Chiller Operation and Maintenance

”‡••—”‡ƒ†‡’‡”ƒ–—”‡‘‰

A log of temperatures and pressures should be taken
regularly. Periodically conduct a visual inspection of the
chiller to identify problems before they reach the point of
failure. As with any mechanical system, it is necessary to

Technician

Daily

• A daily operational log should be kept.

• Perform visual inspection.

• Record entering and leaving chiller water and condenser

water temperatures and pressures.

• Note any problems that may exist and immediately plan

for further investigation. If repair is necessary, schedule
for earliest possible date.

• Properly document all data taken.

Weekly

• Review daily log from previous week.

• Perform visual inspection.

• Properly document all data taken.

• Note any problems that may exist. Immediately plan

for further investigation. If repair is necessary, schedule
for earliest possible date.

Quarterly

• Check the master and module control panel operating

parameters and set points.

• Check temperature drop/rise on each individual

heat exchanger.*

• Check compressor oil level.

• Check compressor oil color.

• Ї…™ƒ–‡”ƪ‘™”ƒ–‡•ƒ†’”‡••—”‡†”‘’•ƒ…”‘••

evaporator and condenser heat exchangers.

• Properly document all data taken.

• Check all electrical connections for tightness.

* The temperature drop/rise on a fully loaded (both

compressors) heat exchanger is generally 10°F. If only one
compressor is running the temperature drop/rise will be
approximately 5°F. Some projects are designed to have a
higher or lower temperature drop on either the evaporator
or the condenser depending on application. Consult your

only ClimaCool recommended de-scalers (see Chemical
Clean In Place Washing on page 31).

• Remove and clean all waterside strainers.

• Manually operate all waterside isolation valves,

if provided, on each module.

• Check all electrical connections for tightness.

• Perform leak check on all refrigerant circuits.

• Check all header piping couplings for tightness.

• Check oil level and color on each compressor.

• Check and test all refrigerant safeties for proper operation.

• Check all peripheral systems for proper operation.

• Check and test CoolLogic Control System.
