Before you start daily operation of the chiller, you need to perform scheduled preventative maintenance. Necessary main- tenance is describe in the Maintenance section of this Users Guide.

WARNING: Electrical hazard

Be sure that power to the chiller is OFF when doing any maintenance on the chiller. Follow all safety rules when performing any maintenance on this equipment.

Daily maintenance includes:

Checking electrical connections

Checking process fluid level in the pump tank

Checking the condenser coil for debris

Verifying pump discharge pressure

Inspecting piping for leaks

NOTE: The daily, weekly, monthly, and semi-annual mainte- nance procedures are detailed in the Maintenance section. Go there for detailed preventative maintenance.

Before starting the Chiller be sure to:

Open the To Process valve to the full open position.

Open the From Process valve

to the 3/4 open position. You will need to adjust this valve when the chiller is running to obtain the desired pump discharge pressure. To find the approximate water flow, refer to the Pump Curves in Description section.

BEFORE STARTING

From Process valve

To Process valve

Check that the casters are locked.
