A PCB for the purpose of power and control signal transmission. Many other components connect to this board.
Component within the compressor that provides primary counter to impeller thrust. Impeller thrust is trimmed by the axial bearing.
Bearing Motor compressor Controller. The BMCC is the central processor board of the compressor. Based on its sensor inputs, it controls the bearing and motor system and maintains compressor control within the operating limits.
NTC temperature sensor located behind the Backplane for the purpose of sensing motor­cooling vapor temperature. Provides overheat protection to motor windings.
Conformance European. The CE marking (also known as CE mark) is a mandatory conformity mark on many products placed on the single market in the European Economic Area. The CE marking certies that a product has met EU health, safety, and environmental requirements, which ensure consumer safety.
Denitive point on compressor map where mass ow rate is at maximum for compressor speed and lift conditions.
The absolute discharge pressure divided by the absolute suction pressure
High DC voltage simultaneously connected to multiple compressor components via metallic bus bars, including the capacitors
An assembly of four DC capacitors, four bleeder resistors, and positive and negative bus bars
DC-DC converters supply and electrically isolate the high and low DC voltages that are required by the control circuits. When the compressor is switched on, the High-Voltage (HV) DC-DC Converter receives its 15VAC supply from the Soft-Start Board. Once the DC bus voltage has risen to a pre-determined level, the HV DC-DC Converter’s onboard circuits are powered by the DC bus (460-900VDC). The HV DC-DC Converter delivers +24VDC (with respect to 0V) to the Backplane, and HV+ (+250VDC with respect to HV-) to the magnetic Bearing Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Amplier via the Backplane.
A dielectric is a nonconducting substance. Although “dielectric” and “insulator” are generally considered synonymous, the term “dielectric” is more often used when considering the eect of alternating electric elds on the substance while “insulator” is more often used when the material is being used to withstand a high electric eld.
Part of a centrifugal compressor in the uid module that transforms the high-velocity, low­pressure gas exiting the impeller into higher-pressure, low-velocity gas discharged into the condenser.
A voltage threshold where, if the incoming AC voltage drops below it, the SCRs will shut down
A type of connector/plug (male and female) for control wiring. The RS-232 and large connectors on either side of the I/O cable are both types of D-Sub connectors.
Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory. A small chip holds bits of data code that can be rewritten and erased by an electrical charge, one byte at a time. EEPROM data cannot be selectively rewritten; the entire chip must be erased and rewritten to update its contents.

A record of events occurring during the compressor’s lifecycle, indicating when events and faults occur and in what order. The event log is held in the BMCC.
Critical faults indicate an intolerable or unsafe condition that will result in equipment failure if unchecked. They will cause the compressor controller to reduce speed and shut down the system within 60 seconds. This type of fault requires a manual reset. Critical faults include: Discharge Pressure Fault, 3-Phase Over-Current Fault, and Lock Out Fault. If any of the following faults occur three times within a 30-minute period, they also will require a manual reset: Inverter Temperature Fault, Cavity Temperature, SCR Temperature Fault, Motor High Current Fault, and Motor back EMF is low.
Faults indicate an intolerable or unsafe condition that will result in equipment failure if unchecked. They will cause the compressor controller to reduce speed and shut down the system within 60 seconds. This type of fault has an automatic reset.
An insulated conductor connecting two circuits on opposite sides of a barrier such as a compressor housing or PCB.
A function of the compressor where the stator becomes a generator, creating sucient power to allow for the shaft to graduate slowly and drop onto the touchdown bearings safely. This occurs when the inverter has insucient power to sustain safe and normal operation and is typically due to a loss of power.

The IGV assembly consists of movable vanes and a motor. The vane angle, and hence, the degree of pre-rotation to the refrigerant ow, is determined by the BMCC and controlled by the Serial Driver. The IGV position can vary between approximately 0-percent and 110-percent open.
Rotating part of a centrifugal compressor that increases the pressure of refrigerant vapor from the lower evaporator pressure to the higher condenser pressure.

3.1 Main Fluid Path
Figure 3-1 - Compressor Fluid Path TG230 / TT300
Compressor operation begins with a call for cooling from a chiller controller. The compressor controller then begins compressor ramp-up.
The following paragraphs describe the ow of refrigerant from the intake to the discharge port of the compressor (see Figure 3-1 and Figure 3-2).
The refrigerant enters the suction side of the compressor as a low-pressure, low­temperature, super-heated gas. The refrigerant gas passes through a set of adjustable Inlet Guide Vanes (IGVs) that are used to control the compressor capacity at low-load conditions. The rst compression element the gas encounters is the rst-stage impeller. The centrifugal force produced by the rotating impeller results in an increase in both gas velocity and pressure. The high-velocity gas discharging from the impeller is directed to the second­stage impeller through de-swirl vanes. The gas is further compressed by the second-stage impeller and then discharged through a volute via a diuser (a volute is a curved funnel increasing in area to the discharge port. As the area of the cross-section increases, the volute reduces the speed of the gas and increases its pressure). From there, the high-pressure/ high-temperature gas exits the compressor at the discharge port.

