1.2 General description
All EWYT~CZ / EWAT~CZ machines are built in accordance with the main European Directives (Machinery Directive, Low Voltage Directive, Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive, Pressure Equipment Directive.
The unit purchased is a Heat Pump, that is a machine designed to cool/heat the water (or a water -glycol mixture) within certain limits which will be listed below. The unit operates based on the compression, condensation and evaporation of the coolant gas as per the Carnot cycle and is composed mainly of the following parts depending on the Mode of Operation.
Cooling or Conditioning Mode :

  • One or more scroll compressors which increase the pressure of the refrigerant gas from evaporation pressure to condensation pressure.
  • A condenser where the refrigerant gas condenses under high pressure and transfers heat to the air.
  • An expansion valve which allows the pressure of condensed liquid refrigerant to be reduced from condensation pressure to evaporation pressure.
  • An evaporator, where the low-pressure liquid refrigerant evaporates and chills the water.

Heating Mode or Heat Pump:

  • One or more scroll compressors which increase the pressure of the refrigerant gas from evaporation pressure to condensation pressure.
  • A condenser where the refrigerant gas condenses under high pressure and transfers heat to the water.
  • An expansion valve which allows the pressure of condensed liquid refrigerant to be reduced from condensation pressure to evaporation pressure
  • An evaporator, where the low-pressure liquid refrigerant evaporates.
  • The operation of the heat exchangers can be inverted using the 4way valve, with which the use of the heating/cooling unit can be seasonally inverted.

All units are fully assembled in the factory and tested before shipping. The EWYT~CZ / EWAT~CZ range consists of models with a single cooling circuit and models with two cooling circuits.
The machine uses R32 refrigerant fluid suitable for the entire field of application of the machine.
The controller is prewired, set up and tested at the factory. Only normal field connections such as piping, electrical connections and pump interlocks are required, simplifying installation and increasing reliability. All safety and operation control systems are installed at the factory in the control panel.
The instructions in this manual are applicable to all models in this series unl ess otherwise specified.
1.3 Information about the refrigerant

  • lifting straps
  • forklift, where the dimensions of the forks permit.

N.B.: Follow the lifting instructions provided in the ID plate fastened to the electrical panel. DAIKIN EWYT-CZ Air Water Heat Pump Units with
Scroll Compressors - Figure 14.2.2 Lifting the DUAL unitDAIKIN EWYT-CZ Air Water Heat
Pump Units with Scroll Compressors - Figure 2 4.3 Positioning and assembly
All units are designed for installation outdoors, either on balconies or on the ground, provided that the installation area is free of obstacles that could reduce air flow to the condensers coil.
The unit must be installed on a robust and perfectly level foundation; should the unit be installed on balconies or roofs, it might be necessary to use weight distribution beams.
For installation on the ground, a strong concrete base, at least 150 mm thickness and wider than the unit must be provided.
This base must be able to support the weight of the unit. In heavy snowfall areas, this thickness should be increased, The frame of the unit must be levelled using metal plate spaces. DAIKIN EWYT-CZ Air Water Heat Pump Units
with Scroll Compressors - Figure 3The base can be installed both longitudinally or transversely. In the following figures are illustrated the mounting holes location: DAIKIN EWYT-CZ Air Water Heat Pump Units with Scroll Compressors -
Figure 4Before unit commissioning, the flatness must be verified by using a laser levelling device or other similar devices. The flatness shall not be over 5 mm for units within 7 m length.
To ensure best performance on the installation site, the fol lowing precautions and instructions must be followed

  • Avoid air flow recirculation;
  • Make sure that there are no obstacles to hamper air flow;
  • Make sure to provide a strong and solid foundation to reduce noise and vibrations;
  • Avoid installation in particularly dusty environments, in order to reduce soiling of condensers coils.

4.3.1 Mounting the main switch handle

  1. Unpair the locknut from the handle of the main switch
  2. Place the handle in the hole dedicated
  3. Fix the main switch handle by tightening the locknut from the back of the panel
  4. Insert the rod of the main switch
  5. Fasten the rod of the main switch
  6. Mount the panel

NOTE: in case the calculated value of ?1 and/or ?1 is higher than 2000mm, consider 2000mm as minimum distance
4.4 Minimum space requirements
It is fundamental to respect minimum distances on all units to ensure optimum ventilation to the condenser coils.
When deciding where to position the unit and to ensure a proper air flow, the following factors must be taken into consideration:

  • avoid any warm air recirculation;
  • avoid insufficient air supply to the aircooled condenser.

