This document provides a sample sequence of operations for controlling a primary/secondary chilled water circuit using a General Purpose Electronic Controller (GPEC). It involves modulating a three-way mixing valve to maintain supply water temperature based on resetting the setpoint using a space temperature sensor. During occupied hours, the primary pump runs when outside air is above 60°F and the secondary pump provides chilled water to zones. During unoccupied hours, the bypass valve isolates the primary circuit when zones are off.

GPEC Primary / Secondary Chilled Water Circuit


Primary / Secondary Chilled Water Circuit - Sequence of Operations

Note: The following is a sample of a typical sequence of operation that may be adapted for a
particular project. This is provided as a suggestion on how to write a sequence of operation for a
specific project. The GPEC includes the ability for the operator to select some different
sequences. Consult your Carrier representative if the sample sequence requires alterations.

4.12 Primary / Secondary Chilled Water Circuit - Sequence of Operations

A. Description:
Primary Chilled Water Pump, Secondary Pump Control and, Secondary Loop Temperature Reset via
Space Temperature and Three-way Mixing Valve.

B. General:
The chilled water system shall be controlled and monitored by a series (as needed) of EMS
compatible, programmable logic, General Purpose Electronic Controllers (GPEC).

1. Required Algorithms and Schedules:


The following algorithms and schedules are required for typical control of a chilled water pump and
differential bypass control.

Algorithms Schedules
AO — Reset Time Schedule
DO — Permissive Interlock Setpoint Schedules (temperature)
DO — Timeclock
DO — Analog Comparison

2. Occupancy Status:
The occupancy status is determined by the Time Schedule, and may be affected by the DO
Permissive Interlock algorithm.

C. Sequence of Operation During Occupied Hours:


The DO—Analog Comparison algorithm enables the primary circuit's pump whenever the outside air
temperature is above 60°F. The DO—Timeclock algorithm will switch the operation of the secondary
chilled water circuit from an unoccupied to an occupied mode and start its zone pump. If the primary
pump is disabled, the DO—Permissive Interlock algorithm will override the Time Schedule and
disable the zone pump.

The AO—Reset algorithm will modulate the three-way mixing valve to maintain a supply water
temperature. The supply water setpoint will be inversely reset based on a space temperature sensor.

D. Sequence of Operation During Unoccupied Hours:


Whenever the zone pump is off, the bypass valve will be positioned to isolate the primary circuit from
the secondary circuit. This will be accomplished by using the zone pump's status point as a fan status
input for the AO—Reset algorithm.

Whenever the outside air temperature is above 60°F, the DO—Permissive Interlock algorithm will
enable the primary pump.

The DO—Timeclock algorithm will switch the operation of the secondary chilled water circuit from an
occupied to an unoccupied mode. During the unoccupied mode, the secondary pump will be
disabled. If the zone pump must be cycled on during unoccupied periods to maintain the space
temperature, use the DO—Timeclock with Check algorithm.

Whenever the zone pump is off, the bypass valve will be positioned to isolate the primary circuit. This
is accomplished by using the status point of the secondary pump as a status input for the AO—Reset
algorithm.

E. Sensor Selection:
The sensors required for this application are described below.

1. OAT – Outside Air Temperature:


The OAT sensor is required for the DO—Analog Comparison algorithm.
Note: The OAT point may be physically located in another controller and then broadcast or point
relayed to this controller for use in the DO—Analog Comparison algorithm.

2. PMPS1 and PMPS2 – Pump Status:


The status of the pumps is required for the DO—Permissive Interlock and AO—Reset algorithms
to operate correctly. Current type sensors are required. The use of a differential pressure switch
around each pump instead of a current type sensor or paddle flow switch is permissible. The use
of differential pressure sensors or paddle flow switches as status points requires’ the installation
of taps.

3. CHWS – Chilled Water Supply Temperature:


A CHWS well type sensor is required. The CHWS sensor will serve as the sub-master sensor for
the AO—Reset algorithm.

4. SPT – Space Temperature:


The AO-Reset Algorithm uses the space temperature sensor to reset the chilled water setpoint.
The SPT sensor will be located within the controlled space in a place where it will not be
adversely affected by heat sources.
