ADVANTAGES OF FLOODED CHILLER
2. Better Part Load Performance
The Dunham-Bush Air Cooled Flooded Chiller
with its sophisticated controller control and
patented oil management system ensure all
evaporator tubes are completely immersed in
the “boiling” liquid refrigerant to achieve
superior heat transfer efficiency while ensuring
adequate oil return to the compressor(s). This
ensures superior full-load efficiency and even
better part-load efficiency as the full heat
transfer surface areas of the evaporator tubes
are utilized even at part-load conditions. On
the contrary, in the direct expansion
evaporator, because of the need to maintain
adequate refrigerant gas velocities in the
evaporator tubes for proper oil return, it is
typical for certain bundle of evaporator tubes
to be “blocked” or “baffled off” at part-load
conditions. Therefore not utilizing the full-load
transfer surface of the evaporator tubes means
lower efficiency when compared with flooded
evaporator chiller at part-load conditions.
3. Flash Economizer/ Vapor Injection
Cycle for Increase Capacity and Higher
EER
The renowned Dunham-Bush vertical screw
compressor allows for flash economizer
vapor injection cycle to be incorporated,
increasing capacity by as much as 25% with
marginal 10% to 15% increase in kW-input.
Most of Dunham-Bush’s competitors who
produce Rotary Screw Chillers do not
incorporate flash-economizer vapor injection
cycle- not to mention flooded evaporator!
4. Excellent Capacity Modulation in
Response to Building Loads
Dunham-Bush utilizes its state-of-the-art
Vision 2020i controller in combination with the
electronic level controller and mod-motor
actuated ball valves to ensure instantaneous
and precise feeding of liquid refrigerant to the
flooded evaporator in response to changes in
building loads demand; and maintains precise
(±1/2°F) preset outlet chilled water
temperatures even at very low load conditions;
whereas most of Dunham-Bush’s competitors,
in screw chillers, still utilizes the conventional
“centrifugal chiller” method of using orifice
plates to modulate refrigerant feed to the
evaporator; and as such their machines does
at function efficiently at low-load conditions
and can encounter oil return problem!
-4-
5. Maximum Reliability and Redundancy
Today, the Dunham-Bush vertical screw
compressors are increasingly accepted for its
reliability. The 2-compressor models are
designed to have 2 independent refrigerant
circuits for redundancy. Individual compressor
is provided with suction stop valve*, suction
check valve, discharge stop valve* and other
isolating valves in the oil management system
to allow complete isolation of an unlikely faulty
compressor without contaminating the
refrigerant system.
6. Cleanable Evaporator
For a single pass evaporator join in a row, the
end plates at both ends of the water boxes (2
pass only at return end and 1 pass ‘u’
arrangement only at ‘u’ elbow end) can be
removed easily without dismantling the chilled
water piping connections, for inspection and
for mechanical tubes cleaning with brushes or
auto-brush. This will enable low tube fouling
factor in the evaporator to be ensured, thus
maintaining system efficiency.
7. Lower Water Side Pressure Drop
In a DX Evaporator, the water flows
transversely over the outside of the tubes. The
water flow is guided with vertical baffles. This
will have higher-pressure drop as compared
with the water flow in the tubes of a flooded
evaporator. In other words, the flooded chillers
will require smaller water pumps to operate at
lower power consumption.
8. Commonly Use In Large Tonnage
Chillers Where Efficiency Is Critical
As a general rule, the DX Evaporator are
typically used in small and medium tonnage
chillers where efficiency is not important and
the low initial cost is the main consideration!
However, with increasing energy cost and the
drive to reduce global warming, flooded
evaporator chillers will increasingly
become more popular not only in the large
tonnage but also in the small and medium
tonnage chillers. Dunham-Bush, again,
leads the industry in this respect!