3.2 Motor Cooling Liquid refrigerant is channelled at full condenser pressure from the main liquid line to the compressor to cool the electronic, mechanical, and electromechanical components (see Figure 3-3 and Figure 3-4).
• • • CAUTION • • •
A minimum operating pressure ratio of 1.5 is required to maintain adequate cooling of the compressor.
The sub-cooled refrigerant enters the compressor through two solenoid valves and associated xed orices located behind the service access cover. The orices cause the refrigerant to expand, thereby lowering its temperature. Both valves operate relative to the temperature at the sensors that are located at the Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) Inverter and motor cavity. When the temperature at either sensor reaches a pre-determined threshold, one solenoid valve opens. If the temperature increases to the point where it equals a higher temperature threshold, the second solenoid valve opens.
From the outlet of the orices, the refrigerant is directed to the heatsink plate of the inverter and then to the underside of the SCR heatsink. From there, the refrigerant passes through grooves surrounding the motor stator. As the refrigerant ows through the grooves, it vaporizes into a gas. At the coil outlet, the refrigerant gas is channeled back to the suction inlet via the motor cavity, thereby cooling the rotor. All models with the exception of the TT300 and TG230 use a split-cooling method where the motor and electronics portions are cooled separately by refrigerant liquid.

Functional Description
3.4.1 Motor Drive System Normally, AC power to the compressor remains on even when the compressor is in the idle
state. The compressor motor requires a variable-frequency three-phase source for variable­speed operation. The AC line voltage is converted into a DC voltage by Silicon-Controlled Rectiers (SCRs). DC capacitors at the SCR output serve as energy storage and lter out the voltage ripple to provide a smooth DC voltage. The Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) is an inverter that converts the DC voltage into an adjustable three-phase AC voltage. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) signals from the Bearing Motor compressor Controller (BMCC) control the inverter output frequency and voltage. By modulating the on and o times of the inverter power switches, three-phase variable sinusoidal waveforms are obtained. If the power should fail while the compressor is running, the motor switches into generator mode, thereby sustaining the capacitor charge. The rotor can then spin down safely in a controlled sequence preventing damage to components.
3.4.2 Soft-Start Board The Soft-Start Board limits inrush current by progressively increasing the conduction angle of the SCRs. This technique is used at compressor start-up while the DC capacitors are charging up.
The soft-start function and the variable-speed drive combined limit the inrush current at startup.
3.4.3 Bearing Motor
Compressor Controller
The hardware and software for the compressor controller and the bearing/motor controller physically reside in the BMCC. The BMCC is the central processor of the compressor.
3.4.4 Compressor Control The Compressor Controller is continuously updated with critical data from external sensors that indicate the compressor’s operating status. Under program control, the compressor controller can respond to changing conditions and requirements to ensure optimum system performance.
Figures 3-5 to Figure 3-7 shows how the controller responds to chiller demands.
3.4.5 Capacity Control One of the Compressor Controller’s primary functions is to control the compressor’s motor speed and IGV position in order to satisfy load requirements and to avoid surge and choke conditions. However, the majority of capacity control can be achieved via motor speed.

Functional Description
3.4.6 Expansion Valve Control
3.4.7 Motor/Bearing Control
3.4.8 Monitoring Functions
The on-board Electronic Expansion Valve (EXV) driver uses manual control only. Depending on the application, a load balancing (hot gas bypass) valve can be manually driven by the auxiliary EXV output. Load balancing allows the compressor to obtain lower capacities at higher pressure ratios. The valve opens to lower the overall pressure ratio and thereby reduces the lift, enabling the compressor to reduce speed/unload.
The magnetic bearing system physically supports a rotating shaft while enabling non­contact between the shaft and surrounding stationary surfaces. A digital bearing controller and motor controller provide the PWM command signals to the Bearing PWM Amplier and IGBT Inverter, respectively. The bearing controller also collects shaft position inputs from sensors and uses the feedback to calculate and maintain the desired shaft position.
The compressor controller monitors more than 60 parameters, including:
• Gas pressure and temperature monitoring
• Line voltage monitoring and phase failure detection
• Motor temperature
• Line currents
3.4.9 Abnormal Conditions
• External interlock
The compressor controller responds to abnormal conditions by monitoring:
• Surge RPMs
• Choke RPMs
• Power failure/phase unbalance
• Low/high ambient temperature
• High discharge pressure
• Low suction pressure
• Motor-cooling circuit failure (over temperature)
• Refrigerant loss
• Power supply
• Overcurrent

3.4.10 Bearing PWM
Amplier
3.4.11 Serial Driver
3.4.12 Backplane
The Bearing PWM Amplier supplies current to the radial and axial magnetic bearing actuators.
The PWM Amplier consists of high-voltage switches that are turned on and o at a high frequency, as commanded by the PWM signal from the BMCC.
The Serial Driver module performs serial-to-parallel conversion on the stepper motor drive signals from the BMCC. The module also contains four normally open relays under BMCC control. Two of the relays drive the motor-cooling solenoids, and the other two are used to indicate compressor fault status and running status. The status relays can be wired to external control circuits.
The Backplane physically interconnects the on-board plug-in modules with the power electronics, IGV stepper motor, motor-cooling solenoids, rotor position sensors, and pressure/temperature sensors. The Backplane also features on-board, low-voltage DC­DC converters for generating +15V, -15V, +5V, and +17V from an input of +24VDC. The Backplane receives its +24VDC power input from the High-Voltage (HV) DC-DC Converter mounted on the topside of the compressor.
The Backplane is also equipped with status-indicating LEDs. All LEDs are yellow except for the alarm LED, which is green/red. Table 3-1 Backplane LEDs describes the LEDs functions.

