CHECKING THE WATER CIRCUIT

The units are equipped with water inlets and water outlets for connection to a chilled water circuit and to a hot water circuit. These circuits must be provided by a licensed  technician and must comply with all relevant European and national regulations.

WARNING The unit is only to be used in a closed water system. Application in an open water circuit can lead to excessive corrosion of the water piping.

Before continuing the installation of the unit, check the following points:

Additional components not delivered with the unit

1. A circulation pump must be provided in such a way that it discharges the water directly into the heat exchanger.
2. Drain taps must be provided at all low points of the system to permit complete drainage of the circuit during maintenance or in case of shut down.
3. Anti-vibration systems in all water piping connected to the chiller are recommended to avoid straining the piping and transmitting vibration and noise.

Additional water piping delivered with the unit
All additional water piping must be installed on the system according to the piping diagram as mentioned in the operation manual. The flowswitch must be connected as  described on the wiring diagram. See also chapter “Before starting”.

1. The flowswitch must be installed in the water outlet pipe of the evaporator to prevent the unit from operating at a water flow which is too low.
   WARNING It is very important to install the flowswitch as shown in the figure. Observe the position of the flowswitch in relation to the direction of the water  flow. If the flowswitch is mounted in another position, the unit is not properly protected against freezing.
   A specific terminal is provided in the switch box for the electrical connection of the flowswitch. Refer to the wiring diagram****

2. Shut-off valves must be installed at the unit so that normal servicing of the water filter can be accomplished without draining the complete system.

3. Air purge valves must be provided at all high points of the system. The vents should be located at points which are easily accessible for servicing.

4. The water filter must be installed in front of the unit for removing dirt from the water to prevent damage to the unit or malfunctioning of the evaporator or condenser.  The water filter must be cleaned on a regular base.

Table 3-Water quality specifications

CONNECTING THE WATER CIRCUIT

The evaporator and condenser are foreseen of GAS male pipe thread for the water inlet and outlet (refer to the outlook diagram). Evaporator and condenser water connections are to be made in accordance with the outlook diagram, respecting the water in- and outlet.

If air, moisture, or dust gets in the water circuit, problems may occur. Therefore, always consider the following when connecting the water circuit:

1. Use clean pipes only.
2. Hold the pipe end downwards when removing burrs.
3. Cover the pipe end when inserting it through wall so that no dust and dirt enter.

WARNING Use a good thread sealant for the sealing of the connections. The sealing must be able to withstand the pressures and temperatures of the system, it must also be  resistant to the used glycol in the water.
The external surface of the water pipes must be adequately protected against corrosion.

WATER CHARGE, FLOW AND QUALITY

To assure proper operation of the unit a minimum water volume is required in the system and the water flow through the
evaporator must be within the operation range as specified in the table below.
Table 4- Water flow operation range

WARNING The water pressure should not exceed the maximum working pressure of 10 bar.
WARNING Provide adequate safeguards in the water circuit to make sure that the water pressure will never exceed the maximum allowable working pressure.

PIPING INSULATION

The complete water circuit, inclusive all piping, must be insulated to prevent condensation and reduction of the cooling capacity.

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 cleaning 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.

Damage caused by freezing is excluded from the warranty, therefore Daikin Applied Europe S.p.A. declines all responsibility.

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 start-up sequence, operation, shutdown sequence and operation of all the safety devices.
During the unit initial start-up 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 R41 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.

WARNING 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 insulating 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 onboard documentation delivered to the end user.

WARNING 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

Table 6-R410A Pressure / temperature table

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 (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 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.
• 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 lifetime. 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 the  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.

WARNING All electrical maintenance activities must be performed 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.

Table 7 lists all Maintenance activities for standard applications and standard environment.
Table 8 lists all Maintenance activities for critical applications or highly aggressive environment.
