  • Page 47: Periodic Maintenance

    To use the Chiller to its optimum performance, it requires the purging, refrigerant blow down, absorbent control, and management of combustion equipment, etc. We recommend that you make a maintenance contract with Carrier service agent. 4-2-1. Purging The non condensable gas of the machine inside, not only decreases cooling capacity but also has a bad influence on the life of the machine.
  • Page 48 Press "▲" key on the operation board once to indicate 17. purge tank pressure (refer to section 3-5-3) and confirm whether the indicated value drops. If it does not drop, follow the procedure e), f), and g), and contact Carrier service agent.
  • Page 49 (3) When the solution level becomes invisible, close the blow valve tightly. The above is the blow down procedure. Repeat it a few times as necessary. As for the refrigerant blow down, please make a maintenance contract with Refrigerant blow valve Carrier service agent. Fig.4-2...
  • Page 50: Water Treatment

    4-3. WATER TREATMENT The water treatment is very important to the Chiller. As the water treatment requires technical knowledge, please consult Carrier service agent. 4-3-1. Water Treatment for Chilled water and Cooling water The cooling water of an open-type recycling cooling tower lowers the temperature of the cooling water using vaporized latent heat, and is reused.
  • Page 52 [Note 1] Each item of the standard values may cause the failure due to corrosion or scale and if any item deviates from the standard value, it is assumed that corrosion or scale tends to be caused, therefore, these should be periodically managed. [Note 2] As the range of the water quality which may become usable if the water is processed differs depending on the chemicals to be used, it is not given here.
  • Page 53 4-3-2. Water treatment for long term shut down Perform the following treatment during long term shut down with no-circulation of chilled/hot water, cooling water in the Chiller. Please consult Carrier service agent for the the details. (1) Cooling water Wet lay up usually. (Keep the cooling water full in the Chiller.) In case the freezing of cooling water is likely to happen, drain it from the Chiller.
