4.3 Hydraulic data
4.3.1 Water volume
The machine electronic control, to protect the electrical motor, limits hourly
start up of the compressor.
This operation creates oscillations of the water temperature in the draw-off
point, affecting plant efficiency.
For a correct operation, the water volume must comply with the following
formula:
M > 9,45 x k x n/N x (Qf – q)
M = Minimum water content (I);
k = Factor that takes into account the different water temperature value
between the inlet and outlet of the evaporator or condenser;
n = Partialisation coefficient (n = 1 unit up to 4 compressors; n = 2 units
with more than 4 compressors);
N = N. of compressors;
Qf = Cooling power or heating power (kW);
q = Permanent thermal load in the system (kW), (q = 0 if the value is
unknown).

6.1.1 Electrical
Verify that the voltage on terminals L1, L2 and L3 is that shown on the plate
of the unit (tolerance allowed) ±5%, which can be checked with a tester. If
voltage changes occur frequently, please contact our technical department to
choose suitable protections.
Verify the complete tightness of the fuse holder caps.
Verify that the crankcase heaters (if applicable) are powered correctly: to
check whether the heaters are working properly, check that the bottom of the
compressor is at a temperature of 10 to 15 °C higher than the ambient
temperature.
Power and check the correct direction of rotation for the three-phase version,
which should be clockwise looking at the motor from the fan side. Otherwise,
invert any two of the phase conductors.
6.1.2 Hydraulic
Make sure that the water circuit has been previously cleaned: it is
recommended to wash the water circuit via by-passing the unit and then check
the cleanliness of the system filter.
The machines are shipped with open vents and drains, which must be closed
during installation when filling the water circuit. Labels indicate their
positions.
In models with a hydronic kit, the water drain cap of the pump has been
removed, in order to drain the water contained in it and to avoid freezing
problems during the winter season. The cap is inside the envelope containing
all documents of the unit.
Make sure that the hydraulic system has been bled, thereby eliminating any
residual air. The operation must be performed by loading gradually and opening
the venting devices set up by the installer in the upper part of the system.
If you are using glycol water you can move the antifreeze set-point. The value
must be equal to the value of the freezing temperature of the fluid plus 6K.
6.1.3 Cooling
Make sure that the pressure gauges (when present) indicate an adequate
pressure. Pressure gauges can be fitted with shut-off valves. They should only
be opened when necessary and once readings are taken, they must be closed
again.
Check that there is no refrigerant leak, possibly using a leak detector.
6.2 First start-up or restart after long inactivity
6.2.1 Start-up
Activate the machine according to that described in the relative command
section.
6.2.1.1 Checks during operation
Check that the machine does not generate abnormal noise or excessive
vibrations.
After a few hours of operation verify that the crown of the liquid and
humidity indicator indicates a dry circuit.
Verify that the machine operates within the optimum working range.
Verify that there is no excessive presence of bubbles in the liquid indicator.
If there are this indicates low refrigerant.
A few minutes after starting the compressors, during the summer operating
cycle, make sure that the condensation temperature is> 5 ± 2K with respect to
the condenser outlet water temperature and that the evaporation temperature is
5 ± 2K lower than the
evaporator outlet water temperature.
Verify that the overheating temperature of the refrigerant is between 5 and
7K. To verify:
– Measure the temperature with a contact thermometer placed on the intake pipe
of the condenser .
– Read the temperature indicated on the pressure gauge connected to the inlet.
– The difference between these temperatures provides the overheating value.
Verify that the subcooling temperature of the refrigerant is between 4 and 8K.
To verify:
– Measure the temperature with a contact thermometer placed on the outlet pipe
from the condenser.
– Read the temperature indicated on a pressure gauge connected to the liquid
outlet of the condenser.
– The difference between these temperatures provides the subcooling value.
The tests referred to above can be performed using the pressure gauges
supplied with the unit (accessories). Once the checks are complete, close the
shut-off valves of the pressure gauges.
6.2.2 Pump release procedure Before starting the pump, check that
the moving parts rotate freely.
To release the pump:
Remove the fan cover from the seat of the rear motor cover.
Use a screwdriver on the present slot on the motor shaft from the fan side.
In case of blockage, turn the screwdriver by tapping it lightly with a hammer.
When the operations are completed, reassemble the components in reverse order.
6.3 Shut-down
6.3.1 Temporary shut-down
Disable the machine according to that described in the relative command
section.
Do not disconnect the power supply by
acting on the disconnecting switch on board the machine or the main switch of
the system. If no voltage is present, the crankcase heaters and any anti-
freeze heaters cannot work, thereby, posing a risk of freezing.
6.3.2 Shut-down for long periods
Not using the unit for a long period of time requires the following operations
to be performed:
Disable the unit in any mode of operation it may be, from the control panel.
Set the remote switch to “OFF” (if present) after having turned off the unit.
Disable the internal terminal units by setting the switch of each unit to
“off”.
Set the main switch of the system to ”off”.
Close the water valves.
If, during the period of inactivity the
temperature drops below zero, the system must be fully empties or topped up
with antifreeze liquid.
6.4 Flow rate calibration
Once the pump has started, verify that the fluid flow rate of the utilities is
within the expected values for the unit.
To verify:
Use pressure gauges set before and after the circulating pump to measure the
pressure difference.
Verify that the pressure difference measured is equal to the pressure drop in
the system, including the heat exchanger.
To correct:
Turn the valve installed downstream of the pump to increase or decrease the
pressure difference.
Mark the position of each valve to reposition it in the same position after
closing for maintenance operations.
If there are no pressure gauges:
Verify the temperature difference between the utility fluid input and output
when the unit is operating regularly (all compressors on).
The difference in water temperature between input and output must be between
4° and 6°C:
– If it is below 4°C, the water flow rate is too high: slightly close the
discharge valve of the pump.
– If it is more than 6°C, verify the pressure drops in the water circuit.
For units equipped with two pumps, you
will have to repeat the calibration for each pump.
