Installation and service of this equipment should be done only by qualified personnel who have been specially-trained in the installation of air-conditioning equipment and who are wearing appropriate, OSHA-approved PPE.
WARNING! Risk of improper wire sizing/rating and loose electrical connections. Can cause overheated wire and electrical connection terminals resulting in smoke, fire, equipment and building damage, injury or death. Use correctly sized copper wire only and verify that all electrical connections are tight before turning power On. Check all electrical connections periodically and tighten as necessary.
WARNING! Risk improper drive-belt removal. Can cause the spring-loaded motor base to slam down suddenly causing serious injury to hands and fingers from crushing and pinching. Read the directions in this manual and on the unit instruction labels, keep hands and fingers away from pinch points, and wear appropriate, OSHA-approved PPE when performing maintenance on the belts, motors or pulleys. Follow all directions when servicing the unit.
WARNING! Risk of explosive discharge of high-pressure refrigerant. Can cause serious injury. Neutral and service ports on the rotalock valve do not have a valve core. Front-seat the service valves and relieve pressure from the compressor before loosening a part or a component attached to the service valve. Follow local codes to properly reclaim refrigerant.
CAUTION: Risk of excessive refrigerant line pressure. Can cause tubing and component rupture resulting in equipment damage and personal injury. Do not close off the refrigerant-line isolation valve for repairs unless a pressure-relief valve is field- installed in the line between the isolation valve and the check valve. The pressure-relief valve must be rated 5% to 10% higher than the system-design pressure. An increase in ambient temperature can cause the pressure of the isolated refrigerant to rise and exceed the system-design pressure rating (marked on the unit nameplate).

NOTICE
CAUTION: Risk of handling heavy unit and component parts. Can cause injury and equipment damage. Use OSHA-recommended safe lifting techniques and/or lifting equipment rated for the weight of the unit.
CAUTION: Risk of smoke generation. Can cause fire suppression and alarm system activation, resulting in injury during building evacuation and mobilization of emergency fire and rescue services. Start-up operation of optional electric reheat elements can create smoke or fumes that can activate the facility alarm and fire suppression system. Prepare and take appropriate steps to manage this possibility. Activating reheat during initial start-up may burn off particulates from electric reheat elements. Before beginning initial start-up checks, make certain that unit was installed according to the instructions in this manual. All exterior panels must be in place.
CAUTION: Risk of exposure to harmful noise levels. Can cause hearing injury or loss. Depending on the installation and operating conditions, a sound pressure level greater than 70dB(A) may arise. Take appropriate technical safety measures. Operating personnel must wear appropriate, OSHA-approved PPE and observe all appropriate hearing-protection safety requirements.
Risk of improper power-supply connection. Can cause equipment damage and loss of warranty coverage.
Prior to connecting any equipment to a main or alternate power source (for example: back-up generator systems) for start-up, commissioning, testing, or normal operation, ensure that these sources are correctly adjusted to the nameplate voltage and frequency of all equipment to be connected. In general, power-source voltages should be stabilized and regulated to within ±10% of the load nameplate nominal voltage. Also, ensure that no three-phase sources are single-phased at any time.
NOTICE
NOTICE
Risk of oil contamination with water. Can cause equipment damage.
Liebert®DS systems require the use of POE (polyolester) oil. POE oil absorbs water at a much faster rate when exposed to air than previously used oils. Because water is the enemy of a reliable refrigeration system, extreme care must be used when opening systems during installation or service. If water is absorbed into the POE oil, it will not be easily removed and will not be removed through the normal evacuation process. If the oil is too wet, it may require an oil change. POE oils also have a property that makes them act as a solvent in a refrigeration system. Maintaining system cleanliness is extremely important because the oil will tend to bring any foreign matter back to the compressor.
Risk of improper refrigerant charging. Can cause equipment damage.
Refrigerant charge must be weighed into air-cooled compressorized systems before they are started. Starting scroll and digital scroll compressors without proper refrigerant charging can cause the compressors to operate at less than 5°F (–15°C) evaporator temperature and at less than 20psig (138kPa). Operation for extended periods at less than 20psig (138kPa) can cause premature compressor failure.

