This requires no removal of existing refrigerant oil, only a
refrigerant change on site.
The dual refrigerant circuits shall be pre-charged with R22 as
standard, or with optional R407C, and factory run tested. Re-
fer to the project chiller equipment schedule for the selected
refrigerant. If refrigerant R22 is specifi ed, the chiller must
have the ability to accept R407C at a later date in the fi eld.
Each circuit shall consist of a factory tested scroll compres-
sor, with high pressure switch, low pressure switch, pressure
relief valve, discharge, suction, and liquid isolation valves,
a liquid line drier, moisture indicator, externally equalized
thermal valve (suitable for R22 and R407C), plus gauge
port connections.
Electrical

compressor power on, and alarm indicators are to be mounted
in full view on the front of each module. All individual power
panels shall be equipped with a lockable door latch mech-

The power distribution system for each module shall contain:
Main power distribution terminal
Compressor motor contactors
Motor overload protection per compressor
Individual compressor motor fusing or breakers
Each individual module shall be equipped with a local
manual “ON” / “OFF” compressor switch to allow service or

the entire chiller. The use of individual power supply to each
module shall allow the unit to produce chilled water while
any one module is shut down for repair or service.

Run Test
Each chiller module shall be pre-charged with refrigerant at
the factory. Each system shall be given a documented factory
run test with water circulated through each module under
load conditions.
Installation
Per the project drawings, the installing contractor shall con-
