General Information
Unit Description
Before shipment, each unit is leak tested, dehydrated, charged with refrigerant and compressor oil, and run tested for proper control operation.
Each unit is equipped with manifolded scroll compressors. Each manifolded set of compressors is piped in parallel and utilizes a passive oil management system to maintain proper compressor oil level.
The condenser coils are aluminum fin, mechanically bonded to copper tubing. Copper-fin coils are optional. Louvered condenser grilles for coil protection are standard.
Direct-drive, vertical discharge condenser fans are provided with built-in thermal overload protection.
For “Ship with” items, refer to the Unit Component “Layout” and “Ship with” Locations illustration.
If low ambient operation is required, low ambient dampers are available as a field or factory installed option.
The evaporators used in each air-cooled cold generator are of brazed plate construction. Each evaporator is fully insu­lated. Entering and leaving temperatures of the chilled solu­tion are measured by sensors located on the evaporator.
A liquid line solenoid valve, filter drier, sight glass, thermo­static expansion valve, and service valves (liquid and dis­charge) are provided on each circuit.
Standard controls for these units is a microelectronics con­trol system that consists of a network of modules referred to collectively as Unit Control Modules (UCM). The acronym UCM is used extensively throughout this document when referring to the control system network.
These modules, through Proportional/Integral control algo­rithms, perform specific unit functions that governs unit op­eration in response to chilled water temperature leaving the evaporator. The stages of capacity control for these units is achieved by starting and stopping the compressors.
The modules are mounted in the control panel and are fac­tory wired to their respective internal components. They re­ceive and interpret information from other unit modules, sensors, remote panels, and customer binary contacts to satisfy the applicable request for cooling. Refer to the fol­lowing discussion for an explanation of each module func­tion.
Human Interface Module (HI - Standard) (1U65 = Local, 6U66 = Remote)
The Human Interface module enables the operator to adjust the operating parameters for the unit using it’s 16 key key­pad. The 2 line, 40 character LCD screen provides status information for the various unit functions as well as menus for the operator to set or modify the operating parameters.
Cold Generator Module (1U48) (CGM - Standard)
The Cold Generator Module (CGM) responds to cooling re­quests by energizing the proper unit components based on information received from other unit modules, sensors, re­mote panels, and customer supplied binary inputs. It ini­tiates unit operation based on that information.
Compressor Module (1U44) (MCM)
The Compressor module, upon receiving a request for me­chanical cooling, energizes the appropriate compressors and condenser fans. It monitors the compressor operation through feedback information it receives from various pro­tection devices. It also provides heat tape output control for heat exchanger protection.
Interprocessor Communications Board (1U55) (IPCB ­Optional - used with Optional Remote Human Interface)
The Interprocessor Communication Board expands communi­cations from the unit’s UCM network to a Remote Human Inter­face Panel. DIP switch settings on the IPCB module for this ap­plication should be; Switches 1 and 2 “Off”, Switch 3 “On”.
Trane Communications Interface Module (1U54) (TCI ­Optional - used with Trane ICS
TM
Systems)
The Trane Communication Interface module expands communications from the unit’s UCM network to a Trane Tracer 100™ or a Tracer Summit™ system and allows external setpoint adjustment and monitoring of status and diagnostics.
DIP Switch settings on the TCI module for these applica­tions should be: Switches 1, 2, and 3 are “Off”
Generic Building Automation System Module (1U51 = GBAS 0-5V, 1U98 = GBAS 0-10V) Optional - used with Non-Trane Building Control System)
The Generic Building Automation System (GBAS) module allows a non-Trane building control system to communicate with the unit and accepts external setpoints in form of ana­log inputs (0 - 5 DCV or 0 - 10 DCV depending on the mod­ule selected) and a binary Input for demand limit. Five (5) binary outputs are available on 0 - 5 DCV modules. One (1) binary output and four (4) analog outputs are available on the 0 - 10 DCV modules. Refer to the “Field Installed Con­trol Wiring” section for the control wiring to the GBAS mod­ule and the various desired setpoints with the correspond­ing DC voltage inputs.
Lontalk Communication Interface Module (1U54) (LCI Optional - used on units with Trane ICS
or 3rd
party Building Automation Systems)
The LonTalk Communication Interface module expands com­munications from the unit’s UCM network to a Trane Tracer
Summit
or a 3rd party building automation system, that uti­lizes LonTalk, and allows external setpoint and configuration adjustment and monitoring of status and diagnostics.
Current Sensing Module (1U90) (CSM - Optional)
Current transformers located around two (2) of the main power leads for each compressor monitors the running cur­rent during compressor operation. The information is sent to the CGM and can be accessed through the “Compressor Status” submenu displayed at the Human Interface Module.
Superheat & Subcooling Module (1U91) (SSM ­Optional)
Monitors the system operating superheat and subcooling through the use of pressure transducers, liquid line, and suction line temperature sensors. The information is sent to the SSM and can be accessed through the “Compressor Status” submenu displayed at the Human Interface Module.
Input Devices & System Functions
The descriptions of the following basic Input Devices used within the UCM network are to acquaint the operator with their function as they interface with the various modules. Refer to the unit’s electrical schematic for the specific mod­ule connections.

Lead/Lag (Standard)
When Lead-Lag is enabled, for each capacity add request, the CGM will begin sequencing the compressors “On” that have:
a. the least number of starts; or, b. the least run time (if number of starts are equal)
At each capacity subtract request, the CGM will begin se­quencing the compressors “Off” that have:
a. the most run time; or, b. the least number of starts (if more than one
compressor has the same run time)
If a compressor is locked out for any reason when a capac­ity add request occurs, the next available compressor which meets the specified criteria will be started.
If a compressor can not be turned “Off” due to the minimum “On Time”, the next compressor which meets the specified criteria will be turned “Off”.
On dual circuit units, as the first two capacity add requests are initiated, one compressor on each circuit will start be­fore any additional compressors on any circuit is started. When staging down from three compressor stages to two compressor stages, the CGM will turn the compressors “Off” on the circuit that has the most compressors operat­ing.
With Lead/Lag enabled, HGBP operation (if applicable) will be bypassed and the system will go directly into pumpdown when the last subtract command is initiated.
When the UCM is powered up (after a power loss), or any time the compressor’s start time and run time are equal, the lead compressor for single circuit units (20 through 30 Tons), will be the first “On” and the lag compressor will be the first “Off”. For dual circuit units (40 through 60 Tons), the “On” sequence will be A-C-B-D and the “Off” sequence will be D-B-C-A.
Loss of Charge/Flow (Refrigerant) Control
Is accomplished by Loss of Charge Cutout (LCC) switch(es), located on the suction line(s) near the scroll compressor(s). The LCC are connected to the SCM or MCM Low Pressure Cutout (LPC) binary input.
The LCC contacts are designed to open if the suction pres­sure approaches 7 ± 4 psig. If the LCC opens after a com­pressor has started, all compressors operating on that cir­cuit will be turned off immediately and will remain off for a minimum of three minutes.
The LCC contacts are designed to close when the suction pressure exceeds 22 ± 4 psig. If the LCC is open when a compressor is requested to start, none of the compressors on that circuit will be allowed to operate. They are locked out and a manual reset diagnostic is initiated. If the LCC opens four consecutive times, during the initial three min­utes of compressor operation on a circuit, the compressors
General Information
on that circuit will be locked out and a manual reset diag­nostic is initiated.
Evaporator Freeze Protection
Is accomplished by Freeze Protection Cutout (FPC) switch(es), located on the suction line(s) near the scroll compressor(s).
The FPC are connected to the SCM or MCM Low Pressure Cutout (LPC) binary input, in series with the LCC switch(es.) The FPC switch is used to prevent the refriger­ant from becoming cold enough to cause the chilled solu­tion in the Evaporator to freeze. This pressure switch is typi­cally set to trip at a higher refrigerant pressure, typically 20 to 45 PSIG depending on the selected leaving water setpoint range of the unit.
If the FPC opens after a compressor has started, all com­pressors operating on that circuit will be turned off immedi­ately and will remain off for a minimum of three minutes.
If the FPC is open when a compressor is requested to start, none of the compressors on that circuit will be allowed to operate. They are locked out and a manual reset diagnostic is initiated.
If the FPC opens four consecutive times, during the initial three minutes of compressor operation on a circuit, the compressors on that circuit will be locked out and a manual reset diagnostic is initiated.
Saturated Condenser Temperature Sensors (Standard)
Are analog input devices mounted inside a temperature well located on a condenser tube bend. They monitor the satu­rated refrigerant temperature inside the condenser coil and are connected to the compressor module (MCM). As the saturated refrigerant temperature varies due to operating conditions, the condenser fans are cycled “On” or “Off” as required to maintain acceptable operating pressures.
Head Pressure Control (Standard)
Is generally achieved by staging condenser fans on on if the Saturated Condensing Temperature (SCT) rises above the Saturated Condensing Temperature Control Band Up­per Limit (SCTUL) and staged off if the SCT falls below the Saturated Condensing Temperature Control Band Low Limit (SCTLL), in an effort to maintain the SCT within this fixed temperature range.
For 20 and 40 ton units, two outputs (A and C) per circuit are controlled. For 25, 30, 50 and 60 ton units, three out­puts (A, B and C) per circuit are controlled. Each output controls a condenser fan motor contactor. Output C will en­ergize on initial call for fan staging, and will remain ener­gized as long as a compressor on that circuit is on. The third condenser fan motor associated with Output C will be located under the low ambient damper, if that option is in­stalled.

