Actions After Abnormal Shutdown; Actions After Power Interruption; Periodic Scheduled Maintenance; Every Day Of Operation - Carrier 16JT Series Start Up & Operation Manual

Actions After Abnormal Shutdown —
stop occurs automatically when any of the safety devices in
Table 8 sense a condition which might be potentially dam-
aging to the chiller. When this happens the steam valve closes
completely, the alarm buzzer sounds, and the type of prob-
lem is indicated by one of the three fault lights. Also, both
the Stop and Run lights will be on.
The buzzer can be silenced and the circuit reset for restart
by depressing the Stop button, but this should be done only
after noting which fault light is on; or the alarm buzzer stop
button may be depressed to silence the buzzer while the con-
trol circuit remains in a shutdown alarm mode for trouble-
shooting. If the fault is a type which does not allow shut-
down dilution, the condition should be corrected and the chiller
either restarted, or started and stopped for normal

PERIODIC SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE

Normal preventive maintenance for 16JT absorption chill-
ers requires periodic, scheduled inspection and service. Each
item in the list below is detailed in the Maintenance Proce-
dures section.

Every Day of Operation

1. Log machine and sytem readings.
2. Exhaust purge.

Every Month of Operation

1. Determine absorber loss.
2. Determine noncondensable accumulation rate.
3. Check capacity control adjustment.

Every 2 Months of Operation

1. Check low-temperature cutout.
2. Check Cycle-Guard™ operation.

Every 6 Months of Operation

1. Check refrigerant charge.
2. Check octyl alcohol.

dilution, as quickly as possible to avoid solution crystalli-
zation when the machine cools down.
Actions After Power Interruption —
power is interrupted during operation, the chiller stops im-
mediately without the normal shutdown sequence and dilu-
tion. The capacity control valve might be open so the steam
supply valve should be closed immediately.
Solution crystallization can occur if the concentration is
high (e.g., chiller was operating with a relatively large load).
If so, depress the Start button to restart the machine as soon
as possible after the power is restored. The machine will not
restart automatically when power is recovered. If the chiller
cannot be operated because of crystallization, follow the de-
crystallization instructions in the Maintenance Procedures sec-
tion, page 40.

1. Inspect hermetic pumps.
2. Filter or regenerate the solution if necessary.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES

Log Sheets —
Readings of machine and system pressure-
temperature conditions should be recorded daily to aid the
operator in recognizing both normal and abnormal machine
conditions. The record also aids in planning a preventive main-
tenance schedule and in diagnosing machine problems. A typi-
cal log sheet is shown in Fig. 24.
