502 COMPRESSORS

Operating Requirements - Satisfactory operation of a reciprocating compressor is largely depend­ ent upon the recognition of these three fundamental requirements:

1.Prevention of excess discharge temperature

2.Adequate compressor lubrication

3.A clean and dry system

In order to simplify discharge temperature calculations, the preceding formula maybe stated in the following form:

T2 = [(460 + Tl) X C] - 460

Where:

T2 = Discharge temperature, F actual

Tl = Suction gas temperature, F actual (including superheat)

Discharge Temperature - The temperature at the discharge valves within the cylinders is the con­ trolling factor. Some cooling of the discharge gas

occurs before reaching the discharge stop valve, thus when water-cooled heads are used this cooling is greater than it is without water cooling. To pre­ vent the occurrence of excessive temperature at the discharge valves within the compressor, the following temperatures when measured imme­ diately following the discharge stop valve must never be exceeded.

For nonwater-coOled heads - 275 F max

For water-cooled heads - 250 F max

The approximate discharge gas temperature can be found by use of the following equation:

T2 =

Although exponents are shown for high com­ pression ratios, these are for information pur­ poses only. The rating tables define the allowable selection and operation limits.

High Compression Ratio - Avoid compressor op­ eration at compression ratios exceeding those covered in the rating tables. For operating condi­ tions outside the limits .shown in the tables, use two-stage compression. Care must be taken to prevent the compressor from pulling down to levels outside the rating tables.

Suction Gas Superheat - Excessive suction gas superheat will result in abnormally high discharge temperatures which must be avoided. When using Refrigerants 12, 500, and 502 the actual suction gas temperature must not exceed the values listed in Table 6. ,

*With Refrigerant 22 the suction gas superheat should never exceed 25 F for continuous operation.

tFor most saturated suction temperatures -10 F or below, coolers are required. See rating pages for specific informa­ tion.

Keeping Liquid Refrigerant Out of Compressor -

Liquid refrigerant, or even excessive amounts of entrained liquid particles, in the suction gas must be kept out of the compressor by proper system design and compressor control. Under running conditions, the presence of unevaporated liquid refrigerant in the compressor tends to break down the oil film on the cylinder walls resulting in increased wear and loss of machine capacity.

During compressor operation, proper adjust­ ment of the expansion valve will prevent excessive amounts of liquid from entering the compressor.

During compressor shutdown, gravity, thermal action and refrigerant absorption will result in a refrigerant and oil mixture in the compressor crankcase. Gravity flow can be prevented by the use of recommended loops, but thermal action and the absorption of refrigerant by the lubricating oil cannot be prevented by piping design.

For the above reason, the compressor must be controlled during idle times by one of the follow­ ing methods.

MINIMUM PROTECTION - The standard recom­ mended control method (see Fig. 1) is to close, by action of the control thermostat, the liquid line solenoid valve and simultaneously energize the crankcase heaters. With the crankcase heaters energized the crankcase temperature is always held above the shutdown temperature in the evap­ orator coil and there will be no refrigerant migra­ tion to the crankcase.

With this type control a control relay is re­ quired and the crankcase heaters have to be en­ ergized whenever the compressor is not operating.

The control relay coil is located in parallel with the liquid line solenoid and a normally open control relay contact added in series with the compressor starter and other auxiliary safety devices.

When the thermostat calls for cooling, solenoid valve opens and control relay is energized. This closes the relay contact and, if other safety devices are in their normal position, compressor willstart. Simultaneously the normally closed compressor auxiliary contact will open, removing the crank­ case heaters from the circuit.

When the thermostat is satisfied, the solenoid will close and the control relay is de-energized. This opens the relay contacts and the compressor stops. This action causes compressor auxiliary contacts to close energizing the crankcase heaters.

Specifications are sometimes written to call for a degree of protection greater than that afforded by standard method. If this is the case, either single pumpout or automatic pumpdown control may be required.

AUTOMATIC PUMPDOWN CONTROL (Fig. 2) - Pumpdown control is the most effective means of compressor control in keeping liquid refrigerant out of the crankcase on system shutdown.

In the basic pumpdown control sequence the thermostat controls the liquid line solenoid valve to stop or start the flow of refrigerant to the evap­ orator as required.

The pumpdown control system permits com­ pressor cycling if a system malfunction allows the low side pressure to rise. Although this cycling is sometimes considered objectionable by the cus­ tomer, it does promptly point out the need for maintenance attention and provides positive pro­ tection against liquid refrigerant accumulating in the compressor crankcase.

Pumpdown control should not be used with dry expansion coolers as it may cause frost pinching or freeze-up.

SINGLE PUMPOUT CONTROL - Pumpout control is not as positive as pumpdown control in keeping liquid refrigerant out of the crankcase. However, it is usually satisfactory when used with crankcase heaters if pumpdown is not acceptable.

Single pumpout control is similar to pumpdown control, except in the following ways: a pumpout relay is added, a normally open compressor auxil­ iary contact is necessary, and energizing of crank­ case heaters is definitely required at the end of each operating cycle.

