DESCRIPTION OF THE P030 CHILLER ENGLISH Translation of the Original

2 DESCRIPTION OF THE P030 CHILLER


The P030 Chiller is a unit ready for plug-in and is equipped with a refrigeration and water circuit
including all fittings and regulating/control devices required for automatic operation. The heat
extracted from the water is given off to the ambient air by means of the refrigeration circuit via the
condenser and the fans.

11. Pump

2.2 Refrigeration Circuit


The refrigeration circuit is a closed-loop system in which the refrigerant R134 circulates as the heat
transfer medium.
The water heated by the system separator is recooled in the evaporator (4). The liquid refrigerant is
thereby passed through the piping in a counter-flow arrangement with respect to the water. The
refrigerant evaporates as it takes up the waste heat from the cooling water of the system separator.

12 454522.68.07-01-E
27.06.2012
Translation of the Original ENGLISH DESCRIPTION OF THE P030 CHILLER

The vaporised refrigerant is drawn in by the three compressors (1) and is then compressed (rise in
pressure and temperature). The refrigerant also absorbs the heat of the compressor motor, and this
heat is given off to the surrounding air by the condenser (2) – in the form of waste heat – by means
of the two fans (3).
The refrigerant is thus liquefied and passed to the inlet of the expansion valve (5) via the liquid
receiver (pipe expansion), the filter drier (7) and the sight glass (6). The expansion valve permits
liquid refrigerant to enter the evaporator as a function of the temperature.

DESCRIPTION OF THE P030 CHILLER ENGLISH Translation of the Original

2.3 Water Circuit


The water circuit of the P030 Chiller together with the connecting hoses constitutes the transport
system of the cooling water between the P030 Chiller and the primary circuit of the system
separator (COO). This closed water circuit is designed in accordance with requirements and is
equipped with all fittings and components required for safety and monitoring purposes. The water
circuit is provided with its own pump.

2.4 Cooling Air Supply


The heat transferred to the evaporator upon cooling the water as well as the heat generated by the
compressor motors are absorbed by the refrigerant and given off to the cooling air in the
condenser. As cooling air the ambient air is used which is drawn through the condenser by the
fans; the air is warmed in the process and then discharged in upward direction.

Caution!

• It must be ensured that the cooling air can be drawn in and discharged without
any obstruction and adequate air changes for heat dissipation away from the
installation site of the chiller can take place.

27.06.2012
Translation of the Original ENGLISH DESCRIPTION OF THE P030 CHILLER

2.5 Safety Devices


The P030 Chiller is equipped with the following safety devices:

High-pressure control (HP)


The high-pressure control is designed to protect the P030 Chiller against extremely high operating
pressure in the refrigeration circuit. In the event of a malfunction, the HP control switches the P030
Chiller off and the malfunction is indicated on the control panel of the control and operating unit.
The P030 Chillers cannot be restarted until the pressure has dropped to the preset pressure
difference and the Reset button on the high-pressure pressostat has been pressed. The pressostat
is accessible from the service side.

Power disconnect switch (main switch)


In an emergency, the P030 Chiller must be switched off by means of the main switch.

2.6 Monitoring Devices


Low-pressure control (LP)
The low-pressure control protects the P030 Chiller against extremely low operating pressure in the
refrigeration circuit. In the event of a malfunction, the control switches off the P030 Chiller, and the
malfunction is indicated on the control and operating unit. Restarting of the P030 Chiller is effected
automatically as soon as the pressure has risen by the preset pressure difference.

Compressor overheat protection


Each compressor is equipped with an overheat protection (thermal contact, Klixon). In the event of
an increase in motor current in conjunction with a rise in the winding temperature, the overheat
protection trips, and the compressor is switched off. The overheat protection resets itself
automatically after the windings have cooled down. This malfunction is not indicated on the control
and operating unit.

Thermal contact – fan motor


In the event of an increase in motor current in conjunction with an increase in winding temperature,
cooling operation is switched off by the thermal contact. This malfunction is indicated on the control
and operating unit.