Both these conditions can cause an increase of condensing pressure, which leads to a reduction in energy efficiency and refrigerating capacity.
Any side of the unit must be accessible for postinstallation maintenance operations and vertical air discharge must not be obstructed. Figure below shows the minimum space required.DAIKIN EWYT-CZ Air Water Heat Pump Units

C : Front view of battery
:Intake
If the unit is installed in a free field, the distances indicated are: A/B/C/D ≥ 500 mm
In the presence of obstacles or walls, the following minimum distances are recommended: DAIKIN EWYT-CZ Air Water Heat Pump Units with Scroll
Compressors - Figure 7With A1 and C1 the new minimum distances,
NOTE: In case the calculated value of A1 and/or C1 is higher than 2000mm, consider 2000mm as minimum distance.
If two units are installed in a free field side by side along their longer sides, A and C, the minimum recommended distance between them is 1000 mm; if two units are installed side by side along their shorter sides, sides B and D, the minimum distance between them should be 500 mm. Should the unit be installed without observing the recommended minimum distances from walls and/or vertical obstacles, there could be a combination of warm air recirculation and/or insufficient supply to the aircooled condenser which could cause a reduction of capacity and efficiency.
In any case, the microprocessor will allow the unit to adapt itself to new operating conditions and delive r the maximum available capacity under any given circumstances, even if the lateral distance is lower than recommended, unless the operating conditions should affect personnel safety or unit reliability.

Compressors - Figure 8The minimum distances, reported above, ensure functionality of the unit in most applications
4.5 Additional installation site requirements

  • When installing, take strong winds, typhoons or earthquakes into account, improper installation may result in the unit turning over.
  • Take care that in the event of a water leak, water cannot cause any damage to the installation space and surroundings.
  • Be sure that the air inlet of the unit is not positioned towards the main wind direction. Frontal wind will disturb the operation of the unit. If necessary, use a screen to block the wind.
  • Ensure that water cannot cause any damage to the location by adding water drains to the foundation and prevent water traps in the construction.

Seaside installation Make sure the outdoor unit is NOT directly exposed to sea winds. This is to prevent corrosion caused by high levels of salt in the air, which might shorten the life of the unit.
Install the outdoor unit away from direct sea winds.
Example: Behind the building (case I).
If the outdoor unit is exposed to direct sea winds, install a Windbreaker (case II).

  • Height of windbreaker ≥1.5×height of outdoor unit
  • Mind the service space requirements when installing the windbreaker

DAIKIN EWYT-CZ Air Water Heat Pump Units with Scroll Compressors - Figure
9 Legend:
a. Sea wind
b. Building
c. Outdoor unit
d. Windbreaker
When operating the unit in a low outdoor ambient temperature, be sure to follow the instructions described below.
To prevent exposure to wind and snow, install a baffle plate on the air side of the outdoor unit: In heavy snowfall areas it is very important to select an installation site where the snow will NOT affect the unit. If lateral snowfall is possible, make sure that the heat exchanger coil is NOT affected by the snow. If necessary, install a snow cover or shed and a pedestal.
For instructions on how to install the snow cover, contact your dealer.
When installing the snow cover, do NOT obstruct the air flow of the unit.
4.6 Noise and acoustic protection
The unit is a source of noise mainly due to rotation of compressors and fans. The noise level for each model size is listed in sales documentation. If the unit is correctly installed, operated and maintained the noise emission level do not require any special protection device to operate continuously close to the unit without any risk.
4.7 Water circuit for connection with the unit
4.7.1 Water piping
Piping must be designed with the lowest number of elbows and the lowest number of vertical changes of direction. In this way, installation costs are reduced considerably, and system performance is improved.
The water system must have:

  1. Antivibration mountings to reduce transmission of vibrations to the structures.
  2. Isolating valves to isolate the unit from the water system during maintenance.
  3. To protect the unit, the BPHE must be protected against freezing by continuous monitoring of the water flow in the BPHE by a flow switch. In most cases, on site, the flow switch is set to generate an alarm only when the water pump turns off and the water flow drops to zero. It is recommended to adjust the flow switch to produce a “Water Leakage Alarm” when the water flow reaches the minimum value of the flow allowable (see table 1); in this case the BPHE is protected against freezing and the flow switch can detect the clogging of the water filter.
  4. Manual or automatic air venting device at the system highest point and drain device at the system lowest point.
  5. Neither the BPHE nor the heat recovery device must be positioned at the system’s highest point.
  6. A suitable device that can maintain the water system under pressure (expansion tank, etc.).
  7. Water temperature and pressure indicators to assist the operator during service and maintenance.
  8. Gebrauch: A filter or device that can remove particles from the fluid. The use of a filter extends the life of the BPHE and pump and helps to keep the water system in a better condition. The water filter must be installed as close as possible to the unit. If the water filter is installed in another part of the water system, the Installer must guarantee the cleaning of the water pipes between the water filter and the BPHE. Precautions for correct use:
    • All water components and piping/hydraulic devices outside the unit must therefore be protected against freezing.
    • All water components (eg.BPHE) and piping/hydraulic devices must be emptied of water during the winter season, unless an ethylene glycol mixture in appropriate percentage is added to the water circuit.
    • In case of unit substitution, the entire water system must be emptied and cleaned before the new unit is installed.
    Regular tests and proper chemical treatment of water are recommended before starting up the new unit.
    • If glycol is added to the water system as antifreeze protection, pay attention to the fact that suction pressure will be lower, the unit performance will be lower and water pressure drops will be greater. All unit protection systems, such as antifreeze, and low-pressure protection will have to be readjusted.
    • When fastening the plant piping to the unit water piping, it is recommended to hold the threaded counterpart tight while fastening, to avoid unintentional rotations.
    The maximum glycol percentage is 40% for all the unit.
    In the following table are illustrated the minimum glycol percentage for low ambient air temperature AMBIENT T [°C]| -3 -8| 15 -20
    ---|---|---
    ETHYLENE GLYCOL| 10%| 20%| 30%| 40%
    PROPYLENE GLYCOL| 10%| 20%| 35%| 40%

Table 2 – Minimum glycol percentage for low ambient air temperature
Protection of the water circuit is necessary in the winter season, even with the unit not in operation.
• Before insulating water piping, check that there are no leaks. The complete hydraulic circuit must be insulated to prevent condensation and reduced refrigeration capacity. Protect the water pipes from frost during winter (using for example a glycol solution or a heating cable).
• Check that the water pressure does not exceed the design pressure of the water side heat exchangers. Install a safety valve on the water pipe downstream of the BPHE.

  1. Select the piping diameter in relation to the required water flow and available external static pressure of the pump.
    See the following table for the recommended water piping diameter. Unit| Water piping diameter
    ---|---
    EWAT/EWYT016~040CZ(N/P/H)-A1| 1 ¼”
    EWAT/EWYT040~090CZ(N/P/H)-A2| 2”

4.7.2 Flow-switch
Flow switch is a standard component fitted to all units. To ensure sufficient water flow through the plate exchanger, it is essential that a flow switch be installed on the water circuit. It is already installed in the standard supply. The purpose of the flow switch is to stop the unit in the event of interrupted water fl ow, thus protecting the BPHE from freezing.
This is a palette flow switch appropriate for uninterrupted use outdoors (IP65).
The flow switch is set up to intervene when the water flow of the BPHE reaches the minimum value of the flow acceptable (see the table below).

Modell Flow switch Setpoint [l/min]

EWAT/EWYT090CZ(N/P/H)-A2 57

Table 3 – Flow Switch Setpoint
To ensure correct operation of the unit, the value of the water flow in the evaporator must be within the declared range for that unit. A water flow lower than the minimum value shown in the following table (table 4) could cause problems with freezing, fouling and poor control. A water flow rate higher than the maximum value shown in table 4 will result in an unacceptable load loss and excessive erosion of the pipes, with vibrations that can cause breakage

