  • Page 9: Operation And Main Components

    PERATION OMPONENTS 2.1 R EFRIGERANT CIRCUIT QBS chillers use a vapour-compression cycle in a refrigerant circuit that essentially consists of the following components: evaporator, compressor, condenser, lamination device (capillary tube). Evaporator: heat exchanger (tube and fins) to enable heat exchange between the water and the refrigerant liquid without them coming into contact with each other.
  • Page 10: Control Of The Water Temperature

    2.5 C ONTROL OF THE WATER TEMPERATURE The purpose of the chiller is to maintain the temperature of the water produced within a desired interval as the load on the system varies; this is handled by an electronic controller and a temperature probe that turn the compressors on and off appropriately (see also sections 5.3) .
  • Page 11: Spare Parts

    2.8 S PARE PARTS Spare parts list is printed on a dedicated sticker applied inside the chiller. On this sticker each spare part is identified with its ID Number and related Spare Part Number. Here below the cross reference table between ID Number and exploded drawings Ref. With their description and quantity installed inside chillers.

    • The solidity of the support surface; • Avoid any obstacles to the flow of the fan which could cause the recirculation of air to the condenser; • Avoid the possible reflection of sound waves: (do not install in narrow or tight spaces); •...
  • Page 14: Recommended Water System

    We recommend an extraordinary cleaning of the mechanical water filter after the machine has been running for the first week (also see Chapter 8 Maintenance, inspections and periodic checks). Warning! No naked flames should be used during water connection operations, in the vicinity of or inside the unit.
