User manual for MCS MAGNUM CHILLER Chiller Plant Manager, covering operation, configuration, and control logic for chiller and pump management.
This manual explains how to operate and configure the MCS MAGNUM CHILLER Chiller Plant Manager (CPM), a system designed to manage multiple chiller packages and pumps. It details control algorithms, setpoints, states, and communication protocols over RS485. The CPM controls pumps to maintain water flow and stages chillers to meet cooling demands. It supports up to 15 pumps, 5 pump groups, and 16 cooling stages. Individual MCS-MAGNUM controllers manage chiller safeties and communicate with the CPM via RS485. If communication fails, the MAGNUMs operate independently.
