The subcooling temperature of each system can be cal-
culated by recording the temperature of the liquid line
at the outlet of the condenser and subtracting it from
the liquid line saturation temperature at the liquid stop
valve (liquid line saturation temp. is converted from a
temperature/pressure chart).
Example:
Liquid line pressure = 102°F
202 PSIG converted to
- 87°F
minus liquid line temp.
Subcooling = 15°F
The subcooling should be adjusted to 15°F at design
conditions.
1. Record the liquid line pressure and its corre-
sponding temperature, liquid line temperature and
subcooling below:
SYS 1 SYS 2
Liq Line Press = _______ _______ PSIG
Saturated Temp = _______ _______ °F
Liq Line Temp = _______ _______ °F
Subcooling = _______ _______ °F
After the subcooling is verified, the suction superheat
should be checked. The superheat should be checked only
after steady state operation of the chiller has been estab-
lished, the leaving water temperature has been pulled down
to the required leaving water temperature, and the unit is
running in a fully loaded condition. Correct superheat set-
ting for a system is 10°F - 15°F (5.56°C - 8.33°C) 18" (46
cm) from the cooler.
Superheat should typically be set for no less than 10°F
with only a single compressor running on a circuit.
The superheat is calculated as the difference between
the actual temperature of the returned refrigerant gas in
the suction line entering the compressor and the tem-
perature corresponding to the suction pressure as shown
in a standard pressure/temperature chart.
Example:
Suction Temp =
46°F
minus Suction Press
60 PSIG converted to Temp -
34°F
Superheat = 12°F
When adjusting the expansion valve (TXV only), the
adjusting screw should be turned not more than one
turn at a time, allowing sufficient time (approximately
15 minutes) between adjustments for the system and the
thermal expansion valve to respond and stabilize.
Assure that TXV superheat is set at a minimum of 10°F
(5.56°C) with a single compressor running on each cir
-
cuit.
2. Record the suction temperature, suction pressure,
suction saturation temperature, and superheat of
each system below:
SYS 1 SYS 2
Suction temp = _______ _______ °F
Suction Pressure = _______ _______ PSIG
Saturation Temp = _______ _______ °F
Superheat = _______ _______ °F
LEAK CHECKING
1. Leak check compressors, fittings, and piping to
ensure no leaks.
If the unit is functioning satisfactorily during the initial
operating period, no safeties trip and the compressors
cycle to control water temperature to setpoint, the chiller
is ready to be placed into operation.
3. Allow the compressor to run a short time, being
ready to stop it immediately if any unusual noise
or adverse conditions develop.
4. Check the system operating parameters. Do this
by selecting various displays such as pressures
and temperatures and comparing these readings
to pressures and temperatures taken with manifold
gauges and temperature sensors.
5. With an ammeter, verify that each phase of the
condenser fans and compressors are within the
RLA as listed under Electrical Data.
CHECKING SUPERHEAT AND SUBCOOLING
The subcooling and superheat should always be checked
when charging the system with refrigerant.
When the refrigerant charge is correct, there will be no
vapor in the liquid sight glass with the system oper-
ating under full load conditions, and there will be 15°F
(8.34°C) subcooled liquid leaving the condenser.
An overcharged system should be guarded against. The
temperature of the liquid refrigerant out of the condenser
should be no more than 18°F (10°C) subcooled at design
conditions.
