Introduction

Read this manual thoroughly before operating or servicing
this unit.

Warnings, Cautions, and Notices

Safety advisories appear throughout this manual as
required. Your personal safety and the proper operation of
this machine depend upon the strict observance of these
precautions.

The three types of advisories are defined as follows:

NOTICE

Important Environmental Concerns

Scientific research has shown that certain man-made
chemicals can affect the earth’s naturally occurring
stratospheric ozone layer when released to the
atmosphere. In particular, several of the identified
chemicals that may affect the ozone layer are refrigerants
that contain Chlorine, Fluorine and Carbon (CFCs) and
those containing Hydrogen, Chlorine, Fluorine and
Carbon (HCFCs). Not all refrigerants containing these
compounds have the same potential impact to the
environment. Trane advocates the responsible handli ng of
all refrigerants-including industry replacements for CFCs
and HCFCs such as saturated or unsaturated HFCs and
HCFCs.

Important Responsible Refrigerant
Practices

Trane believes that responsible refrigerant practices are
important to the environment, our customers, and the air
conditioning industry. All technicians who handle
refrigerants must be certified according to local rules. For
the USA, the Federal Clean Air Act (Section 608) sets forth
the requirements for handling, reclaiming, recovering and
recycling of certain refrigerants and the equipment that is
used in these service procedures. In addition, some states
or municipalities may have additional requirements that
must also be adhered to for responsible management of
refrigerants. Know the applicable laws and follow them.

Introduction

This technical guide is written to provide a complete and
comprehensive procedure for the installation of Ice Bank®
Energy Storage tanks. It is not the intent of this guide to
exclude sound and proven methods of installation by
contractors who have, through experience, developed an
efficient method of installation expertise.

All work must be performed in a

ccordance with LOCAL,
STATE and NATIONAL codes. After reading this manual, if
any questions arise, please call your local representative
or CALMAC® Applications Engineering Department at
[phone] or e-mail [e-mail].

1. GENERAL

a. Module Description. Th

e storage module
consists of a plastic tank full of water (ice in the charged
state) in which a specially designed heat exchanger is
immersed. The heat exchanger consists of a coiled mat of
plastic tubes, which are spaced evenly throughout the
entire volume of water. The unique spiral counterflow
configuration allows ice to build up evenly throughout the
tank without tank damage. An empty space is provided
above the heat exchanger for expansion of water during
freezing.

The complete model number can be found on the rating
plate located on the tank cover adjacent to the
connections.

c. Damage in Transit. Up

on receipt of the shipment
of this equipment, inspect all tanks and packages for
external damage. If external damage is noted, mark the

number of damaged items and the nature of the damage
on the delivering carrier’s waybill and request the services
of an inspector.

Since all materials are sold FOB factory, it is the
responsibili

ty of the consignee to file claims with the
delivering carrier for equipment received in damaged
condition. Normally, claims for any and all damages
should be filed with the freight company within five
working days of the receipt of shipment.

are quite heavy. Consequently the structure supporting
the tanks must be capable of bearing this weight. Refer to

Table 1 for the filled weight of each

tank model and
required floor loading strength. The plastic bottom of the
tank must be level (¼ inch /6 mm) over the tank diameter
and supported over its entire area. For all “C” Model tanks
(See Section

Step ii) the adjoining tanks must be on a

continuous level surface.

b. Partial Burial. Partiall

y burying the

tanks in the
ground is permissible as long as one foot of the tank
protrudes above ground level. The tanks must be installed
on a concrete pad which is level and completely supports
the bottom of the tank. (See Specifications for Partially

3. TANK INSTALLATION

a. Insu

lation. All tank

models are insulated at the
factory and are shipped with integral insulated bases
installed.

b. Moving

the Tanks. The tanks are heavy even

when empty and two people, with help of a forklift or
crane, are generally required to move them. All standard

rigging procedures and safety rules for lifting heavy
objects should be followed at all times even if not
detailed in this manual.

i. “A” M

odel Tanks. All have forklift slots

incorporated into their bases to facilitate moving the
tanks. Forklifts must have forks or extensions at least 72
inches (1830 mm) in length. Forklift operators must take
care not to ram the tanks with their forks when picking the
tanks up. This type of handling could puncture or
otherwise damage the tanks.

