110-279 7
Controls and Components
Your DuraChill Chiller consists of three basic sub-systems:
• Control
• Fluid circulation
• Cooling
This section describes these sub-systems in detail and includes information on the available options. Please
note that your Chiller may or may not be equipped with all the components discussed.
Control System
Control Panel — Temperature set point, temperature units, and other operating parameters are set via the
Control Panel. Operating information is displayed on a local digital readout.
Power Switch / Disconnect — The main power switch is located on the front door of the Chiller. This switch
also functions as a power disconnect when access to the unit’s components and terminal blocks is required; the
access door cannot be opened until the Power Switch / Disconnect is placed in the OFF position.
NOTE: Loss of Power – In the event that power is lost while the Chiller is operating, the unit will
automatically resume operation when the power is restored. If the unit was in Standby mode when power is
lost, it will power up in Standby mode. The above is also true if power is removed via the Power Switch /
Disconnect.
Temperature Probe — An internal RTD is used to measure fluid temperature downstream of the pump. Its
reading is displayed on the Control Panel’s LED temperature display.
Flow Sensor — Monitors process fluid flow. If the flow rate is less than the user-settable alarm value, power to
the pump, compressor, and fan is removed and an alarm message displayed on the Control Panel’s LED
readout.
Flow Switch — Requires a minimum of ~4 gpm (15.1 lpm) to close. If the flow rate is too low, the switch will
open and power to the pump, compressor, and fan removed; an alarm message will also be displayed on the
Control Panel’s LED readout.
Fluid Pressure Sensor — Measures fluid pressure at the pump outlet. If the fluid pressure exceeds the user-
settable alarm value, power to the pump, compressor, and fan is removed and an alarm message displayed on
the Control Panel’s LED readout.
Refrigerant Pressure Switches — When activated, these switches remove power to the pump, compressor,
and fan; an alarm message is also displayed on the Control Panel’s LED readout.
The Low Pressure Switch opens if the refrigerant pressure falls below 10 psi (0.7 bar) and closes if the
pressure is above 30 psi (2.1 bar). The Low Pressure Switch will auto-reset.
The High Pressure Switch opens if the refrigerant pressure exceeds 630 psi (43.4 bar). The High
Pressure Switch must be manually reset (see Troubleshooting, Compressor Overload Fault).
110-279 8
Fan Cycling Switch — This switch control fan operation. The fan turns ON when the discharge pressure of the
refrigerant exceeds 400 psi (27.8 bar) and remains running until the pressure falls below 300 psi (20.7 bar).
NOTE: 10 HP Chillers have two fans. One fan turns ON with the compressor and runs continuously as long
as the compressor is ON; operation of the second fan is based on refrigerant pressure as described above.
Reservoir Float Switch (Optional) — Measures liquid level in the Chiller’s reservoir. If the fluid level drops too
low, power to the pump, compressor, and fan is removed and an alarm message displayed on the Control
Panel’s LED readout.
Cooling System
110-279 9
Hot Gas Bypass Solenoid Valve — Injects refrigerant vapor into the Evaporator to help maintain a constant
temperature when the temperature of the process fluid falls below the temperature set point. Under low- and no-
load conditions, temperature continues to fall until it reaches the “Lb” lower band and shuts the Compressor
OFF.
Refrigerant Safety Relief Valve — This is an automatic safety used to vent refrigeration gas if it exceeds 650
psi (44.8 bar).

Installation and Startup
Site Requirements
Ambient Temperature and Relative Humidity
The Chiller is designed for indoor installation in ambient temperatures between 60° and 104°F (16° and 40°C);
relative humidity should not exceed 80% (non-condensing).
Location
The Chiller should be installed on a strong, level surface capable of supporting 1050 lbs. / 476.3 kg (5 and 7.5
HP units) or 1500 lbs. / 680.1 kg (10 HP units).
It should be located as close to possible to the process requiring cooling and installed no closer than 4 feet (1.4
meters) to a heat-generating source, such as heating pipes, boilers, etc. If possible, the Chiller should be
located near a suitable drain to prevent flooding in the event of leaks. Do not place it where corrosive fumes,
excessive moisture, excessive dust, or high room temperatures are present.
For ease of positioning and maneuverability, the Chiller is supplied with casters. The front wheels can be locked
to keep the Chiller in place while in use.
To help prevent voltage drops, position the Chiller as close as possible to the power distribution panel. Avoid
voltage drops by using a properly grounded power source wired to meet electrical data plate requirements. The
use of an extension cord is not recommended.
NOTE: The Chiller may be located at a level below that of the equipment being cooled. As long as the
process remains closed, overflow will not occur when adding cooling fluid to the Chiller reservoir.
