d. Run the pumpout compressor until the chiller pres- sure reaches 65 psig (448 kPa) [30 psig (207 kPa)],

then shut off the pumpout compressor. Warm con- denser water will boil off any entrapped liquid refrig- erant and chiller pressure will rise.

e. When the pressure rises to 70 psig (483 kPa) [40 psig (276 kPa)], turn on the pumpout compressor until the pressure again reaches 65 psig (448 kPa) [30 psig (207 kPa)], and then turn off the compressor. Repeat this process until the pressure no longer rises, then turn on the pumpout compressor and pump out until the pressure reaches 18 in. Hg (40 kPa absolute).

f. Close valves 1a, 1b, 3, 4, 6, and 7.

g. Turn off the pumpout condenser water and continue with the Control Test for Pumpdown, which will lock out the chiller compressor for operation.

4. Establish vacuum for service.

a. In order to conserve refrigerant, operate the pump- out compressor until the chiller pressure is reduced to 18 in. Hg vac, ref 30 in. bar. (40 kPa abs.) following Step 3e.

Chillers with Isolation Valves

TRANSFER ALL REFRIGERANT TO CHILLER CON- DENSER VESSEL Ð For chillers with isolation valves, re- frigerant can be transferred from one chiller vessel to another without the need for an external storage tank and valve 7 stays closed. See Fig. 27, 28, and 35 for valve locations.