When using a crane to move an “A”

Model tank into
position put two 30 foot (9 m) long, 3-inch (75 mm) wide
“choker” straps — each 180º apart — around the
midsection of the tanks. As the crane starts to lift, the
straps will slide up about a foot (300 mm), tighten around
the tank, grip and then hold the tank. The tank can then be
maneuvered into position.

ii. “C” Model

Tanks. These tanks consist of one,

two or three individual modules which have main headers
built into the cover. Models 1320C and 1500C tanks must
be rigged into position with a crane and a special rigging
bar available from CALMAC®. (A standard spreader bar
can be used on the Model 1190C and 1220C). When moved,
they must be lifted as a single unit. Each module is
equipped with 2 hoist rings. Normally, one rigging bar is
shipped with each job. Lifting hooks are provided and
packaged separately.

Insert the provided clevis pins through the

ate holes in the rigging bar, capturing the hooks

ropri

app
between the steel channels (

Table 2). Lock the clevis pins in place by

Figure 2, Figure 3 and

inserting a cotter
pin. Lifting cables should be attached to the rigging bar as
shown in

Figure 2 and Figure 3 in accordance with Table 2.

The rigging bar should be placed on top of the ice

and the lifting hooks secured to the tank hoist

rings.

If either the Model 1320C or Model 1500C Ice Bank

units must b

e temporarily set down, prior to its final
placement, it should be placed on a clean, flat and
reasonably level surface.

4. PLUMBING PROCEDURES

a. General.

There is no preferred inlet or outlet

header connection to the tank.

Flange manufacturers recommend that the 4 inch

ange bo

fl

lts with washers be torqued to no more than 60
ft. lbs (81.4 Nm) and standard tightening pattern be used to
prevent leaks or damage to the flanges.

” Model Tanks. The co

i. “A

nnections on Model

‘A’ tanks are 2" flanges.

Note: The standard polyethylene heat exchanger is

limited to 90 Psi (620 kPa) internal pressure.
(Special orders to 125 Psi/862 kPa.) If system
pressures exceed these limits, a heat exchanger
must be used to isolate the storage tanks from the
higher pressure. A pressure relief valve must also
be installed in the system to assure that pressure
does not exceed 90 Psi (620 kPa) for standard heat
exchangers and 125 Psi (862 kPa) for special order
heat exchangers.

ii. “C” Model Tanks. External pipes must be

located in such a way that the internal header pipes are not
pulled from their normal, at rest position. Using flange
bolts to pull tank flanges to system piping may cause
internal damage.

Models 1320C and 1500C have 4 inch flange

nnections. Model 1190C tanks can be bolted directly to

co
each other at the 4 inch flange connection. See
and

Introduction

c. Hydrostatic Testing. Hydrostatic tests are

normally done on all piping systems. If a hydrostatic test
is specified before coolant is put in the system, the tanks
should not be part of this test and should be valved off.
This is because if pure water is pumped into the heat
exchanger it cannot be removed. After the successful
completion of the test, drain the system and add premixed
glycol to the system as described in Section IV.D.2.

solution and remove air. Then increase air pressure in the
expansion tank up to the hydrostatic test pressure
(maximum 150 Psi/1034 kPa). After 30 minutes close

off all valves on each tank and let sit for the
prescribed period of time. Monitor system pressure
as tank valves are sequentially opened.

tank are recommended to alert operators of a shortage of
liquid in the system. Since these systems contain a
valuable heat transfer solution, steps should be taken to
prevent the loss of the liquid. The tank farm as a whole
should be capable of isolation by valves. A twostep alarm,
triggered by either low liquid level in the expansion tank or
low pressure at the high point of the building, should be
installed. The first level of alarm is to alert the operator of
routine requirements for the system’s fluid. The second