NOTICE
NOTICE
Risk of clogged or leaking drain lines and leaking water-supply lines. Can cause equipment and building damage.
This unit requires a water drain connection. Drain lines must be inspected at start-up and periodically, and maintenance must be performed to ensure that drain water runs freely through the drain system and that lines are clear and free of obstructions and in good condition with no visible sign of damage or leaks. This unit may also require an external water supply to operate.
Improper installation, application and service practices can result in water leakage from the unit. Water leakage can result in catastrophic and expensive building and equipment damage and loss of critical data center equipment.
Do not locate unit directly above any equipment that could sustain water damage.
We recommend installing a monitored fluid-detection system to immediately discover and report coolant-fluid system and condensate drain-line leaks.
Risk of piping-system corrosion and freezing fluids. Can cause leaks resulting in equipment and expensive building damage. Cooling coils, heat exchangers and piping systems are at high risk of freezing and premature corrosion. Fluids in these systems must contain an inhibitor to prevent premature corrosion.
The system coolant fluid must be analyzed by a competent fluid-treatment specialist before start up to establish the inhibitor level and evaluated at regularly scheduled intervals throughout the life of the system to determine the pattern of inhibitor depletion. The fluid complexity and variations of required treatment programs make it extremely important to obtain the advice of a competent and experienced fluid-treatment specialist and follow a regularly scheduled coolant-fluid system-maintenance program.
Fluid chemistry varies greatly as do the required additives, called inhibitors, that reduce the corrosive effect of the fluids on the piping systems and components.
The chemistry of the coolant fluid used must be considered, because some sources may contain corrosive elements that reduce the effectiveness of the inhibited formulation. Sediment deposits prevent the formation of a protective oxide layer on the inside of the coolant system components and piping. The coolant fluid must be treated and circulating through the system continuously to prevent the buildup of deposits and/or growth of bacteria. Proper inhibitor maintenance must be performed to prevent corrosion of the system.
Consult fluid manufacturer for testing and maintenance of inhibitors.
Commercial-grade coolant fluid is generally less corrosive to the common metals of construction than water itself. It will, however, assume the corrosivity of the coolant fluid from which it is prepared and may become increasingly corrosive with use if not properly inhibited.
Vertiv recommends installing a monitored fluid-detection system that is wired to activate the automatic­closure of field-installed coolant-fluid supply and return shut-off valves to reduce the amount of coolant-fluid leakage and consequential equipment and building damage. The shut-off valves must be sized to close-off against the maximum coolant-fluid system pressure in case of a catastrophic fluid leak.

NOTICE
Risk of frozen pipes and corrosion from improper coolant mixture. Can cause water leaks resulting in equipment and building damage.
When the cooling unit or piping may be exposed to freezing temperatures, charge the system with the proper percentage of glycol and water for the coldest design ambient temperature. Automotive antifreeze is unacceptable and must NOT be used in any glycol fluid system. Use only HVAC glycol solution that meets the requirements of recommended industry practices. Do not use galvanized pipe.
Risk of a catastrophic water circuit rupture. Can cause expensive building and equipment damage.
Install an overflow drain pan under the unit with a monitored leak detection system in the pan and shutoff valves in the supply and return water lines that automatically close if water is detected by the leak detection system. The shutoff valves should be spring return and must be rated for a close-off pressure that is the same as or higher than the supply water pressure. If it is not possible to install an overflow drain pan, then a monitored leak detection system should be installed in the base of the unit or under the unit to actuate the shutoff valves immediately on a leak detection signal.
The overflow drain pan should have a drain line connected to it that flows to a floor drain or maintenance sink in case of a shutoff valve or leak detection system malfunction.
Risk of no-flow condition. Can cause equipment damage. Do not leave the water/coolant fluid-supply circuit in a no-flow condition. Idle fluid allows the collection of sediment that prevents the formation of a protective oxide layer on the inside of tubes. Keep unit switched On and water/coolant fluid-supply circuit system operating continuously.
NOTICE
NOTICE
NOTICE
Risk of improper water supply. Can reduce humidifier efficiency or obstruct humidifier plumbing.
Do not use a hot water source. It will cause deposits that will eventually block the fill-valve opening.
Risk of water backing up in the drain line. Leaking and overflowing water can cause equipment and building damage.
Do not install an external trap in the drain line. This line already has a factory-installed trap inside the cabinet. Installation of a second trap will prevent drain-water flow and will cause the water to overflow the drain pan.
Sagging condensate drain lines may inadvertently create an external trap.
Risk of doorway/hallway interference. Can cause unit and/or structure damage. The unit may be too large to fit through a doorway or hallway while on the skid. Measure the unit and passageway dimensions, and refer to the installation plans prior to moving the unit to verify clearances.

