Fig. 37 — Correct Motor Rotation
Check Chiller Operating Condition —
sure that chiller temperatures, pressures, water flows, and oil and
refrigerant levels indicate the system is functioning properly.
Instruct the Customer Operator —
erator(s) understand all operating and maintenance procedures.
Point out the various chiller parts and explain their function as
part of the complete system.
COOLER-CONDENSER — Float chamber, relief valves,
refrigerant charging valve, temperature sensor locations, pres-
sure transducer locations, Schrader fittings, waterboxes and
tubes, and vents and drains.
OPTIONAL PUMPOUT STORAGE TANK AND PUMP-
OUT SYSTEM — Transfer valves and pumpout system,
refrigerant charging and pumpdown procedure, and relief
devices.
MOTOR COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLY — Guide vane actu-
ator, transmission, motor cooling system, oil cooling system,
temperature and pressure sensors, oil sight glasses, integral oil
pump, isolatable oil filter, extra oil and motor temperature
sensors, synthetic oil, and compressor serviceability.
MOTOR COMPRESSOR LUBRICATION SYSTEM —
Oil pump, cooler filter, oil heater, oil charge and specification,
operating and shutdown oil level, temperature and pressure,
and oil charging connections.
CONTROL SYSTEM — CCN and LOCAL start, reset,
menu, softkey functions, ICVC operation, occupancy schedule,
set points, safety controls, and auxiliary and optional controls.
AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT — Disconnects, separate elec-
trical sources, pumps, and cooling tower.
DESCRIBE CHILLER CYCLES — Refrigerant, motor cool-
ing, lubrication, and oil reclaim.
REVIEW MAINTENANCE — Scheduled, routine, and ex-
tended shutdowns, importance of a log sheet, importance of
water treatment and tube cleaning, and importance of maintain-
ing a leak-free chiller.
SAFETY DEVICES AND PROCEDURES — Electrical dis-
connects, relief device inspection, and handling refrigerant.
CHECK OPERATOR KNOWLEDGE — Start, stop, and
shutdown procedures, safety and operating controls, refrigerant
and oil charging, and job safety.
REVIEW THE START-UP OPERATION, AND MAINTE-
NANCE MANUAL.
NOTE: Manuals and notebooks should not be stored under the
VFD power module as they will block airflow into the power
module cooling fan. Remove the manuals if they were placed
under the power module during shipping.

Operator Duties

1. Become familiar with the chiller and related equipment
2. Prepare the system for start-up, start and stop the chiller,
3. Maintain a log of operating conditions and document any
4. Inspect the equipment, make routine adjustments, and
5. Protect the system from damage during shutdown periods.
6. Maintain the set point, time schedules, and other PIC III
Prepare the Chiller for Start-Up —
described in the Initial Start-Up section, page 70.
