SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installing, starting up, and servicing air-conditioning equip-
ment can be hazardous due to system pressures, electrical
components, and equipment location (roofs, elevated struc-
tures, etc.).
Only trained, qualified installers and service mechanics
should install, start up, and service this equipment (Fig. 1).
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance func-
tions such as cleaning coils. All other operations should be
performed by trained service personnel.
When working on the equipment, observe precautions in the
literature and on tags, stickers, and labels attached to the
equipment.
• Follow all safety codes.
• Wear safety glasses and work gloves.
• Keep quenching cloth and fire extinguisher nearby when
brazing.
• Use care in handling, rigging, and setting bulky
equipment. See Tables 1A-1D for Physical Data. Refer Fig. 1 — Typical 30RA Unit (010-018 Shown)
to Fig. 2 for unit weights.
Manufacturer reserves the right to discontinue, or change at any time, specifications or designs without notice and without incurring obligations.

Step 4 — Cooler Fluid and Drain Piping Con-
nections (Units with Factory-Installed Hy- 3
dronic Packages)
WATER SYSTEM OVERVIEW — The 30RA chillers with
factory-installed hydronic packages are designed for use with
closed systems, meaning that there is no more than one water- 5
air interface in the water loop. Cooling tower loops, for
example, have two water-air interfaces (sump and nozzles) and
would thus be classified as open, whereas a correctly designed
chilled water loop with the only water-air interface being in the
expansion tank is closed. Since closed and open water systems
behave very differently, these instructions assume that the
chilled water loop is closed. A system installed incorrectly such
that air is not handled properly — pipe leaks, vent leaks, air in
pipes, etc. — may behave as an open system and thus have
unsatisfactory operation. Pump seal wear can also cause leaks
that cause poor system operation.
2 4
Proper closed system design and installation procedures
should be followed closely. The system must be constructed
with pressure tight components and thoroughly tested for 7
installation leaks. Factory-supplied hydronic systems are avail-
able with single or dual (for back-up) pumps. The factory-
installed system includes all of the components within the 1
dashed lines in Fig. 10.
Installation of water systems should follow sound engineer-
ing practice as well as applicable local and industry standards. 6
