b.

 

The temperature controller parameters must 

be setup for the lower leaving temperatures 

that the system will generate. 

c.

 

Also, some temperature thermostats may 

need to be adjusted. 

17.  

 

PUMP (DEPENDING ON DESIGN) 

a.

 

Systems with integral pump are typically 

setup to provide recirculating fluid for the 

chiller and some flow is routed for the process 

system.  Refer to the unit’s actual design for 

details. 

b.

 

A secondary pump may be used for process 

specific applications, referred to as Process 

Pump. 

18.  

 

TANK (DEPENDING ON DESIGN) 

a.

 

Systems with integral tank will typically be 

304 Stainless Steel with Open Top with 

Shoebox Type Lid, Fluid Level Sight glass, Fill 

Port, & Drain Plug. 

19.  

 

HEAT EXCHANGER (DEPENDING ON DESIGN) 

a.

 

A heat exchanger is used to transfer heat 

typically from the chiller fluid circuit to a 

separate process fluid circuit. 

20.  

 

REMOTE OPERATION/STATUS PANEL (OPTION) 

a.

 

Basic On/Off control switch with Cooling 

Mode status and Fault indicator light. 

21.  

 

REMOTE OPERATION CONTROLS (OPTION) 

a.

 

Various designs (contact Cold Shot Chillers for 

options) 

22.  

 

SWITCHOVER SYSTEM (CHILLER BYPASS) 

(

OPTIONS

a.

 

Manual City Switchover (MCSO) (Option) 

a)

 

System valves which can be aligned to a 

backup water supply system such as the 

city water supply.  Outlet fluid flow is 

normally routed to the building’s drain 

system.  Valves are connected and must 

be actuated simultaneously or in the 

proper series to operate properly. 

 

Converting back is normally performed in 

the reverse order. 

b.

 

Automatic City Switchover (See ACSO 

literature) 

a)

 

System has electrically operated valves 

similar to MCSO, however it can be setup 

to change automatically based on a 

system safety situation. 

23.  

 

TANK LEVEL 

(OPTIONS)

 

a.

 

Float Valve 

a)

 

Located inside the tank, the float valve is 

a mechanically float-actuated valve 

supplied with a makeup water source of 

fluid for the tank. 

b)

 

The makeup water (such as city water 

supply) is connected to the pipe 

connection on the outside of the tank. 

c)

 

Water pressure, typically, must be less 

than 30psi. 

d)

 

When the level falls below a certain level, 

the valve will open and fill the tank.  

When it reaches the top setting 

adjustment, the valve closes. 

e)

 

If the valve does not maintain level: 

f)

 

Verify water pressure supply. 

g)

 

Verify the float adjustment. 

h)

 

Verify the mechanical linkages are free to 

move. 

i)

 

Verify there is no dirt or debris on the 

valve seat. 

b.

 

Tank Level Float Switch Solenoid Valve 

a)

 

Tank Level Switches 

b)

 

Float actuated switch(s)  mounted in the 

tank to monitor when tank is at different 

levels depending on design such as: 

a)

 

Safety  –  to stop the operation of 

something such as the chiller or 

pump. 

b)

 

Notification – to provide a signal for 

notification for manual refill or that 

another action must be performed. 

c)

 

Action  –  to provide signal for use 

with other system uses such as 

automatic fill systems. 

c)

 

Low Tank Level-  tank is at the low level 

point that will/should  begin filling the 

tank.  Above pump suction. 

d)

 

High Tank Level- level in tank is at or near 

top of tank  and tank filling will/should 

stop.  Tank may overflow. 

c.

 

Tank Level Float Controlled Solenoid Valve 

a)

 

A solenoid  valve  is  an electrically 

operated valve to start and stop fluid flow 

from an outside source of fluid such as 

city water to refill tank, typically.
