G EN ER AL I N F O R M A T I O N
The units described in this manual may be referred to below as “WATER CHILLERS”
This manual is addressed to personnel responsible for installing, using and servicing the unit.
The units were constructed using components made by premium quality manufacturers and the entire design, production and
control process was carried out in compliance with standard ISO 9001.
In the majority of applications the liquid in the user circuit is water so henceforth the term “WATER” will be utilised, even if
the liquid in the user service is different (for example mixtures of water and ethylene glycol).
Hereinafter the expression “PRESSURE” is used to indicate relative pressure.
The following symbols are to be found on the decals affixed to the unit and also in the dimensional drawings and refrigerant
circuit diagrams in this manual.
The meaning of each symbol is indicated below:

Process water inlet Process water outlet

Indication of the axis of reference for lifting


Drain point to empty the unit of water

OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
7 Chapter 2 - Safety

EN CHAPTER 2
ENGLISH

SAFETY
This unit is designed to ensure the best guarantees of safety and efficiency in its intended use, on the condition that it is
installed, commissioned, and serviced in compliance with the instructions given in this manual.
The manual must therefore be studied by all those who want to install, use or maintain the unit.
The unit contains electrical components that operate at mains voltage and also moving parts.
All work on the unit must be carried out only after disconnecting the electrical supply. Maintenance operations involving
work inside the unit must be performed by skilled and adequately qualified personnel equipped with suitable protection
means (active and passive, e.g. work gloves) to ensure maximum safety.
Keep unauthorized persons (e.g. children) away from the place of installation of the unit.

2.1 General
When handling or maintaining the unit and all auxiliary equipment, personnel must operate with care observing all
instructions concerning health and safety at the installation site.
ATTENTION

Numerous accidents that occur during operation and maintenance of the units are caused by failure to comply with
basic safety rules and precautions.

An accident can often be avoided by recognising a situation that is potentially hazardous.


The user must ensure that all personnel involved in operating and servicing the unit have read and understood all the
warnings, precautions, prohibitions and notes given in this manual and affixed to the unit. Improper operation or maintenance
of the unit and auxiliary equipment can be dangerous and can cause serious or fatal accidents.
We cannot anticipate every possible circumstance which might constitute a potential hazard.
The warnings in this manual are therefore not all-inclusive.
If the user adopts operational procedures or uses tools or working procedures that are not specifically recommended, he must
take care to ensure that the unit and the auxiliary equipment are not damaged or made unsafe and that no risks emerge in
relation to persons or property. Any improper use of the unit will relieve the manufacturer from any liability for possible
personal injury or property damage.
Arbitrary modifications made to the unit will automatically invalidate all forms of guarantee provided by the manufacturer.
ATTENTION

The hot / chilled water produced by units cannot be used for hygiene/sanitary or food applications. If it is
used for the above purposes, the installer must install an intermediate exchanger.
If the intermediate exchanger is not present, the installer must affix a warning notice to the effect “non potable
water”.

2.2 User circuit liquids


The user circuit liquids must be compatible with the materials used for the construction of the unit’s hydraulic circuit.
The expression “liquids” means: water, water with additives and/or glycol. Additive and glycol suppliers must guarantee
compatibility with the materials. For further information refer to “4.9 Materials in contact with the liquid to be cooled”.
ATTENTION

If the liquids in the user circuit contain hazardous substances (such as ethylene glycol, for example), any liquid that is
expelled from a leakage area must be collected because it is noxious for the environment. The disposal of hazardous liquids
must be handled by specialised companies authorised for the treatment of hazardous wastes.

2.3 Lifting and transport precautions


Avoid injury by using a hoist to lift heavy loads.
Check all chains, hooks, shackles and slings are in good condition and are of the correct capacity.
They must be tested and approved according to local safety regulations.
Cables, chains or ropes must never be attached directly to lifting eyes.
Always use an appropriate shackle or hook properly positioned. Arrange lifting cables so that there are no sharp bends.
Use a spreader bar to avoid lateral loading of hooks and eyebolts.
When a load is lifted from the ground keep well clear of the area beneath the load and the immediately surrounding area.

the technical documentation attached to the unit.
ENGLISH

2.5 Precautions to be adopted during operation


The unit must be operated by competent personnel under the guidance of a qualified supervisor.
All water pipelines must be painted or clearly marked in compliance with local safety prescriptions in force in the place of
installation.

