Acc. to the operating range of the machine Cooling & Heating Capability and Power Consumption GB/T18430.1-2001 Compressor start/stop interval Started or stopped less than 6 times within hour; run time at 6 minutes, and stop time over 5 minutes. Water quality Acc. to water quality standard Water flow Acc. to the operating range of the machine Water pressure Below 0.1MPa Install place Outdoors (Necessary protection shall be provided in event of snow or rain). Drainage Drainage pipe must be connected to the site, and drainage ditch must be set beside the installation foundation. 1.9 Principle of Cooling System Cooling Cycle: The compressor absorbs the low-pressure overheated refrigerant stem from the evaporator and compresses it into high-temperature high-pressure overheated steam, which is then heat radiated to the environment via the condenser (air-cooled heat exchanger) and condensed to saturated or overcooled refrigerant liquids. After throttling and pressure reduction via the expansion valve, the liquid is flown into the evaporator (shell-type heat exchanger). It is vaporized after absorbing the heats of the refrigerant water and then absorbed into the compressor for compression and start of a new cycle. In this way, the refrigerant water via the evaporator is cooled and blown to the air conditioning area. Heat Pump Cycle: The refrigerant flow is in reverse direction in application of the 4-way valve. Via the 4-way valve, the high-temperature high-pressure refrigerant steam from the compressor is directly discharged to shell-type heat exchanger for radiation of heats to the refrigerant water, thus generating the effect of heating. The condensed refrigerant liquid flows via the expansion valve for pressure reduction and then vaporized after absorbing the environment heats in the air-cooled heat exchanger. Then, it is again absorbed into the compressor to form heat pump cycle. For detail flowchart, please see Fig. 2-1 and Fig. 2-2. 15

Three pipe systems are available for the fan coil unit water system, as described below:
Fan Coil Unit Water System
Pipe System and Connection Features Range of Application
Two-Pipe System Fig. a & b One for water supply and one for water return; supplying cold water in summer and warm water in winter; simple; less investment; large difference in cold and warm water flow Air conditioning system to operate through the year, just needed to switch between the cooling and heating according to season; widest application at present
Three-Pipe System Fig. c The coil inlet is installed with a 3-way valve controlled by indoor temperature controller, thus to supply cold water or warm water as needed. Share of the same water return pipe, disadvantaged in mixed loss of heats; high initial investment Application where the air conditioner is to operate through the year and the loads within the building are highly different; in transition season when some rooms need cold air and some rooms need heats; less application at present.
Four-Pipe System Fig. d & e
Occupation of large space; lower operating cost than three-pipe system; adding of one water return pipe or adoption of two coil units for cooling and heating, so that the water supply system is fully independent; high initial investment
Application where the air conditioner is to operate through the year and the loads within the building are highly different; in transition season when some rooms need cold air and some rooms need heats, or the cooling and heating is frequently switched. To simplify the system and cut down the investment, the main system in equipment room is designed of four-pipe system while all vertical pipes are designed of two-pipe system, so as to supply the cold or warm water per the direction.
Over 1.8m 69 Fig. a Fig. b Fig. c Fig. d
Fig. e Fan Coil Unit Water System Diagram Take the following into consideration when designing the fan coil unit water system: A. In the high-rise building, the water system shall be vertically divided by zone according to its pressure bearing capability (Each zone can be high up to 100m). For two-pipe system, the zone shall also be divided per orientation for easier adjustment. If the ratio of pipe resistance to fan coil unit resistance is approx. 1:3, straight water return (different distance) may be used; otherwise it is suggested to use same-distance water return (same distance). For the application where the pressure in water loop varies largely, balance vale may be used for adjustment. B. In the application where the fan coil unit is used to high-rise building, the water system shall be in closed-loop circulation, and the expansion valve of the expansion tank shall be connected to the water return pipe. The pipe shall be of certain gradient and the exhaust and sewage devices shall taken into consideration. 4.3.2. Adjustment of Water System 1. Installation of two-way solenoid valve at the inlet of fan coil unit As shown in Fig. a, the use of this method to adjust the water flow will cause the total water flow of Cool Heat Cool Heat Cool Heat Cool Heat Cool Heat Return Water Thermostat Thermostat Cool Heat 70 the system to change. Too low the system water flow will result in chiller fault. Various control methods are available to ensure that the water flow returning to the chiller remains unchanged. The common method is to add one pressure differential by-pass valve between the water supply and return collecting pipes. 2. Installation of three-way solenoid valve at the inlet of fan coil unit As shown in Fig. b, if this method is used to adjust the water flow, the total water flow of the system will be unchanged though the flow into the coil is changed. 