CHAPTER 1
CCS Introduction
The Compressor Control System (CCS) is an advanced microprocessorbased control system designed for efficient and automatic control and monitoring of industrial refrigeration systems including screw compressors. The
controller is composed of a microprocessor board, Input/Output boards, a
keypad, and a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). The system uses the LCD to
present screens to the operator for information review and control.
The Screw Compressor User’s Manual provides the operator with the basic
information needed to configure and operate the compressor. The manual
is divided into several sections beginning with the General Operating Overview which contains system definitions, keypad functions, main LCD screen
layout, screen type designations, and generic alarm & failure information.
The remaining sections of the manual cover the control functions required
for operation of the compressor and detailed descriptions of the display
screens found in the system. Also included are appendices covering standard communications protocols, hardware channel assignments, and alarm
descriptions.

General Operating Overview
The following sections will give the user an overview of the general operating procedures for the CCS.
Definitions
CCS System Manager is the person who will assign user passwords,
access levels and screen access requirements.
Cursor is a field indicator used on data entry screens. There are four possible cursor types:
*represents a number field input
•
>represents a selectable field
•
“represents a string field
•
Xrepresents a hexadecimal field
•
The cursor shows the user which fields are changeable on a data entry
screen.
Display Area is the part of the LCD display that shows system information.
The display area will vary in size depending on whether a large character or
small character screen is being viewed.
Fields are places where the user enters control parameters.
Highlight is when the letters appear light on a dark background instead of
dark on a light background. The highlighted area may flash from light to
dark to stress its importance, and to gain the user’s immediate attention.
Hot Keys are the top-level system functions and menus. The hot keys are
located in a column on the left side of all large character screens.
Large Character Screens are screens that use large, double high characters, and contain the title banner and hot keys.
Main Status Screen is a large character status screen, which is considered
the main system status screen. This screen will also contain the alarm status, mode, and state of the system.

Parameter is a system control value, which is displayed by the system or input by the user.
Examples are suction pressure and high suction pressure alarm setpoint.
Screen is a method of displaying information to the user. The system contains eight types of
possible screens: menu screens, data entry screens, status screens, confirmation screens,
momentary screens, information screens, access screens, and log screens
Small Character Screens utilize the entire LCD display and use small characters to show
system information. These screens do not display the system hot keys.
Toggle is the process of moving from one selectable choice to the next by using the ENTER
key.
User is an individual or group of individuals who will use the system. A user is identified by a
user number ranging from 1 to 10. The user may also be referred to as the operator in this
document.

Status Screens
Status screens are used to display a summary of significant system information. The main
Status screen in a system is usually a large character text screen or graphics screen and
is the default screen displayed on the LCD. The main Status screen will be replaced by
the Active Alarm and Failure screen when a new alarm or failure exists or by the AutoStart Warning screen if the compressor is online and ready to start.
The operator may view each of the system's available status screens by scrolling through
using the ENTER, PG UP, PG DN, Right Arrow, or Left Arrow keys. The number of status
screens on a system will vary depending upon the individual system's configuration.
Another feature of the system is that it will automatically return to the main status screen
after 10 minutes of no keyboard activity. Below is an example of a Status screen.

Alarms & Failures
The CCS continually monitors the system parameters and compares them to alarm and failure setpoints to inform the operator of the system status. An alarm is intended to alert the
operator that an undesirable condition exists. A failure is an indication that a more severe system condition exists and may cause the system or component to shutdown. The system
parameters are compared to both operator-defined setpoints, and M&M Original Equipment
Manufacture (OEM) safety setpoints. An alarm or failure is detected when a system parameter is outside the acceptable range of the setpoints.
Certain alarms and failures may also be suppressed under specific conditions. For example,
the low oil pressure alarm is suppressed when the compressor is not running. Additionally, the
detection of certain alarms and failures can be delayed. For example, the low suction pressure failure is delayed for 10 seconds, in other words the suction pressure must be below the
low failure setpoint for 10 consecutive seconds before the system is shutdown.
Some alarm and failure setpoints are assigned factory default values, which may not be
changed by the operator. These are called OEM safety setpoints and typically indicate a condition that may cause damage to the equipment. A detailed list of all system alarms and failures can be found in Appendix A.
When an alarm or failure is detected the sequence of operations is as follows:
The equipment controlled by the CCS may be stopped, as in the case of a compressor, when
a failure occurs.
The alarm or failure is entered into the active alarm and failure list and the current status
screen on the display is replaced with the active alarm and failure screen.
An entry is made in the appropriate alarm or failure log.
A special entry is made in the operation and trend logs listing the parameter values at the time
of the alarm or failure.
The current alarms and failures present on a system can be viewed on the active alarms &
failures status screen. The operator must acknowledge and clear alarms/failures from this
screen or the main status screen using the procedures covered in this section.
When a new alarm or failure becomes active, the Active Alarm & Failure status screen will be
displayed as the default status screen. The user can view all of the active alarms by scrolling
through the alarms using the up and down arrow keys. An example of the alarm & failure status screen is shown below.