For 25, 30, 50 and 60 ton units, the Saturated Condenser OA Temp Suppression Setpoint (SCTOATSS) is a Human Interface settable parameter (default: 40°F, range: 30 ­50°F, Disabled: above 50°F) which determines how many condenser fan outputs will turn on.
Upon first compressor start on a circuit, all condenser fans remain off until the SCT rises above the control band lower limit. On 25, 30, 50 and 60 ton units, if the Outdoor Air Temperature (OAT) is greater than or equal to the SCTOATSS, or the SCTOATSS Function is disabled, all condenser fan outputs will be energized. If the OAT is less than the SCTOATSS, only Outputs B and C are energized. On 20 and 40 ton units, all condenser fan outputs will be energized.
When one or more condenser fan outputs are energized: If the SCT rises above the SCTUL, for 20 and 40 ton units,
all condenser fan outputs are energized. For 25, 30, 50 and 60 ton units, if the OAT is less than the SCTOATSS only one condenser fan stage will be added. If the OAT is greater than or equal to SCTOATSS, or the SCTOATSS Function is disabled, all condenser fan stages will be ener­gized.
If the SCT falls below the SCTLL, for 20 and 40 ton units, if both Outputs A and C are on, then Output A is de-ener­gized. If only Output C was on, it remains on. For 25, 50 and 60 ton units, if both Outputs A and B are on, Output A is de-energized. energized. are on, Output A is de-energized. is on, Output B is de-energized and Output A is energized.

If the SCT rises above the Saturated Condensing Tempera­ture Efficiency Check Point (SCTECP), for 20 and 40 ton units, no outputs are changed. For 25, 50 and 60 ton units, if the OAT is less than the SCTOATSS, no outputs are changed. If the OAT is greater than the SCTOATSS, or dis­abled, if Output A and Output B are off, then Output B is en­ergized. If Output B is on and Output A is off, no outputs are changed. For 30 ton units, if the OAT is less than the SCTOATSS, no outputs are changed. If the OAT is greater than the SCTOATSS, or disabled, if Output A and Output B are off, Output A is de-energized. If Output A is on and Out­put B is off, Output B is energized and Output A is de-ener­gized. If Output B is on and Output A is off, no outputs are changed.
Notes:
1. If the SCT remains below the SCTLL for 30 seconds after the stage change, then Output B will be de-energized. At this time, only the fan (under the low ambient damper) controlled by Output C will be on.
2. At this time, only the fan (under the low ambient damper) controlled by Output C will be on.
3. If the SCT remains below the SCTLL for 30 seconds after the stage change, then Output A will be energized and Output B will be de-energized. If the SCT remains below the SCTLL for an additional 30 seconds after the stage change, then Output A will be de-energized. At this time, only the fan (under the low ambient damper) controlled by Output C will be on.
4. If the Sat Cond. Temp. remains below the SCTLL for an additional 30 seconds after the stage change, then Out­put A will be de-energized. At this time, only the fan (un­der the low ambient damper) controlled by Output C will be on.
To prevent rapid fan cycling, minimum condenser fan stage on and off time is 5.2 seconds, except when all compressor stages on a circuit are de-energized for any reason, the condenser fan stages on that circuit
General Information
are de-energized immediately without regard to the condenser fan minimum on time. Also, if four fan stage changes occur within a ten minute period, then SCT is controlled to SCTLL minus “Saturated Con­denser Temp Control Band Temporary Low Limit Sup­pression” for a period of one hour.
In a low ambient condition, adding or subtracting a full fan stage provides excess capacity. To provide head pressure control in low ambient conditions, the UCM controls SCT to the “Saturated Condensing Temperature Low Ambient Con­trol Point” by modulating the capacity of a dedicated con­denser fan stage between 0 and 100% via the Low Ambient Fan Control Actuator output
Normally, the head pressure control allows unit operation down to 30°F. With the addition of a low ambient damper, This feature allows for low ambient compressor operation down to 0°F.
The low ambient control algorithm is active on all units, re­gardless of whether the unit is configured as having low ambient damper option.
High Pressure Controls (Standard)
High Pressure controls are located on the discharge lines near the scroll compressors. They are designed to open when the discharge pressure approaches the unit specific pressure setting. The controls reset automatically when the discharge pressure decreases to the unit specific pressure setting. However, the compressors on that circuit are locked out and a manual reset diagnostic is initiated.
Low Ambient Control (Optional)
The low ambient modulating output on the compressor module is functional on all units with or without the low am­bient option.
Anytime the unit is powered-on, this output is operational, regardless if the compressors are ON or OFF. Once the condenser fan operation is started, the condenser fan lo­cated under this damper will remain ON until all compres­sors on that circuit are turned OFF. These dampers will modulate to maintain the saturated condensing temperature to the "Saturated Condensing Temperature Control Point" and the "Low Ambient Control Deadband" which are located under the Human Interface setup screens for Head Pres­sure Control.
Status/Alarm Output (Standard)
Is an internal function within the CGM control module that provides;
a. diagnostic signals to the Human Interface Alarm
LED. b. control of the binary Alarm output. c. control of the binary outputs on the GBAS module to
inform the customer of the operational status and/or
diagnostic conditions.
Compressor Circuit Breakers (Standard)
The Scroll Compressors are protected by circuit breakers which interrupt the power supply to the compressors if the current exceeds the breakers “must trip” value and opens a set of auxiliary contacts in the control circuit.
When the Compressor Module (MCM) detects the open auxiliary compressor contacts, it turns any operating compressor(s) on that circuit “Off”, locks out all compressor operation for that circuit, and initiates a manual reset diag­nostic.

General Information
Compressor Motor Winding Thermostats (Standard)
A thermostat is embedded in the motor windings of each Scroll compressor. Each thermostat is designed to open if the motor windings exceeds approximately 221oF. The ther­mostat will reset automatically when the winding tempera­ture decreases to approximately 181
o
F. Rapid cycling, loss of charge, abnormally high suction temperatures, or the compressor running backwards could cause the thermostat to open. During a request for compressor operation, if the Compressor Module detects a problem outside of it’s nor­mal parameters, it turns any operating compressor(s) on that circuit “Off”, locks out all compressor operation for that circuit, and initiates a manual reset diagnostic.
Low Ambient Compressor Lockout (Standard)
When low ambient compressor lockout is enabled, the com­pressors are not allowed to operate if the temperature of the outside air falls below the lockout setpoint. Compressor operation is enabled when the temperature rises 5
o
F above the lockout setpoint. The setpoints and enable/disable op­tion is programmable at the Human Interface inside the unit control panel. The default setting is 30
o
F.
Short Cycle Protection (Standard)
If compressor operation is interrupted by a loss of power or by a manual reset diagnostic, a minimum of one minute must elapse before the affected compressor(s) will be al­lowed to restart for “Process” applications. A minimum of three minutes must elapse before the affected compressor(s) will be allowed to restart for “Comfort Cool­ing” applications.
Hot Start (Load Limit) Control (Standard)
Each time the system is started and the control of the CGM transitions from “Loop Stabilization” to either “Process” or “Comfort Cooling”, if the Leaving Solution Temperature (LST) is higher than the programmable Hot Start Load Limit Setpoint (HSLLS), the lag compressor on each circuit will be prevented from operating until the leaving solution tem­perature is lowered by 5
If the Hot Start Limit time interval elapses before the LST is

