The DCLC series centrifugal chillers are applicable for air conditioning system or technology
process in need of the chilled water. And the owner must provide cooling system by themselves.
Please refer to the specifications of the chiller on the name plate.
1 - SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
DCLC liquid chillers are designed to provide safe and reliable service when operated within design
specifications. When operating these chillers, use good judgment and safety precautions to avoid
damage to equipment and property or injury to personnel.
Be sure you understand and follow the procedures and safety precautions contained in the chiller
instructions as well as those listed in this guide.
1.1 - Installation safety considerations
In certain cases the safety valves are installed on stop valves. These valves are factory-supplied
lead-sealed in the open position. This system permits isolating and removing the safety valves for
checking and replacing. The safety valves are designed and installed to ensure protection against
high pressure and fire risk.
All factory-installed safety valves are lead-sealed to prevent any calibration change. If a safety
valve is removed for checking or replacement please ensure that there is always an active safety
valve on each of the reversing valves installed in the unit.
The safety valves must be connected to discharge pipes. These pipes must be installed in a way
that ensures that people and property are not exposed to refrigerant leaks. These fluids may be
diffused in the air, but far away from any building air intake, or they must be discharged in a
quantity that is appropriate for a suitably absorbing environment. Periodic check of the safety
valves: See “Maintenance safety considerations”.
DANGER:
� DO NOT VENT safety valves into a building. Outlet from valves must be vented outdoors.
PROVIDE adequate ventilation, especially for enclosed and low overhead spaces. Inhalation of
high concentrations of vapor is harmful and may cause heart irregularities, unconsciousness,
or death. Misuse can be fatal. Vapor is heavier than air and reduces the amount of oxygen
available for breathing. Product causes eye and skin irritation. Decomposition products are
hazardous.
� DO NOT USE OXYGEN to purge lines or to pressurize a chiller for any purpose. Oxygen gas
reacts violently with oil, grease, and other common substances.
� NEVER EXCEED specified test pressures, verify the allowable test pressure by checking the
instruction literature and the design pressures on the chiller nameplate.
4
� DO NOT USE air for leak testing. Use only refrigerant or dry nitrogen.
� DO NOT VALVE OFF any safety device. BE SURE that all pressure safety valves are properly,
installed and functioning before operating any chiller.
1.2 - Maintenance safety considerations
Engineers working on the electric or refrigeration components must be authorized, trained and fully
qualified. All refrigerant circuit repairs must be carried out by an authorize engineer, fully qualified
to work on these units. He must be familiar with the equipment and the installation.
NOTE:
During any handling, maintenance and service operations the engineers working on the unit must
be equipped with safety gloves, glasses, shoes and protective clothing.
WARNING:
� DO NOT WELD OR FLAMECUT any refrigerant line or vessel until all refrigerant (liquid and
Vapor) has been removed from chiller. Traces of Vapor should be displaced with dry air
nitrogen and the work area should be well ventilated. Refrigerant in contact with an open flame
produces toxic gases.
� DO NOT work on high-voltage equipment unless you are qualified.
� DO NOT WORK ON electrical components, including control panels, switches, relays etc, until
you ensure ALL POWER IS OFF; residual voltage can leak from capacitors or solid state
components.
� LOCK OPEN AND TAG electrical circuits during servicing. IF WORK IS INTERRUPTED,
confirm that all circuits are de-energized before resuming work.
1.3 - Operating checks
During the life-time of the system, inspection and tests must be carried out against the national
standards. The safety devices on site must be checked each year. And every five years for external
overpressure devices (safety stop valves). If the chiller operates in a corrosive environment,
inspect the protection devices more frequently.
NOTE:
� DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR OR RECONDITION any safety devices when corrosion or
build-up of foreign material (rust, dirt, scale, etc.) is found within the valve body or mechanism.
� DO NOT install safety valves in series or backwards.
� PROVIDE A DRAIN connection in the vent line near each pressure relief device to prevent a
build-up of condensate or rain water.
1.4 - Equipment and components under pressure
These products incorporate equipment or components under pressure, manufactured by
Dunham-Bush or other manufacturers. Consult your appropriate national trade association or the
owner of the equipment or components under pressure (declaration, re-qualification, retesting, etc).
The characteristics of this equipment/these components are given on the nameplate or in the
5
required documentation, supplied with the products.
