad) for entering condenser water less than 80 F (27 C).
The tower fan relay high is turned on whenever the
condenser water pump is running, flow is verified and the difference between cooler and condenser pressure is more than
35 psid (241.3 kPa) for entering condenser water temperature
greater than the TOWER FAN HIGH SETPOINT (SETPOINT
menu, default 75 F [23.9 C]).
The tower fan relay high is turned off when the condenser
pump is off, flow is stopped, or the cooler refrigerant temperature is less than the override temperature and ENTERING
CONDENSER WATER is less than 70 F (21.1 C), or the difference between cooler and condenser pressure is less than
28 Psid (193 kPa), or ENTERING CONDENSER WATER
temperature is less than TOWER FAN HIGH SETPOINT
minus 3 F (–16.1 C).

Water/Brine Reset — Three types of chilled water or
brine reset are available and can be viewed or modified on the
TEMP_CTL screen, which is accessed from the EQUIPMENT
SERVICE table.
The CVC/ICVC default screen indicates when the chilled
water reset is active. TEMPERATURE RESET on the MAINSTAT screen indicates the amount of reset. The CONTROL
POINT will be determined by adding the TEMPERATURE
RESET to the SETPOINT.
To activate a reset type, access the TEMP_CTL screen and
input all configuration information for that reset type. Then, input the reset type number (1, 2, or 3) in the SELECT/ENABLE
RESET TYPE input line.
RESET TYPE 1: 4 to 20 mA (1 to 5 vdc) TEMPERATURE
RESET — Reset Type 1 is an automatic chilled water temperature reset based on a remote temperature sensor input configured for either an externally powered 4 to 20 mA or a 1 to
5 vdc signal. Reset Type 1 permits up to ±30 F (±16 C) of
automatic reset to the chilled water set point.
The auto, chilled water reset is hardwired to terminals
J5-3 (–) and J5-4 (+) on the CCM. Switch setting number 2 on
SW2 will determine the type of input signal. With the switch
set at the ON position the input is configured for an externally
powered 4 to 20 mA signal. With the switch in the OFF position the input is configured for an external 1 to 5 vdc signal.
RESET TYPE 2: REMOTE TEMPERATURE RESET —
Reset Type 2 is an automatic chilled water temperature reset
based on a remote temperature sensor input signal. Reset Type
2 permits ± 30° F (± 16° C) of automatic reset to the set point
based on a temperature sensor wired to the CCM module

The state of the surge/hot gas bypass algorithm on the
HEAT_EX DISPLAY SCREEN (Surge/HGBP Active?).
Corrective action can be taken by making one of 2 choices.
If a hot gas bypass line is present and the hot gas option is
selected on the OPTIONS table (SURGE LIMIT/HGBP
OPTION is set to 1), the hot gas bypass valve can be energized.
If the hot gas bypass option is not selected (SURGE LIMIT/
HGBP OPTION is set to 0), hold the guide vanes. See Table 4,

(see wiring diagrams or certified drawings). The temperature
sensor must be wired to terminal J4-13 and J4-14. To configure
Reset Type 2, enter the temperature of the remote sensor at the
point where no temperature reset will occur (REMOTE TEMP
–> NO RESET). Next, enter the temperature at which the full
amount of reset will occur (REMOTE TEMP –> FULL
RESET). Then, enter the maximum amount of reset required to
operate the chiller (DEGREES RESET). Reset Type 2 can now
be activated.
RESET TYPE 3 — Reset Type 3 is an automatic chilled water
temperature reset based on cooler temperature difference.
Reset Type 3 adds ± 30° F (± 16° C) based on the temperature
difference between the entering and leaving chilled water
temperature.
To configure Reset Type 3, enter the chilled water temperature difference (the difference between entering and leaving
chilled water) at which no temperature reset occurs (CHW
DELTA T –> NO RESET). This chilled water temperature difference is usually the full design load temperature difference.
Next, enter the difference in chilled water temperature at which
the full amount of reset occurs (CHW DELTA T –> FULL RESET). Finally, enter the amount of reset (DEGREES RESET).
Reset Type 3 can now be activated.

Demand Limit Control Option — The demand limit
control option (20 mA DEMAND LIMIT OPT) is externally
controlled by a 4 to 20 mA or 1 to 5 vdc signal from an energy
management system (EMS). The option is set up on the
RAMP_DEM screen. When enabled, 4 mA is the 100% demand set point with an operator-configured minimum demand
at a 20 mA set point (DEMAND LIMIT AT 20 mA).
The auto. demand limit is hardwired to terminals J5-1 (–)
and J5-2 (+) on the CCM. Switch setting number 1 on SW2
will determine the type of input signal. With the switch set at
the ON position the input is configured for an externally powered 4 to 20 mA signal. With the switch in the OFF position the
input is configured for an external 1 to 5 vdc signal.

Surge Prevention Algorithm (Fixed Speed
Chiller) — This is an operator-configurable feature that can

∆T = (ECW) – (LCW)

determine if lift conditions are too high for the compressor and
then take corrective action. Lift is defined as the difference between the pressure at the impeller eye and at the impeller
discharge. The maximum lift a particular impeller wheel can
perform varies with the gas flow across the impeller and the
size of the wheel.
A surge condition occurs when the lift becomes so high the
gas flow across the impeller reverses. This condition can eventually cause chiller damage. The surge prevention 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 corrective 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. 21 and 22. 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 between 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 deadband region, the algorithm takes no action. When the point defined by the ACTIVE
DELTA P and ACTIVE DELTA T, moves from the region

Surge Prevention Algorithm with VFD — This is
an operator configurable feature that can determine if lift conditions are too high for the compressor and then take corrective
action. Lift is defined as the difference between the pressure at
the impeller eye and at the impeller discharge. The maximum
lift a particular impeller wheel can perform varies with the gas
flow through the impeller and the diameter of the impeller.
A surge condition occurs when the lift becomes so high the
gas flow across the impeller reverses. This condition can eventually cause chiller damage. When enabled, the Surge Prevention Algorithm will adjust either the inlet guide vane (IGV)
position or compressor speed to maintain the compressor at a
safe distance from surge while maintaining machine efficiency.
If the surge condition degrades then the algorithm will move
aggressively away from surge. This condition can be identified
when the SURGE/HGBP ACTIVE? on the HEAT_EX display
screen displays a YES.
The surge prevention algorithm first determines if corrective action is necessary. The algorithm checks two sets of
operator-configured data points, the lower surge point (MIN.
LOAD POINT [T1,P1]) and the upper surge point (FULL
LOAD POINT [T2,P2]). The surge characteristics vary between different chiller configurations and operating conditions.
The surge characteristics are factory set based on the original
selection with the values displayed inside the control panel of
the chiller. Since operating conditions may affect the surge prevention algorithm, some field adjustments may be necessary.
The surge prevention algorithm function and settings are
graphically displayed on Fig. 21 and 22. 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 for the particular maximum operating speed. When the
actual differential pressure between the cooler and condenser
and the temperature difference between the entering and leaving chilled water are above the line on the graph (as defined by
the minimum and full load points), the algorithm operates in
Surge Prevention mode. This is determined when the ACTIVE
DELTA T is less than SURGE/HGBP DELTA T minus the
deadband.
When in Surge Prevention mode, with a command to increase capacity, the VFD speed will increase until maximum
VFD speed is reached. At VFD MAXIMUM SPEED, when Capacity still needs to increase, the IGV’s open. When in Surge
Prevention mode, with a command to decrease capacity only
the IGVs will close.

Surge Protection (Fixed Speed Chiller) — The
PIC II monitors surge, which is a fluctuation in compressor
motor amperage. Each time the fluctuation exceeds an
operator-specified limit (SURGE DELTA % AMPS), the PIC II
counts the surge. If more than 5 surges occur within an
operator-specified time (SURGE TIME PERIOD), the PIC II
initiates a surge protection shutdown of the chiller.
The surge limit can be adjusted from the OPTIONS screen.
Scroll down to the SURGE DELTA % AMPS parameter, and
use the INCREASE or DECREASE softkey to adjust the
percent of surge. The default setting is 10% amps.
The surge time period can also be adjusted from the
OPTIONS screen. Scroll to the SURGE TIME PERIOD
parameter, and use the INCREASE or DECREASE softkey
to adjust the amount of time. The default setting is 8 minutes.
Access the display screen (COMPRESS) to monitor the
surge count (SURGE PROTECTION COUNTS).
HEAD PRESSURE REFERENCE OUTPUT (See
Fig. 23) — The PIC II control outputs a 4 to 20 mA signal for
the configurable Delta P (condenser pressure minus evaporator
pressure) reference curve shown in Fig. 23. An output is available on the ISM module [Terminal J8 (+), J8 (–) labeled spare].
For chillers with Benshaw Inc. solid-state starters terminal strip
labeled J8 (+), J8 (–) located next to the RediStart MICRO™
input/output card is provided. The Delta P at 100% (chiller at
maximum load condition default at 35 psi), DELTA P AT 0%
(chiller at minimum load condition default at 25 psi) and MINIMUM OUTPUT points are configurable in the EQUIPMENT
SERVICE-OPTIONS table. When configuring this output ensure that minimum requirements for oil pressure and proper
condenser FLASC orifice performance are maintained. The 4
to 20 mA output can be used as a reference to control a
tower bypass valve, tower speed control, or condenser pump
speed control.
Lead/Lag Control — The lead/lag control system automatically starts and stops a lag or second chiller in a 2-chiller
water system. A third chiller can be added to the lead/lag system as a standby chiller to start up in case the lead or lag chiller
in the system has shut down during an alarm condition and additional cooling is required. Refer to Fig. 17 and 18 for menu,
table, and screen selection information.

Surge Protection VFD Units — The PIC II monitors
surge, which is detected as a fluctuation in compressor motor
amperage. Each time the fluctuation exceeds an operatorspecified limit (SURGE DELTA % AMPS), the PIC II registers
a surge protection count. If more than 5 surges occur within an
operator-specified time (SURGE TIME PERIOD), the PIC II
initiates a surge protection shutdown of the chiller.
On VFD units, if a surge count is registered and if ACTUAL
VFD SPEED is less than VFD MAXIMUM SPEED then motor
speed will be increased by the configured VFD increase step.
While the SURGE PROTECTION COUNTS are >0, a speed
decrease will not be honored.

LEAD/LAG OPERATION — The PIC II not only has the
ability to operate 2 chillers in lead/lag, but it can also start a
designated standby chiller when either the lead or lag chiller is
faulted and capacity requirements are not met. The lead/lag option only operates when the chillers are in CCN mode. If any
other chiller configured for lead/lag is set to the LOCAL or
OFF modes, it will be unavailable for lead/lag operation.
Lead/Lag Chiller Configuration and Operation
• A chiller is designated the lead chiller when its
LEADLAG: CONFIGURATION value on the LEADLAG screen is set to “1.”
• A chiller is designated the lag chiller when its
LEADLAG: CONFIGURATION value is set to “2.”
• A chiller is designated as a standby chiller when its
LEADLAG: CONFIGURATION value is set to “3.”
• A value of “0” disables the lead/lag designation of a
chiller.
To configure the LAG ADDRESS value on the LEADLAG
screen, always enter the address of the other chiller on the system. For example, if you are configuring chiller A, enter the address for chiller B as the lag address. If you are configuring
chiller B, enter the address for chiller A as the lag address. This
makes it easier to rotate the lead and lag chillers.
If the address assignments in the LAG ADDRESS and
STANDBY ADDRESS parameters conflict, the lead/lag function is disabled and an alert (!) message displays. For example,
if the LAG ADDRESS matches the lead chiller’s address, the
lead/lag will be disabled and an alert (!) message displayed.
The lead/lag maintenance screen (LL_MAINT) displays the
message ‘INVALID CONFIG’ in the LEADLAG: CONFIGURATION and CURRENT MODE fields.
The lead chiller responds to normal start/stop controls such
as the occupancy schedule, a forced start or stop, and remote
start contact inputs. After completing start-up and ramp loading, the PIC II evaluates the need for additional capacity. If additional capacity is needed, the PIC II initiates the start-up of
the chiller configured at the LAG ADDRESS. If the lag chiller
is faulted (in alarm) or is in the OFF or LOCAL modes, the
chiller at the STANDBY ADDRESS (if configured) is requested
to start. After the second chiller is started and is running, the
lead chiller monitors conditions and evaluates whether the capacity has been reduced enough for the lead chiller to sustain
the system alone. If the capacity is reduced enough for the lead
chiller to sustain the CONTROL POINT temperatures alone,
then the operating lag chiller is stopped.
If the lead chiller is stopped in CCN mode for any reason
other than an alarm (*) condition, the lag and standby chillers
are also stopped. If the configured lead chiller stops for an
alarm condition, the configured lag chiller takes the lead chiller’s place as the lead chiller, and the standby chiller serves as
the lag chiller.
If the configured lead chiller does not complete the start-up
before the PRESTART FAULT TIMER (a user-configured
value) elapses, then the lag chiller starts and the lead chiller
shuts down. The lead chiller then monitors the start request
from the acting lead chiller. The PRESTART FAULT TIMER is
initiated at the time of a start request. The PRESTART FAULT
TIMER provides a timeout if there is a prestart alert condition
that prevents the chiller from starting in a timely manner. The
PRESTART FAULT TIMER parameter is on the LEADLAG
screen, which is accessed from the EQUIPMENT SERVICE
table of the SERVICE menu.
If the lag chiller does not achieve start-up before the PRESTART FAULT TIMER elapses, the lag chiller stops, and the
standby chiller is requested to start, if configured and ready.

NOTE: The lead/lag function can be configured on the LEADLAG screen, which is accessed from the SERVICE menu and
EQUIPMENT SERVICE table. See Table 2, Example 20.
Lead/lag status during chiller operation can be viewed on the
LL_MAINT display screen, which is accessed from the SERVICE menu and CONTROL ALGORITHM STATUS table.
See Table 2, Example 12.
Lead/Lag System Requirements:
• all chillers in the system must have software capable of
performing the lead/lag function
• water pumps MUST be energized from the PIC II
controls
• water flows should be constant
• the CCN time schedules for all chillers must be identical
Operation Features:
• 2 chiller lead/lag
• addition of a third chiller for backup
• manual rotation of lead chiller
• load balancing if configured
• staggered restart of the chillers after a power failure
• chillers may be piped in parallel or in series chilled water
flow
COMMON POINT SENSOR INSTALLATION — Lead/lag
operation does not require a common chilled water point sensor. Common point sensors (Spare Temp #1 and #2) can be
added to the CCM module, if desired. Spare Temp #1 and #2
are wired to plug J4 terminals 25-26 and 27-28 (J4 lower,
respectively).
NOTE: If the common point sensor option is chosen on a
chilled water system, each chiller should have its own common
point sensor installed. Each chiller uses its own common point
sensor for control when that chiller is designated as the lead
chiller. The PIC II cannot read the value of common point sensors installed on the other chillers in the chilled water system.
If leaving chilled water control (ECW CONTROL OPTION
is set to 0 [DSABLE] TEMP_CTL screen) and a common
point sensor is desired (COMMON SENSOR OPTION in
LEADLAG screen selected as 1) then the sensor is wired in
Spare Temp #1 position on the CCM.
If the entering chilled water control option (ECW CONTROL OPTION) is enabled (configured in TEMP_CTL
screen) and a common point sensor is desired (COMMON
SENSOR OPTION in LEADLAG screen selected as 1) then
the sensor is wired in Spare Temp #2 position on the CCM.
When installing chillers in series, a common point sensor
should be used. If a common point sensor is not used, the leaving chilled water sensor of the upstream chiller must be moved
into the leaving chilled water pipe of the downstream chiller.
If return chilled water control is required on chillers piped in
series, the common point return chilled water sensor should be
installed. If this sensor is not installed, the return chilled water
sensor of the downstream chiller must be relocated to the return
chilled water pipe of the upstream chiller.
To properly control the common supply point temperature
sensor when chillers are piped in parallel, the water flow
through the shutdown chillers must be isolated so no water bypass around the operating chiller occurs. The common point
sensor option must not be used if water bypass around the operating chiller is occurring.
CHILLER COMMUNICATION WIRING — Refer to the
chiller’s Installation Instructions, Carrier Comfort Network
Interface section for information on chiller communication
wiring.

