How do IDVs work?

Danfoss Intermediate Discharge Valves (IDVs) are located close to the discharge side of the compressor. They reduce excessive compression of refrigerant under part-load conditions while maintaining the same cooling capacity. The IDVs open when discharge pressure falls below the built-in optimization point. They adapt the effort of the motor to the varying load and pressure conditions in the system, thus reducing the effort of the motor and its electrical consumption and improving the system’s seasonal energy efficiency.

Compressor and frequency converter combinations
To have the optimum compressor selection, select a compressor size which achieves the peak load system cooling capacity demand at its maximum speed.
Different frequency converter variants are available according to:
1. Mains supply voltage
2. IP class (CDS303 drives are available in IP20 or IP55 housings)
When the compressor size and mains voltage have been defined in the above selection criteria, the code number tables from the “Ordering information and packaging” section provides the appropriate frequency converter sizes and up to four corresponding code numbers for each compressor model.
Detailed performances can be found in datasheets and in selection programs.
3. RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) class H2/H3 or HX.
4. Printed Circuit Board (PCB) coated
Note this compressor is equipped with a six-pole electrical motor so the applied frequency from the inverter will be 50 Hz for 1000 rpm up to 330 Hz for 6600 rpm.

Soft-start control

Phase sequence and reverse rotation protection

The CDS303 frequency converter generates by design a compressor soft start with an default initial ramp up of 7.5s to 50 rps.
Current inrush will not exceed the frequency converter maximum current.
The compressor will only operate properly in a single direction. If electrical connections are done correctly between the drive and the compressor terminals (compressor T1/T2/T3 and drive terminals U, V & W matching), the drive will provide correct phase supply to the compressor, and reverse rotation will be not possible:
• CDS terminal U (96) to VZH terminal T1
• CDS terminal V (97) to VZH terminal T2
• CDS terminal W (98) to VZH terminal T3
If compressor T1/T2/T3 and drive U, V & W terminals are not matching, the compressor
Basically seen from the mains, the inrush peak reach a level which is only a few percent more than the rated nominal current.
can operate in a reverse rotation. This results in excessive noise, no pressure differential between suction and discharge, and suction line warming rather than immediate cooling. The compressor can be rapidly damaged in these conditions. If reverse rotation symptoms occur, shut the compressor down and connect the phases to their proper terminals.
Mains connection to the CDS frequency converter order has no influence on the output phase sequence which is managed by the frequency converter.

Condensation

IP20 drives are intended for indoor or cabinet mounting. Application example: drive fitted in a machine room, basement or in an electrical cabinet together with other electric / electronic components such as the unit controller or contactors.
Condensation must always be avoided. There is a specific risk of condensation when the frequency converter or some of its components are colder than moist ambient air. In this situation, the moisture in the air can condense on the electronic components.
• Operating with the frequency converter constantly connected to the mains can help to reduce the risk of condensation. Install a cabinet heater in situations where there is a real possibility of condensation due to ambient conditions.
• If the drive is IP 20, then evaluate and prevent possibility of condensation above drive. Example: condensation on metallic frame above drive, piping… If unavoidable, solutions like
For outdoor use the electrical cabinet must be IP54 or the drive itself must be IP54. Application example: rooftop units or condensing units.
If IP54 with LCP make sure that the gasket is applied to ensure tightness.
It is recommended to place drive at least 30cm from ground to protect against floods.

• Water resulting of condensation must not accumulate on the bottom of electric panel. Provide a drain for condensed water to run out if necessary.
• No other forced cooling then internal drive fan.