4.3.3 Design Principle for Air Conditioning Water System The air conditioning water system shall be designed according to the principle below: l Keep the water power balanced; l Avoid large flow but low temperature difference; l The water transport factor shall conform to the specification requirements; l Use of variable frequency adjustment for variable flow system; l Proper solution to the expansion and exhaust of water system; l Proper solution to the water treatment and water filtering; l Close care on the heat insulation performance of the pipeline; l Correct water flow rate within the pipe. 1. The water system shall so designed that the water power of each loop is kept balanced. Technical Requirements: The air conditioning water system shall be so designed that the water power of each loop is kept balanced. Secondary circulating pump shall be provided for the highly resistant loop in which the pressure varies largely. Each loop shall be provided with balance valve, three-way diverter or other balance device. If permissible by the area of pipe shaft, it is best to arrange the pipe in vertically same distance. 2. Avoid large flow but low temperature difference Reasons causing large flow but low temperature difference: Generally, the designed water flow is determined according to the maximum designed cooling loads (or heating loads) based on a temperature difference of 5! (or 10!) between the supply water and return water. Actually, the occurrence of maximum designed cooling loads (or heating loads), i.e. full-load operation, is very short, and the unit runs under partial load in majority of the time. The lift of the water pump is generally determined according to the farthest loop and highest resistance multiplying a specific safety coefficient. Then based on the designed flow above, find out the identical nameplate ratings and determine the pump model, but not determining 71 the pump model according to the pump characteristics curve. Therefore in practical operation, the actual working point of the water pump is on the lower right side. As a result, the actual water flow is 20-50% higher than the designed value. In the design of a large water system, it is usual that the water power balance is not calibrated for each loop during computation. For the loops that the pressure varies largely, most of them are not installed with the balance device such as the balance valve, and no commissioning is made after installation works. The mal-adjustment of water power conditions and thermal power conditions caused by the resistance imbalance between the loops has to be covered up under large flow. How to avoid large flow and small temperature difference: Considering that it is difficult to maintain stringent water power balance between the loops and there are many uncertain factors during installation, balance valve or other balance devices shall be provided in each loop, so as to maintain satisfactory water power balance during actual operation. In event that the pressure in one or several loops varies largely from the other loops (e.g. resistance difference above 10kpa), a secondary circulation pump shall be added on these loops. 3. Expansion, water feeding, water discharge and exhaust of the water system A. Expansion of water system The chilled water system of the air conditioner is an enclosed system. Therefore, it is a requisite to find a good solution to the water expansion caused by temperature change. An expansion tank shall be designed at the position 1-2m higher than the highest point of the water return pipe. The volume of the expansion tank depends on the system capacity. It is general to select the standard water tank with a volume 0.2-4.0m3. If the water system is huge, the volume of the expansion tank may be increased. The expansion tank is installed with expansion pipe, feed pipe, overflow pipe and drain pipe, as well as the water level controller or floating ball valve. B. Feeding and discharge of the water system The injection and feeding of water into water system shall be realized via expansion tank. Therefore, the expansion pipe shall be separately connected to the return water mains (or water collector) in the cooling station. In this way, the water can be injected via the expansion tank no matter for initial water injection upon system installation or for feeding of water during normal operation. The injection of water for the entire water system shall be done from the lower to the higher, starting from the return water mains (or water collector) at the lower 72 position, so that the air in the pipe system can be dispelled from lower to upper via the exhaust valve and expansion valve. To save the labors and materials in many projects, the expansion pipe of the expansion tank is connected to the water return pipe at the higher position, causing it difficult to dispel the air out of the system and resulting in long instability of water supply pressure. For complete drain of the water out of the pipe during repair, the drain valve of the water system shall be located at the lowest position of the system (the lowest position of the water collector or chiller water pipe). C. Air exhaust for water system Automatic drain valve shall be mounted to the highest point at the end of the fan coil unit and the water return pipe of fresh air unit installed on each floor of the building. If the pipe has many bends as the loop is long, or some pipe is subjected to up and down bend in order to avoid the fire pipes, fresh air ducts or the large cables in the ceiling, automatic exhaust valve shall be mounted to the highest position of the bend. One of the common defects for the water system in hotel is that the air is mixed into the water and cannot be easily dispelled. This is caused by that the automatic exhaust valve is too few or it is located to incorrect position. 4. Water treatment and water filtering in water system Some designers do not attach importance to the water treatment for the air conditioning system in civil building. Subjected to the bicarbonates, bacteria and algae substances, the chilled water and cooling water in long cycling will cause scaling or corrosion to the heat exchange equipment of the chiller unit, e.g. evaporator and condenser. This will increase the thermal resistance of the equipment, reduce the cooling capacity and shorten the service life. Water Treatment: Use of drug and electronic way for water treatment has good effect. The drug is mostly used for water treatment in cooling water system, available in common type, corrosion inhibition and scaling inhibition. The electronic water treatment can not only suitable to the cooling water system, but also suitable to the chilled water system (water as refrigerant). The electronic water treatment instrument can be installed on the pipes sized DN12-DN300, and its performance is quite obvious. It has been widely applied to many projects. Water Filtering: It is extremely important to install water filter in the water system to remove the dusty fiber, brick blocks or vegetarian scraps from the circulating water. The common filters include metal mesh, nylon meshwork filter, Y-type pipe filter, etc. During operation of water system, the filter shall be periodically cleaned to ensure that the water channel is 73 smooth. 