1.4. Explanation of terms
A few important terms which appear in this document are briefly explained here for improved
understanding.
12 / 77 83000102.Kf
2. Function and main components
The chiller consists of the main components: compressor, condenser, expansion valve and
evaporator, which are arranged in a circuit (Figure
Figure 1).
1 Refrigerant circulates in this circuit (cycle).
It absorbs heat from the cold water in the evaporator and gives it up to the ambient air in the
condenser.
Heat
Expansion
Compressor
valve
Evaporator
Cold
In addition, diverse pressure and temperature sensors, a control unit, a high-pressure switch, one
or more pumps and one or more fans are also installed for control and operation of the chiller.
2.1. Compressor
The compressor generates the pressure difference between the heat sink and heat source in the
refrigerant circuit needed for evaporation and condensing. Coolant vapor from the evaporator is
drawn in and compressed to the condensing pressure in the compressor.
The compressors used operate according to the scroll principle. Scroll compressors are
maintenance-free, quiet and have a very high efficiency.
The flow temperature is controlled by switching on or off one or more compressors (see 8.7.4
control). Sequential changeover ensures that all compressors are loaded uniformly.
Compressor control
13 / 77 83000102.Kf
2.2. Evaporator
The evaporator is a plate heat exchanger which transfers heat from the cold water to the
refrigerant. In order for the heat transfer to take place, the refrigerant in the evaporator has a
lower temperature than the cold water and when it absorbs heat it changes its physical state from
liquid to gaseous.
If the cold water is contaminated, deposits can form on the transfer surfaces of the evaporator.
These impair the heat transfer to the refrigerant and reduce the refrigerating capacity of the
machine. For this reason, always ensure the specified water quality and do not use any other
additives than those specified.
2.3. Condenser
The condenser is a microchannel heat exchanger which transfers heat from the refrigerant to the
ambient air. In order for the heat transfer to take place, the refrigerant in the condenser has a
higher temperature than the ambient air drawn in and when it gives off heat its physical state
changes from gaseous to liquid.
Contaminated cooling air can cause deposits to form on the surface of the condenser over time.
This impairs heat transfer to the refrigerant which restricts the operating limit of the machine and
reduces the machine's refrigerating capacity. Please refer to Chapter 9: Cleaning for a description
of how to clean the condenser. If you operate your chiller in an environment containing dust or oil
vapour, use the optionally available air filter mat (see 3.19 Air filter mat).
mat).
In case that there already is an existing house water system and the warm condensing air has to
be avoided, the chiller can also be specified with a water cooled condenser (see 3.3 Version with
water cooled condenser)
condenser
2.5. Refrigerant
The refrigerant R410A circulates in the refrigeration circuit. It conveys heat from the evaporator to
the condenser and at the same time continuously changes its physical state.
R410A is a zeotropic mixture of 50% each R32 and R125 with virtually negligible temperature
glide. R410A has a very high volumetric refrigerating capacity and has no ozone depletion
potential (ODP=0). A corresponding safety data sheet can be obtained from our KKT chillers
Service Team (see
see Table
Table 1:
1: Contact details).
details
14 / 77 83000102.Kf
2.6. Oil
The components of the compressor subject to friction are lubricated by oil, which is added to the
refrigerant in the factory. The polyolester-160SZ is used for this. The oil is soluble in the
refrigerant and is distributed with it throughout the refrigeration circuit. The total oil quantity of
the respective unit is given in the technical data. A corresponding safety data sheet can be
obtained from our KKT chillers Service Team (see
see Table 1:
1: Contact details).
details
2.11. Display
The display is used to visualise the information required by the operator and the system
processes. It is also possible to make entries at it. The display communicates with the control
unit. Further information on operation is given in Chapter 8.5 Control panel)
panel).
15 / 77 83000102.Kf
2.12. Control cabinet
The control cabinet conforms to the requirements of EN 60204 and contains the electrical and
electronic components for controlling the chiller. After removing the operator control panel the
control cabinet is accessible and can be opened using a standard two-way key. In order to avoid a
damage of the main switch while demounting the side panel, the side panel has to be tipped
10cm on the bottom side. A circuit diagram is supplied with the unit.
2.13. Pump
The chiller's pump ensures the necessary circulation of the cold water. The water is drawn out of
the chiller's internal tank and is pumped through the process circuit. Optionally, the units can also
be designed as a continuous flow cooler without tank, with pump or without tank, without pump
(see Chapter 3.1 Version without tank, with pump,
pump, and Chapter 3.2 Version without tank, without
pump).
pump
2.14. Fan
The fan draws the cooling air from the surroundings through the condenser and blows out the
heated air upwards out of the chiller. To prevent injuries, the fan is protected against accidental
contact by protective grilles. The fan's speed is variable and is controlled by the main printed
board. The speed of the fan is essentially controlled by the condensing pressure. The fan is
protected against thermal overload. In units with two fans the speed of fan 1 is always the same
as the speed of fan 2.

