2. OPERAING PRECAUTIONS

(1) Stop timing of auxiliary equipments


During the dilution cycle operation of the Chiller, the chilled water pump (both the primary side and
the secondary side) and air handling unit must be operated for the necessary time. The Chiller has a
little cooling capacity even if it is in the dilution cycle operation. Do not stop the air handling unit
before the necessary time to prevent possible chilled water freezing.
Connect the operation signal wires from the chiller to the chilled water pump and cooling water
pump. Each pump must be automatically operated by the chiller signal.

(2) Freeze protection of chilled water, hot water and cooling water
In winter, ensure that the chilled and cooling water in the pipes does not freeze during chiller
shutdown.
There is a possibility of chilled water freezing by a remaining cooling capacity within 1 hour after the
Chiller stops completely.

(3) Chilled water flow through the chiller


Don’t flow chilled water over 40% of the rated value at the chiller starting. Otherwise, chiller will not
start because it cannot check the flow switch contact switching from off to on.

(4) Temperature of cooling water during operation


Keep the cooling water entering temperature above 21oC / 69.8oF and above 24oC / 75.2oF for a
process setting machine.
During the start-up process however, a lower temperature is allowable until the operating condition
becomes normal.
If the chiller operates during intermediate season or in winter, provide an automatic three-way
control valve to the bypass piping of cooling tower.
When the chiller operates during intermediate season or in winter, there is a possibility of safety stop
with alarm in the case that cooling water inlet temperature does not reach the rated condition within
30 min. after starting chiller operation.

(5) Power supply during the shutdown period


Don’t cut the power supply during the shutdown period.
Refer to “2-2.Precautions after the chiller shutdown”.

(6) Control procedures for auxiliary equipments


Refer to “2-3 Control procedures for auxiliary equipments”.

(7) Action after the power fail recovery


Refer to “2-4 Action in case of the power failure”.

(8) Periodic check of safety devices


Safety devices need periodic check for safety use. We recommend performing these by our service
engineer. The contents of periodic check are indicated in section 5.

(9) Monitoring of the operating condition


In case the chilled water outlet temperature is not lowered to the set value for a while, the heat input
may not be sufficient or the chilled water may be overloaded. In order to prevent any damage or
failure to the Chiller in such cases, make sure to check the operating conditions and the state of
Chiller.

2-1
2-1. PRECAUTIONS WITHIN 1 HOUR AFTER THE CHILLER STOP

(1) Never operate the cooling water pump within 1 hour after the chiller stop. Otherwise, there is a
possibility of chilled water freezing in the evaporator tube. Please operate the cooling water pump
automatically by a signal from the chiller.

(2) If you operate the cooling water pump within 1 hour after the chiller stop, the chilled water pump will
operate automatically to prevent chilled water freezing. Caution labels are put on the control pane
of chiller and field supply panel.

CAUTION CAUTION
• Do not run the cooling water pump manually In case the cooling water pump is operated
within 1 hour after complete stop of the chiller. manually within 1 hour after the complete stop of
• Do not run the cooling water pump manually
during the chiller operation. (including dilution the chiller, the chilled water pump also runs
sequence) automatically for chiller protection purpose.
Only pump operation interlocked by the chiller
is permitted.
• Please make sure the above to prevent serious
problem i.e. chiller water freezing and the tube
burst.

(3) When the chiller is used for cooling and you want to operate the cooling water pump within 1 hour
after the chiller shutdown for preventing cooling water freezing, be sure to operate the chilled water
pump at the same time for preventing chilled water freezing.

2-2. PRECAUTIONS AFTER THE CHILLER SHUTDOWN

Don’t cut the power supply during the chiller is stopping.


-The chiller is watching vacuum level all the time.
-The chiller has a battery to maintain operating time and date during power failure. If power failure
continues for a long time, there is a possibility that the battery runs down.

2-3. CONTROL PROCEDURES FOR AUXILIARY EQUIPMENTS

(1) On-off control of the auxiliary equipments such as chilled water pump, cooling water pump, cooling
tower fan and hot water pump shall be linked to the absorption chiller operation for the safety of the
absorption chiller.

(2) It is necessary to operate the auxiliary equipments following the interlocking signal from the chiller.
Those equipments and the chiller shall be wired according to the manufacture’s specified wiring
diagram. The chiller includes “chilled water pump on-off signal” and “cooling water pump on-off
signal” and “hot water pump on-off signal” as standard equipment system.

(3) The chiller also includes “cooling tower fan on-off signal” as standard.

