Ice Build Control — The ice build control option automatically<br />

sets the CONTROL POINT of the chiller to a temperature<br />

that allows ice building for thermal storage.<br />

NOTE: For ice build control to operate properly, the PIC II<br />

must be in CCN mode.<br />

NOTE: See Fig. 17 <strong>and</strong> 18 for more information on ice buildrelated<br />

menus.<br />

The PIC II can be configured for ice build operation.<br />

From the SERVICE menu, access the EQUIPMENT<br />

SERVICE table. From there, select the OPTIONS screen<br />

to enable or disable the ICE BUILD OPTION. See<br />

Table 2, Example 17.<br />

The ICE BUILD SETPOINT can be configured from the<br />

SETPOINT display, which is accessed from the PIC II<br />

main menu. See Table 2, Example 9.<br />

The ice build schedule can be viewed or modified from<br />

the SCHEDULE table. From this table, select the ice<br />

build schedule (OCCPC02S) screen. See Fig. 19 <strong>and</strong> the<br />

section on Time Schedule <strong>Operation</strong>, page 20, for more<br />

information on modifying chiller schedules.<br />

The ice build time schedule defines the period(s) during<br />

which ice build is active if the ice build option is enabled. If the<br />

ice build time schedule overlaps other schedules, the ice build<br />

time schedule takes priority. During the ice build period, the<br />

CONTROL POINT is set to the ICE BUILD SETPOINT for<br />

temperature control. The ICE BUILD RECYCLE <strong>and</strong> ICE<br />

BUILD TERMINATION parameters, accessed from the<br />

OPTIONS screen, allow the chiller operator to recycle or terminate<br />

the ice build cycle. The ice build cycle can be configured<br />

to terminate if:<br />

the ENTERING CHILLED WATER temperature is less<br />

than the ICE BUILD SETPOINT. In this case, the operator<br />

sets the ICE BUILD TERMINATION parameter to 0<br />

on the OPTIONS screen.<br />

the REMOTE CONTACT inputs from an ice level indicator<br />

are opened. In this case, the operator sets the ICE<br />

BUILD TERMINATION parameter to 1 on the OPTIONS<br />

screen.<br />

the chilled water temperature is less than the ice build set<br />

point <strong>and</strong> the remote contact inputs from an ice level<br />

indicator are open. In this case, the operator sets the ICE<br />

BUILD TERMINATION parameter to 2 on the OPTIONS<br />

screen.<br />

the end of the ice build time schedule has been reached.<br />

ICE BUILD INITIATION — The ice build time schedule<br />

(OCCPC02S) is the means for activating the ice build option.<br />

The ice build option is enabled if:<br />

a day of the week <strong>and</strong> a time period on the ice build time<br />

schedule are enabled. The SCHEDULE screen shows an<br />

X in the day field <strong>and</strong> ON/OFF times are designated for<br />

the day(s),<br />

<strong>and</strong> the ICE BUILD OPTION is enabled.<br />

The following events take place (unless overridden by a<br />

higher authority CCN device).<br />

CHILLER START/STOP is forced to START.<br />

The CONTROL POINT is forced to the ICE BUILD SET-<br />

POINT.<br />

Any force (Auto) is removed from the ACTIVE<br />

DEMAND LIMIT.<br />

NOTE: A parameter’s value can be forced, that is, the value<br />

can be manually changed at the CVC/ICVC by an operator,<br />

changed from another CCN device, or changed by other algorithms<br />

in the PIC II control system.<br />

NOTE: The Ice Build steps do not occur if the chiller is configured<br />

<strong>and</strong> operating as a lag or st<strong>and</strong>by chiller for lead/lag operation<br />