pump In the process circuit the cold
water absorbs heat. The circuit closes when the cold water is pumped back into the chiller. It
flows through the evaporator, in which it gives off heat. The cold water then passes back into the
tank. The cycle begins again.

In order to avoid a restriction of the plate heat exchanger the above listed limit values have to be
guaranteed imperatively.
Furthermore mucilage bacteria are not allowed in the cooling water. If that is not possible, KKT
chillers can recommend an accordant inhibitor based on a biologic water analysis.

mix ratio of water with the antifreezes AFN or AFL. To maintain the performance of your machine
and prevent damage to components, these values must be maintained as precisely as possible.
ATTENTION! Do not mix different antifreezes. This can cause unwanted chemical
reactions and silting up.
The items marked "accessories" are enclosed with the unit, unattached, and can be reordered at
any time using the appropriate product number. The installer of the machine is responsible for
installing the accessories. You can also ask our KKT chillers Service Team to arrange for this

3.3. Version with water cooled condenser
Whereas the basic versions of the Compact-Line is specified with an air cooled condenser, the
units are also available with an water cooled condenser.
Thereby the condenser is a plate heat exchanger with copper brazed stainless steel plates. The
3way valve is mounted in the cooling water outlet and is adjusted by an actuator depending on
the condensing pressure. The operation mode can be switched from the 3way operation to a
2way operation by closing the pre mounted bypass valve. The cooling water temperature is

3.6. Tank heater with thermostatic pump start
The tank heater maintains a minimum temperature in the tank. The pump circulates the cold
water, while the tank heater controls the temperature in the system. We recommend a hydraulic
installation as shown in Figure 3.
3 Any bypass valves must therefore always be installed frost-free.
For the heater to be active, the chiller must not be disconnected from the power supply. Even if
the external release (8.3 External release
release) is deactivated, the pump remains active.

3.9. Second consumer circuit
The standard Compact-Line Line units have a 3 bar pump, which is designed for the nominal
volumetric flow of the respective unit. If several consumers with different water specifications are
to be cooled with one unit, the unit can also be supplied with an optional second cold water
circuit. Ask your KKT chillers contact.
Figure 5: Top-
Top-up connection
If you operate your chiller with a mixture of water / glycol and top up only with pure water, you
must check the glycol content of the circuit water at regular intervals and if necessary adjust it.

The DI package contains the non-ferrous metal-free option for the water circuit (see chapter,
3.12) and a replaceable DI cartridge with conductivity monitoring and control.
3.17. High-
High-temperature package
In principle, the units must be operated within the given ambient temperature range (see see
Table 3). If the high-temperature package is selected, the unit can be operated at an ambient
temperature of up to 50 °C without high-pressure faults.
24 / 77 83000102.Kf
3.20. Levelling feet (accessories)
The levelling feet are used for vibration isolation and for height adjustment. They consist of a
threaded rod and a grey cast iron shell with an elastic element attached. The threaded rod
enables the height to be adjusted and compensates for floors sloping by up to 5°. The elastic
element has a slip-resistant covering. Figure 6 and Figure 7 show the installed machine foot – the
technical drawing is given in the appendix.
25 / 77 83000102.Kf
3.23. Filter assembly group cooling water circuit (accessories)
The water filter protects the cooling water circuit against dirt. The set, consisting of a filter, fitting,
two shut off valves and two pressure gauges for displaying the cooling water inlet- and outlet
pressure is enclosed with the chiller in a separate pack. The installation can be either mounted
for shutting of the filter group or for shutting of the complete cooling water circuit.
3.26. Anybus-
Anybus-Gateway (accessories)
The Anybus-Gateway is ready mounted in the switch cabinet and can be used as an interface for
processing all chiller signals. Therefore the following processing protocols are available
depending on the customer specification:

26 / 77 83000102.Kf
3.27. Remote Control Panel (accessories)
For the case that the chiller shall be operated not from the machine itself but from a different
operating place the chiller can be delivered with a remote control panel. Thereby the same display
is mounted together with the operating voltage supply in one miniature housing. The remote
control panel can be connected to the chiller via the RS485 interface and takes over the
complete function of the controller in the main device. By setting the accordant bridge in the
switch cabinet of the main device, the required operating place can be chosen.
27 / 77 83000102.Kf
3.32. Closed Water Loop
The water chiller is designed as a closed water loop system with an expansion tank. The
expansion tank is pressurized in accordance with the volume of the entire system volume
(including installation).The expansion tank balances temperature swings and related system
pressure of the water loop. In case the coolant temperature rises the expansion tank takes in the
expanded volume of the coolant and if the coolant temperature falls the stored volume will be
released back into the loop again.
4. Safety
Provided it is used as intended, the chiller is designed to operate safely, provided also that the
instructions concerning transport, installation, commissioning/startup and maintenance given in
these operating instructions are complied with. The machine conforms to the safety standards in
accordance with the EC Declaration of Conformity (see Appendix III).
28 / 77 83000102.Kf

o Provided it is not damaged the refrigeration circuit is closed. Therefore, a hazard
is not to be assumed.
Note:
After switching off the unit at the main switch, if you wait for 3 minutes before opening the unit
risks due to rotational energy and electrical power can be reduced. In this case only the residual
thermal energy must be considered.
4.4.1. High-
High-pressure limiter
The high-pressure
pressure limiter (PZH) is a pressure switch with manual reset. The PZH limits the
condensing pressure and switcheswitches off all compressors via their load contactors when the
maximum permitted system operating pressure is reached. It is part of the safety chain. The PZH
is installed on the refrigerant collector for the chiller types cBoxX 30 – cBoxX 200 and on the fluid
f
pipe for the chiller types cBoxX 120 – cBoxX 200 (see Figure 8: Position of the high- high-pressure
limiter (PZH))
(PZH)). If the PZH has triggered, a message appears at the operator control terminal. In
this case, please follow the instructions in the Troubleshoo

If the high pressure in the refrigeration circuit of your machine increases to a maximum value, the
compressors are switched off via the High- High-pressure limiter (see Chapter 4.4.1 High-
High-pressure
limiter).
limiter A manual reset is required. The high-pressure monitoring on the other hand reduces the
compressor output before the PZH's switch-off value is reached. This is done by successive
switching off of one or more compressors. A message appears at the control panel. When the
high pressure has reduced to a minimum value of 31.5 bar, the compressors are released once
more. In most cases partial shutdown of the compressors enables operation of the chiller to be
maintained with reduced output. If the high-pressure monitor has triggered, please follow the
instructions in the Troubleshooting chapter (see Appendix 0). ).
4.4.3. Low-
Low-pressure monitoring
If the low-pressure in the refrigeration circuit of your system is too low for the specified cooling
medium there is a risk of freezing. For this reason the low pressure is monitored continuously and
if it falls below a minimum value, one or more compressors are switched off successively. A
message appears at the control panel. If the low pressure has increased to a minimum value the
compressors are released once more. In most cases partial shutdown of the compressors
enables operation of the chiller to be maintained with reduced output.
If the low-pressure monitor has triggered, please follow the instructions in the Troubleshooting
chapter (see Appendix 0).).

