Circulation of aggressive liquids such as acid and salt water. Warning! Johnson Controls Denmark is not liable for injuries to personnel or damage to equipment, re- sulting from using the equipment for other purposes than the ones stated above. Warning! The circulation system must be filled with water and air purged before power is turned on.

Design and function 3. Design and function The Sabroe WHC circulation system is designed to maintain optimum cooling water tempera- ture on heat pumps and refrigeration compressors with water-cooled top and side covers. The system ensures a constant cooling water temperature thus giving the compressor optimum op- erating conditions.
Page 7
Design and function • The WHC controller receives a start signal from the compressor. The start signal changes the set point for the water temperature, so it is possible to have a higher water temperature at standstill (heating) and a lower temperature in operation (cooling). •...

Mounting and connections 4. Mounting and connections If the circulation system is sold with a heat pump or a chiller, the system will already be mounted and connected on delivery. If the system is sold with a compressor unit, it will not be fastened as the system should not be mounted directly on the compressor or the compressor base frame because of vibrations.
Page 10
Mounting and connections Supplementary pump Fig. 4 On the circulation side, the system must be connected to the compressor cooling hoses by the two provided cooling hoses. The two provided hoses are of a length allowing them to be cut to the length required.
Page 11
Mounting and connections During pressure testing, the regulating valve (Fig. 2, pos. 18) and the solenoid valve (Fig. 2, pos. 16) must be open. Draining The system must be turned off before draining as the heating element and pump may be dam- aged if there is air in the system.
Page 12
Start-up and commissioning 5. Start-up and commissioning The circulation system must be charged with water and air purged before voltage is applied to the system. Warning! Scalding risk. The water in the system is hot both during operation and standstill. Setting the water temperature Standstill (heating mode) While the compressor is stopped, the WHC system is in heating mode, which means that the...
Page 13
Start-up and commissioning Maximum and minimum media temperature The controller is set up to stop the compressor if the cooling media is either too cold or too warm. • Minimum (alarm) temperature: 35°C. • Maximum (alarm) temperature: 85°C. For further description of the controller, see Appendices A & B. Flow setting of regulating valve The setting of the regulating valve (Fig.
Page 14
Alarms 6. Alarms Low flow • The electric plug LED at the flow switch (Fig. 2 , pos. 4) will be on. • The heating element will be disconnected. • The compressor will stop (if the WHC control box is connected to the compressor controller).
Page 15
Service and maintenance 7. Service and maintenance It is recommended to check the cooling water temperature regularly and ensure that the sys- tem is working optimally. See the subsection "Setting of water temperature" in section 5. The strainer (Fig. 2, pos. 20) should be checked and cleaned of dirt on a regular basis. If addi- tional space is needed during service of the compressor unit, the circulation system can be detached.