<strong>and</strong> is actively being controlled by a lead chiller. The lead<br />

chiller communicates the ICE BUILD SET POINT, the desired<br />

CHILLER START/STOP state, <strong>and</strong> the ACTIVE DEMAND<br />

43<br />

LIMIT to the lag or st<strong>and</strong>by chiller as required for ice build, if<br />

configured to do so.<br />

START-UP/RECYCLE OPERATION — If the chiller is not<br />

running when ice build activates, the PIC II checks the following<br />

conditions, based on the ICE BUILD TERMINATION<br />

value, to avoid starting the compressor unnecessarily:<br />

if ICE BUILD TERMINATION is set to the TEMP option<br />

<strong>and</strong> the ENTERING CHILLED WATER temperature is<br />

less than or equal to the ICE BUILD SETPOINT;<br />

if ICE BUILD TERMINATION is set to the CONTACTS<br />

option <strong>and</strong> the remote contacts are open;<br />

if the ICE BUILD TERMINATION is set to the BOTH<br />

(temperature <strong>and</strong> contacts) option <strong>and</strong> the ENTERING<br />

CHILLED WATER temperature is less than or equal to<br />

the ICE BUILD SETPOINT <strong>and</strong> the remote contacts are<br />

open.<br />

The ICE BUILD RECYCLE on the OPTIONS screen determines<br />

whether or not the chiller will go into an ice build RE-<br />

CYCLE mode.<br />

If the ICE BUILD RECYCLE is set to DSABLE (disable),<br />

the PIC II reverts to normal temperature control<br />

when the ice build function terminates.<br />

If the ICE BUILD RECYCLE is set to ENABLE, the PIC<br />

II goes into an ICE BUILD RECYCLE mode <strong>and</strong> the<br />

chilled water pump relay remains energized to keep the<br />

chilled water flowing when the ice build function terminates.<br />

If the temperature of the ENTERING CHILLED<br />

WATER increases above the ICE BUILD SETPOINT plus<br />

the RECYCLE RESTART DELTA T value, the compressor<br />

restarts <strong>and</strong> controls the chilled water/brine temperature<br />

to the ICE BUILD SETPOINT.<br />

TEMPERATURE CONTROL DURING ICE BUILD —<br />

During ice build, the capacity control algorithm shall use the<br />

CONTROL POINT minus 5 F (–2.8 C) for control of the<br />

LEAVING CHILLED WATER temperature. (See Table 2, example<br />

10, the CAPACITY CONTROL parameter on the CA-<br />

PACITY screen.) The ECW CONTROL OPTION <strong>and</strong> any temperature<br />

reset option shall be ignored, if enabled, during ice<br />

build. The AUTO DEMAND LIMIT INPUT shall also be<br />

ignored if enabled during ice build.<br />

ECW CONTROL OPTION <strong>and</strong> any temperature reset<br />

options (configured on TEMP_CTL screen).<br />

20 mA DEMAND LIMIT OPT (configured on<br />

RAMP_DEM screen).<br />

TERMINATION OF ICE BUILD — The ice build function<br />

terminates under the following conditions:<br />

1. Time Schedule — When the current time on the ice build<br />

time schedule (OCCPC02S) is not set as an ice build time<br />

period.<br />

2. Entering Chilled Water Temperature — Compressor<br />

operation terminates, based on temperature, if the ICE<br />

BUILD TERMINATION parameter is set to 0 (TEMP),<br />

the ENTERING CHILLED WATER temperature is less<br />

than the ICE BUILD SETPOINT, <strong>and</strong> the ICE BUILD<br />

RECYCLE is set to DSABLE. If the ICE BUILD RECY-<br />

CLE OPTION is set to ENABLE, a recycle shutdown occurs<br />

<strong>and</strong> recycle start-up depends on the LEAVING<br />

CHILLED WATER temperature being greater than the<br />

water/brine CONTROL POINT plus the RESTART<br />

DELTA T temperature.<br />

3. Remote Contacts/Ice Level Input — Compressor operation<br />

terminates when the ICE BUILD TERMINATION<br />

parameter is set to 1 (CONTACTS) <strong>and</strong> the remote contacts<br />

are open <strong>and</strong> the ICE BUILD RECYCLE is set to<br />

DSABLE (0). In this case, the contacts provide ice level<br />

termination control. The contacts are used to stop the ice<br />

build function when a time period on the ice build schedule<br />

(OCCPC02S) is set for ice build operation. The remote<br />

contacts can still be opened <strong>and</strong> closed to start <strong>and</strong>
