1) Be careful to avoid rough handling of the chiller unit. Do not push or pull the unit from anything other than the
base. Block the pushing vehicle away from the unit to prevent damage to the sheet metal cabinet and end frame.
2) It is must use roller or wire rope to transport unit. Dont striking or ring the frangible parts that like as cooper tube,
valve body or control box...etc. Put cushion material between the wire rope and the unit. Arrange spreader bars and
cables to prevent damage to the condenser coils or cabinet (please see next figure).

Remarks: Must place the support frame above the chiler, must pay attention to the personal security and prevent
chillers appearance from being damaged while freighting.
3) It is must to conform the local safety requirement for transport the chiller unit. When handing the unit, ought to
consign someone for command and offer the warning device to keep the safety of human and mechanism.
4) Take sufficient care for transport unit and avert excessive swing and shock to prevent damaging the unit and
injuring human or building.
5) In the first, please carry out the transport plan of unit that the content ought to include moving date, outline dimensions, unit weight, preparatory opening and transport/hang tool. Like as next table.
Table 2-1 Inspect Items for Handling.
Items
Trasnport

Modify Path

Inspect Items
Path

1. Discuss conveyable path (hallway, stair or door...etc.)


2. Discuss hanging path (rooftop, subterranean...etc.)

Unloading

1. Discuss the weight of facilities.


2. Prepare unloading tools.
3. Discuss the temporary area for deposit.

Moving

1. If possible, the large chiller ought to disassemble for delivery and reassemble in the location.
2. If the chiller cant be disassembling, it is necessary to retaining preparatory opening on the wall or floor for transportation or hang.
If necessary, please modify the wall or floor for transportation expendiently.

2.2 Location
1) Chiller units can be mounted on a roof or ground level. Set chiller units on a solid and level foundation. For roof
mounted applications, install the unit on a steel channel or I beam frame to support the unit above the roof. For
ground level applications, install the unit on a substantial base that will not settle.
2) Be sure the foundation is level (within 12 mm over its length and width). On ground level applications protect the
unit against vandalism by using the optional lower wire mesh guards or by erecting a screen fence. The fence must

allow free flow of air to the condenser coil for proper unit.
3) The flow of air to and from the condenser coils must not be limited. Restricting air flow or allowing air recirculation
will result in a decrease in unit performance and efficiency. There must be no obstruction above the unit that would
deflect discharge air downward where it could be recirculated back to the inlet of the condenser coil.
4) The condenser fans are propeller type and will not operate with ductwork on the fan outlet. Install the unit with
enough side clearance for air entrance to the coil and for servicing. Provide service access to the evaporator, compressors, electrical control panel and piping components.
5) Each end of the unit must be accessible after installation for periodic service. The condenser fan and motors can
be removed from the top of the unit.
6)

A. Unit must not be installed in a pit or enclosure that is deeper or taller than the height of the unit unless extra
clearance is provided per not 4.
B. Minimum clearance on each side is 2.5m when installed in a pit no deeper than the unit height.
C. Minimum side clearance to a side wall or building taller than the unit height is 2.5m provided no solid wall above
2m is closer than 4m to the opposite side of the unit.
D. The evaporator can be removed from the side of the unit.
E. Do not mount electrical conduits, etc, above the side rail on either side if the unit. f. There must be no obstruction
of the fan discharge.

3.6 Re-Start Frequency

The re-start frequency of this chiller is limited.


Circulating time per cycle (Stop-Stop or Start-Stop): over 10 minutes, stop time: 5 minutes. The chilled water temperature sensor (fixed temperature difference is 2C) of chiller unit will conform to above necessary, and then the
chilled water quantity of circulating piping must maintain the suggested value that listed in the next table.
Minimum water quantity (L)
= Normal chiller flow-rate (LPM)x 5 (min)
Poor water quantity supplied and low loading will cause start/stop frequently, and then the compressor reduces its
working day. Therefore, we ought to calculate the volume of chiller water in circulating system by the diameter and
length of piping during design work. It is necessary to add buffer tank on the piping system to avoid frequent start/
stop damage compressors if water quantity (water volume of chilled water piping system) less than the suggested
value that listed in the above table.

4. Notice For Chiller Unit Operation


4.1 General
1. Conform the limited operation condition that describe in section 3 is necesary, and care the start/stop frequency
of compressor especially.
2. If any operating value is installed on the liquid line, it is must full open during chiller unit running.
3. Please inspect the protective device periodically. The suggest period is listed in the next table.
Pressure gauge

Least one per year

Full chiller models

Pressure switch

The chiller unit must be located on the open circumstance where if refrigerant leaking will not cause worker
hard breathing or asphyxiation during maintenance.
4. Ground wiring is necessary for chiller unit.

5. Chiller unit ought to interlock control with chilled water pump. When the water pump running, then circulating
water will actuate the flow switch to start chiller unit.

4.2 Notice Items For Running Beginning


Please dont operating under overload condition in the running beginning because the operating condition of early
months will affect the working days of compressor. All valves (if possible) on the liquid line must be full opened
during running test.
1. Running the chiller unit under steady condition. Care to keep the stability of high/low pressure and system temperature. Frequent start/stop operating is the main reason of compressor coil burns down.
2. Inspect and then re-start the compressor after 5 minutes if it stops abnormally.
3. The outlet temperature of chiller water ought to keep over normal value -4C.
4. Inspect water quality and treat it periodically.
5. Please repair it if piping leaking.
6. Inspect fouling condition and clean it. Replace circulating water by fresh water after one week and one month in
the running beginning.

4.3 Notice Items For Everyday Running


1. Mechanical items
A) Inspect the vibration and noise of any component.
B) Check oil leaking or not.
C) Check oil level of screw compressor is normal or not.
D) Inspect the value of high/low pressure gauge that on the control panel.

A) Check the condenser temperature is too high or not. The value of high pressure must less than 22kg/cm2 G [R22], 15kg/cm2 G [R-134a] under 35C ambient temperature.
B) Check refrigerant leaking or not. The high/low pressure and amphere (full load) will reduce if refrigerant leaking.
C) Keep sub-colled degree within 3~8C.
5. Others
A) Check the regular solenoid valve is working normally or not.
B) Check protective device is working normally or not.

7. Unit Maintenance
7.1 Caution
1) Service on this chiller unit is to be performed by qualified refrigeration personnel familiar with chiller unit operation, maintenance, correct servicing procedures, and the safety hazards inherent in this work. Causes for repeated
tripping of equipment protection controls must be investigated and corrected.
2) Disconnect all power before doing any service and maintenance.

7.2 Description

1) On initial start-up and periodically during operation, it will be necessary to perform certain routine service checks.
Among these are checking the liquid line sight-glasses, taking condensing and suction pressure readings. A recommended maintenance schedule is located at the end of this section.
2) It is suggested that the maintenance log be completed on a weekly basis. The log will serve as a useful tool for
a service technician in the event service is required.
3) No routine lubrication is required chiller units. The fan motor bearings are permanently lubricated and no further
lubrication is required. Excessive fan motor bearing noise is an indication of a potential bearing failure.
4) Electrical terminals should be checked semi-annually for tightness.
5) The condensers are air-cooled and no maintenance is ordinarily required except the routine removal of dirt and
debris from the outside surface of the fins.
