3.3 POSITIONING

Read the following points carefully when choosing the most suitable site for the unit and its connections:

- dimensions and connection point of hydraulic pipelines;


- location of the electrical power connection point;
- accessibility for maintenance and repair work;
- loading capacity and compactness of the supporting surface;
- ventilation of air-cooled condenser;
- orientation and exposure to sunlight; as far as possible the condenser coil should not be
exposed to direct sunlight;
- direction of prevailing winds: do not position the unit in such a way that prevailing winds can give rise to air
recirculation at the condenser coil;
- type of support surface: to limit the risk of overheating, do not install the unit on a dark coloured surface
(e.g.bitumen roofing membranes and compounds);
- possible sound reverberation.

All models in the ZETA 2002 series are designed for exterior installation (patios, gardens, etc.):
of undesirable air recirculation, these units must not be covered by a shelter roof or located under trees (even if
the unit is only partially covered).
It is advisable to make a supporting plinth of dimensions commensurate with the footprint of the unit. This
precaution is indispensable if the unit is to be located on unstable ground (various types of terrain, gardens, etc.).
to avoid the risks of undesirable air recirculation, these units must not be covered by a shelter roof or located
under trees (even if the unit is only partially covered).
It is advisable to make a supporting plinth of dimensions commensurate with the footprint of the unit. This
precaution is indispensable if the unit is to be located on unstable ground.

The unit transmits a low level of vibration to the supporting structure: we recommend interposing a layer of rigid
rubber sheeting between the base of the unit and the supporting surface.
If a higher level of vibration damping is required, use anti-vibration mounts (contact Bluebox for details).

The units should not be installed next to offices, bedrooms, or other areas where low noise levels are a necessity.
To avoid excess sound reverberation do not install the units in narrow or confined spaces.

4.1 INSTALLATION CLEARANCES

It is important that an adequate air volume is available at the intake and exhaust sides of the condenser coil. It is
essential to avoid air recirculation between the intake and exhaust sides to prevent a reduction of the rated
performance levels and unit operating problems.
The minimum clearances required for satisfactory operation of the unit is as follows (refer to figures 3 and 4):

- condensing coil side: 1.5 metres


- electrical panel side: 1 metre
- compressors compartment side: 1 metre
- hydraulic connection sides: 1 metre.
- top: no impediments that obstruct the air discharge.
- units installed side by side: 4 metres.

4.2 ANTI-VIBRATION ISOLATORS (option)

It is recommended that the unit is installed on rubber or spring anti-vibration mountings, supplied as an option, to
reduce vibrations transmitted to the building structure. It is advisable to use rubber isolators for units installed in
the basement, or ground floors in contact with the earth, and spring isolators for units installed on intermediate
floors.

The anti-vibration isolators must be installed before the unit is positioned.


Ensure that during lifting the unit is firmly secured with straps.

4.2.1 Rubber Anti-Vibration Isolators

Rubber isolators are made of an upper metallic bell with a fixing screw to the base-frame of the unit. The isolator
is fixed at the foundation via 2 holes on the flange. On the flange there is a number (45, 60, 70 ShA) which
identifies the hardness of the rubber isolator. The dimensional drawing, enclosed in the machine, shows the unit
footprint with the position and weight of each isolator.

4.3 WATER PIPING CONNECTIONS

Unit water pipework must be installed in accordance with national and local regulation and codes.
Follow the recommendations below when designing the water piping circuit (refer to the diagrams included in this
manual).

- Piping should be connected to the unit with flexible joints, to avoid vibration transmission and allow for thermal
expansion (the same procedure should be adopted for the circulating pumps).

- The following devices should be located on the piping system:


- isolating/regulating valves, temperature gauges or thermometer pockets, pressure gauges or binder points
required for servicing operations.
- Serviceable mesh strainer, with a filtration level no larger than 1mm, located on the unit inlet to prevent
debris from entering the heat exchangers.
- vent valves, to be installed in the upper parts of the circuit, for air bleeding.
- expansion device with accessories for circuit pressurisation, water thermal expansion compensation and
system filling.
- unload valve and if necessary drainage tank for circuit emptying during maintenance and seasonal stop.

4.4 EVAPORATOR WATER PIPE CONNECTIONS

The water inlet and outlet must be connected in the positions indicated
as labelled on the unit.

EVAPORATOR WATER

If incorrectly connected the antifreeze thermostat will not operate and the evaporator may freeze.
The hydraulic connections are threaded. The type and size are indicated on the dimensional drawings at the end
of this manual.

A constant water flow to the evaporator must be guaranteed at all


operating conditions to prevent liquid refrigerant from entering the
compressor and causing irreparable damage.

Compressors start and stop often due to changes in cooling demand. In hydraulic circuits with low water volume,
where the thermal inertia action is low, it is advisable to verify that the water volume equals or exceeds the
following ratio:
24 · QCOMPTOT
M>= ---------------------
N
where:

M = system water content [kg]


QCOMPTOT = unit cooling capacity [kW]
N = number of capacity steps

If the water volume does not reach the value given by the formula, it is advisable to provide the circuit with a
storage vessel to increase the volume (tank + circuit) to match the result of the formula.
The chilled water piping and storage vessel must be insulated to prevent condensation on the pipe surfaces and
to avoid circuit performance losses.

For models from 3.2 to 13.2 it is mandatory to install a flow switch


(supplied with the unit) on the evaporator water outlet connection identified
by the following decal:

USER WATER

For models from 14.4 to 26.4 the flow switch is already installed as part
of the standard equipment.

Blue Box - 40
All units are equipped with plate heat exchangers. It is compulsory to
install a metallic filter, on the water inlet piping, with a mesh not larger
than 1 mm. If a filter is not installed the warranty will be terminated
immediately.

We strongly recommend installing a pressure relief valve on the hydraulic


circuit. In the event of serious system breakdown or emergency (e.g.
fire), the relief valve will make it possible to depressurise the system
thus forestalling possible pipe bursts. Always connect the relief valve
outlet to a pipe of diameter no smaller than the valve opening, and route
it to a location in which persons are protected from the jet of expelled
water.