ATTENTION

Do not remove or tamper with safety devices, protections, or the insulating materials installed in the unit and in the
auxiliary equipment.

All electrical connections must comply with local codes.


The unit and its auxiliary equipment must be connected to earth and protected against short circuits and overloads.
When mains power is switched on, lethal voltages are present in the electrical circuits and extreme caution must be exercised
if any work must be carried out on the electrical system.
Do not open the electrical equipment guard panels while the circuit is energized. Operations that require intervention with the
electrical circuit energized must be performed only by qualified personnel using appropriate equipment and wearing apparel
and devices designed to protect against electrical hazards.

2.6 Maintenance precautions


ATTENTION

When it is necessary to discharge waste material do not pollute water pipelines, groundwater or watercourses.
Avoid the combustion of materials that could produce fumes that are toxic and harmful when released into the atmosphere.
Protect the environment by using only approved methods of disposal.

Keep a written record of all work carried out on the unit and the auxiliary equipment. The frequency and the nature of the
work required over a period can reveal adverse operating conditions that should be corrected.

ATTENTION

Use only the refrigerant specified on the data plate of the unit.

Make sure that all instructions concerning operation and maintenance are strictly followed and that the complete unit, with all
accessories and safety devices, is kept in good working order. The accuracy of pressure and temperature gauges must be
regularly checked. If values are discovered that exceed the permissible tolerances, the gauges must be replaced.

ATTENTION

Do not perform welding procedures or other operations that can produce heat in the vicinity of elements containing oil
or flammable liquids. Systems which may contain oil or flammable liquids must be completely purged and cleaned, e.g. with
steam, before carrying out such operations.

Components in the vicinity must be protected with non-inflammable material and, if the operation is to be performed close to
parts of the lubrication system or in the vicinity of components that may contain oil or inflammable liquids, the system must
first be purged.
Never use an open flame as a light source to inspect parts of the unit.
For all units establish a suitable time interval for cleaning procedures.

ATTENTION

If replacement parts are needed use only original spares.

Take care not to damage pressure limiting devices.


All guards must be refitted after carrying out repair or maintenance work.

ENGLISH
work has been performed on the electrical connections or on the power supply sectioning device.

Do not use flammable liquids to clean the unit when it is running. If chlorinated hydrocarbon non-flammable fluids are used
for cleaning, safety precautions must be taken against any toxic vapours that may be released.

ATTENTION

Before removing any panels or dismantling any part of the unit, carry out the following operations:
- Isolate the unit from the electrical power supply by disconnecting the supply upstream of the power feeding line.
- Lock out the disconnect switch in the “OFF” position by fitting a padlock.
- Affix a tag to the disconnect switch handle stating “WORK IN PROGRESS - DO NOT SWITCH ON”.
- Do not set the electrical power switch to ON or attempt to start the unit if it has been tagged out with a warning sign.

Coloured tracers can be used in service-maintenance operations.


Inspect all refrigerant circuit unions including connectors, flanges, and more generally all critical points (open unions) in
order to prevent possible leakage of refrigerant gas.

2.7 Refrigerant gases


The units are charged with R410A refrigerant
Do not replace or mix one gas with another because different gases are not mutually compatible.
To clean out a very heavily contaminated refrigerant system, e.g. after a refrigerant compressor burnout, a qualified
refrigeration engineer must be consulted to carry out the task.
The manufacturer’s instructions and local safety regulations should always be observed when handling and storing high
pressure gas cylinders.

ENGLISH

DESCRIPTION
4.1 Components
Data for materials are referred to standard units. Non-standard materials may be utilised in order to meet specific
requirements. In this case refer to the offer data.
The units are basically composed of the following parts:
• Refrigerant compressor
• Condenser
• Evaporator
• Tank
• Pump
• Frame/cabinet
• Electronic controller
4.1.1 Refrigerant circuit
TAEevo Tech 015÷351 models feature a single refrigerant circuit with one or two compressors connected in parallel
(tandem).
TAEevo Tech 402÷602 models feature two refrigerant circuits with two compressors connected in parallel (tandem).
Each refrigerant circuit is equipped with the following components:
• refrigerant fluid utilised R410A;
• hermetic scroll compressor;
• pressure switch for fans with On/Off control (only TAEevo Tech 015÷351);
• high and low refrigerant pressure switches;
• high pressure transducer for electronic fan speed control and for unloading (not available in models TAEevo
Tech 015÷020 and TAEevo Tech 031÷051 with centrifugal fans);
• liquid solenoid valve (with NO FERRUS version and plate evaporator);
• thermostatic lamination valve complete with external pressure equalizer;
• filter dryer;
• liquid sight-glass;
• refrigerant pressure gauges (from TAEevo Tech 031);
• check valve (TAEevo Tech 402÷602 only);
• schrader service valves;
For more information consult the attached diagrams.