5. Cold insulation and heat insulation of the pipeline Loss of cold (heat) energy may be caused due to improper quality and thickness of the cold (heat) insulation materials designed for the air conditioning pipes or due to improper construction. And this will also cause a lot of condensing water in summer thus affecting the environment. A. Economic cold insulation thickness of the air conditioner chilled water pipe The economic cold insulation thickness of the chilled water pipe shall be in accordance with the specifications in GB50189-93, and shall not be lower than the data below: Economic cold insulation thickness of the chilled water pipe Cold insulation material Chilled water supply time in one year (h) Nominal Dia. /mm Economic cold insulation thickness / mm 15-150 30 2880 200-350 40 15-50 30 3600 65-350 40 15-80 40 Mineral wool shell
Glass wool shell 4320 100-350 50 B. Economic cold insulation thickness of the air conditioner heat supply pipe It is specified in GB50189-93 that the thickness shall not be lower than the value below. Economic cold insulation thickness of the air conditioner heat supply pipe Heat insulation material Nominal Dia./mm Economic cold insulation thickness /mm 15-25 20 Mineral wool shell 32-150 30 Glass wool shell 200-950 40 C. The economic heat insulation thickness of the chilled-and-heat water supply pipe may be in accordance with the heat insulation thickness of the chilled water pipe. The economic thickness of the chilled-and-heat water supply pipe may be selected according to the value below. 6. Selection of water flow rate in the pipe The flow rate of the water has significant impact on the loss of resistance in water system. A proper flow rate shall be selected for the pipe system, in order to avoid increasing the pressure loss and resistance loss due to too high flow rate, thus increasing the lift and power of the water pump. But avoid selecting too low the flow rate and thus increase the pipe diameter which may result in increased cost of the pipe materials and fittings. 74 Recommended Flow Rate: Pipe Type Recommended Flow Rate Pipe Type Recommended Flow Rate Pump suction pipe 1.2-2.1 Collecting pipe 1.2-4.5 Water outlet pipe of pump 2.4-3.6 Drainage pipe 1.2-2.0 General water supply mains 1.5-3.0 From urban water supply pipe 0.9-2.0 Indoor water supply standpipe 0.9-3.0 Natural water transport 0.6-1.5 4.3.4. Installation of Water System 4.3.4.1 Connection of water system Take care on the following points when connecting the water system: (1) Take care on the marks identifying the inlet and outlet pipe of the shell heat exchanger. Avoid connecting the pipes wrong. (2) To reduce vibration, flexible connector shall be installed on inlet and outlet pipe of the chilled water. (3) Thermometer, pressure gauge and check valve shall be installed at inlet and outlet of the chilled water. (4) To ensure normal operation of the machine, water switch must be installed on the water pipe and suggested to interlock with the machine controller. (5) Drainage pipe shall be installed on the outlet water pipe. Manual or automatic exhaust valve shall be installed at the highest position or protrusion of the water circulation system. When the machine is in normal operation, it is best to remove the valve handle to ensure that the valve cannot be adjusted. Opening of drain valve during operation will cause water cutoff accident. (6) After the pressure test of pipe system is completed, heat insulation layer shall be coated to the inlet and outlet pipe to reduce the thermal loss and effectively avoid exposure. (7) It is unavoidable that some foreign particles or dirt may be mixed into the water system. These particles will cause scaling to the shell heat exchanger. Therefore, filter shall be installed before the water pump. (8) When cleaning the water pipe, it is required to by pass the machine in order to avoid the sewage flowing into the system. (9) In winter application where the ambient temperature is very low, stop of the machine at night will cause the water to ice within the shell evaporator and pipe thus damaging the equipment and pipes. To avoid freezing, it is prohibited to cut off the power if the machine is stopped at night; otherwise the auto antifreeze protection of the machine cannot be activated. The safest way is to drain the water completely out of the pipe or add the mixture of ethanol and propanol for antifreeze. 75 CAUTION: To avoid corrosion and damage to the machine, never use salt mixture. 4.3.4.2 Antifreeze of Water System 1.

2. How to compute the dosage of antifreeze fluid: M NV = (kg) M(kg)--------Total mass of glycol to be added to the water system under specific freezing temperature; N(kg/m 3 )---- Mass of glycol to be added per every cubic meter under specific freezing temperature (See above) V(m 3 )-------- Total volume of the water system 3. Operating Method: 1) Open the sewage valve to drain the sewage and foreign particles completely out of the system. Wash the filter clean and mount it properly. 2) For the machine with water tank, just add antifreeze fluid into the tank and feed the water to the water system. 3) For the machine without water tank, you may mount a three-way valve to the highest position of water system and add antifreeze fluid into the system. Then, seal it properly and feed water to the system via water feeding valve. 4) To avoid back flow, check valve must be installed behind all water feeding valves. 5) Take care on the system exhaust when feeding water to the system. 6) Maintennace the water system every two years. 4.3.4.3 Control of water quality Little scale will be generated if industrial water is used for chilling. But if well water or river water is used, many sediments like water scale and sands will be generated if the water quality is poor. Existence of sands and soil in the evaporator will reduce the water flow and cause freezing. Therefore, such water shall be filtered and softened before it can be used as air conditioner water. Before use, make analysis of its PH value, electrical conductivity, chlorine ion concentration and sulfide ion concentration. Below is the required water quality standard for the machine. Item Index Item Index PH Value (25 ) ! 7.5~9.5 Full hardness (per CaCO3) (mg/L) 10~40 Cl-(mg/L) <50 SO42-(mg/L) <50 Fe(mg/L) <1.0 Total alkalinity (per CaCO3)(mg/L) 15~40 Cu2+(mg/L) <0.1 NH4+ <0.1 76 4.3.4.4 Install Sketch for the Machine and Chilled Water System B y - p a s s

