Ensure that all grills, diffusers, dampers, etc. are provided as intendad In the drawings. Ensure adequate provision of access door for duct dampers, PIPING CONNECTIONS 1, Water Cooled Units ‘The water-cooled condenser in model DPUW packaged units should be-connected to the cooling water circuit, as per drewings. Care should be taken to ensure that the cooling water pumps get free gravity feed to the suction connection from the cooling tawer. Where a number of units are located on different floors having a common cooling water circuit, itis advisable to locate the coaling tower above the topmost unit on the rect. Otherwise water from the units above the cooling tower is likely to drain into the cooling tower sump, during shutdown of A/C plants. In such cases during the restart, there are chances of air getting trapped in the cooling water Circuit and the pump may even suck air through the cooling tower basin due to inadequate rate of makeup. 2. Air Cooled Units In case of air-cooled packaged units, the room units must be connected to the outdaor condenser unit by adequately sized copper refrigerant piping. The piping route must be kept shart and free from bends, as much as possible. Adequate protections must be provided to the pipes to avoid ‘any mechanical damage, especially whi qunning on the roof. Areceiver should be installed in the liquid line immediately after the condenser installations where evaporator is located above the condenser. See Table no. 2.1 for recommended copper refrigerant pipe sizes. A reliel valve (400 psig) must be installed on the hot gas line near the air-cooled condenset or on receiver {finstalled). However manufacturers recommendation should be so ight for proper sizing and 3. Drain Piping ‘Condensate fram evaporator coil is collected in the drain tray provided undemeath ‘Connect suitable size drain piping to the drain tray on convenient side of the unit and ensure that the other drain connection provided in the opposite side of drain tray is. plugged. Provide adequate slope in the horizontal run af the drainpips. PVC pipe ean be used for disposal ‘of the condensate drain but utmost care is to be taken to ensure that the pipes are supported at close intarvals at 4 FOr 80, 86 a to avoid Sagging of pipes between supports. Though the sagged drain header may continue te allow condensate to flow aver @ period of time, fungus is likely to collect in the trapped water which will ultimately clog the drain. A 1 to 1.5° slope is recommended for efficient drainage. 2.5 SAFETY PROVISIONS a. The packaged units are provided with following satety devices : 1.

(It is assumed that all installation work has been completed). 1, Remove shipping bolts and adjust compressor mounts so that it floats freely on the resilient ‘mounts, 2. _ Fix fan motor if supplied loose. Connect fan motor power wiring to the electrical control Box. Put V belt on the fan drive and check belt tension and alignment, 3a, Incase of water-cooled unit, fil soft water in cooling tower sump. Ensure adequate soft make ‘up water is available to the cooling tower float valve. Ensure that the entire cooling water pipeline is filled with water. 9b. For air cooled units, check that refrigerant piping connecting the condenser unitiand evaporator unit is laid properly. Carry aut pressure test, vacuumising, and then charge the refrigerant gas, 4. Road the standing pressure in the condenser in case-of water-cooled units. Standing pressure should be equal to the saturation pressure of the refrigerant gas at ambient temperature. 5. For air cooled packaged unit gas charging will be required at the time of startup. Follow gas- charging procedure as described in Section IV. 6. Check main electric supply voltage. It shauld be 415 plus minus 6 % V, AC 3 phase. Start the blower check direction of rotation. To reverse the direction of rotation of blawer, interchange any two-line terminals on the fan starter. The ductwork must be completed before startup and all grils dampers etc. must be in position. This will help in balancing the system to the design airfiow through the ducts, Note fan motor current and see that @) Fan mator dogs not draw more than its rated current. b) The overload setting on tan motor starter is lass than, or equal to the full oad rated current of the motor. ©) Check and adjust the dampers in the ductwork as required to get required air quality in various outlets. Measure total air quantities across retum air fiters on the packaged unit. Recheck fan motor current. Step up / step down the fan speed ta ensure the design air quantity. 7a. For water cooled units, start the condenser water pump, check direction of its rotation and reverse if necessary. Check cooling tower spray and observe water pressures on inlet and outlet of condensers, Check pumps current and see that iis within rated limit, Set the averioad relay on the pump startup to thé rated current. Adjust condenser water globe valve on the outiet cof pump oF on outlet of packaged unit to adjust the flow. 7. Incase of air cooled units start the air-cooled condenser fan after checking that the condenser unit panel is properly closed and fan motor is wired properly.