Clearance
Adequate clearance should be allowed on the front, sides, and rear of the Chiller for access to connections and
components. The front and rear vents of the Chiller must be a minimum of 24 inches (61 cm) away from walls or
vertical surfaces so air flow is not restricted.

Electrical Power
WARNING: Make sure the main power switch is in the OFF position before connecting or disconnecting
electrical power from the unit. Follow all applicable electrical and safety codes and procedures when
connecting power to the unit. Electrical connections should be made by an authorized electrical installer.
WARNING:
Make certain that the electrical supply is the same voltage and frequency as your unit (see identification
label).
Make sure electrical connections comply with all applicable electrical codes.
Ground the Chiller in accordance with NEC Article 250.
Operating voltage must be within 10% of the data plate rating.
Phase imbalance must be below 5%.
WARNING: DO NOT apply power to the Chiller until the unit is ready for Startup
CAUTION: DO NOT apply power to the Chiller until the Reservoir has been filled. When Controller power
is turned ON, the pump automatically begins pumping. If the Reservoir has not been filled, the pump could
be damaged.
The Chiller is equipped with a phase monitor that prevents startup if phase sequence is incorrect. It will also turn
the Chiller OFF in the event of a loss of one phase and/or prevent Chiller operation if there is a voltage
mismatch between any two phases greater than 8%. Be sure to connect electrical lines in proper sequence, i.e.:
L1, L2, and L3.
There is a junction box on the rear of the unit to which you can connect the electrical power supply conduit. Be
sure to provide suitable conduit strain relief and grounding.
WARNING: DO NOT remove the ground wire while diagnosing any power supply problems.
110-279 14
Signal Inputs/Outputs
Alarm Output
This allows the operator to connect a remote alarm device to the Chiller. The alarm output consists of normally
open (NO) and normally closed (NC) contacts which are switched whenever an alarm, fault, or error condition is
detected or when the Chiller is OFF. A 10-ft (3 m) cord with 5-pin mating plug is provided.
110-279 15
External Piping
General Considerations
To maintain a safe workplace and avoid leaks, special care should be taken when choosing hoses and
connectors for the Chiller. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the tubing and fittings connected to the
Chiller are compatible with the fluid, temperature, and pressure being used.
• Pressure Ratings – Hoses should be able to withstand a minimum pressure of 250 psi (17.2 bar).
• Flexible Tubing – Avoid tubing that will expand and increase fluid volume when operating at the desired
pressure.
• Take care when selecting hoses and connections for the Chiller. All external piping, tubing, or hoses should
be run full size to limit the potential for external pressure drops. The use of quick-connect fittings is not
recommended, as they can cause substantial pressure drops.
• Where applicable, always use a back-up wrench when making piping connections to the Chiller.
• Hose Diameter – The fittings on the Chiller’s process fluid lines are female 1.5 in NPT. The facility water
fluid inlets and outlets on water-cooled models are female 0.75 inch NPT.
• Facility Water (water-cooled models only) – Should be clean and well maintained. Ideally, the facility water
should be tested monthly to ensure a pH level between 7.2 and 7.8. Add algaecide if algae growth is
present.
WARNING: The incoming cooling water pressure should be 20 psi / 1.4 bar minimum and 40 psi / 2.8 bar
maximum.
Water-cooled Chillers have two internally threaded (0.75 inch ID NPT) on the rear of the instrument housing for
the facility water connections. The cooling water supply should be connected to the facility water inlet on the
Chiller. The facility water outlet on the Chiller should be connected to the appropriate return or drain, as
required.
The cooling water supply may be from city tap water or a cooling tower. The incoming water pressure should be
between 20 and 40 psi / 1.4 and 2.8 bar.
Reservoir Drain
A 0.75 inch NPT connection is provided at the bottom of the reservoir Sight Glass / Level Indicator for the
reservoir’s gravity drain. It should be piped to a drain or receptacle positioned below the bottom of the reservoir.
If a receptacle is used, be sure it is of sufficient volume to hold all the coolant in the reservoir, process, and
process lines.
110-279 16
If the Chiller is equipped with the heater option, a Reservoir vent should be installed. This vent relieves pressure
within the Reservoir as coolant heats and expands.
It may be also necessary to vent and/or add a venting pipe to the Chiller to prevent siphoning and/or overflow
due to the amount of fluid external to the Chiller’s reservoir and/or location of the process being cooled.
NOTE: If the amount of fluid present in the process piping when the Chiller is turned OFF exceeds the
capacity of the Reservoir, it may be necessary to install a normally closed (NO) solenoid valve on the
Chiller’s fluid inlet and a check valve on the Chiller’s fluid outlet to prevent backflow into the unit.
