SUPPLY AND DRAINS

Condenser Water Supply

Local water conditions may require treatment of the
water to inhibit scale formation to filter sediment.

Water Cooled Condenser Lines

Follow these guidelines to install water lines:
 Contact your distributor if your water pressure is
greater than 150 psi (1034kPA). A special order
condensing unit is available that allows water
pressure up to 350 psi (2413 kPA).
 Install a shutoff valve (inlet and outlet on cooling
tower or closed loop circuits) to allow isolation of the
water system.
 Water entering the condenser must not exceed 90°F
(32.2°C).
 Water flow through the condenser must not exceed
5 gallons (19 liters) per minute.
 Allow for a pressure drop of 8 psi (55 kPA) between
the condenser water inlet and outlet.
 Water exiting the condenser must not exceed 110°F
(43.3°C).
Water pressure at the condenser cannot exceed 150
psig (1034kPA) with the standard water regulating
valve. Contact your distributor if your water pressure
is greater than 150 psig (1034 kPA). A special order
condensing unit is available that allows water
pressure up to 350 psig (2413 kPA).