Table 4 –Operating limits
4.7.3 Heat recovery (optional)
Units may be optionally equipped with heat recovery system.
This system is made by a water cooled heat exchanger located on the compressors discharge pipe.
To guarantee compressor operation within its envelope, units with heat recovery cannot operate with water temperature of the heat recovery water lower than 20°C.
It is a responsibility of plant designer and chiller installer to guarantee the respect of this value (e.g. using recirculati ng bypass valve).
4.7.4 Preparing and checking the water circuit connection
The units have water inputs and outputs for connecting the heat pump to water circuit of the system. This circuit must be connected to the unit by an authorized technician and must comply with all regulations on the subject.
If dirt penetrates the water circuit, there could be problems.
Therefore, always remember the following when connecting the water circuit:

  • Only use pipes that are clean inside
  • Keep the end of the pipe facing downward when removing any burrs
  • Cover the end of the pipe when inserting it through a wall to avoid dust and dirt getting in.
  • Clean the pipes of the system located between the filter and the unit, with running water, before connecting it to the system.

4.7.5 Water pressure
Check whether the water pressure is above 1 bar. If it is lower, add water.
The maximum operating pressure is 3 bar for P and H versions.
For N version please take care that the components installed in the field piping can withstand the water pressure “maximum 3 bar + static pressure of the external pump” and not exceeding 10 bar.
4.7.6 Hydraulic diagram

c. Threaded connector
Note: The hydraulic elements are supplied together with the unit and are located inside the cabinet.
4.8 Water treatment
Before putting the unit into operation, clean the water circuit.
The BPHE must not be exposed to flushing velocities or debris released during flushing. It is recommended that a suitably sized bypass and valve arrangement is installed to allow flushing of the piping system. The bypass can be used during maintenance to isolate the heat exchanger without disrupting flow to other units.
Any damage due to the presence of foreign bodies or debris in the BPHE will not be covered by warranty. Dirt, scales, corrosion debris and other material can accumulate inside the heat exchanger and reduce its heat exchanging capacity.
Pressure drop can increase as well, thus reducing water flow. Proper water treatment therefore reduces the ri sk of corrosion, erosion, scaling, etc. The most appropriate water treatment must be determined locally, according to the type of system and water characteristics.
The manufacturer is not responsible for damage to or malfunctioning of equipment caused by f ailure to treat water or by improperly treated water. In the following table are listed the acceptable water quality limits:

DAE Water quality requirements BPHE
pH (25 °C) 7,5– 9,0
Electrical conductivity [μS/cm] (25°C) <500
Chloride ion [mg Cl / l] < 70 (HP1); < 300 (CO2)

Refer to the CSS selection software for the actual operating limits in the working conditions for each model.
4.12 Operating stability and minimum water content in the system
For the correct functioning of the machines it is important to guarantee a minimum water content inside the system, avoiding an excessive number of compressor startups and stops. In fact, every time the compressor starts working, an excessive amount of oil from the compressor enters the circulation in the refrigerant circuit and at the same time there is an increase in the temperature of the compressor stator, generated by the inrush current of the starting. In order to prevent damage to the compressor, the control system will therefore permit no more than 10 startups per hour. The plant where the unit is installed must therefore ensure that the overall water content allows constant operation of the unit and consequently also greater environmental comfort.
As a general indication the water content should not be less than the values in the following table:

Heat Pump Suggested l/kW Min. water content [l]
EWYT016CZ(N/P/H)-A1 5.7 90
EWYT021CZ(N/P/H)-A1 5.0 100
EWYT025CZ(N/P/H)-A1 4.4 110

EWYT050CZ(N/P/H)-A2 2.6 130
EWYT064CZ(N/P/H)-A2 2.7 170
EWYT090CZ(N/P/H)-A2 2.7 230
Cooling only Suggested L/kW Min water content [l]
EWYT016CZ(N/P/H)-A1 3.7 58
EWYT021CZ(N/P/H)-A1 2.8 58
EWYT025CZ(N/P/H)-A1 2.4 58
EWYT032CZ(N/P/H)-A1 2.8 90
EWYT040CZ(N/P/H)-A1 2.3 90
EWYT040CZ(N/P/H)-A2 1.5 60
EWYT050CZ(N/P/H)-A2 1.2 60
EWYT064CZ(N/P/H)-A2 1.1 73
EWYT090CZ(N/P/H)-A2 1.0 90