NOTE: Lead chiller percent capacity = 115 – LAG % CAPACITY. The LAG % CAPACITY parameter is on the LEADLAG
screen, which is accessed from the EQUIPMENT SERVICE
table on the SERVICE menu.
FAULTED CHILLER OPERATION — If the lead chiller
shuts down because of an alarm (*) condition, it stops communicating to the lag and standby chillers. After 30 seconds, the
lag chiller becomes the acting lead chiller and starts and stops
the standby chiller, if necessary.
If the lag chiller goes into alarm when the lead chiller is also
in alarm, the standby chiller reverts to a stand-alone CCN
mode of operation.
If the lead chiller is in an alarm (*) condition (as shown on
the CVC/ICVC panel), press the RESET softkey to clear the
alarm. The chiller is placed in CCN mode. The lead chiller
communicates and monitors the RUN STATUS of the lag and
standby chillers. If both the lag and standby chillers are running, the lead chiller does not attempt to start and does not assume the role of lead chiller until either the lag or standby chiller shuts down. If only one chiller is running, the lead chiller
waits for a start request from the operating chiller. When the
configured lead chiller starts, it assumes its role as lead chiller.
If the lag chiller is the only chiller running when the lead
chiller assumes its role as a lead chiller then the lag chiller will
perform a RECOVERY START REQUEST (LL_MAINT
screen). The lead chiller will start up when the following conditions are met.
1. Lag chiller ramp loading must be complete.
2. Lag CHILLED WATER TEMP (MAINSTAT screen) is
greater than CONTROL POINT plus 1/2 the CHILLED
WATER DEADBAND temperature.
3. Lag chiller ACTIVE DEMAND LIMIT value must be
greater than 95% of full load amps.
4. Lag chiller temperature pulldown rate (TEMP PULLDOWN DEG/MIN) of the chilled water temperature is
less than 0.5 F (0.27 C) per minute.
5. The standby chiller is not running as a lag chiller.
6. The configured LAG START TIMER has elapsed. The
LAG START TIMER is started when ramp loading is
completed.
LOAD BALANCING — When the LOAD BALANCE
OPTION (see LEADLAG screen) is enabled, the lead chiller
sets the ACTIVE DEMAND LIMIT in the lag chiller to the lead
chiller’s compressor motor load value MOTOR PERCENT
KILOWATTS or AVERAGE LINE CURRENT on the MAINSTAT screen). This value has limits of 40% to 100%. When the
lag chiller ACTIVE DEMAND LIMIT is set, the CONTROL
POINT must be modified to a value of 3° F (1.67° C) less than
the lead chiller’s CONTROL POINT value. If the LOAD BALANCE OPTION is disabled, the ACTIVE DEMAND LIMIT
and the CONTROL POINT are forced to the same value as the
lead chiller.
AUTO. RESTART AFTER POWER FAILURE — When an
auto. restart condition occurs, each chiller may have a delay
added to the start-up sequence, depending on its lead/lag configuration. The lead chiller does not have a delay. The lag chiller has a 45-second delay. The standby chiller has a 90-second
delay. The delay time is added after the chiller water flow is
verified. The PIC II ensures the guide vanes are closed. After
the guide vane position is confirmed, the delay for lag and
standby chillers occurs prior to energizing the oil pump. The
normal start-up sequence then continues. The auto. restart delay sequence occurs whether the chiller is in CCN or LOCAL
mode and is intended to stagger the compressor motor starts.
Preventing the motors from starting simultaneously helps reduce the inrush demands on the building power system.

Standby Chiller Configuration and Operation — A chiller is
designated as a standby chiller when its LEADLAG: CONFIGURATION value on the LEADLAG screen is set to “3.” The
standby chiller can operate as a replacement for the lag chiller
only if one of the other two chillers is in an alarm (*) condition
(as shown on the CVC/ICVC panel). If both lead and lag chillers are in an alarm (*) condition, the standby chiller defaults to
operate in CCN mode, based on its configured occupancy
schedule and remote contacts input.
Lag Chiller Start-Up Requirements — Before the lag chiller
can be started, the following conditions must be met:
1. Lead chiller ramp loading must be complete.
2. Lead chilled water temperature must be greater than the
CONTROL POINT temperature (see the MAINSTAT
screen) plus 1/2 the CHILLED WATER DEADBAND
temperature (see the SETUP1 screen).
NOTE: The chilled water temperature sensor may be the
leaving chilled water sensor, the return water sensor, the
common supply water sensor, or the common return water sensor, depending on which options are configured
and enabled.
3. Lead chiller ACTIVE DEMAND LIMIT (see the MAINSTAT screen) value must be greater than 95% of full load
amps.
4. Lead chiller temperature pulldown rate (TEMP PULLDOWN DEG/MIN on the TEMP_CTL screen) of the
chilled water temperature is less than 0.5° F (0.27° C) per
minute.
5. The lag chiller status indicates it is in CCN mode and is
not in an alarm condition. If the current lag chiller is in an
alarm condition, the standby chiller becomes the active
lag chiller, if it is configured and available.
6. The configured LAG START TIMER entry has elapsed.
The LAG START TIMER starts when the lead chiller ramp
loading is completed. The LAG START TIMER entry is
on the LEADLAG screen, which is accessed from the
EQUIPMENT SERVICE table of the SERVICE menu.
When all the above requirements have been met, the lag
chiller is commanded to a STARTUP mode (SUPVSR flashing
next to the point value on the STATUS table). The PIC II control then monitors the lag chiller for a successful start. If the lag
chiller fails to start, the standby chiller, if configured, is started.
Lag Chiller Shutdown Requirements — The following conditions must be met in order for the lag chiller to be stopped.
1. Lead chiller compressor motor average line current or
load value (MOTOR PERCENT KILOWATTS on the
MAINSTAT screen) is less than the lead chiller percent
capacity.
NOTE: Lead chiller percent capacity = 115 – LAG % CAPACITY. The LAG % CAPACITY parameter is on the
LEADLAG screen, which is accessed from the EQUIPMENT SERVICE table on the SERVICE menu.
2. The lead chiller chilled water temperature is less than the
CONTROL POINT temperature (see the MAINSTAT
screen) plus 1/2 the CHILLED WATER DEADBAND temperature (see the SETUP1 screen).
3. The configured LAG STOP TIMER entry has elapsed.
The LAG STOP TIMER starts when the lead chiller
chilled water temperature is less than the chilled water
CONTROL POINT plus 1/2 of the CHILLED WATER
DEADBAND and the lead chiller compressor motor load
(MOTOR PERCENT KILOWATT or AVERAGE LINE
CURRENT on the MAINSTAT screen) is less than the
lead chiller percent capacity.

Ice Build Control — The ice build control option automatically sets the CONTROL POINT of the chiller to a temperature that allows ice building for thermal storage.
NOTE: For ice build control to operate properly, the PIC II
must be in CCN mode.
NOTE: See Fig. 17 and 18 for more information on ice buildrelated menus.
The PIC II can be configured for ice build operation.
• From the SERVICE menu, access the EQUIPMENT
SERVICE table. From there, select the OPTIONS screen
to enable or disable the ICE BUILD OPTION. See
Table 2, Example 17.
• The ICE BUILD SETPOINT can be configured from the
SETPOINT display, which is accessed from the PIC II
main menu. See Table 2, Example 9.
• The ice build schedule can be viewed or modified from
the SCHEDULE table. From this table, select the ice
build schedule (OCCPC02S) screen. See Fig. 19 and the
section on Time Schedule Operation, page 20, for more
information on modifying chiller schedules.
The ice build time schedule defines the period(s) during
which ice build is active if the ice build option is enabled. If the
ice build time schedule overlaps other schedules, the ice build
time schedule takes priority. During the ice build period, the
CONTROL POINT is set to the ICE BUILD SETPOINT for
temperature control. The ICE BUILD RECYCLE and ICE
BUILD TERMINATION parameters, accessed from the
OPTIONS screen, allow the chiller operator to recycle or terminate the ice build cycle. The ice build cycle can be configured to terminate if:
• the ENTERING CHILLED WATER temperature is less
than the ICE BUILD SETPOINT. In this case, the operator sets the ICE BUILD TERMINATION parameter to 0
on the OPTIONS screen.
• the REMOTE CONTACT inputs from an ice level indicator are opened. In this case, the operator sets the ICE
BUILD TERMINATION parameter to 1 on the OPTIONS
screen.
• the chilled water temperature is less than the ice build set
point and the remote contact inputs from an ice level
indicator are open. In this case, the operator sets the ICE
BUILD TERMINATION parameter to 2 on the OPTIONS
screen.
• the end of the ice build time schedule has been reached.
ICE BUILD INITIATION — The ice build time schedule
(OCCPC02S) is the means for activating the ice build option.
The ice build option is enabled if:
• a day of the week and a time period on the ice build time
schedule are enabled. The SCHEDULE screen shows an
X in the day field and ON/OFF times are designated for
the day(s),
• and the ICE BUILD OPTION is enabled.
The following events take place (unless overridden by a
higher authority CCN device).
• CHILLER START/STOP is forced to START.
• The CONTROL POINT is forced to the ICE BUILD SETPOINT.
• Any force (Auto) is removed from the ACTIVE
DEMAND LIMIT.
NOTE: A parameter’s value can be forced, that is, the value
can be manually changed at the CVC/ICVC by an operator,
changed from another CCN device, or changed by other algorithms in the PIC II control system.
NOTE: The Ice Build steps do not occur if the chiller is configured and operating as a lag or standby chiller for lead/lag operation and is actively being controlled by a lead chiller. The lead
chiller communicates the ICE BUILD SET POINT, the desired
CHILLER START/STOP state, and the ACTIVE DEMAND

LIMIT to the lag or standby chiller as required for ice build, if
configured to do so.
START-UP/RECYCLE OPERATION — If the chiller is not
running when ice build activates, the PIC II checks the following conditions, based on the ICE BUILD TERMINATION
value, to avoid starting the compressor unnecessarily:
• if ICE BUILD TERMINATION is set to the TEMP option
and the ENTERING CHILLED WATER temperature is
less than or equal to the ICE BUILD SETPOINT;
• if ICE BUILD TERMINATION is set to the CONTACTS
option and the remote contacts are open;
• if the ICE BUILD TERMINATION is set to the BOTH
(temperature and contacts) option and the ENTERING
CHILLED WATER temperature is less than or equal to
the ICE BUILD SETPOINT and the remote contacts are
open.
The ICE BUILD RECYCLE on the OPTIONS screen determines whether or not the chiller will go into an ice build RECYCLE mode.
• If the ICE BUILD RECYCLE is set to DSABLE (disable), the PIC II reverts to normal temperature control
when the ice build function terminates.
• If the ICE BUILD RECYCLE is set to ENABLE, the PIC
II goes into an ICE BUILD RECYCLE mode and the
chilled water pump relay remains energized to keep the
chilled water flowing when the ice build function terminates. If the temperature of the ENTERING CHILLED
WATER increases above the ICE BUILD SETPOINT plus
the RECYCLE RESTART DELTA T value, the compressor restarts and controls the chilled water/brine temperature to the ICE BUILD SETPOINT.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL DURING ICE BUILD —
During ice build, the capacity control algorithm shall use the
CONTROL POINT minus 5 F (–2.8 C) for control of the
LEAVING CHILLED WATER temperature. (See Table 2, example 10, the CAPACITY CONTROL parameter on the CAPACITY screen.) The ECW CONTROL OPTION and any temperature reset option shall be ignored, if enabled, during ice
build. The AUTO DEMAND LIMIT INPUT shall also be
ignored if enabled during ice build.
• ECW CONTROL OPTION and any temperature reset
options (configured on TEMP_CTL screen).
• 20 mA DEMAND LIMIT OPT (configured on
RAMP_DEM screen).
TERMINATION OF ICE BUILD — The ice build function
terminates under the following conditions:
1. Time Schedule — When the current time on the ice build
time schedule (OCCPC02S) is not set as an ice build time
period.
2. Entering Chilled Water Temperature — Compressor
operation terminates, based on temperature, if the ICE
BUILD TERMINATION parameter is set to 0 (TEMP),
the ENTERING CHILLED WATER temperature is less
than the ICE BUILD SETPOINT, and the ICE BUILD
RECYCLE is set to DSABLE. If the ICE BUILD RECYCLE OPTION is set to ENABLE, a recycle shutdown occurs and recycle start-up depends on the LEAVING
CHILLED WATER temperature being greater than the
water/brine CONTROL POINT plus the RESTART
DELTA T temperature.
3. Remote Contacts/Ice Level Input — Compressor operation terminates when the ICE BUILD TERMINATION
parameter is set to 1 (CONTACTS) and the remote contacts are open and the ICE BUILD RECYCLE is set to
DSABLE (0). In this case, the contacts provide ice level
termination control. The contacts are used to stop the ice
build function when a time period on the ice build schedule (OCCPC02S) is set for ice build operation. The remote contacts can still be opened and closed to start and
43

stop the chiller when a specific time period on the ice
build schedule is not set for ice build.
4. Entering Chilled Water Temperature and ICE BUILD
Contacts — Compressor operation terminates when the
ICE BUILD TERMINATION parameter is set to
2 (BOTH) and the conditions described above in items
2 and 3 for entering chilled water temperature and remote
contacts have occurred.
NOTE: It is not possible to override the CHILLER START/
STOP, CONTROL POINT, and ACTIVE DEMAND LIMIT
variables from CCN devices (with a priority 4 or greater) during the ice build period. However, a CCN device can override
these settings during 2-chiller lead/lag operation.
RETURN TO NON-ICE BUILD OPERATIONS — The ice
build function forces the chiller to start, even if all other schedules indicate that the chiller should stop. When the ice build
function terminates, the chiller returns to normal temperature
control and start/stop schedule operation. The CHILLER
START/STOP and CONTROL POINT return to normal operation. If the CHILLER START/STOP or CONTROL POINT has
been forced (with a device of less than 4 priority) before the ice
build function started, when the ice build function ends, the
previous forces (of less than 4 priority) are not automatically
restored.

