nomenclature beginning with -ADx (e.g. 4DKNF63KL-
TSK-AD0) Demand Cooling capability is built in.
4D and 6D Unloading with Demand Cooling
Demand Cooling protection is applicable with
compressors using conventional blocked suction
unloading. Earlier application guidelines required
that liquid injection only occur when the compressor
is in its fully loaded state. This was to avoid fl ooding
the compressor with saturated liquid. After further
evaluation, Emerson engineering has determined
that the Copeland Discus compressor will still fl ash
the injected liquid refrigerant when the compressor is
unloaded should the discharge temperatures govern
the need for added cooling. The Demand Cooling
module will only inject liquid when required. When the
temperature decreases to an acceptable level, the
module will stop injecting.
3D Copeland Discus Digital with Demand Cooling
Demand Cooling can be used with 3D Copeland
Discus Digital compressors without adding extra
unloader control circuitry. The Demand Cooling
temperature sensing probe must be installed to replace
the temperature sensing probe that is provided with
the Digital Compressor Controller (IDCM). The T1 to
T2 connection on the Digital Compressor Controller
should be jumpered with a 5 kOhm 1 Watt resistor.
This allows the Demand Cooling module to protect
against high discharge temperatures and inject liquid
when needed.
Performance Adjustment Factors
Performance values for R-407A, R-407C, R-407F,
R-448A and R-449A are not provided in this bulletin. For
actual performance values refer to Product Selection
Software (PSS) or the Online Product Information (OPI)
at EmersonClimate.com.
Since compressor discharge temperature depends
strongly on the return gas temperature, the amount
of injection and its effect on evaporator capacity and
mass flow will vary somewhat with return gas
temperature. The approximate effects of compressor
return gas temperature on evaporator capacity and
mass fl ow are calculated in the current version of
Copeland Product Selection Software (PSS).
Demand Cooling Specifi cations
Demand Cooling is designed to operate and
protect the compressor within the evaporating and
condensing envelope identifi ed in Figure 2. Operating
setpoints and control actions are listed in Table 1.
