2.1 GENERAL
A. Chillers are shipped skid mounted and wrapped in plastic prior to
shipment. Check the overall condition of the equipment prior to
accepting delivery. Check for visible damage and document any
evident damage on the delivery receipt. Shipping damage is the
responsibility of the carrier.
B. All process piping materials (such as hose, rigid piping, valves or
lters)usedinprocesswaterpipingcircuitrymustberatedfor100°F
minimum temperature and 100 PSI minimum pressure.
C. All such materials must have the equivalent or larger diameter of the
particular process connection that length of process water piping is
connected to.
2.2 UNIT LOCATION
A. Foundation. The chiller must be installed on a rigid and level
mounting surface with adequate strength to support the operating
weight of the chiller including the weight of water and attached
piping.
B. For air-cooled and water-cooled models:
1. These units are designed for indoor use only.
2. Formostefcientoperation,locatethechillerinalevel,
clean, dry and well ventilated environment.
C. For air-cooled models:
1. The unit has an air-cooled refrigerant condenser. For air-
cooled condensers, a motor driven fan (on models from
5 to 20 tons) or a centrifugal blower (standard on models
from 25 to 30 tons and optional on other models) generates
airowthroughthecondensertoremoveheatfromthe
refrigerant system. The air cooled condenser on the unit
willdischargeapproximately15,000BTU’sperhourper
tonofcoolingandtheairowrateisapproximately1cfm/
nominal ton.
2. The unit must have a minimum entering air temperature of
60°F and a maximum entering air temperature of 95°F for
efcientoperation.
3. The unit must have a minimum of two feet clearance at the
air intake and six feet at the vertical exhaust air discharge
and must have adequate ventilation to dissipate the rejected
heat. The unit must not be placed in non-ventilated areas.
4. The unit must have all enclosure panels in place before
operating the compressor. Air will not be drawn through the