ELECTRICAL SERVICE The packaged units are shipped from the factory completely pre-wired. When fan motors.are supplied loose, the fanmotor leads need to be connected at site. Power supply required is balanced 3-phase, 4 wire, 50 cycles, AC supply voltage must be 415 V plus minus 6 %. All control wiring is Suitable-for 230 V. single-phase 50 cycle AC. Electrical Test ‘Any test that has to be conducted to check electrical performance of the unit orits components must be done by authorised maintenance personne! only. Improper test procedures may lead to damage to the unit and cause fatal accidents. Disconnect main supply before attempting to touch any electrical ‘component. Following testiprocedure are required to be done on the unit, A. Continuity Test Use a multi meter for checking continuity in electric circuit. While checking motor: disconnect powor leads to the motor and see resistance of each pair of compressor terminals, A healthy winding will indicate zero resistanee. An open winding will indicate infinite resistance. {Caution — even a bumt or internally short winding will show continuity). tis essential 10 carry out meggar test to check the insulation resistanca of any motor. Check the motors for earthen winding by checking each motor terminal with the body of campressor. B. Meggar Test Use a S00V D.C. meggar Higher voltage might damage insulation ofthe winding. Doroteary 1. The resistance of a healthy winding is normally more than 1 megaohins (when windings are coo) f the resistance is betwoon 0.5 megachms to 1 megaohms the windings should be baked once again at 120 Deg C-tor 3-4 hours and resistance should be rechecked after the winding are cooled. tf resistance does not improve with rebaking, the compressor must be rewound, The resistance of fan motors can be improved on field by either running motor from the unit or heating the motor body with the help OF 2 or 3 100 watts bulbs placed around the mator. Vv C, Measurement Of Motor Current And its Adjustments Measurements of current is done by using a Tong Test or clip-on-ammeter. Ta measure current of any motor, set the ammeter range to the maximum first and measure line current at the starter outlet feeders. The line current of any motor should never exceed rated full load current for a long time. Motor current Is directly proportional te the load on the motor fan ar a pump motor is designed to give a design flow rate at an estimated head (the resistance offered by the system). An overestimation of head results in excess flow (through fan or pump) which is generated to create additional head. This results in increase of BHP and overloading moter, Adjust flow by regulating globe valve (on the outlet of condenser) in case of pumps and by reducing fan RPM or by regulating volume Control dampers in case of fans. For compressor motor check system for overcharge, mechanical fault or non-condensable in system. COMMISSIONING TIPS FOR SCROLL COMPRESSORS. “The scroll sets are lubricated by oll mist induced along with the refrigerant vapours. Atiew suction pressure below 25 psig the velocity of refrigerant being low the scroll set won't get adequate lubrication-oll mist Due to this dry running of scrail sets it gets overheated within a minute of operation which may damage the serail sets. Hence after vacuumising the system, charge the system with 70-75% of estimated refrigerant charge in liquid form from the liquid ine access fiting, Before starting the compressor ensuite thatthe suction pressure ‘does not fall below 25 psig. Top-up the balance quantity of refrigerant in to suction line in liquid form in a controlled manner. Note: ‘The initial filling should be based on the quantity of refrigerant charged by weight rather than by locking at the pressure gauge looking for some particular standing pressure. Filling oniy.a ite retrigerant- say hatf akg. or 1 kg, -and trying to charge refrigerant vapor only through the ‘compressor suction access valve, as is done in a reciprocating system, will overheat the compressor and ‘result in a failure due to high current and tripping. Contralled liquid charging into the suction is probably better than vapor charging that allows vacuum operation. ‘To enable the technician to putin the initial charge, suitable access valves on the suction and liquid lines are provided in the unit. To sum-up the above points, following care need ta be taken at site while commissioning a new scroll compressor 4. Charging a new scroll compressor is different from a reciprocating compressor. 2 After-vacuurnising the unit fil-in app. 80-75% of charge by weight -thréugh the access valves on the liquid line and suction line of the system. 3. Use a gauge manifold ta keep a watch on the suction pressure, Do not allow it to fall to vacuum or very lowsuction pressure, 4. After starting the new compresser, charge controlled liquid refrigerant into the suction and not vapour.

