CAUTION: Risk of contact with sharp edges, splinters, and exposed fasteners. Can cause injury. Only properly trained and qualified personnel wearing appropriate, OSHA-approved PPE should attempt to move, lift, remove packaging from or prepare the unit for installation.
CAUTION: Risk of improper moving, lifting and handling. Can cause equipment damage or injury. Only properly trained and qualified personnel should work on this equipment. Condenser fan modules weigh in excess of 125 lb (56.7 kg). Use proper lifting techniques and wear appropriate, OSHA-approved PPE to avoid injury and dropping the fan module during removal. Equipment used in handling/lifting, and/or installing the fan assembly must meet OSHA requirements. Use handling/lifting equipment rated for the weight of the fan assembly. Use ladders rated for the weight of the fan assembly and technicians if used during installation. Refer to handling/lifting, and/or installation equipment operating manual for manufacturer's safety requirements and operating procedures.
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.
NOTICE
NOTICE
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).
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: backup generator systems) for startup, 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.
Risk of oil contamination with water. Can cause equipment damage.
Liebert® CRV 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.

Vertiv Liebert®CRV Installer/User Guide
NOTICE
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
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 startup 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.
NOTICE
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 very 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 the proper antifreeze and inhibitors to prevent freezing and premature coil, heat exchanger and piping corrosion. The water or water/glycol solution must be analyzed by a competent local water treatment specialist before start up to establish the inhibitor and antifreeze solution requirement and at regularly scheduled intervals throughout the life of the system to determine the pattern of inhibitor depletion.
The complexity of water/glycol solution condition problems and the variations of required treatment programs make it extremely important to obtain the advice of a competent and experienced water treatment specialist and follow a regularly scheduled coolant fluid system maintenance program.
Water chemistry varies greatly by location, 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 water used must be considered, because water from 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 water/coolant fluid must be treated and circulating through the system continuously to prevent the buildup of sediment deposits and or growth of sulfate reducing bacteria.
Proper inhibitor maintenance must be performed in order to prevent corrosion of the system. Consult glycol manufacturer for testing and maintenance of inhibitors.

NOTICE
Vertiv Liebert®CRV Installer/User Guide
Commercial ethylene glycol, when pure, is generally less corrosive to the common metals of construction than water itself. It will, however, assume the corrosivity of the water from which it is prepared and may become increasingly corrosive with use if not properly inhibited.
We recommend installing a monitored fluid detection system that is wired to activate the automatic closure of field installed coolant fluid supply and return shutoff valves to reduce the amount of coolant-fluid leakage and consequential equipment and building damage. The shutoff valves must be sized to close off against the maximum coolant fluid system pressure in case of a catastrophic fluid leak.
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.
NOTICE
NOTICE
NOTICE
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.
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.
Risk of improper water supply. Can reduce humidifier efficiency or obstruct humidifier plumbing.
Do not use completely demineralized water with this unit. The water must contain minerals for the electrode principle to work.
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 (except for 300 mm (12 in.)) Chilled water models). Installation of a second trap will prevent drain water flow and will cause the water to overflow the drain pan.
1 Importan t Safety Inst ructions
This line may contain boiling water. Use cooper or other material that is rated for handling boiling water for the drain line. 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.
NOTICE
Risk of release of hazardous substances into the environment. Can cause environmental pollution and violation of environmental regulations.
The Liebert® CRV contains substances and components hazardous for the environment (electronic components, refrigerating gases and oils). At the end of its useful life, the Liebert® CRV must be dismantled by specialized refrigerating technicians. The unit must be delivered to suitable centers specializing in the collection and disposal of equipment containing hazardous substances.
NOTE: The Liebert indoor cooling unit has a factory installed high pressure safety switch in the high side refrigerant circuit. Consult local building codes to determine whether the Liebert® MC Condensers without receivers will require field provided pressure relief devices such as a fusible plug. A pressure relief valve is provided with Liebert® Lee­Temp receivers.

2.3 Cooling Configurations and Liebert® CRV Overview

The Liebert®CRV is a precision cooling unit available in compressorized (air, water, or glycol cooled) and chilled water configurations to be installed within a row of high density computing racks in a “hotaisle-coldaisle” configuration.
Air enters the rear of the CRV from the hot aisle, is filtered, cooled and conditioned, then discharged into the cold aisle. The CRV provides all the necessary functions of a standard Thermal Management unit, including cooling, heating, humidification, dehumidification, air filtration, condensate management, temperature control, alarm monitoring and data communication. (The 300 mm [12 in.] models do not provide heating, humidification or dehumidification.) The CRV is optimized for maximum cooling capacity in a minimal footprint.
The Liebert® CRV 300 series and 600 series Thermal Management units are meant for location within a row of heat generating IT equipment racks.
The extremely energy efficient components of the CRV are managed by the Liebert® iCOM™ control system. The iCOM control monitors the environment in real time with rack inlet sensors on the cooled by the in-row CRV. The information gathered allows optimization of performance and energy efficiency.
All operations and sensor data can be reported remotely via a variety of communication protocols, providing a built-in, rack-temperature monitoring system.
The supply-air baffle directs the air leaving the CRV to the racks, maximizing its effectiveness, reducing the chance for hot spots, and improving overall system efficiency. The angle and spacing of the baffle vanes series are optimized through CFD modeling, laboratory testing and real world installations.
All service and maintenance is performed through the front and rear of the unit, including all component replacement. All piping and electrical connections are made through the top or bottom of the unit.

5 Installing in Enclosure Row

Built-in casters let you roll the Liebert® CRV into position for installation. For 300 mm units, optional stabilizers reduce the likelihood of the module tipping over. These stabilizers, shown in Figure 5.1 on the next page , must be removed before the unit is positioned in the row. Adjustable leveling feet prevent it from moving after positioning, See Adjusting Base
Supports/Leveling Feet below .
Once positioned, secure the unit to the floor or to an adjacent cabinet.
Adjustable brackets for attaching the unit to an adjacent cabinet are included with each unit. A bracket to attach the unit to the floor is available from your Vertiv representative.
