Introduction

General Description

McQuay Air-Cooled Global Water Chillers are complete, self-contained automatic refrigerating units. Every unit is completely assembled, factory wired, charged, and tested. Each unit consists of twin air-cooled condensers with integral subcooler sections, two tandem or triple scroll compressors, brazed-plate or replaceable tube, dual circuit shell-and-tube evaporator, and complete refrigerant piping. Liquid line components include manual liquid line shutoff valves, sight-glass/moisture indicators, solenoid valves, and thermal expansion valves. Other features include compressor crankcase heaters, an evaporator heater for chilled water freeze protection, limited pumpdown during “on” or “off” periods, automatic compressor lead-lag to alternate the compressor starting sequence, and sequenced starting of compressors.

The electrical control center includes all equipment protection and operating controls necessary for dependable automatic operation. Condenser fan motors are protected in all three phases and started by their own three-pole contactors.

Manuals

This manual covers the installation, maintenance and service for dual circuit, AGZ packaged scroll compressor chillers. Information on remote evaporator units is in IMM ACZ/AGZ-4. Operating information is contained in the operating manual OM AGZ-1.

Inspection

Check all items carefully against the bill of lading. Inspect all units for damage upon arrival. Report shipping damage and file a claim with the carrier. Check the unit nameplate before unloading, making certain it agrees with the power supply available. McQuay is not responsible for physical damage after the unit leaves the factory.

Note: Unit shipping and operating weights are available in the Physical Data tables beginning on page 31.

Restricted Air Flow General

The clearances required for design-life operation of AGZ air-cooled condensers are described in the previous section. Occasionally, these clearances cannot be maintained due to site restrictions such as units being too close together or a fence or wall restricting airflow, or both.

Fortunately, the McQuay AGZ chillers have several features that can mitigate the problems attributable to restricted airflow.

• The condenser section is shaped as shown

Figure 4. This allows inlet air for these coils to come in from either side. A vertical coil and its adjacent angled coil are manifolded together to serve one refrigerant circuit.

• The MicroTech II® control is proactive in response to “off-design conditions”. In

the case of single or compounded influences restricting airflow to the unit, the microprocessor will act to keep the compressor(s) running (possibly at reduced capacity) rather than allowing a shut-off on high discharge pressure.

• The MicroTech II® control can be programmed to sequence the compressors in the

most advantageous way. For example, in the diagram shown below, it might be desirable to program circuit #1 to be the lag circuit (last circuit to reach full load) during periods of high ambient temperatures.

Figure 4, Coil and Fan Arrangement

Building

Circuit #1 Circuit #2

NOTE: Models AGZ 026 to 035 do not have an interior slanted coil.

The following sections discuss the most common situations of condenser air restriction and give capacity and power adjustment factors for each. Note that in unusually severe conditions, the MicroTech II® controller would adjust the unit operation to remain online until a less severe condition is reached.

Case 1, Building or Wall on One Side of One Unit

The existence of a screening wall or the wall of a building in close proximity to an air-cooled chiller is common in both rooftop and ground level applications. Hot air recirculation on the coils adjoining the wall will increase compressor discharge pressure, decreasing capacity and increasing power consumption. Only the compressor(s) connected to these coils will be affected. Circuits opposite the wall are unaffected.

When close to a wall, it is desirable to place chillers on the north or east side of them. It is also desirable to have prevailing winds blowing parallel to the unit’s long axis. The worst case is to have wind blowing hot discharge air into the wall.

Case 2, Two Units Side By Side

Two or more units sited side by side are common. If spaced closer than 12 feet (3.7 meters) or 8 feet (2.5meters) depending on size, it is necessary to adjust the performance of each unit; circuits adjoining each other are affected. NOTE: This case applies only to two units side by side. See Case 3 for three or more parallel units. If one of the two units also has a wall adjoining it, see Case 1. Add the two adjustment factors together and apply to the unit located between the wall and the other unit.

Mounting units end to end will not necessitate adjusting performance. Depending on the actual arrangement, sufficient space must be left between the units for access to the control panel door opening and/or evaporator tube removal. See “Clearance” section of this guide for requirements for specific units.

Case 3, Three or More Units Side By Side

When three or more units are side by side, the outside chillers (1 and 3 in this case) are influenced by the middle unit only on their inside circuits. Their adjustment factors will be the same as Case 2. All inside units (only number 2 in this case) are influenced on both sides and must be adjusted by the factors shown below.

Case 4, Open Screening Walls

Decorative screening walls are often used to help conceal a unit either on grade or on a rooftop. These walls should be designed such that the combination of their open area and distance from the unit do not require performance adjustment. It is assumed that the wall height is equal to or less than the unit height when mounted on its base support. This is usually satisfactory for concealment. If the wall height is greater than the unit height, see Case 5, Pit Installation.

