    Hi Gary.

    In principle I'm not against auto resets under the right restrictions.
    With the reset restrictions you describe I would be tempted to agree that it would stop a lot of wasted callouts (less overtime ).
    I do not know of a switch like you describe is there a switch or is it somthing you are personaly toying with?

    Cheers taz.

    It is simply an idea I am throwing out here in case the control manufacturers are tuning in. Given today's electronics, perhaps it is time to re-think the oil pressure control... and the high pressure control as well.

    I am not so much concerned with reducing overtime as I am with saving the products.

    Some chillers have something similar. You can set the amount of times an electronic reset of oil, hp or lp. After a half dozen times or so the plant locks that compressor out and you need a password to unlock it.

    If you can't fix it leave it that no one else will:rolleyes:
