Section 1 - General chiller information and safety
Introduction
YORK YCIV0157 through 0397 chillers are manufac-
tured to the highest design and construction standards
to ensure high performance, reliability and adaptability
to all types of air conditioning installations.
The unit is intended for cooling water or glycol solu-
tions and is not suitable for purposes other than those
specified in this manual.
Rigging and lifting should only be done by a profes-
sional rigger in accordance with a written rigging and
lifting plan. The most appropriate rigging and lifting
method will depend on job specific factors, such as the
rigging equipment available and site needs. Therefore,
a professional rigger must determine the rigging and
lifting method to be used, and it is beyond the scope of
this manual to specify rigging and lifting details.
This manual contains all the information required for
correct installation and commissioning of the unit, to-
gether with operating and maintenance instructions.
The manuals should be read thoroughly before at-
tempting to operate or service the unit.
All procedures detailed in the manuals, including in-
stallation, commissioning and maintenance tasks must
only be performed by suitably trained and qualified
personnel.
The manufacturer will not be liable for any injury or
damage caused by incorrect installation, commission-
ing, operation or maintenance resulting from a failure
to follow the procedures and instructions detailed in
the manuals.
Warranty
Johnson Controls warrants all equipment and materials
against defects in workmanship and materials for a pe-
riod of eighteen months from date of shipment, unless
labor or extended warranty has been purchased as part
of the contract.
The warranty is limited to parts only replacement and
shipping of any faulty part, or sub-assembly, which has
failed due to poor quality or manufacturing errors. All
claims must be supported by evidence that the failure
has occurred within the warranty period, and that the
unit has been operated within the designed parameters
specified.
Johnson Controls
All warranty claims must specify the unit model, serial
number, order number and run hours/starts. Model and
serial number information is printed on the unit identi-
fication plate.
The unit warranty will be void if any modification to
the unit is carried out without prior written approval
from Johnson Controls.
For warranty purposes, the following conditions must
be satisfied:
• The initial start of the unit must be carried out
by trained personnel from an authorized Johnson
Controls Service Center. See Section 5 - Commis-
sioning.
• Only genuine YORK approved spare parts, oils,
coolants, and refrigerants must be used. Recom-
mendations on spare part stocking can be found
on Recommended spare parts on page 333.
• All the scheduled maintenance operations detailed
in this manual must be performed at the specified
times by suitably trained and qualified personnel.
See Section 9 - Maintenance.
• Failure to satisfy any of these conditions will au-
tomatically void the warranty. See Limited war-
ranty on page 319.