Table 7 – Minimum water content in the system
NOTE : Extra water may be required in critical processes or in spaces with a high thermal load.
The difference in startup temperature may vary from 1 to 5 K. This has an impact on the minimum water volume required when the unit is functioning in cooling mode. The unit is preset for a startup temperature difference of 2.5 K.
The Thermo ON condition is shown below:  EWT > Setpoint + #Start ∆T

Standard Max Min
Startup ∆T (K) 2.5 5

By default, the unit is set to have a water temperature difference of 2.5 K which allows it to operate with the minimum volume mentioned in the previous table. However, if a smaller temperature differential is set, as in the case of process cooling applications where temperature fluctuations must be avoided, a larger minimum water volume will be required.
To ensure proper operation of the unit when changing the value of setting, the minimum water volume has to be corrected. If this volume exceeds the range allowed in the unit, an additional expansion vessel or a buffer tank must be installed in the field piping.
Minimum water volume correction factor
A water volume correction factor “a” is introduced on the basis of the difference in startup temperature “b”, the function of which is: a · b = 2,5DAIKIN EWYT-CZ Air Water Heat Pump Units with Scroll Compressors - Figure
19

Example: To illustrate the impact on the system when modifying the setting, we will consider a unit with a minimum allowable water volume of 58 L. Assuming that the setting is changed from Delta T 2.5 K (default) to 1.5 K. The correction factor to be applied is a=\frac{2,5}{1,5}=1,67, and so to calculate the minimum water content in the system for a 25 kW unit, in cooling mode, all we need to do is multiple the default minimum volume by this correction factor to obtain the new minimum volume, 97l.
4.13 Calibrating the expansion vessel
expansion vessel’s starting pressure depends on the difference between the level at which the unit is installed and the highest point in the water circuit, and is calculated as follows:
Pi=0,3+(H/10) (bar)

  • Pi Initial pressure
  • H Difference between the level at which the unit is installed and the highest point in the circuit

A unit with an onboard pump has a 12 liters expansion vessel with an initial pressure of 1 bar.
Maximum water volume
Refer to the graph below to determine the maximum water volume in order to calibrate the expansion vessel:DAIKIN EWYT-CZ Air Water Heat Pump Units with
Scroll Compressors - Figure 20

a Initial pressure of the expansion vessel [bar] b Maximum water volume [L] A Circuit without glycol
B Circuit with 30% ethylene glycol
C Circuit with 40% ethylene glycol
D Circuit with 30% propylene glycol
E Circuit with 40% propylene glycol
F Default
The default value for initial pressure, shown in the figure, refers to a difference in H of 7 metres.
If the total water volume in the entire circuit exceeds the permitted maximum volume, another expansion vessel must be installed. If the difference in system H is less than 7 metres and the init ial pressure reading is lower than the maximum permitted value (refer to the graph), no adjustment of initial pressure is required.
If it is necessary to change the default initial pressure value (1 bar), take the following recommendations into consideration:

  •  Use dry nitrogen only to set the initial pressure in the expansion vessel
  • An inappropriate initial pressure setting in the expansion vessel will result in malfunctioning of the system.

Changes to the initial pressure of the expansion vessel must be made by reducing or increasing nitrogen pressure using the Schrader valve on the expansion vessel.
NOTICE Only an authorised installer can adjust the initial pressure of the expansion vessel.
To check water volume: examples
Example 1
The unit is installed 5 m below the highest point in the water circuit. The total water volume in the water circuit is 250 litres. No actions or changes required.
Example 2
The unit is installed at the highest point in the water circuit. The total water volume in the water circuit (without the glycol) is 420 l.
Actions:
As the total water volume (420 l) is higher than the preset water volume (340 l), prepressure must be reduced.
The required prepressure is: Pg = (0,3+ (H / 10)) bar = (0,3+ (0/10)) bar = 0,3 bar
The corresponding maximum water volume is about 490 l (see graph).
As 420 l is less than 490 l, the expansion vessel is appropriate for the installation.
4.14 Antifreeze protection for BPHE and recovery exchangers
If the heat exchangers are completely empty and cleaned with antifreeze solution, additional methods can be used against freezing.
The following protection methods must be considered when designing the system as a whole:

  1. Continuous water flow circulation inside piping and exchangers;

  2. Addition of an appropriate amount of glycol inside the water circuit or, as alternative, an additional heat insulation and heating of exposed piping (internal and external to the unit);

  3. If the unit does not work during the winter season, emptying and cl eaning of the heat exchanger.
    It is the responsibility of the installer and/or of local maintenance personnel to ensure that described antifreeze methods are used. Make sure that appropriate antifreeze protection is always maintained. Failing to follow the instructions above could result in unit damage.

