INTRODUCTION
Zamil water cooled screw chillers (ASW series) offer the optimum performance and highest efficiency possible for the Gulfs harsh environment and abnormal operating conditions. The ASW series chillers were designed to provide central cooling for commercial and industrial applications with the highest reliability and least operating cost combination by the use of high efficiency dual screw compressors in combination with a water cooled condenser for every refrigeration circuit. Water cooled screw chillers offer the best cooling system solution for environments with high ambient temperatures and high humidity by using water as a cooling medium for the condenser. Water extracts heat from the refrigerant in a much better way than air, therefore it reliefs the compressor, hence lengthens the compressors life. Water cooled chillers also have a larger capacity compared to air cooled chillers and are much smaller in size. ASW series chillers are delivered in complete package, all the chiller components are installed on a rigid steel frame in a compact design, making the chiller suitable for indoor installation inside service rooms with the least space requirement. The compact design makes the chiller fit through standard doors with out the need of any disassembly, which makes the chiller easy to handle and install. ASW series chillers utilize the environmentally friendly R-134a refrigerant with the least minimum refrigerant pipe lengths and connections to assure no refrigerant leak.

STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS
CAPACITY CONTROL
A. Standard settings: These chillers are equipped with stepless capacity control system as standard for very accurate response to load requirements and best part load efficiency. Each compressor is equipped with a slider controller that enables to modulate capacity between 25% to 100%, thus giving a broad range to control total chiller capacity between 10% to 100% on an average. This system has following advantages: 1. Infinite capacity modulation allows the compressor capacity to exactly match the cooling load. 2. Reduce compressor cycling that leads to better operational reliability. 3. Reduce operating cost. B. Optional settings: The ASW packaged chillers incorporate stepped load shedding as required by some energy management systems. Modulation of capacity in response to system load requirements is affected by a microprocessor controller which monitors the leaving water temperature. Capacity control is achieved by cycling compressor ON/OFF and slider capacity pre-set control valve. The use of slider control valve provides excellent part load capacities. On multiple compressor units, capacity is controlled by a combination of slider capacity control valve and compressor staging.
CONTROL PANEL
The control panel design is equivalent to NEMA 4 (IP55) with hinged door for easy access ensuring dust and weatherproof construction. Internal power and control wiring is neatly routed, adequately anchored and all wires identified with cable markers as per NEC standards applicable to HVAC industry. The electrical controls used in the control panel are UL approved which are reliable in operation at high ambient conditions for a long period.
EVAPORATOR (COOLER)
Direct Expansion shell and tube evaporators are used in ASW series chillers to give high capacity, easy and quick installation and enable for easy maintenance operations. The shell is made of rigid steel with large water inlet and outlet to handle large water flow rate and capacity. The tubes are made of copper to provide the quickest response to load fluctuation. The evaporators have a new design that ensures a high level of mechanical strength and resistance to vibration, the design is made of U-shaped copper coils inside the shell, sufficient space is provided between the copper coils and the shell to allow for expansion of the tubes. This design also allows for easy cleaning of the evaporator, were the tubes can be removed easily. The evaporators are specially designed for R-134a applications. Their new design requires a smaller refrigerant charge and results in a lower pressure drop.

CONDENSER
Every refrigeration circuit has a separate water cooled condenser. The condenser is a shell and tube type with a rigid external structure made of steel and copper tubes and baffles in the inside to provide the best performance and response to load fluctuation. The condenser can be connected to a cooling tower or to an air cooled liquid cooler. As the evaporator shell and tube, the condenser shell and tube has a similar design with the same features. It should be noted that only treated water is suitable for the water cooled condenser to prevent corrosion, scaling and biological fouling, which will significantly affect the total system efficiency. It might be necessary to install a fixed continuous chemical treatment system to control certain properties of the cooling water used. When using a cooling tower, a makeup water tank must be used to supply the cooling water loop with make up water lost during cooling tower operation. Please contact the nearest Zamil representative for more information on water properties for the condenser loop.

