Unit Location
Units are designed for outdoor application and may be mounted on a roof or concrete slab
(ground level installation). Install roof mounted units on steel channels or an I-beam frame to
support the unit above the roof. Use of vibration pads or isolators is recommended. The roof
must be strong enough to support the weight of the unit. For ground level installation, mount
units on a one-piece concrete slab with footings extending below the frost line. Be certain
concrete slabs are installed level and are properly supported to prevent settling. Locate the
unit far enough away from any wall or other obstruction to provide sufficient clearance for air
entrance. Do not attach more than two-feet of ductwork to the fan outlet. Avoid air
recirculation conditions that may be caused by sight screening, walls, etc. and keep unit fan
discharge away from any building air intakes. Do not install unit where exhaust or ventilation
equipment will affect entering air temperature or foul coils.
Holding Charge
The unit is shipped with a holding charge of dry nitrogen under nominal pressure.

Install units away from occupied spaces, utility areas, corridors and auxiliary spaces to
reduce the transmission of sound and vibration to occupied spaces. The fluid piping should
be flexible enough to prevent the transmission of noise and vibration from the unit into the
building. If the fluid lines are to be suspended from the structure of the building, use
isolation hangers to prevent the transmission of vibration. Where piping passes through a
wall, pack fiberglass and sealing compound around the lines to minimize vibration and
retain flexibility. The unit must be secured in its final location. Holes are provided in the
base runner for this purpose
Vertical airflow type units should be located no closer than the width of the unit from a wall
or other obstruction. It two or more units are to be positioned in the same area, a similar
distance should be maintained between adjacent units. Sufficient free area should be left
around and below unit to avoid air restriction to coil.
Walls or Obstructions
Locate the unit to ensure that air can
circulate freely and not be recirculated. For
proper air flow and access, all sides of the
unit must be at least the distance shown away
from any wall or obstruction. Increase this
distance whenever possible. Be sure enough
room is left for maintenance through access
doors and panels. Overhead obstructions are
not permitted. When enclosed by three walls
the unit must be installed as indicated for
units in a pit.

