2.0 WORKING PRINCIPLE AND STRUCTURE
Compressor: The refrigerant vapour enters the compressor in a low pressure, low temperature but superheated
state. The compression process increases the pressure and the temperature and the now high pressure, high
temperature superheated gas is discharged into a condenser, a heat exchanger where due to its high temperature
the refrigerant can be condensed using cooling tower water or ambient air.
Condenser: The high pressure hot vapour is condensed into a high pressure hot liquid, or saturated liquid at its
pressure corresponds to its condensing temperature. This high pressure liquid refrigerant discharges from the
bottom of the condenser and is passed through an expansion valve or some other restrictive device.
Expansion valve: The downstream side of this expansion device is exposed to the low pressure part of the system
which causes the refrigerant to expand rapidly as it passes through the device, as it expands; adiabatic cooling of
the gas/liquid mixture occurs at this point where it then becomes colder than the water (or other liquid to be cooled)
in the evaporator.
Evaporator: This is a second heat exchanger where the medium (water) ultimately to be cooled by this process, the
‘chilled water’, is circulated on one side and the cold refrigerant mixture is circulated through the other side where it
absorbs heat, thereby cooling down the chilled water. Cooling the chilled water is the fundamental purpose of the
equipment. The refrigerant then continues to circulate in the system and after going through the compression
process again the heat absorbed will be rejected by the condenser to the tower water or ambient air.
The cooling capacity of the system is directly proportional to refrigerant gas flow through the compressor. An
adjustable guide vane regulating device can be installed at the inlet of centrifugal compressors to control the suction
flow of compressor, matching the system cooling capacity to that of the building cooling load in a regulated and step
less manner across a defined range.
Economizer:
DCLCD chiller with two-stage compressor has similar process described above, with the exception that Liquid
refrigerant from the condenser flows into an economizer at intermediate pressure instead of flowing directly to the
cooler. In the economizer, vapor is separated from the liquid; the separated vapor flows to the second stage of the
compressor and the remaining liquid flows into the cooler. Since the economizer gas has to pass through only half of
the compression cycle to reach condenser pressure, a power saving is achieved. In addition vaporizing refrigerant in
the economizer absorb energy from remaining liquid and allows the liquid refrigerant to subcool before entering the
cooler. Subcooled liquid refrigerant absorb more heat in the cooler which benefits the cooling cycle.
Maximum outside temperature — for transport and storage of the DCLC units the minimum and maximum
allowable temperatures are -20°C and +50°C.

3.0 SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The major components of the DCLC Chiller are:- the evaporator and condenser heat exchangers as separate
vessels, motor-compressor, lubrication package, expansion device, advanced control panel, and motor starter. All
connections from pressure vessels have flange and bolts to enable each component to be pressure tested with a
threaded pipe cap during factory assembly.
a) Motor-Compressor
Close-coupled semi-hermetic electric motor and compressor assembly, for compressing the refrigerant and
circulating it around the system.
b) Evaporator
The evaporator has the compressor mounted upon it, and it is within this heat exchanger that the temperature of
the leaving chilled water is cooled and reduced to the desired temperature.
c) Condenser
The condenser water circuit requires connecting to a cooling tower or similar device in order to reject the heat
removed from the ‘chilled water’ circuit.

D The standard design pressure for the water (tube) side of the evaporator and condenser is 10bar. 16bar and
20bar are optional.
D Providing the site selected and in particular the floor construction is suitable for the chiller and is capable of
supporting the operating weight of DCLC chiller including the refrigerant charge and water content, there is no
requirement to install a secondary plinth.
D All DB DCLC chillers are thoroughly run tested at the factory prior to shipment. The maximum vibration does not
exceed 3mm/second, which is significantly better than other manufacturers and the industry norm. Therefore
anti vibration mounts are not normally required although can be supplied as an option. The chiller can be
mounted directly onto a set of rubber or similar pads.
D The 6kV, 10kV Medium-voltage starter cabinet is optional for models below DCLC1400. Where a customer
wishes to supply their own starter it must comply with the DCLC ‘Technical Requirements for Medium-Voltage
Start Motors’ for centrifugal chiller cabinets.
NOTE:
For details of options, assistance with complying with or changing specifications in favour of the DCLC chillers,
please contact the local DB Sales Representative.

3.1.1.4 Shaft
The shafts run on Babbitt
bearings, supported on a
lubricant film, as opposed to
rolling element bearings,
more typical in this type of
compressor. This bearing
configuration reduces friction
losses and under normal
circumstance, the DCLC shaft has, in theory, an infinite life while rolling element bearings require periodic
replacement.
3.1.1.6 Casting
DCLC compressor housing and gearbox are cast together. The impeller and inlet guide vane are then
installed inside it.