1.5 - Repair safety considerations
All installation parts must be maintained by the personnel in charge, in order to avoid material
deterioration and injuries to people. Faults and leaks must be repaired immediately. The authorized
technician must have the responsibility to repair the fault immediately. Each time repairs have been
carried out to the unit, the operation of the safety devices must be re-checked. If a leak occurs or if
the refrigerant becomes polluted (e.g. by a short circuit in a motor) remove the complete charge
using a recovery unit and store the refrigerant in mobile containers. Repair the leak detected and
recharge the circuit with the total R134a charge, as indicated on the unit name plate.
NOTE:
� DO NOT siphon refrigerant. AVOID SPILLING liquid refrigerant on skin or getting it into the
eyes. USE SAFETY GOGGLES AND SAFETY GLOVES. Wash any spills from the skin with
soap and water. If liquid refrigerant enters the eyes, IMMEDIATELY FLUSH EYES with water
and consult a physician.
� NEVER APPLY an open flame or live steam to refrigerant cylinder. Dangerous overpressure
can result. If it is necessary to heat refrigerant, use only warm water.
� DO NOT REUSE disposable (non-returnable) cylinders or attempt to refill them. It is
DANGEROUS AND ILLEGAL. When cylinders are emptied, evacuate remaining gas pressure,
loosen the collar and unscrew and discard the valve stem. DO NOT INCINERATE.
� During refrigerant operations, CHECK THE REFRIGERANT TYPE before adding refrigerant to
the chiller. Wrong refrigerant can cause damage or malfunction to the chiller.
� Periodically monitor and repair or if necessary replace any component or piping that shows
signs of damage.
� DO NOT climb over a chiller. Use platform, or staging.
� USE MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT (crane, hoist, etc.) to lift or move heavy components. Even if
components are light, use mechanical equipment when there is a risk of slipping or losing your
balance.
� DO NOT USE eyelets to lift any part of the chiller or the complete chiller.
� BE AWARE that certain automatic start arrangements CAN ENGAGE TOWER FAN, OR
PUMPS. Open the disconnect ahead of the tower fans, or pumps.
� USE only repair or replacement parts that meet the code requirements of the original
equipment.
� DO NOT VENT OR DRAIN water boxes containing industrial brines, without the permission of
your process control group.
� DO NOT LOOSEN water box bolts until the water box has been completely drained.
� DO NOT LOOSEN a packing gland nut before checking that the nut has a positive thread
engagement.
� PERIODICALLY INSPECT all valves, fittings, and piping for corrosion, rust, leaks, or damage.

2 –INSTALLATION
2.1 - Introduction
The DCLC chiller is factory assembled, wired, leak tested and electrically tested. Installation (not
by Dunham-Bush) consists primarily of establishing water and electrical services to the chiller. The
rigging, installation, site wiring, site piping, and insulation of water box covers are the responsibility
of the contractor and/or customer. Dunham-Bush will provide necessary guideline for the chiller
installation.
2.2 - Receiving the chiller
NOTE:
� Do not open any valves or loosen any connections. The standard DCLC chiller is shipped with
a nitrogen holding charge. Inspect for shipping damage while chiller is still on shipping
conveyance. If chiller appears to be damaged or has been torn loose from its anchorage, have
it examined by transportation inspectors before removal. Forward claim papers directly to
transport companies. Manufacturer is not responsible for any damage incurred in transit.
� Installation unit should be carried out by Professionals. Water chilling unit should be grounded
well. Moreover, the grounding wire can’t join to gas pipe, telephone line. Otherwise, there may
be an electric shock accident.
2.2.1 - Inspect shipment
Compare the name plate data with the order. Confirm that the unit received is the one ordered.
A. The unit nameplate must include the following information:
� Model number
� Cooling capacity
� Rated power consumption
� Refrigerant and charge amount
� Cooling/chilled water flow
� Chilled water in/outlet temperature
� Unit weight and outline dimensions
� Product no.
� COP value
� Power supply
� Cooling water in/outlet temperature
� Manufacturing date
� Production license no.

2.2.2 - Provide chiller protection
To prevent loss or damage, leave all parts in original packages until the installation. In order to
prevent dirt and debris from entering chiller components during shipping, all opens should be
closed with covers or plugs. A full operating oil charge is placed in the oil sump before shipment.
Do not keep the DCLC units outside where they are exposed to the weather, as the sensitive
control mechanism and the electronic modules may be damaged. The unit should also be away
from fire source and flammable substance. If it is paralleled with heating elements such as boiler,
pay sufficient attention to the influence of heat radiation.