TABLE - 1
STEP-1: UNIT SELECTION Entering the capacity performance data at given LCHWT and ambient temperature. ASW115B chiller unit will produce 113.89 tons and 94.3 kW compressor power input at 440F leaving chilled water temperature & 950F condenser leaving water temperature with 100F water temperature difference. For the conditions required, the unit actual cooling capacity when corrected for the fouling factor (1.0). Capacity = 113.89 x 1.0 = 113.89 Tons, which then exceeds the requirements. So the selection is correct. STEP-2: CHILLED WATER & CONDENSER WATER FLOW (GPM): Water GPM = Required capacity (Tons) x 24 = 110 x 24
0
Cooling Range, T 10 F (Required capacity, Tons + total power input/3.516) x 24 (110 + 94.3/3.516) x 24 Total condenser GPM = = = 328 GPM. Cooling Range, T 100F Total condenser GPM 328 Water flow per condenser GPM = = = 328 GPM. No. of condensers 1 Referring to pressure drop chart (page # 22 & 23), pressure drop for cooler at 264 GPM = 22 ft. of water for selected model and pressure drop for condenser at 168 GPM = 12 ft. of water for selected model. STEP-3: ELECTRICAL Refer to electrical data at 380V-3Ph-60Hz, the main power wire size for ASW115B is to be sized at a minimum circuit ampacity (MCA) of 206 Amps and the main branch protection device is to be sized at a maximum over current protection (MOCP) of 371 Amps. STEP-4: CHILLED WATER & CONDENSER WATER PUMP SELECTION For chilled water & condenser water pump selection, add all pressure drop in the closed chilled water loop piping to the pressure drop calculated in step 2. STEP-5: LCHWT CORRECTION Refer to table-2: Add correction factor to design leaving chilled water temperature (LCHWT) when chilled water temperature range is above 100F and subtract correction from design leaving chilled water temperature (LCHWT) when water temperature range is below 100F. EXAMPLE: If LCHWT rise is 12.50F, enter correction curve at 12.50F and read the correction factor of 0.2. The corrected LCHWT is 44+0.2 = 44.20F. NOTE: 1. When the chilled water temperature rise is less than 50F, the high water flow rate will result to excessive pressure drop. In such cases, contact factory for special selection of a cooler with wider baffle spacing. 2.Please refer to water pressure drop curves.

STEP-1: UNIT SELECTION Entering the capacity performance data at given LCHWT and ambient temperature. ASW115B chiller unit will produce 385.67 kW and 94.9 kW compressor power input at 60C leaving chilled water temperature & 350C condenser leaving water temperature with 60C water temperature difference. For the conditions required, the unit actual cooling capacity when corrected for the fouling factor (1.0). Capacity = 385.67 x 1.0 = 385.67 kW, which is very close to the required capacity. So the selection is correct. STEP-2: CHILLED WATER & CONDENSER WATER FLOW (GPM): Water LPS = Required capacity kW) x 0.239 = 386 x 0.239

TABLE - 2 = 15.4 LPS Cooling Range, T 60C (Required capacity, kW + total power input) x 0.239 (386 + 94.9) x 0.239 Total condenser LPS = = = 19.16 LPS. Cooling Range, T 60C Total condenser LPS 19.16 Water flow per condenser LPS = = = 19.16 LPS. No. of condensers 1 Referring to pressure drop chart (page 22 & 23), pressure drop for cooler at 15.4 LPS = 65.77 kPa for selected model and pressure drop for condenser at 19.16 LPS = 35.85 kPa for selected model. STEP-3: ELECTRICAL Refer to electrical data at 380V-3Ph-60Hz, the main power wire size for ASW115B is to be sized at a minimum circuit ampacity (MCA) of 206 Amps and the main branch protection device is to be sized at a maximum over current protection (MOCP) of 371 Amps. STEP-4: CHILLED WATER & CONDENSER WATER PUMP SELECTION For chilled water & condenser water pump selection, add all pressure drop in the closed chilled water loop piping to the pressure drop calculated in step 2. STEP-5: LCHWT CORRECTION Refer to table-2: Add correction factor to design leaving chilled water temperature (LCHWT) when chilled water temperature range is above 60C and subtract correction from design leaving chilled water temperature (LCHWT) when water temperature range is below 60C. EXAMPLE: If LCHWT rise is 7.40C, enter correction curve at 7.40C and read the correction factor of 0.11. The corrected LCHWT is 60C+0.11 = 6.110C. NOTE: 1. When the chilled water temperature rise is less than 30C, the high water flow rate will result to excessive pressure drop. In such cases, contact factory for special selection of a cooler with wider baffle spacing. 2.Please refer to water pressure drop curves.