CHAPTER 3
Compressor Controls
The following sections discuss the standard and optional features
contained in the CCS Screw Compressor package.
Modes Of Operation
The Screw Compressor package has several modes of operation.
The mode is changed by using the MODE hot key and making a
selection from the operation mode menu. The modes of operation
are as follows:
1.Manual - Starting, Stopping and Capacity Control are all
performed manually.
2.Automatic - Starting and Stopping can be performed man-
ually or automatically based on Suction Pressure or Process Temperature. Capacity Control is performed
automatically to maintain a specific control setpoint.
3.Remote - Starting and Stopping are performed using the
external Remote Start/Stop input or from a remote computer if network communications are enabled. Capacity
Control is performed using external load and unload inputs
or messages from a remote computer. A set of discrete
outputs are available for remote status information.
4.Auto-Remote - Similar to the Automatic mode except starting and stopping are performed using the external Remote
Start/Stop input or messages from a remote computer.
The setpoint group can also be selected from external signals or a remote computer.
5.Sequenced - This mode is utilized when two or more com-
pressors are being used to control the same load.
6.Local - When the compressor is in Local mode, Starting,
Stopping, and Capacity Control are identical to the Manual
mode. The only difference is that when the compressor is
in Local mode, users at remote control locations do not
have the ability to control the compressor or change the
mode.
NOTE: The Remote, Auto-Remote, and Sequenced modes
are available as system options.

Standard Screw Compressor - RWB Series
Lubrication System
The RWB screw compressor is designed to be self-lubricating. The oil being supplied to
the compressor is at discharge pressure and the oil porting to all parts of the compressor
is below discharge pressure. The normal process of gas compression allows the compressor to act as its own oil pump. An oil pump is required to pre-lubricate the bearings
and allow slide valve control during startup. Under operating conditions where the differential pressure (discharge - suction) is too low, a cycling or full lube oil pump is required.
The CCS control for the different lubrication system options is as follows.
Oil Pump Configuration
• Pre-Lube Pump - For normal operations an oil pump is only required to pre-lubricate the bearings and to supply pressure to move the Vi slide stop and the capacity
slide valve when the compressor motor is not running. The pre-lube oil pump is
started before the motor is started and stopped when the starting sequence is complete. The oil pump will be restarted when the compressor is stopped to allow the
slide valve and Vi slide stop to be repositioned in anticipation of the next start.
• Cycling Oil Pump - The cycling oil pump is designed to provide those high stage
applications that operate with normal to low differential pressure ( discharge - suction) with adequate compressor lubrication. The oil pump is started to pre-lubricate
the bearings and to supply pressure to move the Vi slide stop and the capacity slide
valve when the compressor motor is not running. Once the starting sequence is
complete the oil pump is stopped whenever the differential pressure is greater than
95 PSID. The pump will restart whenever the differential pressure drops below 85
PSID.
The pump will turn off once the differential pressure (DP-SP) is greater than 95
PSID. The oil pump will be restarted if the differential pressure drops below 85
PSID.
• Full Lube -The full lube oil pump is used on booster compressors or whenever the
differential ( discharge - suction) is consistently low. The oil pump is started to prelubricate the bearings and to supply pressure to move the slide valve and Vi slide
stop during the starting sequence. The pump remains running until the compressor
is stopped.
The type of oil pump being utilized is configured in the micro processor using Dip
Switches on the main board. Switch bank SW3, switches 1 and 2, are used to
select the configuration as described below:
SW3-1SW3-2

PRE-LUBEONOFF
CYCLINGOFFON

The Oil Pump must be configured using the dip switches that match the installed compressor configuration. This configuration should only be adjusted by qualified personnel.

Chapter 3: Starting the Screw Compressor
Oil Pressure Calculations
The Oil Pressure and Oil Filter Pressure values are computed using a combination of the
Oil Pressure After Filter, Oil Pressure Before Filter, and Discharge Pressure transducers.
The following formulas are used:
For a Full Lube Oil Pump the oil pressure is always computed as:
Oil Pressure = Oil Pressure After Filter - Discharge Pressure.
For Cycling and Pre-Lube Pumps:
If the motor is off, Oil Pressure = Oil Pressure After Filter - Discharge Pressure.
If the motor is on, Oil Pressure = Oil Pressure After Filter - Suction Pressure
The Oil Filter Pressure is always computed as:
Oil Filter Pressure = Oil Pressure Before Filter - Oil Pressure After Filter.
Oil Level Indication
When a pre-lube or a cycling oil pump is used, an oil level indicator switch is installed in
the oil separator. This switch opens when the oil level is too low for compressor operation
and the compressor is failed. The level switch is required since the oil pressure is computed as the difference between the oil pressure after filter sensor and suction pressure
sensor when the motor is running. This value could be at normal operating levels even if
oil is not present. When a full time oil pump is used the level switch is not used.
Starting the Screw Compressor
Once a start has been requested, the CCS will delay a minimum of eight (8) seconds before
starting the motor. The minimum start delay is in place to provide the operator an opportunity
to abort the start if unsafe conditions exist.
Once the compressor motor has started, the CCS will delay a minimum of fifteen (15) seconds
before transitioning into the running state. This “up to speed” delay is in place to assure the
motor is turning at full RPM, and allow the system to stabilize from the effects of starting the
motor.
All Alarms and Failures based on sensor values and sensor failures are inhibited during the
“up to speed” delay.
On RWB compressors, the standard oil pressure alarms and failures are inhibited for two (2)
minutes after the motor starts.
Once a start request is made, the microprocessor will unload the slide valve utilizing the
unload solenoid. The slide valve position must be below 5% before the compressor will be