into the Hot Operation mode.
Hot Operation mode is programmable to:
1. Do not limit capacity, initiate an informational diagnostic
until the LST falls 5
o
F below the HSLLS.
2. Limit the capacity to 50 percent (one compressor per cir-
cuit), initiate an auto reset diagnostic until the LST falls 5o F below the HSLLS.
3. Turn “Off” and lockout all of the compressors and initiate
a manual reset diagnostic.
Loss-of-Flow (Solution) Protection (Standard)
All units: Compressors are allowed to operate once the pump is run­ning and the flow switch input is closed. If the flow switch input opens during normal operation for longer than 6 sec­onds, the compressors and fans will stop. If the switch input is still open after 5 minutes, a auto-reset diagnostic (Evap Solution Flow Proving Switch) will be generated. Once this input is closed, the diagnostic will clear and the compres­sors will be allowed to resume operation. If the flow switch fails open or is not connected when the chiller starts up,
only the solution pump output will be energized. 5 minutes later, an auto-reset diagnostic (Evap Solution Flow Proving Switch) will be generated. Once the flow switch input closes, the chiller will operate normally.
If the chiller controls the pump (Chiller solution pump mode = AUTO):
If the pump is cycled off by the CGM or a power failure oc­curs, and the unit is re-started, the flow switch input must open and then close for proper operation. If the switch is stuck closed or shorted, the pump will start but compres­sors will not operate. Also, a manual resettable diagnostic (Evaporator Solution Flow Loss) will be generated. To reset the diagnostic, stop the pump and allow the flow switch to open, then reset at the Human Interface (see Programming Guide).
Note: There is a minimum "off" time of 60 seconds for the pump output. This "off" time is overridden if the flow switch opens.
If the chiller does not control the pump (Chiller solution pump mode = ON):
Do not bypass the flow switch input! If the flow switch input is bypassed, the unit will not have flow loss protection and equipment damage may result.
WARNING Equipment Damage!
Do not bypass the flow switch input! If the flow switch input is bypassed, the unit will not have flow loss pro­tection and equipment damage may result.
The flow switch input must be closed for compressor opera­tion. If the flow switch input is open and a request for cool­ing is given, compressors will not start and a auto-reset di­agnostic (Evap Solution Flow Proving Switch) will be gener­ated after 5 minutes. Once this input is closed, the diag­nostic will clear and the compressors will be allowed to op­erate.
Low Ambient Start (Standard)
Before first start of a compressor on a refrigerant circuit, the CGM Low Ambient LPC Bypass output is closed which by­passes the Freeze Protection Cutout (FPC) switch in the MCM Low Pressure Cutout (LPC) input circuit for a period of time that varies based on the prevailing ambient tem­perature. The relationship between this variable time period and the ambient temperature is linear from a maximum of 5 minutes at 0°F to a minimum of two minutes at 65°F. A fixed three minute bypass time is initiated each time a subse­quent compressor is started on a refrigerant circuit. No ad­ditional compressors will be allowed to start within that cir­cuit until the bypass time has expired.
Chiller Solution Pump Output Relay (Standard)
A Solution Pump binary output (Form C) relay is located on the CGM which may be used to control the chiller solution pump.
If the Chiller Solution Pump Mode, at the Human Interface Module, is set to “On”, the Solution Pump will run continu­ously.
If the Chiller Solution Pump Mode, at the Human Interface Module, is set to Auto, the Solution Pump will be turned “Off”:
8
1. when the unit is stopped (Unit Stop or External Auto/
Stop)
2. during the unit’s Power On Delay Time
3. when the primary control states are:
Ice Rebuild Delay Ice Building Complete
A Solution Pump “Off Delay” Time may be programmed to allow the Solution Pump to remain “On”, for an adjustable period of time between 0.5 minutes and 10 minutes, at the time an “Off” state is requested. The Solution Pump will al­ways run for this delay time when turning off except during an Emergency Stop condition. If an Emergency Stop is initi­ated, the Solution Pump is immediately turned “Off” (relay de-energized).
On units configured with pump mode 'Auto', a solution pump 'On Delay' of 60 seconds will be enforced after the pump turns off to allow the solution flow proving switch to open before the pump is allowed to start. If the flow switch opens, this delay will be over-riden and the pump will be allowed to start.
Low Ambient Pump Control (Standard)
A Low Ambient Pump “On” Control function (LAPC) allows the pump to run continuously if either the entering or leaving solution temperature falls below a programmable Low Ambi­ent Pump Override Temperature (LAPT) Setpoint or if either the entering or leaving Solution temperature input failure occurs. An Auto Reset Diagnostic will be issued and remain as long as the condition exists.
If both entering and leaving solution temperatures rise above the Low Ambient Pump Override Temp Setpoint plus three degrees and either temperature has risen above the Active Leaving Solution Setpoint, the Auto Reset diagnostic is cleared and the pump is turned off.
This function will be disabled when an Emergency Stop request is initiated.
During service test operation, if a low ambient condition ex­ists when the operator attempts to turn the pump “Off”, a message will be displayed on the Human Interface Module advising that the pump cannot be turned off due to the low ambient condition.
General Information
External Auto/Stop (Optional)
The unit can be Stopped and Started by a remote customer provided field installed binary input device (such as a time clock) connected to the CGM. When the input is opened (Stop), the unit will stage the compressors and the solution pump “Off” in a normal manner and display “Off due to ex­ternal stop” at the unit Human Interface. When the input is closed (Start), the unit will start and run normally.
The External Auto/Stop input operates in the same manner as the STOP/AUTO keys on the unit mounted Human Inter face or the Remote Human Interface (RHI). However, the Stop key at the unit mounted Human Interface has priority over both the remote External Auto/Stop and the Remote Human Interface Auto/Stop.
Note: If the STOP key is pressed at the unit mounted Human Interface, no remote AUTO (Start) key will start the unit until the AUTO key is pressed at the unit mounted Human Interface.
A start (AUTO) command is allowed only if no overriding di­agnostics or higher priority function is present.
Flow Switch Interlock (Standard)
While the factory provided field installed flow switch is wired to the CGM, if it opens for more than 6 continuous seconds when the pump is requested to be "On", compressor opera­tion will be inhibited and if compressors are operating, they will be turned off. If the flow switch remains open for 5 con­tinuous minutes an auto reset diagnostic will occur.
Chiller Heat Tape Control Output
Heat tape control for the chiller heat exchanger will be pro­vided by the unit. If either the entering or leaving solution temperatures fall below the heat tape temperature setpoint, the heat tape relay on the MCM module will de-energize, turning the heat tape on. If either of these two sensors fail, the heat tape relay will de-energize, turning the heat tape on. The heat tape relay will energize, turning the heat tape off when 1) compressor operation is required, or 2) both EST and LST rise 3

o
F above the heat tape temperature.
Emergency Stop (Optional)
Is accomplished when a customer provided, field installed binary input device is connected to the CGM. The unit will immediately shut down when the contacts are opened. Emergency Stop is a top priority command that will override all other commands received by the UCM. A manual reset diagnostic will occur and an indication showing that the unit is shut down due to Emergency Stop will be displayed at the Human Interface Module.

Rigging
A Rigging illustration and Center-of-Gravity dimensional data table is shown in Figure 3. Refer to the typical unit op­erating weights table before proceeding.
1. Rig the condensing unit as shown in Figure 3. Attach ad­equate strength lifting slings to all four lifting brackets in the unit base rail. Do not use cables, chains, or slings ex­cept as shown.
2. Install spreader bars, as shown in Figure 3, to protect the unit and to facilitate a uniform lift. The minimum distance between the lifting hook and the top of the unit should be 7 feet.
3. Test-lift the unit to ensure it is properly rigged and bal­anced, make any necessary rigging adjustments.
4. Lift the unit and position it into place.
Unit Isolation
Installation
6. Level the unit carefully. Refer to the “Leveling the Unit” section.
7. After the unit is level, tighten the isolator base mounting bolts to secure them to the mounting surface.
Spring Isolators
Install the spring isolators at each unit mounting (load) point using the following procedure:
1. Elevate the unit (one side at a time) to allow access to the base rail mounting holes.
WARNING
Isolator Installation!
Use solid type blocks, i.e. 4" X 4" wood blocks or similar material to prevent collapsing. Keep hands and other body limbs clear of elevated base rail while installing isolators to prevent personal injury.
To minimize unit sound and vibration transmission, one of the following installation methods should be used:
1. Install the unit directly on an isolated (detached) concrete pad or on isolated concrete footings located at each unit load point.
2. Install the optional neoprene or spring isolators at each mounting location. Refer to the following “Neoprene iso­lators” or “Spring Isolator” section.
Neoprene Isolators
Install the neoprene isolators at each unit mounting (load) point, using the following procedure:
1. Elevate the unit (one side at a time) to allow access to the base rail mounting holes.
WARNING
Isolator Installation!
Use solid type blocks, i.e. 4" X 4" wood blocks or similar material to prevent collapsing. Keep hands and other body limbs clear of elevated base rail while installing isolators to prevent personal injury.
2. Align the mounting holes in the base rail of the unit with the holes in the top of the appropriate isolator. Refer to
Figure 4 for the appropriate isolator for each load point.
3. Install a 1/2" NC bolt (field supplied) through the base rail of the unit into the threaded bolt hole of the isolator. Po­sition the isolator to allow access to the mounting holes in the base of the isolator, then tighten securely.
4. Lower the unit and isolator onto the mounting surface. The maximum isolator deflection should be approxi-
mately 1/4 inch.
5. Secure the isolator to the mounting surface using the base holes in the isolator.
2. Align the mounting holes in the base rail of the unit with the positioning pin in the top of the appropriate isolator. Refer to Figure 5 for the appropriate isolator for each load point.
3. Position the isolator to allow access to the mounting holes in the base of the isolator.
4. Lower the unit onto the isolator. The positioning pin on the isolator must engage into the hole of the base rail. The clearance between the upper and lower isolator housings should be approximately 1/4 to 1/2 inch. Refer to Figure 5. A clearance greater than 1/2 inch indicates that shims are required to level the unit. Refer to the “Leveling the Unit” section.
5. Make minor clearance adjustments by turning the isolator leveling bolt (Figure 5) clockwise to increase the clear-
ance and counterclockwise to decrease the clearance. If proper isolator clearance cannot be obtained by turning the leveling bolt, level the isolators themselves. A 1/4 inch variance in elevation is acceptable.
6. Secure the isolator to the mounting surface using the base holes in the isolator.
7. After the unit is level, tighten the isolator base mounting bolts to secure them to the mounting surface.
Leveling the Unit
Before tightening the mounting bolts, level the unit carefully. Use the unit base rail as a reference. Level the unit to within 1/4 inch over its entire length. Use shims if non-adjustable isolators (neoprene) are used.
If adjustable isolators (spring) are used, ensure that the proper isolator housing clearance is maintained while level­ing the unit. Isolators are identified by color and/or an isola­tor part number. Shims under the isolators may be required if the unit can not be leveled using the isolator leveling bolt.

