CAUTION
●
The user needs to regularly test the water quality before the installation and during the operation to ensure that
the water quality meets the requirements of the above table. Once the water quality exceeds the allowable range
for a long time, there’s possibility corrosion leakage and serious scaling for the heat exchanger.
●
Any item with corrosion tendency show that long-term water quality exceeding the allowable range can lead to
corrosion leakage of the heat exchanger, even lower the performance or aect normal operation.
●
Any item with a tendency to scale down indicates that the water quality exceeds the allowable range for a
long time, which will lead to serious scaling of the heat exchanger, aect the heat exchange performance, and
directly lead to the decrease of the cooling (heating) capability of the unit.
●
The loss caused by the user’s water quality problem shall be borne by the user.
Ethylene glycol antifreeze to the circulating water
For chiller units, when the local minimum environment temperature is lower than 0°C, ethylene glycol antifreeze must be added
to the circulating water for the low ambient temperature unit, and the freezing point of the antifreeze must be 2-5 °C lower than
the local minimum environment temperature. The concentration of the antifreeze ethylene glycol must be checked regularly to
prevent the unit from being damaged.
The concentration of ethylene glycol should be higher than 20% to prevents hydrolytic corrosion at low concentrations.
When replenishing circulating water, the make-up water should be containing the same concentration of ethylene glycol. And it
is required to weekly test the concentration.
The relation between the concentration of ethylene glycol and the freezing point shows in the following table & chart.
