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.
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.

(1) The item appellation and its definition and the unit belong to JIS K 0101.
(2) The “yes” in the chart show the factor relevant to corrosion or scale genesis.
(3) When high temperature (over 40oC);generally, using corrosive steel, materials which have no
protective coating against water, anticorrosive measure shall be done such as adding corrosion
prevention material, degasser and etc.
(4) Under the Cooling water system with hermetically-closed cooling tower; the closed-circuit
circulating water and its Makeup water are based on Hot water standard, spreading water and
its Makeup water are based on circulating Cooling water system.
(5) Supplied / replenished water needs to be tap water or industrial water or groundwater.
Deionized water, regeneration treated water and softening treated water are excluded.
(6) Upper15 items are shown as a typical factor for corrosion and/or scale genesis.
[Note 1] Each item of the standard values may cause a failure due to corrosion or scale and if any
item deviates from the standard value, it is assumed that corrosion or scale tends to be
caused, therefore, these should be periodically managed.
[Note 2] As the range of the water quality which may become usable if the water is processed
differs depending on the chemicals to be used, it is not given here. It is desirable to set
the appropriate water quality management values under the guidance of a water
processing specialist and periodically manage the water quality.

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

4. Discharge the water from the discharge port on the cooling water inlet.
5. Keep the discharge port open during shut down.
These replacement cycle have been assumed in consideration of performing a periodic maintenance.