Detailed procedure

(1) At the start of the chiller “chilled water pump on-off signal” and “hot water pump on-off signal”
become ON.
(2) Chilled water pump starts in conjunction with the above signal.
(3) This makes the answerback signal return to the chiller.
(4) The chiller control system confirms if the chilled water flow rate is enough.
(5) By clearing the step 3 and 4, both the “cooling water pump on-off signal” and “cooling tower on-off
signal” become ON.
(6) Cooling water pump and cooling tower fan operate.
(7) Interlock signal of the cooling water pump returns to the chiller.
(8) The chiller control system confirms if the cooling water flow rate is enough.
(9) By clearing the step 7 and 8, the chiller operates normally.
(10) Operate the air handling units.
(11) If the above process from 1 to 8 takes more than 10 minutes, interlock alarm comes ON and the
chiller stops operation.
(12) When the chiller receives a stop signal during operation, it starts dilution cycle.
(13) In 1 to 5 minutes after starting the dilution cycle, “cooling water pump on-off signal” and “cooling
tower on-off signal” become OFF.
(14) Cooling water pump and cooling tower fan shall stop.
(15) In one minute the signal of “chilled water pump on-off signal” become OFF but it keeps operating
status with the alarm J-29 “cooling water pump operation malfunction” if cooling water pump does
not stop.
(16) Chilled water pump and Hot water pump shall stop.
(17) Stop the air handling units after completing the step 16.
(18) In 4 to 9 minutes after the step 16, the chiller completes the dilution cycle and stops operation
entirely.
(19) Period of the dilution cycle is 6 minutes at shortest and 15 minutes at longest in cooling mode.
(20) If the ON signal of “cooling water pump on-off signal” comes to the chiller during the period
between the stopping of chilled water pump and the entire shutdown of the chiller or within one
hour after the entire shutdown of the chiller, “chilled water pump on-off signal” becomes ON and
chilled water pump is forced to operate to prevent the chilled water freezing. In this case the alarm
J-29 “cooling water pump operation malfunction” occurs simultaneously.
(21) After one hour of the entire shutdown of the chiller, “chilled water pump on-off signal” or alarm
signals shall not be output even if the ON signal of “cooling water pump interlock signal” comes to
the chiller.

Note
(1) Air handling units shall be stopped after confirming stopping of the chilled water circulation.
(2) Cooling water circulation shall be completely stopped whenever the chilled water stops its
circulation.
(3) Confirmation of the cooling water flow rate is possible with an optional specification of a cooling
water flow switch. (step 8)
(4) The “cooling tower fan on-off signal” should be controlled with cooling water temperature therefore
interlock between the fan and the chiller is not necessary.
(5) Never operate the cooling water pump within one hour after the entire shutdown of the chiller.
Otherwise, the chilled water pump is forced to operate to prevent the chilled water freezing.

2. Analysis of water quality
Check the water quality of make up water to satisfy the water quality guideline “JRA GL-02-1994”.
About the analysis of water quality, contact a water treatment company.

3. Method of water treatment


(1) Blow down
Manage the recycling water quality to satisfy the water quality guideline “JRA GL-02-1994”.
(2) Addition of anticorrosive
Contact a water treatment company.

4. Precaution
In case of using a black pipe for cooling water line or chilled water line, use an anticorrosive for
black pipe to prevent adherence of the iron rust on copper tubes of the chiller.

(1) Adherence of fouling like the iron rust on copper tube may cause a corrosion. It is necessary to
add an anticorrosive for copper tube. Consult a water treatment company.
(2) Do not install the cooling tower near an exhaust gas outlet or ventilation port. Otherwise, the
quality of cooling water becomes poor and it causes corrosion problems.
(3) In case of installing a heat storage tank in chilled water line, there is a possibility to cause a
corrosion on the tubes by oxygen in chilled water or fouling of the heat storage tank. Install a
heat exchanger between the heat storage tank and the chiller or consult a service agent.
(4) When flashing of piping is performed at the first time, bypass the chiller to prevent foreign matter
from getting into it.
(5) In case of installing the chiller into an existing facility, there is a possibility to prevent a forming
the anti corrosion film on copper tubes by influence of a fouling of the existing piping. Consult
the service agent about the water treatment of post replacement.

6. Typical water treatment

Even if make-up water for cooling water meets the water standards, the water quality gets worse by
its concentration, therefore the following water treatment is necessary. To varying degrees, chilled
water also requires this treatment. In case of an application of concrete heat storage tank, special
attention should be paid to water treatment.

① Periodic and continuous blow down by make-up water


② Automatic blow down by electric conductance
③ Addition of the anticorrosive
④ Slime control
⑤ Periodic water analysis

Overhaul the water headers periodically, check heat transfer tubes and clean them as necessary.

For example, if 0.6mm of scale clings to


tube, cooling capacity drops to 76%, and
Steam consumption

5-3-2. Water Treatment for long term shut down


Perform the following treatment during long term shut down with no-circulation of chilled/hot water,
cooling water in the Chiller. Consult the service agent for details.

(1) Cooling water


Keep the cooling water full in the Chiller. (Wet lay up)
In case the freezing of cooling water is likely to occur, drain it from the Chiller. (Dry lay up)
Operation of a valve of the chiller is different between wet lay up and dry lay up.

Wet lay up
1. Discharge cooling water from its discharge port on the cooling water outlet.
2. Check the holding water quantity and decide the anticorrosive quantity so that the mixture
fraction is appropriate. Pour anticorrosive into the water.
3. Fill up the absorber/condenser.
4. Operate the cooling water pump until anticorrosive is evenly mixed.
5. Close the isolation valves of inlet and outlet on the cooling water line.

Dry lay up
1. Discharge cooling water from its discharge port on the cooling water outlet.
2. Remove the scale and/or slime adhesion in the tubes by nylon brush cleaning. (If scale
and/or slime cannot be removed, perform chemical cleaning.)
3. After sufficient washing, pour anticorrosive into the water, and circulate it for 30 minutes or
more. (The concentration of anticorrosive should be even.)
5-6
4. Discharge the water from the discharge port on the cooling water inlet.
5. Keep the discharge port open during shut down.

(2) Chilled water


Keep the evaporator full with the water. (Wet lay up)

(3) Hot water


Keep the generator full with the water. (Wet lay up)

5-3-3. Winter season


In case the ambient temperature of the Chiller is likely to be below 0℃, freeze protection is
necessary.
Consult the service agent for details.
