2.04 Chiller Components
A. Compressors
1. The compressors shall be sealed hermetic, scroll type with crankcase oil heater
and suction strainer. The compressor motor shall be refrigerant gas cooled, high
torque, hermetic induction type, two-pole, with inherent thermal protection on
all three phases and shall be mounted on RIS vibration isolator pads. The
compressors shall be equipped with an internal module providing compressor
protection and communication capability.
B. Evaporators
1. The evaporator shall be a compact, high-efficiency, dual circuit, brazed plate-to-
plate type heat exchanger consisting of parallel stainless steel plates.
2. The evaporator shall be protected with an external, electric resistance heater
plate. The evaporator shall be insulated with 3/4” thick CFC and HCFC-free closed-
cell flexible elastomeric foam insulation material with 100% adhesive coverage.
The insulation shall have an additional outer protective layer of 3mm thick PE
embossed film to provide superior damage resistance. Insulation without the
protective outer film shall not be acceptable. UV resistance level shall meet or
exceed a rating of ‘Good’ in accordance with the UNI ISO 4892 - 2/94 testing
method. This combination of a heater plate and insulation shall provide freeze
protection down to -20°F ambient air temperature.
3. The water-side working pressure shall be a minimum of 435 psig. Vent and drain
connections shall be provided in the inlet and outlet chilled water piping by the
installing contractor. Evaporators shall be designed and constructed according to,
and listed by, Underwriters Laboratories (UL).
C. Condenser
1. Condenser fans shall be propeller type arranged for vertical air discharge and
individually driven by direct-drive fan motors. The fans shall be equipped with a
heavy-gauge vinyl-coated fan guard. Fan motors shall be TEAO type with
permanently lubricated ball bearings, inherent overload protection, three-phase,
direct-drive, 1140 rpm. Each fan section shall be partitioned to avoid cross
circulation.
2. Coil shall be microchannel design and shall have a series of flat tubes containing
multiple, parallel flow microchannels layered between the refrigerant manifolds.
Tubes shall be 9153 aluminum alloy. Tubes made of 3102 alloy or other alloys of
lower corrosion resistance shall not be accepted. Coils shall consist of a two-pass
arrangement. Each condenser coil shall be factory leak tested with high-pressure
air under water.
D. Refrigerant Circuit
1. Each of the two refrigerant circuits shall include a refrigerant filter drier, sight
glass with moisture indicator, liquid line solenoid valve, expansion valve, and
insulated suction line.
E. Construction
1. Unit formed sheet metal components shall be painted using a corrosion resistant
paint system, for aesthetics and long-term durability. Paint system will include a