3.4.13 High-Voltage DC­DC Converter
3.5 Magnetic Bearing System
3.5.1 Overview
Figure 3-6 - Magnetic Bearing Conguration
DC-DC converters supply and electrically isolate the high and low DC voltages that are required by the control circuits. The HV DC-DC Converter delivers 24VDC and 250VDC from an input of 460-900VDC. The 24VDC and 250VDC are used to power the Backplane and magnetic bearing PWM Amplier, respectively.
A rotating shaft, under changing load conditions, will experience forces in both radial and axial directions. In order to compensate for these forces, a ve-axis bearing system is used, incorporating two radial bearings of two axes each, and one thrust (axial) bearing (see Figure 3-6).
3.5.2 Bearing Control System
The Bearing Control System uses rotor position feedback to close the loop and maintain the rotor in the correct running position (see Figure 3-7). The Bearing Controller issues position commands to the Bearing PWM Amplier. The position commands consist of ve channels with each channel allocated to one of the ve bearing actuator coils (one coil for each axis). The amplier uses IGBT technology to convert the low-voltage position commands to the 250VDC PWM signals that are applied to each bearing actuator coil.
Rotor position sensors are located on rings attached to the front and rear radial bearing assemblies. The front sensor ring contains sensors that read the rotor position along the X, Y, and Z axes. The rotor position along the Z (or axial) axis is read by measuring the distance between the sensor and a target sleeve mounted on the rotor. The rear sensor ring contains sensors that read the position along the X and Y axes. Information from the position sensors is continuously fed back to the bearing controller.

5.5 Codes and Standards Compliance
NOTE
• TT and TG Series Turbocor Compressors were designed for use in stationary building applications.
• An OEMs use of Turbocor Compressors in applications other than stationary building applications (e.g. Marine Applications) is considered a non-standard application and is not eligible for warranty under DTCs standard warranty Terms and Conditions.
It is the responsibility of the OEM to ensure that proper safety protocols are in place and that the chiller system has been designed in a manner that is compliant with all local codes and regulatory requirements governing the use of refrigerants, pressure, vessels, and electrical power. OEMs must also ensure compliance with the requirements stated in the refrigerant manufacturer’s Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) and that other system components are compatible with the refrigerant, giving special attention to elastomers and seals.

6 Electrical Specifications
Electrical Specications
6.1 Supply Voltage and Frequency
Table 6-1 - Acceptable AC Voltage Range
Table 6-2 - Acceptable Frequency Range
Turbocor compressors are designed to operate with a power supply that is within an acceptable tolerance for each nominally rated voltage and frequency. The tables below specify the acceptable supply voltage and frequency ranges. Using a supply voltage/ frequency at or beyond the range limit will cause the compressor to shut down.
Nominal Voltage Acceptable Voltage Range
380V 342 - 418 VAC
400V 360 - 440 VAC
460V 414 - 506 VAC
575V 518 - 635 VAC
• • • CAUTION • • •
Application of a compressor to any voltage which is outside of the nominal rated voltage dened on the compressor nameplate will result in voiding of the compressor warranty from DTC, unless otherwise stated by DTC. This includes any
application of a 400V compressor in a 380V application without the use of a transformer to correct the voltage going into the compressor.
NOTE
Refer to the TT/TG Compressor Nomenclature section of this manual for details on the compressor voltage availability.
Nominal Frequency Acceptable Frequency Range
50Hz 50Hz ±5% (47Hz - 53Hz)
60Hz 60Hz ±5% (57Hz - 63Hz)
6.2 Compressor Current Limit and Operating Range Settings
The new compressor controller (version 3.0.0 and above; see Section 1.1 “Scope”) is designed to allow a user to congure the current setting based on the intended application. The compressor denes the Full Load Amperage (FLA) and Locked Rotor Amperage (LRA) as a range on the nameplate. The settings for the FLA and LRA are adjustable using the Service Monitoring Tool (SMT) or directly from the customer controller application.
The 3-Phase Over Current Alarm (FLA) cannot be set higher than the 3-Phase Over-Current Fault limit (LRA). The maximum fault limit and alarm limit settings are dependent upon the Voltage and Model. The Model type denes the range for the FLA and LRA values.

NOTE
Refer to the OEM Programming Guide to identify specic registers associated with the “3-Phase Over Current Alarm (FLA) and 3-Phase Over Current Fault (LRA).”
An input disconnect (for example, a switch or circuit breaker) must be installed in the line before the compressor in accordance with applicable local, national, and international codes (for example, NEC/CEC). Size the disconnect according to the full-load current.
• • • CAUTION • • •
The full-load current rating is based on the installation of a line reactor in the power line. Refer to the Spare Parts Selection Guide for specications. Failure to use a line reactor will result in poor power factor and higher full-load current.
Refer to Figure 20-9 for interconnection details.