(2) Connection of control circuit Connect the AC contactor control wire and water switch of the water pump and auxiliary electric heater to the electrical control system correctly. (3) The main power supply shall be connected 8 hours before startup of the machine and be kept energized in working season, so that the heating strip of the compressor can be heated when the compressor is not started and the refrigerant fluid within the compressor can be vaporized. This will avoid adverse impact of direct startup to the compressor. (4) Make sure that the machine is securely earthed. (5) Power requirements: a) The power capacity shall be enough high, and the cable section area shall be enough big. b) The earthing shall be secure. The earth cable shall be connected to the special earthing device on the construction, and must be installed by professional technicians. Do not connect the earth cable to gas pipe, water pipe, lightning arrestor or telephone earth wire. c) The cables must be installed by professional technicians according to national cabling rules. d) In the fixed circuit, leakage protection switch or air switch with enough power capacity shall be installed. For detailed electrical installation and operation, please refer to chapter 2. 4.5 Commissioning and Test Run Commissioning of the machine is started after completion of the installation, pipe connection and electrical installation. The startup commissioning and run operation must be performed under the supervision and instructions of GREE's designated personnel. WARNING: The machine can execute control over the chilled water pump. But before commissioning, it is prohibited to control the test run of the water pump via the main unit. The test 78 run of the above equipment may be executed via temporary connections. The purpose of test run is to deliver the machine to the user free of any defect. 4.5.1 Checks before commissioning (1) Check the installation of the machine: Before commissioning, check the install location, environment, foundation and maintenance space of the machine for compliance with the requirements. (2) Check the water system: A) Check the heat insulation, wash and water quality of the chilled water pipe for compliance with the requirements. B) Check the water pump flow, cutoff valve, sewage valve, water filter, exhaust valve and water switch for compliance with the requirements. C) Check if the initial status of the water system, e.g. pressure gauge value and thermometer value, conform to the requirements prior to commissioning. (3) Check the air conditioning loads A) Check the end air treatment system for correct connection. B) Check if the air outlet is smooth. C) Check if the enclosing and heat insulation of the load space conform to the requirements. D) Check if the air conditioning loads are matched to the machine. (4) Check the wiring: Each machine shall be provided with special power source as required on the nameplate. After cable connection, please check the following items: A) Check if the specifications of the cable connection and air switch are correct. B) Check if the circuit installation conforms to the requirements. C) Check the circuit for any wrong connection. D) Check if the interlock function is normal. E) Check if the contactor can work normally. (5) Check the power supply and insulation of the power source. (6) Check the initial setting of the control and protection elements for compliance with the requirements. WARNING: It is prohibited to start up the unit before completing the checks.
4.5.2 Test Run After the check before commissioning is completed, the machine can be entered into the test run. : If the temperature is low or the machine has been put out of use for a long time, the machine shall be energized to activate the heating strip of the compressor (Do not start the compressor). The heating time shall not be shorter than 8 hours. (2) Adjust the flow regulation valve on the chilling water system or the inlet cutoff valve of the machine, making the water flow of the system up to the operating requirements. (3) From the operating display, check the fault records of the machine. If any fault, eliminate it 79 after check. Press down the START button to start the machine after ensuring that the machine is free of any fault and verifying that the setting of controller parameter is correct. (Please refer to the Controller Guideline for detail). (4) After the machine is started, check the rotating direction of the compressor. If in reverse rotation, please adjust the wires on two phases of the power cable. Check the lubricating oil in the compressor. The oil in the mirror shall be kept on visible level. (5) Maintain the test run for 30 minutes. After that, set the water inlet temperature according to the user loads and actual conditions of the water system, ensuring that the machine operation is normal. Stop the machine and restart it after 10 minutes, thus to avoid frequent startup of the machine. Finally, check the parameter setting of the operating display and make field records properly as required in the attached form. The test run is then ended. Cautions: 1. When washing the water system, do not start the machine. 2. Before the water system is fully drained, do not start the machine. 3. The water pipe must be installed with water switch. The water switch must be interlocked with the machine; otherwise the fault caused by cutoff of water during operation will be the user's responsibility.