Dust Exposure

Mechanical Mounting Clearance
Avoid Dust forms and deposits on the surface of the drive and inside on circuit boards and the electronic components. These deposits act as insulation layers and hamper heat transfer to the ambient air, reducing the cooling capacity. The components become warmer. This causes accelerated aging of the electronic components, and the service life of the unit decreases. Dust deposits on the heat sink in the back of the unit also decrease the service life of the unit.
For optimal cooling conditions, mount the drive on vertical position. Allow a free air passage

Horizontal mounting is NOT the preferred position, however if unavoidable, lay PCB

Drive installation

Ambient temperature The maximum ambient temperature for the drive

is 50°C.
Make sure that the clearance limits described above are respected.
The drive must be installed on a wall or on a back plate to ensure proper cooling.
Do not place the drive under direct sunlight. Insulation inside the electrical panel can reduce impact of sun radiation.
Test at the unit at highest ambient maximum load is recommended. Look for over temperature drive alarm.
The drive could operate lower to -10C with proper operation, such as inside the cabinet, install the space heater. However, LCP may not function well under such low temperature.

Manage sound and vibration

Mechanical vibrations

A compressor generates some vibrations that propagate into the surrounding parts and structure. The vibration level of a VZH compressor alone does not exceed 76 µm peak to peak. However, when system structure natural frequencies are close to running frequency, vibrations are amplified due to resonance phenomenon.
A high vibration level is damageable for piping reliability and generates high sound levels.
Mitigations methods:
1. Danfoss VZH scroll compressors are designed to produce minimal vibration during operations. To ensure minimum vibrations transmission to the structure, strictly follow mounting requirements (mounting feet, rails etc..). For further information on mounting requirements, please refer to “Design compressor mounting”.
2. Ensure that there is no direct contact (without insulation) between vibrating components and structure.
This could be challenging on a variable system as all resonant frequencies between min speed to maximum speed will be exited.
It is mandatory to check that piping vibrations are acceptable across speed range. This test can be done by increasing slowly speed and monitoring piping behavior through, strain gage, acceleration, or displacement measurement. As alternative visual check with strobe light can also emphasis high piping displacement.
If some resonant frequencies generate high piping vibration, problem can be solved by increasing piping stiffness with brackets or changing layout. Dampers can also be installed to mitigate vibration.
If some frequencies continue to produce unacceptable vibration levels, speed by-pass is adjustable in the frequency converter, in order to avoid some frequency ranges. Four by-pass ranges are adjustable, and settings can be made in parameter group 4-6.
GENERAL INFORMATIONPRODUCT INFORMATIONSYSTEM DESIGNINTEGRATION INTO SYSTEMORDERING INFORMATION

Gas pulsation

3. Resonance phenomenon To avoid resonance phenomenon, pipings and frame must have natural frequencies as far as possible from running frequencies.
The Danfoss VZH scroll compressor has been designed and tested to ensure that gas pulsation is optimized for the most commonly encountered air conditioning pressure ratio. Manifolded compressors are equivalents to lagged sources of gas pulsation. Therefore, pulse level can vary during time.
Mitigations methods:
If an unacceptable level is identified, a discharge muffler with the appropriate resonant volume and mass can be installed.

*Crankcase heater The belt crankcase heaters are designed to protect the compressor against off-cycle migration of refrigerant. Additional heater power or thermal insulation might be needed in case of ambient temperature below -5°C (23°F) and a wind speed above 5m/second (16.4 feet/second). The heater must be turned on whenever all the compressors are off. Cranckcase heater accessories are available from Danfoss (see section “Accessories”).
Optimum location area
**Liquid line solenoid valve (LLSV) A LLSV is used to isolate the liquid charge on the condenser side, thereby preventing against charge transfer to the compressor during off -cycles. The quantity of refrigerant on the low-pressure side of the system can be further reduced by using a pump-down cycle in association with the LLSV.
***Pump-down cycle By decreasing pressure in the sump, pump down:
• Evacuates refrigerant from oil
• Set the sump saturating pressure much lower than ambiance temperature and due to that, avoid refrigerant condensation in the compressor.
• Pump-down must be set higher than 1.8 bar(g) / 26 psig.