  4. ELECTRIC HEATER (Option on request). A heater tape is installed on the water side components (the plates heat exchanger and the expansion vessel) to protect vital parts of the hydraulic system i nside the unit. This heater tape will only protect internal parts of the unit. It cannot protect field installed parts outside the unit. Field heater tapes must be provided by the installer.(1)

Damage caused by freezing is excluded from the warranty, therefore Daikin Applied Europe S.p.A. declines all responsibility.
(1) Heat recovery exchanger is not equipped with heater tape.

When using residual current operated circuit brakers, be sure to use a high- speed type 300 mA rated residual operating current.
5.4 Phase unbalance
In a three-phase system, the excessive unbalance between the phases is the cause of the engine overheating. The maximum permitted voltage unbalance is 3%, calculated as follows:
Imbalance % = (Vx – Vm) 100 Vm
Where:
Vx = Phase with greatest imbalance
Vm = Average of the voltages
Example:
The three phases measure 383, 386 and 392 V respectively.
The average is: 383 + 386 + 392 3 = 387 V
The unbalance percentage is: (392 – 387)
100 387 = 1,29 %
Less than the maximum allowed (3%).

OPERATOR’S REPONSIBILITIES

It is essential that the operator is appropriately trained and becomes familiar with the system before operating the unit. In addition to reading this manual, the operator must study the microprocessor operating manual and the wiring diagram to understand startup sequence, operation, shutdown sequence and operation of all the safety devices.
During the unit initial startup phase, a technician authorized by the manufacturer is available to answer any questions and to give instructions as to the correct operating procedures.
The operator must keep a record of operating data for every installed unit. Another registration must also be kept for all the periodic maintenance and assistance activities.
If the operator notes abnormal or unusual operating conditions, he is advised to consult the technical service authorized by the manufacturer.
If the unit is switched off, the compressor oil heater cannot be used. Once the unit is reconnected to the mains, leave the compressor oil heater charged for at least 6 hours before restarting the unit.
Failure to observe this rule may cause damage to the compressors due to excessive accumulation of liquid inside them.
This unit represents a substantial investment and deserves the attention and care to keep this equipment in good  working order.
However, during operation and maintenance it is essential to observe the following instructions:

  • Do not allow unauthorized and / or unqualified personnel to access the unit;
  • It is forbidden to access the electrical components without having opened the unit main switch and switched off the power supply;
  • It is forbidden to access the electrical components without using an insula ting platform. Do not access the electrical components if water and/or moisture are present;
  • Verify that all operations on the refrigerant circuit and on the components under pressure are carried out exclusively by qualified personnel;
  • The replacement of the compressors must be carried out exclusively by qualified personnel;
  • Sharp edges and the surface of the condenser section could cause injury. Avoid direct contact and use adequate protection device;
  • Do not introduce solid objects into the water pipes while the unit is connected to the system;
  • It is absolutely forbidden to remove all protections of moving parts.

In case of sudden stop of the unit, follow the instructions on the Control Panel Operating Manual which is part of the on board documentation delivered to the end user.
It is strongly recommended to perform installation and maintenance with other people.
Avoid installing the unit in areas that could be dangerous during maintenance operations, such as platforms without parapets or railings or areas not complying with the clearance requirements around the unit.