To start the machine, firstly start the water pump and then the main unit. To stop the machine, firstly stop the main unit and then the water pump. Before each startup, supply the power the machine at least 8 hours before startup (Do not start the water pump), so as to enable the heating strip of the compressor to work and make the refrigerant liquids within the evaporator to vaporize; otherwise, direct startup may cause adverse impact to the compressor. 5.1.2 Maintenance of Main Components 1) During operation, take close care on the exhaust and suction pressure of the system. In event of any abnormality, find out the cause and eliminate the trouble. 2) Do not adjust the setting point of the control and protection equipment on site. 3) Periodically check the electrical connection for tightness. If loose, tighten it in time. 4) Periodically check the reliability of the electrical parts. Timely replace the failure and unreliable parts. 5.1.3 Maintenance after a long stop To stop the machine for a long time, wash the internal and external surface of the machine and dry it. Cover up the machine to prevent the dust. Open the drainage valve and drain the water thoroughly out of the shell heat exchanger. To start the machine after a long time of stop, the following preparations shall be made: 1) Check and clean the machine thoroughly. 2) Clean the water pipe system. 3) Check the water pump. 4) Tighten all pipe connectors. 5.1.4 System antifreeze If the flow channel of the shell evaporator is frozen, severe damage may be caused, that is, the shell evaporator may be cracked or leaked. The damage caused by freezing is not covered under the warranty repair. Therefore, attach special importance to antifreeze. 83 The users shall take special care on the following three points: 1) Stop under low ambient temperature: To place the machine in an environment where the outdoor temperature is lower than 0!, the water in the evaporator shall be thoroughly drained. 2) During run: The failure of the chilled water switch and antifreeze temperature sensor may cause the water pipe to freeze. Therefore, the water switch must be interlocked to the machine. 3) During maintenance: When filling refrigerant or draining the refrigerant for repair, the evaporator may be frozen. The pipe may be frozen as long as the pressure of refrigerant within the container is lower than 0.4Mpa. Therefore, make sure to keep the water flowing within the evaporator or drain it thoroughly. 5.1.5 System maintenance cycle To extend the service life of the machine, increase the efficiency and save the energy, it is requisite to carry out periodical inspection, care and maintenance of the machine. The user need to make proper record on the monthly, quarterly and yearly inspection, care and maintenance. The damage and repair shall be recorded in detail, so that the repair personnel can treat the faults easily. The system maintenance cycle is shown below: System Maintenance Cycle Check the lubricating oil level of the compressor Every day Check the water flow (temperature difference between inlet and outlet water) Every day Check the voltage and power supply Every day Check the refrigerant volume (system high pressure and low pressure) Every day Check the cables for tightness and electrical insulation Every quarter Check and adjust the temperature setting Every quarter Check the drying filter Every quarter Replace the compressor oil filter 40000 hours Replace the compressor bearing 40000 hours 5.1.6 Wash the chilled water system After the machine is put into use, the user is suggested to wash the machine and water system periodically. The wash of chilled water system is focused on the biological fouling and corrosion products deposited on the surface of shell-type heat exchanger, inner wall of chilled water pipe, inner wall of fan coil and inside the air conditioner system equipment. The equipment and pipes of chilled water system can be washed in two methods, i.e. physical wash and chemical wash. The chemical wash is mostly adopted, thanks to its easy operation, good effect and non-stop of machine. 84 The chemical wash is a method in which the chemical cleanser is used to resolve, loosen, break off or strip off the deposits on the equipment to be washed. The chemical wash is often used in combination with the physical wash. The cleanser, cycle time, safety considerations and other matters related to the chemical wash shall be specified by the experienced professional company providing the cleanser and wash services. Organic acid may be used, such as formic acid, citric acid and acetic acid. Below is the introduction of the operating steps of chemical wash without stop of the machine: Steps: Bacteria and algae killing acid wash neutralization pre-film a. Bacteria and algae killing For bacteria and algae killing & wash, the biocides with good performance in bacteria killing and biochemical fouling removal shall be selected, e.g. the combined used of sodium hypochlorite and bromo geramineum. Generally, the bacteria and algae killing & wash will last a long time. You may measure the turbidity of the water every 3~4 hours. The wash is ended when the turbidity curve tends to be flat. b. Acid wash The wash begins after the bacteria and algae killing is ended. Select the appropriate inhibitor and pickling agent. Generally, the non-stop wash is carried out at low PH value. Firstly, add the inhibitor to the water system. After the inhibitor is evenly circulated in the water system, add the pickling agent by using the drop method, making the PH value of water slowly drop down and maintain between 2.5~3.5. During acid wash, the concentration of ions in the water shall be periodically measured. Generally, measure every 4 hours at beginning of wash and every 2 hours in the middle and late stage of the wash. The acid wash is ended when the total iron curve tends to be flat. The turbidity curve can be used as the auxiliary means to judge on the end of acid wash. During acid wash, you may add some surfactant and remover to boost the acid wash. After acid wash, fresh water shall be added to the water system, and the waste acids shall be drained fro the sewage port, so as to decrease the turbidity and ferrous ion concentration in the water system. Meanwhile, add a small quantity of NaCO 3 to neutralize the residual acids for better pre-film in the next step. c. Pre-film After the acid wash is ended, feed a specific quantity of pre-film agent to the system for pre-filming. After the pre-filming is ended, dilute and drain the highly concentrated pre-film water by means of adding water, controlling the total phosphorus approx. 