KT1 series chillers – Installation and Operation manual 1.2 Site requirements • Hard, level surface. Ideally smooth to allow freewheeling of castors, which are designed for indoor use. • Clean, dust free environment. Air-cooled chillers move large volumes of air, and large amounts of air-borne contamination will result in fouling of the condenser, reducing the capacity of the unit and in extreme cases causing a system shut-down.
ATC’s standard warranty terms are Return to Base (RTB) – issues with chillers are often easily solvable over the phone or email, or by reviewing ATC’s technical guidance on the web and in the product manual. On occasion, at the discretion of ATC, goods may be serviced on site FOC or a service loan unit may be supplied.
The system should be flushed clean with tap water to remove all traces of cleaner prior to filling the system. All connections should be made using either the ATC ‘easy clamp’ or a jubilee type clip. Where threaded or compression type fluid joints are to be made, always use a suitable jointing compound such as PTFE tape.
Caution: Always use ATC recommended fluids in your K series chiller. Never use other anti-freeze mixtures, as they may corrode your application and will damage the K series pump seals.