The Revolutionary Dunham-Bush Vertical Screw Compressor

Dunham-Bush introduced the revolutionary Vertical Screw Compressors in the early 1970’s. Since then,
the compressor has undergone several design changes to improve efficiency, and reliability! Today, The
Dunham-Bush vertical screw compressors is not only the most efficient and reliable screw compressor in
its capacity range; but it is the most completely “packaged” rotary Screw Compressors for use in flooded
chillers! The Dunham-Bush vertical screw compressor and motor assembly is completely housed in an
integral oil separator heavy-duty steel casing -- therefore eliminating the need for an external oil
separator and its associated piping connections. Now the compressor oil separator is improved to 2. The
compressor does not require an external oil pump as it lubricates the bearing and rotors by use of the
pressure differential between the discharge and suction cavities of the compressor. Thus, there is also no
need for an external compressor oil cooler and its associated piping connections. The compressor is
completely sealed to prevent leakage and there is no need to service the few internal moving parts of the
compressor.

UNIT FEATURES
Positive Displacement Direct Drive
The compressor is directly connected to the motor
without any complicated gear systems to speed
up the compressor and thus detract from the

the discharge gas port.
D The separator is a multi-layered mesh element
which effectively separates oil from the gas
stream.

FIG. A FIG. B
Compressor Operation
Note: For clarity reasons, the following account of
the compressor operation will be limited to one
lobe on the male rotor and one interlobe space of
the female rotor. In actual operation, as the rotors
revolve, all of the male lobes and female interlobe
spaces interact similarly with resulting uniform,
non-pulsating gas flow.
Suction Phase
As a lobe of the male rotor begins to unmesh from
an interlobe space in the female rotor, a void is
created and gas is drawn in tangentially through
the inlet port-- Fig. A. --as the rotors continue to
turn the interlobe space increases in size-- Fig. B.
--and gas flows continuously into the compressor.
Just prior to the point at which the interlobe space
leaves the inlet port, the entire length of the
interlobe space is completely filled with drawn in
gas -- Fig. C.

thrust loads. Anti-reverse rotation bearings are
used.
Rotors
The latest asymmetrical rotor profiles of patented
Dunham-Bush design assure operation at highest
efficiencies. Rotors are precision machined from
high strength alloy steel and precision ground, in-
house.
Castings
All housings are manufactured of high grade and
low porosity cast iron.
Solid State Motor Protection
The motor winding protection module used in
conjunction with sensors embedded in the
compressor motor windings is designed to
prevent the motor from operating at unsafe
operating temperatures. The overloads for the
motor are also solid state.
FIG. C FIG. D
Compression Phase
As rotation continues, the gas in the interlobe
space is carried circumferentially around the
compressor housing. Further rotation meshes a
male lobe with the interlobe space on the suction
end and squeezes (compresses) the gas in the
direction of the discharge port. Thus the occupied
volume of the trapped gas within the interlobe
space is decreased and the gas pressure
consequently increased.
Discharge Phase
At a point determined by the designed "built-in"
compression ratio, the discharge port is covered
and the compressed gas is discharged by further
meshing of the lobe and interlobe space--Fig D.
While the meshing point of a pair of lobes is
moving axially, the next charge is being drawn into
the unmeshed portion and the working phases of
the compressor cycle are repeated.
UNIT FEATURES
Compressor Fully Unloaded
Slide Valve Control
Movement of the slide valve is programmed by an
exclusive Dunham-Bush electronically initiated
(by variations in leaving chilled water
temperature) hydraulically actuated control
arrangement. When the compressor is fully
loaded, the slide valve is in the closed position.
Unloading starts when the slide valve is moved
back away from the valve stop. Movement of the
valve creates an opening in the side of the rotor
housing.
Suction gas can then pass back from the rotor
housing to the inlet port area before it has been
compressed. Since no significant work has been
done on this return gas, no appreciable power
losses are incurred. Reduced compressor
capacity is obtained from the gas remaining in the
rotors which is compressed in the ordinary
manner. Enlarging the opening in the rotor
housing effectively reduces compressor
displacement.
REFRIGERATION CYCLE
Dunham-Bush rotary screw air cooled chillers are
designed for efficiency and reliability. The rotary
screw compressor is a positive displacement,
variable capacity compressor that will allow
operation over a wide variety of conditions.
- 10 -
Compressor Fully Loaded
Even at high head and low capacity, a difficult
condition for centrifugal compressors, the rotary
screw performs in a stable manner. It is
impossible for this positive displacement
compressor to surge.
The refrigerant management system, however, is
very similar to centrifugal water chillers and is
shown in the refrigerant cycle diagram below.
Liquid refrigerant enters the flooded evaporator
uniformly where it absorbs heat from water
flowing through the evaporator tubes. The
vaporized refrigerant is then drawn into the
suction port of the compressor where the positive
displacement compression begins.
This partially compressed gas is then combined
with additional gas from the flash economizer as
the vapor injection port at an intermediate
pressure is exposed to each interlobe space.
Compressed gaseous refrigerant is then
discharged into the integral oil separator where
oil, which is contained in the refrigerant vapor, is
removed and returned to the oil sump.
Fully compressed and superheated refrigerant is
then discharged into the condenser, where air is
being drawn through the condenser tube by the
propeller fan cools and condenses the refrigerant.
Liquid refrigerant then passes through the first
expansion device and into the flash economizer
where flash gas and liquid refrigerant are
separated.

