Section 1.0 – Introduction GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS Mueller® E-Star OESE condensing units are engineered to maximize the energy efficiency and cooling capacity of a milk cooling system. Custom and specialized components consist of the following: A quiet, energy-efficient Copeland® “ZB” scroll refrigeration compressor, designed for commercial refrigeration service rather than air conditioning, provides improved performance over the entire milk cooling temperature range.
TECHNICAL SUPPORT This manual provides basic installation and operating information for Mueller E-Star OESE condensing units. Please contact your local Paul Mueller Company Sales and Service Representative if you require additional technical assistance pertaining to installation or operating procedures. Manufacturer’s support is available by contacting the following:...
IMPORTANT: Equipment used to move or lift this equipment must be rated for the weight of the equipment. See Table 1 for equipment weight. LOCATION When choosing a location for the Mueller E-Star OESE condensing unit, consider these items: • Environment: The unit must be located where it is protected from extreme temperatures of –30°F (–34.4°C) and below or 115°F (46.1°C) and above.

Connecting high-voltage control to this circuit will cause equipment failure and a possible electrical hazard. The control circuit can be modified for high-voltage supply in installations that do not utilize a Mueller low-voltage refrigeration control. Refer to Section 7.0 for details.
Section 3.0 – Refrigerant Charging EPA REFRIGERANT REGULATIONS Mueller E-Star OESE condensing units are designed to operate with R-507 refrigerant. R-507 is specified by the ASHRAE Standard 34 Safety Classification as an A-1 refrigerant with low-flame propagation and low toxicity.
When refrigerants come in contact with an open flame or a high heat source, dangerous gases will form. This is characterized by a strong acidic odor. Immediately vacate the area and ventilate prior to reentry. Mueller E-Star OESE 3.5 and 5 HP HFC Condensing Unit Installation and Operation Manual, Part No. 8828747...
Section 4.0 – Operating Features REFRIGERANT CYCLE Mueller E-Star OESE condensing units utilize an thermal expansion valve (TEV) that controls the evaporator’s superheat. The expansion valve must be field adjusted to maintain the milk coolor’s evaporator’s superheat at 4–6°F (2.2–3.3°C) or the chiller’s superheat at 10–12°F (5.6–6.7°C).

10–12°F. Proper location and sizing of the thermal expansion valve is critical. Refer to Section 5.2 for the superheat adjustment procedure. An externally equalized TEV must be used on Mueller milk cooling applications. A sight glass must be installed at the TEV inlet.
• Actual suction line temperature equals 40°F. Results: 60 PSIG • 40°F – 34°F = 6°F (4.4°C – 1.1°C = 3.3°C) superheat at evaporator. Mueller E-Star OESE 3.5 and 5 HP HFC Condensing Unit Installation and Operation Manual, Part No. 8828747 Effective April 13, 2020...
IMPORTANT: The Mueller accumulator heat exchanger utilizes a special “pancake” heat exchange coil. The use of a generic (spiral) accumulator heat exchanger will severely reduce cooling capacity of the E-Star OESE condensing unit and may cause premature compressor failure. Use genuine Mueller replacement parts only.