Electrical Specications
6.4 Motor Insulation Class All TT/TG Series compressors have a motor insulation Class H rating or better according to
the NEMA/UL Standard.
6.5 AC Input Line/Power Electronic Component Protection
Most codes require that upstream branch protection be provided to protect input power wiring personnel and switching equipment from damage in the event of an over current condition or equipment failure. Standard fuses and/ or circuit breakers do not provide adequate protection for the compressor’s power electronics components.
User-supplied, properly sized and selected fast-acting fuses must be installed according to the applicable local, national, and international codes. The fuses must be installed in the line before each compressor’s AC input terminals.
Use only properly rated fast-acting line fuses suitable for semiconductor protection, such as Littelfuse JLLS series, Siemens Sitor 3NE1 series, or equivalent.
• • • DANGER • • •
Fast-acting fuses are only for the purpose of reducing the accumulated energy in a compressor’s power electronics caused by a short circuit event. Properly sized and selected fast acting fuses must be installed. Sub-circuit protection must be considered separately in accordance with local electrical requirements. User-supplied branch circuit protection must be installed in accordance with local, national, and international codes (such as NEC/ CEC). The fuses must be installed in the line before the compressor’s AC input terminals.
NOTE
Fuse selection must be done using the Full Load Amps (FLA) of the aected compressor to the next highest amp, but in any event should be a minimum of FLA x 1.25. Fast acting fuses must be installed as close as possible and immediately before the compressor; that is downstream from the line reactor. (Contact DTC for more information).
6.6 Power Line Contactor
6.7 CE Compliance and EMI/EMC Filtering
The power line contactor is optional. Consult local codes to determine if a contactor is necessary for your application.
To address EMI/EMC problems, DTC recommends the installation of a UL-approved EMI/EMC lter device on the input power line. Refer to the Spare Parts Manual for details.
Although all Turbocor compressors are CE listed, the compliance of the compressor with the EMC directive depends on the use of the CE EMI/EMC lter provided by DTC (see Accessories Manual for further details). If this is not possible because of the nature of your application and/or installation, an alternative component with the same attenuation characteristics must be used to maintain compliance with the EMC Directive. It is the responsibility of the user to maintain compliance with the Directives. Contact a DTC sales representative for more details.
Proper installation of the EMI/EMC lter can have a dramatic eect on overall performance. Although the lter reduces electrical noise on the power lines (conducted emissions), it should be located as close as possible to the compressor to reduce broadcasting of the noise (radiated emissions) from the power lines themselves. The capacitors within the lter short the noise to ground so it is imperative that the lter maintains a good ground. A short, heavy, stranded conductor from the lter chassis to the main ground bus is recommended for top performance. A battery braid, litz wire, or exible welding cable with many ne
M-AP-001-EN Rev. N
Page 39 of 108
Electrical Specications
strands, is recommended for best grounding performance. The multiple-strand cabling provides more surface area in order to conduct the high frequencies that are on the grounding cable.
Radiation of noise is also a concern for power line routing as it can eectively bypass the lter. Input and output lter leads should be separated by a maximum practical distance within enclosures and should be routed separately in interconnecting conduits when used.
NOTE
All TT compressors are compliant with standards:
2004/95/EC 2006/42/EC
IEC 60335-2-34:2002 IEC 60335-1:2007
EN 61000-6-2:2005 EN 61000-6-4:2007
6.8 Surge Protection
6.9 Harmonic Filtering (IEEE 519)
6.10 Grounding (Earth) Connection Guidelines
All Turbocor compressors have been tested in accordance with IEC Standard 1000-4-4. Electrical Fast Transient/Burst Requirement. For additional protection, a surge suppressor can be installed in parallel with the compressor. It is recommended to install surge suppression in sites that are susceptible to lighting.
If it is necessary to provide additional harmonic reduction beyond that provided by the standard 5% line reactor, DTC recommends the installation of a harmonic lter device in parallel with the compressor as shown in Figure 20-9.
1. All metal parts should be connected to ground, including the shields of electrical cables.
2. Verify continuity of all ground connections.
3. Ensure solid ground connections (both mechanical and electrical). Connections must be clean, and grease and paint free.
4. At one point, usually the entrance of the power supply panel, all grounds should be connected together (refer to Section 6.11).
From an EMC standpoint, it is best to categorize dierent types of grounds and treat them independently (see Figure 6-1):
• Safety ground (Protective Earth [PE]) and shields of mains cables.
• Analog grounds, shielding of interface cables.
• Digital grounds.
• Reference ground (panel doors, backplate, etc.).

Electrical Specications
6.11 Equipment Panel
Normally, the line reactor, EMI/EMC lter(s), and the harmonic lter will be installed in a panel. This could be the same panel where the controls are located. When designing a panel, attention should be given to the following recommendations:
• All metal parts should be properly connected to ensure an electrical connection. Connect panel doors with braided cable.
• Separate panel into sections for power and interface/control functions (all electrical components and practices should follow all applicable local codes and standards).
• Keep power cables and interface cables separate. Use metal cable glands for shielded cables.
• The wire-loom going to the panel door should be shielded using a metal-braided hose that is connected to ground at both ends.
• Electrical panel must have a dedicated ground conductor in accordance with relevant electrical codes.
• Verify that the panel ground conductor is sized in accordance with relevant electrical codes.
NOTE
The installing electrical contractor is responsible for connecting the panel ground to the facility ground in accordance with relevant electrical codes and standards, such as NEC Section 250 in the U.S. or its equivalent for other countries.
Special ltering and measuring may be required in installations such as hospitals that are prone to being inuenced by other electronic equipment.

6.12 Mains Input Cable Specication
Table 6-4 - Main Cable Connector Plate Hole Sizes
The aim of electrical cables is to be a carrier (conductor) for electrical power. The inuence of the power source on the environment, or the inuence of the environment on the power source, should be such that neither the proper functioning of the compressor nor equipment in its environment is adversely aected. Therefore, DTC advises to use some type of shielded cable for the mains input.
When using shielded cable, select a cable with an eective shield. A cable with an aluminum foil will be far less eective than a specially designed conductive braid. It is best to connect both ends of the cable shield to ground since the shield is not part of the signal path. Alternatively, non-shielded conductors may be used if they are carried inside of a code approved electrical metallic conduit of the exible or rigid types.
The mains input cable should be CSA, UL, or CE approved, three-wire with a common shield and single ground. The cable must be rated for 90°C (194°F) minimum at the maximum applicable current. It is recommended that the cable be double-jacketed, i.e., teck cable type. Refer to Table 6-4 for cable gland specications.

