  • Page 29: High-Pressure Safety (Type-Approved Pressure Limiter)

    2.14.2 High-pressure safety (type-approved pressure limiter) A type-approved pressure limiter (according to EN 12263) with automatic reset is installed on the compressor. It is a normally-closed CS3 switch from Alco Controls. The pressure cut-out is set to 123 bar and the cut-in to 117 bar. The tightening torque to the thread connection on the pipe is 15 Nm.
  • Page 30: Pressure Relief Valve - Liquid Receiver

    2.14.5 Pressure relief valve – Liquid receiver There are two pressure relief valves (90 bar) on the liquid receiver, connected on a changeover valve. In case of refrigerant blow-off, this allows for easy replacement of the relief device without interruption of unit operation by using the second valve. Typically, after a blow-off event, the relief devices are not 100 % tight anymore.
  • Page 31: Oil Management Device - Om5 Traxoil

    2.15 Oil management device – OM5 TraxOil™ The compressors in the Copeland CO scroll refrigeration units are equipped with an Copeland OM5 TraxOil oil level management system. This device is intended to prevent the compressors from operating with insufficient oil by opening a valve which allows the oil to flow from the oil separator to the compressor.
  • Page 32: Installation

    Oil dilution! Bearing malfunction! Turn on the crankcase heater 12 hours before starting the unit. Copeland CO scroll refrigeration units are delivered with a holding charge of dry air.

    4) Be sure tube fitting inner surface and tube outer surface are clean prior to assembly. 5) Both tubes are extended from the refrigeration unit housing, therefore Copeland recommends isolating the housing by using a wet cloth on the copper tubing.
  • Page 37: Pressure Testing At Suction Side

    This must be decided by the electricity network supplier or by the electrician company which provides the electrical connection. Copeland CO scroll refrigeration units can cause earth leakage currents, both AC and DC, due to the presence of an inverter and an EMC filter in the system. An AC/DC-sensitive Residual Current Device (RCD) should be used on the power supply side.
  • Page 38: Power Supply Connections

    Additionally, the voltage drop and line temperatures must be considered for cable selection. The nominal power and maximum current are shown in Table 19 hereunder: Nominal power Maximum current Unit Power supply (kW) OME-16T-TEM 13.85 3 / N / PE OMTE-37T-TEM 24.85 50 Hz OMTE-49T-TEM 36.7...
  • Page 39: Location & Fixings

    Location & fixings IMPORTANT Dust and dirt contamination! Unit life reduction! The unit should always be installed in a location where clean airflow is ensured. External fouling of the gas cooler fins leads to high condensing temperatures or pressures and will reduce the lifetime of the unit.
  • Page 40: Figure 50: Unit Mounted On Concrete Slab With Anti-Vibration Pads

    Ideally, the unit should be mounted level on a solid concrete slab with anti-vibration pads between unit feet and concrete as shown in Figure 50. Figure 50: Unit mounted on concrete slab with anti-vibration pads Select an installation location that meets the following conditions: 1) The location needs to be selected in such a way that nobody is disturbed by the airflow and the sound of the unit.
  • Page 41: Air Duct Connection

    Elbows and other components such as diameter reductions on the air duct route have a much bigger influence on total pressure drop and air flow – see table below for OME-16T. This table must not be used for units OMTE-37 / 49 / 64T.
  • Page 42: Transport Bracket

    Transport bracket The components in the compressor compartment are fixed to the unit housing with an orange bracket. This fixation prevents damage to the components during the transport of the unit. This orange bracket must be removed before the first start of the unit. The bracket is located in the upper right corner of the compressor compartment.
  • Page 43: Start-Up & Operation

    Start-up & operation WARNING High pressure! Risk of personal injury! Always keep sufficient distance from the pressure relief valve to avoid serious injury in the event of a sudden pressure release. WARNING Hot surfaces! Burning! Do not touch the top of the compressor or discharge line as their surfaces can reach high temperatures both during operation and at standstill.
  • Page 44: Evacuation

    Evacuation IMPORTANT The evacuation procedure is based upon achieving an actual system vacuum standard and is NOT TIME DEPENDENT! The installation has to be evacuated with a vacuum pump before commissioning. Proper evacuation reduces residual moisture to 50 ppm. The installation of adequately sized access valves at the furthest point from the compressor in the suction and liquid lines is advisable.
  • Page 45: Charging Procedure

    The system is sufficiently charged when the liquid level in the receiver is between the lower and the middle sight glass. In order to prevent system overcharge for high ambient temperatures Copeland recommends charging the liquid receiver only up to 60 % considering a typical piping length of 30 meters.

  • Page 50: Replacing A Compressor

    As a general guide, it is advisable to do this at least once every two months. As a general rule and for a clean environment Copeland recommends that the fins be cleaned with liquid detergent diluted with clean water. The refrigeration unit has a well-designed chassis and any cleaning solution should be able to drain away.
  • Page 51: Electrical Installation

    All refrigeration units will generate some degree of vibration. Copeland CO scroll refrigeration units are no exception. Over time, due to these slight vibrations and to temperature fluctuations within the unit housing, electrical terminations might become loose.
  • Page 52: Pressure Switch Cs3

    ▪ Conduct a leak test to verify tight connection between PRV, changeover valve and liquid receiver. Figure 58: Changeover valve – Shaft in open position Figure 59: Changeover valve – Shaft in closed position Pressure switch CS3 The CS3 pressure switch is TÜV EN 12263-approved and can withstand 2 million cycles.