4.2 Compressors
The compressors are of the SCROLL type and are characterised by high energy efficiency, low vibration and consequent very
low noise during normal operation.
The compressors are cooled by the refrigerant on the suction line, protected against possible overheating of the windings by
an internal module that monitors windings temperature, and protected upline by thermal magnetic cutouts. These components
are housed in an enclosed compartment, but they are readily accessible.

NOTE
During the short periods of starting and stopping the compressor you may hear a metallic noise due respectively to the initial
contact between the coils and to the momentary reversal of their rotation. This noise is absolutely normal and does not affect
the reliability of the compressor.

ATTENTION

At the time of the first start following a prolonged stoppage lasting several days, ensure the crankcase heater of each
compressor is switched on at least 12 hours before pressing the start button.

NOTE
TAEevo Tech 402÷602 units can be optionally fitted with compressor stating with a Soft Starter.
The Soft Starter is linked to each compressor and it serves to limit peak current at the time of compressor starting.
- Units equipped with soft starters can operate up to a maximum ambient temperature of 40 °C, beyond which the unit simply
stops, without tripping any alarms.
- The soft starters are not compatible with capacitive devices (e.g. power factor correction capacitors) installed between the
soft starter and the compressor motor. Any static or dynamic power factor correction systems installed upline from the main
power circuit breaker must not operate simultaneously with staring of the soft starter.

4.3 Condenser EN
Condensation occurs in finned core coils composed of copper tubes and headers, corrugated aluminium fins, and galvanized
sheet metal shoulders.

ENGLISH
4.4 Evaporator
The evaporator is of the finned core type; water flows in contact with the finned surface at velocities such as to ensure low
pressure drops, while the refrigerant flows through the tubes.
Models TAEevo Tech 015÷351 can be alternatively equipped with a plate evaporator.
In these models the exchanger is protected from the risk of ice formation caused by low evaporation temperatures, with anti-
freeze strategies handled by the electronic controller. The evaporator water outlet temperature is controlled by a probe. If
negative room/water temperatures are required, a mixture of water and glycol must be used.
To drain the circuit refer to “9.4 Draining the process water circuit”.

4.5 Tank
The storage tank is cylindrical.
The tank can be protected against freezing by means of an electric heater managed by the electronic controller. A level sensor
in the tank serves to signal low water level conditions. The standard supply includes anti-condensation cladding, a drain
valve and an air bleed valve. An internal bypass between the water delivery and return connections makes it possible to read
the anti-freeze probe if the unit’s process water inlet and outlet connections are inadvertently closed. In this case the unit
stops due to tripping of the anti-freeze alarm and the shut-off valves must be reopened.
The bypass serves exclusively to allow an anti-freeze alarm to trip (if present) and to allow the pump to run with a reduced
water flow rate without damage. It is advisable to avoid repeated anti-freeze alarm trip cycles in the foregoing conditions.

For models 031÷602 it is possible to fit a semi-transparent container kit,


secured to the rear of the unit. In steady state conditions the water level in
the container must be approximately at the half-way point. In this case
water filling is performed via the container kit.

4.6 Pump
The unit is equipped with centrifugal pumps that can be of two different types, characterised by their ability to provide
different pressure heads depending on requirements (3 and 5 barg pump). The unit can also be supplied without an installed
pump.
In certain models the unit can be equipped with a tandem pump, which is managed by the controller.
The pump seals are in silicon carbide/silicon carbide/EPDM.

ATTENTION

Bleed the circuit by unscrewing the bleed cap on the pump whenever the hydraulic circuit is filled. See 5.4 “Hydraulic
connections”.

NOTE
The pump must never run dry.

4.7 Fans
4.7.1 Axial
The fans are of the axial flow type, comprising a diecast aluminium fan wheel with sickle shaped blades.
The protection rating of the fans is IP54 for all models except TAEevo Tech 015÷020, which are equipped with IP44 fans.
All fans feature insulation class F to ensure they are compatible with outdoor operation in all climates. Fan assembly is
completed by an upper safety grille (supporting the fan).
The axial flow fans feature ON/OFF operation or electronic speed control.