MAINTENANCE

Personnel working on the electrical or the refrigeration components must be authorized, trained and fully qualified.
Maintenance and repair requiring the assistance of other skilled personnel should be carried out under the supervision of the person competent in the use of flammable refrigerants. Any person conducting servicing or maintenance on a system or associated parts of the equipment should be competent according to EN 13313.
Persons working on refrigerating systems with flammable refrigerants should have competence in safety aspects of flammable refrigerant handling supported by evidence of appropriate training.
No person carrying out work in relation to a refrigerating system which involves exposing any pipe work shall use any  sources of ignition in such a manner that it may lead to the risk of fire or explosion. All possible ignition sources, includ ing cigarette smoking, should be kept sufficiently far away from the site of installation, repairing, removing and disposal, during which refrigerant can possibly be released to the surrounding space. Prior to work taking place, the area around the equipment is to be surveyed to make sure that there are no flammable hazards or ignition risks. “No Smoking” signs shall be displayed.
Always protect the operating personnel with personal protective equipment appropriate for the tasks to be performed.
Common individual devices are: Helmet, goggles, gloves, caps, safety shoes. Additional individual and group protective equipment should be adopted after an adequate analysis of the specific risks in the area of relevance, according to the activities to be performed.

Electrical components| Never work on electrical components until the machine’s main power supply has been cut off with the main switch on the electrical panel. Wait 10 minutes after cutting off the machine’s power supply before opening the electrical panel, to prevent the risk of high voltage due to firing of the capacitors.
---|---
Refrigeranting system| The following precautions should be taken before working on the refrigerant circuit:
· obtain permit for hot work (if required);
· ensure that no flammable materials are stored in the work area and that no ignition sources are present anywhere in the work area;
· ensure that suitable fire extinguishing equipment is available;
· ensure that the work area is properly ventilated before working on the refrigerant circuit or before welding, brazing or soldering work;
· ensure that the leak detection equipment being used is nonsparking, adequately sealed or intrinsically safe;
· ensure that all maintenance staff have been instructed
· perform the following procedure before working on the refrigerant circuit:
· remove refrigerant (specifying residual pressure);
· purge circuit with inert gas (e.g. nitrogen);
· evacuate at a pressure of 0.3 bar (ass.) (or 0.03 MPa);
·  purge circuit with inert gas (e.g. nitrogen) again;
· open the circuit.
If compressors or compressor oils are to be removed, it should be ensured that it has been evacuated to an acceptable level to ensure that there is no flammable refrigerant remaining within the lubricant. Only refrigerant recovery equipment designed for use with flammable refrigerants should be employed.
If the national rules or regulations permit the refrigerant to be drained, this should be done safely, using a hose, for example, through which the refrigerant is discharged into the outside atmosphere in a safe area. It should be ensured that an inflammable explosive refrigerant concentration cannot occur near an ignition source or penetrate into a building under any circumstance.
In the case of refrigerating systems with an indirect system, the heat transfer fluid should be checked for the possible presence of refrigerant.
After any repair work, the safety devices, for example refrigerant detectors and mechanical ventilation systems, should be checked and the results recorded.
It should be ensured that any missing or illegible label on components of the refrigerant circuit is replaced.
Sources of ignition should not be used when searching for a refrigerant leak.

7.1 Pressure / temperature tableDAIKIN EWYT-CZ Air Water Heat Pump
Units with Scroll Compressors - Figure 21 7.2 Routine maintenance
This unit must be maintained by qualified technicians. Before beginning any work on the system, the personnel shall assure that all security precautions have been taken.
Neglecting unit maintenance could degrade all parts of the units (coils, compressors, frames, pipes, etc.) with negative effect on performances and functionality.
There are two different levels of maintenance, which can be chosen according to the type of application (critical/noncritical) or to the installation environment (highly aggressive).
Examples of critical applications are process cooling, data centres, etc. Highly Aggressive Environments can be defined as the follows:

  • Industrial environment (with possible concentration of fumes result of combustion and chemical process);
  • Coastal environment;
  • Highly polluted urban environment;
  • Rural environment close to of animal excrement and fertilizers, and high concentration of exhaust gas from diesel generators;
  • Desert areas with risk of sandstorms;
  • Combinations of the above.