Fig. 24 — Example of Attach to Network
Device Screen
module address cannot be found, the message “COMMUNICATION FAILURE” appears. The CVC/ICVC then reverts
back to the ATTACH TO DEVICE screen. Try another device
or check the address of the device that would not attach. The
upload process time for each CCN module is different. In general, the uploading process takes 1 to 2 minutes. Before leaving
the ATTACH TO NETWORK DEVICE screen, select the local device. Otherwise, the CVC/ICVC will be unable to display
information on the local chiller.
ATTACHING TO OTHER CCN MODULES — If the chiller CVC/ICVC has been connected to a CCN Network or other
PIC controlled chillers through CCN wiring, the CVC/ICVC
can be used to view or change parameters on the other controllers. Other PIC II chillers can be viewed and set points changed
(if the other unit is in CCN control), if desired, from this particular CVC/ICVC module.
If the module number is not valid, the “COMMUNICATION FAILURE” message will show and a new address number must be entered or the wiring checked. If the module is
communicating properly, the “UPLOAD IN PROGRESS”
message will flash and the new module can now be viewed.
Whenever there is a question regarding which module on
the CVC/ICVC is currently being shown, check the device
name descriptor on the upper left hand corner of the CVC/
ICVC screen. See Fig. 24.
When the CCN device has been viewed, the ATTACH TO
NETWORK DEVICE table should be used to attach to the PIC
that is on the chiller. Move to the ATTACH TO NETWORK
DEVICE table (LOCAL should be highlighted) and press the
ATTACH softkey to upload the LOCAL device. The CVC/
ICVC for the 19XR will be uploaded and default screen will
display.
NOTE: The CVC/ICVC will not automatically reattach to the
local module on the chiller. Press the ATTACH softkey to
attach to the LOCAL device and view the chiller operation.

Attach to Network Device Control — The Service
menu includes the ATTACH TO NETWORK DEVICE
screen. From this screen, the operator can:
• enter the time schedule number (if changed) for
OCCPC03S, as defined in the NET_OPT screen
• attach the CVC/ICVC to any CCN device, if the chiller
has been connected to a CCN network. This may include
other PIC-controlled chillers.
• upgrade software
Figure 24 shows the ATTACH TO NETWORK DEVICE
screen. The LOCAL parameter is always the CVC/ICVC module address of the chiller on which it is mounted. Whenever the
controller identification of the CVC/ICVC changes, the change
is reflected automatically in the BUS and ADDRESS columns
for the local device. See Fig. 18. Default address for local device is BUS 0 ADDRESS 1.
When the ATTACH TO NETWORK DEVICE screen is accessed, information can not be read from the CVC/ICVC on
any device until one of the devices listed on that screen is attached. The CVC/ICVC erases information about the module
to which it was attached to make room for information on another device. Therefore, a CCN module must be attached when
this screen is entered.
To attach any CCN device, highlight it using the SELECT
softkey and press the ATTACH softkey. The message “UPLOADING TABLES, PLEASE WAIT” displays. The CVC/
ICVC then uploads the highlighted device or module. If the

1. From the main MENU screen, press the SERVICE
softkey. The softkeys now correspond to the numerals
1, 2, 3, 4.

HOLIDAY SCHEDULING (Fig. 25) — The time schedules
may be configured for special operation during a holiday period. When modifying a time period, the “H” at the end of the
days of the week field signifies that the period is applicable to a
holiday. (See Fig. 19.)
The broadcast function must be activated for the holidays
configured on the HOLIDEF screen to work properly. Access
the BRODEF screen from the EQUIPMENT CONFIGURATION table and select ENABLE to activate function. Note that
when the chiller is connected to a CCN Network, only one
chiller or CCN device can be configured as the broadcast device. The controller that is configured as the broadcaster is the
device responsible for transmitting holiday, time, and daylightsavings dates throughout the network.
To access the BRODEF screen, see the SERVICE menu
structure, Fig. 18.
To view or change the holiday periods for up to 18 different

START-UP/SHUTDOWN/
RECYCLE SEQUENCE (Fig. 26)
Local Start-Up — Local start-up (or a manual start-up) is

NOTE: Units equipped with ICVC are not available with factory installed chilled water or condenser water flow devices
(available as an accessory for use with the CCM Control
board).
If the water/brine temperature is high enough, the start-up
sequence continues and checks the guide vane position. If the
guide vanes are more than 4% open, the start-up waits until the
PIC II closes the vanes. If the vanes are closed and the oil pump
pressure is less than 4 psi (28 kPa), the oil pump relay energizes. The PIC II then waits until the oil pressure (OIL PRESS
VERIFY TIME, operator-configured, default of 40 seconds)
reaches a maximum of 18 psi (124 kPa). After oil pressure is
verified, the PIC II waits 40 seconds, and the compressor start
relay (1CR) energizes to start the compressor.
Compressor ontime and service ontime timers start, and the
compressor STARTS IN 12 HOURS counter and the number of
starts over a 12-hour period counter advance by one.
Failure to verify any of the requirements up to this point will
result in the PIC II aborting the start and displaying the applicable pre-start mode of failure on the CVC/ICVC default screen.
A pre-start failure does not advance the STARTS IN 12 HOURS
counter. Any failure after the 1CR relay has energized results in
a safety shutdown, advances the starts in 12 hours counter by
one, and displays the applicable shutdown status on the CVC/
ICVC display.

initiated by pressing the LOCAL menu softkey on the default
CVC/ICVC screen. Local start-up can proceed when the chiller
schedule indicates that the current time and date have been
established as a run time and date, and after the internal
15-minute start-to-start and the 1-minute stop-to-start inhibit
timers have expired. These timers are represented in the START
INHIBIT TIMER and can be viewed on the MAINSTAT screen
and DEFAULT screen. The timer must expire before the chiller
will start. If the timers have not expired the RUN STATUS parameter on the MAINSTAT screen now reads TIMEOUT.
NOTE: The time schedule is said to be “occupied” if the
OCCUPIED ? parameter on the MAINSTAT screen is set to
YES. For more information on occupancy schedules, see the
sections on Time Schedule Operation (page 20), Occupancy
Schedule (page 34), and To Prevent Accidental Start-Up
(page 65), and Fig. 19.
If the OCCUPIED ? parameter on the MAINSTAT screen
is set to NO, the chiller can be forced to start as follows. From
the default CVC/ICVC screen, press the MENU and
STATUS softkeys. Scroll to highlight MAINSTAT. Press the
SELECT softkey. Scroll to highlight CHILLER START/STOP.
Press the START softkey to override the schedule and start
the chiller.
NOTE: The chiller will continue to run until this forced start is
released, regardless of the programmed schedule. To release
the forced start, highlight CHILLER START/STOP from the
MAINSTAT screen and press the RELEASE softkey. This
action returns the chiller to the start and stop times established
by the schedule.
The chiller may also be started by overriding the time
schedule. From the default screen, press the MENU and
SCHEDULE softkeys. Scroll down and select the current
schedule. Select OVERRIDE, and set the desired override
time.
Another condition for start-up must be met for chillers that
have the REMOTE CONTACTS OPTION on the EQUIPMENT SERVICE screen set to ENABLE. For these chillers,
the REMOTE START CONTACT parameter on the MAINSTAT screen must be CLOSED. From the CVC/ICVC default
screen, press the MENU and STATUS softkeys. Scroll to
highlight MAINSTAT and press the SELECT softkey. Scroll
down the MAINSTAT screen to highlight REMOTE START
CONTACT and press the SELECT softkey. Then, press the
CLOSE softkey. To end the override, select REMOTE CONTACTS INPUT and press the RELEASE softkey.
Once local start-up begins, the PIC II performs a series of
pre-start tests to verify that all pre-start alerts and safeties are
within the limits shown in Table 4. The RUN STATUS parameter on the MAINSTAT screen line now reads PRESTART. If a
test is not successful, the start-up is delayed or aborted. If the
tests are successful, the chilled water/brine pump relay energizes, and the MAINSTAT screen line now reads STARTUP.
Five seconds later, the condenser pump relay energizes.
Thirty seconds later the PIC II monitors the chilled water and
condenser water flow devices and waits until the WATER
FLOW VERIFY TIME (operator-configured, default 5 minutes)
expires to confirm flow. After flow is verified, the chilled water
temperature is compared to CONTROL POINT plus 1/2
CHILLED WATER DEADBAND. If the temperature is less
than or equal to this value, the PIC II turns off the condenser
pump relay and goes into a RECYCLE mode.

Shutdown Sequence — Chiller shutdown begins if
any of the following occurs:
• the STOP button is pressed for at least one second (the
alarm light blinks once to confirm the stop command)
• a recycle condition is present (see Chilled Water Recycle
Mode section)
• the time schedule has gone into unoccupied mode
• the chiller protective limit has been reached and chiller is
in alarm
• the start/stop status is overridden to stop from the CCN
network or the CVC/ICVC
When a stop signal occurs, the shutdown sequence first
stops the compressor by deactivating the start relay (1CR). A
status message of “SHUTDOWN IN PROGRESS, COMPRESSOR DEENERGIZED” is displayed, and the compressor ontime and service ontime stop. The guide vanes are then
brought to the closed position. The oil pump relay and the
chilled water/brine pump relay shut down 60 seconds after the
compressor stops. The condenser water pump shuts down at
the same time if the ENTERING CONDENSER WATER temperature is greater than or equal to 115 F (46.1 C) and the
CONDENSER REFRIG TEMP is greater than the CONDENSER FREEZE POINT plus 5 F (–15.0 C). The stop-to-start timer
now begins to count down. If the start-to-start timer value is
still greater than the value of the start-to-stop timer, then this
time displays on the CVC/ICVC.
Certain conditions that occur during shutdown can change
this sequence.
• If the AVERAGE LINE CURRENT is greater than 5%
after shutdown, or the starter contacts remain energized,
the oil pump and chilled water pump remain energized
and the alarm is displayed.
• The condenser pump shuts down when the CONDENSER PRESSURE is less than the COND PRESS
OVERRIDE threshold minus 3.5 psi (24.1 kPa) and the
CONDENSER REFRIG TEMP is less than or equal to the
ENTERING CONDENSER WATER temperature plus
3° F (–1.6° C).
• If the chiller shuts down due to low refrigerant temperature, the chilled water pump continues to run until the
LEAVING CHILLED WATER temperature is greater than
the CONTROL POINT temperature, plus 5° F (3° C).

Chilled Water Recycle Mode — The chiller may
cycle off and wait until the load increases to restart when the
compressor is running in a lightly loaded condition. This cycling is normal and is known as “recycle.” A recycle shutdown
is initiated when any of the following conditions are true:
• the chiller is in LCW control, the difference between the
LEAVING CHILLED WATER temperature and ENTERING CHILLED WATER temperature is less than the
RECYCLE SHUTDOWN DELTA T (found in the
SETUP1 table) the LEAVING CHILLED WATER temperature is 5° F (2.8° C) below the CONTROL POINT,
the CONTROL POINT has not increased in the last
5 minutes and ICE BUILD is not active.
• the ECW CONTROL OPTION is enabled, the difference
between the ENTERING CHILLED WATER temperature
and the LEAVING CHILLED WATER temperature is less
than the RECYCLE SHUTDOWN DELTA T (found in the
SETUP1 table), the ENTERING CHILLED WATER temperature is 5° F (2.8° C) below the CONTROL POINT,
and the CONTROL POINT has not increased in the last
5 minutes.
• the LEAVING CHILLED WATER temperature is within
3° F (2° C) of the EVAP REFRIG TRIPPOINT.
When the chiller is in RECYCLE mode, the chilled water
pump relay remains energized so the chilled water temperature
can be monitored for increasing load. The recycle control uses
RESTART DELTA T to check when the compressor should be
restarted. This is an operator-configured function which defaults to 5° F (3° C). This value can be viewed or modified on
the SETUP1 table. The compressor will restart when the chiller
is:
• in LCW CONTROL and the LEAVING CHILLED
WATER temperature is greater than the CONTROL
POINT plus the RECYCLE RESTART DELTA T.
• in ECW CONTROL and the ENTERING CHILLED
WATER temperature is greater than the CONTROL
POINT plus the RECYCLE RESTART DELTA T.
Once these conditions are met, the compressor initiates a
start-up with a normal start-up sequence.
An alert condition may be generated if 5 or more recycle
start-ups occur in less than 4 hours. Excessive recycling can
reduce chiller life; therefore, compressor recycling due to extremely low loads should be reduced.
To reduce compressor recycling, use the time schedule to
shut the chiller down during known low load operation period,
or increase the chiller load by running the fan systems. If the
hot gas bypass is installed, adjust the values to ensure that hot
gas is energized during light load conditions. Increase the
RECYCLE RESTART DELTA T on the SETUP1 table to
lengthen the time between restarts.
The chiller should not be operated below design minimum
load without a hot gas bypass installed.

Automatic Soft Stop Amps Threshold — The soft
stop amps threshold feature closes the guide vanes of the compressor automatically if a non-recycle, non-alarm stop signal
occurs before the compressor motor is deenergized.
If the STOP button is pressed, the guide vanes close to a
preset amperage percent until the guide vane is less than 4%
open or 4 minutes have passed. The compressor then shuts off.
If the chiller enters an alarm state or if the compressor enters
a RECYCLE mode, the compressor deenergizes immediately.
To activate the soft stop amps threshold feature, scroll to the
bottom of OPTIONS screen on the CVC/ICVC. Use the
INCREASE or DECREASE softkey to set the SOFT STOP
AMPS THRESHOLD parameter to the percent of amps at
which the motor will shut down. The default setting is 100%
amps (no soft stop). The range is 40 to 100%.
When the soft stop amps threshold feature is being applied,
a status message, “SHUTDOWN IN PROGRESS, COMPRESSOR UNLOADING” displays on the CVC/ICVC.
The soft stop amps threshold function can be terminated and
the compressor motor deenergized immediately by depressing
the STOP button twice.

Safety Shutdown — A safety shutdown is identical to
a manual shutdown with the exception that, during a safety
shutdown, the CVC/ICVC displays the reason for the shutdown, the alarm light blinks continuously, and the spare alarm
contacts are energized.
After a safety shutdown, the RESET softkey must be
pressed to clear the alarm. If the alarm condition is still present,
the alarm light continues to blink. Once the alarm is cleared,
the operator must press the CCN or LOCAL softkeys to restart the chiller.

BEFORE INITIAL START-UP

To determine if there are any leaks, the chiller should be
charged with refrigerant. Use an electronic leak detector to
check all flanges and solder joints after the chiller is pressurized. If any leaks are detected, follow the leak test procedure.
If the chiller is spring isolated, keep all springs blocked in
both directions to prevent possible piping stress and damage
during the transfer of refrigerant from vessel to vessel during
the leak test process, or any time refrigerant is being transferred. Adjust the springs when the refrigerant is in operating
condition and the water circuits are full.

5000-v insulation tester for compressor motor rated
above 600 v

Do not use air or oxygen as a means of pressurizing
the chiller. Mixtures of HFC-134a and air can undergo
combustion.

Using the Optional Storage Tank and Pumpout System — Refer to Chillers with Storage Tanks section, page 69 for pumpout system preparation, refrigerant
transfer, and chiller evacuation.

Remove Shipping Packaging — Remove any packaging material from the control center, power panel, guide vane
actuator, motor cooling and oil reclaim solenoids, motor and
bearing temperature sensor covers, and the factory-mounted
starter.
Open Oil Circuit Valves — Check to ensure the oil filter isolation valves (Fig. 4) are open by removing the valve cap
and checking the valve stem.

Tighten All Gasketed Joints and Guide Vane
Shaft Packing — Gaskets and packing normally relax by
the time the chiller arrives at the jobsite. Tighten all gasketed
joints and the guide vane shaft packing to ensure a leak-tight
chiller.