M&M R

Page 38
Standard Screw Compressor - RWB Series
allowed to start. If the slide valve position does not move below 5% within 5 minuets, the
compressor will be failed on START SLIDE POSITION. Once the motor starts, the slide valve
position is monitored while the compressor is coming up to speed. If the slide valve position
increases to above 10% during this time, the compressor will be failed on START SLIDE POSITION also
The oil pressure is checked at all times to assure it is above the OEM minimum (20 PSID for
Full Lube, and 10 PSID for Cycling and Pre-lube) at all times. If the oil pressure drops below
this setting within the first two minutes of operation, this compressor will be failed on OEM START OIL PRESS LOW.
The sequence for starting the compressor varies based on the Lubrication System configuration as described below:
1.The oil pump is started.
2.The oil pressure must rise above the OEM start oil pressure setpoint and maintain
that pressure for at least 6 seconds. For pre-lube and cycling oil pumps the OEM
start oil pressure setpoint is 5 PSIG. For a full lube oil pump the OEM start oil pressure is 20 PSIG. If the oil pressure fails to exceed these limits within 2 minutes the
start sequence fails on OEM START OIL PRESS LOW.
3.The slide valve is unloaded and must move below 5% before the compressor can
start. If the slide valve does not respond within 2 minutes the start sequence is failed
on START SLIDE POSITION. Unloading is continued while the compressor is start-
ing to assure that the slide valve does not load.
4.The Vi slide stop is decreased to the low Vi position for compressor start.
5.Once the above conditions are met the motor is started and the anti-cycle timer
begins counting.
6.After the motor starts, checks on the oil pressure are delayed for six (6) seconds.
After this initial delay the oil pressure is checked to assure that it remains above the
OEM start oil pressure setpoint ( 5 PSIG for pre-lube and cycling oil pumps and 20
PSIG for full-lube lube oil pumps ).
7.The oil pressure is also checked to assure that it exceeds the OEM transition to run
setpoint. For full-lube oil pumps the setpoint remains 20 PSIG. For cycling or prelube pumps the setpoint is 55 PSIG. If the oil pressure fails to reach these values
within the 2 minute maximum start delay the compressor is failed on START OIL PRESS LOW.
8.Once all of the above criteria have been achieved the screw compressor will transition into the running state where capacity control can be performed.
The screw compressor can be started manually, automatically, or remotely based on the operating mode chosen. The compressor will not start in any mode if a failure condition exists.

Manual Mode
Manual Start is accomplished by selecting the START hot key and answering yes to the
start confirmation screen. A manual start is used in Manual mode, Local mode, or Automatic mode when automatic Start/Stop is disabled.

Chapter 3: Starting the Screw Compressor
Automatic Mode
In Automatic mode the compressor can be started automatically based on suction pressure or process temperature. Automatic starting is enabled on the Miscellaneous Control
screen under the MISC hot key. Once the Auto Start/Stop feature is enabled the operator
must place the compressor on-line using the START hot key. If the compressor is not
needed at that time it will immediately go to the Cut-Out state and will start automatically
whenever required. If the control parameter is already above the Cut-In setpoint, the compressor will start immediately. A failure or manual stop will take the compressor off-line.
Remote/Auto Remote Mode
I/O Control
When remote operation is desired using discrete I/O signals, the remote Start/Stop
input is used to start and stop the screw compressor in the Remote mode and the
Auto-Remote mode. In both modes, the compressor must first be placed on-line by
the operator through the use of the START hot key. Once the compressor is on-line,
the Remote Start/Stop input may be energized to start the compressor. When the
input is de-energized, the compressor will stop but remain on-line. A failure or manual
stop command will stop the compressor and force it off-line.
NOTE: Before the remote location can control the system, the user must set the operating mode,
and place the screw compressor on-line using the START hot key. Then, and only then, is
the system ready to accept remote control signals.
Network Control
When the Network Communications option is enabled, starting in the Remote or AutoRemote mode is performed using messages from a remote computer. It is required
that the compressor be placed on-line via the keypad or using an on-line message.
For more information on Network Operation, please refer to Appendix C.
Sequenced Mode
In Sequenced mode, the compressor takes commands from an M&M Master Sequencer
Control Panel. The Sequenced mode can be selected from the operating modes menu
under the MODE hot key. Once this mode is selected the screw compressor must be
placed on-line by using the START hot key. Only when the screw compressor is placed
on-line will the CCS respond to control signals from the master sequencer.