A discharge gas temperature protection device must be installed on all heat pumps. In reversible air-to-air and air-to-water heat pumps, the discharge temperature must be monitored during development test by the equipment manufacturer.
The compressor must not be allowed to cycle on the discharge gas thermostat. Continuous operations beyond the compressor’s operating range will cause serious damage to the compressor.
The discharge gas thermostat accessory kit (code
7750009) includes all components required for installation as shown on the right. DGT installation must respect below requirements:
• The thermostat must be attached to the discharge line within 150 mm (5.91 inch) from the compressor discharge port and must be thermally insulated and tightly fixed on the pipe.
• The DGT should be set to open at a discharge gas temperature of 135°C (275°F) or lower.

MOP (Max operating pressure) control
GENERAL INFORMATIONPRODUCT INFORMATIONSYSTEM DESIGNINTEGRATION INTO SYSTEMORDERING INFORMATION
Condensing pressure control
Minimum pressure ratio
In steady state, it is essential to prevent the compressor running when evaporating T° is higher than the specified envelope. Operating the compressor higher than maximum evaporating temperature will cause low viscosity of lubricant and lead to high dilution. Eventually the compressor will get damaged.
This protection can be achieved by using MOP function on expansion device. MOP is a feature added to EXV’s (also to TXV’s) that limit the maximum suction pressure of the unit. The customer would need to set this at the 27°C
In steady state, the condensing T° must be maintained at a T° within envelope. This can be done by using fan speed controller, or constant pressure valve. Keep condensing pressure at a minimum level is also important to maintain the pressure differential across the thermostatic expansion valve and prevent cut out on the LP
In steady state, the pressure ratio must be a T° within envelope. 2 type of control can be considered:
• Set the minimum condensing T° at 30°C (86°F) together with MOP set at 27°C (80.6°F).
(80.6°F) limit we have on our VS operating envelope.
Regardless of EXV or TXV, customer needs to qualify the expansion device. Testing needs to be done at both max and min operating conditions to guarantee the valve closes enough on the min and opens far enough on the max.
Complementary to MOP, the unit controller can increase compressor speed to keep evaporating T° lower than limit.

As an alternative the unit controller can increase compressor speed to keep condensing T° lower than limit.
• Unit controller monitors permanently Condensing and Evaporating T°, and adjust compressor speed or condensing T° to keep running conditions within envelope.

• Oil boost function: If compressor runs below 2400 rpm for more than 120 minutes (low speed running time, 28-11), in case oil get trapped in system and compressor inner part cannot get lubricated, CDS303 oil boost function will accelerate compressor speed to 3600 rpm for 1 minute (minimum duration, includes ramp up time, 28-13) to take the oil back from system. In case of slow acceleration condition, please make sure compressor maintain minimum speed 3600rpm for at least 1 minute running.
* Please note for oil boost function, it is enabled by parameter 28-10 as default setting. Please notice when hands on mode is selected, oil return management will not work even if parameter 28-10 (oil return management) is set to on. During hands on mode, if compressor runs below 2400rpm for more than 120 minutes,
This function uses a timer. The timer is set at parameter low speed running time 28.11, 120min. When actual compressor speed is below 40rps, the timer is increasing. When compressor speed is above 40rps timer is decreasing. When time counter reaches 120min the oil return boost is started. When the boost is terminated, the compressor speed goes back to run on reference (speed setpoint) and the time counter is reset and restarting from zero.
oil return fault alarm (A208) will report on LCP and stop the compressor. Please select hands on mode carefully and only select hands on mode if the OEM has implemented oil return management in the system controller and qualified oil management. Under such conditions, the compressor could run below 2400rpm continually and meanwhile drive oil return management 28-10 will get by passed..
• Oil return function: To double ensure oil return from system, compressor speed will boost to 3600 rpm at a fixed time intervals (as programmed in parameter 28-12, default 24 hrs) any way.

