Electric Vs. Hot Gas Drain Pan


Electric Drain Pan Heater (Std)

Advantages

In this option, the drain pan surface is heated with low


wattage electric heater(s)

Lower cost solution

The electrical power requirements to the evaporator are


unchanged

Defrost is even quicker because more hot gas is available to


defrost the evaporator coil

Hot Gas Drain Pan Loop

Advantages

In this option, hot refrigerant gas passes through a loop


of copper tubing that heats the drain pan surface before it
defrosts the evaporator coil

In applications where there is limited evaporator accessibility


(ex: controlled atmosphere rooms)

Vertical Air Discharge Condensing Unit


The LDV Outdoor Discus Condensing Unit
features a leak resistant design which includes:
The Floating Tube condenser coil design.

Independent Vs. Single Power Supplies


Independent Power Supplies for
Condensing Units and Unit Coolers (Std)

Advantages

In this option, a separate high voltage power


supply is run to each evaporator and the
condensing unit

Electrician can run simple point-to-point power supplies without having to


understand the control circuit wiring

Low voltage control wiring is run between


the condensing unit and each evaporator
(including evaporator sensor, liquid solenoid
and evaporator control contactor(s)

Refrigeration contractors can generally run the low voltage wiring with
the refrigeration piping and make these wiring connections with a good
understanding of the control circuit function

Evaporator disconnect switch wiring is simplified (if required)

The condensing unit wire size and fusing requirements are minimized
because they dont include a worst-case remote evaporator load
Lower cost installation solution

Single Power Supply for Condensing Unit


Providing Power to Unit Coolers

Advantages

In this option, a power supply is run to the


condensing unit and high voltage wiring is
run from the condensing unit to power the
fan motor and drain pan heaters in each
evaporator

A benefit for retrofit situations if there is existing control wiring that can
be employed

Low voltage control wiring is run between the


condensing unit and each evaporator for the
evaporator sensor and liquid solenoid

controlled atmosphere rooms)

REFRIGERATION OPERATION
The refrigeration operation of the hot gas system
is very similar to a standard refrigeration system.
An external thermostat is connected to the hot gas
control board at the terminal block connections
labeled T-Stat and C (for common). When the
normally open contact inside the thermostat closes
(a call for cooling), the hot gas control board
responds by activating a series of solenoids and
contactors (described below) in order to initiate
and maintain a refrigeration cycle. Later, when the
thermostat contact opens, the hot gas control board
deactivates the solenoids in a preset manner in
order to safely turn off the refrigeration process and
maintain an Off condition.
At initial power up, the system defaults to the OFF
mode for a minimum of two minutes. Following
the two-minute hold off period, the control circuit
examines the state of the thermostat input. If the
thermostat input signal is activated (closed between
T-Stat and C), the system begins the refrigeration
startup process. Full refrigeration mode (or COOL
mode) is achieved when the control board has
activated the solenoids necessary to provide
refrigerant flow between the evaporator(s) and the
condensing unit (Suction Solenoid and Liquid Line
Solenoid), activated the compressor contactor,
deployed the appropriate control over the condenser
fans, and turned on the evaporator fans.
Refrigerant Solenoid and Compressor Contactor
Control: The Suction Solenoid is initially activated
following the power-up two-minute hold off time. It
is maintained in the ON state until a defrost cycle
is initiated. The timing of the liquid line solenoid
(LLS) activation is based upon the saturated suction
temperature (SST) which is calculated from the
suction pressure value. If the SST is greater than
15F, the compressor contactor is activated before
the LLS is activated in order to decrease the suction
pressure prior to startup. When the SST drops to
-5F, the LLS is activated. If the SST does not fall
to -5F within 2 minutes, Er12 is activated and the
system goes to OFF mode.
If the SST is 15F or less, the LLS is activated
immediately. When the SST rises to -10F for
medium temperature applications or -20F for low
temperature applications, the compressor contactor
is activated. If the SST fails to rise in 2 minutes,
ER11 is activated and the system goes to OFF mode.

When the thermostat signal is deactivated, the


liquid line solenoid is turned off immediately. The
compressor contactor will stay activated until the
suction pressure falls below the pre-programmed
cut out pressure. The compressor contactor and
all condenser fan contactors will be deactivated
simultaneously. The evaporator fans will continue
running.
Compressor Contactor Control: Activation of
the compressor contactor is coordinated with the
activation of the Liquid Line Solenoid (liquid line
solenoid). In order to protect the compressor from
flooding during startup, the suction pressure is
measured at the suction accumulator in order to
determine the order and timing of the compressor
contactor and liquid line solenoid activation. If the
suction pressure is above 30 psig, the compressor
is activated first in order to deplete the suction
line of refrigerant. When the pressure falls below
20 psig, the liquid line solenoid is activated. If
the suction pressure is below 30 psig, the liquid
line solenoid is activated first. When the suction
pressure rises above the pre-programmed cut in
value, the compressor is activated.
Condenser Fan Control: When the Condensing
Unit Model is selected in the Program Review
Menu; the program automatically activates the
default Head Pressure Control Scheme.
Method: Pressure Fan Cycling (PRES) All fans
Minimum condensing temperature: 65F
The default ON and OFF settings are optimized
to maximize energy efficiency while still providing
adequate pressure for the thermostatic expansion
valve(s) to work properly. The parameters are
refrigerant specific. Fans are staged to minimize
fluctuations in head pressure during operation.
During refrigeration operation, the hot gas controller
monitors liquid pressure to determine if each fan
should be ON or OFF.
These settings and other fan control options may
be modified by turning on the Expert Mode (XPRT)
in the Program Menu. See Program Review and
Optional Controls for more information.