Check Chiller Tightness — Figure 28 outlines the
proper sequence and procedures for leak testing.
The 19XR chillers are shipped with the refrigerant contained in the condenser shell and the oil charge in the compressor. The cooler is shipped with a 15 psig (103 kPa) refrigerant
charge. Units may be ordered with the refrigerant shipped separately, along with a 15 psig (103 kPa) nitrogen-holding charge
in each vessel.

Fig. 28 — 19XR Leak Test Procedures

Leak Test Chiller — Due to regulations regarding refrigerant emissions and the difficulties associated with separating
contaminants from the refrigerant, Carrier recommends the
following leak test procedure. See Fig. 28 for an outline of the
leak test procedure. Refer to Fig. 29 and 30 during pumpout
procedures and Tables 5A and 5B for refrigerant pressure/
temperature values.
1. If the pressure readings are normal for the chiller
condition:
a. Evacuate the holding charge from the vessels, if
present.
b. Raise the chiller pressure, if necessary, by adding
refrigerant until pressure is at the equivalent saturated pressure for the surrounding temperature.
Follow the pumpout procedures in the Transfer
Refrigerant from Pumpout Storage Tank to Chiller
section, Steps 1a - e, page 69.

5. If no leak is found during the initial start-up procedures,
complete the transfer of refrigerant gas from the pumpout
storage tank to the chiller (see Transfer Refrigerant from
Pumpout Storage Tank to Chiller section, page 69). Retest for leaks.
6. If no leak is found after a retest:
a. Transfer the refrigerant to the pumpout storage
tank and perform a standing vacuum test as outlined in the Standing Vacuum Test section, below.
b. If the chiller fails the standing vacuum test, check
for large leaks (Step 2b).
c. If the chiller passes the standing vacuum test,
dehydrate the chiller. Follow the procedure in
the Chiller Dehydration section. Charge the chiller
with refrigerant (see Transfer Refrigerant from
Pumpout Storage Tank to Chiller section,
page 69).
7. If a leak is found after a retest, pump the refrigerant back
into the pumpout storage tank or, if isolation valves are
present, pump the refrigerant into the non-leaking
vessel (see Pumpout and Refrigerant Transfer procedures
section).
8. Transfer the refrigerant until the chiller pressure is at
18 in. Hg (40 kPa absolute).
9. Repair the leak and repeat the procedure, beginning from
Step 2h, to ensure a leak-tight repair. (If the chiller is
opened to the atmosphere for an extended period, evacuate it before repeating the leak test.)

Never charge liquid refrigerant into the chiller if the pressure in the chiller is less than 35 psig (241 kPa) for
HFC-134a. Charge as a gas only, with the cooler and condenser pumps running, until this pressure is reached, using
PUMPDOWN LOCKOUT and TERMINATE LOCKOUT mode on the PIC II. Flashing of liquid refrigerant at
low pressures can cause tube freeze-up and considerable
damage.
c. Leak test chiller as outlined in Steps 3 - 9.
2. If the pressure readings are abnormal for the chiller
condition:
a. Prepare to leak test chillers shipped with refrigerant (Step 2h).
b. Check for large leaks by connecting a nitrogen bottle
and raising the pressure to 30 psig (207 kPa). Soap
test all joints. If the test pressure holds for 30 minutes,
prepare the test for small leaks (Steps 2g - h).
c. Plainly mark any leaks that are found.
d. Release the pressure in the system.
e. Repair all leaks.
f. Retest the joints that were repaired.
g. After successfully completing the test for large
leaks, remove as much nitrogen, air, and moisture
as possible, given the fact that small leaks may be
present in the system. This can be accomplished by
following the dehydration procedure, outlined in
the Chiller Dehydration section, page 53.
h. Slowly raise the system pressure to a maximum of
160 psig (1103 kPa) but no less than 35 psig
(241 kPa) for HFC-134a by adding refrigerant.
Proceed with the test for small leaks (Steps 3-9).
3. Check the chiller carefully with an electronic leak detector, halide torch, or soap bubble solution.
4. Leak Determination — If an electronic leak detector indicates a leak, use a soap bubble solution, if possible, to
confirm. Total all leak rates for the entire chiller. Leakage
at rates greater than 1 lb./year (0.45 kg/year) for the entire
chiller must be repaired. Note the total chiller leak rate on
the start-up report.

Standing Vacuum Test — When performing the
standing vacuum test or chiller dehydration, use a manometer
or a wet bulb indicator. Dial gages cannot indicate the small
amount of acceptable leakage during a short period of time.
1. Attach an absolute pressure manometer or wet bulb indicator to the chiller.
2. Evacuate the vessel (see Pumpout and Refrigerant Transfer Procedures section, page 67) to at least 18 in. Hg vac,
ref 30-in. bar (41 kPa), using a vacuum pump or the
pump out unit.
3. Valve off the pump to hold the vacuum and record the
manometer or indicator reading.
4. a. If the leakage rate is less than 0.05 in. Hg (0.17 kPa) in
24 hours, the chiller is sufficiently tight.
b. If the leakage rate exceeds 0.05 in. Hg (0.17 kPa) in
24 hours, repressurize the vessel and test for leaks.
If refrigerant is available in the other vessel, pressurize by following Steps 2-10 of Return Chiller To
Normal Operating Conditions section, page 71. If
not, use nitrogen and a refrigerant tracer. Raise the
vessel pressure in increments until the leak is
detected. If refrigerant is used, the maximum gas
pressure is approximately 70 psig (483 kPa) for
HFC-134a at normal ambient temperature. If nitrogen is used, limit the leak test pressure to 230 psig
(1585 kPa) maximum.
5. Repair the leak, retest, and proceed with dehydration.

Chiller Dehydration — Dehydration is recommended if
the chiller has been open for a considerable period of time, if
the chiller is known to contain moisture, or if there has been a
complete loss of chiller holding charge or refrigerant pressure.

Do not start or megohm-test the compressor motor or oil
pump motor, even for a rotation check, if the chiller is
under dehydration vacuum. Insulation breakdown and
severe damage may result.
Fig. 31 — Dehydration Cold Trap

Inspect Water Piping — Refer to piping diagrams pro-

Inside-delta type starters must be disconnected by an isolation switch before placing the machine under a vacuum
because one lead of each phase is live with respect to
ground even though there is not a complete circuit to run
the motor. To be safe, isolate any starter before evacuating
the chiller if you are not sure if there are live leads to the
hermetic motor.

vided in the certified drawings and the piping instructions in
the 19XR Installation Instructions manual. Inspect the piping to
the cooler and condenser. Be sure that the flow directions are
correct and that all piping specifications have been met.
Piping systems must be properly vented with no stress on
waterbox nozzles and covers. Water flows through the cooler
and condenser must meet job requirements. Measure the pressure drop across the cooler and the condenser.

Dehydration can be done at room temperatures. Using a
cold trap (Fig. 31) may substantially reduce the time required
to complete the dehydration. The higher the room temperature,
the faster dehydration takes place. At low room temperatures, a
very deep vacuum is required to boil off any moisture. If low
ambient temperatures are involved, contact a qualified service
representative for the dehydration techniques required.
Perform dehydration as follows:
1. Connect a high capacity vacuum pump (5 cfm [.002 m3/s]
or larger is recommended) to the refrigerant charging
valve (Fig. 2). Tubing from the pump to the chiller should
be as short in length and as large in diameter as possible to
provide least resistance to gas flow.
2. Use an absolute pressure manometer or a wet bulb vacuum indicator to measure the vacuum. Open the shutoff
valve to the vacuum indicator only when taking a reading. Leave the valve open for 3 minutes to allow the indicator vacuum to equalize with the chiller vacuum.
3. If the entire chiller is to be dehydrated, open all isolation
valves (if present).
4. With the chiller ambient temperature at 60 F (15.6 C) or
higher, operate the vacuum pump until the manometer
reads 29.8 in. Hg vac, ref 30 in. bar. (0.1 psia)
(–100.61 kPa) or a vacuum indicator reads 35 F (1.7 C).
Operate the pump an additional 2 hours.
Do not apply a greater vacuum than 29.82 in. Hg vac
(757.4 mm Hg) or go below 33 F (.56 C) on the wet bulb
vacuum indicator. At this temperature and pressure, isolated pockets of moisture can turn into ice. The slow rate
of evaporation (sublimation) of ice at these low temperatures and pressures greatly increases dehydration time.
5. Valve off the vacuum pump, stop the pump, and record
the instrument reading.
6. After a 2-hour wait, take another instrument reading. If
the reading has not changed, dehydration is complete. If
the reading indicates vacuum loss, repeat Steps 4 and 5.
7. If the reading continues to change after several attempts,
perform a leak test up to the maximum 160 psig
(1103 kPa) pressure. Locate and repair the leak, and repeat dehydration.

Water must be within design limits, clean, and treated to
ensure proper chiller performance and to reduce the potential of tube damage due to corrosion, scaling, or erosion.
Carrier assumes no responsibility for chiller damage resulting from untreated or improperly treated water.

Check Optional Pumpout Compressor Water
Piping — If the optional pumpout storage tank and/or
pumpout system are installed, check to ensure the pumpout
condenser water has been piped in. Check for field-supplied
shutoff valves and controls as specified in the job data. Check
for refrigerant leaks on field-installed piping. See Fig. 29
and 30.

Check Relief Valves — Be sure the relief valves have
been piped to the outdoors in compliance with the latest edition
of ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 15 and applicable local safety
codes. Piping connections must allow for access to the valve
mechanism for periodic inspection and leak testing.
The 19XR relief valves are set to relieve at the 185 psig
(1275 kPa) chiller design pressure.

Inspect Wiring

Do not check the voltage supply without proper equipment
and precautions. Serious injury may result. Follow power
company recommendations.

Do not apply any kind of test voltage, even for a rotation
check, if the chiller is under a dehydration vacuum. Insulation breakdown and serious damage may result.
1. Examine the wiring for conformance to the job wiring diagrams and all applicable electrical codes.

53

11. On chillers with free-standing starters, inspect the power
panel to ensure that the contractor has fed the wires into
the bottom of the panel. Wiring into the top of the panel
can cause debris to fall into the contactors. Clean and inspect the contactors if this has occurred.

2. On low-voltage compressors (600 v or less) connect a
voltmeter across the power wires to the compressor starter and measure the voltage. Compare this reading to the
voltage rating on the compressor and starter nameplates.
3. Compare the ampere rating on the starter nameplate to
rating on the compressor nameplate. The overload trip
amps must be 108% to 120% of the rated load amps.
4. The starter for a centrifugal compressor motor must
contain the components and terminals required for PIC II
refrigeration control. Check the certified drawings.
5. Check the voltage to the following components and
compare it to the nameplate values: oil pump contact,
pumpout compressor starter, and power panel.
6. Ensure that fused disconnects or circuit breakers have
been supplied for the oil pump, power panel, and
pumpout unit.
7. Ensure all electrical equipment and controls are properly
grounded in accordance with job drawings, certified
drawings, and all applicable electrical codes.
8. Ensure the customer’s contractor has verified proper operation of the pumps, cooling tower fans, and associated
auxiliary equipment. This includes ensuring motors are
properly lubricated and have proper electrical supply and
proper rotation.
9. For field-installed starters only, test the chiller compressor motor and its power lead insulation resistance with a
500-v insulation tester such as a megohmmeter. (Use a
5000-v tester for motors rated over 600 v.) Factorymounted starters do not require a megohm test.
a. Open the starter main disconnect switch and follow
lockout/tagout rules.

Carrier Comfort Network Interface — The Carrier
Comfort Network (CCN) communication bus wiring is supplied and installed by the electrical contractor. It consists of
shielded, 3-conductor cable with drain wire.
The system elements are connected to the communication
bus in a daisy chain arrangement. The positive pin of each system element communication connector must be wired to the
positive pins of the system element on either side of it. The
negative pins must be wired to the negative pins. The signal
ground pins must be wired to the signal ground pins. See installation manual.
NOTE: Conductors and drain wire must be 20 AWG
(American Wire Gage) minimum stranded, tinned copper.
Individual conductors must be insulated with PVC, PVC/
nylon, vinyl, Teflon, or polyethylene. An aluminum/polyester
100% foil shield and an outer jacket of PVC, PVC/nylon,
chrome vinyl, or Teflon with a minimum operating temperature range of –4 F to 140 F (–20 C to 60 C) is required. See
table below for cables that meet the requirements.

When connecting the CCN communication bus to a system
element, a color code system for the entire network is recommended to simplify installation and checkout. The following
color code is recommended:

If the motor starter is a solid-state starter, the motor leads
must be disconnected from the starter before an insulation
test is performed. The voltage generated from the tester can
damage the starter solid-state components.

SIGNAL TYPE

b. With the tester connected to the motor leads, take
10-second and 60-second megohm readings as
follows:
6-Lead Motor — Tie all 6 leads together and test
between the lead group and ground. Next tie the
leads in pairs: 1 and 4, 2 and 5, and 3 and 6. Test
between each pair while grounding the third pair.
3-Lead Motor — Tie terminals 1, 2, and 3 together
and test between the group and ground.
c. Divide the 60-second resistance reading by the
10-second reading. The ratio, or polarization
index, must be one or higher. Both the 10- and
60-second readings must be at least 50 megohms.
If the readings on a field-installed starter are unsatisfactory, repeat the test at the motor with the
power leads disconnected. Satisfactory readings in
this second test indicate the fault is in the power
leads.
NOTE: Unit-mounted starters do not have to be
megohm tested.
10. Tighten all wiring connections to the plugs on the ISM
and CCM modules.

MECHANICAL STARTER
1. Check all field wiring connections for tightness, clearance from moving parts, and correct connection.
2. Check the contactor(s) to ensure they move freely. Check
the mechanical interlock between contactors to ensure
that 1S and 2M contactors cannot be closed at the same
time. Check all other electro-mechanical devices, such as
relays, for free movement. If the devices do not move
freely, contact the starter manufacturer for replacement
components.
3. Reapply starter control power (not main chiller power) to
check the electrical functions.
Ensure the starter (with relay 1CR closed) goes through a
complete and proper start cycle.

The oil heater is energized by powering the control circuit.
This should be done several hours before start-up to minimize
oil-refrigerant migration. The oil heater is controlled by the
PIC II and is powered through a contactor in the power panel.
Starters contain a separate circuit breaker to power the heater
and the control circuit. This arrangement allows the heater to
energize when the main motor circuit breaker is off for service
work or extended shutdowns. The oil heater relay status (OIL

As the 19XR unit is configured, all configuration settings
should be written down. A log, such as the one shown on pages
CL-1 to CL-16, provides a list for configuration values.

Input the Design Set Points — Access the CVC/
ICVC set point screen and view/modify the base demand limit
set point, and either the LCW set point or the ECW set point.
The PIC II can control a set point to either the leaving or entering chilled water. This control method is set in the EQUIPMENT SERVICE (TEMP_CTL) table.

Input the Local Occupied Schedule (OCCPC01S) —
Access the schedule OCCPC01S screen on the CVC/ICVC
and set up the occupied time schedule according to the customer’s requirements. If no schedule is available, the default is factory set for 24 hours occupied, 7 days per week including
holidays.
For more information about how to set up a time schedule,
see the Controls section, page 10.
The CCN Occupied Schedule (OCCPC03S) should be configured if a CCN system is being installed or if a secondary
time schedule is needed.
NOTE: The default CCN Occupied Schedule OCCPC03S is
configured to be unoccupied.