Stopping the Screw Compressor
The stopping sequence is as follows:
1.The Motor is stopped.
2.Once the starter has disengaged the slide valve is moved to the fully unloaded position (below 5%). If the slide valve does not respond within two (2) minutes, the stop
sequence is failed on OEM STOP SLIDE POSITION HIGH.
3.The Liquid Injection is turned off and the oil temperature is regulated using the oil
heaters.
The screw compressor can be stopped manually or automatically depending on the operating
mode. Any failure will automatically stop the compressor.
Manual Mode
A manual stop is accomplished by using the stop button on the CCS panel. The stop button is active on all screens and causes an immediate shutdown of the motor. Use of the
manual Stop button will also take the compressor off-line.
Automatic Mode
When the Auto Start/Stop feature is enabled and the compressor is in the automatic
mode, the compressor will stop automatically when the control parameter falls below the
cut-out setpoint.
Remote Mode
I/O Control
When remote operation is desired using discrete I/O signals, the Remote Start/Stop
input signal is used to stop the compressor for the Remote and Auto-Remote modes.
When the Remote Start/Stop input is de-energized, the compressor will stop but
remain on-line. A failure or manual stop command will stop the compressor and force
it off-line.
Network Control
When the Network Communications option is enabled, stopping in the Remote and
Auto-Remote modes is performed using messages from a remote computer. Separate messages are available to stop the compressor and leave it on-line, or to stop
the compressor and force it off-line. For more information on network operation,
please refer to Appendix C.

Chapter 3: Capacity Control
Sequenced Mode
When the STOP command is received from the master sequencer, the CCS will stop the
screw compressor automatically and leave it on-line for sequenced operation. While
stopped on-line, the compressor is available for sequencing and in standby waiting for
commands.
Capacity Control
Capacity Control on the screw compressor is performed by adjusting the position of the slide
valve. Loading the slide valve increases the compressor capacity. Unloading the slide valve
decreases the compressor capacity. Capacity Control can be performed manually or automatically depending on the mode of operation.
Computed Slide Valve Position
The RWB compressor utilizes a variable Vi slide stop that dynamically changes the distance of travel of the capacity slide valve. The slide valve position presented to the operator on the main status screen and other screens for reference is automatically adjusted
based on the Vi Slide stop position. Thus the slide valve position shown is always ranged
from 0-100% corresponding to minimal load and full load regardless of Vi position. The
actual sensor readings can be viewed and on the View analog screen.
NOTE: Calibration of the slide valve position should only be done when the Vi slide stop is in the low
Vi position.
Manual Capacity Control
In Manual mode or Local mode the slide valve is adjusted using the keypad on the CCS.
The up-arrow is used to load the slide valve and the down arrow to unload the slide valve.
The CLEAR button is used to stop loading or unloading. Manual capacity control can only
be performed when viewing the main Status screen or the Graphics Status screen.
Automatic Capacity Control
Automatic Capacity Control is accomplished by moving the slide valve to load and unload
the compressor in response to changes in the control parameter (suction pressure or process temperature). The slide valve movement is achieved using a time proportional control strategy. The operator can define Cut-In, Cut-Out, and Control setpoints. These
setpoints are referred to as a control group. The active control group can either be
selected manually by using the active group screen or automatically through setpoint
scheduling. The operator can also define a minimum and maximum slide valve position
which is used as lower and upper limits for the slide valve during automatic capacity control operations.

Standard Screw Compressor - RWB Series
Control Groups
Four groups of control setpoints can be defined for use with automatic capacity control. Each setpoint group consist of a cut-in, cut-out, control, and low alarm and failure setpoints. The control associated with these pressures is as follows;
Cut-Out Setpoint - The CCS will stop the compressor when the suction pressure or
process temperature goes below the cut-out setpoint.
Cut-In Setpoint - The CCS will start the compressor when the suction pressure or
process temperature goes above the cut-in setpoint.
Control Setpoint - The CCS will adjust the slide valve position in an attempt to maintain the suction pressure or process temperature at the control setpoint.
Low Alarm/Failures Setpoints - These are the low suction pressure or process tem-
perature alarm and failure values associated with the control setpoint. In Sequenced
mode, the local setpoints are replaced by the Sequencer low alarm and failure setpoints transmitted by the master sequencer controller.
Time Proportional Control Strategy
The length of time the slide valve is moved during automatic capacity control is determined by a time proportional control strategy. The slide valve move time is proportional to the difference between the control parameter and the control setpoint. The
parameters that define the move time are bandwidth, deadband, short pulse, long
pulse, and slide valve update time. These parameters are defined for both load and
unload conditions by the operator. The definition and description of these parameters
is as follows:
Deadband - When the difference between the control setpoint and the control parameter is less than the deadband value no slide valve movement will take place. If the
deadband values are too small, the slide valve may continuously hunt for the proper
setting very close to the control setpoint resulting in excessive slide valve wear. If the
deadband values are too large, the compressor may not hold the control parameter
close enough to the control setpoint resulting in inefficient capacity control.
Short Pulse - This is the shortest amount of time the slide valve is moved to load or
unload the system. The short pulse time is the fine adjustment for control parameter
differentials slightly above or below the deadband values. If the shortest pulse is too
long the slide valve may continuously overshoot the optimal position resulting in
excessive slide valve wear.
Bandwidth - This parameter adjusts the overall sensitivity of the control strategy. The
slide valve move time is computed to be between the shortest and longest pulse while
the control parameter is outside the deadband but inside the bandwidth. The move
time approaches the longest pulse time as the difference between the control parameter and the control setpoint approaches the bandwidth value. If the bandwidth value
is too small, the compressor will respond quickly and may constantly overshoot the
optimal position. If the bandwidth values are too large the compressor will react

