supports.
 Check for proper earthing.
 Colour of silica Gel in main breather is blue / blockages in the breather pipe.
Neutral Grounding Resistor
 Visual inspection for any damage / cracks.
5.0) STARTUP PROCEDURES:
 After all the pre-start up checks are completed, the transformer can be energized
at no load by operating the breaker connected to the transformer primary, with the
tap changer at normal position.
 Check if there is any undue noise or vibration during operation.
 Gradually increase the load on the transformer.
 Check whether the voltage,current and frequency are as per name plate details.
If the transformer is being energized after a major overhauling job following
additional measures to be taken:-
 The transformer should be switched off after about three hours of energizing at no
load.
 Sometimes trapped air is released and gets accumulated in the Buchcholz Relay.
 The Buchholz relay should be checked for collection of air/gas.
 Air should also be released from Bushings, Bushings Pockets, Main Tank covers,
Radiators etc.
 The transformer can now be energized and loaded gradually to full load in about
three hours time.
 During the gradual increase in the load, check whether the voltages, currents and
frequency are balanced.
 During the period and for further three hours, transformer should be under
observation.
 Check whether the voltage, currents and frequency on the HV & LV sides are
balanced, increase the load to the rated value and check that the noise is not
appreciable. A good transformer operates with a healthy hum.
 Check that all instruments, OTI, WTI, MOG are reading properly and all the radiators
are uniformly hot.
 Check that there is no gas accumulation in Buchcholz Relay.
 Observe the operation for a period of 24 hours. If the operation is satisfactory, the
transformer is kept on load and readings of voltage, current and frequency on all
the phases of both HV & LV sides are checked.
6.0) OPERATIONAL MONITORING:

Page | 25
 Monitor and record the readings of Winding Temperature Indicator and Oil
Temperature Indicator. Check that observed temperatures are not high for the
prevailing load and ambient temperature.
 Continuous over loading of the transformer beyond rated capacity should be
avoided. If the connected load is more than the rated load capacity, reduce non
–priority load.
 Always Check for Improper tap position as it can cause excessive core loss and
consequently excessive heating.
 Check whether the voltage, currents and frequency on the HV & LV sides are
balanced.
 Check the oil level in conservator/transformer and top it up whenever required to
preset levels.
 Check the condition of silica gel. Reactivate the silica gel if silica gel has turned pink
in colour.
 Check if there is any undue noise/humming or vibration during operation.
7.0) STOPPING ACTIVITY / SHUTDOWN:
 Inform all the concerned officers about the shutdown.
 Work permit to be prepared and circulated among the concerned officers.
 Ensure that the connected load is entirely transferred to the other Transformer via
ATS facility provided in the HT Panel / PMCC Panel.
 Run the transformer on no load for a few minutes.
 Incoming electric power and auxiliary supplies are to de-energised and positively
isolated (from all possible sources) locked out (through a permit system) throughout
the duration of overhauling work and a caution board indicating the nature of work
should be displayed near the isolating point.
8.0) AUTOMATION/INTERLOCKING:
Protection of transformers is taken care of by Numerical Relay REF615. The relay has
the following trip circuits
 Instantaneous over-current 50 – This relay is operated in case of over-burden on
transformer and without any time delay.
 IDMT over-current 51 – IDMT Over current relays are inverse definite minimum time
relay which operate in case of over-burden on transformer and with a set time
delay.
 Instantaneous Earth Fault 50N - The high set element is meant for instantaneous
operation at high values of fault current to limit the stress on the transformer and
may have an operating time of about 20 milli-seconds.