10mg/L. Then, turn to normal water treatment. 5.1.7 Clean the fin condenser fins The condenser of the air-cooled scroll unit uses the air-cooled fin heat exchanger. As the machine is installed outdoors, it is unavoidable that the fin may be attached with dust or other foreign particles after a period of use, which will affect the efficiency of the fin heat exchanger. 85 Under COOL mode operation if the fin heat exchanger is dirty and blocked, the high pressure will rise and the cooling efficiency will be reduced, resulting in increased consumption of the energy. Under HEAT mode operation, the low pressure will be decreased and the heating efficiency will be reduced, resulting in rise of the exhaust temperature. All these will cause harm and probable damage to the compressor. Therefore, the condenser shall be generally washed every 10~12 months. If the environment is subject to heavy dust pollution, the cleaning cycle shall be shortened. How to clean: 1) Cut off the power supply. 2) Use waterproof plastics to seal all terminals tightly (including the terminal box of the compressor), ensuring that no water will come in. 3) Use high-pressure gas or water to wash the fins repeatedly in reverse to the air-in or air-out direction of the condenser (If there is oil dirt on the fin, water with neutral detergent shall be used). To avoid reversing of the fins, please keep vertical to the fin direction during wash. 4) When the original color of the fin is seen or the water flowing along the fin is totally clear, the cleaning is then ended. 5.1.8 Replace the drying filter element Always use the replacement parts supplied by GREE. Do not use the similar parts supplied by other companies. Steps to replace the drying filter element: a) Before the machine is stopped, clockwise rotate the rod of angle valve quickly to the bottom and wait until the machine is automatically stopped. Or manually stop the machine after 2 minutes approx. b) Loosen the nut fixing the Freon nozzle on the angle valve and drain the refrigerant out remaining in this section of pipe. Open the end cover of the filter and remove the old element. Replace with a new element and reinstall the end cover. c) Vacuum for 5 minutes approx. from the Freon nozzle on the angle valve. d) Rotate counterclockwise the rod of angle valve quickly to the top. Remove the vacuum connection pipe and tighten the nut. e) Check the end cover and nut for any leakage. Retighten if any leakage. Angle Valve 1 Angle Valve 2 Drying filter element 86 Electronic leakage detector Attachment: Function of liquid sightglass: 1) The liquid sightglass is used to indicate: a) The refrigerant status in the liquid pipe of the refrigerating machine; b) The water content in the refrigerant; c) Check if the pressure drop before and after the drying filter is too high (The liquid sightglass is installed after the drying filter). 2) How to use the liquid sightglass? a) The color of the indicator in the liquid sightglass is not decided by the water content in the refrigerant; b) To thoroughly avoid the impact of moisture and provide effective protection to the system, the green/dry value shall be the maximum admissible value. When the green starts to decolor, this indicates that the color starts to change. Therefore, take closer monitoring on the indicator. c) When the color turns to yellow, the drying filter must be replaced. Z 5.2 Repair 5.2.1. Leakage detection on site 1. Leakage detection by sound When the temperature and pressure of refrigerant in the refrigerating system is high, slight sound may be given out from the leaking position. Find the leaking position by hearing the sound. 2. Leakage detection by visual inspection If finding any oil drop or stain at some position in the refrigerating device of the Freon system, it can be judged that there is Freon leakage at such position. 3. Leakage detection by dense soap water This is the most common method at present and it is also an easy and effective way. Firstly, cut the soap into slices. Immerse the slices into the hot water and stir to resolve them. They can be used after the liquid becomes viscous and light yellow. Upon leakage detection, firstly wash the oil dirt at the position to be detected. Use clean white cloth or hair brush to soak soap water and apply it onto the detection position. Observe after several minutes. If white bubble or foam overflows from the detection position, this indicates that this is leaking point. 4. Detect with halogen detector See the related operating instructions. 5. Detect with electronic halogen detector See the related operating instructions.
87 5.2.2. Vacuuming and Charge of Refrigerant Determine if to charge refrigerant by checking the suction and exhaust pressure. Add refrigerant in event of any leakage. Airtight test shall be carried out upon recharge of refrigerant or replacement of the parts in cooling circulation system. To charge the refrigerant, please identify the following two situations: 1) Recharge refrigerant due to complete leakage In event of this situation, be sure to check the system for leakage by using high pressure nitrogen (15-20kg pressure) or refrigerant. If reweld is needed, be sure to discharge the gas thoroughly out of the system before you can start the welding. Before charging the refrigerant, the entire cooling system must be dry and vacuumed. Follow the steps below: (1) Connect a vacuum pipe to the Freon nozzle on the suction pipe of compressor. (2) Use vacuum pump to vacuumize the system pipeline. (3) When up to the required vacuum level (133Pa), use refrigerant tank to charge liquid refrigerant into the cooling system via the Freon nozzle on the suction pipe of the compressor. The required quantity of refrigerant is noted on the nameplate and data sheet. (4) The refrigerant charge varies with the ambient temperature. If not up to the required quantity, you may also charge from the Freon nozzle on the suction pipe of compressor when the unit is started. 2) Add refrigerant Connect the refrigerant tank to the Freon nozzle on the suction pipe of compressor. (1) Enable the chilled water to circulate and then start the unit. (2) Open the valve on the refrigerant tank and slowly charge the refrigerant into the system by means of liquid charge. Check the suction and exhaust pressure. CAUTIONS: When making leakage detection and airtight test, never charge the flammable and poisonous gas, such as oxygen or acetylene, into the cooling system. Use the high-pressure nitrogen or refrigerant only.
