Control Scheme for Refrig with Screw compressor

Aug 03, 2004 0 Replies

I am looking for help in finding control schemes for a refigeration unit driven by a screw compressor. This is an existing unit with compressor, VFD fans on the condenser, and a product heat exchanger where the target temperature is taken at the process discharge.



The controllable components are the compressor's loading control (0 - 100%), the fan speed, and the water spray pump. The original supplier held the control proprietary and will not disclose the control scheme, they will only provide operating limits and start-up and shutdown sequences.



There are temp and pressure measurements around each piece of equipment but no flow controls.



Thanks for any help.