33 / 77 83000102.Kf
4.7. Notes on reducing noise and vibration
4.7.1. Noise
Details of your chiller's airborne sound emissions are given in Chapter 4.6.
To reduce noise pollution caused by airborne sound emissions it is advisable to install the chiller
out of doors and out of the range of workplaces.
If this is not possible we recommend that when the unit is installed attention is paid to ensuring
that the air intake side is not pointed directly at a workplace/workstation.
High ambient temperatures mean high fan speeds and this increases the noise levels produced.
It is advisable not to expose the chiller to direct sunlight or to install it in rooms with high air
temperature. Further information is given in Chapter 6.2 Installation site.
site.
4.7.2. Vibration
The chiller is designed so that the vibrations caused by the compressor are largely isolated by the
chiller's frame.
To minimise the effect of vibration still further it is possible to install the chiller with optionally
available levelling feet (3.20 Levelling feet ). These are fitted with damping elastomers.
4.8.1. Electrical
If all safety provisions are complied with there is no risk.
4.8.2. Mechanical
If all safety provisions are complied with there is no risk.
Mechanical damage to components or pipes of the refrigerant circuit can cause refrigerant to
leak. Leaking refrigerant can cause cold burns.

4.11. Information for emergencies
If an emergency occurs during operation of the chiller the machine must be disconnected from
the mains at once using the master switch. Remove people from the danger zone immediately. An
emergency situation can among other things be:
o a leak and escape of refrigerant and/ or oil.
o a part of the machine becoming mechanically detached from it.
o the machine making unusual noises.
o the machine vibrating severely.
Then contact the KKT chillers Service Team. If you detect a refrigerant or oil leak, proceed as
described in Chapter 4.9 Dangerous substances.
substances.
5.2. Transport
The chiller may only be transported using a fork lift truck or crane with sufficient rated capacity.
The net weight of your machine is given in the technical data. Please note that if a machine has
already been in operation, it can contain residual fluids, which increase the transport weight.
ATTENTION! The chiller must not be tilted by more than 10° from the
perpendicular position.

6.2.4. Effect
Effect of surrounding air flow
The chiller emits heat to the surrounding area, the machine also draws in cooling air. The
machine controls the quantity of cooling air automatically via the speed of the fan. Air currents
surrounding the machine, such as the wind, can affect this control and endanger operation of the
machine. If a constant direction of an air current is known at the installation site, this should not
be directed at the air intake side of the chiller.

44 / 77 83000102.Kf
6.2.9. Stability
The normal situation is for the machine and the baseplate to be stood firmly on the ground. It is
not necessary to anchor the machine to the ground. However, if this is necessary due to the
surrounding conditions, the machine can be equipped with the optionally available levelling feet
(3.20 Levelling feet . The levelling feet provide very good resistance to slipping. If this is not
sufficient for your application the machine can also be bolted to the ground. Holes are provided in
the machine baseplate for precisely this purpose. These are shown in Appendix III. III The system
designer is responsible for choosing suitable fixing elements.
6.2.10. Levelling
If it is necessary to level the chiller on the ground or floor, this can be done using the optionally
available levelling feet.
45 / 77 83000102.Kf
6.2.12. Installation
Draining
In the case of chillers equipped with an internal tank the cold water cycle must be hydraulically

closed.
46 / 77 83000102.Kf
6.2.14. Frost protection measures
The chiller is exposed to the risk of frost in two different situations. Both with an ambient
temperature < 0 °C and a feed temperature < 8 °C there is a risk of freezing of parts of the cold
water circuit system.
6.2.16. Filling
If the hydraulic installation of the overall system has been completed the chiller can be filled. All
shut-off valves in the cold water circuit must be opened.
In the standard installation a machine without integrated tank does not have a filling connection.
You must provide a filling connection in the process circuit for filling the system. If an external
tank is installed in the process circuit, fill your system directly in this tank.
47 / 77 83000102.Kf
Procedure for chillers with automatic top-up:
top
If your machine is equipped with the optional 3.11 Automatic water feed, feed, the cold water circuit
can also be filled automatically. However, beforehand the tasks in 6.2.18 Electrical installation
must be completed. You must also install a hydraulic connection between your building water
system and the external filling connection of the machine.
machine. Please note that the inlet pressure
must not exceed 10 bar. The volumetric flow rate should be at least 0.75 m³/h. If this has been
done, activate the initial fill in the controller menu (→Main menu / Settings / First fill).. Note that
the first fill is controlled
ontrolled by the level in the internal tank. Before activating the first fill, always
ensure that the cold water circuit is free of leaks. The control adds fresh water until the operating
level is reached.