88 High-pressure tank Use of pressure gauge Oil filling valve 5.2.3. Fill and discharge of lubricating oil After a long operation, the lubricating oil may be deteriorated. In this case, the oil will turn from colorless to yellow, or may be seen some floccule deposits, resulting in poor lubrication. Under this circumstance, the old oil shall be drained and fresh oil shall be filled. @1A Filling of lubricating oil Generally, there are three ways to fill the lubricating oil, available for selection according to situations. 1A Open filling Firstly, short circuit the low-pressure controller. Start up the machine and close the suction valve. Vacuum the low pressure side to 0.01Mpa approx. stop the compressor and close the exhaust valve. The refrigerant is absorbed into the system pipeline. Then, slightly introduce the refrigerant from the suction cutoff valve and then close the suction valve. Finally, loosen the bolts on the exhaust cutoff valve and move the exhaust valve slightly from the compressor. After that, pour the lubricating oil into the compressor from the valve connector. Check the oil sightglass and fill the oil up to normal level (approx. 2/3 of the upper part of oil sightglass). 2A Closed filling Firstly, connect the multi-purpose pressure gauge. Connect one end of the pressure gauge to the oil filling valve and another end to the middle hose. The middle hose is placed in the lubricating oil container, dispelling the air out of the hose by utilizing the high pressure inside the compressor. Close the suction and short connect the low pressure controller. Start up the compressor and discharge the refrigerant from the rotor box into the condenser. When the pressure gauge shows some vacuum, stop the compressor. Close the exhaust valve and use the multi-purpose pressure gauge to absorb the lubricating oil into the rotor housing. Observe the oil level. At this moment, do not move the hose from the oil level, thus to prevent the 3)Use of oil pump or oil fun to fill oil This is an oil filling method common for semi-hermetic screw compressor. The procedure is as below: 89 Use of oil gun to fill oil End cover of oil filter a. Connect the oil pump (oil gun) to the oil charge valve (closed) on the compressor. Do not connect too tight. Start the oil pump (push the rod of oil gun) until the oil overflows from the connector of oil charge valve (The air is completely discharged out of the pump). Then, tighten this connector. This connector must be able to completely isolate the exterior air and prevent the air from entering the oil and further into the machine. b. Open the oil charge valve and start up the oil pump (push the rod of oil gun). Start to fill the oil normally, until reaching the required volume. c. Un the full process of oil filling, the suction port of oil filling pipe must be immersed into the lubricating oil to avoid invasion of air into the machine. Close the oil charge valve when the oil pipe is still immersed into the oil. Then, remove the pipe. @2A Discharge of lubricating oil Generally, discharge the refrigerant before discharging the lubricating oil. The pressure inside the oil tank of compressor is constant under normal temperature. To discharge the oil, you may open the oil filling manhole at the oil supply pipe and oil tank outlet, and drain the oil into an appropriate vessel. 5.2.4. How to dispel the air out of the system (1) Close the liquid-out cutoff valve of the compressor. Start the compressor and drain the refrigerant from the low pressure section to the condenser. (2) Loosen the screw plug in the by-pass hole of the exhaust cutoff valve. Rotate clockwise the exhaust cutoff valve stem (about half a turn), making the valve in three-way status so that the high pressure gas can overflow from the by-pass hole. (3) Put your palm against the air flow. If you feel wind blowing without cool, the majority of the exhaust is air. Continue to exhaust until the oil stain is seen on the hand and you has a feel of cool. In this case, most of the air is exhausted. (4) Or, connect the pressure gauge to the screw plug in the by-pass hole of the exhaust cutoff valve. If the saturated temperature corresponding to the gauge pressure is much higher than the drainage temperature of the condenser cooling water, you shall need to continue to exhaust the air. If not higher too much but within 2~3 degree, this indicates that the air is basically exhausted. 5.2.5. Replace the oil filter @1A Drain oil as described in Section 4 of this chapter. @2A Loosen the screws fixing the oil filter and remove the filter element. @3A Use clean oil to remove the dirt on the filter element or replace with a new filter element. @4A Put the clean filter element into the compressor and tighten the screw. @5A Fill oil as described in Section 4 of this chapter. 90 5.2.6 Troubleshooting of the 4-way valve The air-cooled screw unit is equipped with a 4-way valve a device to adjust the direction of refrigerant flow. The machine relies on this valve to realize the switching between cooling and heating. Therefore, the 4-way valve is a requisite device in the heat pump system. Foreign particles inside the system or insufficient pressure differential may cause the 4-way valve unable to switch to correct position. In this case, please operate according to the following steps:
1. Close the cutoff valve 1; 2. Push down the Freon needle of the cutoff valve 1, making it under discharge status. 3. Gently knock the body of 4-way valve. 4. You will hear the sound that the slide valve is moving. 5. Open the cutoff valve 1 and restart the machine normally. Operating principle of 4-way valve: a. De-energized b. Energized
