WARNING
Risk of refrigerant system rupture or explosion from overpressurization. Can cause equipment damage, injury and death.
A pressure relief valve is required for compliance with the EU Pressure Equipment Directive and may be required for compliance with local codes. If a discharge pressure relief device is not provided with the condenser unit, the system installer must install one in the high side of the refrigerant circuit and rated for a maximum of:
• 675psig (46.5bar) for water/glycol-cooled units
• 700psig (48.3bar) for air-cooled units
A shutoff valve must not be installed between the compressor and the field-installed relief valve.
One or more additional pressure relief valves are required downstream of any and all field-installed isolation. Do not isolate any refrigerant circuits from overpressurization protection.
WARNING
Risk of top-heavy unit falling over. Can cause equipment damage, personal injury and death. Read all of the following instructions before attempting to move, lift or remove packaging
from the Liebert CRV.
CAUTION
Risk of sharp edges, splinters and exposed fasteners. Can cause personal injury. Only properly trained and qualified personnel wearing appropriate safety headgear, gloves,
shoes and glasses should attempt to move, lift or remove packaging from the Liebert CRV or prepare the unit for installation.
NOTICE
Risk of overhead interference. Can cause unit and/or building damage. The unit may be too tall to fit through a doorway while on the skid. Measure the unit and
doorway heights and refer to the installation plans prior to moving the unit to verify clearances.
NOTICE

Important Safety Instructions
NOTICE
Risk of water leakage. Can cause severe property damage and loss of critical data center equipment.
This unit requires a water drain connection. It may require an external water supply to operate the humidifier. Improper installation, application and service practices can result in water leakage from the unit.
Do not locate the Liebert CRV directly above any equipment that could sustain water damage. Emerson recommends installing monitored leak detection equipment for the unit and supply lines.
NOTICE
Risk of frozen fluids. Can cause equipment damage and building damage. Freezing system fluids can rupture piping. Complete system drain-down cannot be ensured.
When the field piping or unit may be exposed to freezing temperatures, charge the system with the proper percentage of glycol and water for the coldest design ambient.
Automotive antifreeze is unacceptable and must NOT be used in any glycol fluid system.
NOTICE
Risk of corrosion. Can cause equipment damage. Read and follow individual unit installation instructions for precautions regarding fluid
system design, material selection and use of field-provided devices. Liebert systems contain iron and copper alloys that require appropriate corrosion protection.
Contact a local water consultant regarding water quality, corrosion and freeze protection requirements.
Water chemistry varies greatly by location, as do the required additives, called inhibitors, that reduce the corrosive effect of the fluids on the piping systems and components. The chemistry of the water used must be considered, because water from some sources may contain corrosive elements that reduce the effectiveness of the inhibited formulation. Sediment deposits prevent the formation of a protective oxide layer on the inside of the coolant system components and piping. The water/coolant fluid must be treated and circulating through the system continuously to prevent the buildup of sediment deposits and or growth of sulfate reducing bacteria.
Preferably, surface waters that are classified as soft and are low in chloride and sulfate ion content should be employed. Proper inhibitor maintenance must be performed in order to prevent corrosion of the system. Consult glycol manufacturer for testing and maintenance of inhibitors.
Commercial ethylene glycol (Union Carbide Ucartherm, Dow Chemical Dowtherm SR-1 and Texaco E.G. Heat Transfer Fluid 100), when pure, is generally less corrosive to the common metals of construction than water itself. It will, however, assume the corrosivity of the water from which it is prepared and may become increasingly corrosive with use if not properly inhibited.
NOTICE
Risk of no-flow condition. Can cause equipment damage. Do not leave the unit in a no-flow condition. Idle fluid allows the collection of sediment that
prevents the formation of a protective oxide layer on the inside of tubes. Keep unit switched On and system pump operating.
NOTE
The Liebert indoor cooling unit has a factory-installed high pressure safety switch in the high side refrigerant circuit. A pressure relief valve is provided with Liebert Lee-Temp Consult your local building code to determine if the Liebert VFD condensers will require field-provided pressure-relief devices. A fusible plug kit for Liebert VFD condensers is available for field installation.

