See chapter 1.1 "Installation safety considerations".

2.2.2 - Siting the unit

Always refer to the chapter "Dimensions and clearances" to


confirm that there is adequate space for all connections and
service operations. For the centre of gravity coordinates, the
position of the unit mounting holes, and the weight distribu-
tion points, refer to the certified dimensional drawing supplied
with the unit.

Typical applications of these units are in refrigeration


systems, and they do not require earthquake resistance.
Earthquake resistance has not been verified.

The power supply must conform to the specification on the 100 x max. deviation from average voltage
chiller nameplate. The supply voltage must be within the range Average voltage
specified in the electrical data table. For connections refer to
the wiring diagrams. Example:
On a 400 V - 3 ph - 50 Hz supply, the individual phase voltages
WARNING: Operation of the chiller with an improper supply were measured to be:
voltage or excessive phase imbalance constitutes abuse which
will invalidate the Carrier warranty. If the phase imbalance AB = 406 V ; BC = 399; AC = 394 V
exceeds 2% for voltage, or 10% for current, contact your
local electricity supply at once and ensure that the chiller is Average voltage = (406 + 399 + 394)/3 = 1199/3
not switched on until corrective measures have been taken. = 399.7 say 400 V

Calculate the maximum deviation from the 400 V average:


(AB) = 406 - 400 = 6
(BC) = 400 - 399 = 1
(CA) = 400 - 394 = 6
Motor

The maximum deviation from the average is 6 V. The greatest


percentage deviation is:

100 x 6/400 = 1.5 %

This is less than the permissible 2% and is therefore acceptable.

unit selection using the Carrier electronic catalog.
** For operation between 4°C and -15°C, the unit must be equipped with option 5
or 6, and the use of anti-freeze is required.
† For an application, requiring operation up to +15°C leaving water temperature,
contact Carrier for the selection of the unit.
‡ Depends on the maximum condenser flow rate.
Maximum outside temperature: For transport and storage of the 30HZ/HZV 2
units the minimum and maximum allowable temperatures are –20°C and

10. Multiply this ratio by 1.5 to find the equivalent pressure

6.6.4 - Discharge pipe sizing


The discharge piping must be sized to achieve reasonable
pressure drops: a variation of 1.5 K of the saturated tempera-
ture is normally accepted (approx. 60 kPa variation for a
condensing temperature of 50°C).

For most applications the refrigerant gas velocity is sufficient


to entrain the liquid refrigerant/oil mixture. Nevertheless,
Table 2 shows the minimum required cooling capacities for
different pipe diameters and different saturated discharge
temperatures.

This table is based on 8 K superheat, a saturated suction


temperature of 4°C and 8 K subcooling. Table 3 shows the
correction factors to be applied to the values from Table 2, if
the operating conditions are different from those previously
stated.

6.6.5 - Liquid line sizing


The 30HZV compressors are supplied with an oil that is fully
miscible with refrigerant R407C in the liquid phase. Conse-
quently low refrigerant velocities in the liquid lines are not a
problem.

The admissible pressure drops in the liquid lines depend mainly


on the subcooling level of the liquid refrigerant at the con-
denser outlet. Pressure drops corresponding to 1.5°C saturated
temperature must not be exceeded.

two additional sensors must be added on the common piping. 30HZ/HZV units use reciprocating, semi-hermetic compressors.
As standard, each compressor is equipped with:
All parameters, required for the master/slave function must be • a discharge valve
configured using the Service Configuration menu. All remote • a suction valve
controls of the master/slave assembly (start/stop, set point, • an oil crankcase heater with a safety device that shuts off
load shedding etc.) are controlled by the unit configured as the compressor in case of a fault

NOTE: Use only oils which have been approved for the
compressors. Never use oils which have been exposed to air.

This is designed and made of special materials, and permits
operation down to -15°C fluid-side. The evaporator shell has
double thermal insulation of polyurethane foam (2 x 19 mm).

Condensers (option 6)
Because the thermal heat rejection is less important, the
condensers are down-graded by one size.

The control boxes and compressor terminal boxes are designed


to provide protection in accordance with class IP44 CW.

8.3 - High- and low-pressure gauges (option 26)

The units are equipped with a high-pressure gauge and a low-


pressure gauge on each circuit.

8.4 - Compressor oil pressure safety device

Each compressor is equipped with a pressure sensor located on


the oil pump outlet.

The normal oil pressure for 06E compressors is 82 kPa to 124


kPa above the suction pressure.

8.5 - Condenser with CuNi tubes (option 33)

The condensers are manufactured with Copper-Nickel 90/10


tubes and plated CuNi 90/10 tube sheets.

tighten the outer bolts to the correct torque.
• Not less than one hour later insert and tighten the six
bolts in the centre of the head, using the torque values
given.
• After the cooler has been refilled with clean refrigerant,
use a soap and water solution or an electronic detector to
confirm that there are no leaks.
• Replace the evaporator insulation and temperature sensors.