or other remote device, if applicable).
Chilled Water Piping
Evaporator water inlet and outlet types, sizes and locations are shown in Figure 2. Refer to the operating GPM param­eters listed in Table 9 when determining flow and piping re­quirements. Figure 8 illustrates the typical water piping components for chiller applications. Refer to this illustration while following the discussion on the various piping compo­nents.
24
Installation
Isolate the water pumps from the system to avoid vibration transmission. To minimize heat gain and prevent condensa­tion, insulate all water piping. Use an appropriate pipe seal­ant on all threaded connections.
Chilled Water Access Holes
These units have water access panels that contain perfo­rated “circles” and panel separations (30 to 60 ton chillers allow access through either of two sides. See Figure 7A). Removing these “circles” provides piping access to the chiller. Each panel contains one or two perforated “circles”, remove both perforated "circles" per panel. Therefore, fol­low these steps to ensure proper panel modification.
1. Refer to Figure 7A and mark an “X” on the outer perfo­rated “circle” in each water access panel. (These are aligned with the water inlet and outlet piping on the heat exchanger).
2. Remove all the screws located below the perforation of both panels. Do not remove any screws above the perfo­ration.
3. Break both panels at the perforation by grasping them near the bottom and bending with a back and forth mo­tion.
4. Remove the resulting “half-moon” sections that were marked with an “X”.
Note: Remove only the “half-moon” sections that were marked with an “X”.
5. For 50 and 60 Ton units, an additional perforated section in the upright brace behind the access panels must be removed. Break this piece out with pliers and discard.
6. Apply edge protector to the upper and lower portions of both panels along the entire length of the broken perfora­tion as shown in Figure 7B. (The edge protector is fac­tory provided, and is secured to the chiller foot).
7. Reinstall the lower halves of the water access panels and secure them with the screws that were removed in step two.
Note: The gap between the insulated pipe and the access holes must not exceed 1/2 inch. Refer to Figure 7C.
Air Vents
A vent port is located on top of the chiller near the return end. Additional vents must be installed at high points in the piping system to facilitate air purging during the filling pro­cess.
Water Pressure Gauges
Install pressure gauge(s) at the chiller barrel to monitor the entering and leaving solution pressure.
Note: To prevent evaporator damage, do not exceed 150 psig evaporator pressure.
Water Shutoff Valves
Provide shutoff valves in the “Supply” and “Return” pipe near the chiller so the gauge(s), thermostats, sensors, strainer, etc., can be isolated during service.
Pipe Unions
Use pipe unions to simplify disassembly for system service. Use vibration eliminators to prevent transmitting vibrations through the water lines
Thermometers
Install thermometers in the lines to monitor the evaporator entering and leaving water temperatures.
Balancing Valves
Install a balancing cock (valve) in the leaving water line. It will be used to establish a balanced flow.
Note: Both the entering and leaving water lines should have shutoff valves installed to isolate the evaporator for service.
Strainer
The strainer is factory provided and should be installed in the water line entering the chiller to protect the evaporator from entrapped debris.
Chiller Drain
The chiller drain should be piped to a suitable drain facility to facilitate evaporator draining during service or shutdown procedures. Provide a shutoff valve in the drain line.
Note: The chiller ships without the drain plug installed. If drain piping is not installed, remove the drain plug from the control panel and install it in the drain port before filling the system with water.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote discon­nects before servicing. Follow proper lockout/tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvert­ently energized. Failure to disconnect power before ser­vicing could result in death or serious injury.
Chiller Flow Switch
Install the factory provided flow switch or other flow sensing device, illustrated in Figure 9, to prevent or stop the com­pressor operation if the water flow drops off drastically. A flow switch ships standard with each unit. Locate the device in the chilled water supply line (water outlet) as shown in Figure 8. Refer to the field wiring and unit schematics for the flow switch electrical interlock connections.

Final Water Piping Connections
1. All water piping to the system should be flushed thor­oughly before making the final connections.
Note: If an acidic commercial flushing solution is used, construct a temporary bypass around the chiller to prevent damage to the internal components of the evaporator.
2. Connect the water pipe to the chiller.
3. Install the drain plug, (if no drain is used) or ensure the drain shutoff valve is closed.
4. While filling the chiller system with solution, vent the air from the system at the highest points.
Note: To prevent possible damage to the equipment, do not use untreated or improperly treated water in the system.
Freeze Protection from Ambient Conditions
Use the procedure described below to ensure that the chilled water system is adequately protected from freeze-up in applications where the unit remains operational at sub­freezing ambient temperatures and against ice formation at the lowest expected operating temperatures by adding a non-freezing, low-temperature, heat-transfer fluid to the chilled water.
Ice making units with a termination setpoint of 27oF mini­mum entering chilled water temperature require a 25 per­cent glycol solution (minimum requirement by weight) to provide system freeze protection.
For evaporator water capacities, refer to the “System Start­Up” section. For the use and testing of the antifreeze solu­tion, follow the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Note: Use of an ethylene glycol-type antifreeze reduces unit cooling capacity; this condition must be accounted for during total system design. Also, the low pressure control may need to be changed. Contact the local Trane® representative.
For all 60 Hz units, heat tape is factory-installed on the unit evaporator. Heat tape is optional on 50 Hz units. This heat tape will protect the evaporator from freezing due to low ambient temperatures down to -20 draw for 60 Hz units is 125 Watts on 20 through 30 Ton units, and 250 Watts on 40 through 60 Ton units. For 50 Hz units, heat tape power draw is 420 Watts on all units.

Internal/External Piping Heat Tape
(Field Provided)
Install an appropriately sized non-unit powered fused dis­connect switch for the heat tape when applying it to all ex­posed piping. Be sure to use heat tape that is recom­mended for low-temperature applications. It should be ther­mostatic controlled and dissipate 7 watts per linear foot. A field installed thermostat must be installed if the heat tape does not include a thermostat.
To install the heat tape properly, follow the instructions pro­vided by the heat tape manufacturer. If no instructions are provided, use the recommendations outlined below:
Figure 10
Typical Insulated, Spiralled Heat Tape Installation
1. Wrap the heat tape around the pipe or apply it straight along the pipe, as necessary, to provide the required pro­tection. Refer to Tables 2A and 2B.
2. Use friction tape to secure the heat tape to the solution pipe.
3. Place the thermostat parallel to the water pipe and tape it tightly in place at both ends. Be sure to install the ther­mostat on the most exposed (i.e., coldest) portion of the pipe.
4. Wrap the pipe with an insulation material and cover it with a weatherproof tape (if additional protection is re­quired). On vertical pipe runs, start the wrap at the bot­tom and work up as shown in Figure 10. Be sure to over­lap the tape so that it will shed moisture.
Note: To prevent heat tape failure, frozen pipes, and other unit damage, do not install insulation under the weatherproof wrap if a non-thermostatic controlled heat tape is used.

Field Installed Power Wiring
An overall dimensional layout for the field installed wiring entrance into the unit is illustrated in Figure 2. To insure that the unit’s supply power wiring is properly sized and in­stalled, follow the guidelines outlined below.
Note: All field installed wiring must conform to NEC guidelines as well as State and Local codes.
Verify that the power supply available is compatible with the unit’s nameplate ratings. The available supply power must be within 10% of the rated voltage stamped on the name­plate. Use only copper conductors to connect the 3-phase power supply to the unit.
CAUTION Use Copper Conductors Only!
Unit terminals are not designed to accept other types of conductors. Failure to use copper conductors may re­sult in equipment damage.
Disconnect Switch External Handle
(Factory Mounted Option)
Units ordered with the factory mounted nonfused discon­nect switch comes equipped with an externally mounted handle. This allows the operator to disconnect power from the unit without having to open the control panel door. The handle locations and its three positions are shown below;
“ON” - Indicates that the disconnect switch is closed,
allowing the main power supply to be applied at the unit.
“OFF” - Indicates that the disconnect switch is open,
interrupting the main power supply to the unit controls.
“OPEN COVER/RESET” - Turning the handle to this
position releases the handle form the disconnect switch, allowing the control panel door to be opened.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote discon­nects before servicing. Follow proper lockout/tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvert­ently energized. Failure to disconnect power before ser­vicing could result in death or serious injury.
Once the door has been opened, it can be closed with the handle in any one of the three positions outlined above, provided it matches the disconnect switch position.
An overall layout of the field required power wiring is illus­trated in Figure 11. These diagrams are representative of standard applications and are for general reference only. Al­ways refer to the wiring diagram that shipped with the unit for specific electrical schematic and connection information.
Main Unit Power Wiring
Table 3 lists the field connection wire ranges for both the main power terminal block 1TB1 and the optional factory mounted nonfused disconnect switch 1S14. The unit electri­cal data is listed in Table 4. The electrical service must be protected from over current and short circuit conditions in accordance with NEC requirements. Protection devices must be sized according to the electrical data on the name­plate. Refer to the “Power Wire Sizing & Protection Device Equations”, for determining;
a. the appropriate electrical service wire size based on
“Minimum Circuit Ampacity” (MCA),
b. the “Maximum Over current Protection” (MOP)
device.
c. the “Recommended Dual Element fuse size” (RDE).
1. If the unit is stalled nonfused disconnect switch, a field supplied dis­connect switch must be installed at or near the unit in ac­cordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC latest edition). Refer to the “Power Wire Sizing & Protection Device Equations” (DSS calculation), for determining the correct size.
2. Complete the unit’s power wiring connections onto either the main terminal block 1TB1, or the factory mounted nonfused disconnect switch 1S14, inside the unit control panel. Refer to the customer connection diagram that shipped with the unit for specific termination points.

