CHILLER, BOILER, AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM CONTROL APPLICATIONSPrimary Thermal Units: Thermal production water elements suchas chillers and boilers. Thermal production air elementssuch as air handlers.Rangeability: The ratio of maximum to minimum flow of a valvewithin which the deviation from the inherent flowcharacteristic does not exceed some stated limits.Refrigerant pressure: The pressure difference betweencompressor suction and discharge pressures or thetemperature difference between condensing andevaporating temperatures.Secondary Thermal Units: Thermal consumption water elementssuch as AHU coils. Thermal consumption air elementssuch as VAV boxes.Superheat: The additional heat contained in a vapor at atemperature higher than the saturation (boiling)temperature corresponding to the pressure of the vapor.Surge: A condition where refrigerant reverses flow approximatelyevery two seconds creating excessive noise, vibration,and heat. Surge is caused by insufficient pumpingpressure to meet the rise in pressure from evaporator tocondenser.Symmetrical loading: Diversity in multiple load systems, whereindividual loads operate at the same time and samepercentage loading as the others.Variable speed pumping (VSP): A pumping system where theflow/pressure is varied by changing the pump speed.Diversity factor = 1.SYMBOLSThe following symbols are used in the system schematics following. These symbols denote the nature of the device, such as athermometer for temperature sensing.CONTROLLER, TEMPERATUREFANSENSOR, TEMPERATURELOW LIMITHIGH LIMITPRESSURE CONTROLLER,HIGH LIMIT CUT-OUT,MANUAL RESETMANUAL RESET NOTATION13INSERTION TEMPERATURE SENSOR0.45PRESSURE SENSOR13TEMPERATURE SENSOR,AVERAGINGCOOLING COILNORMALTEMPERATURE CONTROLLER,MANUAL RESET, SAFETY LOW LIMITHEATING COILAUTOMANUAL MULTI-STATECOMMAND (ON-OFF-AUTO)ONSTATUS POINTFILTER63VALUE POINT (% LOAD)74COMMANDABLE VALUEPUMP3-WAY VALVE WITH ACTUATORSOLENOID VALVE2-WAY VALVE WITH ACTUATORSMOKE DETECTOR(NFPA SYMBOL)DAMPER WITH ACTUATORPROPELLER EXHAUST FANM15150296ENGINEERING MANUAL OF AUTOMATIC CONTROL