Reduce moisture in the system

Requirements

Solutions

Excessive air and moisture
can increase condensing pressure and cause excessively high discharge temperatures.
can create acid giving rise to copper platting.
can destroy the lubricating properties of the oil.
VZH compressors are delivered with < 100 ppm moisture level. At the time of commissioning, system moisture content may be up to 100 ppm.
To achieve this requirement, a properly sized and type of drier is required. Important selection criteria’s include:
driers water content capacity,
system refrigeration capacity,
system refrigerant charge.
All these phenomena can reduce service life and cause mechanical and electrical compressor failure.
During operation, the filter drier must reduce this to a level between 20 and 50 ppm.

Handling

- Store the compressor where is not exposed to rain, corrosive or flammable atmosphere.
- Store the compressor between
-35°C and 70°C (-31°F and 158°F) when it is charged with nitrogen.
Each compressor is shipped with a nominal dry nitrogen holding charge between 0.3 and 0.7 bar (4 psi and 10 psi) and is sealed with elastomer plugs.
Respect the following sequence:
Remove the nitrogen holding charge via the suction Schrader valve to avoid an oil mist blow out.
Each Danfoss VZH scroll compressor is equipped with one lift ring on the top shell.
• Always use one lift ring and discharge tube when lifting the compressor.
• Use lifting equipment rated and certified for the weight of the compressor or compressor assembly.
• A spreader bar rated for the weight of the compressor is highly recommended to ensure a better load distribution.
- Store the compressor between -35°C and 55°C (-31°F and 131°F) when it is charged with R410A refrigerant.
Remove the suction plug first and the discharge plug afterwards to avoid discharge check valve gets stuck in open position. An opened compressor must not be exposed to air for more than 20 minutes to avoid moisture is captured by the PVE oil.
• The use of lifting hooks closed with a clasp is recommended.
• Never use the lift rings on the compressor to lift the full unit.
Maintain the compressor in an upright position during all handling manoeuvres (maximum of 15° from vertical).

System pressure test and leak detection

Brazing procedure:
• Brazing operations must be performed by qualified personnel.
• Make sure that no electrical wiring is connected to the compressor.
• To prevent compressor shell and electrical box
overheating, use a heat shield and/or a heat­absorbent compound.
• Clean up connections with degreasing agent
• Flow nitrogen through the compressor.
• Use flux in paste or flux coated brazing rod.
Before eventual un-brazing of the compressor or any system component, the refrigerant charge must be removed.
The compressor has been strength tested and leak proof tested (<3g/year) at the factory. For system tests:
• Always use an inert gas such as Nitrogen or
Helium.
• Use brazing rod with a minimum of 5% silver content.
• It is recommended to use double-tipped torch using acetylene to ensure a uniform heating of connection.
• To enhance the resistance to rust, a varnish on
the connection is recommended.

Requirements:
• Never use the compressor to evacuate the system.
• Connect a vacuum pump to both the LP and HP sides.
• Evacuate the system to a pressure of 500 μm Hg (0.67 mbar / 0.02 in.Hg) absolute.
R
Initial charge:
• For the initial charge, the compressor must not run.
• Charge refrigerant as close as possible to the nominal system charge.
• This initial charging operation must be done in liquid phase between the condenser outlet and the filter drier.
Recommendations:
• Energized heaters improve moisture removal.
• Alternate vacuum phases and break vacuum. with Nitrogen to improve moisture removal.
For more detailed information see “Vacuum pump-down and dehydration procedure” TI-026-0302.
If needed, a complement of charge can be done:
• In liquid phase while compressor is running by slowly throttling liquid in.
• Never bypass safety low pressure switch.
For more detailed information see “Recommended refrigerant system charging practice“ FRCC.EN.050.

