played and read on a graphic display. Other displays
can be observed by pressing the keys as labeled on the
Control Center. The chiller with the OptiView Control
Center is compatible with an electro-mechanical start-
er, YORK Solid State Starter (optional), or Variable
Speed Drive (optional).
In operation, a liquid (water or brine to be chilled)
flows through the evaporator, where boiling refrigerant
absorbs heat from the liquid. The chilled liquid is then
piped to fan coil units or other air conditioning terminal
units, where it flows through finned coils, absorbing
heat from the air. The warmed liquid is then returned to
the chiller to complete the chilled liquid circuit.

SYSTEM OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The YORK Model YK Chiller is commonly applied
to large air conditioning systems, but may be used
on other applications. The chiller consists of an open
motor mounted to a compressor (with integral speed
increasing gears), condenser, evaporator and variable
flow control.
The chiller is controlled by a modern state of the art
Microcomputer Control Center that monitors its opera-

and shutdowns are also programmable to suit night-
time, weekends, and holidays. The operating status,
temperatures, pressures, and other information perti-