Internal Bypass
This allows the operator to adjust the maximum operating pressure to the process. Actual pressures vary with
different pumps. It is recommended that pressures be set below 80 PSI (5.5 bar). The Internal Bypass is located
on the left front side of the Chiller housing just above the pump.
110-279 17
Process Coolant
Suitable Fluids
WARNING: Use only fluids that comply with safety, health, and equipment compatibility requirements. Read
the safety data sheet for the fluid being used carefully before use.
CAUTION: Do not fill the Reservoir with deionized water unless the Chiller is equipped with the DI water
compatible plumbing option.
The Chiller is designed to accommodate a variety of coolant fluids (water, glycol mixtures, etc). For most
applications above 60°F (16°C), distilled water is satisfactory. For operation below 60°F (16°C), the Chiller must
be protected with an antifreeze solution. Laboratory grade ethylene glycol or propylene glycol and water in a
50/50 mixture is satisfactory from 5° to 60°F (-15° to +16°C). Select a fluid that is compatible with the Chiller’s
wetted parts (brass, bronze, stainless steel, EPDM rubber, nylon, PVC).
CAUTION: Coolant freeze protection must be 25°F (14°C) below the lowest possible temperature. The
lowest possible temperature is equal to the process temperature minus the Lower Band ‘Lb’ setting (see
Normal Operation, Setting Operational Parameters / Limits, Lower Band).
CAUTION: Operation below 15°C (59°F) requires antifreeze in the circulation fluid. DO NOT use
automotive antifreeze as the additives may be harmful to the Chiller’s wetted parts.
DO NOT USE the following fluids:
• Automotive antifreeze with additives**
• Hard tap water**
• Deionized water with a specific resistance > 1 meg ohm (except units with the DI water compatible
plumbing
• Any flammable fluids
• Concentrations of acids or bases
• Solutions with halides: chlorides, fluorides, bromides, iodides or sulfur
• Bleach (Sodium Hypochlorite)
• Solutions with chromates or chromium salts
• Glycerin
• Syltherm fluids
** At temperatures above 40°C, additives or mineral deposits can adhere to the heater. If deposits are
allowed to build up, the heater may overheat and fail. Higher temperatures and higher concentrations of
additives can hasten deposit build up.
An algaecide may be added to the coolant fluid to prevent algae growth (see PolyScience Chiller Fluids).
110-279 18
Startup
CAUTION: The first time the Chiller is operated it should run for 12 hours in the Standby mode to allow the
compressor crankcase heater to boil off any refrigerant absorbed in the compressor oil.
CAUTION: DO NOT turn Controller power ON until the Reservoir has been filled. When Controller power is
turned ON, the pump automatically begins pumping. If the Reservoir has not been filled, the pump may be
damaged.
110-279 19
Starting Process Fluid Flow
1. Place the Power Switch / Disconnect in the ON position. The Control Panel displays will respond by
showing five decimal points (.....). This indicates that the Chiller is in the Standby mode and is ready for
power up. If this is the first time the Chiller is being operated, allow it to run in the Standby mode for 12
hours (see Caution note above).
2. Press the Power Button on the Control Panel. The system startup sequence will begin and proceed as
follows:
• The pump will turn on and fluid will begin circulating through the system.
CAUTION: On initial startup or after long periods of inactivity, run the Chiller for 10 seconds, turn
power OFF, and restart five times to remove any air in the process lines.
• The set point temperature will appear briefly on the Temperature Display; after a few seconds, it will be
replaced by the actual fluid temperature. The right decimal point will flash while the set point is being
displayed.
• The system will go through a short initialization sequence.
• Once initialization has been completed, the compressor will begin operating. When the pressure in the
discharge line reaches 400 psi (27.6 bar), the fan will turn ON. Water-cooled units: The coolant water
regulating valve opens/closes to maintain the pressure in the discharge line at approximately 250 psi
(17.2 bar).
• The Controller will display the actual process fluid temperature and the appropriate ‘degrees’ LED will
be lit (C or F).
3. Check for leaks.
4. With the pump running, the reservoir’s fluid level will drop as the process and/or process cooling lines fill
with fluid. Slowly add fluid to the reservoir until the liquid level remains stable. This means that the system
is filled and any entrained air has been purged.
5. Replace the reservoir cap.

Routine Maintenance
Recommended Routine Maintenance Schedule
Routine Maintenance Procedure Frequency1
Check reservoir coolant level Monthly
Check coolant freeze protection Monthly
Inspect and clean inline strainer Weekly for first month of operation;
every 3 months thereafter.
Inspect and clean air filters Weekly for first month of operation;
every 3 months thereafter.