Pressure Testing Pressure testing (followed by vacuum tes!) a refrigerant circuit is essential: before refrigerant is charged in the system either initially or far topping up gas after a suspected leak. itis advisable to locate the leak, rectity and then charge gas after Pressure Testing (before pressure testing the remaining FREON gas should be removed into an empty cylinder. In case af a compressor winding burnout, the system should be thoroughly flushed with dry N, to drive out contaminants generated in the system, before the compressor is replaced. Its imperative that a new catchall Grier is fited in circuit (after a bumou). 4. Charge dry nitrogen in the system by connecting cylinder at the compressor service valve and check pressure in the system. Charge nitrogén up to a pressure of 3 to 4 Kalem?. 2. hack all joints with soap salution. Locate all leaks. 3. it no leaks are found, increase pressure upto 10.5 kglcm? adding more nitrogen. ‘Check for leaks 4. After all leaks are located, remove nitrogen completely by opening charging line. Repair leaks and retest. Do not start work unless entire nitrogen is removed from syste, CAUTION Never use oxygen gas for pressure testing as fatal explosion may ocour. Avoid use of CO2 for pressure test as CO2 gas may contain excessive moisture, which might remain in system. Do not se eompressor to build pressure for leak tast as overheating might damage the compressor NOTE Minor leak suspected during operation can be located by using Halide leak detector. g 4 Vacuumising and Charging of refrigerant Evacuating the system by pulling deep vacuum enable dehydrating the system and removing of air (non-condensable), In the event of a compressor burnout, it helps to remove carbon deposits and smoke that is generated. A good 2 stage vacuum pump should be employed to get vacuum down to 5 microns (1 microns = 0.001 mm) of Hg absolute, A vacuum gauge for reading vacuum should be used. 1. Put a jumper line (1/4" OD) to equalise high and low side on the compressor. Connect vacuum pump and vacuum gauge to the system. Open compressor services valves and start he pump. 2. Run pump till vacuum the boiling point of moisture (water) which will be about 0 Deg C. hence for normal ambient temperature (10 Deg C and above pulling a deeper vacuum is neither recommended nor necessary. 3. vacuum, is stabilised, close charging valve and stop the pump. 4, Allow vacuum in the system for an hour or $0, recheck vacuum, break vacuum by charging Refrigerant R-22 from the ‘% inch FPT service port at compressor suction shut-off valve. Fevacuumise and check. Charge gas as needed by the system, 5. Open the cylinder vaive a litle and purge air in the charging line by cracking the flare nut ‘al compressor valve port and allowing some refrigerant to drive out air. Tighten the flare nut. Open compressor services valve partially by turing stem clockwise and start ‘compressor. Follow start-up pracedure. Purging Non-condensable Gases Non condensable gases are likely to be accumulated at the higher portions of the system, This causes reduction in cooling capacity and waste of power resulting fram higher condensing temperature, 1. Short the LP switch. Close liquid lines shut off valve and connect gauges on suction and discharge service valves. 2. Start the compressor. Suction pressure will drop as the liquid valve is clased. Stop the compressor after suction pressure drops down to zero psig. The suction pressure will start raising again. When it becomes steady start compressor again. When sucton pressure again drops to zero, stop the compressor. Repeat this procedure til suction pressure slays more or less close to zero after stopping compressor. 3. Run the condenser water pump for abort half an hour and read the condenser shell pressure compare this with the saturation pressure of the refrigerant at cooling tower water temperature. If the shell pressure is more than 2 to 5 psi than the saturation pressure crack open the purge valve on the condenser. Repeat the pracess til the shell pressure ‘comes dawn te the saturation pressure of the refrigerant at water temperature. Bi ¥v 4. Close fully the purge valve and restart the unit. Compare operating pressure. Ifthe pressures are not within limits follow steps (1) and (2) once again. investigate unit performance it results are not satisfactory. Condenser Water Requirements \Water-cooled condenser should have a soft, filtered water supply. Hard water with hardness over BOppm of CaGOS circulated in the water circuit results in rapid scale formation inside the ‘tube surface. This results in reduction of heat transfer from condensing refrigerant to condenser water, thereby resulting into reduction of system cooling capacity, increased pressure, clogging of tube and nozzles and eventual break down of AC system. Atmospheric oxygen, carbon dioxide, sulphur diexide absorbed from air in cooling tower and dissolved in water causes carresion. "As the candenser water is recycled the concentration of corrosive minerals increases, Ifrepeated operational problems are altributed to condenser water, then it is advisable, in critical cases, that.chemical analysis is asked for rather than frequent descaling operabons that would eventually shorten the condenser life. Sof make-up water al rate of 1.5% 10 2% of flow-rate is recommended to be provided at the cooling tower, Descaling of condenser Carry out condenser descaling work when unit is not in operation. Following precautions should be taken. 1. Domnot run evaporator blower while descaling is being dane. Fumes/gases liberated during descaling with cause discomfort to the occupants and might cause harm to instruments! apparatus kept in air-conditioned space, 2 Descaling chemical should be circulated fram bottom port of condenser water connections and outlet pipe must be vented as shown. ‘Add water to the tank and start descaling pump. Check that there is na leak in the connections, Add descaling chemicals slowly to the tank, do not exceed ph of 4 Maintain pph valve by checking at regular intervals and adding chemical slowly. It Should take about 2-9 hours. Use descaling chemical that is manufactured by Vasu Chemicals, Mumbai or other chemical if approved by Voltas. ‘After descaling is aver, flush the system with water tll ph valve comes upto a little more than 7. Inspect the condenser tubes by opening end covers; use a nylon brush for brushing tubes if necessary. | ¥ GUIDELINES FOR HANDLING R407C REFRIGERANTS A HFC REFRIGERANT The following refrigerant is being used in place of the HCFC22 (R22) retrigerant.
