2-4 Safety Devices and Interlocks High/Low Thermostat Control The high/low thermostat is a cutout device that protects the chiller system in two ways. Stage one of the thermostat shuts down the compressor if the chilled process water/glycol temperature approaches the particular mixture’s freezing point. The chilled process water/glycol pump will continue to run. The low thermostat stage one cutout temperature is factory-set at 42ºF (5.5ºC). This is correct for a supply water temperature o

Low Pressure Cutout This electro-mechanical cutout device opens the compressor control circuit if refrigeration system compressor suction pressure drops below 15 psi. It automatically resets when refrigerant suction pressure reaches 30 psi. Note: The low pressure cutout is an automatic reset device typically mounted on the compressor suction line inside the mechanical cabinet. Call a refrigeration service technician to analyze the problem and reset the control. Fan Cycling Switch Air-c

3-3 Process Water Connections All of our portable chillers have two chilled water connections. The chilled water supply, labeled “To Process” is the outlet for the chilled water leading to the process being cooled. The chilled water return, labeled “From Process” is the inlet leading from the process back into the chiller to be cooled and re-circulated. All external chilled water connections should be run full size to the process. Flow and pressure information is available on pages 58-61 i

3-7 Condenser Considerations Water-Cooled Chiller Condensers Water-cooled portable chillers can use city water or tower water as a cooling medium. Make sure that all external piping and connections supplying and discharging water to and from the condenser are full size. You’ll make two connections to the water-cooled condenser: Condenser Water In. The condenser water supply, labeled “Condenser Water In”, is located at the rear of the chiller. It is the inlet for city or tower water. Make

Remote Air-Cooled Chiller Condensers Remote air-cooled portable chillers are shipped with nitrogen holding charge and a full charge of oil (excluding the amount needed for field piping). The remote air condenser is shipped with a dry nitrogen charge. Verify that the holding charge has not been lost prior to installation. If there is no pressure, leak test the unit and repair before installing the interconnecting refrigerant piping. Read this entire section before installation. Note: Piping