General
1. Structure supporting unit must be designed to support both the unit and the fluid.
Table 1 provides weight of fluid per gallon. Provide suitable flashing of the roof, if this
is a roof installation. For ground level mounting, a concrete pad is recommended.
Mounting holes permit the units to be bolted down to withstand wind pressures.
Provide adequate clearance for unobstructed air flow to coils.
2. Level mounting is necessary to ensure proper fluid distribution through the coil as well
3. Water piping must comply with local codes. Correct pipe sizing will help reduce
pumping power and operating costs.
4. In case of doubt, consult the manufacturer for the dry cooler fluid pressure drop at the
specific conditions on your job.
5. Provide sufficient valves and unions to permit easy access to parts subject to wear and
possible repair or replacement.
6. After fluid piping is completed, all joints should be leak tested.
7. Where city water make-up is required, follow local codes, making certain that
disconnecting provisions are provided.
8. Select wire in accordance with nameplate data and local codes.
Piping Installation
The piping system should provide maximum leak prevention. Weld or sweat joints should
be used where possible. The fact that glycol solutions or other heat transfer fluids will leak
where water will not, must be taken into account.
The glycol system should not employ an automatic fill with a pressure-reducing valve. This
is because a slight leak would lead to dilution of the mixture and possible freeze potential.
Any refill should be controlled so as to maintain the proper glycol-to-water ratio.
Table 2 shows pressure drops for various pipe sizes at flow rates commonly used with a
typical dry cooler. These pipe sizes are not necessarily always correct for the run from the
condenser to the dry cooler. Proper pipe size will depend on available pump head. This can
be determined by subtracting from the total available pump head at design flow, the
condenser pressure drop and the dry cooler pressure drop. Allow some safety factor for last
minute pipe fittings added to the system and for eventual fouling of the system.
a) Glycol piping requires no insulation except when fluid temperature will be below
ambient dewpoint temperatures.
b) Vents are required at all high points in the piping to bleed air when filling the system.
If fluid coolers are at high points, vent valves should be installed at each fluid cooler.
c) It is recommended that gate valves be installed on both sides of the pump to prevent
loss of fluid in the event the pump should require repair or replacement. Shut-off
valves are also recommended at water cooled condensers in case the condensing unit is
to be moved or requires maintenance involving the coolant system.
NOTE: Isolation valves, vents, drains and other piping specialties are not shown, but are
required for a fully operational system.
8 Direct Drive Fluid Coolers IOM AFSD-1
Glycol Charge
The amount of ethylene glycol required depends upon the following:
• The holding volume of the system that includes the holding capacity of the heat source,
the interconnecting piping and the dry cooler.
• Percentage of glycol required by volume to provide protection at the design minimum
operating temperature.
Table 3, Percentage of Glycol to be Added by Percent Volume
Freeze Point °°°°F (°°°°C)
Percent Propylene Glycol
Percent Ethylene Glycol
Use as a guide only. Proper precautions need to be taken to prevent freeze damage during low ambient. Consult
glycol vendor recommendations for specific freeze protection for your location.
Regardless of the strength of the mixture, you MUST premix the glycol and water prior to
adding it to the system. The chemical reaction between the two will release oxygen, which
is extremely undesirable in a close-loop system.
CAUTION
For dry coolers operating without a glycol mixture, adequate fluid freeze protection of
some type is necessary during ambient air temperatures below 32°F.
Glycol Sludge Prevention
Glycol systems may be subject to sludge formation in coils, due to one or more of the
following causes:
• Reaction of the corrosion inhibitor with galvanized piping (zinc).
• Reaction of the glycol with chromate type water additives.
• Reaction of the glycol with pipe dope, cutting oils, solder flux, and other system dirt.
Glycol manufacturers offer a specially inhibited glycol (formulated for snow melting
systems) that does not react with zinc. This glycol is also suitable for heat transfer systems.
Glycol manufacturers also provide inhibitor check services on a regular basis.
Consequently, good glycol system design requires the following precautions:
• No galvanized piping is to be used.
• System piping must be thoroughly cleaned and flushed with a heated trisodiurn
phosphate solution before filling with the water/glycol mixture.
• Chromate inhibitor treatment must not be used.
• The glycol manufacturer should provide inhibitor check service and supply additional
inhibitor as required.
Fluid Circulating Pump
Mechanical seal type pumps must be used for glycol systems. Gland type pumps would
cause glycol waste and, if used with a pressure reducing valve, will lead to dilution of the
glycol mixture and eventual freeze-up.
IOM AFSD-1 Direct Drive Fluid Coolers 9
Pumps are selected for piping friction loss plus fluid pressure drop through the dry cooler
coil, plus pressure drop through the heat source. No allowance for vertical lift is made
since in a closed system a counterhead acts on the pump suction.
With glycol solutions the pump performance curve will drift to the right from its design
point, due to differences in circuit design, control valve application, pressure drop
calculations, etc. The pump should be selected high on the curve so as to provide for the
"drift'. The pump curve should be "flat" so that the pump will compensate for the inability
to exactly predict the final operating system flow condition and to provide sufficient flow
for satisfactory heat transfer and maximum protection against freezing at the far end of the
circuit. The pump motor should have sufficient power for operating over the entire pump
curve to prevent motor overload at reduced voltages. Paralleled pumps can also be used for
good power economy and continuous and automatic standby operation. Properly applied
parallel pumps will guard against system breakdown caused by a simple pump failure.
Certain older systems have non-operating standby pumps of equal capacity to the operating
unit. We recommend parallel pumps in continuous operation because they provide
practically the same type of standby, in addition to being completely automatic, at lower
initial and operating cost.