With single pumpout control, when the thermo­ stat is satisfied, the compressor pumps down once and stops. It starts again only when the thermostat calls for cooling. In pumpdown control, the com­ pressor cycles solely on the low pressure switch, regardless of the demands of the thermostat.

Pumpout control should not be used with dry expansion coolers as it may cause frost pinching or freeze-up.

MANUAL PUMP DOWN - The compressor maybe controlled manually without the use ofpumpdown, or single pumpout control, and without crankcase heaters, provided the system is at all times under the control of a qualified operator. The operator will pump down the system by use of the manual valves and will keep liquid, suction and discharge valves closed when the machine is not operating. This method of manual operation may be used for any system, but is particularly applicable to flooded systems. With flooded systems crankcase heaters are used for short "OFF" cycle periods; manual pumpdown is needed during extended compressor shutdown.

Compressot' Features and Accessories

WATER-COOLED HEADS AND OIL COOLERS - Water-cooled heads are available as accessories on all 5F,H compressors. Water cooling in cyl­ inder heads is not necessary for any R-12, R-500 or R-502 application within the range of the ratings shown in this publication. Water-cooled heads are required, however, and must be used for most R-22 applications where the compression ratio is greater than 5.

In many cases when the operating conditions are such that the suction gas becomes superheated and the compression ratio is high, it is required that an oil cooler be used on the compressor. This will insure cooler oil temperatures thereby increasing the life expectancy of the shaft seal. Oil cooler packages and modified bearing heads are available from the factory and are easily installed on all 5 Series compressors (except 5F20 and 30). The oil coolers are field mounted. The special bearing head is available for field installation or can be factory mounted on special order. Refer to 5F,H Application Ratings (5F,H-3XR) to find when oil coolers are required.

Water flow thru compressor heads and oil

 

cooler must be shut off when the compressor is

 

not running to prevent the refrigerant vapors from

 

condensing at the compressor during these OFF

 

cycles. For this purpose a solenoid valve is rec­

 

ommended in the water supply line to the com­

 

pressor heads.

The values listed in Table 7 assume a water temperature rise of 30 F. The oil cooler and water-cooled heads must be piped in series with the oil cooler first. Leaving water temperature should be between 100 F and 120 F, with 120 F being the maximum allowable temperature. The maximum working pressure for the water-cooled heads is 125 psi.

SAFETY RELIEF VALVES - All 5H compressors are equipped with built-in safety relief valves which are factory set to relieve from the discharge to the suction side of the compressor at a pressure differential of 350 psi.

Safety relief valves which relieve at a 400 psi pressure differential are factory-installed on the 5F60 compressor but are not available with the smaller 5F compressors.

SUCTION STRAINERS - Each 5F,H compressor is equipped with one or two suction strainers lo­ cated in the suction manifold. On new installations, felt filters should be used in the suction strainers to trap out foreign material left after Installation. After about 50 hours these felt filters must be removed. See the 5F,H Installation Manual for further details.

OIL SAFETY SWITCH - An oil safety switch is provided with all compressors except the 5F20 and 5F30. This switch is optional equipment on the 5F20 and 5F30 compressors. This switch will shut off the compressor before high oil tem­ peratures or lack of oil causes loss of oil pres­ sure which can result in compressor failure. As a safety feature, this switch must be reset manually after cutout.

OIL SEPARATORS - Oil separators in the hot gas discharge line are not recommended for gen­ eral use with Freon refrigerants. However, there are certain systems where the protection afforded by a separator is desirable, notably those systems employing flooded evaporators. For a more com­ plete discussion see Carrier's System Design Manual.

CRANKCASE OIL HEATERS-Crankcase oil heat­ ers are availablefor all 5F,Hcompressors.These heaters keep the crankcase warm during off cycles and thus minimize refrigerant absorption in the oil. Refer to the 5F,H Installation Manual for installation and wiring instructions.

INTERCONNECTION OF COMPRESSORS - All 5F,H compressors except 5F20 and SFSOarefurnished with removable handhole cover plates on each crankcase. When field interconnection is desired, these removable handhole cover plates can be removed and replaced by special cover plates with tapped openings. These tapped cover plates have connections for both oil and gas equal­ izing lines. For interconnection of the 5F20 and 5F30 compressors it is necessary to drill and tap the crankcase as shown in the 5F,H Installation Instruction Manual.

Because the 5F,H duplex units will usually be interconnected, these machines are equipped with tapped cover plates and interconnected at the factory.

Mufflers are not usually necessary with the smaller 5F compressors and their use is recom­ mended only when the application is critical with respect to quietness of operation.

Each piping package available to convert 5H compressor units to condensing units includes a standard muffler of the appropriate size.

Pressure drop thru these mufflers is about 1 /2 psi at 40 F suction and 105 F discharge with the following loadings; 5 tons with 5F20 muffler, 15 tons with 5F40 muffler, 35 tons with the 5H40 muffler, and 100 tons with the 5H120 muffler.

CAPACITY CONTROL - A cylinder unloading type of capacity control package is available for 5F20 and 5F30 compressor. It is standard equipment on the 5F40 and larger compressors.