Caution: When making hydraulic connections never use naked flames


close to or inside the unit.

4.5 WATER FLOW SWITCH INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (models 3.2 to 13.2)

- Clean the pipeline system into which the flow switch is to be fitted and take away any magnetic particle, such
as welding residues. To prevent turbulent flow there must be straight pipework, equal to 5 times the diameter
of the pipe, either side of the flow switch.

" Connect the "T" shaped metallic manifold (on which the flow switch is mounted) into the evaporator male
threaded water outlet labelled with:

USER WATER

To avoid leakage, seal the connection by using teflon. The flow switch should be installed on the heat exchanger
that is closer to the electrical board.

- The flow switch must be tightened on the “T” shaped metallic manifold by the plastic knurled union nut. Check
that the arrow located on the upper side is pointing in the direction of flow.Be sure to fit the O-ring seal, through
the brass manifold and the plastic ring nut. The O-ring seal is supplied in a plastic cover to protect the flow
switch shaft.

- Connect the flow switch to the other end of the “T” manifold.

- Route the flow switch electrical cable through the hole in the unit structure and run it to the electrical panel by
ascending the upright in the machine interior. Connect the flow switch to terminals 1-14 as indicated on the
electrical drawing.

- The flow switch can be removed by screwing out the plastic knurled union nut. In order to reassemble it, ensure
that the o-ring seal is positioned in the proper location. (See figure10).

4.7 ZETA 2002/DC HEAT RECOVERY EXCHANGER HYDRAULIC CONNECTIONS

For all units equipped with a recovery condenser, the relative hydraulic circuit connections are male threaded
steel pipes (the diameter depends on the unit's size)
The units are equipped with a probe that monitors the temperature of the water returning from the system. The
microprocessor controller enables recovery when necessary, disconnecting the fans, and restarting regular operation
once the water has reached the desired temperature.
If faults occur on the recovery condenser the microprocessor controller restarts the fans.
The calibration values of the thermostat and pressure switches are given in the relevant controller instruction
manual.

For units equipped with a recovery condenser:

The water inlet and outlet must be connected in the positions indicated
as labelled on the unit.

This method ensures that the recovery unit is supplied with a flow that increases as the water temperature rises,
thus allowing the system to operating with optimum functional parameters at all times.

4.8 PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES

Pressure relief valves are fitted on the high pressure side and low pressure side of the refrigerant circuit. The
valves must be vented, to outdoors, through a vent pipe.
The vent pipe must be sized no smaller than the relief valve and it must not be supported from the valve.

Caution: The relief valve must be directed into a safe zone where no
injuries can be caused to people.

Blue Box - 44
4.9 CONNECTIONS FOR VERSION /LE (MOTOCONDENSING UNIT)

/LE (condensing unit) versions must be connected to a remote evaporator by means of refrigerant lines.
For separate section type /LE versions, the route followed by refrigerant lines depends on the location of the
sections and the characteristics of the surrounding building structure.
Pipe runs should be as short as possible to limit the pressure drop and the refrigerant charge volume. The
maximum permissible pipeline length is 30 metres.
If this limits cannot be adhered to contact Blue Box for further information.

4.9.1 Procedures to follow when sizing refrigerant lines

Depending on the relative position of the sections, there are certain procedures to follow when installing the
refrigerant line.

4.9.2 Evaporating section at lower level than condensing section:

a) The vertical riser must be equipped with siphons at least every 6 metres to facilitate the return of oil to the
compressor;

b) Make a collection pit on the suction line downstream of the thermostatic valve bulb;

c) Horizontal sections of the suction line should follow a grade of at least 1% to facilitate oil return to the
compressor (see above).

The diameter of pipes can be obtained from table 1, according to the selected model and length of connecting
pipes.

4.9.3 Evaporating section positioned higher than the condensing unit section:

a) Form a siphon on the suction line,at the same height as the evaporator, to avoid drainage of liquid towards the
compressor when the unit is stopped.

b) Make a collection pit on the suction line, downstream from the thermostatic valve bulb, for the collection of
liquid refrigerant that can accumulate during unit shutdown. When the compressor restarts the refrigerant will
evaporate rapidly: it is advisable to create the accumulation pit well away from the bulb to avoid the risk of
affecting the operation of the thermostatic valve.

c) Horizontal sections of the suction line should follow a grade of at least 1% to facilitate oil return to the
compressor.

4.10 WATER FLOW RATE TO EVAPORATOR

The nominal water flow rate is based on a 5 °C temperature difference between inlet and outlet in relation to the
supplied cooling capacity.

The maximum permissible flow rate is that which results in a temperature difference of 3 °C: higher flow rates will
lead to excessive pressure drops and could damage the evaporator.

The minimum permissible flow rate is that which results in a temperature difference of 8 °C or a pressure drop of
no less than 10 kPa: lower flow rates will lead to excessively low evaporation temperatures with consequent
tripping of safety devices and shutdown of the unit.

4.11 CHILLER WATER TEMPERATURE (summer cycle)

For the minimum water temperature at the evaporator outlet refer to section 4.14.
The maximum water temperature at the evaporator inlet is 20 °C. In the case of higher temperatures specific
solutions are necessary (dual circuits, three-way valves, by-pass, storage tanks): consult the Bluebox Engineering
Department to discuss the most suitable solution for your application.

4.12 HOT WATER TEMPERATURE (winter cycle)

The minimum water temperature at the condenser inlet, once the system is operating in steady state conditions,
must be no lower than 23 °C: lower values could result in operating anomalies of the compressor with the
consequent risk of compressor breakdown.
The maximum water temperature at the condenser outlet must be no higher than 48 °C. In the event of higher
temperatures the safety devices will trip causing the unit to shut down.

Warning: speed control calibration settings must not be altered. If it


proves necessary to alter speed calibration settings, this task must be
entrusted to a skilled engineer, who should refer to the attached instruction
sheet.