Dielectric strength and insulation resistance tests

INTEGRATION INTO SYSTEM
The tests are performed on each compressor at the factory between each phase and ground.
• Carry out a dielectric strength test by short­circuiting terminals L1, L2 and L3. Energize by max. 1920 V DC(hi-pot) for code G compressors and 1460 V DC(hi-pot) for code J compressors for one second between this short-circuit and the chassis, and leakage current must be less than 5 mA. When running dielectric strength tests of the entire installation, frequency converter and compressor electrical motor compressor test can be conducted together. When conducting a dielectric strength test, make sure the system is not under vacuum: this may cause electrical motor compressor failure.
R
Do not use a megohm meter nor apply power to the compressor while it is under vacuum as this may cause internal damage.
Please note, it is not recommended that a dielectric strength test be carried out too often as it may damage the motor. Nevertheless, if such a test is necessary, it must be performed at a lower voltage.
• Insulation resistance is measured with a 500 V DC megohm tester and must be higher than 1 megohm.
• The presence of refrigerant around the
motor windings will result in lower resistance values to ground and higher leakage current readings. Such readings do not indicate a faulty compressor. To prevent this, the system can be first operated briefly to distribute refrigerant.

Preliminary check

Check electrical power supply:
• Phase order: Reverse rotation is obvious if the compressor do not build up pressure and sound level is abnormal high. VZH compressor will only operate properly in one direction. If electrical connections are done correctly between the drive and the compressor terminals (compressor
terminals T1,T2,T3 and drive terminals U, V & W matching), the drive will provide correct phase supply to the compressor, and reverse rotation will be not possible:For more details refer to “Motor protection”.
• Voltage and voltage unbalance within tolerance: For more details refer to section “Motor voltage”.

Initial start-up

System monitoring

• Cranckcase heaters must be energized at least 6 hours in advance to remove refrigerant.
• Do not provide any power to the drive unless suction and discharge service valves on compressor are open, if installed.
• Energize the drive. The compressor must start, according to defined ramp-up settings. If the compressor does not start, check wiring conformity.
• Check the frequency converter control panel: If any alarm is displayed check the wiring and in
The system must be monitored after initial startup for a minimum of 60 minutes to ensure proper operating characteristics such as:
• Proper metering device operation and desired
superheat readings
• Suction and discharge pressure are within
acceptable levels
• Correct oil level in compressor sump indicating
proper oil return
• Low foaming in sight glass and compressor

particular the polarity of the control cables.If an alarm is shown, refer to the frequency converter application manual. Verify in particular the combination of compressor, frequency converter and refrigerant.
• Check current draw and voltage levels on the mains. The values for the compressor electrical motor can be directly displayed on the frequency converter control panel.
A short cycling protection is provided in the CDS frequency converter. It is factory preset “enabled” with the following parameters in:
28.01 - interval between 2 starts: 300 secondes
28.02 - minimum run time: 60 seconds.
This minimum run time is set to guaranty long enough running time at start up in order to create enough refrigerant flow velocity in the system to recover the oil to the compressor sump.
• Current draw of compressor within acceptable values (RLA ratings)
• No abnormal vibrations and noise.
GENERAL INFORMATIONPRODUCT INFORMATIONSYSTEM DESIGNINTEGRATION INTO SYSTEMORDERING INFORMATION

Oil level checking and top-up

In installations with good oil return and line runs up to 15 m (49 feet), no additional oil is required. If installation lines exceed 15 m (49 feet), additional oil may be needed. 1 or 2% of the total system refrigerant charge (in kg) can be used to roughly define the required oil top-up quantity (in liters) but in any case the oil charge has to be adjusted based on the oil level in the compressor sight glass.
When the compressor is running under stabilized conditions, the oil level must be visible in the sight glass.
The presence of foam filling in the sight glass indicates large concentration of refrigerant in the oil and / or presence of liquid returning to the compressor.
The oil level can also be checked a few minutes after the compressor stops, the level must be between 1/4 and 3/4 of sight glass.
When the compressor is off, the level in the sight glass can be influenced by the presence of refrigerant in the oil.
INTEGRATION INTO SYSTEM
Top-up the oil while the compressor is idle. Use the schrader connector or any other accessible connector on the compressor suction line and a suitable pump. See news bulletin “Lubricants filling in instructions for Danfoss Commercial Compressors” TI 2-025-0402.
