Determining Equivalent Line Length To determine the appropriate size for field installed liquid and discharge lines, it is first necessary to establish the equivalent length of pipe for each line. The equivalent length is the actual friction loss from the linear run of pipe plus t he added friction loss of elbows, valves, etc.
Electrical Installation General specifications CAUTION All electrical connections to the machine must be carried out in compliance with laws and regulations in force. All installation, operating and maintenance activities must be carried out by qualified personnel. Please refer to the specific wiring diagram for the machine that you have purchased and which was sent with the unit. Should the wiring diagram not appear on the machine or should it have been lost, please contact your dealer who will provide for a copy to be forwarded.
Electrical components All power and interface electrical connections are specified in the wiring diagram that is shipped with the machine. The installer must supply the following components: Power supply wires (dedicated conduit) Interconnection and interface wires (dedicated conduit) Thermalmagnetic circuit breaker of suitable size (please see electrical data). Electrical wiring Power circuit: Connect the electrical power supply cables to the terminals of the general circuit breaker on the machine’s...
Unit limitation Electrical wiring (Optional) The machine’s microprocessor allows to limit the capacity by means of two separate criteria: >Load limitation: The load can be varied by means of a 420 mA external signal from a BMS. The signal cable must be directly connected to terminals 36 and 37 of the M3 terminal board. The signal cable must be of the shielded type and must not be laid in the vicinity of the power cables, so as not to induce interference with the electronic controller.
Operation Operator’s responsibilities It is important that the operator is appropriately trained and becomes familiar with the system before operating the machine. In addition to reading this manual, the operator must study the microprocessor operating manual and the wiring diagram in order to understand startup sequence, operation, shutdown sequence and operation of all the safety devices. During the machine’s initial startup phase, a technician authorized by the manufacturer is available to answer any questions and to give instructions as to the correct operating procedures.
Description of the refrigeration cycle with partial heat recovery The lowtemperature refrigerant gas from the evaporator is drawn by the compressor through the electric motor, which is cooled by the refrigerant. It is subsequently compressed and during this process the refrigerant mixes with the oil from the oil separator.
Fig. 13 - Picture of Fr3200 compressor In the Fr3200. series compressor, access to internal parts is allowed by two covers positioned sidewise. Compression process With the singlescrew compressor the suction, compression and discharge process takes place in a continuous manner thanks to the upper satellite.
1. E 2. Suction Main rotor flutes ‘a’, ‘b’ and ‘c’ are in communication at one end with the suction chamber and are sealed at the other end by the upper satellite teeth. As the main rotor turns, the effective length of the flutes increases, thus increasing the volume open to the suction chamber.
Prestartup checks General Once the machine has been installed, use the following procedure to check that it has been done correctly: CAUTION Switch off the power supply of the machine before performing any checks. Failure to open the power switches at this stage can result in serious injury to the operator or even death. Inspect all the electrical connections to the power circuits and to the compressors, including the contactors, fuse carriers and electrical terminals and check that they are clean and well secured.
Units with external water pump Start the water pump and check the water system for any leaks; repair these if necessary. While the water pump is in operation, adjust the water flow until the design pressure drop for the evaporator is reached. Adjust the flow switch trigger point (not factorysupplied), to ensure operation of the machine within a ...
Startup procedure Turning on the machine With the general disconnecting switch Q10 closed, check that switches Q0, Q1, Q2 and Q12 are in the Off (or 0) position. Close the thermalmagnetic switch Q12 and wait for the microprocessor and the control to start. Check that the oil temperature is warm enough.
IMPORTANT If the machine is not supplied with a builtin pump, do not shut down the external pump before 3 minutes have elapsed after the last compressor has shut down. Early shutdown of the pump triggers a waterflow failure alarm. Seasonal shutdown Turn switches Q1 and Q2 to the Off (or 0) position to shut down the compressors, using the normal pumpdown procedure.
System maintenance WARNING All routine and non-routine maintenance activities on the machine must be carried out solely by qualified personnel who are familiar with the machine characteristics, operation and maintenance procedures, and who are aware of the safety requirements and risks involved. WARNING It 's absolutely forbidden to remove all the protections of the moving parts of the unit WARNING...

Replacement of the oil filter ATTENTION The lubrication system has been designed to keep most of the oil charge inside the compressor. During operation, however, a small amount of oil circulates freely in the system, conveyed by the refrigerant. The amount of replacement oil going into the compressor should therefore be equal to the quantity removed rather than the amount stated on the nameplate;...
Refrigerant charge ATTENTION The units have been designed to operate with R134A refrigerant. So DO NOT USE refrigerants other than R134A. ATTENTION When refrigerant gas is added to or removed from the system, ensure proper water flow through the evaporator for the entire charge/discharge time.
Standard Checks Temperature and pressure sensors The unit comes factoryequipped with all the sensors listed below. Periodically check that their measurements are correct by means of reference instruments (manometers, thermometers); correct the wrong readings as necessary using the microprocessor keypad. Wellcalibrated sensors ensure better efficiency for the machine and a longer lifetime. Note: Refer to the microprocessor use and maintenance manual for a complete description of applications, settings and adjustments.
Test sheet It is recommended that the following operation data are recorded periodically in order to verify correct operation of the machine over time. These data will also be extremely useful to the technicians who will be performing routine and/or nonroutine maintenance on the machine.