4.13 Ambient air temperature

- The units are designed and built to operate with ambient air temperatures within the limits shown on the
operating limits diagrams. Contact Bluebox if the unit is required to operate at different ambient temperatures.
- It should be noted that the performance of heat pump units decreases significantly at lower ambient temperatures.
- The units can be optionally equipped with an electric element for heating the evaporator. The heater cuts in,
when the machine is switched off, if the water temperature in the evaporator falls below the freeze protection
calibration temperature.

4.14 FAN SPEED CONTROL (optional)

If the unit is required to operate at ambient air temperatures less than 18 °C a fan speed controller must be
included. With fan speed control the unit can function correctly, at low ambient temperatures, by reducing the air
flow supplied to the condenser so that it operates within acceptable parameters.
This control is calibrated and tested in the factory.

Blue Box - 47
4.15 OPERATION WITH LOW TEMPERATURE CHILLED WATER AT EVAPORATOR

Units from the normal production range are not designed to operate with
lower chilled water temperatures, at the evaporator outlet, than those
indicated in the operating limit diagrams. To operate outside this limit
the unit may require structural modifications. If this should become
necessary Bluebox.

With temperatures lower than those shown in the operating limit diagrams, the hydraulic circuit should be filled
with a suitable water and antifreeze solution. In such cases the service thermostat and the freeze protection
thermostat must be reset:

These calibrations are normally set in the factory.

The ethylene glycol percentage must be selected in relation to the required chilled water temperature.
See Table 2.

4.16 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

4.16.1 General

Electrical connections must be made in accordance with the information given on the electrical drawing attached
to the unit and in compliance with the applicable local regulations.

An Earth (ground) connection is compulsory. The installer must connect the earth cable with a dedicated terminal
on the earth bar in the electrical board (refer to the illustration on the following page) labelled PE.

It must be verified that the electrical supply corresponds to the unit electrical nominal data (tension, phases,
frequency) indicated on the label on the front panel of the unit.

Line voltage fluctuations must not be more than ±5% of the nominal value, while the voltage unbalance between
one phase and another must not exceed 2%. If these tolerances are not possible contact Blue Box to provide the
necessary devices.

Check that the line is connected with the correct phase sequence.

The cable inlet point is created by drilling a hole in the side or base of the electrical enclosure, depending on the
model.

The control circuit is derived from the power supply through a transformer located inside the electrical panel.

The control circuit is protected by fuses.

Electrical cable anchorage: anchor the electrical power cables with fixing
systems able to withstand pulling and torsional stress.

Before any operation on the electrical section, be sure that the electric
supply is disconnected.

Power cable and line protection must be sized according to the


specification indicated on the wiring diagram and the documents supplied
with the unit.

The crankcase heaters must be connected at least 12 hours before starting


the unit; the heaters are automatically connected when the main
disconnect switch is set to the ON position.

The electrical supply must be within the limits shown. If this is not the
case the warranty will be terminated immediately.

Blue Box - 55
4.16.2 Power supply to crankcase heaters

1) Close the main disconnect switch by turning it from position “0” to position “1”
2) Check that the word “OFF” is shown on the display
3) Ensure that the unit is in “OFF” status and that the external enabling contact is open
4) After a few moments, if the phase sequence is incorrect the alarm “INCORRECT PHASE SEQUENCE” will be
displayed (4-compressor models from 14.4 to 26.4 only, with pCO2 controller). In this case invert the connections
of two of the power line phase wires.
5) Leave the unit in this condition for at least 12 hours to allow the crankcase heaters to perform their function

4.16.3 Potential free contacts

The following potential free contacts are available:


- 1 potential free contact for general alarm (terminals 100 - 101 - 102)
- 1 potential free contact for each compressor (option)
- 1 contact for each pair of fans (option)
- 1 contact for each pump (option - ST models)

4.16.4 Flow switch electrical connections

Flow switch electrical connections (see paragraph 4.4 ) must be connected to terminal 1-14 for chiller units.

4.16.5 Circulating pump electrical connections

The external interlocks of unit must close for the unit to operate. The normally open external water circulating
pump contactor terminals must be wired in series with terminals 1 and 2, on the unit control panel, to ensure that
the chiller can only start after the pump is in operation.
In ST units external enabling contacts 1-2 must be jumpered (unless they are required for system functions).

Turn on the pump before the unit starts and stop it after the unit has
stopped (recommended time delay: 60 sec.).

4.17 MICROPROCESSOR CONTROLLERS

Chillers in the ZETA 2002 series with 2 scroll compressors, models from 3.2 to 13.2, are equipped with the
mCHILLER type microprocessor controller.

Chillers in the ZETA 2002 series with 4 scroll compressors, models from 14.4 to 26.4, are equipped with the pCO2
microprocessor controller.

Blue Box - 56
4.17.1 Microprocessor controller for /LE and HP/LE versions

- Versions ZETA 2002 /LE and ZETA 2002 HP/LE with two compressors are equipped with an mchiller controller.

- Versions ZETA 2002 /LE and ZETA 2002 HP/LE with four compressors do not have an integral controller and
therefore an external controller, or thermostats, must be connected to the auxiliary terminals 1-21, 1-31, 1-41
and 1-51.

Consult the electrical diagram attached to the unit.

4.17.2 RS485 serial interface (optional)

All units can be equipped with a serial interface board for supervision or remote diagnostics
functions by means of a computer.

The serial interface board plugs into a dedicated slot on the connection board.
Connection to the supervision or remote diagnostics serial line is executed in compliance with standard RS485
and is achieved by means of the serial interface boards.

Models from 3.2 to 13.2 with two scroll compressors and µchiller controller

When the serial interface board is inserted the Carel communications protocol is available.
A conversion gateway is required for the Modbus-jbus and BacNet protocols.

Models from 14.4 to 26.4 with 4 scroll compressors and pCO 2 controller

When the serial interface board is inserted the following communications protocols are available: Carel, Modbus-
jbus, BacNet. If a connection is to be made with networks that utilise the Lon-Talk protocol, a dedicated board
must be installed.
In this case, a conversion gateway is not required.

5. START-UP

5.1 PRELIMINARY CHECKS

- Check that the electrical connections have been made correctly, and that all terminals are well tightened.