Table 10 lists all Maintenance activities for standard applications and standard environment. Table 11 lists all Maintenance activities for critical applications or highly aggressive environment.
Unit exposed to a highly aggressive environment can face corrosion in a shorter time than ones installed on a standard environment. Corrosion causes a rapid rusting of the frame core, consequently, decreases unit structure life time. To avoid that, it is necessary to wash periodically the frame surfaces with water and suitable detergents.
In case of part of unit frame paint came off, it is important to stop its progressive deterioration by repainting the exposed parts using proper products. Please contact factory to get the required products specifications.
In case of just salt deposits are present, it is enough to rinse the parts with fresh water.
7.2.1 Air Heat Exchanger Maintenance
Routine cleaning of air heat exchanger surfaces is essential to maintai n proper operation of the unit, avoid corrosion and rusting. Elimination of contamination and removal of harmful residues will greatly increase the life of the coil and extend the life of the unit.
Remove surface dirt, leaves, fibers, etc. with a vacuum cleaner (preferably with a brush or other soft attachment rather than a metal tube), compressed air blown from the inside out, and/or a soft bristle (not wire!) brush. Do not impact or scrape the coil with the vacuum tube, air nozzle, etc.
Use of a water stream, such as a garden hose, against a surface loaded coil will drive the fibers and dirt into the coil.
This will make cleaning efforts more difficult. Surface loaded fibers must be completely removed prior to using low velocity clean water rinse.
A monthly clean water rinse is recommended for coils that are applied in coastal or industrial environments to help to remove chlorides, dirt and debris. It is very important when rinsing that the water temperature is below 55 °C.
Galvanic corrosion of the connection Copper/Aluminum can occurre in corrosive atmosphere under the plastic protection;
during the maintenance operations or periodic cleaning, check the aspect of the plastic protection of the copper/aluminum connection. If it is inflated, damaged or took off contact the manufacturer representative for advice and information.
7.2.2 Electrical Installation
All electrical maintenance activities must be followed by qualified personnel. Make sure the system is switched off and the main switch of the unit open. Failure to observe this rule could result in serious personal injury. When the unit is turned off but the disconnection switch is in the closed position, the unused circuits will still be active.
The maintenance of the electrical system consists of the application of some general rules as follows:

  1. the current absorbed by the compressor must be compared to the rated value. Normally the value of the absorbed current is lower than the rated value that corresponds to the absorption of the full load compressor at the maximum operating conditions;
  2. at least once every three months all the security checks must be made to verify their functionality. Each appliance, with aging, can change its point of operation and this must be monitored to adjust it or replace it. The pump interlocks and flow switches must be checked to make sure that they interrupt the control circuit if they intervene.

7.2.3 Service and limited warranty
All units are factorytested and guaranteed for 12 months as of the first startup or 18 months as of delivery.
These units have been developed and constructed according to high quality standards ensuring years of failurefree operation. However, the unit requires maintenance even during the warranty period, from the time of installation and not just from the commissioning date. We strongly advise stipulating a maintenance contract with a service authorized by the manufacturer to ensure efficient and problemfree service, thanks to the expertise and experience of our personnel.
It must be borne in mind that operating the unit in an inappropriate manner, beyond its operating limits or not performing proper maintenance according to this manual can void the warranty.
Observe the following points, to conform to warranty limits:

  1. The unit cannot function beyond the specified limits;
  2. The electrical power supply must be within the voltage limits and without voltage harmonics or sudden changes;
  3. The threephase power supply must not have an unbalance between phases exceedi ng 3%. The unit must stay turned off until the electrical problem has been solved;
  4. No safety device, either mechanical, electrical or electronic must be disabled or overridden;
  5. The water used for filling the water circuit must be clean and suitably treated. A mechanical filter must be installed at the point closest to the BPHE inlet;
  6. The value of the BPHE water flow must be included in the declared range for the unit considered, refer to the CSS selection software.

Table 10 – Standard Routine Maintenance Plan
Notes:

  1. Monthly activities include all the weekly ones.

  2. The annual (or early season) activities include all weekly and monthly activities.

  3. Daily reading of the operating values of the unit allows maintaining high observational standards.

  4. Check for any dissolved metals

  5. Clean condenser banks with clean water and water heat exchangers with appropriate chemicals. Particles and fibres could clog up the exchangers, especially for water exchangers pay attention if water rich in calcium carbonate is used. An increase in pressure drops or a decrease in thermal efficiency means that the heat exchangers are clogged.
    In environments with a high concentration of airborne particles, it might be necessary to clean the condenser bank more often.

  6. Units placed or stored in a Highly Aggressive Environment for long time without operation are still subject to those routine maintenance steps.
