2 Installation

2.1 Reception and Inspection

On receipt of the ultracool unit, it must be inspected for damage during
transport. In the case of any damage, external or internal, this cannot be
referred to the manufacturer because all units are checked before dispatch. If
any damage is observed, this should be documented and reported to the
forwarding company. The Lauda Ultracool S.L. warranty does not include
any damages incurred during transportation.

The refrigerant circuit controls are set before shipment of the unit. They should
not be re-adjusted under any circumstances (except by an authorized service
agent). This would void the warranty of the unit.

2.2 Transportation
Keep the unit upright at all times. Do not tilt when shipping or moving. The
tilting of the ultracool unit may affect the internal suspension of the
refrigerant compressor.

The ultracool unit must be transported by pallet jack or forklift truck.

2.3 Site
The ultracool unit must be installed in an atmosphere where the range of
temperatures is within the indicated margins mentioned in point 3.1. It is
necessary to add ethylene glycol to the water of the circuit, as indicated in point
2.4.
The chiller must be installed on a solid level surface that is capable of
supporting a minimum of 340kg (750 lb).
We recommend the installation of the ultracool unit in a well-ventilated site and
in a corrosive-free, dust-free atmosphere.
In the case of out-door installation the chiller must be protected from rain with a
roof and it must be installed in such way that the control panel receives as few
direct sunlight as possible.
In average the unit will be exhausting 14700 Watts (50186 Btu/h) into the
surrounding air. Most of this heat comes from the cooling of the application and
a small part is produced by the chiller itself. It is important that this heat can be
removed in order to maintain an ambient temperature as low as possible (the
higher the ambient temperature is, the lower the chiller performance). The air
flow rate is approximately 138 m3/min (4885 cfm). The fan draws air through
the condenser’s grid at the front side of the chiller and exhausts it through the
top. The condenser’s grid size is 560 mm (22’’) x 690 mm (27”).
MI-0173 02.06.10 rev.1

Leave a space of 1m (40’’) in front and left panels of the UC unit (see figure 1).
It is important to facilitate maintenance work and cleaning, especially in front of
the condenser grid and in the left panel.

-4-
 Installation
2
If necessary the unit can be installed without any free space on the left panel as well. In
this case foresee that the unit can be moved forwards to free the lateral panels when
there are maintenance works to be carried out.
The inlet of fresh air onto the condenser should be in the most direct way possible,
avoiding any chance of air recycling (the ceiling above should not be at less than 1 m
(40’’).

Fig.1 Fig.2
Figure 1: In case of installation in a small room it is imperative that the room has an
appropriate ventilation system to evacuate all the heat generated by the chiller as
explained before on this same point. If the heat is not removed the temperature in the
room will quickly increase beyond the operating limits of the unit and it will stop by high
pressure alarm (see point 3.1).
Figure 2 shows the maximum length that the air from the chiller can be conducted if
the room has not an appropriate ventilation system. In this case it is still necessary to
install a ventilation grid facing the condenser with a minimum surface of 0.75 m2 (8
square feet).
Make sure that if the chiller is vented to the outside there is a way (a louver door or
shutoff door on out side wall) to keep the cold outside air from entering the chiller when
it is not operating. Take into account the pressure drop created by these elements
when sizing the air duct.
In this type of installation consider that the chiller will be drawing into the room the
same amount of air that it is exhausting to the outside.

2.4 Installation
The ultracool units must always operate with the panels closed to enable
the inlet of fresh air only through the condenser.
50 Hz and 60 Hz version except for USA
This unit is adjusted to a cold water set point of 6ºC (43ºF) and an antifreeze
set point of -1ºC (30ºF). A minimum ethylene glycol concentration of 15% must
MI-0173 29.05.09 rev.0

be added to the water circuit to avoid freezing and the antifreeze set point must
be adjusted in accordance to the table below. For instance, if the minimum
ambient temperature is -10ºC, then 30% of ethylene glycol is required and the
antifreeze set point must be adjusted at -14ºC (7ºF).

60 Hz version for USA
This unit is adjusted to a cold water set point of 43ºF (6ºC), and an antifreeze
set point of 21ºF (-6ºC). A minimum ethylene glycol concentration of 20% must
be added to the water circuit to avoid freezing. If the ambient temperature is
lower than 21ºF (-6ºC), the Ethylene glycol concentration must be adjusted at
30% and the antifreeze set point at 7ºF (-14ºC).