The cylinder unloading mechanism is powered by the compressor force feed lubricating system. This feature assures unloading of all controlled cylinders at starting regardless of the position of the capacity control valve, since the suction valves will be held in the open position until the lubricating oil pressure reaches its normal op­ erating level.

VIBRATION ISOLATORS - A standard vibration isolation package is available for each 5F,H com­ pressor. This consists of a standard rubber in shear and compression type mounting which gives an average static deflection of approximately 1 /8 inch and provides reasonably good vibration isolation at 1750 rpm.

Isolation packages are recommended for use on all compressor and condensing units. They are valuable not only on upper floors in reducing vibration transfer to structure, but also when installed on cement floors they prevent misalign­ ment of the drive shaft due to pull down on an uneven floor.

When compressors are run at slower speeds or when superior isolation is desired, isolators are available on the market which give approximately 3/8 inch deflection. Table 8 indicates the estimated weight distribution, using a nominal horsepower motor, on each leg of the condenser or compres­ sor unit. For duplex units the weight is approxi­ mately the same on each leg.

MUFFLERS - Four standard mufflers cover the entire range of all 5F,H compressors. It is rec­ ommended that these mufflers be installed when­ ever compressors are used with remotely located water-cooled or evaporative condensers.

The compressors as furnished from the fac­ tory will have the capacity control arranged for capacity reduction in response to suction pres­ sure. An external adjusting stem is provided to set the control point and maintain the desired suc­ tion pressure. The control point is adjustable from 0 to 50 psig suction pressure. The differential over the complete range at any temperature level is 7 psig with Refrigerant 12 and Refrigerant 500. An 11-lb spring (for use on 5F40 and larger units) is furnished with the compressor which, when used, results in an adjustable control point from 0 to 85 psig with an 11 psig range. It should be inserted in the capacity control valve whenever R-22 or R-502 is used.

With this arrangement the suction pressure will not drop below the control set point minus the differential within the range of capacity steps since the compressor will unload to balance its capacity with the evaporator load.

The power elements and valve lifting mechan­ isms are identical on all 5F,H compressors. However, when using capacity control, various methods are used to activate the power elements.

See Table 10 for the unloading steps and power requirements at each step.

5F20 And 5F30 (Fig. 4)

Major Elements of Control Systems:

1. Capacity Control Valve: The function of this valve is to raise or lower the oil pressure from the oil pump in response to the refrig­ erant suction pressure.

2. Power Element: The function of this element is to supply the power necessary to operate the valve lifting mechanism.

3. Valve Lifting Mechanism: This consists of a sleeve and push pin assembly around each controlled cylinder, designed to hold the suc­ tion valve open, or to permit the valve to re­ main in a normal operating position depending on its actuation by the power element.

Principle of Operation o/ihe System-An increase in suction gas pressure, which requires increased compressor capacity, causes the needle valve to close. Therefore, the lubrication oil pressure in the power element increases. The increased oil pressure in the power element moves the power piston upward and the suction valve discs are allowed to seat.

Table 9 indicates thé control oil pressure at which the controlled cylinders start to and completely unload.

The different points of control pressure on the 5F30 are obtained by using springs with different loading rates in the power element.

5F40 Thru 5H80 (Fig. 5)

Major Elements of Capacity Control System:

1. Capacity Control Valve: The function of this valve is to raise or lower control oil pressure to the hydraulic relay piston in response to the refrigerant suction pressure. An increase in suction pressure increases the control oil pressure in the hydraulic relay.

2. Hydraulic Relay: The function of this relay is to feed the lubrication oil from the oil pump at full pressure in sequence to one or more power elements. This hydraulic relay is activated by the control oil pressure from the capacity control valve.

Power Element: This element supplies the power to operate the valve lifting mechanism.

4. Valve Lifting Mechanism: This consists of a sleeve and push pin assembly around each controlled cylinder, designed to hold the suc­ tion valve open, or to permit the valve to remain in a normal operating position depending on its actuation by the power element.

Principle of Operation of the System - A decrease in suction gas pressure, which necessitates a de­ crease in compressor capacity, causes the range spring to open the capacity control modulating valve. This allows the control oil to relieve from the hydraulic relay and thus reduces the control oil pressure in the relay. With reduced control oil pressure the spring in the hydraulic relay moves the piston and thus the lubrication oil from the oil pump is prevented from flowing to the particular deactivated power element. This relieves the oil pressure from the power element allowing the spring in the power element to move the lifting fork and unload the cylinder. An increase in suc­ tion pressure reverses the action and loads the cylinders.

5H120 Capacity Control (Fig. 6) - The 5H120 capacity control system is similar to that used on the 5F40 to 5H80 compressors. Unloaded starting and capacity reduction is obtained by holding open the suction valves of a number of the cylinders. For capacity control purposes,* a suction pressure activated capacity control valve pilots a hydraulic relay which loads or unloads the cylinders in pairs.

Major Difference from the 5F40 thru 5H80 Capacity Control:

1. The hydraulic relay design provides a wider pressure differential between cylinder cut-in and cutout points. This hydraulic relay is a small, easily removed cartridge rather than an integral part of the pump end cover.

2. The surge chamber on the 5H120 is an inte­ gral part of the bearing head casting.
