13. INSTALLATION
WR2-Series-575V
13-3. Piping direction
1. Insulation installation
With City Multi WY/ WR2 Series piping, as long as the temperature range
of the inlet water is kept to average temperatures year-round (30°C[86°F]
in the summer, 20°C[68°F] in the winter), there is no need to insulate or
otherwise protect indoor piping from exposure. You should use insulation
in the following situations:
• Any heat source piping.
• Indoor piping in cold-weather regions where frozen pipes are a problem.
• When air coming from the outside causes condensation to form on
piping.
• Any drainage piping.
2. Water processing and water quality control
To preserve water quality, use the closed type of cooling tower for WY/
WR2. When the circulating water quality is poor, the water heat
exchanger can develop scales, leading to a reduction in heat-exchange
power and possible corrosion of the heat exchanger. Please pay careful
attention to water processing and water quality control when installing the
water circulation system.
• Removal of foreign objects or impurities within the pipes.
During installation, be careful that foreign objects, such as welding
fragments, sealant particles, or rust, do not enter the pipes.
• Water Quality Processing
Depending on the quality of the cold-temperature water used in the
air conditioner, the copper piping of the heat exchanger may become
corroded. We recommend regular water quality processing.
Cold water circulation systems using open heat storage tanks are
particularly prone to corrosion.
When using an open-type heat storage tank, install a water-to-water
heat exchanger, and use a closed-loop circuit on the air conditioner
side. If a water supply tank is installed, keep contact with air to a
minimum, and keep the level of dissolved oxygen in the water no
higher than 1mg/ .
Water quality standard
Please consult with a water quality control specialist about water
quality control methods and water quality calculations before using
anti-corrosive solutions for water quality management.
When replacing a previously installed air conditioning device (even
when only the heat exchanger is being replaced), first conduct a
water quality analysis and check for possible corrosion.
Corrosion can occur in cold-water systems even if there has been no
prior signs of corrosion. If the water quality level has dropped, please
adjust water quality sufficiently before replacing the unit.