Oil Charge — The oil charge for the 19XR compressor depends on the compressor Frame size:
• Frame 2 compressor — 5 gal (18.9 L)
• Frame 3 compressor — 8 gal (30 L)
• Frame 4 compressor — 10 gal (37.8 L)
• Frame 5 compressor — 18 gal (67.8 L)
The chiller is shipped with oil in the compressor. When the
sump is full, the oil level should be no higher than the middle
of the upper sight glass, and minimum level is the bottom
of the lower sight glass (Fig. 2). If oil is added, it must meet
Carrier’s specification for centrifugal compressor use as described in the Oil Specification section. Charge the oil through
the oil charging valve located near the bottom of the transmission housing (Fig. 2). The oil must be pumped from the oil
container through the charging valve due to higher refrigerant
pressure. The pumping device must be able to lift from 0 to
200 psig (0 to 1380 kPa) or above unit pressure. Oil should
only be charged or removed when the chiller is shut down.

Input Service Configurations — The following configurations require the CVC/ICVC screen to be in the SERVICE portion of the menu.
• password
• input time and date
• CVC/ICVC configuration
• service parameters
• equipment configuration
• automated control test

refrigerant pressure (HFC-134a)
Condensing Temperature:
70 F (21.1 C) = 71 psig (490 kPa) saturated
refrigerant pressure (HFC-134a)
Minimum Load ∆T1 (at 20% Load): 2 F (1.1 C)
Minimum Load ∆P1:
71 – 38 = 33 psid (490 – 262 = 228 kPad)

Protecting the VFD Configuration
1. Select parameter P.051 from the VFD keypad.
2. Press the ENTER softkey to access the parameter. A
zero will be displayed.
3. Use the ↑ arrow key to increment the value to 26. This is
the password number.
4. Press the ENTER softkey to save the value. P.051 will
by displayed.
NOTE: Parameter programming is disabled when the
PASSWORD LED is on and enabled when the PASSWORD LED is off.
5. Select parameter P.006 from the VFD Keypad.
6. Press the ENTER softkey to access the parameter.
7. Use the ↑ arrow key to increment the value to 107. This
is the password number to restrict displaying the remaining P, and all of the H and r parameters.
8. Press the ENTER softkey to save the value.
Modify Minimum and Maximum Load Points (∆T1/P1; ∆T2/
P2) If Necessary — These pairs of chiller load points, located
on the OPTIONS screen, determine when to limit guide vane
travel or open the hot gas bypass valve when surge prevention
is needed. These points should be set based on individual
chiller operating conditions.
A label that lists the configuration values of the controls is
located on the inside of the unit’s control panel. These values
are based upon the original selection of the chiller. Jobsite conditions may require a slight modification to these parameters.
If after configuring a value for these points, surge prevention is operating too soon or too late for conditions, these parameters should be changed by the operator.
An example of such a configuration is shown below.
Refrigerant: HCFC-134a
Estimated Minimum Load Conditions:
44 F (6.7 C) LCW
45.5 F (7.5 C) ECW
43 F (6.1 C) Suction Temperature
70 F (21.1 C) Condensing Temperature
Estimated Maximum Load Conditions:
44 F (6.7 C) LCW
54 F (12.2 C) ECW
42 F (5.6 C) Suction Temperature
98 F (36.7 C) Condensing Temperature
Calculate Maximum Load — To calculate the maximum load
points, use the design load condition data. If the chiller full load
cooler temperature difference is more than 15 F (8.3 C), estimate the refrigerant suction and condensing temperatures at
this difference. Use the proper saturated pressure and temperature for the particular refrigerant used.
Suction Temperature:
42 F (5.6 C) = 37 psig (255 kPa) saturated
refrigerant pressure (HFC-134a)
Condensing Temperature:
98 F (36.7 C) = 120 psig (1827 kPa) saturated
refrigerant pressure (HFC-134a)
Maximum Load ∆T2:
54 – 44 = 10º F (12.2 – 6.7 = 5.5º C)
Maximum Load ∆P2:
120 – 37 = 83 psid (827 – 255 = 572 kPad)
To avoid unnecessary surge prevention, add about 10 psid
(70 kPad) to ∆P2 from these conditions:
∆T2 = 10º F (5.5º C)
∆P2 = 93 psid (642 kPad)

Again, to avoid unnecessary surge prevention, add 20 psid
(140 kPad) at ∆P1 from these conditions:
∆T1 = 2 F (1.1 C)
∆P1 = 53 psid (368 kPad)
If surge prevention occurs too soon or too late:

The differential pressure (∆P) and temperature (∆T) can be
monitored during chiller operation by viewing ACTIVE
DELTA P and ACTIVE DELTA T (HEAT_EX screen). Comparing SURGE/HGBP DELTA T to ACTIVE DELTA T will determine when the SURGE PREVENTION function will occur.
The smaller the difference between the SURGE/HGBP DELTA
T and the ACTIVE DELTA T values, the closer to surge
prevention.
Units with VFD — On units with VFD further adjustments can
be made if response to surge prevention or protection is not
functioning as desired. VFD GAIN and VFD INCREASE STEP
can be adjusted to allow for more aggressive changes in speed
when surge prevention or protection is active.
CONFIGURE DIFFUSER CONTROL IF NECESSARY — If the compressor is equipped with a variable diffuser, (size 5 compressor) access the SETUP2 screen. Scroll to
DIFFUSER CONTROL and press the ENABLE softkey.
Compare the diffuser and guide vane values (GUIDE VANE
25% LOAD PT, GUIDE VANE 50% LOAD PT, GUIDE VANE
75% LOAD PT, DIFFUSER 25% LOAD POINT, DIFFUSER
50% LOAD POINT, DIFFUSER 75% LOAD POINT) to the
values located on the label inside the control panel. See
Fig. 12.
Compressors with variable diffuser control have actuators
tested and stamped with the milliamp (mA) value that results in
100% actuator rotation. This value is configured on the
SETUP2 screen. It is labeled DIFFUSER FULL SPAN mA.
MODIFY EQUIPMENT CONFIGURATION IF NECESSARY — The EQUIPMENT SERVICE table has screens to
select, view, or modify parameters. Carrier’s certified drawings
have the configuration values required for the jobsite. Modify
these values only if requested.
SERVICE Screen Modifications — Change the values on
these screens according to specific job data. See the certified
drawings for the correct values. Modifications can include:
• chilled water reset
• entering chilled water control (Enable/Disable)
• 4 to 20 mA demand limit
• auto restart option (Enable/Disable)
• remote contact option (Enable/Disable)

COOLER CONDENSER PRESSURE TRANSDUCER
AND WATERSIDE FLOW DEVICE CALIBRATION
(Optional with ICVC inputs available) — Calibration can be
checked by comparing the pressure readings from the
transducer to an accurate refrigeration gage reading. These
readings can be viewed or calibrated from the HEAT_EX
screen on the CVC/ICVC. The transducer can be checked and
calibrated at 2 pressure points. These calibration points are
0 psig (0 kPa) and between 25 and 250 psig (173 and
1724 kPa). To calibrate these transducers:
1. Shut down the compressor, cooler, and condenser pumps.
NOTE: There should be no flow through the heat
exchangers.
2. Disconnect the transducer in question from its Schrader
fitting for cooler or condenser transducer calibration. For
oil pressure or flow device calibration keep transducer in
place.
NOTE: If the cooler or condenser vessels are at 0 psig
(0 kPa) or are open to atmospheric pressure, the transducers can be calibrated for zero without removing the transducer from the vessel.
3. Access the HEAT_EX screen and view the particular
transducer reading (the EVAPORATOR PRESSURE or
CONDENSER PRESSURE parameter on the HEAT_EX
screen). To calibrate oil pressure or waterside flow device, view the particular reading (CHILLED WATER
DELTA P and CONDENSER WATER DELTA P on the
HEAT_EX screen and OIL PUMP DELTA P on the
COMPRESS screen). It should read 0 psi (0 kPa). If the
reading is not 0 psi (0 kPa), but within ±5 psi (35 kPa),
the value may be set to zero by pressing the SELECT
softkey while the appropriate transducer parameter is
highlighted on the CVC/ICVC screen. Then press the
ENTER softkey. The value will now go to zero. No high
end calibration is necessary for OIL PUMP DELTA P or
flow devices.
If the transducer value is not within the calibration range,
the transducer returns to the original reading. If the pressure is within the allowed range (noted above), check the
voltage ratio of the transducer. To obtain the voltage ratio,
divide the voltage (dc) input from the transducer by the
supply voltage signal (displayed in CONTROL TEST
menu in the CCM PRESSURE TRANSDUCERS
screen) or measure across the positive (+ red) and negative (– black) leads of the transducer. For example, the
condenser transducer voltage input is measured at CCM
terminals J2-4 and J2-5. The voltage ratio must be between 0.80 and 0.11 for the software to allow calibration.
Rotate the waterside flow pressure device from the inlet
nozzle to the outlet nozzle and repeat this step. If rotating
the waterside flow device does not allow calibration then
pressurize the transducer until the ratio is within range.
Then attempt calibration again.
4. A high pressure point can also be calibrated between 25
and 250 psig (172.4 and 1723.7 kPa) by attaching a regulated 250 psig (1724 kPa) pressure (usually from a nitrogen cylinder). The high pressure point can be calibrated
by accessing the appropriate transducer parameter on the
HEAT_EX screen, highlighting the parameter, pressing
the SELECT softkey, and then using the INCREASE
or DECREASE softkeys to adjust the value to the exact
pressure on the refrigerant gage. Press the ENTER softkey to finish the calibration. Pressures at high altitude locations must be compensated for, so the chiller temperature/pressure relationship is correct.
The PIC II does not allow calibration if the transducer is too
far out of calibration. In this case, a new transducer must be
installed and recalibrated.

Perform a Control Test — Check the safety controls
status by performing an automated control test. Access the
CONTROL TEST table and select a test to be performed function (Table 9).
The Automated Control Test checks all outputs and inputs
for function. In order to successfully proceed with the controls
test, the compressor should be off, no alarms showing, and voltage should be within ±10% of rating plate value. The compressor can be put in OFF mode by pressing the STOP push-button
on the CVC/ICVC. Each test asks the operator to confirm the
operation is occurring and whether or not to continue. If an error occurs, the operator can try to address the problem as the
test is being done or note the problem and proceed to the next
test.
NOTE: Enter guide vane calibration to calibrate guide
input on CCM (Plug J4 upper terminal 9 and 10).
NOTE: If during the control test the guide vanes do not open,
verify the low pressure alarm is not active. (An active low
pressure alarm causes the guide vanes to close.)
NOTE: The oil pump test will not energize the oil pump if
cooler pressure is below –5 psig (–35 kPa).
When the control test is finished or the EXIT softkey is
pressed, the test stops, and the CONTROL TEST menu displays. If a specific automated test procedure is not completed,
access the particular control test to test the function when ready.
The CONTROL TEST menu is described in the table below.

When using pumpdown/lockout,
observe freeze up precautions when
removing charge:

The standard 19XR chiller is shipped with the refrigerant
already charged in the vessels. However, the 19XR may be ordered with a nitrogen holding charge of 15 psig (103 kPa).
Evacuate the nitrogen from the entire chiller, and charge the
chiller from refrigerant cylinders.
CHILLER EQUALIZATION WITHOUT A PUMPOUT
UNIT

When equalizing refrigerant pressure on the 19XR chiller
after service work or during the initial chiller start-up, do
not use the discharge isolation valve to equalize. Either the
motor cooling isolation valve or the charging hose (connected between the pumpout valves on top of the cooler
and condenser) should be used as the equalization valve.
To equalize the pressure differential on a refrigerant isolated
19XR chiller, use the terminate lockout function of the CONTROL TEST on the SERVICE menu. This helps to turn on
pumps and advises the operator on proper procedures.
The following steps describe how to equalize refrigerant
pressure in an isolated 19XR chiller without a pumpout unit.
1. Access terminate lockout function on the CONTROL
TEST screen.
2. IMPORTANT: Turn on the chilled water and condenser water pumps to prevent freezing.

Instructs operator which valves to
close and when.
Starts chilled water and condenser
water pumps and confirms flows.
Monitors
Evaporator pressure
Condenser pressure

3. Slowly open the refrigerant cooling isolation valve. The
chiller cooler and condenser pressures will gradually
equalize. This process takes approximately 15 minutes.
4. Once the pressures have equalized, the cooler isolation
valve, the condenser isolation valve, and the hot gas isolation valve may now be opened. Refer to Fig. 29 and 30,
for the location of the valves.

Turns pumps off after pumpdown.
8 Terminate Lockout

3. Open valve 4 on the pumpout unit and open valves 1a and
1b on the chiller cooler and condenser, Fig. 29 and 30.
Slowly open valve 2 on the pumpout unit to equalize the
pressure. This process takes approximately 15 minutes.
4. Once the pressures have equalized, the discharge isolation valve, cooler isolation valve, optional hot gas bypass
isolation valve, and the refrigerant isolation valve can be
opened. Close valves 1a and 1b, and all pumpout unit
valves.

Whenever turning the discharge isolation valve, be sure to
reattach the valve locking device. This prevents the valve
from opening or closing during service work or during
chiller operation.
The full refrigerant charge on the 19XR will vary with chiller components and design conditions, as indicated on the job
data specifications. An approximate charge may be determined
by adding the condenser charge to the cooler charge as listed in
Table 10.

Always operate the condenser and chilled water pumps
whenever charging, transferring, or removing refrigerant
from the chiller.

INITIAL START-UP

Use the CONTROL TEST terminate lockout function to
monitor conditions and start the pumps.
If the chiller has been shipped with a holding charge, the
refrigerant is added through the pumpout charging connection
(Fig. 29 and 30, valve 1b). First evacuate the nitrogen holding
charge from the chiller vessels. Charge the refrigerant as a gas
until the system pressure exceeds 35 psig (141 kPa) for
HFC-134a. After the chiller is beyond this pressure the refrigerant should be charged as a liquid until all the recommended
refrigerant charge has been added. The charging valve (Fig. 29
and 30, valve 7) can be used to charge liquid to the cooler if the
cooler isolation valve (11) is present and is closed. Do not
charge liquid through the linear float to the condenser.
TRIMMING REFRIGERANT CHARGE — The 19XR is
shipped with the correct charge for the design duty of the chiller. Trimming the charge can best be accomplished when the
design load is available. To trim the charge, check the temperature difference between the leaving chilled water temperature
and cooler refrigerant temperature at full load design conditions. If necessary, add or remove refrigerant to bring the
temperature difference to design conditions or minimum
differential.
Table 10 lists the 19XR chiller refrigerant charges for each
cooler and condenser code. Total refrigerant charge is the sum
of the cooler and condenser charge.

Preparation — Before starting the chiller, verify:
1. Power is on to the main starter, oil pump relay, tower fan
starter, oil heater relay, and the chiller control panel.
2. Cooling tower water is at proper level and at-or-below
design entering temperature.
3. Chiller is charged with refrigerant and all refrigerant and
oil valves are in their proper operating positions.
4. Oil is at the proper level in the reservoir sight glasses.
5. Oil reservoir temperature is above 140 F (60 C) or above
refrigerant temperature plus 50° F (28° C).
6. Valves in the evaporator and condenser water circuits are
open.
NOTE: If the pumps are not automatic, ensure water is
circulating properly.

