Flow Switch
Water loop systems minimum volume, include chiller,
water piping and indoor unit, all these water
fl
ow should
not less than 9L/kW, in order to keep the unit steady op-
eration and accurate controlled water temperature. If the
volume is lower than this minimum value, should install
a water tank with similar volume, which have build-in
baf
fl
e to get well mixed water.
To protect the unit, water loop must be installed
fl
ow
switch and interlocked with water pump. To interlock the
water pump, please refer to Field Wiring Diagram (line
194 and 346). once the the water
fl
ow of heat exchanger
was below
Table 1
required minimum
fl
ow, water
fl
ow
switch can stop the compressor operation.Water
fl
ow
switch is accessories, its general installation require-
ments outlined below, see
Figure 16
:
Shall be vertically installed in horizontal pipelines or
installed on the vertical tube upward
fl
ow direction.
Please keep away from the elbow, ori
fi
ce or valve ,
before and after the switch keep at least 5 times the
pipe diameter of straight pipe.
Flow switch target slice should be selected and cut
according
Table 10
. Target slice length before usage.
Water bypass cannot be installed between water
fl
ow switch and evaporator, Otherwise, switch can’t
protect evaporator and evaporator may be freeze if
the evaporator inlet water
fl
ow is too small.
Control the screw-in depth of the water
fl
ow switch,
make sure the arrow on the switch is consistent with
the direction of
fl
ow.
To prevent switch vibrate, no air in water loop.
To make sure the
fl
ow switch could cutoff at
fl
ow
smaller than minimum water
fl
ow, according
Figure
17
.
Water
fl
ow switch should be interlocked with water
pump control.
For the other type
fl
ow switch, the speci
fi
c installation
and maintenance requirements can be found in the
fl
ow
switch instructions, which is attached with the unit.