MICROPROCESSOR CONTROLLER
Sequence of Operation
The following describes the sequence of operation for a two screw compressor chiller unit. Operation is similar for a one or four compressor unit. For initial start-up, the following conditions must be met: All power supplied to the unit shall be energized for 12 hours. Control power switch on for at least 5 minutes. All safety conditions satisfied. Press ESC on the microcomputer keypad. Chilled water pump running and chilled water flow switch contact closed. Customer interlock contact closed, if any. Condenser water pump running and condenser water flow switch contact closed.
STAGE - ON SEQUENCE
Staging ON & OFF sequence, shall be accomplished by the Leaving water temperature control selection. Stage #1: If the Leaving Water Temperature is greater than the Stage 1- ON water temperature set point value, the Compressor #1 liquid line solenoid & slider control valves shall be switched ON. Now the compressor is in the minimum or unloaded capacity. The compressor capacity is varied to achieve the full/part load capacity as per the load demand.
Stage #2: If the Leaving Water Temperature is greater than the Stage 2- ON water temperature set point value, the Compressor #2 liquid line solenoid & slider control valves shall be switched ON. Now the compressor is in the minimum or unloaded capacity. The compressor capacity is varied to achieve the full/part load capacity as per the load demand.

APPLICATION GUIDELINES
INTRODUCTION
These guidelines should be considered when designing systems and their installation utilizing Zamil ASW series liquid chillers. Stable operation, performance and reliability of units is often dependent upon proper compliance with these recommendations. When any application varies from these guidelines, it should be referred with Zamil Air Conditioners for specific recommendations.
UNIT SELECTION/SIZING
Unit selection procedure and capacities are provided in this catalog for proper selection. The Zamil electronic selection program may also be utilized for this purpose. Over sizing chillers beyond a maximum limit of 5 10 % in order to assure adequate capacity or considering future expansions is not recommended. Over sizing adversely affects the operating efficiency due to erratic system operation and excessive compressor cycling which also results in reduced compressor life. It should be noted that, units operate more efficiently when fully loaded rather than larger equipment operating at partial capacities. In addition, an oversized unit is usually more costly to purchase, install and operate. When over sizing is desired due to anticipation of future plant expansion, consider using multiple units. For example, install a single chiller for the present load requirement and install a second chiller for the foreseen additional load demand due to expansion. Further, it is also recommended that installing two chillers instead of a single chiller be considered in applications where partial load operation at low capacities is necessary. Operation of two chillers at higher loading is preferred to operating a single chiller at or near its minimum possible capacity.

In this type of arrangement, constant water flow through the chillers and load distribution piping circuit is maintained. Before proceeding further, a brief explanation on the operation of a typical chilled water system / valves which is fundamental to the design or analysis of a system. Where multiple zones of control are required, the various load devices are controlled first; then the source (chillers) system capacity is controlled to follow the capacity requirement of the loads. Control valves are commonly used to control loads. These valves control the capacity of each load by varying the amount of water flow through the load device. Control valves for these applications are two-way (straight-through) and three-way valves. The effect of either valve is to vary the amount of water flowing through the load device. With a two-way valve, as the valve strokes from full-open to fullclosed, the quantity of water flowing through the load gradually decreases from design flow to no flow. The three-way mixing valve has the same effect on the load as the two way valve - as the load reduces, the quantity of water flowing through the load decreases in proportion to the load and the difference amount is directed through a bypass. In terms of load control, a two-way valve and a three-way valve perform identical functionsthey both vary the flow through the load as the load changes. The fundamental difference between the two-way valve and the three-way valve is that as the source or distribution system sees the load, the two-way valve provides a variable flow load response and the three-way valve provides a constant flow load response. Referring to the foregoing schematic layout, this is a conventional system and is not as energy efficient as the two-way valve systems especially on the pumping side due to constant water circulation in the system. On multiple chiller installations, pumps are required to operate continuously and the sequencing of chillers is dependent on water temperatures.

