Chiller use and sequencing Overall visual inspection Check setpoints Evaporator and condenser coil fouling Compressor motor temperature Perform water quality test Leak testing

Turn off or sequence unnecessary chillers. Complete overall visual inspection to be sure all equipment is operating and that safety systems are in place. Check all setpoints for proper setting and function. Assess evaporator and condenser coil fouling as required. Check temperature per manufacturer's specifications. Check water quality for proper chemical balance. Conduct leak testing on all compressor fittings, oil pump joints and fittings, and relief valves.

Check all insulation Check insulation for condition and appropriateness. Control operation Verify proper control function including:

Hot gas bypass Liquid injection

Check vane control Check settings per manufacturer's settings specification. Verify motor load Check settings per manufacturer's limit control specification. Verify load balance Check settings per manufacturer's operation specification. Check chilled water Check settings per manufacturer's reset settings and specification. function Check chiller lockout Check settings per manufacturer's setpoint specification. Clean condenser Clean tubes at least annually as part of tubes shutdown procedures.

As required, conduct eddy current test to assess tube wall thickness. Clean tubes at least annually as part of shutdown procedures. As required, conduct eddy current test to assess tube wall thickness. Check all alignments to specification. Check all seals and provide lubrication where necessary. Conduct analysis on oil and filter. Change as required. Check oil pump and seals. Check oil heater and thermostat. Check all strainers, valves, etc. Check all electrical connections and terminals for contact and tightness. Assess proper water flow in evaporator and condenser. Add refrigerant as required. Record amounts and address leakage issues.