of installation, these rubber, one-piece, molded
isolators are applicable for most installations.
D Spring Isolators - These housed spring
assemblies have a neoprene friction pad at the
bottom to prevent the passage of noise, and a
spring locking levering bolt at the top.
Neoprene inserts prevent contact between the
steel upper and lower housings. Suitable for
more critical applications as compared to
rubber-in-shear isolators.
TYPICAL SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
The Dunham-Bush air cooled water chiller
depends mainly on its on-board controller for
control. Operation described is for a two-
compressor units and is very similar for single
compressor unit.
For initial start-up, the following conditions must
be met:
D Power supply to unit energized.
D Unit circuit breakers in the ‘on’ position.
D Control power switch ‘on’ for at least 15
minutes. Compressor switches ’on’.
D Reset pressed on controller keypad.
D Chilled water pump running and chilled water
flow switch made.
D Leaving chilled water temperature at least 2°F
[1.1°C] above setpoint.
D All safety conditions satisfied.
After all above conditions are met, the controller
will call for the lead compressor to start. After a
one-minute delay, the first contactor (e.g. 1M-1) is
energized followed by the second contactor (e.g.
1M-2) after one-second-time delay. This provides
reduced inrush stepped start. The compressor 15-
minute anti-recycle timer is initiated at
compressor start.
The controller monitors compressor amps, volts,
leaving water temperature and suction and
discharge pressures. The compressor and cooling
capacity is controlled by pulsed signals to load
and unload solenoid valves on the compressor.
When the compressor starts, it is fully unloaded,
about 25% of its full load capacity. As the
computer gives it load signals, capacity gradually
increases. The rate of compressor loading is
governed by ramp control which is adjustable in
the controller.
The controller responds to leaving chilled water
temperature and its rate of change which is
proportional and derivative control. If leaving
chilled water temperature is within the deadband
(+/-0.8°F [0.5°C] from setpoint), no load or unload
commands are given. If chilled water temperature
is above deadband, the controller will continue
loading the compressor until a satisfactory rate of
temperature decline is observed. If leaving chilled
water temperature is below the deadband, the
compressor is commanded to unload. Thus the
- 14 -
compressor capacity is continuously modulated to
match applied load and hold leaving chilled water
temperature at setpoint.
If the applied load is greater than one compressor
can handle, it will load fully and then the controller
will call for a second compressor. After one
minute, the second compressors will start in the
same manner as the first. Then both compressors
will be commanded to adjust load to
approximately 50%. They are gradually loaded up
together until the applied load is satisfied. In this
way the two compressors share the load equally.
If the applied load decreases to the point that both
compressors are running at about 40% capacity,
the computer shuts down the lag compressor and
loads the remaining compressor to about 90%. If
applied load decreases further, the remaining
compressor unloads proportionally. If applied load
decreases to less than the minimum capacity of
one compressor, the leaving chilled water
temperature will gradually decline to 2°F [1.1°C]
below setpoint, and then the lead compressor will
shut down. It will restart automatically if leaving
chilled water temperature rises to 2°F [1.1°C]
above setpoint and both 15 minute anti-recycle
and one minute start delay timers are satisfied.
During start-up operation, the controller monitors
the difference between discharge and suction
pressures to ensure that minimum of 30psi [2bar]
differential is available for compressor lubrication.
If the difference falls below a minimum of 30psi
[2bar], the controller closes refrigerant flow control
valves, starving the evaporator, causing
evaporator pressure to drop, hence increasing
differential pressure. This is especially helpful at
startup, when warm chilled water and low ambient
temperature would cause a low head situation.
This feature is called EPCAS: Evaporator
Pressure Control at Startup. It is one of several
proactive control features of the controller which
overcome potential problems while continuing
operation.
Two additional proactive features are low suction
and high discharge pressure override. If operating
pressures approach trip level, compressors are
unloaded as necessary to continue operation.
APPLICATION DATA