5.0 PIPING

All fluid and refrigeration connections to the unit, with the exception of the condensate drain, are sweat copper. Factory-installed piping brackets must not be removed. Field-installed piping must be installed in accordance with local codes and must be properly assembled, supported, isolated and insulated. Avoid piping runs through noise-sensitive areas, such as office walls and conference rooms.
Refer to specific text and detailed diagrams in this manual for other unit-specific piping requirements.
All piping below the elevated floor must be arranged so that it offers the least resistance to airflow. Careful planning of the piping layout under the raised floor is required to prevent the airflow from being blocked. When installing piping on the subfloor, Emerson recommends installing the pipes in a horizontal plane rather than stacked one above the other. Whenever possible, the pipes should be run parallel to the airflow.

5.1 Fluid Connections

NOTICE
Risk of water leakage. Can cause severe property damage and loss of critical data center equipment.
This unit requires a water drain connection. It may require an external water supply to operate the humidifier. Improper installation, application and service practices can result in water leakage from the unit.
Do not locate the Liebert CRV directly above any equipment that could sustain water damage. Emerson recommends installing monitored leak detection equipment for the unit and supply lines.

Risk of frozen fluids. Can cause equipment damage and building damage. Freezing system fluids can rupture piping. Complete system drain-down cannot be ensured.
When the field piping or unit may be exposed to freezing temperatures, charge the system with the proper percentage of glycol and water for the coldest design ambient.
Automotive antifreeze is unacceptable and must NOT be used in any glycol fluid system.
Piping
NOTICE
Risk of corrosion. Can cause equipment damage. Read and follow individual unit installation instructions for precautions regarding fluid
system design, material selection and use of field-provided devices. Liebert systems contain iron and copper alloys that require appropriate corrosion protection.
Contact a local water consultant regarding water quality, corrosion and freeze protection requirements.
Water chemistry varies greatly by location, as do the required additives, called inhibitors, that reduce the corrosive effect of the fluids on the piping systems and components. The chemistry of the water used must be considered, because water from some sources may contain corrosive elements that reduce the effectiveness of the inhibited formulation. Sediment deposits prevent the formation of a protective oxide layer on the inside of the coolant system components and piping. The water/coolant fluid must be treated and circulating through the system continuously to prevent the build up of sediment deposits and or growth of sulfate reducing bacteria.
Preferably, surface waters that are classified as soft and are low in chloride and sulfate ion content should be employed. Proper inhibitor maintenance must be performed in order to prevent corrosion of the system. Consult glycol manufacturer for testing and maintenance of inhibitors.
Commercial ethylene glycol (Union Carbide Ucartherm, Dow Chemical Dowtherm SR-1 and Texaco E.G. Heat Transfer Fluid 100), when pure, is generally less corrosive to the common metals of construction than water itself. It will, however, assume the corrosivity of the water from which it is prepared and may become increasingly corrosive with use if not properly inhibited.

NOTICE
Risk of no-flow condition. Can cause equipment damage. Do not leave the unit in a no-flow condition. Idle fluid allows the collection of sediment that prevents the formation of a protective oxide
layer on the inside of tubes. Keep unit switched ON and system pump operating.

Piping
Leak Checking of Unit and Field Piping
Liebert unit fluid systems are factory-checked for leaks and may be shipped with a nitrogen holding charge. Liebert unit fluid circuits should be checked for leaks at installation as described below.
NOTE
During leak checking of field-installed piping, Emerson recommends that the unit be isolated using field-installed shutoff valves. When the Liebert units are included in a leak test, use of fluid for pressure testing is recommended. When pressurized gas is used for leak testing the Liebert unit, the maximum recommended pressure is 30 psig (2 bars) and tightness of the unit should be verified by pressure decay over time, (<2 psig/hour [0.3 bars/hour]) or sensing a tracer gas with suitable instrumentation. Dry seals in fluid valves and pumps may not hold a high gas pressure.

