Vibrations and frequencies

Check the system carefully to detect any abnormal vi-
bration, check particularly pipelines and capillary tubes.
In case of strong vibrations, take mechanical meas-
ures: e.g. use pipe clamps or install vibration dampers.
NOTICE
!
!
Risk of burst pipes and leakages on the com-
pressor and system components!
Avoid strong vibrations!

Checking the operating data

• Evaporation temperature
• Suction gas temperature
• Condensing temperature
• Discharge gas temperature
– min. 20 K above condensing temperature
– min. 30 K above condensing temperature for
R407C, R407F and R22
– max. 120°C on the outside of the discharge gas
line
• Oil temperature directly under the oil sight glass
• Cycling rate
• Current values
• Voltage
▶ Prepare data protocol.
Application limits, see BITZER SOFTWARE, manual
SH-170 and brochure SP-171 (CSH) / SP-172 (CSW).
4.6.7 Particular notes on safe compressor and
system operation
Analysis show that compressor failures are most often
due to an inadmissible operating mode. This applies
especially to damage resulting from lack of lubrication:
• Function of the expansion valve – observe the manu-
facturer's notes!
– Position the temperature sensor correctly at the
suction gas line and fasten it.
SB-170-10
– When using a liquid suction line heat exchanger:
Position the sensor as usual after the evaporator
and not after the heat exchanger.
– Ensure sufficiently high suction gas superheat,
while also taking into account the minimum dis-
charge gas temperatures.
– Stable operating mode under all operating and
load conditions (also part-load, summer/winter op-
eration).
– Solid liquid at the expansion valve inlet, during
ECO operation already before entering the liquid
subcooler.
• Avoid refrigerant migration from the high-pressure
side to the low-pressure side or into the compressor
during long shut-off periods!
– Always maintain oil heater operation when the
system is at standstill. This is valid for all applica-
tions.
When installing the system in zones where the
temperatures are low, it may be necessary to in-
sulate the oil separator. At compressor start, the
oil temperature, that is measured under the oil
sight glass, should be 15 .. 20 K above the ambi-
ent temperature.
– Automatic sequence change for systems with sev-
eral refrigerating circuits (approximately every 2
hours).
– Mount an additional check valve in the discharge
gas line if no temperature and pressure compens-
ation is reached even after long standstill times.
– If needed, mount a time and pressure-dependant
controlled pump down system or liquid separators
on the suction side – particularly for high refriger-
ant charges and/or when the evaporator may be-
come hotter than the suction gas line or the com-
pressor.
• For further information about pipe layout, see
manual SH-170.
Information
In the case of refrigerants with low isentropic ex-
ponent (e.g. R134a), a heat exchanger between
the suction gas line and the liquid line may have
a positive effect on the system's operating mode
and coefficient of performance.
Arrange the temperature sensor of the expan-
sion valve as described above.
