1 Introduction
CoreSense™ is an ingredient brand name for compressor electronics associated with Emerson‟s Copeland® brand
products. CoreSense™ technology uses compressor as a sensor to unlock information from within the compressor
providing value added features such as advanced motor protection, diagnostics, communication.
With active protection, advanced algorithms, and features like fault history and LED indicators, CoreSense™
Diagnostics for Copeland compressors enable technicians to diagnose the past and recent state of the system,
allowing for quicker, more accurate diagnostics and less down time. The CoreSense™ Diagnostics is initially
available as standard with the 4- and 6-cylinder Stream compressors.
Figure 1: Stream compressor with CoreSense™ Diagnostic

3.1 “Jog” feature
The reset button below the control module may be used as an emergency shutdown,
such as for clearing liquid during a start-up. After the module re-boots (approximately
3 seconds) the compressor will run again. The reset button may be pushed as necessary
to stop the compressor.

3.2 Crankcase heater (CCH) control
The sensor module contains an on-board CCH control relay. An auxiliary contactor is no longer required to turn the
heater on when the compressor turns off.
The appropriate voltage supply to the CCH power input terminals (115V/230V) is required.

3.3 Insufficient oil pressure protection
The CoreSense™ Diagnostics module replaces the mechanical oil pressure switch. Furthermore, it provides the
added value of communication for insufficient oil pressure warning and lockouts via LED flash codes and/or a
supervisory pack controller. Total insufficient oil pressure time for the compressor is stored and accumulated in the
module memory.
CoreSense™ Diagnostics will issue a warning when oil pressure differential falls below 0.48-0.62 bar for
4 seconds.
Once the oil pressure differential falls below 0.48-0.62 bar for 2 minutes (120 sec), the module will shut the
compressor off and a “low oil pressure lockout“ will be reported. Before using the reset button, troubleshooting
needs to be done to understand the failure. The compressor will switch back on once the reset has been activated
either manually or remotely through the communication network, or when power has been cycled to the
CoreSense™ module. This feature is not applicable to Copeland compressor models 4MTL (Stream CO2
compressors) as these have no positive oil pump fitted and are “splash” lubricated.
3.4 Motor overheat protection
Using Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) sensors on 4M* and 6M* Stream compressor models, the
CoreSense™ Diagnostics module provides motor overheating protection. The CoreSense™ Diagnostic module
replaces the Kriwan module INT69TM.
Alarm condition:
Trip condition: PTC Resistance > 4.5 kΩ;
Reset condition: PTC Resistance < 2.5 kΩ; 5 min time delay.
3.5 High discharge temperature protection
Discharge temperature protection is provided using a NTC sensor in the compressor cylinder head. The sensor is
pre-installed at the factory and connected to the module. CoreSense™ will protect the compressor from high
discharge temperature conditions. If the temperature sensor detects a discharge temperature higher than 154°C,
the CoreSense™ will shut off the compressor until the temperature cools down to an acceptable level (about
130°C).
Either trip or lockout alarm can be selected by user. Default is trip alarm.
Trip/lockout value ≥ 154°C for 2 sec.
Trip alarm: Automatic reset after 2 minutes; discharge temp < 130ºC.
Lockout alarm: Manual reset is necessary.
3.6 Locked rotor protection
Appears when the rotor is mechanically seized. Locked rotor current is expected to decrease within 4 seconds after
the motor comes up to speed.
3.7 Missing phase protection
If any one of the 3 power phases is missing immediately after the compressor contactor is energized, a singlephasing condition exists.
The maximum response time shall be 1.2 seconds from the time of contactor energization.
Alarm condition: If any phase voltage < 84% of max of 3 input voltages for a period of 1 second.
Trip time: 5 minutes with automatic reset.
Lockout condition: Appears after the 10 consecutive trip alarms. Manual reset (using reset button below
the module or using remote reset by pack controller).
In the case of a part winding motor this feature is detectable for primary winding only. Missing phase, voltage
imbalance and low voltage are not detectable for the secondary winding. A missing phase can be detected during
start-up, but not while the motor is running.
3.8 Low voltage protection
Appears when there is a low supply voltage.
5/17
Page 6
Technical Information
D7.21.2/1011/E
Alarm condition: Motor compressor voltage < low voltage setting at compressor running state. The default low
voltage setting is 75% of the nominal line voltage stored in the module for 2 sec.
Trip Time: 5 minutes.
The module determines the operating frequency of the compressor. The compressor low voltage setting shall be
lowered by the same percentage as the operating frequency if less than the nominal frequency. For example if a
60 Hz nominal frequency compressor is running at 57 Hz (5% less), then the low voltage setting shall be reduced
by 5%.
3.9 Voltage imbalance protection
The purpose of this protection feature is to protect the compressor against a voltage imbalance condition that leads
to motor overheating.
A configurable setting (default = 5%) for voltage imbalance is used to determine the operating limit of the
compressor.
Alarm condition:
Trip: When the voltage imbalance > 5% (configurable).
Reset: Automatic reset after 5 min; voltage imbalance < 5%.
3.10 Flash memory information

3.11 Modbus® communication
CoreSense™ Diagnostics has communication capability via a Modbus® network connection. With communication
enabled, CoreSense™ warnings, trips and lockouts can be displayed and recorded in a pack controller such as the
iPro Rack Controller from Dixell.
The CoreSense™ Diagnostics module is compatible with any other pack controller that has Modbus® protocol.
3.12 Local and remote reset
The CoreSense™ Diagnostics module is equipped with a reset button placed below the control module. The reset
button may be pushed as necessary to stop the compressor.
The CoreSense™ Diagnostics module is equipped with a remote reset capability, such that if a compressor is off in
a lockout condition, the user can remotely restart the compressor through their rack controller or compatible remote
access software.
NOTE: Service contractor and end user policies need to be considered when deciding whether or not to
use the remote reset feature in the pack controller.

