Waterside Pressure Drops
CAUTION
Full design water flow MUST be maintained at all times. Variable water volume is
NOT recommended and will invalidate warranty.
Use the formula below to calculate the External Head Available:
Total Pump Head Available
-
Chiller Pressure Drop
=
External Head Available
Example: DCC033DR-08BMH0
Water flow : 15.6 l/s
Pump Option : 6
Chiller Pressure Drop : 39.6 kPa
Total Pump Head Available : 182 kPa
182 kPa
-
39.6 kPa
=
142.4 kPa

For glycol solutions, please refer to
NOTE
To determine a flow rate from the available external head; adjust the flow until the unit
pressure matches the total head available (from the pump curve minus the pressure
drop of the unit). Checks can be made on the evaporator pressure drop to ensure
correct operation.