Power Wire Sizing and Protection Device Equations
To correctly size the main power wiring for the unit, use the appropriate calculation(s) listed below. Read the load definitions that follow and use Calculation #1 for determining the MCA (Minimum Circuit Ampacity), MOP (Maximum Over current Pro­tection), and RDE (Recommended Dual Element fuse size) for each unit. Use Calculation #2 to determine the DSS (Discon­nect Switch Size) for each unit.
Load Definitions: LOAD 1 = CURRENT OF THE LARGEST MOTOR (COMPRESSOR OR FAN MOTOR)
LOAD 2 = SUM OF THE CURRENTS OF ALL REMAINING MOTORS LOAD 4 = CONTROL POWER TRANSFORMER

Calculation #1
(MCA, MOP, and RDE)
MCA = (1.25 x LOAD 1) + LOAD 2 + LOAD 4 MOP = (2.25 x LOAD 1) + LOAD 2 + LOAD 4
Select a fuse rating equal to the MOP value. If the MOP value does not equal a standard fuse size as listed in NEC 240 - 6, select the next lower standard fuse rating.
Note: If selected MOP is less than the MCA, then select the lowest standard maximum fuse size which is equal to or larger than the MCA, provided the selected fuse size does not exceed 800 amps.
RDE = (1.5 x LOAD 1) + LOAD 2 + LOAD 4
Select a fuse rating equal to the RDE value. If the RDE value does not equal a standard fuse size as listed in NEC 240 - 6 select the next higher standard fuse rating.
Note: If the selected RDE is greater than the selected MOP value, then select the RDE value to equal the MOP value.

Remote Running/Alarm Indicator (Optional)
If the remote run indication and alarm contacts are used, a 24 VAC control circuit must be provided between the Re­mote Running/Alarm Indicator panel and the appropriate terminals located at the UCM. Maximum contact rating @ 24 VAC is 10 Amp inrush and 3.2 Amp sealed. Refer to the “field wiring” diagrams illustrated in Figure 12A. Provide a proper remote panel ground connection.
External Auto/Stop (Optional)
If the unit utilizes an optional remote Auto/Stop function, the installer must provide control wiring from the remote pump relay contacts (5S67) to the appropriate terminals on 1TB4 terminal board.
When this set of contacts opens, the UCM reads it as a command to stop chiller operation and begin the pumpdown cycle (if enabled).
Circuit requirements are 2-wire, 24 VDC; w/maximum con­tact rating 12 mA. Refer to the field wiring diagram illus­trated in Figure 12A for the termination points.
Flow Control Interlock (6S1)
The required flow switch is a binary output device and is wired within the interlock circuit providing (required) chilled water flow interlock diagnostic for the system. Before install­ing the control wiring, refer to Figure 2 for the electrical ac­cess into the control panel. Refer to the field connection diagram for the specific connection points.
Provide a proper ground for all control circuitry at the ground connection screws provided within the unit’s control panel.

BAS/NETWORK Communication Link
This option allows the unit control module (UCM) in the unit to exchange information (i.e., operating setpoints and AUTO/STOP commands) with a higher level control device, such as a Tracer or a third party BAS. Twisted-pair conduc­tors establish the bi-directional communications link be­tween the unit’s control module and Tracer or a third party BAS.
Maximum Capacitance
Between Conductors
1. Refer to the Tracer installation literature to determine proper communication link termination connections at the Tracer unit. Multiple UCM’s on the communication link can be connected in a “daisy chain” configuration.
2. Connect the shield of the communication link wiring to the designated shield terminal at the Tracer 100.
3. Connect the shielded, twisted pair leads from the Tracer to the proper terminals on the UCM. There is no polarity requirement for this connection.
4. At the UCM, the shield should be cut off and taped to prevent any contact between the shield and ground.
Note: On multiple unit installations, connect the shield between each “daisy- chained” UCM in the system to the shield of the twisted-pair leads going to the next unit in line. Tape the spliced connection to prevent any contact between the shield and ground. At the last UCM on the link, the shield should be cut off and taped.
Ice Building Control Option
The CGM provides auxiliary control for a customer speci­fied/installed contact closure for ice making. When this field installed normally open contact (5K86) is provided, the chiller will run normally. Upon contact closure, the unit will operate fully loaded until the entering water temperature falls below the preprogrammed ice building setpoint. High quality silver or gold-plated contacts are recommended. The field supplied contacts must be compatible with 24 VDC, 12 mA resistive load.
Connect the 5K86 relay contacts to the proper terminals on 1TB4 as illustrated in Figure 12A.
Compressor Inhibit / KW Limit
When a unit is equipped with a TCI module, the Demand Limit request is comunicated from Tracer. When a unit is equipped with GBAS (0-5V and/or 0-10V), a customer pro­vided/installed remote contact (5K89) initiates the demand limit function. When the contact is “Open”, the chiller will operate normally. When the contact closes, the unit will be limited to the programmed operating capacity (25%, 50%, 75%, or 100%). When the contact opens, normal chiller op­eration is restored.
High quality silver or gold-plated contacts are recom­mended. These customer-supplied contacts must be com­patible with 24 VDC, 12 mA resistive load. Refer to the wire selection Table 6 for proper wire size and Figure 12B or Fig­ure 12C for proper termination points.
Connect the wiring from the field supplied normally open contacts between terminals 5 and 6 on 1TB16, if 0 - 5 Volt GBAS is installed.
Connect the wiring from the field supplied normally open contacts between terminals 1 and 2 on 1TB17, if 0 - 10 Volt GBAS is installed.
Connect the wiring from the field supplied normally open contacts between the proper terminals on 1TB16 and 1TB17 when both GBAS modules are installed. Refer to the appropriate wiring diagram illustrated in Figure 12B and Figure 12C for connections.

System Pre-Start Procedures
Use the checklist provided below in conjunction with the “General Unit Requirement” checklist” to ensure that the unit is properly installed and ready for operation. Be sure to complete all of the procedures described in this section be­fore starting the unit for the first time.
[ ] Turn the field supplied disconnect switch, located up-
stream of the unit, to the “Off” position.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote discon­nects before servicing. Follow proper lockout/tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvert­ently energized. Failure to disconnect power before ser­vicing could result in death or serious injury.
[ ] Turn the “System” selection switch (at the Remote Panel)
to the “Off” position and the “Fan” selection switch (if ap­plicable) to the “Auto” or “Off” position.
[ ] Check all electrical connections for tightness and “point
of termination” accuracy.
[ ] Verify that the condenser airflow will be unobstructed.
[ ] Check the condenser fan blades. Ensure they rotate
freely within the fan orifices and are securely fastened to the fan motor shaft.
[ ] Verify that all compressor service valves, discharge ser-
vice valves, and liquid line service valves are back seated on each circuit.
WARNING
Live Electrical Components!
During installation, testing, servicing and troubleshoot­ing of this product, it may be necessary to work with live electrical components. Have a qualified licensed electrician or other individual who has been properly trained in handling live electrical components perform these tasks. Failure to follow all electrical safety pre­cautions when exposed to live electrical components could result in death or serious injury.
Voltage Imbalance
Excessive three phase voltage imbalance between phases will cause motors to overheat and eventually fail. The maxi­mum allowable voltage imbalance is 2%. Measure and record the voltage between phases 1, 2, and 3 and calcu­late the amount of imbalance as follows:
% Voltage Imbalance = 100 X
AV (Average Voltage) =
V1, V2, V3 = Line Voltage Readings VD = Line Voltage reading that deviates the farthest from the average voltage.
Example: If the voltage readings of the supply power measured 221, 230, and 227, the average volts would be:
221 + 230 + 227 = 226 Avg.
3
AV - VD where;
AV
Volt 1 + Volt 2 + Volt 3