3.0 SYSTEM COMPONENTS
Notes:
1. The Oil sump heater starts when the temp in the oil sump is lower than the setting value.
2. Power to oil heater/controls must be on circuits that can provide continuous service when the compressor is disconnected.
This highly efficient motor cooling method results in the use of reduced frame size motors with lower
starting currents, less weight and improved efficiency.
The use of hermetic, refrigerant cooled motors is an important factor when considering the design of the
machine room and the ventilation system to be installed within it. Open frame air cooled motors may
require ducting or at least a suitable ventilation system within the space to remove heat generated by the
motor in order to maintain acceptable operating conditions. This will have cost implications and should be
considered in the overall system design.
When evaluating the overall chiller proposal, it is important to take all the ventilation and mechanical
cooling equipment, energy consumption and installation costs into consideration. Open frame air cooled
motors will also have specific installation (alignment) and maintenance costs but the simplification of the
required ventilation is the most significant improvement that results from using hermetic compressor drive
motors. For detailed requirements for ventilation and safety requirement to the machine room, please refer
to ASHRAE15.

3.0 SYSTEM COMPONENTS
Note:
As DB DCLC chillers are closed circuit hermetically sealed and operate at positive pressure, there is no requirement
to change the lubricant or filter on a regular basis. As with any equipment of this type, an annual oil check and filter
condition is recommended to evaluate the lubricant condition.

3.1.2.2 Characteristics of the Lubrication System Components (Check the pump in 3.1.1.9)
All bearing surfaces are pressure lubricated. Drive gears operate in a controlled lubricant mist atmosphere
that efficiently cools and lubricates them.
- 14 -
3.0 SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The motor and the lubricating oil are
cooled by liquid refrigerant taken from the
bottom of the condenser vessel. Flow of
refrigerant is maintained by the pressure
difference during compressor operation.
After the refrigerant passes through a
control valve and filter, it is distributed by
the motor cooling system.
The refrigerant flows through an orifice
into the motor housing. Once past the
orifice, the refrigerant is directed over the
motor by a spray nozzle. The refrigerant
collects in the bottom of the motor casing
and is then drained back to the evaporator
through the motor refrigerant drain line.
The motor is protected by the temperature
sensors imbedded in the stator windings. If the temperature rises above the safety limit (110°C), the compressor will
shut down automatically.
A second refrigerant line feeds the oil cooling system and is regulated by a manual valve. This valve regulates
refrigerant flow into plate-type heat exchanger to control the oil temperature of the bearings.

NOTE:
The evaporator and condenser tubes are copper alloy as a standard but 90/10 copper-nickel as an option, also available for more demanding
applications. These alternative tube materials can be combined with corrosion resistant tube sheets, such as Monel Clad or stainless steel. The water
boxes or heads of these vessels can be supplied in steel with epoxy coating or stainless steel construction depending on the application.

3.0 SYSTEM COMPONENTS
Distributor — A distributor manifold inside the evaporator provides uniform distribution of refrigerant over
the entire shell length to yield optimum heat transfer.
Optional Refrigerant isolation valves — these valves enable the units entire refrigerant charge to be
stored in the condenser enabling many service and maintenance activities to be completed in less time
and lower costs.
3.2.1.3 Waterbox
Fabricated waterboxes are offered as the standard arrangement and optional marine type water boxes are
available if required in Monel clad or stainless steel configuration. Please contact DB Sales service.

Insulation applied at the factory is 19mm thickness of rubber sponge and has a thermal conductivity K
value of (0.0404 W)/(m².°C) [(0.28 Btu*in)/hr.f².°F].
Note:
Thermal insulation shall be fitted in a way that will not interfere with the normal operation of the unit and
that will also allow removal of the water boxes to enable cleaning of the heat exchanger tubes. Access to
fasteners and nameplate shall be maintained at all times.
Optional Insulation at site - As indicated in the ‘Condensation’ vs ‘Relative Humidity’ table, the factory
insulation provides excellent protection against condensation under most operating conditions. If
temperatures in the equipment area exceed the maximum design conditions, extra insulation is
recommended. If the machine is to be field insulated, obtain the approximate areas from the ‘Insulation
Requirements’ table. Insulation of the waterbox is made only in the field and this area is not included in
Minimum Field-Installed Insulation Requirements table. When insulating the covers, allow for service
access and removal of covers. To estimate water box cover areas refer to certified drawings.
