Carrier PrimeLINE - Water-Cooled Condenser Section

T-362 3–6
3.1.4 Water-Cooled Condenser Section
The unit may contain a water-cooled condenser (WCC) installed as an option. When operating on the water-cooled
condenser, the condenser fan is deactivated by a water pressure switch or condenser fan switch. There are two
types of water-cooled condensers available and both are described below.
Tube in Shell Water-Cooled Condenser
The tube in shell water-cooled condenser section (see Figure 3.6) consists of a water-cooled condenser, sight
glass, rupture disc, filter drier, water couplings, water pressure switch, economizer, economizer expansion valve
(EXV), economizer solenoid valve (ESV), and moisture / liquid indicator. The water-cooled condenser is in series
with the air-cooled condenser and replaces the standard unit receiver.