29

Evaporator Fan Control: After initial power-up,


the evaporator fans will be turned off. When the
system initiates the first cooling cycle, the hot gas
controller monitors the temperature value of the
evaporator defrost termination sensor mounted on
the evaporator suction headers. When the controller
determines that the suction header has reached
the refreeze setpoint, the evaporator fans will be
activated. If there are two evaporators, the fans will
be energized by the first sensor to achieve setpoint.
Once activated, the evaporator fans will continue to
run until either a defrost cycle is initiated, or if the
system is placed in SERVICE mode.
Anti Short-Cycle Protection: During cooling
mode, the control board is programmed to allow
a minimum system ON time of 1 minute and a
minimum OFF time of 2 minutes.

Pump Down
At the end of each cooling cycle, when the box
temperature is met, the hot gas control system will
pump down and turn off the compressor.

30

To pump down, the Liquid Line Solenoid(s) is


deactivated and the compressor runs until the
pressure measured at the suction accumulator falls
below the pre-programmed cut out pressure value,
or two minutes has elapsed. The compressor is then
turned off until the start of the next cooling cycle.
During the pump down process, the LED display will
show PMPD.
Manual Pump down: A single pole, single throw
switch is connected to the Service SW input on the
hot gas control board. Activating this switch (closing
the contact) will cause the system to pump down and
shut off. While in Service mode, the evaporator fans
will turn off. Note that the system will not restart until
the switch contact has been opened. The hot gas
controller will display SERV while in Service mode.
The system can also be pumped-down by pressing
the SERVICE button twice. To restart the system,
press the CLEAR button.

DEFROST OPERATION
Defrost Timing/Schedule Programming
The hot gas controller can be programmed with up
to 12 defrost start times. The Program Review menu
section describes the process to program or delete
a valid start time. Note that clearing a start time by
pressing CLEAR and the ENTER will disable all
start times following the one being cleared. There
must be 30 minutes of elapsed time following a start
of defrost before another defrost can be scheduled.
A defrost cycle can be initiated manually at any
time.

Force Defrost Manually


To manually force the start of a defrost-cycle, press
the FORCE DEFROST button. If the system is in
COOL mode, the system will pump down and go to
the off mode before the defrost process is started.

Defrost Process
The defrost process has four steps: Pre-defrost
(DEF1) pressure equalization, Defrost operation
(DEF2), Post-defrost (DEF3) pressure equalization
and drain down, and Refreeze (FREZ).

DEF1:

way valve solenoid 1 second after that. Next, the


pressure regulator control algorithm is enabled.
The initial position is full open, but it quickly makes
adjustments in order to stabilize the pressures
and temperatures seen at the inlet of the suction
accumulator.
The compressor contactor turns on at the same time
that the pressure regulator is activated. The ambient
temperature is measured, and a determination
is made of how many condenser fans should be
operating. The correct number of condenser fans
is activated at the same time as the compressor
contactor.
During the DEF2 operation, the pressure regulator
continues to maintain the appropriate volume of
refrigerant flow through the system based upon the
current ambient conditions, the refrigerant type, and
the type of cooling application.
Termination of defrost is accomplished by either
both evaporators reaching their target termination
temps, or the liquid pressure measured between the
receiver and the condenser coil reaching its target
pressure, or the pre-programmed fail safe time.

Pre-defrost, or defrost step 1, always follows


activation of Off mode. If the system is in Cool mode
when the defrost cycle is activated, the control will
pump down and go to Off mode before activating
pre-defrost.

When one of the termination factors is realized,


the compressor, condenser fan(s), and the defrost
solenoid are turned off. The 3-way valve and the
Pan heaters are left on. The pressure regulator is
activated to 100% open, and DEF3 begins.

The purpose of DEF1 is to equalize the refrigerant


pressures between the condensing unit receiver
and the evaporator(s). This is accomplished by
first deactivating the evaporator fans, and the
suction solenoid. Next the Bypass Solenoid and
the evaporator Pan Heater contactor are activated.
The time duration of the pressure equalization is
programmed as EQUT in the PROGRAM REVIEW
menu.

DEF3:

DEF2:

After the equalization time has elapsed, the Bypass


Solenoid is deactivated. The Defrost Solenoid
is activated 1 second later, followed by the 3-

Post-defrost has two purposes. The first is


the transfer of high pressure refrigerant at the
evaporator back to the condenser receiver by way
of the pressure regulator. The pressure regulator is
open 100% during this step. The second purpose
is drain down time for the warm evaporators.
This allows the water that was melted off of the
coil to drain out of the evaporator drain pan. The
time duration for this step is identical to the DEF1
equalization time.
After the completion of the delay time period, the 3way valve and the pan heater contactor are turned

off. One second later the suction solenoid is turned


on, and then one second after that the compressor
turns on. The condenser fan control algorithm is
also enabled. When the pressure measured at the
suction sensor falls below 20 psig, the liquid line
solenoid is activated and the process step changes
to refreeze.

FREZ:

The refreeze step is identical to cooling mode


except that the evaporator fans are turned off.
This is to allow the evaporator coils to freeze any
remaining water that might be left over from the
drain down step so that when the fans turn on, the

water will not be sprayed into the refrigerated space.


When the evaporator reaches the refreeze setpoint,
the fans turn on and the system begins a cooling
cycle. If the thermostat is satisfied, or deactivated,
the system will run a cooling cycle for two minutes
and then pump down and shut off.
After the compressor is energized, the suction stop
valve may be pulsed to limit the suction pressure at
the compressor.
