Product introduction 7.1 Product description The Control HVAC is designed to optimise pump operation in variable-primary-flow systems, as part of air-conditioning systems. It controls speed-controlled pumps and a bypass valve placed between the flow pipe and return pipe of the air-handling zones. According to the demand from the air-handling zones, the Control HVAC operates the pumps in the most efficient way. Additionally, when the demand is too low, the controller adjusts the opening of the bypass valve to ensure a minimum flow through the operating chillers. The Control HVAC can support the following: eight speed-controlled pumps: Grundfos E-pumps, Grundfos pumps with CUE or other pumps with VFD (0-10 V) eight chillers 26 air-handling zones. The main cabinet supports the connection to two differentialpressure sensors for air-handling zones. More sensors can be connected via up to three subcabinets connected to the main cabinet via an EtherCAT cable. 7.2 System control The air-handling zones, chillers and isolating valves are controlled by a building management system. The Control HVAC controls the pumps and the bypass valve, based on the feedback from the sensors and isolating valves of the chillers. The cooling load from the air-handling zones determines the number of chillers in operation. According to the number of chillers in operation, the controller adapts the pump operation to maintain a differential flow across the chillers within the allowed range. The controller then adjusts the pump operation further to reach the demand from the air-handling zone with the largest difference between its reference and its actual value. When the flow demand from the zones is lower than the minimum flow rate required across the chillers, the controller opens the bypass valve and hence maintains a minimum flow through the chillers. Fig. 14 Variable-primary-flow system with three pumps, three chillers and three air-handling zones 7.3 Pump cascade control The Control HVAC is designed to control Grundfos E-pumps and CUE frequency converters, as well as other types of pumps with variable frequency drives (VFD). The performance is adjusted to the demand through cutting pumps in or out and through parallel control of the pumps in operation. The Control HVAC maintains a constant pressure through continuous adjustment of the speed of the pumps. Pump changeover is automatic and depends on load, operating hours and fault. All operating pumps run at the same speed. The number of pumps in operation also depends on the energy consumption of the pumps. If only one pump is required, two pumps will run at a lower speed if this results in a lower energy consumption. Examples of operation with one and three E-pumps: H H set Fig. 15 One E-pump in operation H H set Fig. 16 Three E-pumps in operation T F Pump start, stop, cut-out and cut-in speeds When the speed of the operating pumps reaches the cut-in speed, a new pump is cut in. The pump starts at its start speed and accelerates until it reaches the speed of the operating pumps. This is called ramp up. When the speed of the operating pumps reaches the cut-out speed, a pump is cut out. The pump decelerates until it reaches its stop speed and stops. This is called ramp down.

11 7.4 Control of the bypass valve The controller takes the characteristics of the bypass valve into consideration when adjusting the valve position Gamma There are two types of bypass valve: linear and equal percentage. Linear valves open linearly from 0 to 100 %, whereas equal percentage valves open exponentially. This exponential characteristic, called gamma, can be different from valve to valve, and the controller takes this into consideration when calculating the valve position Deadband When the differential pressure measured across the air-handling zones differs from the reference value, the controller adjusts the position of the bypass valve in order for the measured pressure to reach the reference. In order to prevent the bypass valve from opening and closing too frequently, which could wear the valve, the controller does not adjust the valve position within a certain deviation between the reference and the measured value. This deviation is called deadband. Example A system has three zone sensors with reference values of 2, 3 and 4 bar. If the deadband has been set to 0.4 bar, the bypass valve does not react when the measured value is between 3.6 and 4.4 bar. Note: The reference for the controller is the zone with the largest difference between its reference value and the its actual value Gain factor The gain factor determines how quickly the bypass valve reacts to a change in the differential pressure measured across the airhandling zones. The higher the gain factor, the faster the bypass valve reacts. A high gain factor may, however, result in a unstable system. 7.5 Controller reaction time The system includes a standard proportional-integral (PI) controller which ensures that the pressure is stable and corresponds to the setpoint. It involves two parameters that can be adjusted to obtain a faster or slower reaction to changes of consumption, i.e. the gain (Kp) and the integral time (Ti). To obtain a faster reaction, increase Kp and reduce Ti. To obtain a slower reaction, reduce Kp and increase Ti. Setting range of main controller Gain Kp: Integral time Ti: 2 to 80 seconds. Setting range of pump controller Gain Kp: Integral time Ti: 0.1 to 20 seconds. 7.6 Type key Example: Control HVAC 3x x380 Type 3R OPT Type range Number of pumps (2x - 8x) Current range of pumps in Ampere (A) Supply voltage Panel type: Type 3R (UL) or IP54 (IEC) OPT: Optional equipment.
