Return Refrigerant to Normal Operating Conditions

1.

Be sure that the chiller vessel that was opened has been

 

evacuated.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.

Turn on chiller water pumps.

 

 

 

 

 

3.

Open valves 1a, 1b, and 3.

Crack open valve 5, gradually increasing pressure in the

 

evacuated chiller vessel to 60 psig (414 kPa), [30 psig

 

(207 kPa)]. Feed refrigerant slowly to prevent tube

 

freeze-up.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5.

DISTILLING THE REFRIGERANT

1. Transfer the refrigerant from the chiller to the pumpout storage tank as described in the Transfer the Refrigerant from Chiller to Pumpout Storage Tank section.

2. Equalize the refrigerant pressure.

a. Turn on chiller water pumps and monitor chiller pressures.

b. Close pumpout and storage tank valves 2, 4, 5, 8, and 10, and close chiller charging valve 7; open chiller iso- lation valve 11 and any other chiller isolation valves, if present.

c. Open pumpout and storage tank valves 3 and 6; open chiller valves 1a and 1b.

e. Open valve 5 fully after the chiller pressure rises above the freezing point of the refrigerant. Let the storage tank and chiller pressure equalize.

3. Transfer remaining refrigerant. a. Close valve 3.

b. Open valve 2.

MAINTENANCE

Periodic maintenance is necessary to keep all components functioning as designed. A maintenance log is recom- mended to ensure a proper maintenance schedule is followed.