The distance from the ends of the unit to the end walls should be sufficient for service, opening control panel doors, and pulling evaporator tubes, as applicable.

If each side wall is a different distance from the unit, the distances can be averaged providing either wall is not less than 8 feet (2.4 meters) from the unit. For example, do not average 4 feet and 20 feet to equal 12 feet.

Case 5, Pit/Solid Wall Installation

Pit installations can cause operating problems and great care should be exercised if they are to be used on an installation. Recirculation and restriction can both occur. A solid wall surrounding a unit is substantially the same as a pit and the data presented here should be used.

Steel grating is sometimes used to cover a pit to prevent accidental falls or trips into the pit. The grating material and installation design must be strong enough to prevent such accidents, yet provide abundant open area or serious recirculation problems will occur. Have any pit installation reviewed by McQuay application engineers prior to installation to make sure it has sufficient air-flow characteristics. The installation design engineer must approve the work to avoid the risk of accident.

Sound Isolation

The low sound level of the AGZ chiller is suitable for most applications. When additional sound reduction is necessary, locate the unit away from sound sensitive areas. Avoid locations beneath windows or between structures where normal operating sounds may be objectionable. Reduce structurally transmitted sound by isolating water lines, electrical conduit and the unit itself. Use wall sleeves and rubber isolated piping hangers to reduce transmission of water or pump noise into occupied spaces. Use flexible electrical conduit to isolate sound transmission through electrical conduit. Spring isolators are effective in reducing the low amplitude sound generated by scroll compressors and for unit isolation in sound sensitive areas.

Vibration Isolators

Vibration isolators are recommended for all roof-mounted installations or wherever vibration transmission is a consideration.

Table 2 lists isolator loads for all unit sizes.

RP-4, Neoprene-in-Shear Dimensions

CP-2, Spring Isolator Dimensions

Figure 15 shows isolator locations. See Dimensional Data starting on page 41 for detailed mounting hole locations.

Isolators are also recommended for slab installations, primarily to keep the unit base from resting its entire length directly on the slab.

Isolator Installation

The unit should be initially installed on shims or blocks at the listed free height. When all piping, wiring, flushing, charging, etc. is completed, adjust the springs upward to load them and to provide clearance to remove the shims or blocks.

Installation of spring isolators requires flexible piping connections and at least three feet of conduit flex tie-ins. Piping and conduit must be supported independently of the unit.

Bolting: if the chiller base is to be bolted to the isolators, it is recommended that the short threaded studs usually found on isolators be replaced with eight-inch threaded rod that can extend through the holes on the top of the base and then be bolted. Washers will be required.

Ambient Air Temperature Limitations

Standard/High Ambient Panels

Models AGZ-B (26 to 130 tons, two circuit) have electrical data and subsequent field wiring requirements that are tailored to individual applications.

There are many installations where the expected summer ambient air temperatures will be at 105°F (40.1°C) or less, resulting in smaller unit electrical requirements compared to operation at 106°F (41.1) and above. In these lower temperature cases, there can be considerable installation cost savings by using smaller and more appropriate electrical service.

Therefore, the AGZ electrical data is divided into two classifications based on the design ambient temperature where the unit will operate. Standard Ambient unit electrical data (BS and BM models) is for operation in ambient temperatures of 105°F (40.1°C) or less. Units with the High Ambient designation (BH and BB models) are for use above 105°F (40.1°C) to 125°F (51.7°C).

The AGZ-B units for high ambient operation require the addition of the High Ambient Control Panel Option, which includes the addition of a small fan with a filter in the air intake to cool the control panel, and a unit nameplate that lists the larger electrical requirements.

All units with the optional VFD low ambient fan control automatically include the High Ambient Control Panel Option. Operation of the VFD generates a quantity of panel heat best removed by use of a control panel fan.

Water Flow Limitations, Constant Flow

The evaporator flow rates and pressure drops shown on page 25 are for full load design purposes. The maximum flow rate and pressure drop are based on a 6-degree temperature drop. Avoid higher flow rates with resulting lower temperature drops to prevent potential control problems resulting from very small control bands and limited start up/shut off temperature changes.

The minimum flow and pressure drop is based on a full load evaporator temperature drop of 16-degrees.

Evaporator flow rates below the minimum values can result in laminar flow causing freeze-up problems, scaling and poor control. Flow rates above the maximum values will result in unacceptable pressure drops and can cause excessive erosion, potentially leading to failure.

Water Flow Limitations, Variable Flow

The full load, minimum flow limitation for constant flow is not to be confused with the part load minimum flow rate that must be maintained for chillers operating in primary variable flow pumping systems. As chiller capacity drops, the flow rate for this pumping system will reduce proportionally. See the following table for the part load minimum flo w rates.

