2. SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE DESCRIPTION

2.1

System Overview
There are 7 UG stations; CKPE, KRMT, BRCS, CBPK, VSWA, VDSA and KGWA. Each
station has two Local Sequential Controllers (PLC) controlling the Environment control
system (ECS).The local control system is realized by employing Programmable Logic
Controller (PLC). Each station has two PLCs operating in Active/Standby mode.The Local
control system is normally monitored and controlled by Operation command center (OCC).

2.2

Environmental Control System

The Environment Control System (ECS) is the control system designed to monitor and
control environment factors such as temperature and humidity, in order to maintain an
acceptable environment for Metro patrons, employees and equipment in the station. It also
consists of the smoke and gas extraction system, which will operate under fire alarm
conditions.
BMS interfaces with E&M systems namely Fire, Pump and Electrical Systems to provide
monitoring and control.
The PLC is the low-end intelligent system responsible for the monitoring and controlling the
station equipment such as Chillers, AHUs, FCUs, and intake and exhaust fans.
The Motor Control Center (MCC) is the power source for the station fans, dampers and airconditioning units. The PLC can control fans via the MCC. This is achieved by energizing a
relay, which is mounted in the MCC, to connect or disconnect power to the equipment.
The room temperature sensors (RTS) are used for sensing the temperature and are
monitored by the PLC.
The Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) and Central Inert Gas Panel (CIGP) are used for
interfacing the station fire system and inert gas system respectively with ECS. When
activated the FACP sends signals indicating Fire Alarm and inert gas alarm to PLC.

2.3

Local Sequential Controller

The Environmental Control System (ECS) is controlled by 1 set of Programmable Logic
Controller (PLC), which is located in ECS Room (west). The PLC has two Mitsubishi PLCs
to increase the reliability of the system. If the active PLC fails, the control shall be switched
over to the standby PLC.
The Main PLC contains the following major components:
i)

supply module, CPU, Melsecnet Net - H Module and System Control Modules. The CPUs are
connected through a Tracking cable. If the primary CPU fails the data will be shared through the
tracking cable and the Secondary CPU will take over the operation.
The CPU is the highest performance CPU specially designed for Redundant Process Control
operations for large systems. The basic specifications of the Q25RPH CPU and the salient features
are listed below.
CPU Specifications
Control Method: Store Program, Repeated Operation
I/O Control Method: Refresh
Program Language: Structure Text, Ladder, and SFC
Max I/O Capacity
: 4096 Local I/O (8192 including remote)
Program Size
: 252 K Steps, 124 Modules
Real Time Clock
: Year, Month, Day, Hour, Minute, Second, Day of the week
The basic features of the system are as follows:
Hot Standby Operation
The Dual CPU provides for Hot Standby operations of PLCs. When the active CPU is in normal
condition, active CPU controls all I/O Modules. In the mean time, the standby CPU does not
execute its program but copies internal device data of the active CPU. As soon as the active CPU
becomes abnormal, the stand-by CPU starts operations based on the latest copied data from the
active CPU.
Data Tracking Operation
In order to resume operation, some or all area of internal device memory is copied to the standby
CPU from the active CPU. This data tracking function copies up to a 48K word of data for every
scan or any larger data for multiple scans. When switch over occurs, the stand by CPU resumes
program execution based on the last data guaranteeing no loss of data.
Program Tracking
Programs loaded into each CPU have to be exactly the same. When a program is to be down
loaded, it has to be done for both CPUs. However, any program revision to the main during on-line
operation is automatically copied to the standby.
Control Switch Over
Control Switch over of the system occurs if any of the following faults are detected.

Module detects any fault on CPU, Power Supply

Network Module is disconnected from communication

Switchover Time

Approximately 300 milliseconds for CPU, Power or Network Module Failure.

Approximately 300 milliseconds for Network Cable Disconnection.

MELSECNET/H
There are 2 types of network in the ECS System. One is the remote I/O communications network,
which connects the PLC main rack to its remote I/O stations.
The communications take place over the Dual Fiber Optic Loop System. This mode offers the better
cable redundancy. Under normal operation only one loop, known as the forward loop is in operation.
In case of a break the communication switches to the second loop called the reverse loop. The

There are a total of 3 WCC sets which comprises of:

a) 4 units of Condenser Water Pumps (CWP1-4) Fixed Speed , 3W+1S
b) 4 units of Chilled Water Pumps (CHP1-4) Fixed Speed , 3W+1S
c) 3 units of Chillers (WCC1-3)
d) Cooling Tower Segment consists of 3 units of above ground Cooling Towers (CLT1-3). Each
cooling tower fan speed is controlling by VSD.
PLC is responsible for the overall operation of the chiller plant. The time schedule for the starting
and stopping of the chiller plant can be changed from LCP/PMT as well as OCC. The Chiller plant
equipment can be started or stopped as group or individually from LCP

