MACHINE ASSEMBLY

No assembly is required for one-piece units (16DF013-

020)other than installing the burner. See Mounting the Burner section.

Assemble 2-Piece Units (Fig. 8 and 9)

1.Weld piping connections and make sure weld connec- tions are vacuum leak tight.

2.Install the burner. See Mounting the Burner section.

Machine Leak Test Ð All ®eld-welded joints on the chiller must be leak tested prior to starting the machine. Leak test as follows:

1.Close all external service valves.

2.If machine is under vacuum, bring to atmospheric pres- sure with dry air or dry nitrogen.

3.Pressurize to 6 psig (40 kPa) with tracer gas. Charge through auxiliary evacuation valve.

4.Increase the machine pressure to 12 psig (80 kPa) with dry air or dry nitrogen.

Exceeding 12 psi (80 kPa) can cause severe damage to chiller.

5.Leak test all ®eld-welded joints with electronic leak de- tectors or equivalent. If machine has acquired a leak in shipment or rigging, all joints must be leak tested.

6.After leak testing has been completed and leaks have been corrected, release the machine pressure.

Machine Evacuation Ð Removal of non-condensables from the machine is required after machine has been opened. To evacuate the machine, proceed as follows:

1.Connect auxiliary evacuation device (Fig. 10) to auxil- iary evacuation valve. Be sure that the line is as short as possible and that line size is not smaller than connection to auxiliary device. A check valve or oil trap must be used on the suction lines to keep vacuum pump oil out of the chiller. Be sure that all connections are vacuum tight.

2.Close external service valve(s).

3.Start auxiliary evacuation device. Open auxiliary evacu- ation valve. Reduce machine pressure to one in. of mer- cury absolute or lower. Check pressure with absolute pressure gage at refrigerant pump service valve.
