OPERATION

COOLING SYSTEM

The cooling section is a complete factory package utilizing an air-cooled condenser. The system is factory-charged with Refrigerant-22.

The compressors are hermetically sealed, internally sprung and base-mounted with rubber-insulated hold-down bolts.

Compressors have inherent (internal) protection. If there is an abnormal temperature rise in a compressor, the protector will open to shut down the compressor.

PRELIMINARY OPERATION COOLING

After installation has been completed, energize the crank- case heaters for at least four hours before operating the unit. After the initial installation, the compressors should be given three false starts (energized just long enough to make a few revolutions) with 5-7 minutes delay between each start, before being put into full time service.

NOTE: Prior to each cooling season, the crankcase heaters must be energized at least 8 hours before system is put into operation.

COOLING SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

NO OUTDOOR AIR OPTIONS

When the room thermostat calls for first-stage cooling, the low voltage control circuit from R to G and Y1 is completed to energize compressor #1, condenser fan motor #1, condenser fan motor #2 (if the ambient temperature is above 60F), and the supply air blower motor (if the fan switch on the room thermostat is set in the AUTO position).

When the thermostat calls for second-stage cooling, the low voltage control circuit from R to Y2 is completed to energize compressor #2.

After the thermostat is satisfied and opens, all components will stop simultaneously. The blower motor will continue to operate if the fan switch on the room thermostat is set in the ON position.

ECONOMIZER WITH SINGLE ENTHALPY SENSOR

When the room thermostat calls for first-stage cooling, the low voltage control circuit from R to G and Y1 is completed. The R to G circuit energizes the blower motor (if the fan switch on the room thermostat is set in the AUTO position) and drives the economizer dampers from fully closed to their minimum position. If the enthalpy of the outdoor air is below the setpoint of the enthalpy controller (previously determined), Y1 energizes the economizer. The dampers will

modulate to maintain a constant supply air temperature as monitored by the discharge air sensor. If the outdoor air enthalpy is above the setpoint, Y1 energizes compressor #1, condenser fan motor #1, and condenser fan motor #2 (if the ambient temperature is above 60°F).

When the thermostat calls for second-stage cooling, the low voltage control circuit from R to Y2 is completed. If the enthalpy of the outdoor air is below the setpoint of the enthalpy controller (i.e. first stage has energized the econo- mizer), Y2 will energize compressor #1. If the outdoor air is above the setpoint, Y2 will energize compressor #2.

After the thermostat is satisfied and opens, all components will stop simultaneously. The blower motor will continue to operate if the fan switch on the room thermostat is set in the ON position.

ECONOMIZER WITH DUAL ENTHALPY SENSORS

The operation with the dual enthalpy sensors is identical to the single sensor except that a second enthalpy sensor is mounted in the return air. This return air sensor allows the economizer to choose between outdoor air and return air, whichever has the lowest enthalpy value, to provide maxi- mum operating efficiency.

ECONOMIZER (SINGLE OR DUAL) WITH POWER EXHAUST

This system operates as specified above with one addition. The power exhaust motor is energized whenever the econo- mizer is chosen by the enthalpy sensor for first stage cooling, Y1. As always, the R to G connection provides minimum position but does not provide power exhaust operation.

MOTORIZED OUTDOOR AIR DAMPERS

This system operation is the same as the units with no out- door air options with one exception. When the R to G circuit is complete, the motorized damper drives open to a position set by the thumbwheel on the damper motor. When the R to G circuit is opened, the damper spring returns fully closed.

CONTINUOUS BLOWER

Continuous blower operation is possible by closing the R to G circuit on the thermostat.

SAFETY CONTROLS

1.A Suction Line Freezestat to protect against low evapo- rator temperatures due to a low air flow or a low return air temperature. (Opens at 26°F + 5°F and resets at 38°F + 5°F)

2.A High Pressure Cutout Switch to protect against exces- sive discharge pressures due to a blocked condenser coil or a condenser motor failure. (Opens at 380 psig + 10 and resets at 300 psig +10)

DHG180, DHG240 specifications

Energy Tech Laboratories has made significant strides in the realm of energy efficiency and renewable technologies with the introduction of their innovative models, the DHG240 and DHG180. These advanced devices are designed to optimize energy consumption, minimize environmental impact, and enhance overall energy management.

The DHG240 model stands out with its high-capacity performance, delivering a robust output of 240 kW. This unit is ideal for large facilities and industrial applications, where energy demands are high. One of its main features is its advanced algorithm for energy distribution, which allows for optimal load balancing across various operational units. This ensures that energy is used efficiently, reducing waste and lowering operational costs.

Similarly, the DHG180 is designed for medium-sized operations, providing an output of 180 kW. It offers an effective solution for businesses seeking to improve energy efficiency without the excessive overhead costs typically associated with larger systems. The DHG180 incorporates state-of-the-art monitoring systems that provide real-time data on energy consumption, allowing operators to make informed decisions and adjust settings as needed.

Both models integrate cutting-edge technologies such as smart grid capabilities and renewable energy sources. They are equipped to handle integration with solar panels and wind turbines, enabling facilities to harness clean energy and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. This feature not only contributes to sustainability goals but also provides a buffer against fluctuating energy prices.

The design of both the DHG240 and DHG180 prioritizes durability and reliability. They are constructed from high-quality materials that withstand harsh operational conditions, ensuring a long lifespan and reduced maintenance costs. Furthermore, these systems are compliant with various energy efficiency standards, making them a responsible choice for environmentally conscious businesses.

User-friendliness is another hallmark of these devices. An intuitive interface allows operators to easily monitor and control energy usage, while remote access compatibility enables management from off-site locations. This flexibility is crucial in today’s fast-paced business environment.

In conclusion, Energy Tech Laboratories’ DHG240 and DHG180 models represent the forefront of energy technology. By delivering high performance, integrating renewable solutions, and prioritizing ease of use, these units empower businesses to achieve their energy efficiency goals while promoting sustainability. Whether for large industries or medium-sized enterprises, these systems are engineered to meet the dynamic needs of modern energy management.