Electrical Data
Electrical Wiring
The electrical installation should be in accordance with National Electrical Code, local
codes and regulations. Wiring diagrams shown are only basic and do not show fuses,
additional disconnect switches, etc., which must be provided in the field.
Units have a disconnect switch, mounted in the electrical box, with a through-the-door
handle.
All standard motors have internal inherent overload protectors. Therefore, contactors can
be used instead of starters requiring thermal protectors, eliminating the problem of
furnishing the proper heating elements.
All fluid coolers are furnished with either single-phase or three-phase fan motors which, are
identified by the unit data plate.
Electrical leads from each motor terminate at the unit junction box. Field connections must
be made from these leads in accordance with local, state and national codes.
Three-phase motors must be connected to three-phase power of voltage to agree with motor
and unit dataplate.
The motors are wired into a common junction box. The motors must be checked for proper
rotation. Be sure to check that motor voltage and control connection agree with electric
services furnished.

Start Up
Prestart
Check for correct dry cooler fan rotation. This can be done by quickly jogging the fan
contactor. Be sure that the fans run freely. The same check is recommended for pumps.
Filling and Purging the System
The system should be pressure tested before adding glycol. The system can be tested with
air or water, however if the ambient temperature is at or below freezing the use of air is
recommended. Test pressure should not exceed 60 psig.
Roof Mounted Fluid Cooler
To fill the system, pour the premixed water and glycol into the expansion tank. Fill the
system until the expansion tank is half full, then purge the air from all vents. Operate the
system for a minute, then purge all vents again, and add glycol as required. Repeat the
purging of vents after the first hour of operation and again after several hours of operation.
Ground Mounted Fluid Cooler
The fluid cooler may be lowest point in the system; consequently the premixed water and
glycol will have to be pumped into the system.
Temperature Control
General
Some method of controlling the fluid temperature is required.
The standard temperature control consists of fan contactors arranged for field-connection to
a field-supplied and mounted control system; in other words, no control. Setting and
adjusting these controls will depend on the type furnished.
McQuay can furnish an optional control system using Johnson Controls A419 temperature
controls. Installation and adjustment are explained in the following paragraphs.
Installation
If the fan cycle thermostat option is provided, the solid state sensors are shipped coiled in
the control panel to prevent damages during shipment and installation. Mounted the sensors
securely to the fluid cooler header and insulate. Mount sensors on the entering or leaving
fluid headers depending on site requirements. Route and secure sensor wiring for
protection from vibration and interference.
Setting
The control is a single-stage, electronic temperature control with an SPDT output relay. It
has the following features:
• lockable keypad for programming,
• LCD for temperature and status display,
• LED for output relay status
• heating and cooling modes with adjustable setpoint and differential
18 Direct Drive Fluid Coolers IOM AFSD-1
The electronic temperature control must be set for heating or cooling application by
placement of the mode jumper. Temperature setting is selected based on entering or leaving
fluid temperature control. Differential settings are selected to prevent excessive fan cycling
and fluid temperature swing.
Definitions
• Cut-in: The temperature at which the N.O. (Normally Open) SPDT (Single-Pole,
Double-Throw) output relay contact closes.
• Cut-out: The temperature at which the N.O. SPDT output relay contact opens.
Control Functions
The A419 control allows the user to set a variety of functions using the keypad and
jumpers. These functions are described below. For instructions on setting function
parameters, see the Adjustments section.