Low Ambient Operation / Freeze
Protection
If unit is required to operate below 65°F [18.3°C],
optional head pressure control is required. Glycol
is recommended for added protection. If wind in
area is over 5 mph [8 kph], a wind barrier is
recommended.
Desuperheaters
A hot gas desuperheater can be factory supplied
for field installation. Desupperheater reclaim the
desuperheated gas energy for hot water utility.
Consult factory for further details.
Water Circuit
Constant water flow required with a minimum of 3
gallons per TR [3.3 liters/kW] increasing up to 10
gallons per TR [11 liters/kW] for process, low load
applications with small temperature ranges and/or
vastly fluctuating load conditions.
Glycol Freeze Protection
If the chiller or fluid piping is to be exposed to
temperatures below freezing, glycol protection is
recommended. The re-commended protection is
10°F [5.6°C] below the minimum ambient
temperature. Use only glycol solutions approved
for heat exchanger duty. The use of automotive
anti-freeze is not recommended because they
have short-lived inhibitors and fouling of the
vessels will occur. If the equipment is exposed to
freezing temperature and not being used, the
water in vessels and piping should be drained.
The use of glycol causes a performance derate as
shown below which needs to be included in the
unit selection procedure.

Single Pit (See Note 2)

Double Pit (See Note 2)

Multi Pit

Notes:
1) All dimensions are minimum unless
otherwise noted.
2) Overhead obstructions are not
permitted.
3) Pit installations are not recommended.
Re-circulation of hot condenser air in
combination with surface air turbulence
cannot be predicted. Hot air re-
Corner Wall circulation will severely affect unit
efficiency (EER) and can cause high
pressure or fan motor temperature trips.
Contractor shall be responsible for
ducting fans to a higher level to
alleviate the discharge air and prevent
backflow of air, consult Dunham-Bush
or our Representative for the correct
design recommendation.

