3.1.6 Reversible chiller/
heat pump and external heating
The heating or cooling capacity of the supply air is controlled via an IQlogic+ module (extra regulation sequence
function, see separate instructions for the TBIQ IQlogic+
module) preset for heating and cooling (0-10 V). The
function can be activated in the hand-held terminal of the
GOLD air handling unit (see the Operation and Maintenance Instructions for the GOLD).
The function controls external heating (waterborne or
electric) via the GOLD unit’s ordinary output for heating (0-10 V). The air heater for heated water has a frost
monitor function and is automatically activated when it is
connected.
Communication with the reversible chiller/heat pump
can be activated under Functions in the hand-held micro
terminal of the GOLD unit. See Section 5.
Cooling
If temperature sensor BT1 calls for cooling, the function
transmits a start signal for cooling and a refrigerant setpoint (12°C*) to the reversible chiller/heat pump via Modbus.
If the temperature by temperature sensor BT50 is lower
than the temperature by temperature sensor BT30**, the
function allows valve MF1 to regulate the flow.
If the temperature by temperature sensor BT50 is higher
than the temperature by temperature sensor BT30**, the
function does not allow valve MF1 to regulate the flow
(forces it to close).
Optimisation function active:
To ensure the best functionality when the optimisation
function is activated, the value for cooling diff. (2 K*)
should be set to the same value as that set in the reversible
chiller/heat pump. See Section 5.
If the temperature by temperature sensor BT40 (reference
water) is within 2K* from the refrigerant temperature
setpoint and if it has been so during a continuous period
of more than 60 seconds* the optimisation function is
allowed.
If the optimisation function is allowed and valve MF1 is
fully open (100%*) the controller decreases the refrigerant temperature setpoint at a rate of 0.3K/minute*.
If the optimisation function is allowed and valve MF1 is
open less than 80%*, the controller increases the refrigerant temperature setpoint at a rate of 0.6K/minute*.
Heating
If temperature sensor BT1 calls for heating, the function
transmits a start signal for heating and a heating medium
setpoint (40°C*) to the reversible chiller/heat pump via
Modbus.
If the temperature by temperature sensor BT50 is higher
than the temperature by temperature sensor BT30**, the
function allows valve MF1 to regulate the flow.

Swegon chiller/heat pump
A pump and accumulator tank can be
added and, depending on the size of the
system, can be located inside or outside
the chiller/heat pump.
The external air heater can be
of water-coil or electric type.
If the temperature by temperature sensor BT50 is lower
than the temperature by temperature sensor BT30**, the
function does not allow valve MF1 to regulate the flow
(forces it to close).
Optimisation function active:
Optimisation is not carried out if temperature regulation is
selected for extract air regulation.
To ensure the best functionality when the optimisation
function is activated, the heating diff. value (3 K*) should
be set to the same value as that set in the reversible chiller/
heat pump. See Section 5.
If the temperature by temperature sensor BT40 (reference
water) is within 3K* from the heating medium temperature setpoint and if it has been so during a continuous
period of more than 60 seconds* the optimisation function is allowed.
If the optimisation function is allowed and valve MF1 is
fully open (100%*) the controller increases the heating
medium temperature setpoint at a rate of 0.3K/minute*.
If the optimisation function is allowed and valve MF1 is
open less than 80%*, the controller decreases the heating
medium temperature setpoint at a rate of 0.6K/minute*.
* Factory setting. The value can be changed.