CAUTION Compressor Damage!
Do not allow liquid refrigerant to enter the suction line. Excessive liquid accumulation in the liquid lines may result in compressor damage.
Compressor service valves must be fully opened before start-up (suction, discharge, liquid line, and oil line).
Failure to fully open valves prior to start-up may cause compressor failure due to lack of refrigerant and/or oil flow.
[ ] Inspect the interior of the unit for tools and debris.
[ ] Fill the chilled water system.
[ ] Vent the chilled water system at the highest points in the
system. Vent the air out of the chiller barrel by opening the vent, located on the top of the chiller barrel. Close the vent when the chiller barrel is full of water.
[ ] Once the system has been filled, inspect the entire
chilled water piping system for leaks. Make any neces­sary repairs before proceeding.
Note: To avoid possible equipment damage, do not use untreated or improperly treated system water.
VD (reading farthest from average) = 221
The percentage of Imbalance equals:
226 - 221 = 2.2%
100 X
The 2.2% imbalance in this example exceeds the maximum allowable imbalance of 2.0%. This much imbalance be­tween phases can equal as much as a 20% current imbal­ance with a resulting increase in motor winding tempera­tures that will decrease motor life. If the voltage imbalance is over 2%, notify the proper agencies to correct the voltage problem before operating this equipment.
226
Scroll Compressor Current Imbalance
Typically, current imbalance is associated with loss in motor efficiency, higher operating motor temperature, loss of per­formance and reliability.
With the designs of specialized motors such as those used in the Trane scroll compressor, operating temperature, effi­ciency, performance, and reliability has been taken into ac­count in the total performance of the compressor.
Current imbalance in a scroll compressor can typically vary from 4 to 15 percent with balanced line voltage. This imbal­ance occurs because not all of the winding turns see the same amount of stator iron. The variance of iron within the motor is to accommodate design requirements for motor cooling and oil return.
39
System Pre-Start Procedures
At low operating voltage and high operating load, the imbal­ance may be around 4 percent. At high operating voltage and low operating load, the imbalance may be as high as 15 percent.
If an imbalance situation is suspected within the compres­sor (current draw unequal between phases) and the line voltage imbalance does not exceed 2 percent;
1. Turn the field supplied disconnect switch, located up­stream of the unit to the “Off” position.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote discon­nects before servicing. Follow proper lockout/tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvert­ently energized. Failure to disconnect power before ser­vicing could result in death or serious injury.
2. Disconnect the compressor leads at the compressor ter­minals.
3. Measure the resistance of the compressor windings at the compressor terminals.
The compressor motor is internally connected for clockwise rotation with the incoming power supply phased as A, B, C.
Proper electrical supply phasing can be quickly determined and corrected before starting the unit by using an instru­ment such as an Associated Research Model 45 Phase Se­quence Indicator and following the steps below:
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote discon­nects before servicing. Follow proper lockout/tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvert­ently energized. Failure to disconnect power before ser­vicing could result in death or serious injury.
HIGH VOLTAGE IS PRESENT AT TERMINAL BLOCK 1TB1 OR UNIT DISCONNECT SWITCH 1S14.
[ ] Turn the field supplied disconnect switch that provides
power to terminal block 1TB1 or to the unit mounted dis­connect switch 1S14 to the “Off” position.
[ ] Connect the phase sequence indicator leads to terminal
block 1TB1 or to the unit mounted disconnect switch 1S14 as follows;
The actual resistance measured across each winding is not as important as the amount of variation between the windings. The actual resistance measured may vary due to the accuracy of the meter, rounding off of the resis­tance readings, and the amount of resistance between the meter leads and the compressor terminals.
Since the amount of copper in each winding is very con­sistent, the variance between the windings should not exceed 7 percent.
Example: Typical 10 Ton, 460 volt, 60 Hz compressor has a winding resistance of 1.44 to 1.09 Ohms.
Electrical Phasing
Unlike traditional reciprocating compressors, scroll com­pressors are phase sensitive. Proper phasing of the electri­cal supply to the unit is critical for proper operation and reli­ability.
Black (phase A) to L1 Red (phase B) to L2 Yellow (phase C) to L3
[ ] Close the disconnect switch or circuit protector switch
that provides the supply power to the unit’s terminal block 1TB1 or the unit mounted disconnect switch 1S14.
[ ] Observe the ABC and CBA phase indicator lights on the
face of the sequencer. The ABC indicator light will glow if the phase is ABC. If the CBA indicator light glows, open the disconnect switch or circuit protection switch and re­verse any two power wires.
[ ] Restore the main electrical power and recheck the phas-
ing. If the phasing is correct, open the disconnect switch or circuit protection switch and remove the phase se­quence indicator.

Sequence of Operation
Chiller Control for Comfort Applications
The CGM controls the leaving solution temperature (LST) to within an adjustable setpoint using deadband control. The CGM monitors the LST sensor and determines how far away the temperature is from the leaving solution setpoint (LSS). The compressors are staged On/Off depending on where the LST is within the control deadband.
Deadband Calculation
The rate at which capacity stages are added or subtracted is determined by a control algorithm The CGM control deadband for comfort applications is a calculated value based upon the control response setpoint, the difference between LSS and LST, the number of capacity steps, the design delta temperature (DDT) of the system, and the number of capacity steps. The minimum comfort deadband is 1 degree F. The maximum comfort deadband above or below the LSS is 10 F for a two stage unit and 5 stage unit.
When the LST is inside the control deadband, the calcula­tion is cleared and no response is initiated. When the LST is outside the deadband and the calculated control algo­rithm value equals 1, a capacity add command is initiated. Conversely, when the value of the control algorithm equals ­1, a capacity subtract command is initiated. Once a capac­ity add or subtract command is given and a change in the compressor staging has been detected, the value of the control algorithm is reset to 0.
Chiller Freeze Protection
The CGM prevents evaporator fluid from freezing by utiliz­ing two separate algorithms. One is the evaporator limit control algorithm which stages compressors “Off” if violated and the other is the evaporator freeze protection algorithm which activates auto/manual diagnostics if violated. The freeze protection function will always operate as long as the unit is in the Auto mode for both normal cooling applications and/or ice building modes. A manual reset diagnostic will occur if all compressors are shut off due to a freeze protec­tion violation.
The evaporator limit control integrator (ELCI) algorithm cal­culates a value based upon the low solution temperature cutout setpoint and the leaving solution temperature. When the value for ELCI drops below -1, the unit control will re­duce the chiller capacity by staging down and/or inhibiting a compressor from operation. After each capacity subtract command from the capacity control algorithm is issued, ELCI is increased by 1 and retained. The ELCI is set to 0 any time the leaving solution temperature is greater than or equal to the low solution temperature cutout (LSC) + 3 Compressors will be prevented from operating until the leaving solution temperature (LST) is 4
o
F above the LSC.
If Pumpdown is enabled and a subtract command is issued, the circuit will be allow to pumpdown.
If HGBP is enabled (Pumpdown is disabled) and a subtract command is sent by the ELCI, HGBP operation will be initi­ated before the last compressor is turned “Off”. Once HGBP has been initiated, all subtract commands sent by the ELCI will be ignored. If the Leaving Solution Temperature (LST) is less than the Low Solution Cutout (LSC) + 1 ther prevented from operating or turned “Off”.

Evaporator Freeze Protection Diagnostic
The evaporator freeze protection integrator (EFZ) will start integrating when the leaving solution temperature or enter­ing solution temperature is less than the low solution tem­perature cutout setpoint. Once EFZ integrates up to 30 Sec, the following diagnostics will occur:
1. If all compressors are off, an auto diagnostic will occur. All of the compressors will be prevented from operating until the LST and/or ESTis 4oF greater than the LSC. Once the LST and/or EST is 4oF above the LSC, the unit will allow normal unit operation.
2. If any compressors are “On”, a manual diagnostic will oc­cur. All of the compressors will be shutdown and locked out due to the violation of the evaporator freeze protec­tion.
Sequence of Operation
Chiller Control for Ice Building Mode
The CGM provides Ice Building control when a customer provided field installed binary input is connected to the CGM or requested by Tracer (TCI only).
Ice Building can be activated by:
Closing the customer provided field installed remote device, or Ice building requested by Tracer (TCI only), provided; Ice machine option is installed, and Ice building is enabled through the Human Interface Module
The optional Ice building machine has two ice building modes:
1. One Time Ice Build Mode Once the ice building mode is initiated, the unit will run fully loaded until the entering solution temperature (EST) equals the ice building termination setpoint (IBTS). After the IBTS is reached, the unit will transition into the “Ice Building Complete” mode and turn all compressors “Off” and the solution pump “Off” (if pump mode is in “Auto”). The unit will remain in the ice build complete status until the unit is cycled out of the “Ice Building” mode.
2. Continuous Ice Build Mode Once the ice building mode is initiated, the unit will run fully loaded until the EST equals the IBTS. After the EST reaches the IBTS, the unit will transition into the “Ice Re­build Delay” mode and turn all compressors “Off” and the solution pump “Off” (if pump mode is in “Auto”). The unit will remain in the ice rebuild delay status until the Ice Re­build Delay Timer (IRDT) expires. Once the IRDT time expires the unit will transition to the “Loop Stabilization” state and turn the solution pump “On” (if pump mode is in “Auto”). Once the loop stabilization timer has expired, the unit will transition into the ice building mode and will run fully loaded until the IBTS is reached. After the IBTS is reached, the unit will transition into the “Ice Rebuild De­lay” mode again. The unit will continue to cycle through the ice building, ice rebuild delay and loop stabilization states until the unit is cycled out of the ice building mode or the continuous ice building mode is changed to the one time ice building mode.
41
System Start-Up
Ice Building can be terminated by:
Opening the customer provided field installed remote device, or Ice building stopped from ICS communications.
If at any time the unit is switched from the Ice Building mode to normal comfort operation, the unit will transition to ice building complete status and stage all operating com­pressors “Off”.
Sequence of Operation
Chiller Control for Process Applications
Process applications are characterized as having fast changes in load and these loads are not adequately con­trolled with the same scheme used for comfort applications. To provide better control of these dynamic loads, a Propor­tional + Integral “control to setpoint” (as opposed to “control to deadband”) control strategy is used. System reliability is inversely proportional to compressor cycle rates so reliabil­ity is the driving factor for determining maximum cycle rate which ultimately translates into cycle-to-cycle leaving solu­tion temperature swings.
To provide stable capacity control, a 1 minute minimum time between compressor starts is required. The control will de­termine an estimate of instantaneous load based on error from setpoint for the leaving solution temperature and cycle the appropriate compressor stage to best match the calcu­lated load.
Determining instantaneous error:
Error = Chiller Solution Temp - Chiller Solution Setpoint.
PI Control Calculation:
The CGM calculates the Load Value by applying PI calcula­tions to the instantaneous error value. The Load Value con­sists of an integer part and a fractional part. The integer part represents which compressor stages are locked “On” and the fractional part represents the duty cycle required for the next higher compressor stage. For a 4 compressor unit, the Load Value will range from 0.0 to 4.0. For a 2 compres­sor unit, the Load Value will range from 0.0 to 2.0.
On Time Seconds = 3600 / 4 X Max Cycle Rate X (1-Load Value
Fraction) Off Time Seconds = 3600 / 4 X Max Cycle Rate X Load Value
Fraction
Where Load Value Fraction = Fractional part of the calcu­lated Load Value.
Sequence of Operation
Leaving Solution Reset (LSR)
Leaving Solution Reset (LSR) refers to the process of ad­justing the Leaving Solution Setpoint (LSS) based on an ex­ternal temperature.
When the optional Leaving Solution Reset (LSR) feature is used, the CGM will automatically adjust the LSS in re­sponse to a temperature change from one of three different temperature sensor:
1. Zone Temperature sensor
2. Outside Air Temperature sensor
3. Entering Solution Temperature sensor.
The reset temperature value (Start Temperature), to start resetting the Leaving Solution Setpoint (LSS) and the maxi­mum amount of reset to be applied to the LSS is program­mable through the Human Interface. The reset amount ap­plied to the LSS is a linear calculation between the Start Temperature and the End Temperature. After the reset amount has been calculated, it is added to the Leaving So­lution Setpoint to create the Leaving Solution Reset Setpoint. If the solution temperature is above the selected Start Temperature, the reset amount is zero. If the solution temperature is below the End Temp, the maximum amount of reset is applied. For reset type ‘None’, the amount of re­set is zero. Refer to the appropriate reset type in Table 5-1 for reset schedules.
Duty Cycle Calculations calculate the duty cycle based on the calculated Load Value Fraction:

Zone Temp Reset:
• If Zone Temperature is above the Start Temp, or if Zone Temperature Sensor has failed, calculated reset amount is zero (0).

Max Amount calculated reset amount = ———————————————————— * (ZR Start Temp - Zone Temp) ( ZR Start Temp - ZR End Temp )
Outside Air Temp Reset
• If Outside Air Temperature is above the Start Temp, or if Outside Air Temperature Sensor has failed, calculated reset amount is zero (0 ).
• If Outside Air Temperature is equal or below the End Temp, calculated reset amount is equal to selected Max Amount.
• If Outside Air Temperature is between the Start Temp and the End Temp,

• If (EST - LST) is above the Start Temp, or if ither Entering Solution or Leaving Temperature Sensor has failed, calculated reset amount is zero (0).
• If (EST - LST) is equal or below the End Temp, calculated reset amount is equal to selected Max Amount.

Sequence of Operation
Lead/Lag (Standard)
When Lead-Lag is enabled, for each capacity add request, the CGM will begin sequencing the compressors “On” that have:
a. the least number of starts; or,
b. the least run time (if number of starts are equal)
At each capacity subtract request, the CGM will begin se­quencing the compressors “Off” that have:
a. the most run time; or,
b. the least number of starts (if more than one
compressor has the same run time)
If a compressor is locked out for any reason when a capac­ity add request occurs, the next available compressor which meets the specified criteria will be started.
If a compressor can not be turned “Off” due to the minimum “On Time”, the next compressor which meets the specified criteria will be turned “Off”.
On dual circuit units, as the first two capacity add requests are initiated, one compressor on each circuit will start be­fore any additional compressors on any circuit is started. When staging down from three compressor stages to two compressor stages, the CGM will turn a compressor “Off” on the circuit that has the most compressors operating.
EST - LST Start Temperature Range 4 - 19 Factory Preset = 10
When the UCM is powered up (after a power loss), or any time the compressor’s start time and run time are equal, the number one (Lead) designated compressor will be the first “On” and the number two (lag) designated compressor will be the first “Off” on single circuit units (20 - 30 Tons).
For dual circuit units (40 through 60 Tons), the “On” se­quence will be A-C-B-D and the “Off” sequence will be D-B­C-A under the previously described conditions. Refer to Fig­ure 16 for compressor locations.
Temperature
Sequence of Operation
Hot Gas Bypass (HGBP)
The Hot Gas Bypass (HGBP) option prevents compressor short cycling. The HGBP option can only be installed on cir­cuit #1. With HGBP installed and enabled, the unit will al­ways stage the circuit #1 compressors “On” first, if operable and stage them “Off” last. Hot Gas Bypass is never initiated when staging compressors “On” (adding capacity), only when staging compressors “Off”.
HGBP is initiated when the last compressor on circuit #1 is operating, and the capacity control algorithm generates a subtract command.
Sequence of Operation
Condenser Fan Control
The CGM condenser fan control logic is dependent on the number of compressors operating per circuit and the satu­rated condensing temperature. Fan logic is not initiated until the low ambient start time has elapsed.
The Lead/Lag function is ignored (treated as disabled) when the Hot Gas Bypass option is installed and enabled.
The condenser fan contactors, located in the unit control panel, initiate fan operation when energized. Refer to Fig­ure 15 for the condenser fan locations and fan contactor designators.

Low Ambient Dampers
Low Ambient Dampers are available as a factory installed option or can be field-installed. Dampers are used to extend
the operation of these units from the standard operational temperatures to a minimum of 0oF without hot gas bypass
o
or 10
F with hot gas bypass. (These values apply when wind speed across the condenser coil is less than 5 m.p.h.). If typical wind speeds are higher than 5 m.p.h., a wind screen around the unit may be required. By restricting the airflow across the condenser coils, saturated condensing temperatures can be maintained as the ambient tempera­tures change.
The low ambient damper actuator controls damper modula­tion for each refrigerant circuit in response to saturated con­densing temperature.
Chilled Water Circulating Pump
Once the system has been filled, complete the following chilled water system start-up procedures.
1. Turn the 115 volt control circuit switch 1S1 and the 24
volt control circuit switch 1S70 located in the unit control panel to the “Off” position.
2. Turn the main power disconnect switch and the control
circuit disconnect switch (5S1), for the solution pump, to the “On” position.
3. Close the main power disconnect switch or circuit protec-
tor switch that provides the supply power to the unit’s ter­minal block 1TB1 or the unit mounted disconnect switch 1S14. The unit mounted disconnect switch (1S14), if ap­plicable, must be closed.
4. Turn the 24 volt control circuit switch 1S70 located in the
unit control panel to the “On” position.
Note: To prevent the compressors from starting, leave the 115 volt control circuit switch “Off”.
5. Open the Human Interface access door, located in the
unit control panel, and press the SERVICE MODE key to display the first service screen. Refer to the latest edition of the Trouble Shooting Guide for the SERVICE TEST screens and programming instructions.

WARNING
Rotating Components!
During installation, testing, servicing and troubleshoot­ing of this product it may be necessary to measure the speed of rotating components. Have a qualified or li­censed service individual who has been properly trained in handling exposed rotating components, per­form these tasks. Failure to follow all safety precau­tions when exposed to rotating components could re­sult in death or serious injury.
7. Press the TEST START key to start the test. Remember that the delay designated in step 7 must elapse before the pump will begin to operate.
Note: Pump operation is dependent upon proper solution flow proving switch operation. Please see section titled "Loss-Of Flow Protection: under General Information for details.
8. To balance the flow through the evaporator, adjust the flow rates between the minimum and maximum values given in Table 9. Flow rates above or below these values can cause equipment damage or improper unit opera­tion.
9. Check the flow device (if applicable) on the evaporator outlet piping to ensure it opens and closes properly.
10. Measure the evaporator water pressure drop at the sys­tem pressure gauge(s). Compare the readings to the pressure drop values given in Figure 13.
Note: Evaporator pressure drop is an approximation and is to be used as a tool to estimate flow rate and as an aid to waterside system piping design. If an accurate measurement of flow is required, a flow meter must be installed in the system.
Ethylene Glycol Adjustment Factor
The addition of ethylene glycol to the chilled water system reduces unit capacity. To determine the pressure drop of a glycol solution system, obtain the pressure drop adjustment factor from the chart in Figure 14 and multiply it times the pressure drop of a water system without glycol, i.e:
Glycol sP = H

Compressor Start-Up
1. Ensure that the main power disconnect switch and the control power disconnect switch for the “System Solution Pump” is “On”.
2. Before closing the main power disconnect switch for the unit, ensure that the compressor discharge service valve and the liquid line service valve for each circuit is back seated.
CAUTION
Compressor Damage!
Do not allow liquid refrigerant to enter the suction line. Excessive liquid accumulation in the liquid lines may result in compressor damage.
Compressor service valves must be fully opened before start-up (suction, discharge, liquid line, and oil line).
Failure to fully open valves prior to start-up may cause com­pressor failure due to lack of refrigerant and/or oil flow.
3. Remove the protective plastic coverings that shipped over the compressors.
4. Check the compressor oil levels. The oil level in each manifolded set of compressor sight glasses should be equally 1/2 to 3/4 full when they are “Off”.
5. Check the condenser coils. They should be clean and the fins should be straight. Straighten any bent coil fins with an appropriate sized fin comb.

c. The amount of protection the compressor is
receiving against flooding or overheating.
The recommended range for superheat is 10 to 16 degrees at the evaporator. Systems operating with less than 10 de­grees of superheat:
a. Could cause serious compressor damage due to
refrigerant floodback.
b. Removes working surface from the evaporator
normally used for heat transfer.
Systems operating with superheat in excess of 16 degrees:
a. Could cause excessive compressor cycling on
internal winding thermostat which leads to compressor motor failure.
b. Lowers the efficiency of the evaporator by reducing
the heat transfer capability.
Measuring Superheat
a. Measure the suction pressure at the suction line
gauge access port located near the compressor.
Figure 16
Typical Compressor Locations
b. Using a Refrigerant / Temperature chart, convert the
pressure reading to a corresponding saturated vapor temperature.
c. Measured the suction line temperature as close to
the expansion valve bulb, as possible.
d. Subtract the saturated vapor temperature obtained in
step b from the actual suction line temperature obtained in step c. The difference between the two temperatures is known as “superheat”.
Note: When adjusting superheat, recheck the system subcooling before shutting the system “Off”.
7. Once the checks and adjustments for the operating cir­cuit has been completed, check and record the:
ambient temperature; compressor oil level (each circuit); compressor suction and discharge pressures (each
circuit);
superheat and subcooling (each circuit);
Record this data on an “operator’s maintenance log” shown in Table 11.