Other design practices for variable flow systems requiring a range of evaporator flow rates can be found below.

These minimum flow rates assume that flow will be reduced proportionally to the cooling load.

Variable Speed Pumping

Variable water flow involves changing the water flow through the evaporator as the load changes. McQuay chillers are designed for this duty provided that the rate of change in water flow is slow and the minimum and maximum flow rates for the vessel are not exceeded.

The recommended maximum change in water flow is 10 percent of the change per minute.

The water flow through the vessel must remain above the values listed on

Table 9. If

flow drops below the minimum allowable, large reductions in heat transfer can occur.

Drain Valves at Start-up

Model sizes AGZ 075 and larger have shell-and-tube evaporators. They are drained of water in the factory and shipped with evaporator drain plugs removed and stored in the control panel or with an open ball valve in the drain holes. The drain is located on the bottom of the vessel. Be sure to replace plugs or close the valves prior to filling the vessel with fluid.

Water Piping

Local authorities can supply the installer with the proper building and safety codes required for safe and proper installation.

Install piping with minimum bends and changes in elevation to minimize pressure drop. The following issues must be considered when designing and installing water piping:

1. Vibration eliminators to reduce vibration and noise transmission to the building.

2. Shutoff valves are required to isolate the unit from the piping during unit servicing.

3. Manual or automatic air vent valves at the high points of the system. Drains must

be installed at the lowest points in the system.

4. Adequate water pressure must be maintained (expansion tank or regulating valve).

5. Temperature and pressure indicators located at the unit are required to aid in unit

servicing.

6. A strainer or other means of removing foreign matter from the water before it enters

the pump must cavitation at the pump inlet (consult pump manufacturer for recommendations). The use of a strainer will prolong pump life and keep system performance up.

7. Flush the system water piping thoroughly before making connections to the unit

evaporator. Be sure to install a strainer (40-mesh for models AGZ 010 through 070 and 20-mesh for AGZ 075 through 130) in the return water line before the inlet to the chiller. Design the water piping so the chilled water circulating pump discharges into the evaporator inlet.

8. The unit’s evaporator has a thermostat and heater to prevent freeze-up down to -

20°F (-29°C). The heating cable can be wired to a separate 115V supply circuit. As shipped from the factory, the heating cable is wired to the control circuit. All water piping to the unit must also be protected to prevent freezing.

be installed. Place the strainer far enough upstream to prevent

IMM AGZ-8 AGZ 026B through 130B 17

CAUTION

If separate disconnect is used for the 115V supply to the evaporator heating

cable, mark the disconnect clearly to ensure the disconnect is not accidentally

shut off during cold seasons causing a possible damaging evaporator freeze-up.

9. If the unit is used as a replacement chiller, flush the system thoroughly before unit

installation. Regular water analysis and chemical water treatment for the evaporator loop is recommended immediately at equipment start-up.

10. The total water volume in the system should be sufficient to prevent frequent “on-

off” cycling. Turnover rate should not be less than 4 minutes for normal variable cooling loads.

11. When glycol is added to the water system for freeze protection, the refrigerant

suction pressure will be lower, cooling performance less, and water side pressure drop greater. If the percentage of glycol is high, or if propylene is used instead of ethylene glycol, the added pressure drop and loss of performance could be substantial. When Glycol or Ice are selected as Unit Mode, the MicroTech II will automatically reset the available range for the Leaving Water Temperature, Freezestat and Evaporator Pressure settings.

12. Reset the freezestat setting to 6 degrees F (3.3 degrees C) below the leaving chilled

water setpoint temperature. See the section titled “Glycol Solutions” for additional information concerning glycol.

13. Perform a preliminary leak check before insulating the piping and filling the

system.

14. Piping insulation should include a vapor barrier to prevent condensation and

possible damage to the building structure.

Flow Switch

Mount a water flow switch in the leaving water line to shut down the unit when water flow is interrupted. A flow switch is an equipment protection control and should never be used to cycle a unit.

A “paddle” type flow switch is available from McQuay (part number 017503300). Certain flow rates are required to open the switch and are listed in Wire from switch terminals Y and R to the unit control panel terminals shown on the field wiring diagram (page

Installation should be as shown in

70). Figure 18. Connect the normally open contacts of

the flow switch in the unit control center at terminals 44 and 61. There is also a set of normally closed contacts on the switch that can be used for an indicator light or an alarm to indicate when a “no flow” condition exists. Freeze protect any flow switch that is installed outdoors. Manufacturer’s instructions included with the switch should be followed.

Table 10 on page 19.

NOTE: Differential pressure switches are not recommended for outdoor installation. They can freeze and not indicate a no-flow condition.