ATTENTION

The speed control is not installed in dual frequency models.

Centrifugal fans are supplied optionally and can be fitted to TAEevo Tech 031÷161 models.
These are double acting fans with the fanwheel coupled directly to the motor shaft and they feature ON/OFF control.
ENGLISH

The fans outlet port is located on the top of the unit.


The centrifugal fans feature ON-OFF control for TAEevo Tech 031-051 and STEP control for TAEevo Tech 081÷161.
4.7.3 High pressure axial flow fans
These fans are supplied optionally and can be installed exclusively on models TAEevo Tech 201÷602. The fans are high
pressure units with an integral bell mouth made of composite material and inverter type electronic speed control.

4.8 Cabinet
The entire plinth, the uprights, and the outer panels are made of galvanized carbon steel sheet and are assembled by means of
screws and/or rivets. All panels undergo phosphor degreasing treatment followed by epoxy polyester power coating.
The frame is designed to allow easy access to all components of the unit.

4.12 Sub-zero ambient temperatures EN


In the presence of sub-zero ambient temperatures (-20) the unit is equipped with a system that assures perfect operation, also
in the presence of harsh temperatures.

ENGLISH
The additional elements fitted are:
• fans electronic speed control
• electrical cabinet heaters.
To prevent ice formation on the tank and on the pump (if present), instead of using glycol the unit can be equipped with the
evaporator freeze protection option. This option involves installing wire resistance type heaters wrapped around the tank and
the pump (if present) and switched on by the microprocessor controller on the basis of an ambient temperature probe signal.
The heaters make it possible to protect the evaporator in the presence of ambient temperatures below 0 °C and greater than or
equal to -10 °C. For ambient temperatures below -10 and above -20 °C, in addition to the anti-freeze heaters the tank and
pumps must be equipped with double insulation (special unit).

5.4 Hydraulic connections


NOTE
All the unit’s hydraulic connections must be made by the customer.

1. Connect the unit to the water pipes observing the water flow direction as shown in the attached dimensional
drawings.
2. Provide two valves (one at the inlet, one at the outlet) to isolate the unit in the case of maintenance work without
having to empty the user water circuit.
3. Fill the tank with water using:

a remote filling system, bleeding the air from the tank manually if necessary by means of the manual bleed
valve.
• if the water circuit is subject to frequent infiltrations of air it is good practice to install an automatic bleed
valve.
4. If the unit is supplied without pump make sure the pump installed by the user has its suction port connected
directly to the tank outlet connection in the event of a closed user circuit.
5. If the unit is supplied without pump make sure the pump installed by the user has its outlet port connected directly
to the unit inlet connection in the event of a user circuit that is open to the atmosphere.

NOTE
The pump must never run dry.

ATTENTION

If the unit is not equipped with the hydraulic unit a pump must be installed for the evaporation water circuit.
For any maintenance requirements it is advisable to install a water drain cock at the lowest point of the circuit.

EN NOTE
Valid exclusively for units equipped with a plate evaporator:
For correct operation install a filter on the water inlet pipeline to the unit. Failure to observe this prescription can result in
ENGLISH

irreparable damage to the evaporator.


In fact, in the presence of a plate evaporator, clogging of even a few plates (or spaces) can result in freezing of the clogged
plate and hence breakage of part of the exchanger even with an apparently regular water flow and correct cooling operation.

Process water inlet Process water outlet

When filling the circuit with liquid check to ensure the absence of air
bubbles and contaminants. If the pump runs noisily or emits anomalous noise
PLUG
it may be necessary to bleed the liquid circuit in order to prime the pump.
The procedure is as follows:
• unscrew the filler/breather plug at the top of the pump
• fill the hydraulic circuit until water starts to overflow from the
filler hole
• refit the plug and tighten it
Repeat the operation if the pump continuous to run noisily, in such a way as
to eliminate any air that had previously remained trapped in the impeller
vanes.

In TAEevo Tech 201÷351 models, special care must be taken if two pumps
are fitted. Proceed to prime the pumps, checking especially the one located at
the greatest height from the ground.

In TAEevo Tech 402÷602 models, fill the system as in single pump models,
taking care to ensure that both pumps are properly primed.

5.5 Expansion vessel EN


In the presence of a closed hydraulic circuit an expansion vessel must be installed.
The expansion vessel must always be installed on the pump suction side.