- Check that the voltage on the RST terminals is 400 V ± 5% (or the unit’s rated value, in the event of units
supplied to run on non-standard power supplies). If the mains voltage is subject to frequent fluctuations, consult
our Engineering Department to discuss the necessary protection systems.

- Check that the display shows the gas pressure in the refrigerant circuit (4-compressor models only).

- Inspect the unit for refrigerant leaks using a leak detector if necessary.

- Check that the crankcase heaters are correctly supplied with power.

Significant leakage of R407C refrigerant in the gaseous state will alter


the percentages of the remaining mixture with consequent fall-off of
performance.

The heaters must be connected at least 12 hours before starting the unit;
the heaters are automatically connected when the main disconnect switch
is set to the ON position.

- Verify that heaters are working correctly: after the warm up period the crankcase must be warm to the touch
and must have at least a temperature 10 - 15 °C higher than ambient temperature.

- Check that all hydraulic connections are correctly installed and all indications on unit labels are observed.

- Check that the hydraulic system has been vent to eliminate any air remaining; charge it gradually and open the
vent devices on the upper part, provided at the care of the installer together with an expansion tank of a proper
size.

Warning: before starting up the unit check that all the closing panels are
in position and secured with the relative screws.

6 UNIT WITH mCHILLER MICROPROCESSOR (models from 3.2 to 13.2)


6.1 INTRODUCTION
“µchiller” is an electronic microprocessor system designed to control all the unit’s functions.
The terminal is equipped with five LEDs indicating the operating status of the machine (summer/winter), the
compressor status (On/Off) and indication of the compressors/pump hour counter after the first 100 hours of
operation. An internal beeper (which can be inhibited by means of a microswitch or a parameter) sounds to warn
of machine operating anomalies.

6.1.1 Display
The display comprises three digits with automatic display of the decimal point. During normal operation the
display shows the value of the evaporator inlet water temperature.
“µchiller” can be connected to a computer, by means of an optional electronic board, making available remote
supervision and telediagnostic services for complete management, supervision and diagnostics of the systems
from a remote location.

6.1.11 Defrosting (heat pump mode only)


During winter heat pump mode operation the finned coil of the air cooled condenser functions as an evaporator,
cooling and dehumidifying ambient air.
During heat pump operation, the evaporation pressure is monitored to prevent it from falling below a preset
value. The evaporation control is active only during heating mode operation.
Depending on the ambient air temperature and humidity conditions, condensate or frost will tend to form,
consequently obstructing the free passage of air and causing thermal insulation. The frost that builds up on the
coil obstructs the passage of air and reduces the available heat exchange surface area (and thus the thermal
efficiency) and can damage the heat exchanger.
Defrosting is the procedure that eliminates the ice that has formed on the evaporator coil during heat pump mode
operation of an air/water unit.
Defrosting is performed simultaneously for the entire unit.
All heat pump versions are equipped with a control that activates an automatic coil defrost cycle when necessary.
After starting however, the first defrost cycle will be started after a preset minimum operating time to allow the
formation of sufficient thermal inertia to allow the cycle to be completed successfully.
Defrost cycle activation is based on the detection of a low suction pressure value due to insufficient heat exchange
between the evaporator and the air due to the formation of a layer of ice, which exerts a thermal insulation
effect. For a defrost cycle to be able to start a suction pressure of at least one of the currently operating compressors
must remain below the pressure set for the defrost cycle trip signal for a preset time interval.
Before starting to defrost the coils, all the compressors are started, after which the unit reverses its operation from
heat pump to chiller mode.
When the cycle is reversed the fans stop and the compressors force hot gas into the coil.
A pressure switch on the high pressure circuit maintains the discharge gas pressure below the defrost end value.
To maintain the pressure lower than the defrost end pressure the pressure switch activates the fans.
To reduce the air flow and obtain more efficient heating of the outer part of the coil, the pressure switch signal
causes the fans to rotate in reverse.
When the defrost end temperature is reached, as measured by a thermostat with a probe located in the lower
part of the coil, the pressure switch allows the discharge pressure to reach the defrost end pressure.
When the defrost end pressure has been reached, the controller reverses the unit from chiller mode to heat pump
mode, thereby terminating the defrost procedure.
Even though in certain conditions the surface temperature of the coil and the condensation pressure fail to reach
the defrost values within the preset time limit, the defrost cycle is forcibly terminated as though the defrost end
signal were present. The controller restarts the fans, and when the pressure lowers again to the preset value, it
reverses the unit’s operating mode again.
If the defrost cycle is forcibly interrupted, with the timeout signal, a message is displayed on the controller,
although no controller functions are activated.
The defrost timeout alarm is automatically cleared from the active alarms menus when a defrost cycle terminates

Blue Box - Page 64


Models 3.2 - 13.2, µchiller control

normally because the defrost end pressure has been reached. In any event, the alarms historical file will contain
a record of all defrost cycles that were terminated forcibly due to a timeout intervention.
Consecutive defrost cycles must be at least 30 minutes apart. If the forced defrost signal persists, inform the
Service organisation.

If the unit fails to start: do not change internal electrical connections on


penalty of immediate invalidation of the warranty.

Warning: The operating mode changeover should only be seasonal.


Frequent changeover from summer to winter operating mode and vice-
versa could cause damage to the compressors.

During idle periods do not disconnect the unit from the power supply (the
compressor crankcase heaters must remain switched on). Disconnect the
unit from the power supply only in the event of prolonged disuse (e.g.
seasonal shutdowns). For temporary shutdown of the unit refer to the
guide lines given in the specific headings of this manual.

Electronic components of the microprocessor may be damaged at


temperatures below - 20 °C.

6.2 STARTING THE UNIT

The ZETA 2002 unit is equipped, as standard, with direct keypad control.
Optionally the unit can be equipped to operate via a remote permissive (e.g. a clock, etc.). The remote interlock
must be connected across terminals 1-2. Enabling the unit to start or stop is only possible via the keypad.

Warning: do not use the machine main power switch to stop the unit.
The crankcase heaters will be disconnected, resulting in serious risk to
the compressors when the unit is started again.