7.1 Control Features

Chiller Daytime Operation:
The total cooling load demand (KW) is calculated by the system based on the temperature
differential of the chilled water supply and return header with the system return header flow rate.
KW = 4.2 * Flow rate * (Return header temperature Supply header temperature).
The chilled water supply and return header water temperature and building heat load will determine
the number of chillers to run. Typically, the system designated as lead chiller system
(CLT, CWP, CHP, WCC) will be in operation. If the building load exceed the duty chiller capacity with
a time delay of 15 minutes (based on the average value of 6 continuous sample readings at 3
minutes interval), or chilled water header temperature is greater than Cut in Set point 1 then the lag
chiller system (CLT, CWP, CHP, WCC) will be turned on to cool down the building. If the building
load exceed the duty and lag chiller capacity with a time delay of 15 minutes (based on the average
value of 6 continuous sample readings at 3 minutes interval), or chilled water header temperature is
greater than Cut in Set point 2 which is considered as Super Peak load, one small capacity chiller
alone will be turned on to cool down the building.
If lead or lag chiller equipment is tripped the corresponding standby chiller equipment will run.
Once the calculated building load is less than Cutout Set point 1 which is lesser than Super Peak
load for 15 minutes then the small capacity chiller will be shutdown from operation.
If the calculated building load is less than Cutout Set point 2 with two chiller sets running for 15
minutes, then lag chiller will be shutdown and during this condition only the Lead chiller will be
running.
The Changeover from Day time to Night time Operation will be as follows:
a) Night time Chiller Start Time Schedule ON
b) Start the Lead Night Chiller Set (CLT, CWP, CHP, WCC)
c) After successfully running the Night time Lead Chiller set shutdown the Day time Chillers
from Operation.
d) Night time Chiller will follow the Heat load to cut in / cut out required chiller sets to satisfy the
demand.
Chiller Nighttime Operation:
KW = 4.2 * Flow rate * (Return header temperature Supply header temperature).
The chilled water supply and return header water temperature and building heat load will determine
the number of chillers to run. Typically, the system designated as lead chiller system (CHP, ACC)

will be in operation. If the building load exceed the duty chiller capacity with a time delay of 15
minutes (based on the average value of 6 continuous sample readings at 3 minutes interval), or
chilled water header temperature is greater than Nighttime Cut in Set point then the
Lag / Standby chiller system (CHP, ACC) will be turned on to cool down the building.
If lead equipment is tripped the corresponding standby chiller equipment will run.
Once the building load is less than Nighttime Cutout Set point for 15 minutes then Lag / Standby
chiller system (CHP, ACC) will be shutdown.
The Changeover from Night time to Day time Operation will be as follows:
a) Day time Chiller Start Time Schedule ON
b) Start the Lead Day time Chiller Set CHP, ACC)
c) After successfully running the Day time Lead Chiller set shutdown the Night time Chillers
from Operation.
d) Day time Chiller Set will follow the Heat load to cut in / cut out required chiller sets to satisfy
the demand.
Note: The Day time Start Time Schedule, the night time chillers start Time Schedule, the Cutin and Cut-out Set points for the Day time and Night time chillers are user configurable
through PMT / LCP.
Chiller system is controlled by Matrix logic where CLT, WCC, CHP and CWP equipment with
their associated valves form CLT, WCC, CHP and CWP sets. This gives the flexibility to
control each set/section of the chiller system separately. Control logic will make sure equal
numbers of equipment are running in each set.
Controls of the CHWS and CWR valves are interlocked with WCC units. Also control of CRV
and CSV valves are interlocked with CLT units.
Duty/standby of equipment and the duty cycle of rotation are user configurable. User can
change duty/standby cycle and also input the numbers of days for rotations. WCC Duty
cycle table is

If duty WCC or any of its associated valves fails, then only a standby WCC with its
associated valve will take over. CLT, CHP and CWP sets will not be affected by this WCC
duty/standby takeover. Similarly, if duty CLT or its associated valve fails then standby CLT
takeover the operation without affecting existing running system. Likewise if duty CHP/CWP
fails then standby CHP/CWP will take over the operation.
Chiller system will be shutdown in case if all the AHUs and FCUs are off.

The Start-up and Shutdown sequence delays can be adjusted upon the Chiller Manufacturers
advice. When Duty cycle is changed, the logic will follow the Chiller Start-up Sequence to cut in the
new duty equipment in order. Once the new Duty equipment is cut in, the previous Duty equipment
will be cut out following Chiller Shutdown Sequence order.