7 Compressor Performance
Compressor Performance
7.1 Performance Ratings
7.2 Tolerance of Performance Ratings
Compressor performance, including applicable capacity range, varies based on the operating conditions. The capacity range, eciency, and other operational information for each compressor can be determined only by using the authorized software known as the “Compressor Performance Rating Engine” or “CPR Engine”. This software and a selection tool is available on our website.
All TT and TG compressors are guaranteed to meet the published performance ratings in our CPR Engine within ±5% for capacity, eciency, and power for given operating conditions. This tolerance band is valid for the area of the operating map which is in the speed control range only. As the compressor reduces speed and mechanical unloading is enabled such as the closing of the variable IGV, the tolerance increases to ±10%.
The conditions considered are only the ange-to-ange conditions seen at the compressor rather than the conditions seen at other points in the system.
The compressor performance ratings are based on using R-134a for the TT series compressors and R-1234ze for the TG series compressors. The use of alternative refrigerants in these compressors may lead to variances in the performance. When using refrigerant R-513A, the tolerance rating is increased by an additional 1.5% so that it is ±6.5% in the speed control range and 11.5% in the area where mechanical unloading is enabled.

Minimum Unloading Capacity
9 Minimum Unloading Capacity
Due to the nature of centrifugal compression, the minimum stable load is dependent on the pressure ratio imposed on the compressor by the chiller system. All compressor performance, including unloading, should be determined through use of the relevant compressor selection/rating programs.

Control Logic Guidelines For Multiple Compressors
10 Control Logic Guidelines for Multiple Compressors
Due to the nature of centrifugal compression, special control logic must be implemented for proper staging of multiple Turbocor compressors when installed on a common circuit. This section is intended only as a guide without going into details. Control details are specic to each OEM’s individual control strategy. The Turbocor centrifugal compressors can be controlled by staging compressors and running the on line compressors in parallel.
Staging valve: The Staging valve is piped in upstream of the check valve to provide a low pressure bypass path and is used to reduce the pressure ratio in the system to assist in starting a compressor. Staging valve is mandatory with all DTC compressors required to start against a pressure ratio of 2.4 or greater.
Load balancing valve (hot gas bypass): the LBV is piped downstream of the check valve and is primarily used in low load conditions to keep the compressor Online instead of cycling o. It is possible to use a staging valve as a load balance valve (HGBP) but sizing and control can be a little more challenging and for that reason they are both frequently installed in many systems.
NOTE
The hot gas evacuated by the staging valve must be injected downstream of the main EXV in order to de-superheat the gas prior to entering the suction of the compressor.
• • • CAUTION • • •
If the staging valve is used as load balancing valve (HGBP) there are two major risks:
Check valve chattering if the bypassed ow is too high, this chattering will lead to bearing faults due to vibrations (Please
contact DTC for further information)
High suction superheat which may lead to compressor trip

Guide Specications
12 Guide Specifications
12.1 General
12.2 Refrigerant
12.3 Compressor Bearings
12.4 Capacity Control
This section contains written specifications for the TT and TG series compressors for use in system design specifications.
Construction shall utilize a two-stage, variable-speed, centrifugal compressor design requiring no oil for lubrication. Compressor shall be constructed with cast aluminum casing and high-strength thermoplastic electronics enclosures. The two-stage centrifugal impellers shall consist of cast and machined aluminum. The motor rotor and impeller assembly shall be the only major moving parts.
TT compressors shall be designed for use with R134a while TG compressors are designed for use with R1234ze(E).
The compressor shall be provided with radial and axial magnetic bearings to levitate the shaft, thereby eliminating metal-to-metal contact, and thus eliminating friction and the need for oil. The magnetic bearing system shall consist of front, rear, and axial bearings. Both the front and the rear bearings are to levitate the shaft at X and Y directions, and the axial at Z direction. Each bearing position shall be sensed by position sensors to provide real-time repositioning of the rotor shaft, controlled by onboard digital electronics.
The compressor shall have a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) for linear capacity modulation, high part-load eciency and reduced in-rush starting current. It shall include an Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) type inverter that converts the DC voltage to an adjustable three-phase AC voltage. Signals from the compressor controller shall determine the inverter output frequency, voltage and phase, thereby regulating the motor speed. In case of power failure, the compressor shall be capable of allowing for a normal de-levitation and shutdown.
12.5 Compressor Motor
12.6 Compressor Electronics
12.6.1 Ancillary Devices
Compressor speed shall be reduced as condensing temperature and/or heat load reduces, optimizing energy performance through the entire range of capacity. Capacity modulates innitely as motor speed is varied across the range. Inlet Guide Vanes (IGVs) shall be built­in to further trim the compressor capacity in conjunction with the variable-speed control to optimize compressor performance at low loads. Refer to DTC Selection Software for performance calculations and limits.
The compressor shall be provided with a direct-drive, high-eciency, permanent-magnet synchronous motor powered by pulse-width-modulating (PWM) voltage supply. The motor shall be compatible with high-speed variable-frequency operation that aords high-speed eciency, compactness and soft start capability. Motor cooling shall be by liquid refrigerant injection.
The compressor shall include a microprocessor controller capable of controlling magnetic bearings and speed control. The controller shall be capable of providing monitoring, including commissioning assistance, energy outputs, operation trends, and fault codes via a Modbus interface.
A check valve shall be installed on the discharge port of the compressor to protect against backow of refrigerant during coast down. It is recommended that the valve be located after the properly designed discharge cone adaptor, preferably close to the condenser in the packaged system. The system shall also be provided with an appropriately sized line reactor.