Page | 26
 IDMT Earth Fault 51N - IDMT Earth Fault relays are inverse definite minimum time relay
which operate with a time delay at high values of fault current to limit the stress on
the transformer.
 Buchcholz Relay Alarm and Trip 63TX – An incipient fault within the transformer
generates small bubbles of gas which in passing upwards towards the conservator,
get trapped in the Buchcholz relay thereby causing the oil level to fall as a result of
which the upper element rotates and when sufficient oil has been displaced the
mercury switch contacts close thus completing the external circuit which is
connected to audible alarm. In the event of a serious fault within the transformer,
the gas generation is more violent and the oil displaced by the gas bubbles flows
through the connecting pipe to the conservator. This abnormal flow of oil causes
the lower element to be rotated thus actuating the contacts of the second
(bottom) mercury switch thereby completing the external circuit which is
connected to trip the circuit breaker/breakers to isolate the transformer.
 Winding Temperature High Alarm and Trip – Winding temperature of the transformer
windings is to monitored using the Winding temperature indicator. The indicator
gives the continuous reading of the temperature of the windings. The system has
alarm and trip facilities. The ambient temperature is considered as 42 deg C. The set
temperature for Alarm and trip are as under:
Alarm – 87 deg C. Trip – 97 deg C
 Oil Temperature High Alarm and Trip – Oil temperature of the transformer windings is
to monitored using the Winding temperature indicator. The indicator gives the
continuous reading of the temperature of the windings. The system has alarm and
trip facilities. The ambient temperature is considered as 42 deg C. The set
temperature for Alarm and trip are as under:
Alarm – 82 deg C. Trip – 92 deg C
 MOG Alarm – Magnetic Oil level gauge is provided to indicate the oil level in the
Conservator Tank. Fall in the oil level in the conservator tank below the set level
results in an alarm.
 PRV Trip – A pressure relief valve is placed on the transformer tank. Any abnormal
rise in the pressure inside the tank due to an incipient fault will result in activating the
PRV and the transformer will be tripped.
 Fire fighting interlocks with FACP panel for the transformer yard.

3.0) OPERATING CONDITIONS


Operating Conditions for DG set

 Ambient temperature: Maximum + 40 °C.


 Maximum 24 h average + 35 °C.
 Minimum (according to “minus 5 indoor class”) - 5 °C.
 Room should be well ventilated.
Location
 Acoustic enclosure should be located considering wind direction ensuring that
there is no obstruction to natural wind flow and the prevailing wind do not enter into
the radiator / exhaust outlet.
 For humid / coastal atmospheric applications, anti condensation heaters are
mandatory for alternator.
 For aesthetic reasons, consider exhaust placement in relation to the building. Over a
period of time, exhaust gas carbon deposits will tend to accumulate on any nearby
wall or structure.
Enclosure placement / Enclosure room
 Ensure sufficient lighting / illumination at the installation space.
 Sufficient clearance must be available to open doors and to carry out any
maintenance activities both sides and rear.
 Also ensure sufficient overhead clearances are provided.
 The generator room / area around enclosure should not be used for storage
purposes.
 Do not the place enclosure beside heat generating equipment, or directly below
water or steam pipes or in the vicinity of corrosive substances or vapours, metal
particles and dust.
Normal precautions and safety
 The hot exhaust gas must never be directed towards hazardous area.
 Never operate the generator unless all guards, covers, shields and other safety items
are properly installed.
Ventilation
 Cross ventilation and free flow of cool, clean and fresh air should flow from
alternator end to engine.

Page | 59
Others
 All day tank must not be located inside the DG shed.
 Service storage tank should be located such that piping will have minimum and
controlled restriction
4.0) PRE-START UP ACTIVITIES

 Make a general visual inspection on the engine and alternator. Check if there is any
breakage, crack, indentation, leakage or looseness.
 Never operate the generating set before removing any fault, if any.
 Take out foreign materials such as keys, tools, cleaning wool, papers etc. on the
engine and the alternator.
 Check the engine oil level on the dip stick. Refill with an appropriate oil if it is low. Oil
level must be above the “L” mark and as close as possible to the “H” mark in the
dipstick. Never operate the Engine if the oil level is below the “L” mark or above the
“H” mark.
 Check the fuel level and top-up if necessary.
 Look at the water level by opening the radiator tap. If it is inadequate add more
coolant. Coolant level must be 30 mm. lower than the water filling neck.
 Engine cooling water must include antifreeze according to the coolest weather
conditions in the area. A mixture of 50% antifreeze and 50% water provides a good
protection in all area.
 Check the air filter gauge. Clean or replace the air filter, if necessary. Keep the inlet
opening open.
 Make sure that the generating set can easily take air from the environment.
 Check the battery connection cables. Take care to tighten the loosened battery
terminals with spanner and, cover with special substance and keep clean in order
to avoid oxidation.
 Ensure that the condition of all fuel filters, oil filters and air filters are good.
 Check if the circuit breaker switch is in OFF position.
 Make sure that the emergency stop button is not pressed.
 Make sure that all the relays in the AMF panel are reset.
 Make sure that the earthing of DG body, neutral, panel doors etc. are intact.
 Check that no loose materials are lying near generator set.
If the engine is being energized after a major overhauling job, the following
additional checks are to be carried out:-
 Ensure that insulation tests have been carried out for the power cables.
 Make sure that all the trip/alarm/annunciation systems have been checked.