If the tank heat exchangers have been filled with water,
perhaps due to a hydrostatic test or system flush (Section
IV.C.), an adjustment must be made to the concentration
and/or quantity of coolant added to the

Alternatively, the concent

In all large systems there should be a minimum two inch

system pump off, the vents can be opened and the fill
pump can be started again. After repeating this a few times
and when most of the air is eliminated, open the valves
and run the system pump at full flow. At this point the
system’s air eliminator should be able to remove the final
amounts of air. When all of the air is out, run the fill pump
until the system’s expansion tank is at the proper level and
the system is at its proper working pressure (usually 5 psi

Use a refractometer or equivalent to test the solution’s

Installation Manual for MIXAIR Ice Bank® tanks #IB- 158.)

iv. Add W

ater Treatment. Pour in the initial
treatment of biocide into the tank water upon
filling, into the inspection port. This will help to control

biological growth. CALMAC® recommends a 20% Tetrakis
hydroxymethyl phosphonium sulfate solution such as
Aquacar PS20. All tank models require 16 oz. of biocide
solution per tank.

The CAS number is 555-66-30-8

Note: The cove

r must always be in place whenever the
tank is in operation in order to prevent floating of
the heat exchanger. You are now ready to freeze the
tank(s)!

e. Insu

lation. All piping mu

st be insulated to prevent
condensate dripping as well as exposure to sunlight (to
prevent ultra-violet degradation). Since these liquid lines
run cooler than most chilled water systems the thickness
of the insulation may need to be slightly greater than
normal to avoid condensation.

5. RECOMMENDED OPERAT

ING TEMPERATURES

The storage system will operate most efficiently if the
chiller controls are set to terminate charging at the highest
return temperature that will charge the tanks in the
available hours. In most cases, with a 6ºF (-14.4°C)
temperature difference across the chiller, the average
leaving chilled coolant temperature will be approximately
25ºF (-3.9°C) with a 31ºF (-0.6°C) return. Most commonly,

if the chiller unit is set to turn off when the coolant
temperature leaving the tank reaches 28ºF (-2.2°C)
(See project engineers specification for exact
temperature.) the tanks will be completely charged.

If the chiller is allowed to run at lower conditions than
required the free water above the heat exchanger may
freeze causing an “ice cap”. This ice cap will in turn cause
a shortage of water during discharge, thereby impairing
the discharge performance and wasting energy.

6. REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE

Note: The cove

r must always be in plac

e whenever the
tank contains ice in order to prevent floating of the
heat exchanger.

a. Routine Maintenance.

i. Annually. The water

/ice level in the tanks

should be checked at least once a year. (Check Ice Bank®

Ice Storage Operation and Maintenance Manual #IB­SVX147*-EN for complete details). When the tanks are
100% frozen, usually first thing in the morning, there
should be approximately 4 to 7 inches (10 to 15 cm) of
water above the submerged insulation depending on the
tank model. The water level should be within ½ inch (1.27
cm) of the bottom of the tank covers. Add water if this is not
the case. (If the tanks are not fully frozen, adding water
may cause the tanks to overflow when fully charged, which
will not hurt the tanks however, it may cause flooding of
the area).

At the end of the cooling season, you should fully charge
the tanks and leave

them frozen until the start of your next

air-conditioning season.

d with

If the tank is equippe

an inventory meter sensor,
altering the water level may require re-calibration of the
meter. Refer to “Ice Inventory Meter Installation and
Operation Manual”, #IB-153.

The coolant should be checked annually for proper

freeze protection. This service should be

available from the glycol manufacturer.

ii. Tank Water Tr

eatment. Generally, if tanks are

kept at least partially frozen year round, provide
retreatment with biocide as needed. However, if tanks are
not kept frozen year round, retreatment may be required
more often and the tanks should be checked for slime or
odor seasonally.

b. Warranty Repairs. Auth

orization for in-warranty
field repairs must be obtained in writing from CALMAC®
before any repairs are attempted.