System Design Guidelines
13 System Design Guidelines
13.1 General Requirements
In addition to the instructions detailed in the TT and TG series technical documentation set, this section provides basic guidelines and requirements for the design and manufacture of R134a systems equipped with DTC compressors.
Refer to the applicable DTC technical manual for applications, operating, installation, and commissioning instructions.
NOTE
The compressor internal safety control settings are designed to provide protection for the compressor only. Designers MUST provide SYSTEM protection within their control design. DTC will not be responsible for system protection other than the compressor.
1. Check for compliance with all installation, operating, commissioning and service steps, as outlined in the documentation set. Check for the appropriate operating envelope and minimum unloading capacity for the intended application.
2. System components such as evaporators, condensers, valves, etc., should be properly selected and sized for appropriate performance and compatibility with applied refrigerant.
3. The system suction and discharge piping should be properly designed and selected for minimum pressure drop. Since the Turbocor compressor operates without lubricating oil, conventional piping considerations that ensure oil return, such as multiple risers and traps, are not required. In most cases, larger diameter lines will result in better compressor performance and eciency.
4. For improved eciency and better control, particularly at low load / low compression ratios, electronic expansion valves (EXVs) are strongly recommended. To take advantage of low pressure ratio operation to improve low load performance and eciency, EXV capacity should be selected accordingly. Thermal expansion valves (TXVs) are not recommended due to the general inability of these devices to adequately cover the operating spectrum of centrifugal compressors, particularly at low compression ratios.
5. Take all necessary precautions to prevent any possibility of liquid oodback to the compressor. This means consideration during the ON and OFF cycles, particularly in multiple compressor installations. This WILL include, but is not limited to, the inclusion of a liquid line solenoid valve and piping, evaporator and condenser arranged in a manner that prevents free drainage of liquid to compressor.
6. The refrigeration piping system must be clean and free of all debris in accordance with refrigeration-industry best practices Particles can damage the compressor.
7. The system control should not be designed based on pump down cycle. The system cannot be pumped down due to the surge characteristics of centrifugal compressors.
8. Use Table 13-1 for recommended minimum pipe sizes.
M-AP-001-EN Rev. N

Suction 4" 4" 5" 5"
Discharge 2 5/8" 3 1/8" 4" 4"
NOTE
If steel pipe is used, the pipe must be selected to give the equivalent inside diameter to copper pipe.
Properly tapered trumpets with smooth transitions must be used to connect the compressor anges to the pipework.
The discharge line exit transition should not be at an angle greater than eight degrees inclusive. The suction line length should be straight for 1.5 times the pipe diameter before entry into the compressor.
Turbocor compressors use two stage centrifugal compression with interstage port availability. This feature provides advantages of capacity and eciency improvement when an economizer is installed. The improvements in eciency and capacity are a result of further sub-cooling of the liquid refrigerant. Two types of economizer arrangements can be used: sub-cooler or ash tank. See Figure 14-3 and Figure 14-4. Refrigerant must enter the compressor through the economizer port in a “gas” state. Care must be taken to ensure that no liquid enters the compressor.
13.3 Motor/Electronics Cooling Requirements
To determine compressor capacity and eciency, the economizer performance rating option is available in the Selection Software on the Customer Service and Support - Performance Tools section of the DTC web page (www.turbocor.com). The circuit must be properly designed to reect the specied heat exchanger approach with minimized pressure drops across the liquid side and expansion side. Piping design, including expansion device selection and pipe sizing, should be in accordance with best practices.
NOTE
To prevent reverse rotation and potential bypass of gas through an idle compressor the economizer circuit must be isolated with an automatically actuated valve which closes immediately upon compressor shut down.
NOTE
• Sub-cooled liquid must be fed to the motor/electronics cooling port of the compressor.
• It must be in a pure liquid state with a minimum of 6° F (3.5°C) sub cooled at the connection point to the motor/ electronics cooling port of the compressor.
NOTE
Filter dryer, sight glass and service valve must be tted in the motor-cooling liquid line.
It is essential that compressor motor and power electronics cooling is available immediately at start up. The compressor motor cooling liquid feed line must be congured and located so that this occurs. Recommended minimum pipe size is 1/2" for all models. A larger size may be necessary in some situations such as systems with low subcooling on start or extended piping runs. A full ow lter / drier must be installed and a liquid sight glass must be installed adjacent to each compressor. In multiple compressor systems, a single lter/ dryer may serve multiple compressors but each compressor must have a dedicated sight glass.

System Design Guidelines
13.4 Electrical Requirements
13.5 Application-Specific Requirements
13.5.1 Medium Evaporating Temperature Application (TT300)
13.5.2 Low Lift Application
Power is permanently connected to the compressor connection terminals. A line reactor must be connected in series with the compressor connection. The line reactor enclosure or box should be properly ventilated to avoid overheating.
NOTE
Medium Evaporating Temperature is dened as between 0 and -10 degrees C (between 32 and 14 degrees F).
1. Check the operating envelope for limits, required compressor version, and accessories.
2. For medium-temperature applications, an evaporator pressure regulating valve must be installed external to the compressor between the main suction line and the motor/ electronics cooling outlet port adjacent to the inter stage port. The recommended valve is 7/8” (e.g., Danfoss KVP 22 or equivalent), set at a corresponding pressure to
0.8°C (34°F) saturated temperature (depending on the used refrigerant). The motor/ electronics cooling outlet port is tted with a 5/8” are adapter.
The standard TT/TG control limits compressor speed and capacity below a 1.5 pressure ratio to ensure adequate motor/inverter cooling. When enabled, the low lift option is meant to enable increased compressor speed and capacity at pressure ratios below 1.5. To ensure adequate cooling for extended operation with pressure ratios below 1.5, the chiller system must provide the subcooled refrigerant ow specied in Table 13-2. In most circumstances and system designs, that will require the use of an OEM supplied liquid refrigerant pump. If an adequate supply of subcooled liquid is not provided, the compressor will limit speed and capacity to maintain safe operating temperatures. If safe temperatures cannot be maintained, the compressor will fault. Repeated operation without adequate motor cooling could result in damage to the compressor and evidence of such operation could limit warranty coverage.
Table 13-2 - Low Lift Pump Sizing
Refer to Figure 14-1 for a possible pump design and Table 13-2 for pump sizing. Though each OEM may choose to use more sophisticated logic, a simplied control logic would turn the pump on at pressure ratios below 1.5 and o when the pressure ratio rises to 1.7. By default, the low lift option is not enabled. More details on enabling the low lift option and the alarm and faults associated with it are included in the OEM Programming Manual.