Circuit breakers (compressor, fan, pump)


In the event of an increase in motor current or in the case of short circuits, the circuit breaker trips
and interrupts the power supply. Such malfunctions are indicated on the control panel. The circuit
breakers are located in the control cabinet.

Flow and pressure switches in the water circuit


The flow switch shuts off the pump when the preset volume flow limit value is fallen short off and
sends a corresponding signal to the control and operating unit.
The pressure switch does not signal the malfunction to the control and operating unit if a pressure
increase in the water circuit exceeds the preset value.

Fan control
The condensation pressure is controlled by cycling the individual fans on and off. This type of
control permits an adaptation to different operating conditions at relatively constant condensation
temperatures.

454522.68.07-01-E 15
27.06.2012
DESCRIPTION OF THE P030 CHILLER ENGLISH Translation of the Original

Control and operating unit


The control and operating unit controls the water circuits and the refrigeration circuit. The control
and operating unit with display of the water temperature as well as the error codes in the case of a
general fault alarm is integrated in the control cabinet door.

2.7 Electrical/Control Equipment


The electro-technical equipment of the P030 Chiller is installed in the control cabinet. All required
components for the automatic switching, controlling and regulating operation are contained in the
control cabinet.
The main electric circuits are of a non-fused design featuring motor protecting switches.
The water outlet temperature is kept constant by the control and operating unit at a given setpoint
value by activation of power stages in the refrigeration circuit. The current water outlet temperature
is displayed on the control and operating unit.
The connection of the P030 Chiller to the equipment to be cooled is effected via a potential-free
interface. To achieve a galvanic isolation of the equipment to be cooled and the P030 Chiller, the
connection is accomplished by means of optical-fibre cables.

Caution!

• The safety notices contained in Chapter 1 must be complied with!

• The P030 Chiller is designed exclusively for the cooling of water. Only liquids
complying with the specification may be used for filling the water circuits!

7.1 Water Circuit

7.1.1 Water Requirements


Only water of drinking water quality, at a minimum, see drinking water properties (page 8) – or a
water-glycol mixture in a ratio of 60:40% may be used.
The following materials may be installed in the water circuit of the P030 Chiller:
− Copper
− Stainless steel
− Brass
− Red bronze
− Plastic
Depending on the materials used in the chiller-remote water circuit (installation to be provided by
the customer) material incompatibilities could result in a corrosion hazard. This must especially be
taken into account where galvanised and aluminium materials are used. If in doubt, consult
competent specialist contractors.

7.1.2 Flushing, Filling and Venting

Notice!

• Due to the fact that the P030 Chiller and its downstream equipment to be cooled
can be installed at different levels, it must be ensured that the system is properly
filled and vented.

Step Action

Connect the Filler device to the K-F-E valve [3] at the pump. Use a transparent hose for connecting it to
01 the K-F-E valve [4]. Put the open end of that hose into a pan or canister.
ATTENTION: Do not drain Glycol or Glycol mixtures into the sewage drain!

02 Open only the K-F-E valve [3] at the pump, all others have to be closed.

03 Close the ballvalves in the main branch [1 & 2].

04 Switch on the Filler device air bleeder [6] on the tank [5] is venting.

05 After finishing the venting process, open valve [2] and also K-F-E valve [4].

After escaping only pure cooling medium (without air bubbles) out of K-F-E valve [4], close this valve
06
and open ball valve [1].

Fill the cooling circuit up to a pressure of about 1.7 to 2bar (see pressure gauge [8]). While you´re doing
07
this, air bleeder [7] is venting.

After venting is finished, close K-F-E valve [3] at the pump. The pressure shown at the pressure gauge
[8] should stay stable for at least 10 minutes. If the pressure reduces, start again at step 05 and repeat
08 as long as the pressure is stable.
ATTENTION: Check the system for leakage at this step!