Blue Box - Page 66


Models 3.2 - 13.2, µchiller control

6.3.2 Seasonal stop:


- Disconnect the power supply
- Drain the system circuit (unless it contains a water/glycol solution)
- When the unit is to be restarted repeat the initial start-up procedure

Warning: do not use the machine main power switch to stop the unit:
this switch must be used to disconnect the electrical supply when no
current is flowing on the circuit, i.e. only when the unit is in OFF status.
Note also that if power is disconnected from the unit the crankcase
heaters will be switched off with the resulting risk of compressor damage
at the time of restarting.

6.4 EMERGENCY STOP

Emergency stops are obtained by turning the red colour main disconnect switch on the electrical panel to position
0.

7. TROUBLESHOOTING
The following pages contain a list of the most common causes that can result in the shutdown or anomalous
operation of the chiller. Faults are arranged in accordance with easily identifiable symptoms.

In relation to possible corrective action pay maximum attention to the


operations you intend to perform as overconfidence coupled with
insufficient attention due to lack of expertise can lead to serious accidents.
We therefore recommend that Blue Box or other skilled HVAC engineers
are contacted to identify and correct the problem.

8 UNIT WITH pCO 2 MICROPROCESSOR (models from 14.4 to 26.4)


8.1 INTRODUCTION
The pCO2 electronic microprocessor controller with the DBBB0*P20Z program is designed to manage chiller and
heat pump units, with control of 4 compressors.
The program configuration manages the total control of the air-cooled unit with plate exchangers including
compressor start/stop times, safety devices and other auxiliary functions such as condensation control in cooling
mode, free-cooling, heat recovery and other functions described later in this manual.
The necessary hardware is optimised to obtain the maximum advantage from the available inputs and outputs;
the connection between various circuit boards and the user interface terminal is achieved via the pLANE using the
dedicated RS485 serial connector for network connections.
Each unit can also be connected to remote supervision and/or telediagnostics systems by means of an RS485
serial line.

Detailed information on the operation of the above systems is provided in the specific controller manual supplied

8.2 OPERATING DESCRIPTION

8.2.1 Introduction

The microprocessor control regulates the water temperature of the evaporator maintaining it at the set-point
value acting on the compressors management.
As well as the compressors the controller manages the operation of other components of the chiller such as the
pumps (ST version) and fans, with relative operating times and alarms, and "ancillary" functions such as condensation
control, etc., as described below.

Almost all the parameters referred to below (set-points, differentials, calibration, delays...) can be programmed
by means of the various menus. Refer to the specific manual for the pCO2 controller.

8.2.2 Unit in stand-by mode

The unit is in stand-by mode when it is correctly supplied with power but not actually enabled to operate.
In this condition the display shows the values of the various machine parameters, but the operation of the
compressor is not inhibited.
Power-on is obtained by pressing the “ON-OFF” button of the microprocessor control or via an external interlock.

8.2.3 Enabling the unit

Start-up of the unit from stand-by mode can be achieved after closing the external enabling contact, by pressing
the “ON/OFF” button, or by means of a signal on the serial line.
Activation of the controller outputs that manage the various sections of the chiller is executed in strict compliance
with the operating times. If the “ON” button is pressed before the external interlocks are closed, the display
indicates which of the external interlocks is not yet enabled.
Operation of the pump has priority to the compressors, which can start only after the evaporator and condenser
pumps are running.

8.2.4 Pump management (ST units only)

If system pump control is included switching on the unit will automatically enable the pump.
If there are two pumps (run and stand-by) they will be activated alternately when the programmed operating time
limit for each pump has elapsed.
When the pumps are switched over both pumps will run in tandem, for a few seconds, to ensure a constant flow
of water in the system circuit.
When the unit is switched from active status to stand-by, if performed by opening an external permissive, the
currently active pump of the ST unit will be stopped with a delay interval, after the disconnection of the last
compressor in operation, making it possible to exploit the thermal inertia of the system.

8.2.5 Compressor start-up

The controller allows the compressors to be started if the flow switch input is closed within the compressor start-
up delay time interval. If the flow switch input opens, after the compressor has started, the trip is retarded if it
occurs within the time programmed for the compressor stop.
If the unit trips due to the opening of the flow switch input, the relative alarm is displayed.
Starting and stopping of the compressors and capacity step control is managed by the controller in accordance
with the building cooling demands.

8.2.6 Chiller mode operation

In chiller operation, the controller lowers the water temperature value, maintaining it as close as possible to the
programmed set-point.

Blue Box - Page 77


Models 14.4 - 26.4, pCO2 control

In the standard version, in which the control acts on the evaporator entering water, the management of compressor
operation and capacity steps is linked to the difference between the entering water temperature and the programmed
set-point.

8.2.7 Heat pump mode operation

In heat pump operation, the controller increases the water temperature value, maintaining it as close as possible
to the programmed set-point.
Management of compressor operation is performed in the same way as already illustrated for chiller mode
operation.

8.2.8 Evaporator low temperature chilled water protection

If the evaporator leaving water temperature is lower than the limit value programmed in the low temperature
chilled water protection set-point, the controller will stop all the compressors and activate the low temperature
water alarm.
This alarm must be reset manually and the compressor restarted only when the evaporator leaving water tempe-
rature is equal to or higher than the alarm trip value, increased by the low temperature water differential.
The low temperature water alarm can only appear when the unit is switched on (in stand-by conditions the freeze
alarm is not operational).

8.2.9 Evaporator anti-freeze protection electric heater (optional)

In conditions that lead to tripping the freeze alarm, the controller energises the heater.
The heater remains powered for the entire time that the conditions for the freeze alarm continue.
Unlike the low water temperature alarm, which is enabled only when the unit is powered on, the anti-freeze
heater can be energised when the machine is on stand-by.

8.2.10 Compressor operation

When the unit is running correctly and no general alarms are present, the microprocessor controller starts the
compressors in accordance with the water temperature reading.
Compressor starts are staggered in accordance with preset delay intervals, thus avoiding excess input current
surges.
Before starting a compressor, the microprocessor checks the value of the delivery pressure by means of the
relevant transducer, the status of the high pressure switch and the compressor motor windings temperature by
checking the thermal protection.

