I. Introduction
Basing on matching with an optimized refrigerating system, the DAIKIN centrifugal water chiller utilizes
an advanced automatic control system to accurately control each procedure in the running process, so
as to maintain the chiller be always to optimal operation state. As strict requirement of manufacture
process, and strict management of imported parts quality, so DAIKIN centrifugal water chiller is more
stable and reliable in actual operation. Before ex-factory, each chiller will be strict structure quality
inspected and accurate performance tested, to ensure the reliability of the chiller using and running.
The HTS/HTD/HTC series chiller is single cooling mode. The TSC/HTC-HP series chiller is cooling and
heating mode.
According to the different climate in different areas and also the customers’ different requirements on
the operation status of each chiller, DAIKIN offers different chillers with different specifications to satisfy
customer’s requirements.
DAIKIN centrifugal chiller use environment-friendly R134a refrigerant. The standard water chiller runs at
normal pressure, so the purity is ensured, the utilization rate of the refrigerant is improved, the running
stability is also improved.
1.2 Application
The installation, operation and maintenance procedures are applicable to HTS/HTD/HTC, HSC series
chillers. If any change is required to the structure and installation of the chiller, please be sure to contact
DAIKIN for inquiry.
All DAIKIN centrifugal water chillers have been performed ex-factory test. The first commissioning on
the customer site must be completed by the DAIKIN authorized technical service personnel, or else, the
caused damage will not belong to the warranty range.
The warranty covers the parts certified to be caused by material defect or be the inferior product
manufactured by the plant. For the details about the warranty, see the accompanying Warranty or the
final party of this Manual.

3.1 Working Principle
Take HTS as the example below to explain the operating principle and the refrigerant flow diagram is
shown as the figure 4:
1. The low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant enters the compressor and becomes a high-
temperature and high-pressure gas after compressed, then enters the condenser from compressor, and
exchanges the heat with cooling water in the condenser.
2. The high-pressure liquid refrigerant after cooled by the condenser is throttled down in the expansion
valve, and then enter the evaporator after temperature and pressure reduction.
3. The refrigerant is evaporated in the evaporator and takes use of latent heat to make the chilled water
temperature decrease and thus achieve cooling.
4. The refrigerant gas enters the compressor and begins the next cycle.
3.2 Major Components
Evaporator
The evaporator of the DAIKIN centrifugal chiller is a hydraulic filling type tube shell heat exchanger with
the refrigerant loaded in the shell layer, and the water circulating in the heat exchange tube. The inner
surface and outer surface are subjected to enhanced heat exchange treatment. The refrigerant gas
returns to the compressor through the upper part of the evaporator.
Condenser
The condenser of the DAIKIN centrifugal chiller is a hydraulic filling type tube shell heat exchanger. The
inner surface and outer surface are subjected to enhanced heat exchange treatment. The liquid
refrigerant gas passes the right-angle stop valve through the bottom of the chiller and reaches the
expansion valve.
Electronic Expansion Valve
The electronic expansion valve adjusts the liquid supply amount of the evaporator according to the
preset procedure, and the driving method is that the control calculates the parameters collected by the
sensor, then an adjusting command is sent to the driving plate, the driving plate sends the electric
signal to the electronic expansion valve, and the electronic expansion valve is driven to act. Therefore,
the adjusting speed is high, while the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is limited, so it
is not suitable for the large-cold quantity requirement and is only applied to certain cold quantity range.
Compressor
The centrifugal refrigeration compressor of the DAIKIN centrifugal chiller is a speed type compressor; it
utilizes high-speed rotating impeller to transfer energy to the refrigerant gas; the gas obtains higher
speed and is subjected to speed reducing and pressure increasing by the pressure increaser, and then
the speed energy (kinetic energy) of the gas is converted into the pressure energy to complete the
compression process.

7.2 Standby Power Supply
For any centrifugal water chiller equipped with the standby power supply, if the chiller has rapid-start
function, the standby power supply must work in 35s. if the chiller do not has rapid-start function, the
standby power supply must be started until the chiller is completely stopped. In the running process of
the compressor, the attempting to switch the conventional power source to the auxiliary power supply
would severally damage the compressor.
7.3 MicroTech II Control
All chillers are equipped with the DAIKIN MicroTech control system. The control systems consist of:
●Operator Interface Touch Screen. A setting and input equipment for chiller's information and
parameters.
● Chiller controller, which is a device used for controlling the function of each water cooling water chiller
Fig. 7-3
Fig. 7-4
Measurement Values
The speed of the switch for energy control vanes is adjusted to meet the requirements of the system.
The needle valve on the oil drain pipe can be used for adjusting the oil drain speed, so as to further
control the “vane speed”. The needle valve is a part of the cross solenoid valve in the compressor
lubricating oil distributing box.
These valves are usually set in the factory. The time for complete opening to complete closing is shown
in Table 7-1.
The location of the needle valve is shown in Fig.7-5.
The opentage of the IGV is controlled by the compressor controller. The speed of the IGV movement can be
changed by changing the settings.Enlarge the T1-T3 can quicken the loading speed. Otherwise ,enlarge the T4-
T5can quicken the unloading speed. These settings are always set before shipping, service people can re-adjust the
settings according to different conditions. The values of T1-T6 are as below:
IGV opentage Standard range
value
<5 T1=6 T4=6 1~9
5~30 T2=2 T5=2 1~9
>30 T3=6 T6=6 1~9
The following table shows the alarm information of the IGV control module:
Table 7-2
Fig.7-6
7.4.3 Electronic expansion valve operation
Note: The dedicated EXV control program must uploaded to EXV control module.
Before unit operation, it is necessary to test the movement of the EXV, the operation is as follows:
1. Power on the control box of the chiller. First please check the EXV control module. If the module
shows alarm, check the resistance between the EXV phases. The normal resistance is 2~3Ω. If
there is no alarm, change the EXV control mode to manual in chiller controller.
2. Change the position of the EXV to 100%, using the sight glass on the EXV to check the movement
of the EXV. The correct movement of the EXV is moving away from the wiring port, this direction is
the opening direction. Otherwise, moving towards the wiring port is the closing direction.
3. When the EXV is moving, the green light on the EXV control module is always lighted and the
yellow one is twinkling. Once the yellow light stopped twinkling, means the EXV has arrived at the
target position, If the movement of EXV is abnormal, please check the wiring of the EXV.
7.5 Thermal Flow Switch (Only for High- voltage Chillers)
All the HTS100-160 chillers with high-voltage motor install the thermal flow switch on the motor-cooling
pipe. This switch is used to monitor the flow of the cooling refrigerant.
7.5.1 Indication of Thermal Flow Switch:
Fig. 7-7
Notes:
1. The relative positions of the pipes may not conform to the practical chiller positions.
2. R=relief valve, P=pressure sensor, T=temperature sensor, S=solenoid valve.
Fig. 8-1
For standard centrifugal chillers, if the customers use thermal switch or target-slice switch by themself,
the signal wires of the condenser flow switch shall be connected to CF terminals and T3-S terminals,
For evaporator flow switch, the signal wires shall be connected to EF terminals and T3-F terminals.
Please refer to the instructions of the electric for more details of the wiring.
The water connections shall have thermometers at the inlet and outlet as well as an emptying opening
at the highest point. The water head is interchangeable, so the water connection can be connected to
any side of the heat exchanger; in this case, the gasket of the water head shall be replaced and the
sensor must be re-installed.
If customer want to reduce the noise, it is recommended to use sound insulation and noise reduction
measures at the pump inlet and outlet to reduce the noise of the pump. The inlet and outlet of the
condenser usually do not need any noise reduction measures, but with strict requirements on noise and
vibrations, it is necessary to install noise reduction facilities.
Cooling Tower
Must confirm the cooling water flow rate satisfy the system design. If the cooling tower without
temperature control can’t keep the temperature more than 18℃, it is necessary to install the
temperature control. If the temperature can’t be controlled by the fans on the cooling tower, our
suggestion is to install the cooling tower by-pass valve. Unless system or chiller required, it is
deprecated to use by-pass valve or variable flow for condenser because this will lead to unstable
operation and serious fouling. The condenser water pump must on/off according to the chiller’s switch.
Cooling water pump and chiller start-stop shall be synchronization.
8.5Confirmation of chiller
Open the valves installed on the chiller.
Below mentioned stop valves are installed on the chiller for maintenance and these valves should open
before running:

The valves on the heads of heat exchangers are closed.
Open the valves installed on the oil cycle:
Including: oil pump outlet valve, inlet valve of the emergency oil feeding reservoir, oil inlet valve of the
four-pass valve, oil return pipeline valve of the oil pump and return air pipe valve of the oil tank.
Open water system valves
Open the evaporator and condenser water valves and oil cooling valves. Make sure there is no water
leak.
Open the water pump and cooling tower fan
Set all the parameters of the chilled water and cooling water, such as flow rate, temperature target. This
can be done by the chiller controller. Once all the parameters have been confirmed, turn on the chilled
water pump, the cooling water pump, the cooling tower pump and the cooling tower fans, The controller
will automaticly keep the parameters always satisfy the requirements. If the parameters can’t satisfy the
The chiller shall be operated and watched during its first operation.
1. The chiller should be powered on for 6 hours before starting,. And the power must be supplied to the
electric heater continuously to preheat the oil. The oil temperature shall be higher than the saturated
evaporating temperature by 17 °C.
2. When the unit start up, the power is supply, make sure the starter and control cabinet switch is open,
closed the upper switch of the starter, after closed, measure each two phases of power supply to check
whether it's 380V,use phase sequence meter to check if sequence is right. Make sure it's correct, Close
the power inlet switch, separately check the starter voltage meter is conform to actual voltage, use
meters to measure the starter power L1 and L2 terminals to see if it's 110V, after correction, closed the
control cabinet switch, observe the unit controller and compressor controller communication and data
display if it is normal, if abnormal, please conduct the inspection and calibrated.
After long time shut down period(above 6 months),the first start should follow above instruction.
The right motor rotation direction is as follows: face the sightglass of compressor motor, and the
clockwise direction is right. Switch on chiller control and compressor control, and after the countdown is
over, the compressor is started. And then close the chiller control and compressor control within two
seconds, and then observe if the compressor rotation direction is right. Pay attention that if there are
abnormal noises in compressor during operation and inertia, and only when the mechanical inertia is
confirmed to be lost completely, and the compressor and oil pumps stop totally, can the compressor be
restarted.

If it is needed according to the local standard, customer need to install a pipe on the relief valve to
exhaust the gas. Relief piping connections to the relief valves must have flexible connectors.Typical
discharge pipe line is as follows:
Fig. 10-2
Note:Remove plastic shipping plugs (if installed) from the inside of the valves prior to making
pipe connections. Whenever vent piping is installed, the lines must be run in accordance with
local code requirements.
When install discharge pipe on relief valve, the size of discharge pipe selection as per the size of relief
valve,then connnect to the valve.For large vessel condenser,both two relief valve should working
together,discharge pipe size selection as per the size of both two relief valve.
Refrigerant discharge pipe specification.
DAIKIN centrifugal units have relief valve settings of 160psi, 180 psi, 200 psi, and 225 psi.

Common Piping
The discharge from more than one relief valve can be run into a common header, the area of which
cannot be less than the sum of the areas of the connected pipes.The common header can be
calculated by the formula:
Fig. 10-3
10.8 Heat pump
TSC/HTC-HP is heat pump. The structure and operation mode is same as chiller. The only difference is:
the control target of chiller is evaporator leaving water temperature and for heat pump ,the target is
condenser leaving water temperature. In addition, once customer choose a high leaving water heat
pump, the design pressure of the condenser will increase and the relief valve will be different.
Rapid start is an optional function. When chiller has this function, if chiller suffered suddenly power lose
and the standby power source is work, it can be started and supply capacity quickly. UPS and water
pump must work reliable when chiller has rapid-start function.
Note: When chiller has rapid-start function, the chilled water/cooling water pump must work with a
reliable UPS. Otherwise the tube will be frozen when chiller is rapid starting. In addition, the units still
need to keep the start-start time from when compressor starts to when it can start again.
UPS supply power to oil pump and control cabinet when chiller is suffering suddenly power lose, so it is
very important to choose a UPS. If UPS is supplied by user, it must meet these requirements.