13.5.3 Limited Capacity at Low pressure Ratios
Figure 13-1 - Centrifugal Performance Dynamics
This performance chart (Figure 13-1) is representative of a maximum capacity curve that you would see with Turbocor centrifugal compressors. At point A, a low pressure ratio due to high evaporator load conditions, such as hot building start-up, can limit the maximum capacity of the centrifugal compressor.
If more capacity is desired, it is advisable to raise the discharge pressure temporarily to increase the pressure ratio (point B) until the sensible heat in the building is dissipated.

Sound and Power Specications
15.1 TT300 and TT400 Sound Power Measurements
15.1.1 Results
Disclaimer
The sound power levels on the TT300 and TT400 compressors are measured in compliance with ISO 9614-1 (1993) and are given in decibels and in A-scale dB(A).
Three series of sound power measurements were performed on the unit while in two dierent modes:
• For TT300: 250kW (70 ton) Refrigeration capacity
• 315kW (90 ton) Refrigeration capacity For TT400:
• 420kW (120 ton) refrigeration capacity
• 525kW (150 ton) refrigeration capacity
The sound power measured under each operational mode is presented in Tables 15.1 and
15.2 for TT300, and Tables 17.4 and 17.5 for TT400 presents the results of sound pressure calculations for various distances while the compressor is installed on top of a building.
• The sound data below should be used as a guide only.
• The following sound measurements are based on a specific physical setup, such as suction/ discharge piping, evaporator and condensers, as well as specific pressure ratios. Any OEM system design would not necessarily match these conditions.
• OEMs are responsible for their system sound level measurements and their published data.

17 Piping Considerations
Piping Considerations
Care should be exercised when selecting pipe sizes as they will vary according to their application. Section 14, “Sample Refrigeration Circuits,” provides examples of compressor piping arrangements for the most common applications.
The motor-cooling line should be channeled from the liquid line; refer to Section 13.3 for more information. DTC requires the installation of a sight glass and full-ow liquid dryer in the motor-cooling line.
NOTE
Some applications may require alternative arrangements. Contact DTC for further assistance, if required.
• • • CAUTION • • •
The discharge line must be tted with a non-return valve to prevent reverse ow into the discharge port, which can cause damage to compressor components.
All pipe work should be carried out in accordance with industry standards. Brazing without the use of nitrogen will result in debris being deposited in the pipes, potentially leading to blockage or damage.
Discharge piping should contain a caution label from system manufacturers or compressor installers that the surface is hot.

18 Environmental Considerations
Environmental Considerations
18.1 Humidity
18.2 Vibration
If the compressor is installed in a humid environment, drip trays may be required to collect condensate. Insulation should be installed on the suction valve/piping and the end cap as this is where condensation is most likely to form.
It is recommended to t an End Cap insulator in a humid environment.
External copper piping should be braced to minimize the transfer of vibration to the compressor.

19 Shipping Considerations
Shipping Considerations
19.1 Vibration
Figure 19-1 - Anti-Vibration Bracket
When shipping the compressor as an integral part of a chiller unit, precautions should be taken to protect the compressor motor cooling line from excessive vibration. Due to the exibility of the compressor’s isolation mounts, compressor vibration during transit can fracture the motor cooling line’s rigid piping. DTC suggests the temporary installation of an anti-vibration bracket between the compressor’s base frame and mounting rail during transit, as shown in Figure 19-1.

20 Installation
Installation
20.1 Unpacking and Inspection
20.2 Rigging Requirements
20.3 Unit Placement
The compressor should be carefully inspected for visible signs of damage. Check for loose bolts and damage to covers or outer casing. Damage should rst be reported to the carrier, not DTC. DTC Customer Support and Service can be contacted to assist in determining the extent of damage or if compressor should be returned to DTC. Damage should be specied on the Bill of Lading or transportation/freight forwarder documentation. Open all containers and verify all parts against the packing list. Report any shortages to DTC. Contact DTC to conduct report actions via the Incident Report form.
Care must be exercised at all times when rigging or handling the compressor to protect it from damage. Two eyebolts (one at each end) are provided for compressor rigging. A spreader bar should be used to safely position the compressor into its nal location (see Figure 20-1).
1. If mounting the compressor with the DTC mounting kit, refer to Appendix B Mounting Kit Instructions; if not, install four isolation pads in accordance with the footprint dimensions given in Figure 20-2.
2. Mount the compressor onto the isolation pads. Ensure the compressor mounting rails are properly isolated from the base frame once the attaching hardware is secured; for example, the screw should not extend from the compressor mounting rails to the base frame (see Figure 20-3 and Figure 20-4).
3. Check that the compressor mounting rails are level ± 5mm (3/16") in the lateral and longitudinal planes.