In this type of arrangement, constant water flow through the chillers is maintained, however the quantity of water flowing through the load distribution piping system decreases in proportion to the load and the difference amount is directed through a bypass pipe that connects the supply and return headers. Brief sequence of operation is as follows: The bypass with its control valve and flow meter provides the design flow required through the chillers. Flow meter FM1 measures the actual flow to the chilled water system. The system flow is compared with the required flow for the chillers. The difference is made up through the bypass and is monitored by flow meter FM2. This flow meter controls the bypass valve to maintain the desired flow in the bypass based on the set points in the system controller (the valve is positioned by sum of flow meters FM1 and FM2). The speed of the chiller pumps is controlled by the differential pressure sensor/transmitter, maintaining the desired differential pressure ( P) across the cooling coils, their control valves and the branch piping. The pump speed is modulated within a certain range in order to reduce the pumping head and not to alter the water flow rate (the duty flow rate of the pumps remains constant). Each chiller-pump combination operates independently from the remaining chillers and each pump is shutdown when the respective chiller is stopped. Instead of using water temperature as an indicator of demand, the sequencing of chillers is dependent on water flow. The chillers are rated in gallons per minute; the actual flow to the system determines the number of chillers that should be in operation. Energy is saved because the system head is reduced appreciably when there are light cooling loads on the system and due to cycling of pumps. Note: Some designers may consider installing constant speed pumps and utilize pressure relief bypass control valves controlled by a differential pressure sensor/controller to maintain a fixed differential pressure between the supply and return mains of the chilled water system in order to accommodate for the required chiller flow and to achieve some form of variable volume system. This method is not recommended as its a wasteful practice because a considerable amount of energy is lost, an almost constant volume system results and the pumping energy remains substantially that required at full system flow and head. Also, the problem with this system is improper control of the bypass valve which does not guarantee proper flow through the chillers and high differential pressures in the control valves on the cooling coils when the system friction subsides at low loads which can cause lifting of the valve stems or wire cutting of the valve seats. Further, as all the water must be pumped at a head equal to or greater than the design head, the pump or pumps are forced to run up the pump head capacity curve, which increases the overpressure on the system and also increases the wear on the pumps, since they are forced to operate with high radial thrusts.

This system is called a Primary Secondary System and in this arrangement, the generation zone is separated from the transportation or distribution zone. In this type of arrangement also, constant water flow through the chillers is maintained, however the quantity of water flowing through the load distribution pump/piping system decreases in proportion to the load and the difference amount is directed through a bypass pipe that connects the supply and return headers. This bypass pipe forms a Hydraulic Coupling between the points A B and is also called as Common Bridge or Decoupling Line. The sequence of operation is similar as the foregoing system with the following explanation: The speed of the secondary chiller pump is controlled by the differential pressure sensor/transmitter, maintaining the desired differential pressure ( P) across the cooling coils, their control valves and the branch piping. This pump speed is modulated within a broad range in order to reduce the pumping head and alter the water flow rate based on the changing load conditions. The primary pumps are constant speed pumps and the design flow rate through the chillers remains constant. Each chillerpump combination operates independently from the remaining chillers and each pump is shutdown when the respective chiller is stopped. The sequencing of chillers is dependent on water flow. If greater flow is demanded than that supplied by the chillerpumps, return water is forced through the bypass into the supply header. This flow indicates a need for additional chiller capacity and another chiller-pump starts. Excess bypass flow with reference to the set points in the system controller in the opposite direction i.e., into the return header indicates overcapacity and the chiller-pumps are turned off. Energy is saved because the system head and water flow rate are reduced on the Secondary Pump when there are partial cooling loads on the system and due to cycling of Primary Pumps.
Water piping must be connected correctly to the unit i.e., water must enter from the inlet connection on the cooler and
leave from the outlet connection.
A flow switch must be installed in the field piping at the outlet of the cooler (in horizontal piping) and wired back to the unit control
panel using shielded cable. There should be a straight run of piping of at least five pipe diameters on either side of the flow switch.
The chilled water pump(s) installed in the piping system should discharge directly into the unit cooler. The pump(s) may
be controlled external to the unit - but an interlock must be wired to the unit control panel (as shown in the wiring diagram) so that the unit can start only upon proof of pump operation.
Flexible connections suitably selected for the fluid and pressure involved should be provided as mandatory in order to
minimize transmission of vibrations to the piping / building as some movement of the unit can be expected during normal operation. The piping and fittings must be separately supported to prevent any loading on the cooler.
35
The cooler must be protected by a strainer, preferably of 20 mesh, fitted as close as possible to the liquid inlet connection, and provided with a means of local isolation.
Thermometer and pressure gauge connections should be provided on the inlet and outlet connections of each cooler.
Pressure gauges are recommended to check the water pressure before and after the cooler and to determine if any variations occur in the cooler and system. When installing pressure taps to measure the amount of pressure drop across the water side of the cooler, the taps should be located in the water piping a minimum of 24 inches downstream from any connection (flange etc.) but as near to the cooler as possible.
Drain and air vent connections should be provided at all low and high points in the piping system to permit complete
drainage of the cooler and piping as well as to vent any air in the pipes. Hand shut-off valves are recommended for use in all lines to facilitate servicing.
The system water piping must be flushed thoroughly before connecting to the unit cooler. The cooler must not be
exposed to flushing velocities or debris released during flushing. It is recommended that a suitably sized bypass and valve arrangement is installed to allow flushing of the piping system. The bypass can be used during maintenance to isolate the cooler without disrupting flow to other units.
A make-up water tank should be provided in the condenser loop to supply make-up water to the condenser when using
an open type cooling tower.
A water treatment and cleaning system should be connected to the condenser loop to treat and clean the water when
using an open type cooling tower. The following is a suggested water piping arrangement for the condenser and the cooler at the chiller for single unit installations. For multiple chiller installations, each unit should be piped as shown:

TANK SCHEMATIC
The first decision a designer of a chilled water system must make is the selection of the temperature differential.
Temperature differential is the difference between the supply water and the return water temperatures. There is no one temperature difference for all chilled water systems. The actual temperature difference that is selected for a specific installation is determined by the cost of the cooling coils for various temperature differences and the effect that higher differences may have on the operating cost of the chillers. A careful balance between energy savings and first cost should be made by the designer. These are the decisions that must be made by the designer for each application and only experienced designers should entertain water temperature differences in excess of 120F on chilled water systems. A number of conditions must be recognized before making the final selection of temperature differential: a) An increase in temperature differential decreases water flow and therefore saves pumping energy. b) An increase in temperature differential may increase the cost of cooling coils that must operate with a higher mean temperature difference. c) Higher temperature differentials increase the possibilities of loss of temperature difference in coils due to dirt on the air side and chemical deposits on the water side of them. d) Laminar flow on the water side due to lower velocities at low loads on a coil is always a concern of the water system designer. The possibility of laminar flow is greater with higher temperature differences. Laminar flow reduces the heat-transfer rate and should not occur in a coil at any point in its load range. Many systems operate inefficiently because of coils that were selected at too low a friction loss through them at design load; therefore, at reduced loads and flows, they operate with laminar flow.
37
Control of Return Water Temperature: Return water temperature is one of the most important operating values for a
chilled water system. It tells the operator just how good a job the control system and coils are doing in converting energy from the chillers to the air or water systems that are cooling the building. This is such a basic criterion that it should be addressed early in the design of a chilled water system. The proper method of controlling return temperature is through the correct selection of control valves and cooling coils. In conclusion, one of the designers most important tasks is the selection of a sound temperature differential that will provide maximum possible system efficiency. The second step in this process is to ensure that the differential is maintained after the system is commissioned.
The water system should be configured to distribute the water efficiently with a minimum use of energy-wasting
devices. These devices are listed here: a) Three-way temperature control valves b) Balancing valves, manual or automatic c) Pressure-reducing or pressure-regulating valves
The friction for the piping should be calculated for all pipe runs, fittings and valves. Cooling coils should be selected with a high enough water velocity in the tubes to avoid laminar flow throughout the
normal load range imposed on the coils.
Coil control valves and their actuators should be sized to ensure that they can operate at all loads on the system
without lifting the valve head off the valve seat.
Expansion tank should be provided to so that water volume changes can be accommodated. Expansion tanks are
generally connected to the suction side of the pump - lowest pressure point.
Pumps in parallel must always operate at the same speed. There may be some exceptional cases where parallel
pumps are operated at different speeds, but only experienced designers should make evaluations for such a proposed operation. Also, it is better to use pumps of the same size when operating them in parallel. Variable speed pumps should be controlled so that pumps operating in parallel never have more than one percent difference in actual operating speed. Mixing of constant and variable speed pumps in parallel operation is wrong and leads to disastrous results.
Distribution pumps should be selected for maximum efficiency at the design condition and within the economic constraints of the project. Distribution pumps should be added and subtracted to avoid operation of pumps at points of high thrust and poor efficiency. Pump sequencing should achieve maximum possible system efficiency.
Differential pressure control (bypass) valves should never be installed at the pump discharges. Check valves should be provided in pump discharges when pumps are operating in parallel. Pump discharge check
valves should be center guided, spring loaded, disc type check valves and should be sized so that the check valve is full open at design flow rate. Generally this will require the check valve to be one pipe size smaller than the connecting piping.
Circuiting Chilled water to Multiple Chillers : There are fundamentals for the circuiting of chillers that should not be
violated in order to achieve maximum efficiency. Some of these are: a) Design the piping arrangement so that energy consumption of chillers is not increased. b) Arrange the piping so that all chillers receive the same return water temperature. c) Ensure that the required design water flow through the coolers is always maintained.