Do not use automotive antifreeze. Use lab grade ethylene glycol only! Do
not use an ethylene glycol concentration above 30%; this would damage
the water pump.
The product “Refrifluid B” is supplied with the chiller.

2.6 Water Connection

Leave at least 1.5 meters (5 feet) of flexible pipe right after the chiller’s inlet
and outlet connection. It will allow moving the chiller for a better maintenance
access without dismantling the water pipes.
The chiller should be located as close as possible to the Indigo machine.
Pressure drop in the pipe should not exceed 0.7 bar. The water lines
must be in pipes of at least 1". Maximum total pipe length is the
following:

Maximum total
pipe length (*)
Pipe diameter 1" 80 m. (260 feet)
Pipe diameter 1 ¼" 110 m. (360 feet)
Pipe diameter 1 ½" 210 m. (700 feet)

(*) Total pipe length: To go to the press + come back from the press.
Therefore, the maximum distance between the chiller and the press would be
half that pipe distance.
Table 1.2 Equivalent Length for Common Fittings and Valves:

90º Bend Ball Valve
Equivalent pipe 1.5 0.3
length m ( feet) (5) (1)

Minimize the number of bends in the water lines. The length of hose, number
of fittings, valves, etc. will also cause an increase of the pressure drop.
To perform the water connections make sure the chiller is turned Off and
disconnected from any power supply and open de left panel of the chiller.

Always install thermal insulation for all pipes or, at least, make sure that
the pipes are opaque to the light.

When possible install the water lines at the same level as the chiller until
reaching the Indigo printing press. The height difference between the chiller
and the application should never exceed 10m (33 feet). In the installations in
which the water level of the circuit exceeds the maximum level of the
tank inside the ultracool unit, it will be necessary to install a check valve
in the water outlet of the ultracool unit and a solenoid valve in the water
inlet. The power supply of this solenoid valve will be carried out by terminals
designed for that purpose (see electrical diagrams).

To prevent rusting of the water pipes, we recommend plastic pipes and fittings.

Where flexible tubing is used, it should be of reinforced construction and rating

for a minimum working pressure of 6 bar g (90 psig) within -15ºC and 30ºC
(5ºF and 86ºF).

Use the following diagram as a reference to connect the water pipes between
the chiller and the press:

Introduce the main power supply cable through the cable gland located at the bottom of
the right panel (see fig.7). Avoid as much as possible that the cable gets in contact with
the air/refrigerant heat exchanger (which looks like a radiator) as its surface gets hot
during operation (fig.8). Connect the cable with the incoming power terminal block which
is located on the left side of the X1 terminal block inside the electrical box of the chiller.
(see fig.9).

Fig.9

Fig.7

Fig.8
Number of wires: 4 wires (3phases+ earth). The wire size should meet local electrical
codes.

Maximum fuse size: 32 Amps (50Hz) or 60 Amps (60Hz).

Minimum circuit ampacity: 32 Amps (50Hz) or 41.7 Amps (60Hz).

The chiller has some special terminals prepared for the following functions:

- Terminals 23 and 24, remote On/Off operation: This chiller is meant to be turned
On and Off automatically by the HP Indigo press. This remote On/Off signal is
transmitted to these terminals by a dry contact in the press (open contact = chiller Off,
closed contact= chiller On).

Note: During the initial commissioning, the chiller must stay turned Off but
connected to the power supply (Main power swith On) for at least 6 hours (see
point 3.2). During this time the chiller must not receive any On signal.
- Terminals 25 and 26, external solenoid valve connection: They can be used to
supply a solenoid valve with 24VAC. If the pipes or the Indigo machine are installed
above the level of the chiller’s outlet this valve prevents backflow when the chiller is
stopped (see point 2.6). These terminals are only at 24V when the water pump is
working.
- Terminals 27 and 28, external alarm report signal: These terminals provide a dry
MI-0173 06.07.11 rev.1

contact for a general alarm of the chiller. This contact is open as long as there is no
active alarm.

A system of fuses or circuit breakers must be installed before the power inlet
connection to the ultracool unit.

3.2 Chiller start-up

Clean the application water circuit with tap water in order to be sure that there are
no free particles. Otherwise the filter element can block up during the start up
process.
Turn Off the Main power switch (to avoid any possibility of unexpected start up
of the equipment during this operation). Open a lateral panel, open the tank cover
and fill the tank with water of the required quality (see annex 9), the suitable
glycol concentration and the Refrifluid B additive according to point 2.4 of
this manual. Fill it directly to the tank until the maximum level of the tank is
reached. Lift the level switch manually to make sure it resets itself: when it resets
you will hear its contact “click”.

