Cooling water
temperature at inlet is
high.
•
See if the cooling water supply rate matches the
specication. (Check the ow meter, discharge
pressure of the cooling water pump, current
and other applicable gauges or pumps). If the
ow rate is low, check the opening ratio of the
ow controller valve and check the strainer for
clogging.
• Check the capacity of the cooling tower.
• See Purge Procedure on page 130.
• Check the capacity of the vacuum pump.
• Check the purge unit for trouble.
•
Purge air from the absorption chiller. If partial-
load operation continues for a long time, non-
condensables gas tends to stay in the absorber.
In this case, purge directly from the low pressure
side (absorber). See Purge Procedure on page
130.
Chilled water temperature
at outlet is low.
Heat exchange tube is
dirty.
Purging is insufcient.
Air leaks in absorption
chiller.
Refrigerant
tank G102
Automatic on/off
temperature switch is not
set properly. The cooling
water inlet temperature
is low.
•
Check set value of automatic on/off temperature
switch 23AS.
• Check the cooling water inlet temperature.

Purging is insufcient. See Purge Procedure on page 130.