1. Minimum maintenance frequency. Your plant conditions may require more frequent inspection and
cleaning.
CAUTION: Coolant freeze protection must be 25°F (14°C) below the lowest possible temperature. The
lowest possible temperature is equal to the process temperature minus the Lower Band (Lb) setting. See
Normal Operation, Setting Operational Parameters / Limits.
If your Chiller is operating below 59°F (15°C), it must be protected with an antifreeze solution. The coolant
should be checked periodically for proper freeze protection.
Inline Strainer
The Chiller’s inline strainer should be inspected and cleaned weekly for the first month of operation. Once you
are certain that all debris that has been generated or dislodged has been removed from the process coolant,
strainer inspection and cleaning should be performed every three months or as required, whichever is more
frequent.
1. Place the Power Switch / Disconnect in the OFF position.
2. Remove the Chiller’s left side rear panel. The inline strainer is located just above the Reservoir at the
inlet to the Chiller.
3. Using an adjustable wrench or the proper size hex head socket, loosen and remove the inline strainer
cap and screen.
NOTE: There will be a small amount of residual coolant within the housing of the inline strainer
which will drain out when the cap is removed.
4. Clean the screen. Either water or high pressure air can be used to remove accumulated debris.
5. Replace screen and drain cap and tighten.
6. Place Power Switch / Disconnect in the ON position.
7. Check for leaks before replacing left rear side panel.
110-279 34
Air Filters
Chillers incorporate two or more high-efficiency, removable air filters. These should be inspected weekly during
the first month of operation to determine how frequently cleaning is required. Units located in dusty or oily
environments will require more frequent air filter cleaning.
CAUTION: DO NOT allow the air filters to become caked with dust or coated with an oily film. This
significantly reduces air flow and will decrease cooling efficiency. It can also lead to filter breakthrough,
allowing dust and oil to get into and on the fins and coils of the condenser.
110-279 35
Troubleshooting
NOTE: Many problems can be resolved by restoring the factory defaults. If this solves the problem, be
careful when restoring your operational settings in order not to repeat the problem.
To restore the factory default settings:
1. Place the Power Switch / Disconnect in the OFF position.
2. Press and hold the Units/Menu Button (for °F) or the Power Button (for °C) while returning the
Power Switch / Disconnect to the ON position.
WARNING: Service should only be performed by qualified personnel. Extreme caution is required as
hazards are present when servicing this equipment.
WARNING: When electrical power is ON, dangerous voltages exist within chassis components. Use
extreme care when measuring voltages on live circuits.

Compressor Overload Fault (Ft 20)
The Chiller has both low and high refrigerant pressure sensors. They are wired in series and connect to DAF2
on the Control PCB. If either sensor opens, the Ft 20 alarm is activated. To troubleshoot, measure the continuity
across each senor.
Low Pressure Sensor
The low pressure sensor opens if the suction pressure drops below 15 psi (1 bar) and automatically closes
when the suction pressure rises above 30 psi (2.1) bar. If a continuity check of this sensor shows that it is open,
it is probably due to a loss of refrigerant, although a faulty sensor cannot be ruled out. Contact your local HVAC
technician to check the refrigeration system.
High Pressure Sensor
The high pressure sensor opens if the discharge pressure exceeds 630 psi (43.4 bar). If a continuity check
shows that this sensor is open, it may be due to high ambient temperature, dirty air filters, or large heat loads. A
faulty sensor cannot be ruled out.
Once the high pressure sensor opens, it must be manually reset as follows:

RS-232 Serial Communications (RS-485 Option)
Serial Connector — A 9-pin D-connector (optional) is provided on the back panel of the Chiller for RS-232 / RS-
485 data communication. A serial cable that uses only the following pins should be used to connect the Chiller
to the computer:
RS-232 RS-485
Pin # 2 data read (data from computer) Pin # 3 DAT (+) on “B”
Pin # 3 data transmit (data to computer) Pin # 5 signal ground
Pin # 5 signal ground Pin # 9 DAT (-) on “A”
RS-232 / RS-485 Protocol — The controller uses the following RS-232 / RS-485 protocol:
Data bits — 8
Parity — none
Stop bits — 1
Flow control — none
Baud rate — selectable (Chiller and PC baud rates must match).
Communications Commands — Commands must be entered in the exact format shown. Do not send a [LF] (line
feed) after the [CR] (carriage return). Be sure to follow character case exactly. A question mark (?) indicates that
the Chiller could not execute the command (either because it was in an improper format or the values were
outside the allowable range). A response followed by an exclamation point (!) indicates that a command was
executed correctly. A response must be received from the Chiller before another command can be sent. All
responses are terminated with a single [CR].