ENGLISH
To calculate the minimum volume of the expansion vessel use the formula shown below, which is valid if the circuit pressure
is less than or equal to 0.5 bar when the pump is idle and the maximum working pressure of the expansion vessel is greater
than or equal to 4 bar.
The volume of expansion vessel V in litres is provided by the formula:
V = 2 · Vt · (Ptmin - Ptmax)
where:
Vt= Total circuit volume in litres
Ptmin= Specific density at minimum temperature that can be reached by the water throughout a twelve
month period expressed in °C (also during system shutdown)
Ptmax= specific density at minimum temperature that can be reached by the water throughout a twelve
month period expressed in °C (also during system shutdown)

Calculation example:
Vt=200 litres
percent ethylene glycol by volume=30%
tmin=5 °C from table Ptmin=(1.045+1.041)/2 = 1.043
tmax=40 °C from table Ptmax=1.0282
V=2 · 200 · (1.043 - 1.0282)=5.92 litres

5.6 Electrical Connections


The unit’s connection to the power supply must be made in compliance with laws and prescriptions in force in the place of
installation. The voltage, frequency and number of phases must comply with the data on the unit’s nameplate.
The power supply voltage must not be outside the tolerances shown on the electrical schematic, even in terms of transients.
Unless otherwise specified, the frequency tolerance is +/-1% of the nominal value (+/-2% for short periods).
With a three-phase power supply the voltage must be symmetrical (the effective values of phase to phase voltages and
consecutive phase angles must be identical).
In particular, unless otherwise indicated, the maximum permissible phase imbalance is 2%, calculated for each phase
according to the formula:

MaxPhaseVoltageDifferenceFromVavg
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- x 100
Vavg

Vavg= average phase voltage


With a single phase power supply the voltage must be supplied between the phase line and neutral and the neutral conductor
must be connected to earth in the relative step-down substation (TN system in compliance with IEC 364) or must be
connected to earth upline by the electricity company (TT system in compliance with IEC 364).
The line conductor and neutral conductor are not interchangeable and their positions cannot be switched.

ATTENTION

In dual frequency versions the unit is factory supplied by MTA for operation with 400V/3Ph/50Hz.
If the unit is to be fed with a 60Hz supply (dual frequency versions only), the control circuit transformer must be fed with
460V. Make sure you disconnect the electrical power supply before making any changes. For further details refer to the
specific electrical schematic. In addition, you will need to adjust parameter CF63 (see “7.21 Parameters Description-
Settings”).

2. ensure automatic suspension of the power supply in the event of an insulation fault (protection against indirect
ENGLISH

contact in compliance with the prescriptions of IEC 364) by means of a residual current device (the nominal trip
current of which should normally be set to 0.03 A)
3. make sure the level of protection against indirect contact at the source of the power feeding cable is equivalent at
least to IP2X or IPXXB
4. at the start of the power cable install a device that protects it from current surges (short-circuits) (refer to the
indications given in the electrical diagram)
5. use conductors rated to carry the maximum current required at the maximum operating ambient temperature,
according to the chosen installation type (IEC 364-5-523) (see the indications on the electrical diagram)
6. install protection devices that limit the short circuit current to 17 kA peak in correspondence with the rated
breaking capacity if the short-circuit current in the point of installation is greater than an effective value of 10 kA.
Indications on the electrical diagram:
A maximum permissible size of the fuse type gG.
In general, fuses can be replaced by an automatic circuit breaker set in relation to the unit’s maximum current
input (consult the manufacturer if necessary)
B section and type of power cable (if not already supplied):
• installation: insulated conductors, multicore cable in a cable duct, installed overhead, or fixed to a masonry

ENGLISH
STARTING
ATTENTION

Before starting this type of unit, ensure that all personnel involved have read and understood Chapter 2 “Safety”.

ATTENTION

On starting the unit:


1) If the high pressure alarm trips (b1HP/b2HP/b1hP/b2hP) without the compressor having started, stop the unit
immediately by setting it to off on the controller.
Now check the refrigerant circuit high pressure value.
2) If the Phase Monitor alarm ALc1 trips check the correct phase sequence upline from the unit. The ALc1 alarm may be
generated by tripping of the protections upline from the phase monitor.

1. Check that the unit shut-off valves are open.


2. Check that the tank has been completely filled with water and that the air has been bled out correctly.
3. Check that the ambient temperature is within the range indicated on the unit’s data plate.
4. Use the pressure gauge on the rear panel of the unit to check that the pressure is approximately 0.5 bar (only for
closed hydraulic circuits).
5.Check that the main switch is in the OFF position (“O”).
6.Check that the unit power supply voltage is correct.
7.Power the unit by means of the line protection device.
8.Close the unit’s main switch by setting it to the ON position (“I”).
9.Check that water is flowing through the evaporator.

