SSC Series Central Chilling Stations

Two connections are made to each SSC Series unit:


Condenser Water In

The city or tower water supply inlet is located at the side or rear of
the chiller.

• Water pressure ≥25 psi (≥172.4 kPa/≥1.72 bars)
• Water temperature ≤85°F (≤29ºC)

Condenser Water Out

The return outlet, located at the chiller side or rear is connected to
a cooling tower inlet, a sewer or other approved discharge receiver.

• A water regulating valve is a standard feature in the condenser

water out line.

Caution!

The water regulating valve is set at the factory.

It must not be adjusted except by a qualified refrigeration technician.



3-10 Installing the Remote Air-Cooled Condenser

SSC Series models use the surrounding air to cool the remote
condenser. All models have variable speed fans and low ambient
controls to allow proper operation down to -20°F (-29ºC) outdoor
air temperature.

Install the remote air cooled condenser where there is:

• Greater than or equal to -20°F (-29ºC) air temperature.
• Free passage of air for condensing.
• Adequate structural support.
• Protection from strong winds and drifting snow.
• Provisions for removal of heated air from the area.
• No steam, hot air or fume exhausts drawn into the condenser

coils.

• Service accessibility.
