Application
Mono Compressor
Dual Compressor
Conditioning
3.3 lt/kW
2.5 lt/kW
Process
6.6 lt/kW
5.0 lt/kW
Variable capacity
6.6 lt/kW
5.0 lt/kW
Calculation example for EWWD(H)950DZXE units
Cooling capacity at 100% = 946 kW
Minimum system volume for conditioning: 946 x 3.3= 3122 lt
Minimum system volume for processing: 946 x 6.6= 6243 lt
Minimum system volume at variable capacity: 946 x 6.6= 6243 lt
Note: The calculation formula described above, takes into account several factors such as the compressor stop time and
the admissible temperature difference between the last compressor stop and start. In this regard, the minimum water
content calculated refers to the machine operations in a normal climate control system. If the machine is used for process
activities or if higher operating stability is required, we recommend doubling the calculated water content. In very simple
systems, an inertial accumulation tanks may be necessary on the hydraulic circuit to reach the required minimum water
volume. Adding this component must guarantee correct water mixing and, therefore, we recommend you select a tank that
includes an internal diaphragm for this purpose.
Note: If the evaporator water circuit operates in a variable flow system, the minimum water flow rate must not be less than
50% of the water flow at nominal conditions, and the variation should not be greater than 10% of the nominal flow per
minute.
2.11 Evaporator frost protection
1. If the machine is idle during the winter, drain and rinse the evaporator and chilled water pipes with glycol. Drain and
air vent connections are included on the evaporator for this purpose.
2. We recommend adding glycol in proper proportion to the condenser cooling system. The freezing temperature, of
the water-glycol solution, must be at least 6° C lower than the expected minimum ambient temperature.
3. Insulate pipes especially chilled water ones to avoid condensation.
Damage caused by freezing is not covered by warranty, therefore, Daikin Applied Europe SpA cannot
be held liable.
2.12 Condenser protection and design considerations
If lake, river or ground water is used as the cooling fluid and the water valves have a leak, the condenser and liquid
refrigerant line temperatures could drop under room temperature when the machine is off. This problem occurs when cold
water circulates through the condenser and the unit remains off waiting load. If this happens:
1. Turn off the condenser water pump when the compressor is off.
2. Check that the liquid line expansion valve is working properly.
2.12.1 Condensation control with evaporative cooling tower
The minimum condenser inlet water temperature should not be less than 20° C at full water tower flow rate.
If the water temperature must be lower, even the water flow must be reduced proportionately.
To modulate the water flow to the condenser, install a three-way by-pass valve. The figure shows how the three-way valve
is applied to cool the condenser. The three-way valve can be activated by a pressure actuator which guarantees proper
condensing pressure in the case where the water temperature entering the condenser is less than 20° C. A three-way
servo-controlled valve or inverter driven circulation pump could be used instead of a valve with pressure actuator. Both of
these devices could be controlled by a 0-10 Vdc analogue signal emitted by the machine electronic controller according to
the condenser inlet water temperature.