10. To start the unit perform the following procedure (For more information consult Chapter 7 “Electronic
controller”)

From unit OFF (stand-by) press and release button to switch the unit on or off in chiller mode. With the unit
on LED is lit.
11. On three-phase power supply models make sure the compressor operates correctly (no anomalous noise and no
overheating) and check that the fans and the pump (if present) rotate in the correct direction.
If necessary, invert two phase wires of the power supply line.
12. Check that the pressure difference between the pressure gauge reading with the pump running and the reading
with the pump idle is higher than the available pressure head with the maximum pump flow rate. If the difference
is lower this means that the water flow rate is higher than the maximum permissible value. To avoid damaging the
pump increase the pressure drop in the hydraulic circuit, for example by partially closing a shut-off cock on the
pump outlet.
13. Models with high pressure centrifugal/axial flow fans:
Check that the outlet of the fans is correctly directed and that the pressure drops of the air ducting system are
approximately equal to the available pressure value. If the pressure drops are:
- higher, this means that there is a reduction in the flow rate of cooling air with consequent impairment of the
unit’s performance and possible tripping of the thermal cutouts even at relatively low ambient temperatures;
- lower, this means that the air flow rate may be too high creating a situation of potential risk for the fan motor in
the case of a centrifugal fan.

OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
27 Chapter 6 - Starting

EN 14. If at the time of first startup the ambient temperature is high and the water temperature in the hydraulic circuit is
significantly higher than the operating value (e.g. 25-30 °C) this means that the chiller is starting in overloaded
conditions resulting in possible tripping of the protections. To reduce the overload you can progressively close
ENGLISH

(without closing it completely!) a valve at the chiller outlet to reduce the flow rate of water passing through it. As
the water temperature in the hydraulic circuit approaches the working value, the valve can be re-opened.
15. The unit is now ready to start operating.
If the thermal load is lower than that produced by the unit, the water temperature decreases until it reaches the
setpoint value set following the instructions. Electronic controller
Once the SETPOINT value has been reached the controller monitoring the water inlet temperature will stop the
compressor. In these conditions the water pump runs constantly.

7.13 Unit adjustment and control


7.13.1 Compressors control
The electronic controller manages compressor start and stops, observing the minimum run times.
The following section describes the two methods of control and rotation.
7.13.2 Choice of compressors control type
The controller features the facility to choose between two temperature control types:
• Proportional
• Neutral Zone (factory setting)
7.13.3 Proportional control
For chillers, proportional control uses the setpoint temperature value as a reference and a deviation value called the
differential. When the measured temperature increases the system progressively starts the compressors. When the
temperature falls below the differential the compressors are progressively stopped.

In chiller mode, if the reference temperature is > Setpoint+Differential, the unit’s compressors are started in sequence in
accordance with the starting time lag outside the neutral zone.
In contrast, if the reference temperature is < Setpoint, the unit’s compressors are stopped in sequence in accordance with the
stopping time lag outside the neutral zone.
Moreover, to guarantee arrival at the temperature setpoint and rotation of the compressors, if the reference temperature is
within the neutral zone, the unit’s compressors are started in sequence, respecting the starting time lag in neutral zone. Still
within the neutral zone, after a programmable time interval the controller stops one compressor and, observing the
programmed rotation, starts another. Actions in the neutral zone are performed only if at least one of the unit’s compressors
is already running.

7 . 1 3 . 6 C o mp re s s o r s r o t a t i o n
For correct operation in the compressors time the electronic controller manages rotation of compressor starts with different
logic, selectable by means of a parameter.
The possible choices are:
• Fixed sequence: the first compressor to start is always the last one to stop.
• Rotation by hours: the compressor that will be started is the one with the lowest number of running hours,
while the first to be stopped will be the one, among the running compressors, with the highest number of
running hours.
• Rotation by starts (factory setting): the compressor that will be started is the one, among those available,
with the lowest number of starts, while the first to be stopped will be the one, among the running compressors,
with the highest number of starts.
In two-circuit units it is also possible to choose whether to favour saturation or balancing of the compressors in each circuit.
7.13.7 Forced compressors rotation
For units that frequently operate at partial loads, the controller provides the facility to perform forced compressor rotations.
For circuits with more than one compressor although only one of which running, after programmable time the compressor is
stopped and starting of the available compressor is forced.
7 . 1 3 . 8 C o mp re s s o r s s t a r t i n g t i m e l i m i t a t i o n
If there are several compressors in a circuit but only one is running, after programmable running time the compressor is
stopped and another compressor is started (the first free compressor in accordance with the running hours or number of
starts).