Do not permit water or brine that is warmer than 110 F
(43 C) to flow through the cooler or condenser. Refrigerant
overpressure may discharge through the relief valves and
result in the loss of refrigerant charge.
7. Access the CONTROL TEST screen. Scroll down on the
TERMINATE LOCKOUT option. Press the SELECT (to
enable the chiller to start) and answer YES to reset unit to
operating mode. The chiller is locked out at the factory in
order to prevent accidental start-up.

64

Dry Run to Test Start-Up Sequence
For electro-mechanical starters.
1. Disengage the main motor disconnect (CB1) on the starter front panel. This should only disconnect the motor
power. Power to the controls, oil pump, and starter control circuit should still be energized.
2. Observe the default screen on the CVC/ICVC: the status
message in the upper left-hand corner reads, “Manually
Stopped,” Press the CCN or LOCAL softkey to start.
If the chiller controls do not go into a start mode (“Unoccupied Mode” is displayed) go to the SCHEDULE screen
and override the schedule or change the occupied
time. Press the LOCAL softkey to begin the start-up
sequences.
3. View the STARTUP display screen and verify the chilled
water and condenser water pumps have energized.
4. Verify the oil pump has started and is pressurizing the
lubrication system. After the oil pump has run about
11 seconds, the starter energizes (COMPRESSOR START
CONTACT is closed) and goes through its start-up
sequence.
5. Check the main contactor (1M) for proper operation.
6. The PIC II eventually shows an alarm for motors amps
not sensed. Reset this alarm and continue with the initial
start-up.
For Benshaw Inc. solid-state starters:
1. Close the main motor disconnect (CB1). Voltage will be
applied to the compressor motor but the SCRs will not
fire (compressor motor will not rotate). Enter MENU 4 in
the Benshaw RediStart MICRO™ Menu structure at the
Benshaw display (see Input Service Configurations,
Change The Benshaw RediStart MICRO Software Configuration page 57). Select Dry Run Mode and scroll to
YES.
2. Follow steps 2 through 4 for the electro-mechanical starters. When the Ramp Time is set for less than 10 seconds
COMPRESSOR RUN CONTACT will close.
3. The PIC II eventually shows an alarm for motors amps
not sensed. Reset this alarm and enter MENU 4 in the
Benshaw display. Select Dry Run Mode and scroll to NO.
Continue with the initial start-up.

Fig. 33 — Correct Motor Rotation

Do not check motor rotation during coastdown. Rotation
may have reversed during equalization of vessel pressures.

Check Oil Pressure and Compressor Stop
1. When the motor is at full speed, note the differential oil
pressure reading on the CVC/ICVC default screen. It
should be between 18 and 30 psid (124 to 206 kPad).
2. Press the Stop button and listen for any unusual sounds
from the compressor as it coasts to a stop.

To Prevent Accidental Start-Up — A chiller STOP
override setting may be entered to prevent accidental start-up
during service or whenever necessary. Access the MAINSTAT
screen and using the NEXT or PREVIOUS softkeys, highlight the CHILLER START/STOP parameter. Override the current START value by pressing the SELECT softkey. Press the
STOP softkey followed by the ENTER softkey. The word
SUPVSR! displays on the CVC/ICVC indicating the override
is in place.
To restart the chiller the STOP override setting must be removed. Access the MAINSTAT screen and using NEXT or
PREVIOUS softkeys highlight CHILLER START/STOP. The
3 softkeys that appear represent 3 choices:
• START — forces the chiller ON
• STOP — forces the chiller OFF
• RELEASE — puts the chiller under remote or schedule
control.
To return the chiller to normal control, press the
RELEASE softkey followed by the ENTER softkey. For
more information, see Local Start-Up, page 46.
The default CVC/ICVC screen message line indicates
which command is in effect.

Check Motor Rotation
1. Engage the oil pump circuit breaker (CB3) located inside
the right hand side of the starter panel.
2. Then engage the control power circuit breaker (CB2) located in the same section of the starter cabinet.
3. Finally close the main motor disconnect (CB1) on the
front of the starter panel.
4. The ISM mounted in the electro-mechanical starters
checks for proper phase rotation as soon as power is
applied to the starter and the PIC II controls power up.
Solid-state starters have phase protection and do not permit a start if the phase rotation is not correct.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Operator Duties

temperature reads more than 180 F (83 C) with the oil
pump running, stop the chiller and determine the cause of
the high temperature. Do not restart the chiller until
corrected.
The oil level should be visible anywhere in one of the two
sight glasses. Foaming oil is acceptable as long as the oil
pressure and temperature are within limits.
The oil pressure should be between 18 and 30 psid (124
to 207 kPad) differential, as seen on the CVC/ICVC default screen. Typically the reading will be 18 to 25 psid
(124 to 172 kPad) at initial start-up.
The moisture indicator sight glass on the refrigerant
motor cooling line should indicate refrigerant flow and a
dry condition.
The condenser pressure and temperature varies with the
chiller design conditions. Typically the pressure will
range between 60 and 135 psig (390 to 950 kPa) with a
corresponding temperature range of 60 to 105 F (15 to
41 C). The condenser entering water temperature should
be controlled below the specified design entering
water temperature to save on compressor kilowatt
requirements.
Cooler pressure and temperature also will vary with the
design conditions. Typical pressure range will be between
60 and 80 psig (410 and 550 kPa), with temperature ranging between 34 and 45 F (1 and 8 C).
The compressor may operate at full capacity for a short
time after the pulldown ramping has ended, even though
the building load is small. The active electrical demand
setting can be overridden to limit the compressor IkW, or
the pulldown rate can be decreased to avoid a high
demand charge for the short period of high demand operation. Pulldown rate can be based on load rate or temperature rate and is accessed on the EQUIPMENT SERVICE screen, RAMP_DEM table (Table 2, Example 21).

To Stop the Chiller

1. Become familiar with the chiller and related equipment
before operating the chiller.
2. Prepare the system for start-up, start and stop the chiller,
and place the system in a shutdown condition.
3. Maintain a log of operating conditions and document any
abnormal readings.
4. Inspect the equipment, make routine adjustments, and
perform a Control Test. Maintain the proper oil and refrigerant levels.
5. Protect the system from damage during shutdown periods.
6. Maintain the set point, time schedules, and other PIC
functions.

1. The occupancy schedule starts and stops the chiller automatically once the time schedule is configured.
2. By pressing the STOP button for one second, the alarm
light blinks once to confirm the button has been pressed.
The compressor will then follow the normal shutdown
sequence as described in the Shutdown Sequence, StartUp/Shutdown/Recycle Sequence section, page 46. The
chiller will not restart until the CCN or LOCAL softkey is pressed. The chiller is now in the OFF control
mode.
IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to stop the chiller by opening
an isolating knife switch. High intensity arcing may occur.

Prepare the Chiller for Start-Up — Follow the steps
described in the Initial Start-Up section, page 64.

Do not restart the chiller until the problem is diagnosed
and corrected.

To Start the Chiller

After Limited Shutdown — No special preparations

1. Start the water pumps, if they are not automatic.
2. On the CVC/ICVC default screen, press the LOCAL or
CCN softkey to start the system. If the chiller is in the
OCCUPIED mode and the start timers have expired, the
start sequence will start. Follow the procedure described
in the Start-Up/Shutdown/Recycle Sequence section,
page 46.

should be necessary. Follow the regular preliminary checks and
starting procedures.

Preparation for Extended Shutdown — The refrigerant should be transferred into the pumpout storage tank (if
supplied; see Pumpout and Refrigerant Transfer Procedures) to
reduce chiller pressure and the possibility of leaks. Maintain a
holding charge of 5 to 10 lbs (2.27 to 4.5 kg) of refrigerant or
nitrogen to prevent air from leaking into the chiller.
If freezing temperatures are likely to occur in the chiller area, drain the chilled water, condenser water, and the pumpout
condenser water circuits to avoid freeze-up. Keep the waterbox
drains open.

Check the Running System — After the compressor starts, the operator should monitor the CVC/ICVC display
and observe the parameters for normal operating conditions:
1. The oil reservoir temperature should be above 120 F
(49 C) during shutdown.
2. The bearing oil temperature accessed on the COMPRESS
table should be 120 to 165 F (49 to 74 C). If the bearing
66

tank is supplied, the refrigerant can be isolated in the storage
tank. The following procedures describe how to transfer refrigerant from vessel to vessel and perform chiller evacuations.

Leave the oil charge in the chiller with the oil heater and
controls energized to maintain the minimum oil reservoir
temperature.

After Extended Shutdown — Ensure the water system drains are closed. It may be advisable to flush the water
circuits to remove any soft rust which may have formed. This
is a good time to brush the tubes and inspect the Schrader fittings on the waterside flow devices for fouling, if necessary.
Check the cooler pressure on the CVC/ICVC default screen
and compare it to the original holding charge that was left in
the chiller. If (after adjusting for ambient temperature changes)
any loss in pressure is indicated, check for refrigerant leaks.
See Check Chiller Tightness section, page 48.
Recharge the chiller by transferring refrigerant from the
pumpout storage tank (if supplied). Follow the Pumpout and
Refrigerant Transfer Procedures section, below. Observe
freeze-up precautions.
Carefully make all regular preliminary and running system
checks. Perform a Control Test before start-up. If the compressor oil level appears abnormally high, the oil may have
absorbed refrigerant. Ensure that the oil temperature is above
140 F (60 C) or above the cooler refrigerant temperature plus
50° F (27° C).

Always run the chiller cooler and condenser water pumps
and always charge or transfer refrigerant as a gas when the
chiller pressure is less than 30 psig (207 kPa). Below these
pressures, liquid refrigerant flashes into gas, resulting in
extremely low temperatures in the cooler/condenser tubes
and possibly causing tube freeze-up.

During transfer of refrigerant into and out of the optional
storage tank, carefully monitor the storage tank level gage.
Do not fill the tank more than 90% of capacity to allow for
refrigerant expansion. Overfilling may result in damage to
the tank or personal injury.

Cold Weather Operation — When the entering condenser water temperature drops very low, the operator should
automatically cycle the cooling tower fans off to keep the temperature up. Piping may also be arranged to bypass the cooling
tower. The PIC II controls have a low limit tower fan output
that can be used to assist in this control (terminal 11 and 12 on
ISM).

Do not mix refrigerants from chillers that use different
compressor oils. Compressor damage can result.

Operating the Optional Pumpout Unit
1. Be sure that the suction and the discharge service valves
on the optional pumpout compressor are open (backseated) during operation. Rotate the valve stem fully
counterclockwise to open. Front-seating the valve closes
the refrigerant line and opens the gage port to compressor
pressure.
2. Ensure that the compressor hold-down bolts have been
loosened to allow free spring travel.
3. Open the refrigerant inlet valve on the pumpout
compressor.
4. Oil should be visible in the pumpout unit compressor
sight glass under all operating conditions and during
shutdown. If oil is low, add oil as described under
Optional Pumpout System Maintenance section, page 75.
The pumpout unit control wiring schematic is detailed in
Fig. 35.
TO READ REFRIGERANT PRESSURES during pumpout or
leak testing:
1. The CVC/ICVC display on the chiller control panel is
suitable for determining refrigerant-side pressures and
low (soft) vacuum. To assure the desired range and accuracy when measuring evacuation and dehydration, use a
quality vacuum indicator or manometer. This can be
placed on the Schrader connections on each vessel (Fig.
9) by removing the pressure transducer.
2. To determine pumpout storage tank pressure, a 30 in.
-0-400 psi (-101-0-2769 kPa) gage is attached to the storage tank.
3. Refer to Fig. 29, 30, and 36 for valve locations and
numbers.

Manual Guide Vane Operation — It is possible to
manually operate the guide vanes in order to check control
operation or to control the guide vanes in an emergency. Manual operation is possible by overriding the target guide vane
position. Access the COMPRESS screen on the CVC/ICVC
and scroll down to highlight TARGET GUIDE VANE POS. To
control the position, use the INCREASE or DECREASE
softkey to adjust to the percentage of guide vane opening that is
desired. Zero percent is fully closed; 100% is fully open. To
release the guide vanes to automatic control, press the
RELEASE softkey.
NOTE: Manual control overrides the configured pulldown rate
during start-up and permits the guide vanes to open at a faster
rate. Motor current above the electrical demand setting, capacity overrides, and chilled water temperature below the control
point override the manual target and close the guide vanes. For
descriptions of capacity overrides and set points, see the Controls section.
Refrigeration Log — A refrigeration log (as shown in
Fig. 34), is a convenient checklist for routine inspection and
maintenance and provides a continuous record of chiller performance. It is also an aid when scheduling routine maintenance and diagnosing chiller problems.
Keep a record of the chiller pressures, temperatures, and liquid
levels on a sheet similar to the one in Fig. 34. Automatic
recording of PIC II data is possible by using CCN devices such
as the Data Collection module and a Building Supervisor.
Contact a Carrier representative for more information.

Refrigerant Properties — The standard refrigerant for
the 19XR chiller is HFC-134a. At normal atmospheric pressure, HFC-134a will boil at –14 F (–25 C) and must, therefore,
be kept in pressurized containers or storage tanks. The refrigerant is practically odorless when mixed with air and is noncombustible at atmospheric pressure. Read the Material Safety
Data Sheet and the latest ASHRAE Safety Guide for Mechanical Refrigeration to learn more about safe handling of this
refrigerant.

HFC-134a will dissolve oil and some nonmetallic materials, dry the skin, and, in heavy concentrations, may displace enough oxygen to cause asphyxiation. When
handling this refrigerant, protect the hands and eyes and
avoid breathing fumes.

Adding Refrigerant — Follow the procedures described in Trim Refrigerant Charge section, page 72.

Always use the compressor pumpdown function in the
Control Test table to turn on the cooler pump and lock out

Removing Refrigerant — If the optional pumpout system is used, the 19XR refrigerant charge may be transferred to
a pumpout storage tank or to the chiller condenser or cooler
vessels. Follow the procedures in the Pumpout and Refrigerant
Transfer Procedures section when transferring refrigerant from
one vessel to another.

Adjusting the Refrigerant Charge — If the addition or removal of refrigerant is required to improve chiller performance, follow the procedures given under the Trim Refrigerant Charge section, page 72.
Refrigerant Leak Testing — Because HFC-134a is
above atmospheric pressure at room temperature, leak testing
can be performed with refrigerant in the chiller. Use an electronic halide leak detector, soap bubble solution, or ultrasonic
leak detector. Ensure that the room is well ventilated and free
from concentration of refrigerant to keep false readings to a
minimum. Before making any necessary repairs to a leak,
transfer all refrigerant from the leaking vessel.

HFC-134a should not be mixed with air or oxygen and
pressurized for leak testing. In general, this refrigerant
should not be present with high concentrations of air or
oxygen above atmospheric pressures, because the mixture
can undergo combustion.
TESTING WITH REFRIGERANT TRACER — Use an environmentally acceptable refrigerant as a tracer for leak test
procedures. Use dry nitrogen to raise the machine pressure to
leak testing levels.
TESTING WITHOUT REFRIGERANT TRACER — Another method of leak testing is to pressurize with nitrogen only
and to use a soap bubble solution or an ultrasonic leak detector
to determine if leaks are present.
TO PRESSURIZE WITH DRY NITROGEN
NOTE: Pressurizing with dry nitrogen for leak testing should
not be done if the full refrigerant charge is in the vessel
because purging the nitrogen is very difficult.
1. Connect a copper tube from the pressure regulator on the
cylinder to the refrigerant charging valve. Never apply
full cylinder pressure to the pressurizing line. Follow the
listed sequence.
2. Open the charging valve fully.
3. Slowly open the cylinder regulating valve.
4. Observe the pressure gage on the chiller and close the
regulating valve when the pressure reaches test level. Do
not exceed 140 psig (965 kPa).
5. Close the charging valve on the chiller. Remove the copper tube if it is no longer required.