_________________ TR (kW output) cooling
_____________ USgpm (liters/min.) of water from
__________ °F[°C] to _________ °F[°C]. Power
input requirements for the unit(s), incorporating all
appurtenances necessary for unit operation,
including but not limited to the control accessories
and oil pump or pumps, if required, shall not exceed
___________kW input at design conditions. The
unit shall be able to unload to _______% of cooling
(refrigeration) capacity when operating with leaving
chilled water and entering condenser temperature at
full load design temperatures. The unit shall be
capable of continuous operation at this point, with
stable compressor operation, without the use of hot
gas bypass.
3. Heat transfer surfaces shall be selected to reflect
the incorporation of a fouling factor of 0.0001 hr. ft².
°F/BTU [0.000018m².°C/W] for the evaporator.
Water pressure drop at design conditions shall not
exceed ____________ feet of water through the
evaporator.
4. The packaged chiller shall be furnished with single-
stage direct connected positive displacement rotary
screw compressor(s) as required, of vapor injection
type, driven by a 2900 RPM (3500 RPM-60Hz)
motor. Each compressor comes with built in integral
oil separation system, oil sump and oil filter. The oil
differential pressure shall be controlled during
operation to maintain proper oil lubrication
throughout the system. An electric oil heater shall
be supplied together with each compressor to
maintain oil temperature during shutdown period.
Each compressor shall have a suction filter, (127
and 192mm compressor series will come with
service valve for both suction and discharge).
Compressor capacity control shall be obtained by
- 34 -
an electrically initiated, hydraulically actuated slide
valve within each compressor
5. Evaporator vessels shall all be cleanable shell and
tube type with integral finned copper water tubes
mechanically expanded into heavy fixed steel tube
sheets. They are to be available in one, two or three
pass design as required on the drawings with
victaulic or flange connections. The shell side of the
evaporator is to have a single relief valve with
provision for refrigerant venting. Evaporators shall
be designed, constructed in accordance with the
ASME Code for Unfired Pressure Vessels. The
flooded evaporator shall have a built in distributor
for feeding refrigerant evenly under the tube bundle
to produce a uniform boiling action and baffle plates
shall be provided to ensure vapor separation. Water
are to be removable for tube cleaning. Vent-header
and drain plugs are to be provided in each head.
(All low temperature surfaces shall be factory
insulated.)
6. The flooded evaporator shall be fitted with an oil
recovery system. The oil recovery system will
ensure that the evaporator is operating at peak
efficiency at all times and provide optimal energy
efficiency during extended periods of part load.
Units without oil recovery systems mounted on the
evaporator will not be acceptable.
7. The condenser coil is to be constructed of copper
tubes and die formed aluminum fins having self-
spacing collars. Fins shall be mechanically bonded
to the tubes. An integral sub-cooling loop shall be
incorporated into the coil. Condenser divider baffles
shall fully separate each condenser fan section to
control the airflow to maintain proper head pressure
control. The condenser shall be sized for pump
down capacity.
8. To maximize energy efficiency, the packaged chiller
shall be equipped with a flash economizer cycle and
modulating refrigerant expansion devices.
Refrigerant vapor from the flash economizer shall
be fed back into an intermediate compressor stage,
reducing the enthalpy of the refrigerant and
increasing the net refrigeration effect of the
evaporator.
GUIDE SPECIFICATIONS
9 The fans shall be heavy duty, polypropylene blade,
direct drive propeller type. Motors shall be three
phase with internal overloads and are to be
permanently lubricated.
10. The packaged chiller shall be furnished with a
modulating refrigerant control system to optimize
efficiency and compressor protection. This
refrigerant control system will reduce the flow of
efficiency robbing refrigerant vapor in the
condenser from entering the evaporator at reduced
load by directly modulating a motorized refrigerant
valve in the liquid line entering the evaporator. In
addition, the refrigerant control system shall
measure the level of liquid refrigerant in the
flooded evaporator and restrict refrigerant flow
entering the evaporator upon a rise in the level,
protecting the compressor from liquid slugging.
Fixed orifice control systems will not be
acceptable. (Hot gas bypass shall be factory
installed for operation below minimum percent of
unit capacity.)
11. The packaged chiller shall be equipped with
controller control. The control shall provide for
compressor loading based on leaving chilled water
temperature. It shall provide for high and low
refrigerant pressure protection, low oil level
protection, evaporator water freeze protection,
sensor error protection, and motor load control
(demand limiter) based on amp draw. Anti-recycle
protection shall also be provided. The controller
shall have a simple keypad accessed input system
and be complete with a two-line 80 character
alphanumeric display. Input shall be accomplished
through simple menu driven display screens, with
on-line help available by pressing a help button at
anytime during operation. The controller shall
continuously monitor evaporator leaving water
temperature; evaporator and condenser pressure;
compressor amp draw; and refrigerant. The
controller shall be complete with all hardware and
software necessary to enable remote monitoring of
all data through the addition of only a simple,
phone modem and terminal. The controller shall be
complete with an RS232 "local" communications
port and an RS485 long distance differential
communications port. The controller shall also
accept a remote start and stop signal, 0 to 5VDC
chilled water temperature reset signal and (0 to
5VDC compressor current limit reset signal).
Terminal or PC with communication software
installed to enable remote monitoring.
