SECTION 4 – INSTALLATION
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The following connection recommendations are in-
tended to ensure safe and satisfactory operation of the
unit. Failure to follow these recommendations could
cause harm to persons, or damage to the unit, and may
invalidate the warranty.
No additional controls (relays, etc.)
should be mounted in the control panel.
Power and control wiring not connected
to the control panel should not be run
through the control panel. If these pre-
cautions are not followed it could lead to
a risk of electrocution. In addition, elec-
trical noise could cause malfunctions or
damage the unit and its controls.
Remote Emergency Stop Device
A remote emergency stop device may be wired into the
unit. This device should be rated at 8 amps, 230V.
The emergency stop device should be wired into termi-
nals L and 5 of CTB2.
Chilled Liquid Pump (CLP) (Evaporator Pump
Start Contacts)
Terminals 23 and 24 on CTB1 close to start the chilled
liquid pump. These terminals can be used as a master
start/stop for the pump in conjunction with the daily
start/stop schedule. If no schedule is set, and the cus-
tomer has master control of the pump, the terminals
must be used to override the customer master start/stop
so that the unit can start the pump in the event of a low
liquid temperature condition.
System Run Contacts
Terminals 25 and 26 on CTB2 close to indicate that
System 1 is running. Terminals 27 and 28 on CTB2
close to indicate System 2 is running. These terminals
may be used to start the cooling liquid pump(s) for the
condenser.
System Alarm (SA) (System Alarm Contacts)
Terminals 29 and 30 (system 1) and 31 and 32 (system
2) on CTB2 close to indicate an alarm condition when-
ever a system locks out, or there is a power failure.
FIELD WIRING
All field wiring must comply with the National Elec-
tric Code and all applicable local codes. YORK liquid
chiller units are factory wired for optimum reliability.
Therefore the unit controls must not be modified with-
out expressed written consent by Johnson Controls.
The use of a simple switch or timer from a remote point
is permitted; but it must be connected to the YORK
unit panel at points expressly indicated for that pur-
pose.
Copper power wiring only should be used for supply-
ing power to the chiller. This is recommended to avoid
safety and reliability issues resulting from connection
failure at the power connections to the chiller. Alumi-
num wiring is not recommended due to thermal char-
acteristics that may cause loose terminations result-
ing from the contraction and expansion of the wiring.
Aluminum oxide may also buildup at the termination
causing hot spots and eventual failure. If aluminum
wiring is used to supply power to the chiller, AL-CU
compression fittings should be used to transition from
aluminum to copper. This transition should be done in
an external box separate to the power panel. Copper
conductors can then be run from the box to the chiller.
A 120-1-60, 15 amp source must be supplied for the
control panel through a fused disconnect when a con-
trol panel transformer (optional) is not provided (
refer
to Use 1/2" or better grade 80 chain
).
See unit wiring diagrams for field and power wiring
connections, chilled water pump starter contacts, alarm
contacts, compressor run status contacts, PWM input,
and load limit input. Refer to
for a detailed description of operation con-
cerning aforementioned contacts and inputs.
YCRL Connection Sizes
Piping connection sizes are provided in
. These sizes indicate the connection size
that is provided on the chiller where the remote piping
connects.
The connection sizes should not be used
as a guide for sizing remote piping, since
sizing of the remote piping will vary to
assure oil return and limit pressure drop.
