Guide Specifications

.–.continued

system, interconnecting wiring, safety and operating

controls including capacity controller, control center,

motor starting components, and special features

as specified herein or required for safe, automatic

operation.

C. Operating Characteristics:

1. Provide low ambient control and high ambient

options as required to ensure unit is capable

of operation from 0°F to 125°F (-18°C to 52°C)

ambient.

2. Provide capacity control system capable of

reducing unit capacity to (10% for 2 compres-

sor units and 7.5% for 3 compressor units) of

full load. Compressor shall start in unloaded

condition. Application of factory installed hot

gas bypass shall be acceptable as required to

meet specified minimum load.

D. Cabinet: Unit panels, structural elements, control

boxes and heavy gauge structural base shall be

constructed of galvanized steel. Unit panels, control

boxes and structural base are finished with a baked

on powder paint. All painted surfaces shall be coated

with baked on powder paint which, when subject to

ASTMB117, 1,000 hour, 5% salt spray test, yields

minimum ASTM 1654 rating of “6”.

E. Unit shall ship in one piece and shall require installer

to provide only a single evaporator inlet and outlet

pipe connection. If providing chiller model that ships

in multiple pieces, bid shall include all the material

and field labor costs for factory authorized personnel

to install a trim kit to connect the pieces as well as

all interconnecting piping and wiring.

2.02 COMPRESSORS AND MOTORS

A. Compressors: Shall be direct drive, semihermetic,

rotary twin-screw type, including: muffler, tempera-

ture actuated ‘off-cycle’ heater, rain-tight terminal

box, discharge shut-off service valve, and precision

machined cast iron housing mounted on neoprene

isolators Design working pressure of entire compres-

sor, suction to discharge, shall be 350 PSIG (24bar)

or higher. Compressor shall be U.L. Recognized.

B. Motors: Refrigerant suction gas cooled accessible

hermetic compressor motor, full suction gas flow

through 0.006” maximum mesh screen, with inher-

ent internal thermal overload protection and external

current overload on all three phases.

C. Lubrication: External oil separators with no moving

parts, 450 PSIG design working pressure, and UL

listing. Refrigerant system differential pressure shall

provide oil flow through service replaceable, 0.5 micron,

full flow, cartridge type oil filter internal to compressor.

Filter bypass, less restrictive media, or oil pump not ac-

ceptable.

D. Capacity Control: Compressors shall start at minimum

load. Provide Microprocessor control to command com-

pressor capacity to balance compressor capacity with

cooling load. When required to meet minimum load, hot

gas bypass shall be factory installed and integrated into

standard control system.

2.03 REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT COMPONENTS

A. Each independent refrigerant circuit shall include: liquid

line shutoff valve with charging port, low side pressure

relief device, removable core filter-drier, sight glass with

moisture indicator, and electronic expansion valve.

B. Chiller manufacturer shall provide independent circuit

for each compressor to provide maximum redundancy.

If equipment does not have independent circuits per

compressor, manufacturer shall provide owner one spare

compressor of each unique size.

C. Discharge lines shall be provided with manual compres-

sor shutoff service valves. Suction line shall be covered

with closed cell foam insulation.

2.04 HEAT EXCHANGERS

A. Evaporator:

1. Direct expansion type or flooded type shell and

tube evaporator with high efficiency copper tubes.

Independent refrigerant circuits shall be provided

per compressor.

2. Constructed, tested, and stamped IAW applicable

sections of ASME pressure vessel code for mini-

mum 235 PSIG (16 bar) refrigerant side design

working pressure and 150 PSIG (10 bar) water

side design working pressure.

3. Shell covered with 3/4” (19mm), flexible, closed-

cell insulation, thermal conductivity of 0.26k

(BTU/HR-Ft

2

-°F/in.) maximum. Water nozzles with

grooves for mechanical couplings, and insulated

by Contractor after pipe installation.

4. Provide vent and drain fittings, and thermostati-

cally controlled heaters to protect to -20°F (-29°C)

ambient in off-cycle.

B. Air Cooled Condenser:

1. Coils: Internally enhanced, seamless copper tubes,

mechanically expanded into aluminum alloy fins