Fig. 37 —Guide Vane Actuator Linkage

To remove any excess refrigerant, follow the procedure in
Transfer Refrigerant from Chiller to Pumpout Storage Tank
section, Steps 1a and b, page 70.

WEEKLY MAINTENANCE
Check the Lubrication System — Mark the oil level on the reservoir sight glass, and observe the level each week
while the chiller is shut down.
If the level goes below the lower sight glass, check the oil
reclaim system for proper operation. If additional oil is required, add it through the oil drain charging valve (Fig. 2). A
pump is required when adding oil against refrigerant pressure.
The oil charge for the 19XR compressor depends on the compressor Frame size:
• Frame 2 compressor — 5 gal (18.9 L)
• Frame 3 compressor — 8 gal (30 L)
• Frame 4 compressor — 10 gal (37.8 L)
• Frame 5 compressor — 18 gal (67.8 L)
The added oil must meet Carrier specifications for the
19XR. Refer to Changing Oil Filter and Oil Changes section
on page 73. Any additional oil that is added should be logged
by noting the amount and date. Any oil that is added due to oil
loss that is not related to service will eventually return to the
sump. It must be removed when the level is high.
An oil heater is controlled by the PIC II to maintain oil temperature (see the Controls section) when the compressor is off.
The CVC/ICVC COMPRESS screen displays whether the
heater is energized or not. The heater is energized if the OIL
HEATER RELAY parameter reads ON. If the PIC II shows that
the heater is energized and if the sump is still not heating up,
the power to the oil heater may be off or the oil level may be
too low. Check the oil level, the oil heater contactor voltage,
and oil heater resistance.
The PIC II does not permit compressor start-up if the oil
temperature is too low. The PIC II continues with start-up only
after the temperature is within allowable limits.

Repair the Leak, Retest, and Apply Standing
Vacuum Test — After pressurizing the chiller, test for
leaks with an electronic halide leak detector, soap bubble solution, or an ultrasonic leak detector. Bring the chiller back to atmospheric pressure, repair any leaks found, and retest.
After retesting and finding no leaks, apply a standing vacuum test. Then dehydrate the chiller. Refer to the Standing Vacuum Test and Chiller Dehydration section (pages 50 and 53) in
the Before Initial Start-Up section.

Checking Guide Vane Linkage — When the chiller
is off, the guide vanes are closed and the actuator mechanism is
in the position shown in Fig. 37. If slack develops in the drive
chain, do the following to eliminate backlash:
1. With the chiller shut down and the actuator fully closed,
remove the chain guard and loosen the actuator bracket
hold-down bolts.
2. Loosen guide vane sprocket adjusting bolts.
3. Pry bracket upwards to remove slack, then retighten the
bracket hold-down bolts.
4. Retighten the guide vane sprocket adjusting bolts. Ensure
that the guide vane shaft is rotated fully in the clockwise
direction in order close it fully.
Trim Refrigerant Charge — If, to obtain optimal chiller performance, it becomes necessary to adjust the refrigerant
charge, operate the chiller at design load and then add or remove refrigerant slowly until the difference between the leaving chilled water temperature and the cooler refrigerant temperature reaches design conditions or becomes a minimum. Do
not overcharge.
Refrigerant may be added either through the storage tank or
directly into the chiller as described in the Charge Refrigerant
into Chiller section.

72

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE

10. Remove the hose from the charging valve, open the isolation valves to the filter housing, and turn on the power to
the pump and the motor.

Establish a regular maintenance schedule based on your actual chiller requirements such as chiller load, run hours, and
water quality. The time intervals listed in this section are
offered as guides to service only.

Oil Specification — If oil is added, it must meet the following Carrier specifications:
Oil Type for units using R-134a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Inhibited
polyolester-based synthetic
compressor oil formatted for
use with HFC, gear-driven,
hermetic compressors.
ISO Viscosity Grade . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 68
The polyolester-based oil (P/N: PP23BZ103) may be
ordered from your local Carrier representative.

Service Ontime — The CVC/ICVC will display a SERVICE ONTIME value on the MAINSTAT screen. This value
should be reset to zero by the service person or the operator
each time major service work is completed so that the time
between service can be viewed and tracked.

Inspect the Control Panel — Maintenance consists of
general cleaning and tightening of connections. Vacuum the
cabinet to eliminate dust build-up. If the chiller control malfunctions, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide section for control checks and adjustments.

Oil Changes — Carrier recommends changing the oil after the first year of operation and every five years thereafter as
a minimum in addition to a yearly oil analysis. However, if a
continuous oil monitoring system is functioning and a yearly
oil analysis is performed, the time between oil changes can be
extended.
TO CHANGE THE OIL
1. Transfer the refrigerant into the chiller condenser vessel
(for isolatable vessels) or to a pumpout storage tank.
2. Mark the existing oil level.
3. Open the control and oil heater circuit breaker.
4. When the chiller pressure is 5 psig (34 kPa) or less, drain
the oil reservoir by opening the oil charging valve
(Fig. 2). Slowly open the valve against refrigerant
pressure.
5. Change the oil filter at this time. See Changing Oil Filter
section.
6. Change the refrigerant filter at this time, see the next section, Refrigerant Filter.
7. Charge the chiller with oil. Charge until the oil level is
equal to the oil level marked in Step 2. Turn on the power
to the oil heater and let the PIC II warm it up to at least
140 F (60 C). Operate the oil pump manually, using the
Control Test function, for 2 minutes. For shutdown conditions, the oil level should be full in the lower sight glass.
If the oil level is above 1/2 full in the upper sight glass, remove the excess oil. The oil level should now be equal to
the amount shown in Step 2.

Ensure power to the control center is off when cleaning and
tightening connections inside the control panel.

Check Safety and Operating Controls Monthly —
To ensure chiller protection, the automated Control Test
should be performed at least once per month. See Table 3
for safety control settings. See Table 9 for Control Test
functions.

Changing Oil Filter — Change the oil filter on a
yearly basis or when the chiller is opened for repairs. The
19XR has an isolatable oil filter so that the filter may be
changed with the refrigerant remaining in the chiller. Use
the following procedure:
1. Ensure the compressor is off and the disconnect for the
compressor is open.
2. Disconnect the power to the oil pump.
3. Close the oil filter isolation valves located behind power
panel on top of oil pump assembly.
4. Connect an oil charging hose from the oil charging valve
(Fig. 2) and place the other end in a clean container suitable for used oil. The oil drained from the filter housing
should be used as an oil sample and sent to a laboratory
for proper analysis. Do not contaminate this sample.
5. Slowly open the charging valve to drain the oil from the
housing.

Refrigerant Filter — A refrigerant filter/drier, located on
the refrigerant cooling line to the motor, should be changed
once a year or more often if filter condition indicates a need for
more frequent replacement. Change the filter by closing the filter isolation valves (Fig. 4) and slowly opening the flare fittings
with a wrench and back-up wrench to relieve the pressure. A
moisture indicator sight glass is located beyond this filter to indicate the volume and moisture in the refrigerant. If the moisture indicator indicates moisture, locate the source of water immediately by performing a thorough leak check.

The oil filter housing is at a high pressure. Relieve this
pressure slowly.
6. Once all oil has been drained, place some rags or absorbent material under the oil filter housing to catch any
drips once the filter is opened. Remove the 4 bolts from
the end of the filter housing and remove the filter cover.
7. Remove the filter retainer by unscrewing the retainer nut.
The filter may now be removed and disposed of properly.
8. Replace the old filter with a new filter. Install the filter retainer and tighten down the retainer nut. Install the filter
cover and tighten the 4 bolts.
9. Evacuate the filter housing by placing a vacuum pump on
the charging valve. Follow the normal evacuation procedures. Shut the charging valve when done and reconnect
the valve so that new oil can be pumped into the filter
housing. Fill with the same amount that was removed;
then close the charging valve.

Oil Reclaim Filter — The oil reclaim system has a
strainer on the eductor suction line, a strainer on the discharge
pressure line, and a filter on the cooler scavenging line.
Replace the filter once per year or more often if filter condition
indicates a need for more frequent replacement. Change the filter by closing the filter isolation valves and slowly opening the
flare fitting with a wrench and back-up wrench to relieve the
pressure. Change the strainers once every 5 years or whenever
refrigerant is evacuated from the cooler.

73

Inspect Refrigerant Float System — Perform this

Compressor Bearing and Gear Maintenance —

inspection every 5 years or when the condenser is opened for
service.
1. Transfer the refrigerant into the cooler vessel or into a
pumpout storage tank.
2. Remove the float access cover.
3. Clean the chamber and valve assembly thoroughly. Be
sure the valve moves freely. Ensure that all openings are
free of obstructions.
4. Examine the cover gasket and replace if necessary.
See Fig. 38 for a view of the float valve design. For linear
float valve designs, inspect the orientation of the float slide
pin. It must be pointed toward the bubbler tube for proper
operation.

The key to good bearing and gear maintenance is proper
lubrication. Use the proper grade of oil, maintained at recommended level, temperature, and pressure. Inspect the
lubrication system regularly and thoroughly.
To inspect the bearings, a complete compressor teardown is
required. Only a trained service technician should remove and
examine the bearings. The cover plate on older compressor
bases was used for factory-test purposes and is not usable
for bearing or gear inspection. The bearings and gears should
be examined on a scheduled basis for signs of wear. The
frequency of examination is determined by the hours of chiller
operation, load conditions during operation, and the condition
of the oil and the lubrication system. Excessive bearing wear
can sometimes be detected through increased vibration or
increased bearing temperature. If either symptom appears, contact an experienced and responsible service organization for
assistance.

Inspect Relief Valves and Piping — The relief valves
on this chiller protect the system against the potentially dangerous effects of overpressure. To ensure against damage to the
equipment and possible injury to personnel, these devices must
be kept in peak operating condition.
As a minimum, the following maintenance is required.
1. At least once a year, disconnect the vent piping at the
valve outlet and carefully inspect the valve body and
mechanism for any evidence of internal corrosion or rust,
dirt, scale, leakage, etc.
2. If corrosion or foreign material is found, do not attempt to
repair or recondition. Replace the valve.
3. If the chiller is installed in a corrosive atmosphere or the
relief valves are vented into a corrosive atmosphere, inspect the relief valves at more frequent intervals.

Inspect the Heat Exchanger Tubes and Flow
Devices
COOLER AND FLOW DEVICES — Inspect and clean the
cooler tubes at the end of the first operating season. Because
these tubes have internal ridges, a rotary-type tube cleaning
system is needed to fully clean the tubes. Inspect the tubes’
condition to determine the scheduled frequency for future
cleaning and to determine whether water treatment in the
chilled water/brine circuit is adequate. Inspect the entering and
leaving chilled water temperature sensors and flow devices for
signs of corrosion or scale. Replace a sensor or Schrader fitting
if corroded or remove any scale if found.
CONDENSER AND FLOW DEVICES — Since this water
circuit is usually an open-type system, the tubes may be subject
to contamination and scale. Clean the condenser tubes with a
rotary tube cleaning system at least once per year and more often if the water is contaminated. Inspect the entering and leaving condenser water sensors and flow devices for signs of corrosion or scale. Replace the sensor or Schrader fitting if corroded or remove any scale if found.
Higher than normal condenser pressures, together with the
inability to reach full refrigeration load, usually indicate dirty
tubes or air in the chiller. If the refrigeration log indicates a rise
above normal condenser pressures, check the condenser refrigerant temperature against the leaving condenser water temperature. If this reading is more than what the design difference is
supposed to be, the condenser tubes may be dirty or water flow
may be incorrect. Because HFC-134a is a high-pressure refrigerant, air usually does not enter the chiller.
During the tube cleaning process, use brushes specially designed to avoid scraping and scratching the tube wall. Contact
your Carrier representative to obtain these brushes. Do not use
wire brushes.

Hard scale may require chemical treatment for its prevention or removal. Consult a water treatment specialist for
proper treatment.

Water Leaks — The refrigerant moisture indicator on the
refrigerant motor cooling line (Fig. 2) indicates whether there
is water leakage during chiller operation. Water leaks should be
repaired immediately.

The chiller must be dehydrated after repair of water leaks.
See Chiller Dehydration section, page 53.

Fig. 38 — 19XR Float Valve Design

74

Water Treatment — Untreated or improperly treated water may result in corrosion, scaling, erosion, or algae. The services of a qualified water treatment specialist should be obtained to develop and monitor a treatment program.

OPTIONAL PUMPOUT COMPRESSOR OIL CHARGE —
Use oil conforming to Carrier specifications for reciprocating compressor usage. Oil requirements are as follows:
ISO Viscosity . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 68
Carrier Part Number . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . PP23BZ103
The total oil charge, 4.5 pints (2.6 L), consists of 3.5 pints
(2.0 L) for the compressor and one additional pint (0.6 L) for
the oil separator.
Oil should be visible in one of the compressor sight glasses
during both operation and at shutdown. Always check the oil
level before operating the compressor. Before adding or changing oil, relieve the refrigerant pressure as follows:
1. Attach a pressure gage to the gage port of either compressor service valve (Fig. 36).
2. Close the suction service valve and open the discharge
line to the storage tank or the chiller.
3. Operate the compressor until the crankcase pressure
drops to 2 psig (13 kPa).
4. Stop the compressor and isolate the system by closing the
discharge service valve.
5. Slowly remove the oil return line connection (Fig. 36).
Add oil as required.
6. Replace the connection and reopen the compressor service valves.
OPTIONAL PUMPOUT SAFETY CONTROL SETTINGS
(Fig. 39) — The optional pumpout system high-pressure
switch opens at 161 psig (1110 kPa) and closes at 130 psig
(896 kPa). Check the switch setting by operating the pumpout
compressor and slowly throttling the pumpout condenser
water.
Ordering Replacement Chiller Parts — When
ordering Carrier specified parts, the following information
must accompany an order:
• chiller model number and serial number
• name, quantity, and part number of the part required
• delivery address and method of shipment.

Water must be within design flow limits, clean, and treated
to ensure proper chiller performance and reduce the potential of tube damage due to corrosion, scaling, erosion, and
algae. Carrier assumes no responsibility for chiller damage
resulting from untreated or improperly treated water.

Inspect the Starting Equipment — Before working
on any starter, shut off the chiller, open and tag all disconnects
supplying power to the starter.

The disconnect on the starter front panel does not deenergize all internal circuits. Open all internal and remote disconnects before servicing the starter.

Never open isolating knife switches while equipment is
operating. Electrical arcing can cause serious injury.
Inspect starter contact surfaces for wear or pitting on
mechanical-type starters. Do not sandpaper or file silverplated
contacts. Follow the starter manufacturer’s instructions for
contact replacement, lubrication, spare parts ordering, and other maintenance requirements.
Periodically vacuum or blow off accumulated debris on the
internal parts with a high-velocity, low-pressure blower.
Power connections on newly installed starters may relax
and loosen after a month of operation. Turn power off and retighten. Recheck annually thereafter.