20.4 Mounting Base
Figure 20-2 - Mounting Base (TT and TG series)
The compressor must be mounted on a rigid surface of sucient structural integrity to support the weight of the compressor and valves (see Figure 16-4b and Table 16-2). A mounting kit is available to isolate the compressor from the supporting structure and to minimize vibration from other rotating equipment. The compressor mounting rails should be level ± 3/16” (5mm) in the lateral and longitudinal planes.
NOTE
If isolation pads are used at the four (4) mounting base points, the overall height of the compressor will change. Be sure to measure accordingly based on the insulator used.
1. If isolation pads are used, install four (4) pads in accordance with the footprint dimensions given in Figure 20-2.
2. Mount the compressor onto the isolation pads. Ensure the compressor mounting rails are properly isolated from the base frame once the attaching hardware is secured; for example, the screw should not extend from the compressor mounting rails to the base frame (see Figure 20-3 and Figure 20-4).
3. Check that the compressor mounting rails are level ± 5mm (3/16") in the lateral and longitudinal planes.

20.5 Piping Connections
• • • CAUTION • • •
Install new O-rings when attaching flanges to the compressor. O-rings must be of type EPDM (also known by the compound # E0740-75 for R1234ze refrigerant). O-ring grease must be silicone-based and compatible with R1234ze.
• • • CAUTION • • •
The motor-cooling line should be channeled from the liquid line (see Figure 20-5). The motor-cooling line requires the installation of a service valve (not included) to enable refrigerant isolation during compressor servicing. The compressor is shipped pressurized with Helium. Pressure should be relieved through the Schrader valves on the compressor prior to removing the suction and discharge connection blanking plates (see Figure 20-5).
1. After releasing the pressure, remove the suction and discharge connection blanking plates from the new compressor.
2. Attach the suction, discharge, and economizer (if applicable) connections. Solder all joints according to approved practice ensuring that dry nitrogen is used at all times.
3. Ensure ange surfaces are clean and free from debris. Install new O-rings.
• • • CAUTION • • •
Ensure the discharge line is tted with a non-return valve. During a surge condition or shutdown, the nonreturn valve prevents reverse ow into the discharge port, which can cause damage to compressor components. Dry-t the pipework to the valves and verify the connections are aligned and there is no strain on the joints.
4. Attach the motor-cooling connection at the rear of the compressor. This connection is

20.6 Control Wiring
20.6.1 Control Wiring Connections
The compressor I/O Board enables communication of control and status signals between the compressor controller and external equipment. These signals include, among others, cooling demand, input, stepper motor control inputs and outputs, alarm and interlock contacts, and Modbus protocol communications.
Figure 16-7 shows the control wiring connections to the compressor I/O Board. Table 16-1 Control Wiring Details provides details for the module terminal connections.
• • • CAUTION • • •
Incorrect wiring of the terminals can severely damage the module and other components.
The interface cable connects the compressor to the compressor I/O board. To connect the cable:
1. Plug the cable connector into connector J6 on the compressor I/O board.
• For RS-485 communication, the total length of the interface cable and control wiring can be extended up to 100 meters (328 feet) (see Figure 16-8). If the compressor is going to be monitored over an RS-232 line, the total cable length between the compressor and the PC should not exceed 15 meters (50 feet). See Section 4.2.

20.6.2 Circuit Grounding Improper grounding or voltage in circuits connected to the compressor I/O board can lead
to component failures. In particular, the interlock and analog output circuits are sensitive to improperly connected external circuits (see Figure 20-7).
Prior to connecting the control wiring to the compressor I/O board, check for improper grounding. Improper grounding can be identied by measuring the voltage between the customer’s negative terminals and the ground (J1 COM or Modbus shield) terminal on the compressor I/O board (see Figure 20-7). If the measured voltage is not zero, determine the source of the voltage. The most likely cause of voltage is insucient insulation of the external circuit. In case of uncertainty of the grounding, connect the negative terminals of the external circuit to a ground and then connect the external ground to the ground on the compressor I/O board.

20.6.3 Voltage-Free Contacts
Figure 20-8 - Interlock Circuit Tests
Prior to connecting the interlock terminals of the compressor I/O board, measure the resistance across the customer’s interlock terminals (see Figure 20-8). Ensure that the interlock contacts are closed. The measured value should be less than 1Ω.
Measure the voltage between each customer interlock terminal and the frame ground while the interlock contacts are open and closed. In either contact state, if the measured voltage is not zero, verify the source of the voltage. Do not connect the interlock terminals until the voltage source is removed (see Figure 20-9).

20.7 Power Wiring This section describes the connection of the power wiring to the compressor.
NOTE
The AC input cable should be CSA, UL, or CE approved, 3-wire with a common shield and single ground. It is recommended that the cable be double-jacketed; for example, a teck cable type. The cable must be rated for 90° C (194° F) minimum with a maximum current rating corresponding to the LRA value on the compressor nameplate.
Keep power cables and control interface cables in separate conduits. Use metal cable glands for shielded cables to ensure good grounding.
If you are installing a DTC line reactor or EMI or harmonic lter in the mains input circuit, refer to the applicable installation instructions.
Figure 20-9 shows a typical schematic for the compressor’s electrical connections.
Figure 20-9 - Typical Electrical Connections
1. Release the screws that secure the mains input cover to the compressor. Lift away cover.
2. Insert a cable gland (customer-supplied) into the opening in the mains input bracket.
3. Fasten the cable gland to the bracket with the locknut
4. Feed the AC input cable through the cable gland.
