Daikin VRV – Explanations on Main Functional Control

Cooling Operation

Compressor capacity control Constant evaporation temperature (Te) control (Basic target value: R22 = 5.5°C, R407C = 7.5°C, R410A = 6°C *Compensation is applied)
Indoor electronic expansion valve control Constant superheated degree (SH = Tg – Tl) control (Basically compensation of 5°C is required. As to R407C unit, temperature gradient compensation is applied.)
High pressure stepping down control As rising of the high pressure, decreased the compressor capacity.
High pressure protection control Forcedly thermostat-off with limitation on retrying
Low pressure stepping down control Low pressure stepping down control is not made. (Capacity is decreased by normal control of compressor.)
Low pressure protection control Hot gas bypass is on. ? Forcedly thermostat-off with limitation on retrying
Low outdoor temperature cooling control As lowering of the high pressure, outdoor fan is controlled. (fan-tap drops).
Cooling overload control Instruction of forcedly opening degree is given to indoor electronic expansion valve. (Disregard of superheated degree control, even opening degree)
Discharge pipe temperature control Based on discharging pipe temperature Td and discharging superheated degree DSH = Td – Tc, Injection is on. ? Compressor capacity is lowered.? Forcedly thermostat off with limitation on retrying
Oil return control Based on cumulative operation time, oil return operation should be carried out periodically. (According to the state of operation, cumulative operation time may be compensated.)

Heating Operation

Compressor capacity control Constant condensing temperature (Tc) control (Basic target value: R22 = 46°C, R407C = 48°C, R410A = 46°C *Compensation is applied)
Outdoor motorized valve control Constant superheated degree (SH = Ts – Te) control (Basic 5 deg. compensation is applied.)
Indoor motorized valve control Constant subcooled degree (SC = Tc – Tl) control (Basic compensation of 5 deg is applied.)
High pressure stepping down control (= Heating overload control) Compressor capacity control ? Outdoor electronic expansion valve control (Disregard of superheated degree control) and Outdoor fan control (Fan tap is lowered.)
High pressure protection control Forcedly thermostat-off with limitation on retrying
Low pressure stepping down control As lowering of the low pressure decreases the compressor capacity.
Low pressure protection control Hot gas bypass is on. ? Forcedly thermostat-off with limitation on retrying
Defrost control Based on lowered Tb, defrosting operation is carried out. (Compensation based on Ta).
Discharge pipe temperature control Based on discharging pipe temperature Td and discharging superheated degree DSH = Td – Tc, Injection is on. ? Compressor capacity is lowered ? Forcedly thermostat-off with limitation on retrying
Oil return control Based on cumulative operation time, oil return operation should be carried out periodically. (According to the state of operation, cumulative operation time may be compensated.)
