Side-By-Side Electronic Bypass/Drive ABB has improved its electronic bypass for the ACH 400 drive, the company says. Built-in enhancements to the side-by-side electronic bypass/drive include run-permissive circuitry. According to the manufacturer, with a start command of any kind, the bypass/drive will signal the damper to open and wait until it receives status confirmation before allowing motor operation. Two modes of fireman’s override circuits make it possible to shift the motor to bypass operation for smoke purge, and/or override both keypad and building automation commands to ensure local drive/motor operation.

KVS Stepper Motor Evaporator Pressure Regulating Valve The screw spindle of this new electrically operated suction modulating control valve is directly driven by a stepper motor. Because the valve needs no gearing, the internal slide can be precisely positioned at any step; a spring-loaded slide delivers high resolution even at low capacity, the company says. The reversible slide was designed to minimize risk of interlock due to thermal expansion of internal parts. Valve opening is opposed by spring pressure, so hysteresis is virtually eliminated, states the company.

Desuperheater/Water Heater The desuperheater/water heater delivers cost-effective energy savings, heating potable water up to 140 degrees F, the company says. The unit is designed for ACR systems ranging from 5 to 200 hp that use reciprocating, scroll, or screw compressors. Installation of a desuperheater into an existing cooling system adds 15% more condenser capacity, resulting in a 5% to 10% reduction of system operating costs, enhanced compressor performance, and prolonged compressor life, the company says. The A/C Series full discharge flow design does not require a heat reclaim valve to increase overall system performance because all refrigerant gas has already been desuperheated, allowing faster recovery times, the company says. The unit also reduces operating costs from smaller refrigerant pressure drop by offering 2 to 5 psi vs. up to 15 psi, the company states.