When the compressor has been started, tripping of any of the safety devices will cause the compressor to stop
immediately and an alarm will be displayed.
While the compressor is running, discharge pressure and suction pressure are monitored constantly by means of
the relevant sensors.

On unit start-up the first compressor is started with a delay, set on the microprocessor controller, after the start of
the hydraulic system circulating pump.
Once started, each compressor must run for a minimum operating period, unless a critical alarm should trip in the
meantime.
The critical alarms which can stop the compressor during the minimum operating time are the high pressure
alarm and the compressor thermal cut-out alarm. Once stopped each compressor can be restarted only after a
minimum idle time or after a minimum time interval between two consecutive starts has elapsed.
The consecutive starting of two compressors or the consecutive starting of one compressor, is executed with
minimum delay intervals equal to the capacity step activation time.
Stopping compressors is also performed with a minimum programmed delay interval.

Blue Box - Page 78


Models 14.4 - 26.4, pCO2 control

8.2.11 Compressor management

Start-up of the compressors is automatic when the reference water temperature changes with respect to the
programmed set-point.
Normally the reference water temperature is the value detected at the inlet to the chiller unit.
Balancing of duty hours over all the compressors in the unit is performed by selecting the rotation of starts.
With the rotation function of starts active, the first compressor to start is the first one that previously stopped. The
first compressor to start will be the one with the least operating hours.

8.2.12 High and low pressure alarms

Discharge pressure (high pressure) and suction pressure (low pressure) are managed by the microprocessor controller
through the relevant sensors.
When a compressor is running, the controller checks that:
- Discharge pressure is always lower than the safety value set for cooling or heating mode operation. If the values
are exceeded, the controller immediately stops the compressor and displays a high pressure alarm. The high
pressure alarm can be reset manually on the controller only when the pressure detected by the discharge
pressure sensor is lower than the value that caused the alarm to trip, less the differential value.
- The suction pressure is always higher than the safety value set for operation in cooling or heating mode. If the
value read by the suction pressure sensor is lower than the limits set for the relative operating conditions, the
controller will stop the compressor and generate a low pressure alarm. The low pressure alarm is not instantaneous,
but operates after a preset delay interval, both in the starting phase and during the normal running of the
machine. The low pressure alarm can be reset automatically or manually, depending on the relative parameter
setting. In all cases the low pressure alarm can only be reset when the pressure detected by the suction sensor
is higher than the value that caused the alarm to trip, plus the differential value. It is possible to program the
number of permissible consecutive compressor starts before the unit shuts down in safety status.

8.2.13 Low ambient temperature kit (option - condensing control with fan speed regulator)

As the ambient air temperature decreases the necessary condensing pressure for correct operation of the chiller
cycle is maintained, within the machine operating range, by adjusting the cooling air flow through the condenser.
Condensing pressure control is only active when the machine is operating in chiller mode.
When the unit is operating in heat pump mode this function is inhibited and the fans are forced to their maximum
speed.
The controller checks the condensing pressure and adjusts fan speed on the basis of the circuit with the highest
pressure reading. The speed regulator adjusts fan speed with a phase control system that minimises problems
related to electromagnetic compatibility.
Speed control is available over a 40-100% range. At the time of start-up the fans always run at 40% nominal
speed.

8.2.14 Changeover from chiller to heat pump and vice versa

The changeover from chiller to heat pump and back can be performed at any time, either by means of an
external signal on a digital input, from the keypad, or via the serial line. The operating mode changeover must be
only seasonal and only with the unit off.
After a mode changeover, the controller re-starts the unit in the new mode with a factory set minimum delay
time.
The unit operates with temperature control on the inlet to which has been inactive for the longest time. the unit
(or return from the system).

8.2.15 Defrosting (heat pump units only)

During heat pump operation, the evaporation pressure is monitored to prevent it from falling below a preset
value. The evaporation control is active only during heating mode operation.
Depending on the ambient air temperature and humidity conditions, condensate or frost will tend to form,
consequently obstructing the free passage of air and causing thermal insulation. The frost that builds up on the
coil obstructs the passage of air and reduces the available heat exchange surface area (and thus the thermal
efficiency) and can damage the heat exchanger.
Defrosting is the procedure that eliminates the ice that has formed on the evaporator coil during heat pump mode
operation of an air/water unit.
Defrosting is performed simultaneously for the entire unit.
All heat pump versions are equipped with a control that activates an automatic coil defrost cycle when necessary.
After starting however, the first defrost cycle will be started after a preset minimum operating time to allow the
formation of sufficient thermal inertia to allow the cycle to be completed successfully.
Defrost cycle activation is based on the detection of a low suction pressure value due to insufficient heat exchange
between the evaporator and the air due to the formation of a layer of ice, which exerts a thermal insulation
effect. For a defrost cycle to be able to start a suction pressure of at least one of the currently operating compressors
must remain below the pressure set for the defrost cycle trip signal for a preset time interval.

Before starting to defrost the coils, all the compressors are started, after which the unit reverses its operation from
heat pump to chiller mode.
When the cycle is reversed the fans stop and the compressors force hot gas into the coil.
A pressure switch on the high pressure circuit maintains the discharge gas pressure below the defrost end value.
To maintain the pressure lower than the defrost end pressure the pressure switch activates the fans.
To reduce the air flow and obtain more efficient heating of the outer part of the coil, the pressure switch signal
causes the fans to rotate in reverse.
When the defrost end temperature is reached, as measured by a thermostat with a probe located in the lower
part of the coil, the pressure switch allows the discharge pressure to reach the defrost end pressure.
When the defrost end pressure has been reached, the controller reverses the unit from chiller mode to heat pump
mode, thereby terminating the defrost procedure.
Even though in certain conditions the surface temperature of the coil and the condensation pressure fail to reach
the defrost values within the preset time limit, the defrost cycle is forcibly terminated as though the defrost end
signal were present. The controller restarts the fans, and when the pressure lowers again to the preset value, it
reverses the unit’s operating mode again.
If the defrost cycle is forcibly interrupted, with the timeout signal, a message is displayed on the controller,
although no controller functions are activated.
The defrost timeout alarm is automatically cleared from the active alarms menus when a defrost cycle terminates
normally because the defrost end pressure has been reached. In any event, the alarms historical file will contain
a record of all defrost cycles that were terminated forcibly due to a timeout intervention.
Consecutive defrost cycles must be at least 30 minutes apart. If the forced defrost signal persists, inform the
Service organisation.