Chapter 3: Capacity Control
slowly to control parameter changes. While the control parameter is outside the bandwidth values the slide valve is continuously loaded or unloaded.
Long Pulse - This is the longest amount of time used to move the slide valve while
loading or unloading the compressor. This time period is used when the control
parameter differential is equal to the bandwidth value. If the longest pulse is too long
the compressor may overshoot the optimal position. If the value is too short the slide
valve will react slowly to large changes in the control parameter.
Update Time - This is the time interval between computations of slide valve move
time. Once a required move time is calculated the CCS waits the update time interval
before another computation is made. This time is normally greater than or equal to
the long pulse.
The relationship of these parameters can be seen in the time proportional control
strategy diagrams shown below:

Network Control
When the Network Communications option is enabled, and the compressor is in the
Auto-Remote mode, capacity control is performed using Automatic Capacity Control.
The control setpoint is selected using setpoint messages from a remote computer.
Sequenced Capacity Control
While in the Sequenced mode, Automatic Capacity Control is used to adjust the slide
valve as documented above. When a sequenced compressor is on-line, one of the following three commands will be sent from the master sequencer controller.
• TrimWhen the trim command is sent from the master sequencer, the CCS
will start the screw compressor. The Control Parameter and Control
Setpoint will be also be sent from the master, and the compressor will
begin making slide valve adjustments using Automatic Capacity Control. Once the compressor is started, the status area will display
RUN-TRIM indicating that the trim command was received.
• Full LoadWhen the Full Load command is sent from the master sequencer, the
CCS will force and hold the slide valve at the fully loaded position.
When the Full Load command has been received, the status area will
display FULL LOAD.
• Seq-StopWhen the Seq Stop command is received from the master sequencer
the CCS will stop the screw compressor automatically and leave it
on-line for sequenced operation.
Low Alarm and Failure Setpoints
When Sequenced mode is enabled and the compressor is online or running, the local
low alarm and failure setpoints are replaced by the Sequencer low alarm and failure
setpoints. This is true for both Suction Pressure and Process Temperature operation.
The local sensor is still used to generate the alarm or failure condition.
Running in Trim Mode
When the trim command is sent from the master sequencer the CCS receives the
System Control Parameter, System Control Setpoint, and the sequencer load and
unload deadband and bandwidth parameters. These new control parameters are
used instead of those defined on the CCS itself. The compressor’s local long-pulse,
short-pulse, and update time are used for slide valve movement.
The main status page will identify the control setpoint group as SY indicating that it is
the System Control Setpoint. Automatic Capacity Control is used to adjust the slide
valve while in Sequenced mode. The System Control Parameter, System Control setpoints, and Low Alarm and Failure setpoints are sent to the compressor periodically
by the master sequencer to ensure that the compressor is always using current data.
All automatic starting and stopping of the screw compressor is controlled by the master sequencer. The local screw's Cut-In and Cut-Out controls are also disabled. When
the screw compressor is fully loaded, limited, or forced to unload due to high Motor

Chapter 3: Capacity Control
Current, the CCS informs the master sequencer that no further capacity increases are
possible and additional compressors may be needed.
Running in Full Load Mode
When the Full Load command is received the CCS disables all capacity control and
locks the slide valve at the fully loaded position. However, normal limiting and unloading functions will still be active.
Anti-Cycle in Sequenced Mode
While in the Sequenced mode the anti-cycle time takes on a new role. If the master
sequencer requests a screw compressor to stop but time is still remaining on the anticycle timer, the compressor will not stop. The compressor will remain running, at its
minimum slide valve position, until the anti-cycle timer expires. This procedure
ensures that the compressor is always available for the next sequenced start. If the
compressor should be stopped manually, or due to a failure, with time remaining on
the anti-cycle timer it would then be unavailable for sequencing until the timer expires.
Forced Unloading & Limiting
Forced Unloading and Limiting are performed to protect the system under extreme conditions or to slow-down the rate of capacity increase. The CCS may unload the compressor
or limit loading of the compressor due to high motor current or high discharge pressure. In
the Manual mode of operation, only high motor current limiting and forced unloading is
enabled. Forced unloading and limiting will cancel any ongoing capacity control movements of the slide valve. If a parameter exceeds the high limit setpoint the compressor
will be limited (not allowed to load). If a parameter exceeds the high unload setpoint the
compressor will be forced to unload until the parameter is reduced.
Ramp Start
Ramp Start adjusts the forced unloading and limiting setpoints during a period of time
after the compressor is started. Ramp start is used to reduce the demand power requirements during compressor startup. Each high unload and high limit setpoint has associated
with it a similar ramp unload and ramp limit setpoint. Also associated with each different
parameter is a ramp duration time. After the compressor has started, the forced unloading
and limiting setpoints are gradually changed from the ramp setpoints to the high setpoints
during the ramp duration time. The Discharge Pressure Ramp Start parameters are setup
on the Discharge Pressure Setpoints screen under the SETPT hot key. The Motor Current
Ramp Start parameters are setup on the Motor Current Setpoints screen under the
SETPT hot key.
The relationship of the ramp start feature to unloading and limiting can be seen in the following figure.

