To secure the overall system against the pressure being exceeded, the specifications of the standard safety regula-
tions and standards (e.g. EN378, ISO5149) must be observed. To monitor the minimum permitted suction pres-
sure, a common low pressure limiter set to a lower pressure level than the suction pressure control is usually suffi-
cient. It only serves as protection against a possible failure or a fault in the system control.

System control
A compound system is controlled either as a function of the suction pressure or of a defined process temperature.
For systems having a relatively high number of evaporators, a suction pressure control adjusted to the demand is
customary. To this end, the manufacturers of regulators offer a wide range of products. The control algorithm
should guarantee at least the following:
• Demand-dependent switch-on and switch-off of individual compressors and their capacity control (finely tuned
mechanical or speed control), as a function of a defined suction pressure with a narrow bandwidth. In doing so,
the design criteria described above should be taken into account ( Selection of compressor and accessory ).
• Securing the max. cycling rate and minimum running time of the compressors. This is possible, for example,
through a time limit from start to start as well as a minimum running time secured by the control algorithm, which
may only be fallen short of during safety cut-outs.
• Automatic change of the lead compressor for uniformly distributed operating hours of the compressors. This en-
sures a balanced load and minimum wear.
• When the lead compressor is switched off in controlled fashion (via the min. suction pressure), you must ensure
that the solenoid valves in the liquid line or the electronic expansion valves can only be activated following a
possible time delay of the lead compressor. This is also true when all compressors are shut down by a safety
device (e.g. high pressure switch-off). This avoids flooding of the evaporators with liquid.
• Adjustment of the suction pressure to demand, for example automatic increase at reduced load
• Reasonable control of the condensing temperature ( Further components of the refrigeration system )