16: Filling and feed connection
48 / 77 83000102.Kf
6.2.17. Venting
If your chiller contains a horizontal pump (standard for cBoxX 30 – cBoxX 100), the pump does
not have to be vented. If your chiller contains a vertical pump (standard for cBoxX 120 – cBoxX
200) the pump has to be vented. To do this, before switching on the pump the vent plug must be
opened and left open while the unit is running until all air has completely escaped from the pump
body (see Figure 17).
17
Pump venting
(here: open-ended spanner SW9)
Figure 17:
17: Position of the pump vent (vertical type)
If your chiller is equipped with an internal tank, further water circulation ensures that the residual
air in the overall system can escape into the atmosphere via the open tank.
For machines without a tank we recommend installing an automatic venting valve at the highest
point in the cold water circuit.
49 / 77 83000102.Kf
6.2.18. Electrical installation
The chiller is connected electrically to its main supply terminal in the control cabinet. (see Figure

supply). A circuit diagram is supplied with the unit.
Figure 18:
18: Main supply
The dimensioning of the load cable and the fusing must be in accordance with the machine's
technical data and the local regulations of the power supply company.
The supply cable must be routed into the machine. Cut-outs are provided for this purpose in the
baseplate and in the compressor mount (cBoxX 30 – cBoxX 100). Feed the supply cable,
protected by rubber grommets, through these openings (see Figure 18 Main supply).
supply).
Never switch on the chiller immediately if the machine is moved from a cold into a warm room.
The condensing moisture can damage electronic components. For the initial startup or following a
lengthy period out of use all the electronic components must have become acclimatised.
50 / 77 83000102.Kf
Use an external control cable to set the chiller's release (see Chapter 8.3 External release)
release); this
cable is laid parallel with the supply cable and is wired at the corresponding terminals in the
control cabinet. The machine is bridged at the corresponding terminals on delivery.
If the electrical installation has been completed the phase sequence must be tested. This is done
by checking the rotational direction of the pump. This has a rotational direction arrow on it. If the
rotational direction does not match the arrow, the phase sequence can be corrected by swapping
two phases at the main supply.
7. Commissioning
Before commissioning the chiller the checklist must be used to check whether all the necessary
work in Chapter 6 Installation has been carried out properly.
The chiller must be installed for at least 12 hours at >+5 °C, so that the compressor oil can heat
up and the refrigerant can be liberated from the oil.
If your machine is equipped with oil sump heating and the machine has been completely
installed, it is permissible to switch on the machine at the main switch and to allow the
compressor to be preheated for at least 3 hours without enabling the cooling.
After checking the above list you can continue with Chapter 8 Operation.
Operation

OFF
If you select "OFF" mode, all electrical components except the compressor heater are
switched off.
This operating mode is to be selected if the chiller was disconnected from the power
supply in ambient temperatures <5°C for longer than 6 h. In this case the compressors
must be preheated for 3 h, so that the refrigerant can escape from the oil.
AUTO
With the selection of "AUTO" operating mode the machine is ready for use. The fully
automatic operation only starts in this mode if the external release has been installed
beforehand as described in Chapter 8.3 External release.
release.
ON
Fully automatic operation (without external release) starts with the selection of "ON"
mode.
8.4. Control
The chiller's control consists of a control board and a control panel, which communicate with each
other via a BUS connection. The control board operates autonomously so that if the control panel
or communication fails, operation continues to be possible if no other fault prevents operation.
The program, target / setpoint values, parameters and times are stored in an Eprom in the
control and are therefore retained even in the event of a power failure. Therefore the control does
not require a buffer battery.

The specific parameter list for your application is enclosed with the unit.
58 / 77 83000102.Kf
8.7. Controller description
The ideal state is if the level is above the warning level and below the maximum level. In this case
no message appears.
If the chiller is switched on and the min level warning is reached the chiller remains switched on
so that any cooling process that has been started is not interrupted. If the chiller is switched off,
the chiller does not start, to ensure that no cooling process is initiated that may not be able to be
ended.
From the Standby state, a software switch in the display can be used to switch the chiller between
Manual-Off-Auto or Manual-On. In Automatic mode the floating contact for the remote control
must be closed.
59 / 77 83000102.Kf
When the system is switched on the primary pumps are switched on with a 3.5 s delay. After a
further 3.5 s the fan control is released.
When the primary pump is switched on a timing element starts for each pump, which activates
the monitoring of the minimum and maximum cold water pressure at the pump outlet. When the
pump is switched on a timing element also starts for release of the compressor's temperature
control. The compressor's temperature control is released when the time of a pump has expired.
This time is also used for activation of the flow monitoring.
The pressure and flow monitoring takes place with two timing elements:
• Delay at start; the pressure or the flow monitoring does not trigger an alarm.
• Delay during operation; in order to ignore short-term fluctuations in pressure or flow, the
alarm is delayed.
When the system is switched off the temperature control is locked immediately and therefore the
compressor is switched off. The pump continues running to prevent uncontrolled continued
evaporation.