Figure 7: CoreSense™ module with current sensor
4.2 Terminal box and current sensing transformer connections
For space reasons inside the compressor terminal box wires L1 and L2 connected to the sensor module need to be
exchanged in such a way that the black wire is connected to terminal 2 (V) and the white wire goes to terminal 1
(U) on the terminal plate as shown on the drawing. This results in that the current of L2 is sensed instead of L1.
4.2.1 Installation of current sensing module
One of the motor power leads passes through the “toroid” (current
sensing module). Information from the current sensing module is
used to determine running amps, power consumption and locked
rotor conditions. There are 3 voltage sensing leads attached to the
motor terminals and connected to the sensor module. Two of the
leads are white, and one is black. For proper calculation of power
factor and motor power it is necessary for the black voltage sensing
lead and the power lead through the current sensing module to be
connected to the same motor terminal.
Class II transformers have a maximum VA (Volt-Ampere) rating of
less than 100 and a maximum secondary output of 30 VAC.

Page 11
Technical Information
4.2.2 CoreSense™ Diagnostics with Υ/Δ motors
Terminal box and the current sensing “toroid” connections are
factory-installed. One of the motor power leads must be routed
through Current Sensing Transformer (see Figures 9 & 10 below).
Figure 9: Current sensing transformer
D7.21.2/1011/E
Figure 10: Wiring sensor module and leads routed through the current sensor
One motor lead must be routed through the centre opening of the current sensing transformer.
4.2.3 CoreSense™ Diagnostics with part winding
If using the CoreSense™ Diagnostics module with a part-winding start motor, one power lead of each of the
windings should be passed through the current sensing transformer in the same direction (see Figures 10 and 11)
to provide accurate compressor proofing. If the leads (L2 and L8 in picture below) are not routed in the same
direction, the running current may indicate close to zero.

5 CoreSense™ Diagnostics jumper settings
The last compressor in the daisy-chain must be “terminated” by moving the jumper from JP5 to JP3. For all other
compressors the jumper should remain in the default JP5 position.
JP4 should be set “1-2” if connected to an iPro rack controller. Set JP4 to “2-3” for other pack controllers.
Do not remove JP1. This is reserved for future use.

Assign a unique node address to each CoreSense™ diagnostics module using switches 1 through 5.
a. Set the communications baud rate for the module using switch 7. “Off” = 19200 baud, “On” = 9600 baud.
The baud rate for each module should be set to match the rack controller.
b. Set switch 8 to “Off” for no parity, to “On” for even parity.
c. Set switch 9 to “Off” for stand-alone mode, to “On” for network mode. Network mode will generate a
communications error if the rack controller fails to communicate with the device. For stand-alone mode, no
communications are expected so the communication error is blocked.
d. Factory default setting is “On” for dip-switch 10, ie, discharge temperature protection. If you want to
disconnect the discharge temperature sensor, turn off dip-switch 10.
Push the reset button after changing the switch settings.
Ensure that the dip-switch settings on each module match the settings for the selected controller communication
port.

Lockout: Appears when the
differential oil pressure is less than
0.48 – 0.62 bar for 2 minutes
continuous, or intermittent but
determined to be unsafe.
Loose wiring connections between
CoreSense™ module and oil
sensor.
Faulty oil sensor (missing O-ring
or clogged sensor screen).
Faulty oil pump.
Clogged strainer screen or worn
bearings.
Verify the oil level present in the sight glass. If the oil is not present, resolve reservoir
oil supply problem or oil level control setting issues.
Verify that the harness is fully engaged to the sensor.
Measure oil pump differential pressure. If less than 7 to 9 psi, inspect for clogged oil
screen, faulty oil pump, liquid floodback or worn bearings.
If good oil pressure exists, measure resistance across the oil sensor while the
compressor runs. If the sensor resistance is "open" inspect for clogged sensor screen
or missing O-ring.
If sensor resistance is "closed", temporarily jumper across the harness connector pins
(do not damage the pins!) while the compressor runs. If the oil warning does not go
away, verify harness connector engagement at the module circuit board.

connector on control module
Faulty CoreSense™ module.
In case of trip alarm, allow the motor to cool down for a minimum of 2 minutes (it may
take longer) and the compressor will start automatically.
In case of lockout alarm or multiple trips, check PTC resistance when the motor is cold
(off for at least an hour). If resistance is high, inspect for faulty sensor or loose
connection under terminal plate.
If resistance is low, inspect for loose terminal strip connections, harness connection
failure at circuit board, open harness circuit or high motor temp due to return gas
temperature, motor voltage or load condition.

Open discharge probe (faulty).
The probe connection has not
been made to the harness
connector.
The connector is not plugged into
the CoreSense™ circuit board.
The Discharge temperature has
exceeded the maximum limit
154°C.
Blocked condenser.
Possible loss of refrigerant.
If there is a warning, verify proper probe connection to the harness and proper
harness connection into the circuit board.
If there is a warning, unplug the discharge temp probe and verify if the resistance of
the probe is as specified vs its approximate ambient temperature.
If the probe resistance is correct inspect the harness connector receptacle for damage
and apply NyoGel 760G connector lubricant.
Trip or Lockout: resolve system issues (high superheat, high head pressure), inspect
for mechanical damage that can lead to high temps (valve plate gasket, suction or
discharge valve failure).