a) If the upper limit value is between 100%-110%, replace the dry filter, and then resample in normal
interval (generally once annually).
b) If the upper limit value is between 110%-125%, replace the dry filter, and then resample after chiller
operation for 500h.
c) If the upper limit value is above 125%, check the situation of water leakage.
3) If TAN is smaller than 0.10, the system is safe in terms of acid number.
a) If TAN is between 0.10 and 0.19, resample after chiller operation for 1,000h.
b) If TAN is above 0.19, replace the oil, oil filter and dry filter, and then resample in normal interval.
Refrigerant charging
The chiller leak detection had been done before delivery and sufficient refrigerant has been charged
with a mark above the chiller nameplate. If additional refrigerant is needed due to transportation
damage, please repair the leak area and recharge the refrigerant after evacuation.
Refrigerant charge cautions:
1,Connect refrigerant tank with Evaporator bottom service valve, then exclude air in the pipe line. This
is to avoid non condensing air absorbing into refrigerant system.
2,Open chiller water pumps and cooling water pump, make sure the water flow through the evaporator
and condenser to keep from frozen. Water flow through the vessels must be maintained anytime
refrigerant is added or removed from the system.
Warning: After charging refrigerant to system, you have to do all the check items
per IOMM required before starting compressor.
11.5 Cleaning & Maintenance
The chiller fault is usually caused by excessive water system dirty, so routine maintenance is very
important for keep good performance.
Every time inspection on the chiller should wash the filters in the chilled water system, cooling water
system.
Replacement of Relief Valve
All the chiller condensers adopt the two relief valve for pressure protection. One for running and the
other was for backup. When the relief valves were in year inspection, we could still have the other one
for chiller running.
Replacement procedures
1. If there is a safety leak near the three-way valve rod end, switch the three-way valve to the longest,
shut directly the leaked relief valve passage, and replace the broken relief valve. The three-way valve
shall be in a shut status before and after the replacement. If there is a safety leak which is far from the
three-way valve, switch the three-way valve to the shortest and repeat the said operations.
2. Do not remove both of the relief valves on one three-way valve.
3. After replacement, please do leak check before on the relative three way valve.
Pumping down
Pump the system down, extreme care must be taken to avoid the water side from freezing. Always
make sure that full water flow is maintained through the chiller and condenser while pumping down. To
pump the system down, close all liquid line valves. With all liquid line valves closed and water flowing,
using the specified refrigerant pump to move refrigerant into condenser or other container.
The above pictures from left to right are valve’s position of CE079-129/CE140/CE160.
The following maintenance is mandatory before the off-season and the restart.
12.1 Annual Shutdown
Where the chiller plant room temperature can be freezing temperature, the condenser and evaporater
must be drained of all water. Dry nitrogen blown through the condenser and evaporator will aid in
forcing all water out. Removal of vessel heads is also recommended. The condenser and evaporator
are not self-draining. If Water remains in the piping or vessels, lower temp may cause freeze and tube
might be broken.
Forced circulation of anti-freeze through the water circuits is one good method of
avoiding freeze.
1. Make sure the shutoff valve in the water supply line was closed.
2. Make sure to remove the water pump line drain plug, leave all water out.
3. Open the compressor disconnect switch. Set the manual COMPRESSOR and UNIT ON/OFF
switches in the Unit Control Panel to the OFF position.
4. Check for corrosion and clean and paint rusted surfaces.
5. Clean and flush cooling tower of all units for next starting up.
6. Remove condenser heads at least once a year to inspect the condenser tubes and clean if required.
12.2 Annual Starting up
If the chiller starter was broken, apply the power to chiller is forbidden. Before starting up, you have to
check each major component per instruction.
Firstly All motor coil grounding resistance needs to be checked, every six months and docking ground
resistance value check detailed record, because the resistance value will reflect the aging of the coil
insulation. New electrical wiring of the unit and the resistance value should be higher than 100 M Ω.
Once reading changed or average reading value is less than 50 M Ω, need to inspection for motor
terminals or motor inside. When reading less than 5 M Ω, the motor need to replace and repair. Please
contact with DAIKIN service person.
The following belongs to warning notes show on the chiller, chiller still running.

too low.
EXV
Positive temperature difference across evaporator and condenser must be established in 5 minutes
after the chiller start to run. If not, add cooling water bypass valve.
Operation of low condenser water temperature
If the wet bulb temperature of the ambient temperature is lower than the designed conditions, the water
temperature of condenser can be reduced. The low temperature can improve the chiller performance.
DAIKIN centrifugal chiller applying HTS063-160 compressor is equipped with electronic expansion
valve (EXV), and the condenser entering water temperature curve is shown in the figure below, and can
be obtained by the formula edited by the curve. The formula is shown as follows.

Condenser Water Temperature
When the ambient wet bulb temperature is lower than design, the entering condenser water
temperature can be allowed to fall, improving chiller performance.
DAIKIN chillers will start with entering condenser water temperature as low as 12.8°C providing the
chilled water temperature is below the condenser water temperature.
Depending on local climatic conditions, using the lowest possible entering condenser water temperature
can be more costly in total system power consumed than the expected savings in chiller power would
suggest due to the excessive fan power required.
Control cooling tower fan or adopt some measures to control water flow rate: for example, the water
bypass passing through the cooling tower.
14.2 Water flow scope
For the cooling water: the turbulent condition cannot be reached in the slow flow velocity, and the heat
exchange efficiency drops greatly;
And if flow velocity too high, the chiller water pressure drop enlarges, the water pump power
consumption raised and the lifetime of the heat exchange tube shortens.

14.3 Minimum water content in piping system
To avoid the frequent start and stop of the chiller, and keep the running continuously, the minimum
water retaining capacity of the chilled water system shall take the following calculation value.
The minimum water retaining water calculation formula Q(m3)=(T×60)×H/(Δt×Cp×ρ)
WhereinT: Compressor’s minimum running time (time) is calculated by 15 min
H: Chiller’s capacity control capacity (kW) = cooling capacity under full load (kW) ×0.3
Δt: Constant temperature fluctuation = 3.4°C.
Cp: Secondary refrigerant specific heat (kJ/kg°C) ρ: secondary refrigerant proportion (kg/m 3)
The cooling capacity under full load: calculated by the chiller’s maximum cooling capacity as for the
single compressor chiller; calculated by 50% of the maximum cooling capacity as for the double
compressor chiller.