Open the water inlet and outlet valves completely as shown on the following
pictures:
MI-0173 06.07.11 rev.1

-10-
 Start-Up

Make sure that the external fuses are installed. See electrical diagram.
Make sure that the Remote On/Off control is not connected between terminals 23
and 24 and a wire-bridge is not installed between them either.
Turn on the Main power switch (element 1 in the control panel, see point 4) and
check if the phase sequence order is correct: The chiller is equipped with a phase
sequence detector relay (KA1) that will not let the motors start if the sequence of
phases at the main power supply is wrong.
The phase sequence detector relay (KA1) works as long as the general switch is
On and the Q2 circuit breaker is On. You can see when the relay is operating
because the “PWR” led will be lit. If the phase sequence is right the LED “RY” will
be lit. If the phase sequence is wrong, the LED “RY” will not be lit. If this happens
switch OFF the main power switch, disconnect the chiller from the power
supply and exchange two phases in the main power supply.
If the phase sequence is not correct, the thermostat display will show the alarm
“FL” when the chiller receives an On signal and it will not start up.

Phase Sequence Detector

Relay inside the electrical
box with the Power
(PWR) and phase
sequence (RY) indicator
LEDs.

After turning On the Main power switch it’s necessary to wait six hours before
continuing with the start-up sequence. This time is necessary for the crankcase of
the compressor to heat up. The compressor can be damaged if this
procedure is not followed.
The oil in the crankcase of the compressor remains warm whenever the main
power switch is in the On position and the unit is connected to the line voltage.
Close both lateral panels and switch OFF the main power switch during any
electrical intervention.
Connect the Remote ON/OFF control in terminals 23 and 24. If you do not use a
remote control, connect the wire-bridge supplied inside the electrical box to link
terminals 23 and 24.
Switch ON the general switch and, if necessary, give an ON signal through the
MI-0173 06.07.11 rev.1

remote ON/OFF, then the unit will start up.

-11-
 Start-Up

After 5 minutes stop the unit, open the left panel and check the level in the tank.
If the level is below the maximum then refill the water tank again.
Repeat this operation until water level in the tank remains constant.

When refilling the tank respect the ethylene glycol concentration as per
point 2.4.

On the control thermostat select the desired temperature of the cold water outlet
(see point 4.2.1). The ultracool units are delivered with a pre-set temperature of
6ºC (43ºF).

Check the working pressure of the water pump, if it is higher than 5,9 bar
and all manual valves in the circuit are fully open, then check that the water
pipes meet the requirements on point 2.6.

4.2.1 Operation
As long as the main power switch is on, the display of the control thermostat
shows the water temperature measured in the water tank. In the 50Hz version
the display shows the temperature in ºC and in the 60Hz version it shows it
in ºF.
Remote On/Off: The chiller cannot be started without an On signal through
Remote On/Off control from to the press (circuit closed between terminals 23 and
24). See point 2.7.
On/Off memory: The control thermostat comes back to the last mode/status (“On”
or “Stand by”) at which the control thermostat it was powered off the last time. This
means that, if the chiller was initially in Stand by mode, if you turn Off and On the
Main Power Switch, the chiller will still continue in Stand by instead of turning On
automatically.
To start the chiller again you should give an On signal locally through the
thermostat keypad, with the UP key as indicated above or remotely through remote
On/Off terminals 23 and 24.
Local On/Off: As long as the remote On/Off is connected, the chiller can be also
turned On and Off locally through the control thermostat keypad. In order to
start/stop the chiller press the UP button during a 10 seconds. When the chiller
turns On the On/Off indicator signal is lit in the thermostat display as depicted
above.
Temperature probe reading: During normal thermostat operation, pressing Up for
less than 5 seconds allows displaying the current values of the different probes of
MI-0173 06.07.11 rev.1

the chiller. In this mode, pressing UP and DOWN selects the probe and pressing
SEL displays the value of the selected probe.
To exit this mode, press PRG button or do not press any button for at least 60
seconds.

- Press Sel button for about 5 seconds, the display will show "- / -".
- Press Down button several times until the display shows "- r -".
- Press Sel button and the display will show "- r01 -". This parameter is the
setpoint.
- Press Sel button to display the current setpoint value.
- To increase or to decrease the value of the setpoint, use the Up and Down
buttons.
- Press Sel button to confirm the new value. The display will show "- r01 -".
- Press Prg button three times to exit the setpoint modification procedure. The
display will show again the water tank temperature.

