DRAIN CONNECTION:

A.

The unit is supplied as standard with a ProCon type pump. In some
cases, it may be necessary to drain the unit. This is done by
removing the pump volute plug in the pump assembly.

B.

Note that if chemical treatment of process fluid or additives are use,
drainage shall be done according to local codes.

C.

It is important to note that drainage procedures must be done prior
to shipment or outdoor storage or the unit. If not, freezing damage
can occur.

AIR COOLED CONDENSER

A.

Air-cooled condenser require ambient air temperatures between
60°F and 95°F for efficient operation. Operating above 95°F may
result in elevated condensing pressures and eventual shut-down on
the high pressure safety switch. Check with the Conair service
department for more information on operating with ambient air
temperatures above 95°F or below 60°F.

B.

Air flow is generated by the motor driven fan. Air flow is from the
outside of the chiller, through the condenser and exhausted
through the unit. Exhaust air can not be ducted on motor driven
fan models.

C.

A free air space of at least four (4) feet is required at the condenser
intake and four (4) feet at the condenser discharge to allow for
proper air flow.

D.

At full load, this chiller will discharge approximately 15,000 BTU/hr
per hour per ton of cooling.
