Startup Procedure
1.
Turn "ON" the circuit breaker on the rear of the unit. The controller will go through a diagnostic
test. Turn on the chiller unit using the ( I ) key located on the Keypad Display panel. The
controller displays "OFF" for 8 seconds. The delay prevents rapid cycling of the compressor using
the "ON" and "OFF" switch.
****
IMPORTANT****
If you have optional controller package 2 or 3, the fault shutoff may prevent the chiller from operating.
If you turn on the unit and it does not operate, disable the fault shutoff. Then turn on the chiller. After
the chiller is operating and the coolant reaches its setpoint temperature, you can enable the fault
shutoff.
2.
Set the temperature setpoint using the controls on the keypad display as follows:
Press the “SET” key once to display the current coolant temperature set point.
Press the “UP” or “DOWN” arrow key until the desired coolant temperature setpoint
appears on the LED display.
Press the “SET” key again to accept the setpoint and return to normal operation.
3.
Operate the chiller for a short time and then check the coolant level in the reservoir. If the level
drops, add more coolant.
4.
Check all fittings and hoses for fluid leaks. If a leak exists, turn chiller off, disconnect power and
take necessary action to repair the leak.
****IMPORTANT****
Do not operate chiller until leak has been repaired.