7.14 Unloading function


This function makes it possible to reduce cooling capacity of the unit when required; it may affect the entire unit or a single
circuit and it is achieved by stopping one or more compressors. The unloading types are as follows:
• Unloading due to high temperature: having defined an unloading set and differential, if the temperature
measured by the probe remains above the set for an activation time, in each circuit one compressor is stopped.
If the temperature of the probe becomes lower than or equal to an unloading set less the differential, or if the
associated maximum duration has elapsed, the unloading function is deactivated and the compressors are
restarted.
• Unloading due to high pressure (if high pressure transducer is present): having defined a set, a differential
and an unloading time, if the condensing pressure measured in a circuit is greater than or equal to the set the
unloading function is activated in the circuit and then a compressor is stopped in only the circuit involved.
The unloading function is deactivated only if the condensing pressure decreases and remains below the
unloading set for a preset time or if it falls below set - diff.
7.15 Anti-freeze heaters
The anti-freeze heater is optional and can be installed on each unit only on request.
The heater ensures protection of the evaporator and the pump (if installed) against the risks of freezing when ambient
temperature falls.
The heater is of the wire resistance type and it is wrapped around the tank and pump (if installed).
This protection is not available for the “NO FERROUS + plate evaporator” configuration (in this case the use of anti-freeze
additives is recommended).
Activation of the heaters is managed via the electronic controller.
The wire heaters are switched on according to the ambient temperature detected by the probe located in the fans compartment
behind the electrical panel.
Activation of the heaters is performed by way of an ambient temperature probe.

NOTE
The anti-freeze heater option protects components of the hydraulic circuit for ambient temperatures down to -10 °C.
For lower ambient temperatures the circuit must be filled with a glycol anti-freeze product.

7.16 Fans control


On TAEevo Tech units the fans can be controlled in the following ways:
• ON/OFF
• by steps
• with speed control.
The selection is made on the basis of the unit configuration.

ATTENTION

The speed control is not installed in dual frequency models.

7.16.1 Units configured with “STEP” fans (only models 402÷602)


These units are equipped with a pressure transducer located on the refrigerant compressor discharge pipeline.
On the basis of the pressure read by the transducer, the electronic controller manages operation of the fans according to
ON-OFF logic, i.e. supplying or disconnecting power to the fans.
7.16.2 Units configured with fan speed control
The unit is equipped with a speed controls that serve to maintain condensing pressure around a preset value.
These units are equipped with a pressure transducer located on the refrigerant compressor discharge pipeline.
For example, if the temperature of the air conveyed to the condenser decreases, the pressure transducer detects a drop in
condensing pressure, which on sending the signal to the speed controller causes a reduction in the fans rpm thus decreasing
the air flow through the condenser.
In the same way, in the case of an increase of the temperature of the air conveyed to the condenser, with a consequent
increase in condensing pressure, the speed controller increases fan rotation speed to increase the air flow through the
condenser.

NOTE
For high pressure axial fans the speed controller is integrated on the fan motor.

7.17 Hydraulic unit


The circulator pump is only installed on request; in general terms the following configurations are possible:
• Without pump
• Single pump
• Double pump (one in stand-by)
When the unit is powered on the pump (if installed) starts and continues to run until the unit is set to OFF.

NOTE
With configuration “without pump” there is a provision for an external pump.

In configurations with the double pump when the unit is started for the first time pump 1 is always started. On subsequent
starts the water pump having the smaller number of running hours will be started.
In the case of an alarm that blocks the currently running pump, the inactive pump will be started.
In addition, to maintain a balance between the running hours of the two pumps the controller automatically switches over the
two devices when a programmable threshold is reached (CO19).