Page | 60
 Ensure that all the metering systems have been checked.
 Check the tightness of all electrical connections.
 Check the tightness of all earthing connections.
 Ensure that all the earth pits are tested.
 Check if all the components in the circuit are as per the ratings.
5.0) START UP PROCEDURES:
Manual Operation

 Check the precautions and controls starting up the generating set.


 To initiate a start sequence in MANUAL, press the push on the DG Control Panel till
button and the start sequence is initiated.
 After fuel solenoid is energized, and then the starter motor is engaged.
 To prevent permanent damage to the cranking motor, do not cranked the engine
for more than 10 seconds continuously. If the engine fails to start after about three
successive attempts, with an interval of two minutes between successive starts then
the starter system should not be operated and the fuel system should be checked
for any faults.
 When the engine fires, the starter motor is disengaged and locked out at 50 Hz
measured from the Alternator output.
Automatic Mode of Operation Starting with PowerCom Controller and AMF
 At the time of Mains power failure, voltage monitoring relay will give feedback to
the control system that Mains supply has failed.
 After a delay of 15 seconds, the logical circuit will give start command to the DG
set.
 After the DG starts running, the neutral contactor will close automatically.
 This contactor’s contact completes the closing circuit of the DG contactor.
 Whether the start sequence is initiated by mains (utility) failure or remote input, the
following sequence is followed:
 After Start Delays the Fuel Solenoid is energized, then one second later, Starter
Motor is engaged the engine is cranked for 10 second period. If the engine fails to
fire during this cranking attempt then the starter motor is disengaged for a 10
second rest period. If this sequence continues beyond the 3 staring attempts, the
start sequence will be terminated and Fail to Start fault will be illuminated.
 When the engine fires, the starter motor are disengaged and “Safety On” Timer
activated.
6.0) OPERATIONAL MONITORING:

Page | 61
 Check for any abnormal noise or vibration on the generating set.
 Check for any leaks in the fuel system, coolant system, lubrication system and the
exhaust system.
 Monitor the generating set operation by means of the gauges on the control panel.
 Check the engine temperature and oil pressure by means of the gauges on the
panel.
 The Oil temperature gauge should normally read between 167 deg F (75 deg C)
and 221 deg F (105 deg C). Under full load conditions, an oil temperature of 240
deg F (116 deg C) for a short period is not a cause for alarm.
 Engine Oil pressure must be indicated on the Gauge within 15 seconds after starting.
If the Oil pressure is not registered within 15 seconds, shut off the engine
immediately.
 Normal engine pressure at 221 deg F (105 deg C) should be between 3.0 and 7.0
kg./sq.cm.
 Water temperature should range between 75 deg C (167 deg F) and 95 deg C (203
deg F). Maximum engine coolant temperature should not exceed 95 deg C.
 The engine exhaust is a good indicator of engine operation and performance. A
smoky exhaust may be due to a poor grade of fuel, dirty air cleaner, over-fuelling or
other conditions. If the engine exhaust is smoky, corrective action should be taken.
 Monitor the generating set outlet voltage and frequency by means of the gauges
on the panel.
 Check on the voltmeter, if the voltage between phases is 415 V and between
phase and neutral is 230 V.
 Check that the frequency at idle is 50-51 Hz.
 There is an LED in the display which indicated that the Battery is not charging. So, if
the LED glows when the engine is running, it indicates that the charging alternator is
not generating voltage.
 Putting the generating set under load must be done as follows:

 Set the alternator outlet switch on the panel to ON position.

 Set the load switches (or fuses) on the distribution panel to ON position one by
one. This way, the generating set cannot be suddenly put under full load.
Otherwise, the engine stalling or alternator winding insulation deformation or
burning can occur.
 Never operate the generating set before removing any fault, if any.
7.0) STOPPING ACTIVITY:

Page | 62
Manual Mode:
 At the time of Mains power restoration, DG power contactor will be trip manually
through push button located on AMF Panel.
 After tripping DG contactor, Mains power contactor will close and feed Mains
power.
 Now, to stop the DG at the time of Mains restoration, stop push button will be
pressed manually.
 It is important to idle an engine for 3-5 minutes after a full load operation before
shutting it down. This allows the lubricating oil and water to carry away heat away
from the combustion chamber, bearings, shaft etc.
 If any Engine fault is there during running of DG Set, Controller will give trip
command to DG Set with annunciation at AMF Panel.
 In case of emergency, press the red colour Emergency stop button provided on the
DG body near the Control Panel and also on the AMF Panel.
Automatic Mode:
 When the Mains supply gets restored, the load transfer to the mains supply will be
done through logical circuit.
 Circuit will trip DG Power contactor and close mains power contactor
automatically.
 After the Mains power contactor is closed, the circuit will give stop command to DG
Set.
 DG will stop after cooling set time in controller.
 Before closing of any Power contactor, neutral contactor will close automatically
through logical circuits.
 If any Engine fault is there during running of DG Set, Controller will give trip
command to DG Set with annunciation at AMF Panel.
8.0) AUTOMATION / INTERLOCKING / PROTECTION:

Basic interlocks are given in DG both for the Engine and the Alternator for Protection
Purposes, and are mainly the relays / sensors which will give warning / cause the DG

6.0) OPERATIONAL MONITORING:

 During normal operation, i.e. when the UPS input supply is present and within
specification, both the rectifier and inverter sections are active and the static switch
is turned on to connect the inverter output to the critical load bus. The battery
circuit breaker is also closed and the battery is therefore permanently float charged
at the d.c. bus voltage level.
 As the unit outputs are connected in parallel, the System checks that the inverter

EMERGENCY STOP – It is housed beneath a safety cover to prevent inadvertent
operation. When the emergency stop switch is pressed it disables the static switch
block entirely (so removing load power). It also disables the rectifier and inverter,
and trips the battery circuit breaker. Under normal circumstances it does not
remove UPS input power since this applied through a manually controlled external
isolator; however, if the UPS input supply is connected via a circuit breaker having
an electrical trip facility, another section of emergency power off can be used to
drive the external circuit breaker’s trip.

8.0) AUTOMATION/INTER-LOCKING:

 Mains Failure
If the Mains power fails or is out of tolerance, the rectifier will go off automatically,
while the Inverter will continue to operate on power from the battery for a period of
time which depends on the load and the capacity of the battery. If the mains
supply has not returned within this time, the Inverter will go off automatically and an
alarm message will appear on the UPS operator control panel display. Critical load

Page | 84
will not be interrupted in the event of a drop or return of the AC power mains.
 Return of power mains
When the mains return within the required tolerance, the Rectifier will start up again
automatically and gradually (power walk in), supplying power to the Inverter and
recharging the battery at the same time. There will be no interruption of the critical
load.
 Off-Battery
If the battery system only is taken out of service for maintenance, it is disconnected
from the rectifier/ charger and inverters by means of (an) external disconnect
breaker(s). The UPS shall continue to function and meet all of the specified steady-
state performance criteria, except for the power outage back-up time capability.
 UPS Module fault
 In the event of an Inverter fault, the Static Transfer Switch will automatically
transfer the load onto the Bypass Mains with no interruption. In such an event,
request qualified technical assistance.
 In the event of a fault in a unit, the unit's Static Transfer Switch will automatically
exclude the unit from the system. If the system is still capable of providing the
required load, the remaining units will continue to supply the load with no
interruption. When the units still present in the system are no longer capable of
fulfilling power requirements, the load will automatically be transferred onto the
MSS Bypass Mains. The load will be transferred with no interruption if the Inverters
are synchronised with the network; if this is not the case, there will be an
interruption lasting about 20 milliseconds.
 Overload
 In the event of an overload at the Inverter output which lasts longer than the
typical time/ current, the Inverter will shut down and the Static Transfer Switch will
automatically transfer the load onto the MSS Bypass Mains with no interruption. If
the overload falls within the typical time/ current that has been specified, the
load will be returned to the inverters when the power drops to a level which can
be supported by the number of active units in the system.
 In the event of a short circuit in the output, the load will normally be transferred
onto the MSS Bypass Mains, which will cause the Inverter to shut down; this switch
is determined above all by the features of the protective devices in use in the
system. In either case, an alarm message will appear on the UPS operator control
panel display.
 The control logic system constantly monitors load requirements and controls the