NOTICE
Risk of damage from forklift. Can cause unit damage. Keep tines of the forklift level and at a height suitable to fit below the skid and/or unit to prevent exterior and/or underside damage.
NOTICE
Risk of improper storage. Can cause unit damage.
Keep the unit upright, indoors and protected from dampness, freezing temperatures and contact damage.
NOTE: The Liebert® indoor cooling unit has a factory-installed, high-pressure safety switch in the high-side refrigerant circuit. Each refrigerant receiver contains a fusible plug for fire-safety purposes. Consult your local building code to determine whether the refrigerant piping will require additional, field-provided pressure-relief devices.

3 PRE-INSTALLATION PREPARATIONANDGUIDELINES
NOTE: Before installing unit, determine whether any building alterations are required to run piping, wiring and duct work. Follow all unit dimensional drawings and refer to the submittal engineering dimensional drawings of individual units for proper clearances.
Refer to DS Model Number Digit Definitions on page9, and submittal drawings to determine the type of system being installed and anticipate building alterations, piping and duct work needed.
The unit dimensions, pipe-connection locations, and piping schematics are described in the submittal documents included in the Submittal Drawings on page139.
Verify that the floor is level, solid and sufficient to support the unit. See Liebert DS Downflow Unit weights and
Shipping Weights—Approximate on page18 for unit weights.
Confirm that the room is properly insulated and has a sealed vapor barrier.
For proper humidity control, keep outside or fresh air to an absolute minimum (less than 5% of total air circulated in the room).
Do not install a Liebert® DS in an alcove or at the end of a long, narrow room.
Install the units as close as possible to the largest heat load.
Allow at least the minimum recommended clearances for maintenance and service. See the appropriate submittal drawings for dimensions.
We recommend installing an under-floor water detection system. Contact your Vertiv representative for information.

3.2 Air Distribution Considerations for Downflow Units

Verify that the raised floor has been properly sized for the unit’s airflow and the room is free of airflow restrictions.
Perforated floor tiles in the raised floor should ensure minimal pressure loss.
The raised floor must provide 7-1/2in. (191mm) of clearance.
A minimum of 24in. (610mm) is required to operate the fans when they are lowered with the factory-provided jacking mechanism.
Ensure that there is adequate clearance above the unit for service, such as replacing filters.
Optional plenums are available for downflow unit ducting.

3.3 Air Distribution Considerations for Upflow Units

Various configurations are available:
Front return
Rear return
Top-front supply (forward-curved blowers)
Top-rear supply (forward-curved blowers)
Top, rear, and front supply with plenum (EC fans)
For in-room applications with supply and return grilles, several feet of clearance must be maintained at the intake and discharge of the unit.
Upflow rear-return configurations use a filter box attached to the back of the unit. Allow 25in. (635mm) on one side of the unit for access to the rear-return filter box. Refer to the rear-return installation sheet, inside the rear-return filter box package.

NOTE: Follow standard practices in all duct work.

3.4 Connections and System Setup

Three-phase electrical service is required for all models. Electrical service must conform to national and local electrical codes. See equipment nameplate for details.
The unit requires a drain, which must comply with all applicable codes. See Field-installed, Gravity Fed Drain
Line Requirements on page32, for details.
Plan the routing of wiring, piping and duct work to the unit. Refer to the appropriate piping connection location drawings, piping schematics, and electrical-connection drawings for your system in Submittal Drawings on page139.
Water/glycol and GLYCOOL units utilizing a drycooler may require an optional aquastat setting. See Table 9.7
on page119, and Table 9.8 on page119, through Table 9.10 on page120, for drycooler aquastat setting guidelines. Applications with the optional stat setting require field piping to be insulated to prevent condensation.
If seismic requirements apply, consult your Vertiv representative for information about a seismic-rated floor stand.
NOTE: Seal openings around piping and electrical connection to prevent air leakage. Failure to do so could reduce the unit’s cooling performance.

3.5 Operating Conditions

The Liebert® DS must be operated in a conditioned space within the operating envelope that ASHRAE recommends for data centers. Operating the DS outside of this envelope can decrease equipment reliability. Refer to ASHRAE’s publication, “Thermal Guidelines for Data Processing Environments.”

3.5.1 Cooling, Humidification and Dehumidification

Return air to the unit must be no cooler than the ASHRAE recommendation of 68°F (20°C) DB and 40% RH or minimum WB of 54°F (12.2°C) for proper unit operation. Operating below this can decrease equipment reliability.

3.5.2 Heating

The Liebert® DS is qualified for heating-only operation at temperatures not exceeding 80°F (27°C).
