VERSION WITH HYDRAULIC EQUIPMENT
LXH - LXC series ■ Hydraulic equipment LXH serie

The “all integrated” solution

The Plug and Cool solution offered by

POWERCIAT LXH - LXC
The hydraulic equipment integrates all the components
necessary for the correct operation of the installation :
PROPELLER

- 950 liters insulated buffer tank (LXH only)

- 80 liters expansion vessel
FANS

- Large choice of single or twin pumps for high head

pressure (1)
- Manometers with shut off valves
- Pressure relief valves (calibrated at 4 bars)
- Draining circuit
- Manual and automatic air vent
- Control of the assembly
- Antifreeze protection (optional)
The hydraulic equipment, whose components have been
selected in an optimal way, mounted and tested in factory,
makes the installation of units easy and economical.
The preparation/commissioning times and the space
required on site are therefore perfectly optimised.

(1) Our pumps are designed for operation on a closed water loop (low
NPSH). For other applications, consult us (open water circuit, important
intake height, etc).

inlet / outlet difference ˚C

The curve below represents the min. and max. admissible

temperature differences on pure water or glycol water as a
function of the fluid outlet temperature at the evaporator.
Check also minimum and maximum temperature differences
according to minimum and maximum flow (see curves "Hydraulic
characteristics").

Difference of temperature for performances calculation tables

Example :
For a water outlet : + 5 °C (∆T for performances calculation 5 °C)
∆T minimum : 3,1 °C Water temp : 8,1 / 5 °C
∆T maximum : 7,2 °C Water temp : 12,2 / 5 °C

MINIMUM CHILLED WATER PIPING VALUMES

POWERCIAT LX - LXH - LXC

Xtra Connect microprocessor fitted on POWERCIAT units allows a very flexible adjustement of the operation in comparison with
the drift of parameters, especially for hydraulic installation with low water volume.
The auto adaptive control of the units and modulating capacity control on each compressor avoid the use of anti-short cycle
function and the installation of buffer tank.

Minimum water volume ot the installation following sizes of units as below

Minimum chilled water piping volumes calculation for the following conditions :
- chilled water temperature : 12°C / 7°C
- condenser air inlet temperature : 35°C

NOTE :
Installations with important thermal variation or some industrial process designed to supply very constant water
temperature, must be equipped with buffer tank. (LXH alternative selection)

ADVISES FOR INSTALLATION
■ Location POWERCIAT LX

■ The POWERCIAT packaged units LX - LXC and LXH are ■ Hydraulic connections
designed for outdoor installation.
■ The hydraulic connections must be made following good
■ A free space of 2 meters around the unit is necessry for a engineering practice
good air circulation and maintenance.
■ Plan all the necessary accessories for an hydraulic
■ Choose the location in order to respect environement circuit :
(Acoustic level, etc,...)
- expansion vessel
■ The sound level problems must be analysed in detail
- Drains at low points
So, before installation of the unit, study the best position, if

PROPELLER
necessary with a sound technician. - Shut off valves
- Air vent at high points, etc.

FANS
If necessary, install the unit on antivibration mounts and
equip the hydraulic pipes with flexible connectors - Check sure that the installation water contents is sufficient
(recommended equipments)
- Plan, if required, a buffer tank

■ Electrical connections
■ Commissioning
■All the indications concerning electrical connections are
mentioned on the wiring diagram enclosed with the unit (they ■ In accordance with our commissioning and maintenance
must be respected). brochure
■ These connections must be made following good
engineering practice and in accordance to the norm in force.
■ Maintenance
■ Leave the control auxiliary circuit under voltage to allow
■ In accordance with our maintenance brochure
operation fo the crankcase heater and the antifreeze heater
(option)
■ The customer electrical supply line must be fitted with a ■ Subscribe to a maintenance contract
circuit breaker protection (to be supplied by the customer)

POWERCIAT LX - LXH - LXC

■ Antifreeze protection
■ If there is a risk of freezing :
a - either supply evaporator antifreeze protection option (LX
model) or evaporator antifreeze protection + hydraulic
equipment option (LXH - LXC models) if installation runs with
pure water
b - or protect the installation with glycol concentration
c - or drain the installation
NOTE : With the antifreeze protection, if there is a electrical
supply failure, the unit is not protected against freezing
anymore.