When the solenoid coil is de-energized, the guide slide valve 2 will move to the left under the force of compression spring 3. The high pressure gas enters into the capillary 1 before entering the piston chamber 4. On another hand, the gas in the piston chamber 5 is discharged. As the two ends of the piston are different in pressure, the piston and main slide valve 6 will move to the left, so that the E and S pipes are connected and D and C pipes are connected. Thus, a cooling cycle is formed. When the solenoid coil is energized, the guide slide valve 2 will encounter the stress of the spring and move to the right under the magnetic force generated by the solenoid coil. The high pressure gas enters into the capillary 1 before entering the piston chamber 5. On another hand, the gas in the piston chamber 4 is discharged. As the two ends of the piston are different in pressure, the piston and main slide valve 6 will move to the right, so that the S and C pipes are connected and E and D pipes are connected. Thus, a heating cycle is formed. Pipe E Pipe C Pipe D Cutoff valve 1 Pipe S Cutoff valve 91 Requirements of Replacement: 1) Always use the same model to replace the 4-way valve. 2) The pipe connection shall be consistent to the old 4-way valve. 3) During welding, the body of 4-way valve shall be wrapped with wet cloth to avoid burn to the slide block inside and prevent the water from flowing into the pipe. 4) When welding the pipes, make sure to charge nitrogen to a pressure of 1.0~3.0kgf/ cm 2 . 5.2.7 Replace the thermal expansion valve The thermal expansion valve is a common throttling element in commercial refrigerating system. In comparison with capillary, it is advantaged in wide range of adjustment, reliable control of overheat and less labors of test works. Compared with the electronic expansion valve, is does not need complicated control circuit but has higher mechanical stability. For above advantaged, the thermal expansion valve is widely applied in commercial field. Operating principle of thermal expansion valve: The thermal expansion valve, a type of temperature-activated auto expansion valve, is mostly used in dry evaporator to adjust the liquid feed so that it gets matched with the evaporator loads and the refrigerant liquid are so supplied that it can be completely evaporated at the evaporator outlet. This will not only avoid excessive supply of liquids, but also ensure the sufficient utilization of the heat transfer area of the evaporator. The valve mouth is subjected to the dynamic balance of three forces, i.e. the pressure from the temperature sensor, the spring force and the evaporator outlet pressure from the valance pipe. The thermal expansion valve shall be immediately replaced if it is incurred to unrepairable failure or damage. In the system where the thermal expansion valve is used, the likely problem is that the system pressure is low or the system is even subjected to low-pressure protection. The causes are as below: (1) The filling inside the temperature sensor is relocated. (2) The moisture in the system is frozen at the throat of expansion valve. (3) The overheat is too low. (4) The refrigerant is charged too much or too less. (5) The throat of expansion valve is blocked. (6) The thermal expansion valve is damaged. For easy solving of similar problems, the following method is used for confirmation by step: 1) Test to confirm that the filling inside the temperature sensor is relocated. Pour the hot water onto the dynamic head of the thermal expansion valve. This will make the inside filling return to the temperature sensor. This method can be used during start or stop of the unit. If the suction pressure remains low after treatment, please proceed to the next step; 2) Test to confirm that the moisture in the system is frozen at the throat of expansion valve. Do as described in the previous step. Upon start of the machine, pour the hot water onto the valve body to dissolve the ice. If the moisture is frozen at the throat of the expansion valve, you may find a high exhaust pressure. If the problem is solved after treatment, please replace the drying filter and rebuild the vacuum. If the pressure remains low, please proceed to the next step; 92 3) Test to confirm that the overheat is too low If the overheat is too low due to some reason, please remove the suction pipe from the temperature sensor when starting the unit. Find out the reason causing the overheat too low and check if the temperature sensor is positioned properly. If the suction pressure remains low, please proceed to the next step; 4) The refrigerant is charged too much or too less. To judge if a system is properly charged, it is best to judge from the overcool and overheat. On the liquid pipe of the product, there is no interface for online test (Note: pressure test). Therefore, we can judge if the unit found of problem in online test is of proper overcool only by computing the pressure drop of the refrigerant passing the condenser from the result of laboratory test, or referring to the overcool curve obtained from test result under different environments. 5) The thermal expansion valve is damaged. If the problem remains unsolved after use of all methods above, please cut off the valve body by welding, and check if it can be opened under air. If it cannot be opened, we can confirm that the filling in the temperature sensor is leaked. 5.2.8 Solution to Leakage of System Pipeline For the air conditioner unit, the highly air tightness of the system pipeline is the top importance as well as the difficulty in the installation and repair works. The leakage of refrigerant will not only affect the normal operation of the unit directly, but also cause pollution to the environment. In event of open fire, the refrigerant will decompose into poisonous gas which will cause severe harm to the living beings. If finding any leakage in the system pipeline, immediately stop the unit to detect and repair the leakage. Operating Steps: (1) Charge the nitrogen up to a pressure of 20.0kgf/cm2. (2) Use soap water to check the connection between the pipes. Mark properly if finding leakage. (3) After completing the detection of the entire pipeline, charge nitrogen again 1.0~3.0kgf/cm 2 to weld the leaking point. (4) After repairing the leakage, charge high-pressure nitrogen (25.0kgf/cm 2 ). Check the readings on pressure gauge after 48 hours. The pressure drop as computed below shall not be 1% higher than the test pressure. Otherwise, the cause shall be found out and the leakage shall be repaired until it is retested acceptable. BP=P1-P2(273+T1) / (273+T2) In which: BP Pressure drop (Mpa) P1, P2 Nitrogen pressure at the start and end of the test (MPa) T1, T2 Nitrogen temperature at the start and end of the test (!) (5) If possible, it is best to use the halogen leakage detector upon initial finding of refrigerant leakage. CAUTION: If the system is in heavy shortage of refrigerant, the capacity status shall be set to partial load to prevent the machine from frequent tripping due to low-pressure protection after startup. Add the refrigerant to rated volume before setting the system to the full load operation. 93 5.3 Explosion View 5.3.1 LSBLGRF250M