Loose power connections can cause voltage spikes, overheating, malfunctioning, or failures.

Check Pressure Transducers — Once a year, the
pressure transducers should be checked against a pressure gage
reading. Check all eight transducers: the 2 oil differential pressure transducers, the condenser pressure transducer, the cooler
pressure transducer, and the waterside pressure transducers
(consisting of 4 flow devices: 2 cooler, 2 condenser).
Note the evaporator and condenser pressure readings on the
HEAT_EX screen on the CVC/ICVC (EVAPORATOR PRESSURE and CONDENSER PRESSURE). Attach an accurate set
of refrigeration gages to the cooler and condenser Schrader fittings. Compare the two readings. If there is a difference in
readings, the transducer can be calibrated as described in the
Troubleshooting Guide section. Oil differential pressure (OIL
PUMP DELTA P on the COMPRESS screen) should be zero
whenever the compressor is off.

Optional Pumpout System Maintenance — For
pumpout unit compressor maintenance details, refer to the
06D, 07D Installation, Start-Up, and Service Instructions.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

VOLTAGE DROP — The voltage drop across any energized
sensor can be measured with a digital voltmeter while the control is energized. Table 12A or 12B lists the relationship between temperature and sensor voltage drop (volts dc measured
across the energized sensor). Exercise care when measuring
voltage to prevent damage to the sensor leads, connector plugs,
and modules. Sensors should also be checked at the sensor
plugs. Check the sensor wire at the sensor for 5 vdc if the control is powered on.

Overview — The PIC II has many features to help the operator and technician troubleshoot a 19XR chiller.
• The CVC/ICVC shows the chiller’s actual operating conditions and can be viewed while the unit is running.
• The CVC/ICVC default screen freezes when an alarm
occurs. The freeze enables the operator to view the
chiller conditions at the time of alarm. The STATUS
screens continue to show current information. Once all
alarms have been cleared (by correcting the problems
and pressing the RESET softkey), the CVC/ICVC
default screen returns to normal operation.
• The CONTROL ALGORITHM STATUS screens (which
include the CAPACITY, OVERRIDE, LL_MAINT,
ISM_HIST,
LOADSHED,
WSMDEFME,
and
OCCDEFCM screens) display information that helps to
diagnose problems with chilled water temperature
control, chilled water temperature control overrides, hot
gas bypass, surge algorithm status, and time schedule
operation.
• The control test feature facilitates the proper operation
and test of temperature sensors, pressure transducers, the
guide vane actuator, oil pump, water pumps, tower control, and other on/off outputs while the compressor is
stopped. It also has the ability to lock off the compressor
and turn on water pumps for pumpout operation. The
CVC/ICVC shows the temperatures and pressures
required during these operations.
• From other SERVICE tables, the operator/technician can
access configured items, such as chilled water resets,
override set points, etc.
• If an operating fault is detected, an alarm message is generated and displayed on the CVC/ICVC default screen.
A more detailed message — along with a diagnostic
message — is also stored into the ALARM HISTORY
table.

Relieve all refrigerant pressure or drain the water before
replacing the temperature sensors.
CHECK SENSOR ACCURACY — Place the sensor in a
medium of known temperature and compare that temperature
to the measured reading. The thermometer used to determine
the temperature of the medium should be of laboratory quality
with 0.5° F (.25° C) graduations. The sensor in question should
be accurate to within 2° F (1.2° C).
See Fig. 9 for sensor locations. The sensors are immersed
directly in the refrigerant or water circuits. The wiring at each
sensor is easily disconnected by unlatching the connector.
These connectors allow only one-way connection to the sensor.
When installing a new sensor, apply a pipe sealant or thread
sealant to the sensor threads.
DUAL TEMPERATURE SENSORS — For servicing convenience, there are 2 sensors each on the bearing and motor
temperature sensors. If one of the sensors is damaged, the other
can be used by simply moving a wire. The number 2 terminal
in the sensor terminal box is the common line. To use the second sensor, move the wire from the number 1 position to the
number 3 position.

Checking Pressure Transducers
UNITS EQUIPPED WITH CVC — There are 8 pressure
transducers on 19XR chillers. They determine cooler, condenser, oil pressure, and cooler and condenser flow. The cooler and
condenser transducers are also used by the PIC II to determine
the refrigerant temperatures. The oil supply pressure transducer
value and the oil transmission sump pressure transducer value
difference is calculated by the CCM. The CVC module then
displays the differential pressure. In effect, the CVC reads only
one input for oil pressure for a total of 5 pressure inputs: cooler
pressure, condenser pressure, oil differential pressure, cooler
waterside differential pressure, and condenser waterside differential pressure. See the Check Pressure Transducers section
(page 75) under Scheduled Maintenance.
UNITS EQUIPPED WITH ICVC — There are 6 factoryinstalled pressure transducers, with inputs available for both
cooler and The ICVC software will display a default reading of
26 psi during start-up and operation. An additional transducer,
factory installed in the bottom of the cooler barrel, will read as
EVAPORATOR SACTURATION TEMP on the HEAT_EX
DISPLAY screen. This provides additional protection against a
loss of water flow condition.
These pressure transducers can be calibrated if necessary. It
is not usually necessary to calibrate at initial start-up.
However, at high altitude locations, it is necessary to calibrate
the transducers to ensure the proper refrigerant temperature/
pressure relationship. Each transducer is supplied with 5 vdc
power from the CCM. If the power supply fails, a transducer
voltage reference alarm occurs. If the transducer reading is
suspected of being faulty, check the supply voltage. It should
be 5 vdc ±.5 v displayed in CONTROL TEST under CCM
Pressure Transducers. If the supply voltage is correct, the transducer should be recalibrated or replaced.

Checking Display Messages — The first area to
check when troubleshooting the 19XR is the CVC/ICVC display. If the alarm light is flashing, check the primary and secondary message lines on the CVC/ICVC default screen
(Fig. 14). These messages will indicate where the fault is occurring. These messages 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/
ICVC SERVICE menu also contains an alarm message to further expand on the alarm. For a complete list of possible alarm
messages, see Table 11. 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 temperature
sensors are thermistor-type sensors. This means that the resistance of the sensor varies with temperature. All sensors have
the same resistance characteristics. If the controls are on, determine sensor temperature by measuring voltage drop; if the controls are powered off, determine sensor temperature by measuring resistance. Compare the readings to the values listed in
Table 12A or 12B.
RESISTANCE CHECK — Turn off the control power and,
from the module, disconnect the terminal plug of the sensor in
question. With a digital ohmmeter, measure sensor resistance
between receptacles as designated by the wiring diagram. The
resistance and corresponding temperature are listed in
Table 12A or 12B. Check the resistance of both wires to
ground. This resistance should be infinite.

76

Control Test — The Control Test feature can check all the

TRANSDUCER REPLACEMENT — Since the transducers
are mounted on Schrader-type fittings, there is no need to remove refrigerant from the vessel when replacing the transducers. Disconnect the transducer wiring. Do not pull on the transducer wires. Unscrew the transducer from the Schrader fitting.
When installing a new transducer, do not use pipe sealer
(which can plug the sensor). Put the plug connector back on the
sensor and snap into place. Check for refrigerant leaks.

thermistor temperature sensors, pressure transducers, pumps
and their associated flow devices, the guide vane actuator, and
other control outputs such as hot gas bypass. The tests can help
to determine whether a switch is defective or a pump relay is
not operating, as well as other useful troubleshooting issues.
During pumpdown operations, the pumps are energized to prevent freeze-up and the vessel pressures and temperatures are
displayed. The Pumpdown/Lockout feature prevents compressor start-up when there is no refrigerant in the chiller or if the
vessels are isolated. The Terminate Lockout feature ends the
Pumpdown/Lockout after the pumpdown procedure is reversed
and refrigerant is added.

Be sure to use a back-up wrench on the Schrader fitting
whenever removing a transducer, since the Schrader fitting
may back out with the transducer, causing a large leak and
possible injury to personnel.

Control Modules

Notes on Module Operation
1. The chiller operator monitors and modifies configurations in the microprocessor by using the 4 softkeys and
the CVC/ICVC. Communications between the CVC/
ICVC and the CCM is accomplished through the SIO
(Sensor Input/Output) bus, which is a phone cable. The
communication between the CCM and ISM is accomplished through the sensor bus, which is a 3-wire cable.
2. If a green LED is on continuously, check the communication wiring. If a green LED is off, check the red LED
operation. If the red LED is normal, check the module
address switches (SW1) (Fig. 40 and 41). Confirm all
switches are in OFF position.
All system operating intelligence resides in the CVC/
ICVC. Some safety shutdown logic resides in the ISM in
case communications are lost between the ISM and CVC/
ICVC. Outputs are controlled by the CCM and ISM as
well.
3. Power is supplied to the modules within the control panel
via 24-vac power sources.
The transformers are located within the power panel, with
the exception of the ISM, which operates from a 115-vac
power source and has its own 24-vac transformer located
in the module.
In the power panel, T1 supplies power to the compressor
oil heater, oil pump, and optional hot gas bypass, and T2
supplies power to both the CVC/ICVC and CCM.
Power is connected to Plug J1 on each module.

Turn controller power off before servicing controls. This
ensures safety and prevents damage to the controller.
The CVC/ICVC, CCM, and ISM modules perform continuous diagnostic evaluations of the hardware to determine its
condition. Proper operation of all modules is indicated by
LEDs (light-emitting diodes) located on the circuit board of the
CVC/ICVC, CCM, and ISM.
There is one green LED located on the CCM and ISM
boards respectively, and one red LED located on the CVC/
ICVC, CCM, and ISM boards respectively.
RED LED (Labeled as STAT) — If the red LED:
• blinks continuously at a 2-second interval, the module is
operating properly
• is lit continuously, there is a problem that requires
replacing the module
• is off continuously, the power should be checked
• blinks 3 times per second, a software error has been discovered and the module must be replaced
If there is no input power, check the fuses and circuit breaker. If the fuse is good, check for a shorted secondary of the
transformer or, if power is present to the module, replace the

Replacing Defective Processor Modules —

Solid-State Starters — Troubleshooting information pertaining to the Benshaw, Inc., solid-state starter may be found
in the following paragraphs and in the Carrier RediStart
MICRO™ Instruction Manual supplied by the starter vendor.
Attempt to solve the problem by using the following preliminary checks before consulting the troubleshooting tables found
in the Benshaw manual.

The module replacement part number is printed on a small
label on the rear of the CVC/ICVC module. The chiller model
and serial numbers are printed on the chiller nameplate located
on an exterior corner post. The proper software is factoryinstalled by Carrier in the replacement module. When ordering
a replacement chiller visual control (CVC/ICVC) module,
specify the complete replacement part number, full chiller
model number, and chiller serial number. The installer must
configure the new module to the original chiller data. Follow
the procedures described in the Software Configuration section
on page 55.

1. Motor terminals or starter output lugs or wire should
not be touched without disconnecting the incoming
power supply. The silicon control rectifiers (SCRs)
although technically turned off still have AC mains
potential on the output of the starter.
2. Power is present on all yellow wiring throughout the
system even though the main circuit breaker in the
unit is off.

Electrical shock can cause personal injury. Disconnect all
electrical power before servicing.
INSTALLATION
1. Verify the existing CVC/ICVC module is defective by using the procedure described in the Troubleshooting Guide
section, page 76, and the Control Modules section,
page 87. Do not select the ATTACH TO NETWORK
DEVICE table if the CVC/ICVC indicates a communication failure.
2. Data regarding the CVC/ICVC configuration should have
been recorded and saved. This data must be reconfigured
into the new CVC/ICVC. If this data is not available, follow the procedures described in the Software Configuration section.
If a CCN Building Supervisor or Service Tool is available, the module configuration should have already been
uploaded into memory. When the new module is installed, the configuration can be downloaded from the
computer.
Any communication wires from other chillers or CCN
modules should be disconnected to prevent the new
CVC/ICVC module from uploading incorrect run hours
into memory.
3. To install this module, record values for the TOTAL
COMPRESSOR STARTS and the COMPRESSOR
ONTIME from the MAINSTAT screen on the CVC/
ICVC.
4. Power off the controls.
5. Remove the old CVC/ICVC.
6. Install the new CVC/ICVC module. Turn the control
power back on.

With power off:
• Inspect for physical damage and signs of arcing, overheating, etc.
• Verify the wiring to the starter is correct.
• Verify all connections in the starter are tight.
• Check the control transformer fuses.
TESTING SILICON CONTROL RECTIFIERS IN THE
BENSHAW, INC., SOLID-STATE STARTERS — If an SCR
is suspected of being defective, use the following procedure as
part of a general troubleshooting guide.
1. Verify power is applied.
2. Verify the state of each SCR light-emitting diode (LED)
on the micropower card.
NOTE: All LEDs should be lit. If any red or green side of
these LEDs is not lit, the line voltage is not present or one
or more SCRs has failed.
3. Check incoming power. If voltage is not present check
the incoming line. If voltage is present, proceed to Steps 4
through 11.
NOTE: If after completing Steps 4 - 11 all measurements
are within specified limits, the SCRs are functioning normally. If after completing Steps 4 - 11 resistance measurements are outside the specified limits, the motor leads on
the starter power lugs T1 through T6 should be removed
and the steps repeated. This will identify if abnormal resistance measurements are being influenced by the motor
windings.
4. Remove power from the starter unit.

Care must be taken to prevent nut rotation while tightening
the bolts. If the nut rotates while tightening the bolt, SCR
replacement must be started over.

If all measured values are greater than 5K ohms, proceed
to Step 10. If any values are less than 5K ohms, one or
more of the SCRs in that pair is shorted.
Remove both SCRs in the pair (See SCR Removal/
Installation).
Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance (anode to
cathode) of each SCR to determine which device has
failed.
NOTE: Both SCRs may be defective, but typically, only
one is shorted. If both SCRs provide acceptable resistance
measurements, proceed to Step 10.
Replace the defective SCR(s).
Retest the “pair” for resistance values indicated above.
On the right side of the firing card, measure the resistance
between the red and white gate/cathode leads for each
SCR (1 through 6). A measurement between 5 and
50 ohms is normal. Abnormally high values may indicate
a failed gate for that SCR.

6. Reconnect the red (cathode) wire from the SCR and the
white (anode-gate) wire to the appropriate location on the
firing card (i.e., SCR1 wires to firing card terminal
G1-white wire, and K1-red wire).
7. Reconnect all other wiring and bus work.
8. Return starter to normal operation.

If any red or white SCR gate leads are removed from the
firing card or an SCR, care must be taken to ensure the
leads are replaced EXACTLY as they were (white wires to
gates, and red wires to cathodes on both the firing card and
SCR), or damage to the starter and/or motor may result.
11. Replace the SCRs and retest the pair.
SCR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION — Refer to Fig. 43.
1. Remove the SCR by loosening the clamping bolts on
each side of the SCR,
2. After the SCR has been removed and the bus work is
loose, apply a thin coat of either silicon based thermal
joint compound or a joint compound for aluminum or
copper wire connections to the contact surfaces of the replacement SCR. This allows for improved heat dissipation and electrical conductivity.
3. Place the SCR between the roll pins on the heatsink
assemblies so the roll pins fit into the small holes in each
side of the SCR.
NOTE: Ensure the SCR is installed so the cathode side is
the side from which the red wire extends. The heatsink is
labeled to show the correct orientation.
4. Hand tighten the bolts until the SCR contacts the
heatsink.
