CONTROL ALGORITHM
Inverter-Y Training 2009
CONTROL ALGORITHM
Frequency Principle
•
•
The compressor is frequency-controlled during normal
operation. The target frequency is set based on
following parameters:
i) Outdoor ambient temperature
ii) Set temperature
iii) Room temperature
When the frequency increases, the rotation speed of
compressor increases resulting in an increased
refrigerant circulation, this lead to higher amount of
heat transfer and vice versa when frequency
decreases.
Inverter-Y Training 2009
CONTROL ALGORITHM
Operating Modes
•
•
The system has 2 operating modes. The mode
selection is done in Inverter (indoor) controls.
The operating modes are:
– Cool
– Fan
Inverter-Y Training 2009
CONTROL ALGORITHM
Function – Cool Mode
•
•
When Tr >= Ts – 1.5°C
- Comp, ID Fan and OD Fan ON
When Tr <= Ts - 2°C
- Comp and OD Fan OFF
- ID Fan remain ON
Tr = Room Temperature
Ts = Set Temperature
Inverter-Y Training 2009
CONTROL ALGORITHM
Function – Cool Mode
•
•
At beginning of cooling operation, compressor
frequency will be increased smoothly to the target
frequency so that the room temperature is reduced.
When set temperature is achieved, operation
frequency will be reduced to stabilize the room
temperature.
Inverter-Y Training 2009
CONTROL ALGORITHM
When will Compressor Stop?
• When cooling load is too small, even with lowest
operation frequency and the room temperature still fall
below compressor cut off point, compressor will stop.
Compressor Capacity

Time
Tr <= Ts - 2°C
Comp will stop
Inverter-Y Training 2009
CONTROL ALGORITHM
Function - Fan Mode
•
•
•
•
Only High, Medium and Low fan speeds are allowed.
When changing cool mode to fan mode, the compressor
will stop and OD fan stops after 30s.
Compressor will only ON if the minimum stop time is > 3
minutes and the user change back to cool mode.
Fan speed will maintain same as during fan mode.
Inverter-Y Training 2009
PROTECTION
Protection Control - Data Communication Error
Between Indoor and Outdoor
•
•
Master by outdoor unit.
Indoor controller board will transmit signal to outdoor
controller board every 0.5s. Outdoor unit will response to
indoor once the valid data is received.

Inverter-Y Training 2009
PROTECTION
Protection Control - Data Communication Error
Between Indoor and Outdoor
•
•
•
If the data communication line between indoor and outdoor
occurs error for 15s continuously, compressor will
stop, OD fan stop after 30s. ID LED blinks error.
If the communication resumes after 15s, error code is clear
and compressor restarts after 3 minutes.
If the communication is not resume after 15s, unit unable to
restart and the error keep blinking.
Inverter-Y Training 2009
PROTECTION
Indoor Coil Frost Prevention
•
•
•
•
Only available in cooling mode.
When the indoor coil temperature < 2°C, the compressor
starts to drop the frequency.
This protection is activated when:
- Indoor coil temperature < 0°C for more than 180s.
Compressor will stop, OD fan stop after 30s and indoor
fan can only run at super low fan speed.
The unit can only be restarted after 3 minutes.
When the indoor coil temperature >13°C, the
compressor frequency will be reset based on the OD
ambient, room and set temperature.

Input Current Control
•
•
•
•
When the input current for running compressor exceeds
I2, running frequency will be reduced by 1 step. If current
still exceeds I2, frequency will be reduced by another 1
step until total current falls between I2 and I3.
This protection is activated when the input current
exceeds I1 for 2 seconds. Compressor will stop and it is
considered total current overload.
The unit can only be restarted after 3 minutes.
If input current <I3, the compressor frequency is reset
based on the OD ambient, set and room temperature.

PROTECTION
Compressor Discharge Temperature Control
Inverter-Y Training 2009
PROTECTION
Compressor Discharge Temperature Control
•
•
•
•
If compressor discharge temperature >102°C, running
frequency will be reduced by 1 step. If compressor
discharge temperature still >102°C, frequency will be
reduced by another 1 step until temperature falls
between 99°C and 90°C.
This protection is activated when the compressor
discharge temperature > 110°C. The compressor will
stop and considered trip.
The unit can only be restarted after 3 minutes.
If the compressor discharge temperature < 90°C, the
compressor frequency will be reset based on the OD
ambient, set and room temperature.

PROTECTION
High Pressure Protection
•
•
•
The compressor frequency is adjusted depend on the
coil temperature.
This protection is activated when the outdoor coil
temperature > 64°C, the compressor stop and OD fan
stop after 30s.
The unit can only be restarted after 3 minutes.
Inverter-Y Training 2009
PROTECTION
IPM error
•
•
Protection on the IPM
IPM error is declared when;
i) Compressor’s motor peak current > 21A OR
ii) IPM temperature >100°C OR
iii) IGBT peak current > 16A.
