Another criterion for the external water circuit is the water quality. Please check chapter "5.2
Chilled water quality" at page 36 for detailed information about water quality requirements.
The most sensible component in respect of pollution and corrosion is the evaporator, whose
heat transmission features deteriorate in this case. The water should be free from solid particles.
For this purpose we recommend the installation of a fine mesh strainer upstream the evaporator.
Furthermore, the installation of pipe compensators in the chilled water inlet and outlet are
recommended.

If you connect two or more chillers in parallel, we recommend installing regulating valves to keep
the pressure drop of each unit equally high.
For connecting the units to the external system remove the protective hoods from the water
pipes.
6.5 Outside temperature sensor
The outside air temperature sensor is located in the high section of the chiller, before the con-
densers coils/free cooling exchanger.
The location of the sensor must be checked plant-specifically and if necessary be transferred
out of the chiller unit. In this case the sensor cable must be correspondingly extended (max. 30
m).