Different operating states reduce the number of cooling levels required by one cooling level:
• High pressure warning
• Low pressure warning
• Difference between high and low pressure is too large.
The compressors are requested depending on the controller output signal. The compressor with
the least number of operating hours switches on first. If no more refrigerating capacity is required
the compressor that switched on first also switches off first. The compressors are switched on
with a time delay (comment: only applies if several compressors exist)
In the event of a fault in a compressor (motor protection switch) a fault changeover is activated.
The high pressure is monitored on the hardware side by means of the high-pressure limiter. If it is
triggered all compressors switch off immediately. In addition, the high pressure is controlled by
means of a pressure transmitter. This also switches off the compressors if the setpoint is
exceeded, but releases them again if the value falls below the release value. Before switching off
the, high-pressure transmitter signals a warning.
61 / 77 83000102.Kf
Low pressure is also monitored by pressure transmitters. If the value falls below the setpoint the
compressors switch off. If the switch-off value is exceeded by the hysteresis, the compressors are
released again. The triggering of the alarm is delayed by two timing elements. The first timing
element is started with the request for the compressor. If no intake pressure has built up by the
time the time expires the low-pressure fault alarm is triggered. After the start time has expired the
low pressure may exceed the switch-off value for a short time. If this occurs more than three
times within an hour the compressors are blocked. Before a low-pressure fault is triggered a low-
pressure warning is signalled.

8.8.2. Comfort mode
In case of strict sound emission requirements the fan speed can be reduced to the minimum
necessary value in the respective operating point and sound power level limited to a minimum. To
do this the "Run" parameter must be set to "1". As a result of the lower air flow rate a reduced
output of around 3% is to be expected.
The optimised parameter list for your application is enclosed with the unit.
9. Cleaning
9.2. Condenser
To maintain high performance the microchannel heat exchanger must be cleaned if there is any
visible contamination, but at least annually. To do this, disconnect the unit from the power supply
and remove the service panels and the condenser protective grille (panels 3 and 5, see Chapter
Elements). First of all, remove coarse dirt particles from the outside using a standard vacuum
1.3 Elements
cleaner. Then flush the microchannel heat exchanger carefully, in the opposite direction to the air
flow, from inside with warm tap water. Then clean with a wet vacuum cleaner until the surface is
dry again. For versions with water cooled condensers see complete cleaning of the cold water
circuit.

10. Service
All service work may only be carried out by properly trained, competent personnel.
10.1. Maintenance
Reliable operation and a long service life for the entire system can be guaranteed by proper
maintenance.
An overview of the maintenance intervals as recommended by the VDMA is given in Appendix II. In
addition, the national regulations of the respective installation site must be followed.
Our technical customer service can be reached around the clock and will assist you with all
service matters (maintenance, repairs, spare parts, etc.):

energy.
11.1. Draining
If the system is filled and there is a risk of frost, suitable measures must be taken to protect the
liquid from frost. The complete cold water circuit must be fully drained before any a lengthy
stoppage of the unit. Do this as follows:
The drain cock is marked on the unit by the symbol in Figure 34.

65 / 77 83000102.Kf
To prevent frost damage the cold water circuit must then be flushed with a mixture of water and
40 % by vol Antifrogen-N (or equivalent).
12. Recycling
All parts (e.g. refrigerant, oil, glycol, metal, electronics, battery etc.) must be recycled, reused or
disposed of. Please note and follow all local and national regulations and if necessary contact
your local waste management agency.
A specialised disposal company must be contracted to dispose of these wastes. They issue a
proof of disposal which must be archived. The chiller can be returned to KKT chillers for disposal.
Please contact our KKT chillers Service Team for details (Table
Table 1 Contact details).
