GENERAL INFORMATION INTRODUCTION Remcor “CH” Series Refrigerated Recirculating Water Chillers are designed to provide a continuous flow of clean cooling water at a constant temperature and to handle a variety of closed loop and tank cooling applica- tions. The CH consists of a refrigeration system with associated operating controls housed in a sturdy sheet metal cabinet. A standard pump and reservoir package provides a complete self-contained water cooling and circulat- ing system. CH Chillers a

INSTALLATION LOCATION Install the Chiller indoors in a well ventilated area where ambient temperatures will never fall below 40F or rise above 110F. To obtain optimum cooling capacity, the ambient temperature should be 80F or below. Standard CH Chiller have air-cooled condensers. On air-cooled units it is important that the air intake and dis- charge are not obstructed. Avoid hot air discharge from other equipment or enclosed areas where heat build-up could cause a significant rise in ambien

ELECTRICAL All wiring must conform to the National Electric Code and any applicable local codes. The Chiller must be PERMANENTLY wired by means of electrical conduit to a properly fused disconnect of proper amperage or wired to a properly rated power cord and plugged into an outlet with the appropriate disconnect and amperage rating. The electrical junction box located on the upper rear of the Chiller, includes a four-terminal strip for power supply connections The DATA PLATE, located beside th

Chiller with Reservoir The reservoir can be filled by removing the water fill cap located on the upper rear of the Chiller (See Fluid Rec- ommendations page). After ensuring that the drain valve is closed, fill the reservoir via the full port with clean water until the water level sight glass on the front of the unit indicates “FULL” the fill cap should then be rein- stalled before operation begins. Auto Refill Option If the Chiller is provided with the Auto Refill Option, install 1/4–inch or 1/

START UP WATER FLOW START-UP Chiller with Pump It is important to check the pump rotation on the three phase units. Remove the lower side panel to expose the pump. Turn the pump power switch to the “ON” position for a few seconds. Observe the motor shaft to ensure that it is turning in the direction indicated by the arrow located on the pump housing. If the rotation is incorrect, reverse two of the three incoming power supply leads at the terminal strip. After changing the leads, check the pump

MAINTENANCE CAUTION: Disconnect electrical power before performing any of the following maintenance procedures. The Chiller will require very little normal maintenance. 1. On AIR-COOLED Chillers, the condenser fins should be cleaned by blowing compressed air through the condenser from the fan side as required to eliminate any dirt or debris that may accumulate over time. This can severely reduce the performance of the Chiller. Cleanable air filters are available as an option. Contact the facto

SERVICE When servicing a Chiller, it is important to note the information contained on the data plate located in the upper rear of the unit. If technical assistance is needed, the phone technician will need the Serial Number of your Chiller. That informa- tion is found on the Data Plate along with the model number, voltage requirements and refrigerant information. The Serial Number is also needed when replacement parts are being ordered or for any warranty claims. REMCOR PRODUCTS COMPANY GLENDAL

SAFETY CONTROLS Each Chiller is provided with three standard safety controls. These controls are arranged in series in the control circuit to automatically shut down the unit in the event that a condition exists which could be harmful to the re- frigeration system components. This section includes a brief description of each control, its location and some troubleshooting hints that may be helpful. HIGH PRESSURE CONTROL (HPC) This control prevents system operation in the event that the high side