Slide Valve Position Ramp Start Limiting
The Slide Valve Position Ramp Start feature has been provided to limit capacity increases
after the compressor starts. The operator can define the minimum positions to start ramping, the total time to limit capacity increases and the maximum position. Once the compressor is started the capacity ramp timer is started, and the capacity will be allowed to
increase to the minimum position as soon as required. Once at the minimum, capacity
increases will be limited. The maximum allowable position of the slide valve will be gradually increased from the minimum position to the maximum position over the ramp duration. When the capacity is limited due to this feature, the screw state will display
“LIMIT:SV”. Unlike other limiting and unloading, the compressor is not considered fully
loaded when in this state. This feature is available in Automatic, Auto-Remote and
Sequenced mode. When in sequenced mode, the capacity ramp is also used to limit
movement of the slide valve when the compressor is a fully loaded machine. If a fully
loaded compressor is forced to unload for any reason, the capacity ramp will engage from
the current slide valve position once capacity control resumes. The capacity ramp start
parameters are set-up on the slide valve position setpoint screen.

Unload Solenoid Configuration
The unload solenoid for the A -Series compressors has two configurations, In the
original configuration, the solenoid is normally closed, energized to unload the compressor. In later versions, the unload solenoid is normally open, and is de-energized
to unload the compressor. The advantage of this new valve configuration is that when
power is lost to the compressor, the unit will naturally unload. The type of valve being
used is configured using a dip switch on the main board. When SW3 switch #4 is on,
the valves are assumed to be normally closed. When Sw3 switch #4 is off, the valves
are assumed to be normally open. If the unload solenoid is normally open (energize
to close), the word "(REV)" will be present on the view I/O screen indicating reverse
acting.
Setpoint Scheduling
Setpoint scheduling is the automatic switching of Suction Pressure or Process Temperature
control setpoint groups based on time of the day and day of the week. The operator can define
up to seven (7) different daily time schedules and one weekly schedule. Schedule events can
be manually overridden and scheduling can be enabled or disabled by the operator. Setup of
schedules and control of the scheduling is performed under the SETPT hot key.
Daily Schedules
Each daily time schedule consists of up to eight (8) different time-of-day slots. For each
time-of-day slot the operator can define the time (either in 12 or 24 hour mode, depending
on system clock mode selected) and the desired setpoint group number. Unused time
slots are ignored and the schedule may be entered in any order. When the schedule is
saved it is reordered chronologically. Each daily schedule is identified by a schedule
name (SCH1 - SCH7).
Weekly Schedule
The weekly schedule allows the operator to assign different daily schedules to each day of
the week. A new day begins and schedules change at midnight. The current daily schedule or control group may be overridden by the operator at anytime. Any item which has
been manually overridden will be changed when the next schedule change occurs.

Standard Screw Compressor - RWB Series
Variable Vi Slide Stop Control
Vi refers to the volumetric ratio of the screw compressor. The Vi is computed by taking the
ratio of the volume of gas when compression begins to the volume of gas when discharge
begins. In a fixed Vi screw compressor the Vi is determined by the size of the discharge port
and must be matched to the operating conditions of the system. If the operating conditions
change the compressor will operate at a reduced efficiency due to over compression or under
compression of the gas. The RWB screw compressors contains an additional hydraulic piston
which adjusts the size of the discharge port. The Vi slide stop is adjusted in response to operating condition changes to increase compressor efficiency and reduce operating cost. The
RWB Vi slide stop ranges from a setting of 2.2 to 5.0.
Vi Adjustments
The Vi slide stop is adjusted by the CCS based on the ratio between discharge pres-
sure and suction pressure. The Vi slide stop adjustments are performed periodically
based on a Vi update timer or when requested by the operator. The duration of the Vi
update time is user programmable. Once the timer expires an adjustment is made.
During Vi adjustments, no capacity control operations are performed. While the compressor is starting and for 3 minutes after it is running Vi adjustments are disabled.
Manual Vi Adjustment
In every mode except manual, the CCS adjust the Vi automatically every time the Vi
update timer expires. The operator can force a Vi adjustment in every mode from the
Vi status screen. When either of the arrow keys is pressed from the Vi status screen
a Vi adjustment is started immediately.
Vi Slide Stop and Capacity Slide Valve Interference
The adjustments of the Vi slide stop limits the travel of the capacity slide valve. If high Vi
is required, the capacity slide valve will only be able to load to a 60% indicated position.
When the capacity slide valve is at 60% and the Vi slide stop is at the high Vi position the
compressor is at full-load high Vi. If low Vi is required the capacity slide valve is able to
load to 100% indicated position. When the capacity slide valve is at 100% and the Vi
slide valve is at the low Vi position the system is at full-load low Vi. Intermediate Vi positions will restrict the movement of the capacity slide valve between 60% and 100%. The
capacity of the compressor is the same at full-load high Vi and full-load low Vi. The interference of the Vi and capacity slide valve requires that the capacity slide valve be moved
along with the Vi slide valve when above 60% indicated.
VI Position Correction
The RWB compressor Vi slide stop indicator measures the linear position of the Vi slide
stop along its range of travel. This sensor value is then corrected based on the Vi non linear characteristics to produce a corrected Vi position. The corrected Vi position is what is
displayed on status screens and recorded in the logs. The actual sensor readings can be
viewed and on the View analog screen.
3-16
NOTE: Calibration of the Vi position should only be done using the endpoints (Minimum Vi and Max-
imum Vi). It should never be calibrated at some mid position.

