OIL COOLER (VFD TYPE) SETPOINTS
• Start Oil Cooler Above: Defi nes the temperature the
oil cooler fans will come on at minimum speed.
• Target Oil Cooler Outlet Temperature: Defi nes the de-
sired temperature of oil at the outlet of the oil cooler.
The oil cooler fan speed will adjust to maintain this
temperature.
• Deadband: Range above and below setpoint where
the controller will not make adjustments to fan speed.
• PID Tuning: PID Calculations displayed to aid in tun-
ing the PID loop.
• Loop Update Time: Defi nes the PID controller loop
time. The PID calculation will update every cycle of
the loop update timer.
• Proportional Gain (Kp): Defi nes the Proportional
Constant of the PID calculation.
• Integral Gain (Ki): Defi nes the Integral Constant of
the PID calculation.
• Derivative Gain (Kd): Defi nes the Derivative Constant
of the PID Calculation.
• Minimum Speed: Defi nes the minimum oil cooler fan
speed.
• Plenum Heater ON Temp: Defi nes the oil cooler out-
let temperature at which the oil cooler plenum heater
turns ON (if used).
• Plenum Heater OFF Temp: Defi nes the oil cooler out-
let temperature at which the oil cooler plenum heater
turns OFF (if used).
• Oil Cooler Fan VFD Force: Allows the user to manu-
ally force the oil cooler fan(s) to a settable speed.
Activating the Oil Cooler Fan VFD Force pushbutton
will command the oil cooler fan(s) to go to the set
speed, and will override calculations from the PID
Controller.
