Mechanical Installation Shipping The stability of the machine during shipping must be ensured. If the machine is shipped with a wooden cross-plank on its base, the cross-plank must be removed only after the final destination has been reached. Responsibility The manufacturer declines all responsibility, present and future, for any damage to persons, animals or property caused by negligence of operators failing to follow the installation and maintenance instructions in this manual.
Fig. 1 - Lifting the unit WARNING Both the lifting ropes and the spacing bar and/or scales must be strong enough to support the machine safely. Please check the unit’s weight on the machine’s nameplate. The weights shown in the "Technical data" tables in the "General Information" chapter refer to standard units. Some specific machines might have accessories that increase their overall weight (heat recovery, etc.) WARNING The machine must be lifted with the utmost attention and care.
Make sure to provide a strong and solid foundation to reduce noise and vibration as much as possible.The water in the system must be particularly clean and all traces of oil or rust must be removed. A mechanical water filter must be installed on the machine’s inlet piping.
ATTENTION Install a mechanical filter on the inlet to each heat exchanger. Failure to install a mechanical filter allows solid particles and/or welding slag to enter the exchanger. Installation of a filter with a mesh size not exceeding 0.5 – 1 mm in diameter is advised.

CAUTION Use copper conductors only. Use of conductors in any material other than copper could cause overheating or corrosion at the connection points and damage the unit. To avoid interference, all control wires must be installed separately from the power cables. Use separate electrical conduits for this purpose.
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) Thermal-magnetic 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 4-20 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.
After the equipment is correctly installed, leak tested and evacuated , it can be charged with R134a refrigerant and started under the supervision of Daikin authorized technician. Charge will be added until the liquid line sight glass is clear, with no bubbles flowing into the expansion valve. Total...
Fig. 8 - Condenser Located above Chiller Unit Fig. 9 - Condenser Located below Chiller Unit 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 the added friction loss of elbows, valves, etc.
Note: When calculating the equivalent length, do not include piping of the chiller unit. Only field piping must be considered. Table 2 - Equivalent Lengths (in meters) Line Size Angle Short Long OD (inches) Valve Radius Radius EL 1-1/8 1-3/8 10.1 1-5/8 10.4...
Total friction loss for discharge line from 20 to 40 kPa is considered good design. Carefully consideration must be given for sizing each section of piping so that gas velocities are sufficient at all operating conditions to carry oil. If the velocity in a vertical discharge riser is to low, considerable oil can collect in the riser and horizontal header, causing compressor to lose oil and it can result in compressor damage due to lack of oil.
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 start-up sequence, operation, shutdown sequence and operation of all the safety devices. During the machine’s initial start-up phase, a technician authorized by the manufacturer is available to answer any questions and to give instructions as to the correct operating procedures.
These condensers, with partial heat recovery tubes, have crowns with special couplings by which they can be connected to the hot water pipes. When partial recovery is activated, condenser performance is improved since the condenser temperature is lowered further in as much as the surface dedicated to heat discharge is greater. After passing through the cooling tubes, the gas starts to condense in the central part of the condenser.

Compressor The single-screw compressor is of the semi-hermetic type with an asyncronous three-phase, two-pole motor which is directly splined on the main shaft. The suction gas from the evaporator cools the electric motor before entering the suction ports. There are temperature sensors inside the electric motor which are completely covered by the coil winding and constantly monitor motor temperature.
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 suction chamber.
Pre-startup 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 holders 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 factory-supplied), 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 thermal-magnetic 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 built-in 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 water-flow failure alarm. Seasonal shutdown Turn switches Q1 and Q2 to the Off (or 0) position to shut down the compressors, using the normal pump-down 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 ATTENTION...

Shut down the relevant compressor by turning the Q1 or Q2 switch to Off. Wait until the compressor has stopped and close the valve located on the liquid line. Once the compressor has stopped, place a label on the compressor start-up switch, to prevent undesired start-ups.
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. DO NOT USE refrigerants other than R134a. WARNING The addition or removal of refrigerant gas must be carried out in compliance with the laws and regulations in force. 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 factory-equipped 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. Well-calibrated 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 non- routine maintenance on the machine.