Page | 85
power supplied by the UPS modules. In the event that an overload condition is
sustained for greater than a preset time, the load will transfer to the mains bypass
supply, when the number of active modules is unable to satisfy load
requirements. The load returns to the inverter supply if the power is reduced it a
value that can be sustained by the number of active modules in the system.
 Maintenance Bypass
A second bypass circuit contained in the UPS cabinet, identified as the
'Maintenance Bypass' line is included to enable a 'raw' mains supply to be made
available to the load while facilitating a safe working environment for carrying out
scheduled UPS system maintenance or troubleshooting. The circuit is manually
selected by the Maintenance Bypass Isolator which can be padlocked in the OFF
position.
WARNING
The internal maintenance bypass must not be used when the UPS system is
comprised of more than two UPS modules in parallel.
CAUTION
If an automatic circuit breaker device is not present in the input distribution panel,
there remains a dangerously high voltage at the output bus-bars of the UPS module
that is switched off.
 The annunciation / alarm system comprises of the following
Sl.No. Display Message / Interpretation
Alarm
Over temperature is sensed by a
normally- closed thermostat (90 deg C
operating) fitted to each inverter heat

arises, the audible alarm will accompany
this message; the inverter stops and load
transfers to Bypass after 3 minutes.
This message informs the operator that
the inverter has been switched OFF and
OVERTEMP.
2 that the load has been transferred to

The inverter overload has an inverse
3 OVERLOAD PRESENT
load/time characteristic – i.e. it will accept

Page | 86
125% overload for 10 minutes and 150%
overload for 60 seconds. If this
characteristic is exceeded the load
transfers to the bypass supply, the inverter
stops and the overload alarm
annunciates. The [OVERLOAD PRESENT]
alarm will annunciate as soon as the load
exceeds 100% of the UPS rating, and the
load will transfer to Bypass some time later,
depending on the degree of overload
present.
This message informs the operator that the
OVERLOAD

SHUTDOWN
to an inverter overload.
Battery discharge has continued beyond
a preset value. The inverter will shut down;

bypass. If bypass is not available, any load
connected to the UPS will be without
power.
The RECT. OFF alarm is active whenever
the battery charger (rectifier) is not
producing its correct output voltage. This
can be caused by an operator selection

8.0) AUTOMATION / INTERLOCKING / PROTECTION

PROTECTION:
 AC input voltage surges: Surge suppresser
 Diode/SCR against voltage surge: RC Surge suppresser
 Control circuit: HRC Fuse
 Output short circuit: SCR controller, MCCB
 Battery Current Limiting Circuit: CLC Battery current limit protection is also provided
in this charger. During Float charging, if battery draws more current than the set
value, output voltage of both the Chargers will decrease and thus limit the Battery
current. During Boost charging this protection will get bypassed.
INTERLOCK:
 Normally both the chargers will be ON in Float mode and supply station load as well
as trickle charging current to the battery. At this time both the chargers & battery
are in parallel across the load. Hence, if one charger fails other charger will feed
total load of the system without any interruption.
 When AC Input supply of both the charger fails, battery bank will feed DC load of
the system through DC contactors C2A & C2B and get discharged.
 After resumption of AC supply of both the chargers, they will switch ON in Float
mode automatically and starts feeding Load as well as charging current to the
Battery. The scheme is so designed that at a time only one charger can be select
for Boost charging.
 If battery requires Boost charging, shift any one charger to Boost mode manually by
pressing push button (PB1A/PB1B and PB2A/2B). Also, charger A will shift in Boost
mode only if Charger B is healthy and switch ON in Float mode. During Boost
charging DC Contactor C2A will get energize and the system load gets isolated
from charger A. Thus Charger B will feed the system load and Charger A will charge
the battery. After set time of Timer T1A, Charger A will shift to Float mode
automatically.
 If during Boost charging if Charger B fails, Charger A will shift to float mode
automatically. Thus DC Contactor C2A will drop out automatically and charger A

Page | 98
gets connected with the system load and takes the system load.
 If power fails during Boost charging, DC contactor (C2A/C2B) will get de-energized
automatically and full Battery voltage will appear across the load. The continuity of
DC supply to the DC bus is maintained even for a short period of 150 to 300
milliseconds (contactor closing time) through a silicon diode i.e. tap diode MR3
connected to appropriate tap cell - 70th cell of the battery bank in case of 110V
Charger and 139th cell in case of 220V Charger.
 Charger A & Charger B will trip due to DC output over voltage. If DC output voltage
of any charger exceeds the set value, respective charger will trip. Press push-button
PB3A/PB3B (CH. Reset) to restart the charger.

CHAPTER 15-SKIN EFFECT HEAT TRACING
This chapter describes the Standard Operating Procedure for electrical heat tracing in
skin effect methods.