Water Connections

Bring water piping to the evaporator through the side between the vertical supports. Provide taps for the connection of pressure gauges and thermometers in the inlet and outlet lines. Check the inlet and outlet labels on the unit against the certified drawings supplied on the job and be sure the water piping is hooked up correctly. Contact the McQuay sales office if any discrepancies exist.

System Water Volume Considerations

All chilled water systems need adequate time to recognize a load change, respond to that load change and stabilize, without undesirable short cycling of the compressors or loss of control. In air conditioning systems, the potential for short cycling usually exists when the building load falls below the minimum chiller plant capacity or on close-coupled systems with very small water volumes.

Some of the things the designer should consider when looking at water volume are the minimum cooling load, the minimum chiller plant capacity during the low load period and the desired cycle time for the compressors.

Assuming that there are no sudden load changes and that the chiller plant has reasonable turndown, a rule of thumb of “gallons of water volume equal to two to three times the chilled water gpm flow rate” is often used.

A properly designed storage tank should be added if the system components do not provide sufficient water volume.

Variable Speed Pumping

Variable water flow involves reducing the water flow through the evaporator as the load decreases. McQuay chillers are designed for this duty provided that the rate of change in water flow is not greater than 10 percent of the change per minute.

The water flow through the vessel must remain above the values shown on

17. If flow drops below the minimum allowable, large reductions in heat transfer

page can occur.

Glycol Solutions

The use of a glycol/water mixture in the evaporator to prevent freezing will reduce system capacity and efficiency, as well as increase pressure drop. The system capacity, required glycol solution flow rate, and pressure drop with glycol may be calculated using the following formulas and tables.

Test coolant with a clean, accurate glycol solution hydrometer (similar to that found in service stations) to determine the freezing point. Obtain percent glycol from the freezing point table below. It is recommended that a minimum of 25% solution by weight be used for protection against corrosion or that additional compatible inhibitors be added. Concentrations above 35 percent do not provide any additional burst protection and should be carefully considered before using.

CAUTION

Do not use an automotive grade antifreeze. Industrial grade glycols must be

used. Automotive antifreeze contains inhibitors which will cause plating on the

copper tubes within the chiller evaporator. The type and handling of glycol used

must be consistent with local codes.

Pumpdown

The pumpdown capacity of AGZ units is given in the Physical Data Tables. Care should be exercised to include all equipment and lines when calculating the system charge relative to pumpdown capacity on remote evaporator units. The AGZ remote evaporators have an insignificant operating charge.

Altitude Correction Factors

Performance tables are based at sea level. Elevations other than sea level affect the performance of the unit. The decreased air density will reduce condenser capacity consequently reducing the unit's performance. For performance at elevations other than sea level, refer to

Evaporator Temperature Drop Factors

Performance tables are based on a 10-degree F (5-degree C) temperature drop through the evaporator. Adjustment factors for applications with temperature ranges from 6 to 16-degree F (3.3 to 8.9-degree C) are in

Temperature drops outside this 6 to 16-degree F (3.3 to 8.9-degree C) range can affect the control system's capability to maintain acceptable control and are not recommended.

The maximum water temperature that can be circulated through the evaporator in a non-operating mode is 100°F (37.8°C).

Fouling Factor

Performance tables are based on water with a fouling factor of

As fouling is increased, performance decreases. For performance at other than 0.0001 (0.0176) fouling factor, refer to

Table 15 and Table 16.

Foreign matter in the chilled water system will adversely affect the heat transfer capability of the evaporator and could increase the pressure drop and reduce the water flow. Maintain proper water treatment to provide optimum unit operation.

Evaporator Freeze Protection

Evaporator freeze-up can be a concern in the application of air-cooled water chillers. To protect against freeze-up, insulation and an electric heater cable are furnished with the unit. This protects the evaporator down to -20°F (-29°C) ambient air temperature. Although the evaporator is equipped with freeze protection, it does not protect water piping external to the unit or the evaporator itself if there is a power failure or heater cable burnout. Consider the following recommendations for additional protection.

1. If the unit will not be operated during the winter, drain evaporator and chilled water piping

and flush with glycol. Drain and vent connections are provided on the evaporator to ease draining.

2. Add a glycol solution to the chilled water system to provide freeze protection. Freeze

point should be approximately ten degrees below minimum design ambient temperature.

3. The addition of thermostatically controlled heat and insulation to exposed piping.

4. Continuous circulation of water through the chilled water piping and evaporator.

The evaporator heater cable is factory wired to the 115-volt circuit in the control box. This power should be supplied from a separate source, but it can be supplied from the control circuit. Operation of the heater cable is automatic through the ambient sensing thermostat that energizes the evaporator heater cable for protection against freeze-up. Unless the evaporator is drained in the winter, the disconnect switch to the evaporator heater must not be open.
