5.6 Connecting Glycol Lines
Connect glycol lines from the manifolds to the Hoshizaki Lancer Everest system chiller.
Supply manifold direct to pump(s).
Return manifold to glycol return pipe via return solenoid if required.
After leak checking, ensure lines are fully insulated.
5.7 Electrical
Connection
Warning
This unit must be properly electrically grounded (earthed) to avoid
possible fatal electrical shock or serious injury to the operator. Electrical
connection must be made in accordance with the appropriate local
codes and regulations
Warning
Ensure glycol is added first, then water, prior to starting the refrigeration
system – failure to do so will cause severe damage to the plate heat
exchanger and refrigeration system, and will void all warranty
5.8 Filling Unit with Glycol / Water
The Lancer Everest system chiller requires a 30% glycol / water mixture. Put 60 litres of glycol in the
tank and fill with water until the glycol / water mixture reaches the over flow.
The overflow should be plumbed away to a suitable drain or container, via a Goose neck.
5.9 Commissioning
Turn refrigeration condensing unit off to prevent heat exchanger plate becoming too cold and
freezing glycol on initial return.
Turn power on to the Hoshizaki Lancer Everest system chiller.
Turn pump(s) on and allow the python glycol lines to fill. Ensure liquid level does not drop below
pump intake during initial filling of python.
As required, top up the unit with a premixed 30:70 glycol / water mixture to correct level.
Check water / glycol mixture with refractometer or hydrometer.
Turn on condensing unit. If glycol bath temperature is above the set point of the thermostat the
refrigeration solenoid should be operational.
Check all connections for leaks.
Monitor indicated temperature on thermostat and ensure temperature reduces to the set point.
