Sporlan iSpeedIntelligent InvertersFor Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Systems
Conventional refrigeration and air conditioning systems consist of one or more compressors that are simply staged in an on-and-off manner to approximately meet the refrigeration needs of the system. Although some systems use compressors of differing sizes in an attempt to more closely tailor capacity, even these systems are step-control and can lead to overcooling, rapid compressor cycling, system instability, loss of control and wasted energy.
Sporlan iSpeed Inverter systems overcome these limitations and save up to 40% of the energy used in traditional systems. The Sporlan system is not just an add-on set of hardware, it is a total system solution consisting of hardware, specifically designed and proven software, and guidelines for designing the most efficient system possible. Thousands of field installations and over 10 years of experience have supported the energy savings described. Years of consulting with major compressor manufacturers allow specific recommendations of models for each application.
Software packages include: supermarket rack refrigeration, chillers, glycol coolers, heat pumps, transcritical and subcritical CO
2, drycoolers, condensers and pumps. The iSpeed Inverters can also be
used in conjunction with existing controllers to increase energy efficiency.

Higher Evaporating TemperaturesSporlan iSpeed Inverters provide very stable suction pressures that ensure proper product temperature even at higher suction pressures.
•Energysavingbysteplesscontrol of refrigeration capacity:
- Up to 40% with refrigera-tion installations using a single compressor
- Up to 25% with conven-tional multi-stage com-pressor racks
•Operationatahigherevaporation temperature with the same refrigera-tion capacity
•HigherCOPfactorunderpartial load conditions
A 5°F or 2.5 K raise in suction pressure can yield a 10.2% increase in EER (Energy Effi-ciency Ratio). The steadiness of the suction pressure also allows
the TEV (Thermostatic Expan-sion Valve) or EEV (Electric Expansion Valve) to be run at lower superheats, adding to coil and system efficiency. Table 1
shows representative operating range based on a 3 compressor rack with 50 kW (14.3 tons) total refrigeration capacity.

Energy Savings
Load Matching
Refrigeration and air condi-tioning systems are sized for the largest total load expected under extreme conditions. The compressors and condenser fans are then chosen to meet this maximum capacity need.
However, almost 95% of system run time is at a reduced load,
and fixed speed compressors must be cycled to attempt to meet the load. Since the com-pressors and fans run at fixed speeds, their energy use is high-er than needed to satisfy system requirements. Sporlan iSpeed Inverters with onboard software, efficiently tailor compressor and fan speed to match the
exact load. Since motor current draw is linear to motor speed, reduced speed means reduced energy use.
Figure 1 shows how iSpeed Software enables the system to match capacity better than conventional step control.
Air conditioning systems are designed to provide comfort cooling and humidity control for building occupants and while these are important, slight variations of either are gener-ally acceptable. Sporlan iSpeed Inverters minimize variations in
these systems. Food storage and process cooling have more criti-cal temperature control require-ments. According to ASHRAE, temperature variations of only 2-3°F or 1-2 K is enough to dam-age most products. Variations and lowering of humidity levels
leads to “shrinkage” and further product loss. Sporlan iSpeed Inverters, due to their smooth suction pressure control prevent spoilage and shrinkage. Figure 3 is a graph of an actual installa-tion showing the improvement of suction pressure stability.

Many power utility companies impose higher electrical rates based on “demand” or surge currents. Ordinary fixed speed compressors are started by Direct-on-Line (DOL) or Across the Line wiring. The inrush current can be 5 to 6 times normal running current.
This surge may trigger higher electrical costs and stress the installation and possibly the electrical grid infrastructure. Sporlan iSpeed Inverters smoothly increase starting current and limit the power used to that required by the system at that moment. Electrical costs
are minimized and electrical supplies are not stressed.
Soft starting also reduces stress on the motor winding and prelongs working life.

Selection AssistanceSporlan makes choosing and installing iSpeed Inverters easy by providing selection tables, based on specific compres-sors, from over 14 different manufactures. The tables have been generated from real world experience, manufacturer cooperation and systematic analysis of specific compressor
characteristics. Sporlan can also provide guidance in applying iSpeed Inverters to compres-sors from other manufacturers. Compressors sized and selected to optimize the control “Factor F”* will guarantee the maximum system balance, energy efficien-cy and compressor life. Figure 4 shows that a system with three compressors sized with a high control “Factor F”* can replace four compressors to meet the same maximum load and provide almost infinite variable control down to much lighter loads as well.

Available electronic soft starters for the smooth starting of the fixed-speed compressors:
•Preventionofcurrentandpressure surges on starting
Generally motors have the longest service life if the number of starts and stops is limited. Compressor life is even more compromised by frequent
cycling because of the high torque needed to start, the heat of inrush current, and poor lubrication flow. Sporlan iSpeed Inverter systems not only keep the lead compressor smoothly running as much as possible, but the proprietary software limits cycling of the fixed speed compressors, where fitted. The ability of the Sporlan iSpeed Inverters to safely increase the speed of the compressor adds up to 20% capacity, helping to prevent unnecessary starts of the fixed speed compressors.
The variable speed compressor current is smoothly ramped up to avoid excessive current surges and heating of the windings. Available Sporlan iSpeed Soft Start Kits can add this benefit to the fixed speed compressors as well. Contact Sporlan for more information, sizing and model numbers.