WARNING
Risk of explosive discharge from high-pressure refrigerant. Can cause injury or death. This unit contains fluids and/or gases under high pressure. Relieve pressure before working with piping.
WARNING
Risk of refrigerant system rupture or explosion from overpressurization. Can cause equipment damage, injury and death.
A pressure relief valve is required for compliance with the EU Pressure Equipment Directive and may be required for compliance with local codes. If a discharge pressure relief device is not provided with the condenser unit, the system installer must install one in the high side of the refrigerant circuit and rated for a maximum of:
• 675psig (46.5bar) for water/glycol-cooled units
• 700psig (48.3bar) for air-cooled units A shutoff valve must not be installed between the compressor and the field-installed relief
valve. One or more additional pressure relief valves are required downstream of any and all
field-installed isolation. Do not isolate any refrigerant circuits from overpressurization protection.
Refrigerant Connections
NOTICE
Risk of oil contamination with water. Can cause equipment damage. The piping must not be open to the atmosphere for extended periods because the Liebert CRV
requires POE (polyol ester) oil. POE oil absorbs water at a much faster rate when exposed to air than previously used oils. Because water is the enemy of a reliable refrigeration system, extreme care must be used when opening systems during installation or service. If water is absorbed into the POE oil, it will not be easily removed and will not be removed through the normal evacuation process. If the oil is too wet, it may require an oil change. POE oils also have a property that makes them act as a solvent in a refrigeration system. Maintaining system cleanliness is extremely important because the oil will tend to bring any foreign matter back to the compressor.
The Liebert CRV can be connected to a condenser through either the top or bottom of the unit. The unit is piped for connections at the top of the unit as shown in Figure 14, with provision for connection through the bottom of the unit.
Connecting through the bottom of the unit requires cutting the liquid and suction lines as shown in Figure 15. Cutting these lines disconnects the top connections from the rest of the refrigeration system.
Air-cooled units are shipped with a holding charge of nitrogen.

6.1 Piping Guidelines—Air-Cooled Units

If using bottom connections, cut the pipes just below the black pipe clamps
• Indoor unit ships with a nitrogen holding charge; do not vent the evaporator until all refrigerant piping is in place, ready for connection to the unit and condenser
• Use copper piping with high temperature brazed joints
• Isolate piping from building using vibration-isolating supports
• Refer to Tables 7 through 10 for piping sizes
• Refer to condenser installation manual for charging information
• Install traps on hot gas (discharge) lines at the base of vertical risers and every 15 feet (4.6m) of vertical rise.
• See Table 6 for the allowable elevation difference between the condenser and the Liebert CRV.
• Consult factory if piping run exceeds 300 feet (91m) equivalent length
• Keep piping clean and dry, especially on units with R-410A refrigerant
• Avoid piping runs through noise-sensitive areas
• Do not run piping directly in front of airstream of any air conditioner
• Refrigerant oil – do not mix oil types
Refer to ASHRAE Refrigeration Handbook for general, good-practice refrigeration piping.

1. Piping must be Type ACR copper tubing and sized per Tables 7, 8, 9 and 10.
NOTE
All field-installed piping must comply with applicable national, state and local codes.
Use the shortest possible refrigeration pipelines to minimize the total charge of refrigerant and the number of pressure drops.
2. Minimize the number of bends and make the bends the largest radius practical to prevent constricting refrigerant flow.
3. Insulate the piping as specified in Table 5. If the pipes are installed next to electrical cables, they must be isolated from the building using vibration-isolating supports to avoid damage to cable insulation.
4. There must be at least one inch (25mm) separation between the gas and liquid pipelines. If this is not possible, insulate both lines.
5. Support both horizontal and vertical pipes with vibration-damping clamps, which include rubber gaskets. Place these clamps every 5 to 7 ft. (1.5 to 2m).