System Start-Up
8. Press the STOP key at the Human Interface Module in the unit control panel to stop the system operation.
9. Repeat steps 1 through 8 for the number 2 refrigeration circuit.
10. After shutting the system off, check the compressor’s oil’s appearance. Discoloration of the oil indicates that an abnormal condition has occurred. If the oil is dark and smells burnt, it has overheated because of: compressor is operating at extremely high condensing temperatures; high superheat; a compressor mechanical failure; or, oc­currence of a motor burnout.
If the oil is black and contains metal flakes, a mechanical failure has occurred. This symptom is often accompanied by a high compressor amperage draw.
If a motor burnout is suspected, use an acid test kit to check the condition of the oil. Test results will indicate an acid level exceeding 0.05 mg KOH/g if a burnout oc­curred.
Compressor Oil
The scroll compressor uses tution. The appropriate oil charge for a 9 and 10 Ton scroll compressor is 8.5 pints. For a 14 and 15 Ton scroll com­pressor, use 13.8 pints.

C60 67.0 *The listed refrigerant charge is for pounds per circuit.
Compressor Crankcase Heaters
Each compressor is equipped with a crankcase heater and is controlled by a 600 volt auxiliary switch on the compres­sor contactor. The proper operation of the crankcase heater is important to maintain an elevated compressor oil tem­perature during the "Off" cycle to reduce oil foaming during compressor starts.
When the compressor starts, the sudden reduction in crank­case pressure causes the liquid refrigerant to boil rapidly causing the oil to foam. This condition could damage com­pressor bearings dur to reduced lubrication and could cause compressor mechanical failures.
When power has been "Off" for an extended period, allow the crankcase heater to operate a minimum of 8 hours be­fore starting the unit.
Low Ambient Damper Adjustment
(Factory or Field Installed)
When a unit is ordered with the low ambient option (i.e., a “W” in the miscellaneous digit of the model number), a damper is factory installed over the lead condenser fan for each refrigeration circuit. Refer to the appropriate unit illus­trated in Figure 15 for the damper locations.
For field installation, mount the dampers over the con­denser fans at the locations shown in Figure 15 and con­nect the actuator, controller, and sensor for each circuit. (Refer to the Installation Instructions provided with each low ambient damper kit.)
The UCM has a factory default setpoint of 90 point can be adjusted using the Human Interface program­ming procedures.
Inspect the damper blades for proper alignment and opera­tion. Dampers should be in the closed position during the “Off” cycle. If adjustment is required;

Service & Maintenance
Compressor Operational Sounds
Because of the scroll compressor design, it emits a higher frequency tone (sound) than a reciprocating compressor. It is designed to accommodate liquids, both oil and refriger­ant, without causing compressor damage. The following dis­cussion describes some of the operational sounds that dif­ferentiate it from those typically associated with a recipro­cating compressor. These sounds do not affect the opera­tion or reliability of the compressor.
At Shutdown:
When a scroll compressor shuts down, the gas within the scroll expands and causes momentary reverse rotation until the discharge check valve closes. This results in a “flutter” type sound.
At Low Ambient Start-Up
When the compressor starts up under low ambient condi­tions, the initial flow rate of the compressor is low due to the low condensing pressure. This causes a low differential across the thermal expansion valve that limits its capacity. Under these conditions, it is not unusual to hear the com­pressor rattle until the suction pressure climbs and the flow rate increases.
Scroll Compressor Replacement
Table 12 lists the specific compressor electrical data and the circuit breaker operating ranges.
The scroll compressor uses tution. The appropriate oil charge for a 9 and 10 Ton scroll compressor is 8.5 pints. For a 14 and 15 Ton scroll com­pressor, use 13.8 pints.
Note: Do Not release refrigerant to the atmosphere! If adding or removing refrigerant is required, the service technician must comply with all Federal, State and local laws. Refer to general service bulletin MSCU-SB-1 (latest edition).
Note: Refrigerant oil is detrimental to some roofing materials. Care must be taken to protect the roof from oil leaks or spills.

Suction Line Filter/Drier Installation
The compressor manifold system was purposely designed to provide proper oil return to each compressors. The refrig­erant manifolded system must not be modified in any way.
Note: Altering the manifold piping may cause oil return problems and compressor failure.
Should a compressor replacement become necessary and a suction line filter drier is to be installed, install it a mini­mum of 18 inches upstream of the oil separator tee. Refer to the illustration in Figure 18.
Anytime a compressor is replaced, the oil for each com­pressor within the manifolded set must be replaced.

Service & Maintenance
Coil Cleaning
Regular coil maintenance, including annual cleaning, en­hances the unit’s operating efficiency by minimizing:
compressor head pressure and amperage draw; evaporator water carryover; fan brake horsepower, due to increase static pressure
losses;
airflow reduction.
At least once each year, or more often if the unit is located in a “dirty” environment, clean the evaporator and con­denser coils using the instructions outlined below. Be sure to follow these instructions as closely as possible to avoid damaging the coils.
To clean refrigerant coils, use a soft brush and a sprayer (either a garden pump-up type or a high-pressure sprayer). A high-quality detergent is also required; suggested brands include “SPREX A.C.”, “OAKITE 161”, “OAKITE 166” and “COILOX”. If the detergent selected is strongly alkaline (ph value exceeds 8.5), add an inhibitor.
WARNING
Hazardous Chemicals!
Coil cleaning agents can be either acidic or highly alka­line. Handle chemical carefully. Proper handling should include goggles or face shield, chemical resistant gloves, boots, apron or suit as required. For personal safety refer to the cleaning agent manufacturer’s Mate­rials Safety Data Sheet and follow all recommended safe handling practices. Failure to follow all safety in­structions could result in death or serious injury.
5. Pour the cleaning solution into the sprayer. If a high-pres­sure sprayer is used:
a. do not allow sprayer pressure to exceed 600 psi.
b. the minimum nozzle spray angle is 15 degrees.
c. maintain a minimum clearance of 6" between the
sprayer nozzle and the coil.
d. spray the solution perpendicular (at 90 degrees) to
the coil face.
6. Spray the leaving-airflow side of the coil first; then spray the opposite side of the coil. Allow the cleaning solution to stand on the coil for five minutes.
7. Rinse both sides of the coil with cool, clean water.
8. Inspect both sides of the coil; if it still appears to be dirty, repeat Steps 6 and 7. Do not spray cleaner in heavy winds to prevent overspray from possible contacting other building components and other adjacent objects such as automobiles etc. Flush coil cleaners from all sur­faces thoroughly to prevent possible damage.
9. Reinstall all of the components and panels removed in Step 1 and any protective covers installed in step 2.
10. Restore the unit to it’s operational status and check sys­tem operation.
System operation
[ ] Close the main power disconnect switch for the unit and
all system support equipment. Turn all system control cir­cuit switches to the “On” position.
1. Remove enough panels from the unit to gain access to the coil.
2. Protect all electrical devices such as motors and control­lers from any over spray.
3. Straighten any bent coil fins with a fin comb.
4. Mix the detergent with water according to the manufacturer’s instructions. If desired, heat the solution
o
to 150
F maximum to improve its cleansing capability.
CAUTION
Compressor Damage! Contains Refrigerant!
Do not allow liquid refrigerant to enter the suction line. Excessive liquid accumulation in the liquid lines may result in compressor damage.
Do not heat the detergent-and-water solution above
o
F. Hot liquids sprayed on the exterior of the coil
150 will raise the coil’s internal pressure and may cause it to burst.
Note: Refrigerant oil is detrimental to some roofing materials. Care must be taken to protect the roof from oil leaks or spills.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage! Rotating Parts!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote discon­nects before servicing. Follow proper lockout/tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvert­ently energized. Failure to disconnect power before ser­vicing could result in death or serious injury.
[ ] With the unit running, check and record the:
ambient temperature; compressor oil level (each circuit); compressor suction and discharge pressures (each
circuit);
superheat and Subcooling (each circuit);
Record this data on an “operator’s maintenance log” similar to the one illustrated in the “Final Setup” section of this manual. If the operating pressures indicate a re­frigerant shortage, measure the system Superheat and system Subcooling. For guidelines, refer to the “system Start-Up” section.
Note: Do Not release refrigerant to the atmosphere! If adding or removing refrigerant is required, the service technician must comply with all federal, state and local laws. Refer to general service bulletin MSCU-SB-1 (latest edition).