1.0) INTRODUCTION

Skin effect Heat Tracing system is used in finished products area for Sulphur lines. The
operating principle of a skin effect heating system is based on two phenomena:
proximity effect and skin effect. The heating device is a carbon steel pipe called a
"heat tube" with a specially designed skin effect conductor inside. The heat tube
and insulated conductor are joined together at one end, while at the opposite end
the heat tube and the conductor are connected across an AC voltage source
When the system is energized, current flows through the conductor to the end point,
then is concentrated toward the inner surface of the heat tube by the skin effect
phenomenon and the attendant proximity effect. This electromagnetic interaction
ensures that the return current travels on the inner surface of the heat tube with
virtually no measurable voltage on the outer surface. The current flow through the
impedance of the inner skin of the heat tube generates heat.

Manual mode shut down and startup sequence


AIR-COOLED SCROLL CHILLER
The chiller is intended for evaporation of R-407C gas at lower pressure and thereby
absorbed in heat from surrounding cooling medium. Liquid refrigerant from condenser
at reduced pressure through expansion valve is extended inside tube which has inner
star and outer integral extended fin for more surface area and the water in the shell
comes into contact with the tube and thereby gets chilled. Heat from water is taken
form the refrigerant gas and sent back to the compressor. The chiller consists of a
bundle of tubes header through which gas passes and water inlet and outlet
connection in the shell.

 Chiller should be provided with 2 sets of thermostats:


 1 set for controlling compressor capacity so that water temperature remain
within the specified limit
 1 set of anti freeze thermostat to prevent forming of ice. The setting of
temperatures of thermostats should be checked at the earlier interval for
healthy performance of the chiller.
 Soap bubble test in the header should be carried out at regular intervals for
checking of leakage of refrigerant.
If leakage is found following activities should be carried out :
 Tightened the fasteners .
 Check gasket condition, if leakage is through gasket, change the gasket
.
 If tube leakage is suspected, then either plug the tube or re-expand with
higher expander.
Air-cooled Chiller Systems
Starting the system
 Ensure that the crankcase heater is always ‘ON’ when the compressor is ‘OFF’.
 Ensure input voltage is within specified range (380 - 420 volts).
 Ensure all valves on the waterlines are in open condition.
 Check water level in expansion tank.
 Be certain all control sensor bulbs are inserted completely in their respective
thermo wells.
 Check that the recommended fuses are in the power circuit disconnect switch
and then close the switch.
 Ensure crankcase heater supply is connected before disconnect switch as shown
in wiring diagram.
 Start the chilled water pumps.
 Start AHUs, or other airhandling equipments.
 Set chilled water thermostat to the desired water temperature.
 ‘Switch on’ the chiller from the micro computer panel located on the chiller.

Page | 132
 In case of scroll compressors, if an unusual noise is heard on starting, and there is
no change in suction pressure and discharge pressure, the direction of rotation
of compressor is wrong. Reverse the wiring terminals of the compressor and
again check for noise, and suction & discharge pressures. This can be eliminated
with the provision of a safety electrical device on the control panel, which
provides the unit reverse polarity protection and single phase protection.
 When compressor starts, a flow of liquid will be noted in the liquid indicator.After
several minutes of operation, the bubbles disappear and full flow of liquid occurs
when the unit is operating normally.
 Check the operation of the safety control switches and indicating lights on the
control panel to be sure that they function to stop compressor motor in case the
settings are exceeded.
 Check compressor suction superheat after steady operation has been
established and leaving chilled liquid has been pulled down to the required
temperature. Compressor suction superheat is the difference between the
actual temperature of the main refrigerant gas entering the compressor and the
saturation temperature corresponding to the suction pressure as shown in a
standard pressure-temperature table for R407C. Compressor suction superheat is
directly related to evaporator (cooler) superheat, which is controlled by thermal
expansion valve adjustment. A low compressor suction superheat indicates a
low cooler superheat (approaching flooding condition of the evaporator) and
vice versa.
 The thermal expansion valve is factory-set to control at 5.5oC superheat,which, in
normal operation, produces a compressor suction superheat of approx. 6oC. It is
not recommended to adjust thermostatic expansion valve in the field.
 Check setting of controls as under (New Saginomia Preset Type) LP Cutout - set
at 35 psig (Check with gauge) HP Cutout - set at 450 psig (Check with gauge)
Antifreeze - set at 5 degree Centigrade (Check with thermometer) Thermostat -
set as per requirement
Stopping procedure
 Switch off the chiller by pressing ON/OFF key only.
 Stop chilled water pump.
 Stop air handling equipments.