8.2.16 Total heat recovery (option)

Heat recovery is the function where all the energy that would normally be rejected to the air cooled condenser is
recovered at a refrigerant to water condenser installed in series with the air-cooled condenser.
The heat recovery process is managed by the microprocessor controller.
During energy recovery the fans are stopped and the condensing coil is by-passed via solenoid valves connected
downstream of the thermostat valve. The machine is equipped with a liquid receiver.
Heat recovery can only occur when the water temperature at the recovery exchanger inlet is lower than the
recovery set-point. Heat recovery is terminated when the temperature increases by the recovery differential
value.
It is mandatory to use a condensing pressure control valve (one for each hydraulic circuit) or three-way valve,
fitted by the installer, to avoid condensation values that are incompatible with operation of the machine.

8.2.17 Dual set-point (option)

Blue Box - Page 80


Models 14.4 - 26.4, pCO2 control

Operation with a dual set-point is possible only in chiller mode.


With double thermostatic valves and solenoid valves that are automatically switched according to the required
expansion temperature. Two set-point values can be programmed on the microprocessor controller via the keypad
or a digital input. Switching of the thermostatic valves is always automatic, in accordance with the water tempe-
rature.
The valves are sized on the basis of the temperature values specified at the time of the order. The machine
operating limits shown in the catalogue are not affected. If the hydraulic circuit contains glycol in sufficient
quantities to eliminate the risk of freezing, the lower limit is extended to a minimum of -5 °C leaving water
temperature.

8.2.18 Operation leaving water temperature control (option)

With leaving chilled water temperature control the reference sensor must be installed on the evaporator outlet or,
if there is more than one evaporator, on the common outlet pipeline downstream from the relative manifold.
The unit’s capacity steps are activated / deactivated with delay intervals in relation to a dead zone. When the
leaving water temperature is higher than the programmed set-point compressors start is enabled.

Blue Box - Page 81


Models 14.4 - 26.4, pCO2 control

8.3 STARTING THE UNIT

For the start-up procedure refer also to the microprocessor controller manual.

- Close the external enabling contacts


- Press the "ON" button on the microprocessor controller
- If all the controls are enabled the display will show the message "UNIT ON"

After having performed the above procedures the unit will start automatically after a delay of approximately 5
minutes, assuming that the enabling signals of the microprocessor, the flow switches, and the water pumps
continue to be present.

If the unit fails to start: do not change internal electrical connections on


penalty of immediate invalidation of the warranty.

Important: on heat pump versions the operating cycle must be reversed


at the start and end of the season. Frequent switching from summer to
winter mode, and vice versa, should be avoided at all costs because it
can lead to malfunctions and subsequent breakdown of the compressors.

During idle periods do not disconnect the unit from the power supply (the
compressor crankcase heaters must remain switched on in these intervals).
Disconnect the unit from the power supply only in the event of prolonged
disuse (e.g. seasonal shutdowns). For temporary shutdown of the unit
refer to the guide lines given in paragraph 8.4.

8.4 STOPPING THE UNIT

8.4.1 Temporary stop:


- To stop the unit press the "OFF" button on the front panel.

8.4.2 Seasonal stop:


- Disconnect the power supply
- Drain the system circuit (unless it contains a water/glycol solution) Figure 29
- When the unit is to be restarted repeat the initial start-up procedure

Warning: do not use the machine main power switch to stop the unit:
this switch must be used to disconnect the electrical supply when no
current is flowing on the circuit, i.e. only when the unit is in OFF status.
Note also that if power is disconnected from the unit, the crankcase
heaters will be switched off with the resulting risk of compressor damage
at the time of restarting.

Blue Box - Page 82


Models 14.4 - 26.4, pCO2 control

8.5 EMERGENCY STOP

Emergency stops are obtained by turning the red colour main disconnect switch on the electrical panel to position 0.

9. TROUBLESHOOTING
The following pages contain a list of the most common causes that can result in the shutdown or anomalous
operation of the chiller. Faults are arranged in accordance with easily identifiable symptoms.

In relation to possible corrective action, adopt the maximum attention in


the operations you intend to perform as overconfidence coupled with
insufficient attention due to lack of expertise can lead to serious accidents.
We therefore recommend that Blue Box or other skilled HVAC engineers
are contacted to identify and correct the problem.

10 CHECKS DURING OPERATION
10.1 INTRODUCTION

- Check that the water temperature at the evaporator inlet is close to the set-point value of the service thermostat.

- For units equipped with pump units, if the pump runs noisily, close the relative delivery cock until the pump starts
running smoothly again. This situation can occur when system pressure drops deviate significantly from the
pump available pressure.

10.1.1 Checking the refrigerant charge

- After a few hours of unit operation check that the sight glass moisture indicator has a green coloured core. if the
core is yellow, moisture is present in the circuit. In such a situation the circuit must be dehydrated by a qualified
technician.

- Check the sight glass for air bubbles. A constant passage of bubbles through the sight glass could indicate that
the refrigerant must be replenished. Occasional bubbles are considered normal.

- Check that refrigerant liquid superheating is between 5 and 7 °C; to do this:

1) measure the temperature using a contact thermometer placed on the compressor suction pipeline;
2) read the temperature, equivalent to the pressure read on the pressure gauge connected to the compressor
suction side (saturation temperature corresponding to suction pressure); for units charged with R407C
refrigerant, refer to the D.P. (Dew Point) pressure gauge scale.
The difference between the temperatures measured in this manner is equivalent to the superheating value.