Chapter 3: Oil Temperature Regulation
Oil Temperature Regulation
The oil temperature in the oil separator is regulated when the screw compressor is stopped.
The temperature is maintained above the oil heater setpoint with a deadband of +5 degrees.
When the compressor is stopped and the Oil Sump Temperature falls below the Heater Control setpoint, the oil heaters will be turned on. When the Oil Sump Temperature rises 5 degrees
above the Heater Control setpoint, the oil heaters will be turned off. The Heater Control setpoint may be found on the Oil Temperature Setpoints screen under the SETPT hot key.
Liquid Injection Oil Cooling (Option)
The RWB screw compressor may be configured for single port or dual port liquid injection
cooling. When either of the liquid injection options is installed, two additional setpoints will
appear on the oil temperature setpoint screen. The liquid injection cut-in setpoint defines the
oil temperature at which liquid injection will be started. The liquid injection cut-out setpoint
defines the oil temperature at which liquid injection will be stopped.
The RWB CCS is configured for dual port liquid injection whenever the liquid injection option is
installed. All solenoid outputs will be generated but if no solenoid is attached to the output the
signal is ignored.
Single Port Liquid Injection
Single port liquid injection uses one main injection solenoid which is opened and closed
based on oil temperature whenever the motor is running.
Dual Port Liquid Injection
Dual port liquid injection utilizes a main injection solenoid and a second solenoid to switch
between a low Vi and a high Vi injection port. The main injection solenoid is open and
closed based on temperature whenever the motor is running. The high/low Vi solenoid is
controlled based on the current Vi setting. When the Vi is above 3.5 the high/Low Vi solenoid is energized. When the Vi is below 3.5 the high/low Vi solenoid will be de-energized.
Both solenoids will be de-energized when the motor is stopped.
Anti-Cycle Timer
The Anti-Cycle timer is used to avoid repeated start attempts within a 20 minute period of time.
The Anti-Cycle timer is started with the motor and must completely count down before the
motor can be started again. The time period is not adjustable by the operator.

Power Fail Restart
The operator can define a power fail restart time from the miscellaneous time setpoint screen.
If the CCS is reset manually or due to a loss of power the down time is calculated and compared to this setpoint. If power was off longer than the power fail restart time a failure is
reported. If the power loss was less then the setpoint no failure is reported and the compressor remains on-line and is allowed to automatically restart if required.

A high signal indicates the screw compressor cannot be started due to the anticycle timer.
A high signal indicates the screw compressor is currently limited or being
forced to unload due to high motor current, high discharge pressure, or capacity ramp.
A high signal indicates the slide valve is above the minimal load position.
A high signal indicates the slide valve is above the intermediate load position.
A high signal indicates the slide valve is fully loaded.
DESCRIPTION
The minimal and intermediate load positions can be defined using the Remote Slide Valve
Setup screen from the Configuration menu. This allows the operator to adjust the remote
slide valve outputs to the needs of the facility.
3-18
Process Temperature Control (Option)
When the Process Temperature option is enabled, the screw compressor slide valve position
is adjusted to maintain the outlet temperature of a product or process instead of suction pressure (e.g. chiller outlet temperature control). The control strategy is documented in the
Capacity Control section above.

Chapter 3: Economizer Control (Option)
Economizer Control (Option)
The Economizer Control option provides an intermediate pressure port located between the
primary suction and discharge ports on the screw compressor. The Economizer Solenoid output is used to control the flow of liquid into the economizer vessel or to control a suction solenoid at the economizer port.
The Economizer Solenoid output may be forced on, forced off, controlled automatically based
on the slide valve position, or sequenced by the master sequencer. The Economizer mode
(AUTO, MAN ON, MAN OFF, or SEQ) and automatic control setpoints can be adjusted from
the Economizer Control screen under the CNTRL hot key.
Automatic Mode
In Automatic mode, the Economizer Solenoid is controlled based on the slide valve position of the compressor. When the compressor is running and the slide valve position is
above the cut-in setpoint, the Economizer Solenoid will be energized. When the slide
valve position drops below the cut-out setpoint or the compressor is stopped, the Economizer Solenoid will be de-energized.
Manual On Mode
When the Economizer Control is in the Manual On mode, the Economizer Output is energized whenever the compressor is running.
Manual Off Mode
When the Economizer Control is in the Manual Off mode, the Economizer Output is deenergized at all times.
Sequenced Mode
When the Economizer Control is in the Sequenced mode, the Economizer Output is controlled by the master sequencer controller at the master control panel.
Power Assist (Option)
In low temperature booster applications, more positive suction check valve closure may be
needed. The power assist option supplies this positive closure by allowing high pressure gas
to assist the spring tension of the check valve. The high pressure gas supply is typically taken
from the high stage discharge. When the compressor stops, high pressure gas is vented to
the suction check by opening the power assist solenoid. The solenoid is held open for 30 seconds. The compressor will remain in the stopping state until the power assist solenoid is
closed.