Fig.2 Typical DCLC Unit profile

Choose places with indoor temperature below 45℃ and good ventilation. The unit should not be
installed and stored outdoors or in the open air, or in environments with corrosive gas.
The location of the unit should have good lighting for good maintenance and checking. And there
should be enough space for drawing out heat exchange pipes in the unit to meet the need of
maintaining, checking and cleaning the heat exchanger. The room should be longer than the length
of the unit.
Use a traveling crane or derrick crane for unit hoisting and checking. Make sure there is enough
overhead service clearance.
Water drainage can be thoroughly realized around the unit and in the entire chiller room.
If chiller is exposed to freezing temperature after water circuits have been installed, open water
drains in the waterbox and remove all water from Cooler and condenser. Leave drains open until
there is no water in the system.
Refrigerant detection systems(not by Dunham-bush) shall be fitted in chiller rooms for refrigerants
with ODP>0 or GWP>0 if the system charge is more than 25 kg. Refrigerant detection systems
shall be fitted in chiller rooms for any refrigerants in order to raise alarms and initiate ventilation if
the refrigerant’s level rises to 25 % of the LFL or 50 % of the ATEL/ODL.
The unit must be checked periodically during its operating life to ensure that no shocks (handling
accessories, tools etc.) have damaged it. If necessary, the damaged parts must be repaired or
replaced. See also “DCLC Operation and Maintenance Manual”.
2.3 - Lift the chiller
The entire DCLC chiller can be lifted as default. The flange connections allow the compressor,
cooler and condenser sections to be separated and lifted individually.
2.3.1 – Rigging the entire DCLC chiller
See rigging instructions on the label attached to chiller. Lift chiller only from the points indicated in
the instructions supplied and in the chiller rigging drawings. Each lifting cable or chain must be
capable of supporting the entire weight of the chiller.
NOTE:
� Lifting chiller from points other than those specified may result in serious damage to the unit
and personal injury. Rigging equipment and procedures must be adequate for chiller weight.
� These weights are broken down into component sections for use when installing the unit in
sections. For the complete chiller weight, add all component sections and refrigerant charge
together.
� Make sure that rigging cable is over the rigging bar before lifting.
9
2.3.2 - Rig chiller components
Refer to instructions below:
� Only a qualified service technician should perform this operation.
� Do not attempt to disconnect flanges while the chiller is under pressure. Failure to relieve
pressure can result in personal injury or damage to the chiller.
� Wiring must also be disconnected, before rigging the compressor. In order to disconnect the
starter from the chiller, remove wiring for the oil pump, oil heater, control wiring at the control
box, and the main motor leads at the starter lugs. Remove all transducer and sensor wires with
the sensor. Clip all wire ties necessary to pull heat exchangers apart.
� If the Cooler and condenser vessels must be separated, the heat exchangers should be kept
level by placing a support plate under the tube sheets. The support plate will also help to keep
the vessels level and aligned when the vessels are bolted back together.
2.3.3 - Lifting
A. Packaged lifting: Before lifting, make sure the steel wire connect to the sheet hole and load
well-distributed. Be careful not to damage the other parts.
Pay more attention to following points:
� Lift the units horizontal as far as possible. If it has to be oblique, make sure the tilt angle less
than 20 °.
� Damage will happen when impact, be sure that the units will be transported smoothly and
safely.
� When transporting the module with rolling bars, do protect the units from overturning. Lifting pointLifting beam

2.4 - Install chiller supports
Note:
Typical applications of these units are in refrigeration systems, and do not require earthquake
resistance. Earthquake resistance has not been verified.
The stator of centrifugal refrigerating compressor has very little dynamic load to the base after
strict static balance and dynamic balance. Refer to general drawing of the chiller for detailed
base dimension. The base surface against the steel plate as seat of the unit should be
horizontal and smooth. If the base surface is uneven, it may be necessary to use the accessory
spring isolators. Spring isolators are purchased as an accessory from Dunham-Bush. It can be
field supplied and installed. The spring isolators should be placed directly under chiller support
plates or located under chiller soleplates.
The installation requirements are as follows:
� Ensure that the base dimension is exactly the same as that in the general drawing.
� Place the base plate where it is required. Then place the chiller on the base plate.
� Ensure no interspace between the base plate and chiller soleplates. Fill a leveling pad
between the base plate and concrete base to adjust the chiller to water level (the height
15
difference should be within 0.5mm/meter).