7.18 Anti-freeze pump management (if ambient probe is


installed)
The pumps installed in the unit can be started in anti-freeze mode to prevent the formation of ice in the unit’s hydraulic
circuit. If the unit is powered off and the selected reference temperature is below the programmed setpoint, one of the pumps
is started. The pump is stopped if the temperature increases above the setpoint + differential, in accordance with the
following diagram:

7.19 ModBus
The supervision system provides the facility to monitor and act on certain of the unit’s parameters by means of a remote
device using the RS485 port. The MODBUS communication mode for the controller features the following characteristics:
Baud Rate = 9600 bps
Data Bit = 8 bit
Parity = None
Stop Bit = 1
Start/stop= 4milliseconds of silence (approximately 3 characters)
Minimum time-out = 500 ms

ENGLISH

O TH ER C O M P O N E N T S
8.1 Compressor motor protection
The unit is equipped with an internal motor protection system by means of a power circuit breaker.

8.2 Refrigerant high and low pressure switches


The units are equipped with the following pressure switches:
1. low pressure switch (LP)
This monitors refrigerant compressor suction pressure and will trip to protect the compressor if the pressure falls
to potentially hazardous values that could harm the compressor. The pressure switch is of the “automatic reset”
type. Alarm b1LP or b2LP (see chapter “7.10.8 Low pressure switch alarm”), generated by tripping of this
pressure switch, can be delayed with respect to start-up of the compressor, to prevent temporary fluctuations in
suction pressure or false alarms from interfering with correct operation of the unit. Once the preset time interval
has elapsed tripping of this pressure switch will be detected by the electronic control unit, which will display
alarm signal b1LP or b2LP (see chapter “7.10.8 Low pressure switch alarm”) and shut down the compressor(s),
while the pump (if installed) will continue to run. After the alarm has tripped if the compressor suction pressure
increases and exceeds the reset value the pressure switch will reset. The unit can be restarted by following the
alarms reset procedure described in Chapter 7 “Electronic controller”. If the cause of the pressure switch trip has
not been remedied this cycle will be repeated continuously.
2. high pressure switch (HP)
This monitors the refrigerant compressor discharge pressure and prevents it increasing to potentially hazardous
values that could harm the compressor and people within the vicinity. The pressure switch is of the “automatic
reset” type. Tripping of this pressure switch is read by the electronic controller, which opens the compressor
power feeding circuit and displays alarm signal b1HP or b2HP (see section “7.10.8 Low pressure switch alarm”).
When the compressor discharge pressure decreases and falls below the reset point, the pressure switch resets
automatically.
The unit can then be restarted according to the alarm reset procedure described in Chapter 7 “Electronic
controller”.
If the cause of pressure switch activation is not eliminated, this cycle may be repeated continuously.
The LP and HP pressure switches are connected to the refrigerant circuit pipes by means of SCHRAEDER valves (with
needle) that prevent the refrigerant from escaping if the pressure switches are to be replaced.
The TRIP and RESET values of the pressure switches depend on the type of refrigerant and are shown in the following table:

Refrigerant TRIP RESET


Pressure switch
gases bar °C bar °C
HP 41 64.7 33 55.0
R410A
LP 2.5 -23.8 4 -14

8.3 Fan pressure switches (Models TAEevo Tech 015÷351)


With fan speed control in ON/OFF mode these units are equipped with a Pressure switch (FP) that monitors the refrigerant
compressor discharge pressure and is responsible for controlling operation of the fans in ON-OFF mode, i.e. connecting or
disconnecting the fans electrical power supply.
The FP pressure switch is connected to the refrigerant circuit pipes by means of SCHRAEDER valves (with needle) that
prevent refrigerant from escaping if the pressure switch is to be replaced.
The TRIP and RESET values of the pressure switch depend on the type of refrigerant and are shown in the following table:

8.4 Pressure transducers EN


Certain models are equipped with a high pressure transducer on the refrigerant circuit.
Pressure transducers read the compressors discharge pressure values and control operation of the unit on the basis of the

ENGLISH
pressure setpoint values set on the electronic controller.
By means of the values read by these transducers the following functions of each circuit can be provided separately:
• high pressure alarm;
• unloading for high pressure;
• measurement of high pressure values.
Therefore, if pressure in one circuit increases with respect to the preset limit value, an alarm signal can be tripped to stop the
unit or stop one or more compressors after a programmable time interval.

8.5 Level sensor


All units are equipped with a level sensor. The level sensor is mounted in the tank where it is responsible for signalling low
water level conditions. If this problem is detected the sensor sends an alarm signal to the control unit resulting in an
immediate shutdown of the chiller.

ATTENTION

Adopt all the possible precautions in order to prevent accidental contact with electrically live parts.
The voltage present in the electrical cabinet can reach values that are potentially fatal for humans.
