DETERMINING WATER FLOW
(CONDENSER ONLY)
1. Check that the condenser valve is 100% open and
the economizer is 100% closed.
2. Determine the differential water pressure between
inlet and outlet.
3.
Multiply the difference by 2.31(constant).
4.
This answer is the feet of W.C. that is flowing
through the unit.
5.
Refer to Pressure Drop Tables (
6. Locate feet of W.C. from Step 4 in the Condenser
All Models column.
7.
Cross to the left of the chart to find the GPM.
8. The unit requires 2–3 GPM/ton to operate cor-
rectly. See
9.
If the flow is low or high, adjustments should be
made to the pump/water system to correct.
DETERMINING WATER FLOW
(WATERSIDE ECONOMIZER ACTIVE)
1. Check that the condenser valve is 100% open and
the economizer is 100% open.
2. Determine the differential water pressure between
the inlet and outlet.
3.
Multiply the difference by 2.31(constant).
4.
This answer is the feet of W.C. that is flowing
through the unit.
5.
Refer to Pressure Drop Tables (
6.
Take the Condenser flow feet of W.C. from above
and add the additional from under the Additional
Waterside Economizer - When Active column.
This determines total flow with Condenser and
Economizer valves 100% open.
