Field Insulation; Field Power Wiring - McQuay WMC Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual

Field Insulation

If the optional factory-installation of thermal insulation is not
ordered, insulation should be field installed to reduce heat
loss and prevent condensation from forming. Insulation should
cover:
• the evaporator barrel, tube sheet, and waterboxes.
• the suction line from the top of the evaporator to the
compressor inlet flange.
• the compressor support brackets welded to the
evaporator.
• the liquid line from the expansion valve to the evaporator
inlet, including the expansion valve.
• the part load balancing valve to the evaporator.
Approximate total square footage of insulation surface required
for individual packaged chillers is tabulated by evaporator code
and can be found in Table 2.

Field Power Wiring

The standard power wiring connection to Magnitude
is single point to a common disconnect switch, which is then
factory-wired to individual disconnect switches for each circuit.
Refer to the unit nameplate and the Daikin Tools selection
report for the correct electrical ratings.
Qualified and licensed electricians must perform wiring. An
electrical shock hazard exists that can cause severe injury or
death.
The field power wiring required varies depending on unit
model. See "Figure 12: Wiring Index" on page
13: Controller Box Wiring" on page
Power Box Single and Multi Point Wiring" on page 16
wiring information. These wiring diagrams are also provided
with the chiller.
Factory-mounted and wired line reactors are standard, but
not included when the optional combo harmonic filters are
included.
NOTE: Wiring, fuse, and wire size must be in accordance
with the National Electric Code (NEC). The voltage to
these units must be within ±10% of nameplate voltage
(415V units must have voltage within -13% and +6%
of nameplate voltage) and the voltage unbalance
between phases must not exceed 2%. Since a 2%
voltage unbalance will cause a current unbalance of
6 to 10 times the voltage unbalance per the NEMA
MG-1 1998 Standard, it is most important that the
unbalance between phases be kept at a minimum.
Do not use power factor correction capacitors with WMC
chillers. Doing so can cause harmful electrical resonance in
the system. Correction capacitors are not necessary since
VFDs inherently maintain high power factors.
Chiller Control Power
For proper operation on standby power, the chiller control
power must remain as factory-wired from a unit-mounted
transformer. Do not supply chiller control power from an
external power source because the chiller may not sense
a loss of power and may fail to perform a normal shutdown
sequence.
