ter temperature controls, wiring, etc.
Form 2
The chiller is shipped complete; miscellaneous loose
items are shipped together.
Refrigerant charges are shipped separately.
Arrangements with the local service office
must be made to ensure refrigerant is on-
site when the unit is ready to be charged.
Chiller unit
The unit is completely assembled at the factory.
• The driveline (compressor/motor assembly) is
mounted and all the necessary interconnecting
piping is assembled.
• The complete unit is factory leak-tested, evacu-
ated, and shipped charged with a 2 psig to 3 psig
(14 kPa to 20 kPa) holding charge of dry nitrogen.
• The OptiView™ Control Center is mounted on
the unit.
• The variable speed drive (VSD) is mounted,
wired, and shipped with glycol.
Miscellaneous items
The following items are shipped together:
• Four vibration isolation pads (or optional spring
isolators and brackets).
• Other shipped loose items, including piping, wa-
ter temperature controls, wiring, etc.
• Inhibitor (VSD)
Form 3
The chiller is shipped in three assemblies:
1. The driveline (compressor/motor assembly)
2. The evaporator/condenser shell assembly
3. The variable speed drive (VSD)
4. Miscellaneous shipped loose items
Refrigerant charges are shipped separately.
Arrangements with the local service office
must be made to ensure refrigerant is on-
site when the unit is ready to be charged.
Prior to shipping, the unit is completely assembled at
the factory. Interconnecting piping is assembled and
the complete unit is wired and leak-tested.
The unit is then dismantled and shipped as follows:
Driveline
The driveline (compressor/motor assembly) is re-
moved from the shells and skidded.
• All integral wiring is left on the compressor.
• All openings on the compressor are closed and
shipped charged with a 2 psig to 3 psig (14 kPa to
20 kPa) holding charge of dry nitrogen.
Shells
The evaporator and condenser are assembled prepared
for shipping but not skidded.
• All conduit is left on the shells.
• All openings the shells are closed and charged
with a 2 psig to 3 psig (14 kPa to 20 kPa) holding
charge of dry nitrogen.
Variable speed drive (VSD)
The variable speed drive is skidded and shipped sepa-
rately from the assembled chiller.
• The variable speed drive
is filled with glycol for
shipping. The variable speed drive inhibitor is
shipped with the other loose items.
Miscellaneous material
The following assemblies and items are shipped to-
gether:
• OptiView™ Control Center
• Magnetic Bearing Controller (MBC)
• Four vibration isolation pads or optional spring
isolators and brackets