Keypad Programmable Functions
Setpoint (SP) establishes the temperature at which the equipment is switched on or off,
depending on the user selected mode of operation. Setpoint range is -30 to 212°F (-34 to
100°C). See the Cooling/Heating and Setpoint Modes section on page 21.
If Setpoint mode is set to Cut-in, the setpoint is the temperature at which the control closes
the N.O. contacts. If Setpoint mode is set to Cut-out, the setpoint is the temperature at
which the N.O. contacts open. Refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9.
Differential (dIF) establishes the difference in temperature between Cut-in and Cut-out.
The differential is set relative to Setpoint and may be set from 1 to 30F° or C. Refer to
Figure 8 and Figure 9.
Anti-Short Cycle Delay (ASd) establishes the minimum time that the fan remains off
before restarting again. The anti-short cycle delay is activated when the A419 control has
cycled the fan off. The delay does not allow the fan to be restarted until the programmed
amount of time has elapsed. When the delay is activated, the LCD alternately flashes the
sensor temperature and ASd. The anti-short cycle delay may be programmed for 0 to 12
minutes in 1-minute increments.
For example, if the anti-short cycle delay is programmed for 7 minutes, the control will not
restart the fan until 7 minutes after the equipment was turned off, regardless of the
temperature. During the 7-minute period, if the temperature reaches the cut-in setpoint, the
display alternates between the sensor temperature and ASd to indicate that the on cycle is
being delayed. After the 7-minute delay has elapsed, the fan is turned on, and ASd stops
flashing.
Note: A power interruption to the control will activate the anti-short cycle delay.
Figure 6, Anti-short Cycle Delay
IOM AFSD-1 Direct Drive Fluid Coolers 19
Sensor Failure Operation (SF): establishes how the A419 control operates the fan in the
event of a sensor or sensor wiring failure. The user may select either to run the equipment
continuously or to shut it down. When the control detects a sensor circuit failure, the LCD
flashes SF alternately with OP if the sensor circuit is open, or SH if the sensor circuit is
shorted. Before indicating a failure, the control implements a 1-minute delay, which allows
verification of failure condition and avoids nuisance failure indications.
Temperature Offset (OFS): establishes the temperature setpoint shift (F° or C°) applied
when the binary input (BIN) and common (COM) terminals are connected together. The
Temperature Offset may be set from 0 to 50F° or C°. See the Offset Function section on
page 20.
Temperature Units: establishes the units of temperature (Fahrenheit or Celsius) displayed
on the LCD.
Functions Set by Jumper Position
For instructions on positioning jumpers, see Positioning the Jumpers onpage 22 in the
Adjustments section. Refer to Figure 11 for jumper locations.
Heating/Cooling: Removing or installing the upper jumper at P4 establishes whether the
control operates in the Heating or Cooling mode.
Setpoint Mode: Removing or installing the lower jumper at P4 establishes whether
Setpoint is the Cut-in temperature or Cut-out temperature.
Keypad Lock: Removing or installing the jumper at P5 establishes whether the keypad is
locked or unlocked. Locking the keypad deters accidental or unauthorized changes to all of
the function parameters.
Temperature Offset Function
The Temperature Offset function shifts Heating setpoint lower and Cooling setpoint higher
by the value
applications.
The Temperature Offset is activated by closing a circuit between BIN and COM. (See
Figures 7, 8, or 9.) The BIN and COM terminals may be connected to a user-supplied
external switching device, such as a time clock, that has a set of SPST contacts.
This option enables the control to alternate between two temperature setpoints based on the
position of the binary input switch. The number of degrees added to, or subtracted from,
Setpoint is established in the Temperature Offset function (OFS) using the keypad, as
described in Setting Other Functions on page 25.
Table 12 shows an example of the effect of the Temperature Offset function when
active.