7.2 Initial Start-Up of the Pump


Danger!

• Always disconnect the power supply before working on the P030 Chiller.

• All control switches, motor protecting switches and automatic circuit breakers
must be placed to the "0" position!
The pump motor is equipped with a rotation direction sensor whose position can be changed.

Notice!

• A functional check of the rotation direction sensor should be carried out

before the initial start-up of the pump motor

whenever the position of the rotation direction sensor has been changed.

The functional check can be carried out by moving the rotation direction sensor, e.g. with your
finger.
To determine the direction of rotation of the pump motor, proceed as follows:
− Complete the procedure "flushing, filling and venting" as described in Chapter 7.1.2.
− Establish the electrical connections in accordance with Chapters 6.2 and 6.3.
− Switch on the pump.
− Observe the small display window in the rotation direction sensor.
The rotation direction is correct if a black area appears in the window, no further activities are
required.
In the event that a white area appears in the window, the following steps must be performed:
− Disconnect the P030 Chiller from the power supply, place all switches and automatic circuit
breakers to the "0" position.
− Reverse any two of the three electrical leads (phases).
− Re-check the rotation direction of the pump motor, as described above.

7.3 Refrigeration Circuit


After the activities on the water circuit and the pump have been completed, place the motor
protecting switches of the compressors to the -1- position (see circuit diagram in the Appendix).

Definition of Test Designations

M1 Inspections/tests must be carried out following any intervention in the refrigeration


circuit due to required repair or service activities (replacement of components,
elimination of leaks, replacement of filter-drier cartridges).
M2 Inspections/tests must be carried out prior to recommissioning a P030 Chiller following
an extended shutdown period.
M3 Inspections/tests must be carried out whenever – after the initial startup of the P030
Chiller at the end user's site – the unit is moved to a new location. Due to special
transport safety measures, any relocation of the P030 Chiller from the manufacturer's
plant to the end user does not statistically result in any increased failure rate and
therefore requires no re-inspection to be carried.
M4 A refrigerant charge of 11 kg requires a periodical check to be carried out once a year.

OPTIONS ENGLISH Translation of the Original

15 OPTIONS
15.1 Water Circuit
Strainer
The strainer is included in the hose set and fitted outside the chiller in the water inlet line.

Temperature sensor
The temperature sensor detects the water inlet temperature which is displayed at the control and
operating unit.

Temperature limit values


The water temperatures in the water circuit are monitored by limit values. If the preset limit values
are exceeded or not reached, a general fault alarm is issued on the control panel.

Flow control switch


The flow control switch is fitted in the water inlet pipe and is designed to monitor the flow rate in the
water circuit. If the minimum flow rate is fallen short of, the pump is switched off.

15.2 Electrical System


Glass fibre cable
A 100m long glass fibre cable is available as an option. As standard the P030 Chiller communicates
with the COO via a glass fibre cable up to 50m in length.

Control cabinet heater


The control cabinet heater is installed for temperature stabilisation of the control cabinet inside
temperature versus the ambient temperature (condensation water formation) and for the purpose of
ensuring minimum temperatures for the switchgear and controlgear inside the control cabinet.

Outdoor installation and pump shutdown upon a general fault alarm


In the event of a general fault alarm, the pump is shut down by the controller. After the fault has
been eliminated and a Reset carried out at the controller, the pump is restarted. If the general fault
alarm was triggered by the preset temperature limit value causing the pump to be shut down it is
necessary to carry out a restart. The restart is effected after the „fault reset“ has been carried out by
means of the ON/OFF control switch. The limit value alarm will be suppressed for 30 min. The
pump starts operating and the water temperature can drop below the preset limit value.

15.3 Cooling Air Supply


Protective condenser grille with air filter element monitoring
The max. permissible degree of contamination of the air filter element is monitored by the
condensation pressure.. If the max. permissible pressure is exceeded, a warning message "Filter
contaminated" is displayed on the control and operating unit.
