WW/WT units are supplied with either a copper or
optional cupro-nickel Water to refrigerant Heat
Exchanger. Copper is adequate for ground water that is
not high in mineral content
.
(See water quality table on page # 30)
In conditions anticipating moderate scale formation or in
brackish water a cupro-nickel heat exchanger is
recommended.
Both the supply and discharge water lines will sweat if
subjected to low water temperature. These lines should
be insulated to prevent damage from condensation. All
manual flow valves used in the system must be ball
valves. Globe and gate valves must not be used due to
high pressure drop and poor throttling characteristics.
Always check carefully for water leaks and repair
appropriately. Units are equipped with female pipe
thread fittings. Consult Unit Dimensional Drawings page
# 39 to 40.
Flexible hoses should be used between the unit and the
rigid system to avoid possible vibration. Ball valves
should be installed in the supply and return lines for unit
isolation and unit water flow balancing.
ELECTRICAL
Refer to electrical component box layout. (Figure #)
Properly sized fuses or HACR circuit breakers must be
installed for branch circuit protection. See unit
nameplate for maximum fuse or breaker size.
The unit is provided with a concentric knock-out for
attaching common trade sizes of conduit, route power
supply wiring through this opening. Always connect the
ground lead to the grounding lug provided in the control
box and power leads to the line side of compressor
contactor as indicated on the wiring diagram (Figures on
Page #34 to 44).
NOTICE: Never use flexible hoses of a
smaller inside diameter than that of the
fluid connections on the unit.
Proper testing is recommended to assure the well
water quality is suitable for use with water source
equipment. When in doubt, use cupro-nickel.(See
Water Quality Table on page #30)
NOTICE: Never exceed the recommended
water flow rates as serious damage or
erosion of the water-to-refrigerant heat
exchanger could occur.
Teflon tape sealer should be used when connecting
water piping connections to the units to ensure
against leaks and possible heat exchanger fouling.
NOTE: Do not overtighten the connections.
WARNING: Field wiring must comply with
local and national electric codes.
WARNING: Power to the unit must be
within the operating voltage range indicated
on the unit nameplate or on the
performance data sheet.
CAUTION Operation of unit on improper
line voltage or with excessive phase
imbalance will be hazardous to the unit,
constitutes abuse and may void the
warranty.