Display
The front panel of the A419 control has a liquid crystal display (LCD) and an output relay
status LED (Light-Emitting Diode) indicator.
Liquid Crystal Display
During normal operation, the LCD displays the sensor temperature, a symbol indicating
units of temperature (°F or °C), and an icon indicating Heating ( ) or Cooling (∗) mode.
See Figure 7.
The temperature value ranges from -30 to 212°F (-34 to 100°C) in 1° increments. The LCD
also displays BIN if the Temperature Offset function is activated.
Figure 7, Front Panel and Display
During programming, the LCD
displays the control functions and
their programmed values. After
30 seconds of inactivity, the
display returns to the sensor
temperature. See the Adjustments
section for instructions on using
the keypad to change settings.
Output Relay Status Indicator LED
A green LED on the control’s front panel illuminates when the output relay is energized and
the N.O. contacts are closed.
Cooling/Heating and Setpoint Modes
Jumpers are used to place the A419 control in Cooling or Heating mode and set whether
Cut-in or Cut-out occurs at Setpoint. Four operating modes are possible: Cooling/Cut-in,
Cooling/Cut-out, Heating/Cut-in, and Heating/Cut-out.
Cooling Modes
When Cooling/Cut-in mode is selected, the differential is below Setpoint. The output relay
energizes and the LED indicator illuminates when the temperature rises to Setpoint. When
the temperature drops to Setpoint minus the differential value, the output relay and LED
indicator de-energize.
When Cooling/Cut-out mode is selected, the differential is above Setpoint. The output
relay energizes and LED indicator illuminates when the temperature rises to Setpoint plus
the differential value. When the temperature drops to Setpoint, the output relay and LED
indicator de-energize.

b) Use a reliable AC voltmeter to check the voltage between the COM and I20V or
240V terminals on line voltage models and the two 24V terminals on low-voltage
models. Refer to the wiring diagrams furnished with the unit.
c)
The voltage must be between 20 and 30 VAC for 24 volt applications, 102 and 132
VAC for 120 volt applications, 177 and 264 VAC for 208/240 volt applications
If the voltage reading is within the required range, proceed to Step 2.
If the voltage reading is not within the required range, check the power source and
input power wires for problems.
2. Check for proper sensor operation.
a. Disconnect all power sources to control.
b. Take a temperature reading at the sensor location, using an accurate thermometer.
c. Disconnect the sensor from the control.
d. Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance across the two sensor leads while the
sensor is at the temperature taken in step b.
e. Consult
to established temperature and resistance values.
f. If the measured values conform to the values in
g. If the sensor’s measured resistance value is substantially different from the
expected value for that temperature, check the sensor wiring. If sensor wiring is
OK, replace the sensor.

, proceed to Step 3.
Check the A419 for proper operation.
Note: Perform Troubleshooting Steps 1 and 2 before performing this step.
a. Disconnect the load from the output relay terminals.
b. Check that the Keypad Lock jumper is installed, so that the keypad is unlocked.
c. Reconnect the sensor leads and supply power to the control.
d. Replace the cover.
e. Check the control settings for proper values.

f.Press and hold the Menu button until Setpoint appears (occurs in about 2 seconds).
g. Use the Up and Down buttons to change the Setpoint temperature above and below
the current sensor temperature until the output relay energizes and de-energizes as
shown in
Table 15
.
Note: If the anti-short cycle delay has a time greater than 0 minutes, the relay will
not energize until the timed delay has elapsed.
h. If the output relay does not perform as indicated in
Table 15
, replace the A419
control.
i. If proper operation of the A419 control is verified, reconnect the load and consult
the equipment manufacturer’s instructions for troubleshooting the controlled
equipment.

Maintenance
Fluid coolers require a minimum of maintenance. Electrical connections should be checked
on an annual basis. Fan contactors should be inspected and replaced when there is evidence
of pitting or burning. Verify controls settings and operation at least on an annual basis.
Condenser fan motors have sealed ball bearings that do not require service. Replace
bearings when necessary.
The cooling fluid should be checked on a regular basis for proper inhibitors and glycol mix.
The unit coil will require periodic cleaning based on operation and atmosphere conditions.
Clean the unit using a brush or commercially available coil cleaners and water. Take care
not to deform the fin material. Straighten any bent fins using a fin tool.
Cleaning Instructions
Clean the finned surface at least every six months; more frequent cleaning may be required
if extreme conditions cause clogging or fouling of air passages through the finned surface.
Use Calgon Corporation's CalClean 41352 (or equal). Apply CalClean liberally to entering
air and leaving air surfaces of the finned area according to label directions and rinse
thoroughly to remove all cleaners.
CAUTION
Never clean this unit with an acid based cleaner.