1. On/Off indicator: it indicates when the chiller is turned On.

2. Alarm indicator: this is lit when there is an alarm. Depending on the alarm it can
cause fridge circuit or all the ultracool unit to stop. The display will show the alarm
code:
ƒ Alarm code FL: Wrong power supply phase sequence, low water level alarm
or pump overload.
ƒ Alarm code A1: Antifreeze alarm.
ƒ Alarm code LP1: Low refrigerant pressure.
ƒ Alarm code HP1: High refrigerant pressure.
ƒ Alarm code Ht: High water temperature.
ƒ Alarm code E1,E2: Sensor disconnected, short-circuited or faulty.
ƒ Alarm code EPr : EEPROM error during operation.
ƒ Alarm code EPb: EEPROM error at start-up.
ƒ Alarm code ELS: Low supply voltage.
ƒ Alarm code EHS:.High supply voltage.

3. Glycol warning: this indicator is lit when the working conditions of the chiller
require ethylene glycol as antifreeze agent in the water circuit to avoid freezing. Be
sure that the water mixture has the suitable ethylene glycol concentration when this lit
is on. Please check point 2.4 from this manual to adjust the ethylene glycol
concentration of the water mixture according to the ambient temperature and antifreeze
set point.

4. Pump On indicator: this remains lit when the pump is working.

5. Compressor On indicator: this remains lit when the compressor is working.

6. Compressor timer indicator: when “1” blinks it means that the thermostat is
delaying the compressor’s start. Once the compressor starts “1” is fixed.

9.1 Water quality

In order to protect the water circuit of the ultracool units, the water to be
cooled must have specific physical/chemical properties so that it is not
aggressive. If this water is outside any of the limits listed in the table
below, it can seriously damage some of the materials of the ultracool
unit.
Parameter Limit values
pH 7–8
Total Hardness (TH) < 150 ppm
Conductivity 50 – 500 µS/cm
NH3 < 2 ppm
Total iron ions (Fe2+ and Fe3+) < 0.2 ppm
Chloride (Cl-) < 300 ppm
H2S < 0.05 ppm
Solid particles < 150 µm
Ethylene glycol Min 15% - Max 30%

The Total Hardness is specified in ppm (mg/L) of Ca2CO3.

Please note that ultra pure waters like deionised water can also be
harmful for some of the materials of the ultracool units as they have a
conductivity below 50 µS/cm.
A concentration of ethylene glycol higher than the 30% can seriously
damage the pump of the ultracool units.
Lauda Ultracool S.L. will not accept any warranty for any damage
caused by water that is out of one or more of the above limits.

9.2 60 Hz version-Adjustments for 208V operating voltage.

The 60 Hz version of the UC-140 Indigo has a standard operating voltage of 230V (See
section 2.7: Electrical connection), but it is also possible to work with a power supply of
208 V. All the chiller’s motors are UL approved and can work without any problem at
208V. However, some adjustments are needed on the control circuit and this
intervention has to be carried out by qualified personnel.

To adjust the unit for an input voltage of 208V/3~/60Hz the electrical connection of the
transformer located in the upper left corner of the electrical box has to be modified.

To adjust the unit at 208V/3~/60Hz the inlet wires to the control transformer must be
modified. Unscrew the wire from the transformer terminal 4, and connect it to the
transformer terminal 3. Then, unscrew the wire from the transformer terminal 6,
and connect it to the transformer terminal 7. This is shown in the following pictures:

Refrifluid B
CHARACTERISTICS
Refrifluid B is a fluid specially designed for the treatment, cleaning and conservation of the inside of tanks and
piping in water coolers, especially when it is necessary to avoid bacteria, algae and fungi growing.
Its composition has been specially designed to accomplish three different objectives:
- It includes a widely effective bactericide, algaecide and fungicide based on non-corrosive quaternary
ammonium components.
- It can be used adding a little quantity of the product directly into the water tank.
- It contains an anticorrosive, which covers all metallic surfaces with a thin film, protecting them from
corrosion.

USE AND CARE

It must be used in small quantities. The maintenance concentration has to be in the proportion 1:50 (1 litre of
refrifluid B for each 50 litres of water) and it has to be added at least once per year (refilling the tank with new
water).
When the system requires to be cleaned, due to the bacteria, algae and fungi growth, the proportions should be
higher (1:15 – 1:25). In such case, besides, it would be recommended to use before the product DA8, for carry over
the incrusted organic material. Afterwards it is possible to fill in again the tank and set up the unit.