- Check that refrigerant subcooling is between 5 and 7 °C; to do this:

1) measure the temperature using a contact thermometer placed on the compressor discharge pipeline;
2) read the temperature, equivalent to the pressure read on the pressure gauge connected to the liquid
connection at the condenser outlet (saturation temperature corresponding to condenser delivery pressure);
for units charged with R407C refrigerant, refer to the B.P. (Bubble Point) pressure gauge scale.
The difference between the temperature values measured in this manner is equivalent to the subcooling
value.

1 1 . CALIBRATION OF CONTROL EQUIPMENT

11.1 INTRODUCTION

All the control equipment is factory calibrated before the machine is shipped. Control equipment and safety
devices should nonetheless be checked after a reasonable period of operation. Calibration values are given in
Tables 3 and 4.

All service operations on the control equipment must be carried out by


QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY; incorrect calibration values can cause
serious damage to the unit and personal injury.

12. MAINTENANCE AND PERIODIC CHECKS
12. 1 WARNINGS

All operations described in this chapter MUST BE PERFORMED


EXCLUSIVELY BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

Make sure that the unit has been disconnected from the power supply
before carrying out any work or accessing internal parts.

The compressor head and discharge pipeline can reach high temperatures.
Always exert caution when working in the vicinity of the compressor.

Adopt the maximum caution when working in the vicinity of the finned
coils because of the sharp edges of the aluminium fins.

After performing maintenance work always refit the outer panels and
secure them with the screws.

12.2 INTRODUCTION

Carry out the following periodic checks to ensure the unit is operating correctly:

CHECK PERIOD
Check that safety and control devices work correctly as previously described monthly
Check that all the terminals within the electric panel and compressor are tight The monthly
sliding terminals of the contactors should be periodically cleaned: if any damage is
found, replace the contactors
Check the sight glass to verify the refrigerant charge. monthly
Check that there is no oil leakage from the compressor monthly
Check that there is no water leakage in the hydraulic system monthly
If the unit is to be stopped for a long period the hydraulic circuit, including all pipes and seasonal
heat exchangers, should be drained. This is compulsory if the ambient temperature is operation
expected to fall below the freezing point of the liquid employed.
Check process water levels monthly
Check that the flow switch is operating correctly. monthly
Check that the crankcase heater is operating correctly and there is a power supply. monthly
Clean metallic filters on water piping monthly
Clean the finned coil or the filter coils, if present, by means of compressed air, which monthly
should be directed in the opposite direction to the normal direction of air flow. If the
coil is completely clogged clean with a jet of water.
Execute a defrost test (heat pump units only) monthly
Check the condition, anchorage, and balancing of fans every 4 months
Check the colour of the sight glass core (green = no moisture, yellow = moisture every 4 months
present): if it is yellow change the refrigerant filter
Check that the noise level has not increased. every 4 months

Blue Box - 93
12.3 REPAIRING THE REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT

If repairs have been made to the refrigerant circuit, perform the following steps:

- leak test;
- vacuum and dehydration of refrigerant circuit;
- refrigerant charge.

If the circuit is to be emptied, use the appropriate equipment to collect


the refrigerant.

12.3.1 Leak test

Charge the refrigerant circuit to a pressure of 15 bar with dry nitrogen gas by means of a cylinder fitted with a
pressure reducer. Check the circuit for leaks with a leak detector. The formation of bubbles or foam indicates the
presence of leaks.
If leaks are found during the test, empty the refrigerant circuit and then repair the point of leakage by welding
with appropriate alloys.

Do not use oxygen instead of nitrogen: explosion hazard.

12.3.2 High vacuum and dehydration of the refrigerant circuit

To generate a high vacuum in the refrigerant circuit use a high vacuum pump able to reach 0.1 mbar of absolute
pressure with a flow rate of 10 m3/h. With this type of pump, a single vacuum cycle is normally sufficient to reach
an absolute pressure of 0.1 mbar.
If this type of pump is not available, or in the event that the circuit has been left open for a long period of time,
you are strongly advised to use the triple evacuation method. This procedure is also prescribed in the event of
moisture in the refrigerant circuit.

Connect the vacuum pump to the charge connector.


Proceed as follows:

- Evacuate the circuit to a pressure of at least 35 mbar absolute. Charge the circuit with nitrogen to a relative
pressure of approx. 1 bar.

- Repeat the operation described above.

- Repeat the operation described above for the third time in order to reach the highest degree of vacuum possible.

This procedure should guarantee the elimination of up to 99% of contaminants.

Blue Box - 94
12.3.3 Refrigerant charge

- Connect the refrigerant gas cylinder to the male 1/4 SAE charge connector on the liquid line and allow a small
amount of gas to escape in order to purge the connection hose of air.

- The circuit must be charged exclusively with liquid; therefore, if the cylinder is not equipped with a dip pipe it
must be turned upside-down.

Units operating with R407C must be charged exclusively with liquid


refrigerant by way of the charge connection on the liquid line.

A unit that was originally factory charged with R22 cannot be charged
with R407C (and vice versa) without major modifications. Consult Bluebox
if necessary.

12.4 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS

Laws governing the use of substances detrimental to the ozone layer prohibit the dispersal of refrigerant gases in
the environment, obliging users to recover refrigerants at the end of their useful life and consign them to the
dealer or to specific collection centres.
Refrigerants R22 and R407C are mentioned among substances subject to special monitoring regimes established
by law, and as such they are subject to the prescriptions indicated above.

Use special care during maintenance work in order to limit the risk of
refrigerant leakage as far as possible.

Blue Box - 95
13. DECOMMISSIONING THE UNIT
When the unit has reached the end of its useful life and must therefore be removed and replaced, adhere to the
following rules:

- the refrigerant must be recovered by a qualified technician and sent to an authorised collection centre;
- also the compressor lubrication oil must be recovered and sent to a collection centre;
- the structure and components, if unusable, must be stripped down and separated according to the material
type; this is particularly important for copper and aluminium, which are fairly abundant on the machine.

This procedure is designed to assist the work of collection, disposal, and recovery specialists and to reduce the
associated environmental impact.