� Hoist the chiller to place shock-absorption rubber pad on the base plate, then place the
chiller on the shock-absorption rubber pad.
� Guarantee that the level gradient of the chiller is no more than 1/1000.
� Adopt drainage channel around the chiller unit. The drainage around the unit must be good
to prevent the unit from erosion.
In order to provide adequate, long-lasting support for the chiller, it is essential to choose the
right concrete and to apply it properly. Dunham-Bush advise using an epoxy-type, pre-mixed,
non-shrinking concrete only.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for applying the concrete:
� Check the unit layout drawing to determine the concrete thickness required.
� The concrete must be applied up to the top of the base of the spring isolator, and there
must be no gap in the concrete below the spring isolators.
� Dry the concrete in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions before starting the unit.
Note:1. There are 4 base plates,16 adjuster bolts and 16 leveling pads ineach chiller.Foundation materials are supplied by the client.2. After the solidification of concrete, spin out the adjuster bolts.3. The thickness of the secondary cement layer can be adjustedaccording to the chiller level, determined by the client.FG

2.6.1 - Install water piping to heat exchanger
For size and position of the heat exchanger water inlet and outlet connections, refer to the
certified dimensional drawings supplied with the chiller from Dunham-Bush. Connect the
pipeline of chilled water and cooling water (flange connection) according to the general
drawing.
NOTE:
� Factory-supplied insulation is not flammable but can be damaged by welding sparks and
open flame. Protect insulation with a wet canvas cover.
� Remove chilled and cooling water sensors and probes before welding connecting piping to
the connections. Replace them after welding.
� Offset pipe flanges to permit removal of waterbox cover for maintenance and to provide
clearance for pipe cleaning. However, water pipe should not cross in front of the waterbox
or access will be blocked.
� The water piping must not transmit any radial or axial force to the heat exchangers.
Provide openings in water piping for required pressure gages and thermometers. For thorough
mixing and temperature stabilization, wells in the leaving water pipe should extend at least
50mm inside the pipe.
Install air vents at all high points in piping to remove air and prevent water hammer.
Install waterbox vent and drain piping in accordance with individual job data. The connections
are 3⁄4NPT. And then, fill the unused waterbox drains and vent openings with plugs.
Adopt a filter at the water inlet. Do not exert burden from connected pipeline or other load on
the cooler and condenser (take measures of pipe supporting and so on). Install pipe hangers
where needed. Make sure no weight or stress is placed on waterbox nozzles or flanges.
The direction of the water pipe inlet and outlet are decided by users according to actual
conditions. It is advised that entering water is always the lower of the 2 nozzles. Leaving water
is always the upper nozzle for cooler or condenser.
The outlet temperature of chilled water and cooling water will be mixed thoroughly after a
flowing distance. There are two temperature sensor probe connectors, for fixing the
water-outlet temperature sensor probe of chilled water and cooling water respectively. The
connectors should be installed according to the diagram below.
The releasing length of probe conducting wire is 3 meters away from the water outlet flange
20
surface. There are 4 temperature sensors in the chilled/cooling water in/outlet pipes totally. To
see whether the water flow quantity conformed to rated or not, a device is installed in the
chilled water in/outlet pipes to detect the pressure difference after the cooler.

2.6.2 - Install vent piping to safety valves
Refrigerant discharged into confined spaces can displace oxygen and cause asphyxiation. It is
advised that the safety valve should discharge outdoors refer to Fig.2 “Typical DCLC Unit
profile”.
If safety valves are manifolded, the cross-sectional area of the relief pipe must at least equal
the sum of the areas required for individual relief pipes.(Standard single valve flow area is
254mm2)Install pipe bracket where needed, ensure no load on the safety valve discharge pipe
line. A length of flexible tubing or piping near the device is essential on spring-isolated chillers.
Cover the outdoor vent with a rain cap and place a condensation drain at the low point in the
vent piping to prevent water build-up on the atmospheric side of the relief device.
The DCLC chiller is factory equipped with safety valves on the cooler and condenser shells.
The opening pressure of the safety valve is 1.28MPa.The safety valves are installed after stop
valves, which are lead-sealed in the open position. These valves permit isolating and removing
the safety valves for calibration and replacement.
NOTE:
� Provide a pipe plug near outlet side of each relief device for leak test. Provide pipe fittings
that allow vent piping to be disconnected periodically for inspection of valve mechanism.
� Equip the piping with connections allowing disconnection for the inspection of the piping.