Local Mode
Local mode is used to allow service personnel to operate or lock-out the equipment
without interference from other users at remote locations. Once the mode is changed
to Local at the panel, other operators cannot change the mode or start and stop the
compressor. Compressor operation in Local mode is the same as Manual mode.
Manual Mode
Manual mode is used primarily for startup and diagnostic purposes by operators at
the plant. Starting, stopping, loading and unloading are generally performed through
the keypad.
Automatic Mode
Automatic mode is the primary operational configuration for stand-alone compressors. The capacity of the machine is automatically adjusted to achieve the control setpoint. The control setpoint can be manually adjusted or scheduled by time-of-day and
day-of-week. The compressor may also be started and stopped automatically using
cut-in and cut-out setpoints.

Remote Mode
The Remote mode is only available if the Remote option is enabled. It is primarily
used for systems where another control system is responsible for starting, stopping,

Remote Load and Unload inputs for capacity control. A set of discrete outputs are
available for remote status information.
Auto-Remote Mode
The Auto-Remote mode is only available if the Auto-Remote option is enabled. It is
primarily used for systems where another control system is responsible for starting
and stopping the compressor but cannot directly perform capacity control. AutoRemote mode uses the external Remote Start/Stop input and Remote Setpoint selection inputs for capacity control.
Sequenced Mode
The Sequenced mode is only available if the Sequenced option is enabled. It is used
in M&M control systems where a master sequencer controller is responsible for starting and stopping multiple compressors in a system. Capacity control in Sequenced
mode is performed by the compressor based on setpoints and control parameters
sent by the master sequencer.

Logging Functions
The CCS records the systems parameters and conditions for later
use in a set of logs. Each log has a limit on the number of entries
that it can store, so as the log fills-up the oldest entries are replaced
by the most recent ones. The system maintains the following standard logs and possibly one or more optional logs. The System Log
option requires the M&M Refrigeration, Inc. PC Monitor ™ package.
•Operations Log
•Trend Log
•Alarm Log
•Failure Log
•User Log
•KW Log (optional)
•System Log (optional)
Log screens usually contain more data than the LCD display area
can show at one time. In order to view the entire set of information
the operator uses the function keys. For the specific working procedure of log screens please refer to the log screen section in Chapter 2.

Standard Screw Compressor - RWB Series
Logging Functions Technical Overview
The following sections will discuss the overall function of each of the five standard logs as well
as the optional KW and System Logs.
Operations Log
The Operations Log displays a list of the system operating conditions for the last hour at
30-second intervals and has a limit of 255 recorded data entries. An extra entry is made
to the Operations Log when special events occur, such as alarms, failures or system
reset. When an alarm, failure, or OEM failure occurs a special indicator is also placed
next to the logged parameter causing the problem. Typically the data recorded in this log
will be the analog inputs, system state variables and alarm information. However, data
recorded in this log will vary depending on the system's configuration.
Trend Log
The format of the Trend Log is identical to the operations log. The Trend Log allows the
user to define the recording interval (Default 15 minutes) and has a limit of 255 recorded
data entries. A special entry is made to the Trend Log when certain events occur similar
to the Operations Log. Indicators and highlighting are used to identify parameters causing alarms or failures as in the Operations Log.
Alarm Log
The Alarm Log is a record of the last 100 system alarms. When an alarm first occurs an
alarm entry is made in the log. The process is repeated until the maximum of 100 entries
is reached. Alarms previously logged are then replaced by more recent alarms detected.
Failure Log
The Failure Log is a record of the last 100 failures. When a failure first occurs a failure
entry is made in the log. The process is repeated until the maximum of 100 entries is
reached. Failures previously logged are then replaced by more recent failures detected.
User Log
The User Log is a record of the last 50 users who logged on to the system. An entry is
made into this log when a user logs on to the system. The process is repeated until the
maximum of 50 entries is reached. Users previously logged on are then replaced by users
who have more recently logged on.

Chapter 4: Logging Functions Technical Overview
KW Log (Optional)
The KW Log is an optional daily log included when the KW Monitoring option is included in
the system. It is used to record the periodic totals for Demand KW, Peak Demand, and
Daily, Weekly, Monthly and Yearly usage. KW Log entries are made at midnight each day.
The KW Demand totals are reset as appropriate. The Daily KW is reset each day, the
Weekly KW is reset at the beginning of each week on Sunday morning, the Monthly KW is
reset when the month changes and the Yearly KW resets when the year changes.
System Log (Optional)
The System Log can only be utilized for a system whose Master panel is configured for
communication with an M&M Refrigeration, Inc. PC Monitor™ program. When this option
is active, the System Log will track and accumulate all system data such as analog, discrete, alarm and some status information. This information is held by the Master panel
until a scheduled or user initiated download occurs. At that time, all system information
held by the Master is downloaded to the PC Monitor.
The PC Monitor program must have the Reports or Graph Plotting options in order to utilize
the System Log information. For more information about using System Log data, please refer
to the M&M Systems PC Monitor User’s Manual.

Operations and Trend Logs
The Operations and Trend Logs typically store the same parameters. The only difference
is the time interval at which entries are made. The logs will also indicate which parameters have caused an alarm or failure by placing an indicator next to the responsible parameter. The following table shows the indicators used for each of the system alarm or failure
states.

NOTE: The Operations and Trend Logs on compressors only accumulate data when the compressor
is running. However, alarm and failures will still be logged when the compressor is stopped.
The following is an example of the first page of the Operations Log. This particular log has
3 different pages to display all the data.
