operate this unit.
Only qualified personnel should move, install or service this equipment.
Adhere to all warnings, cautions and installation, operating and safety instructions on the unit and in
this manual. Follow all operating and user instructions.

! WARNING
Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death.
Disconnect local and remote power supplies before working within.
Customer must provide earth ground to unit, per NEC, CEC and local codes, as applicable.
Before proceeding with installation, read all instructions, verify that all the parts are included
and check the nameplate to be sure the voltage matches available utility power.
The Liebert iCOM microprocessor does not isolate power from the unit, even in the “unit off”
mode. Some internal components require and receive power even during the “unit off” mode of
Liebert iCOM control.
The factory-supplied optional disconnect switch is inside the unit. The line side of this switch
contains live high-voltage.
The only way to ensure that there is NO voltage inside the unit is to install and open a remote
disconnect switch. Refer to unit electrical schematic.
Follow all local codes.

! WARNING
Risk of explosive discharge from high-pressure refrigerant. Can cause injury or death.
This unit contains fluids and gases under high pressure. Relieve pressure before working with
piping.

! WARNING
Risk of refrigerant system rupture or explosion from overpressurization. Can cause
equipment damage, injury or death.
For systems requiring EU CE compliance (50Hz), the system installer must provide and
install a discharge pressure relief valve rated for a maximum of 480 psig (34bar) in the high
side refrigerant circuit. Do not install a shutoff valve between the compressor and the field
installed relief valve. The pressure relief valve must be CE-certified to the EU Pressure
Equipment Directive by an EU “Notified Body.”

! WARNING
Risk of contact with high-speed moving parts. Can cause injury or death.
Disconnect all local and remote electric power supplies before working in the unit.
Do not operate unit with any or all cabinet panels removed. Do not operate upflow units
without installing a plenum, ductwork or guard over the blower opening(s) on the top surface
of the unit cabinet.
Ductwork must be connected to the blower(s), or a plenum must be installed on the blower
deck for protection from rotating blower wheel(s) on upflow units.

 Important Safety Instructions

! CAUTION
Risk of contact with hot surfaces. Can cause injury.
The compressors, refrigerant discharge lines, humidifiers and reheats are extremely hot
during unit operation. Allow sufficient time for them to cool before working within the unit
cabinet. Use extreme caution and wear protective gloves and arm protection when working on
or near hot compressors, discharge lines, humidifiers and reheats.

! CAUTION
Risk of handling heavy and lengthy parts. Can cause personal injury and equipment damage.
Cabinet panels can exceed 5ft. (1.5m) in length and weigh more than 35lb. (15.9kg). Follow
relevant OSHA lifting recommendations and consider using a two-person lift for safe and
comfortable removal and installation of cabinet panels. Only properly trained and qualified
personnel wearing appropriate safety headgear, gloves and shoes should attempt to remove or
install cabinet panels.

NOTE
The Liebert indoor cooling unit has a factory-installed high-pressure safety switch in the high
side refrigerant circuit. A pressure relief valve is provided with Liebert Lee-Temp™ condensers.
Consult local building codes to determine whether the Liebert Fan Speed Control and VFD
condensers will require field provided pressure relief devices.

NOTICE
Risk of clogged or leaking drain lines. Can cause equipment and building damage.
This unit requires a water drain connection. Drain lines must be inspected regularly and
maintenance must be performed to ensure that drain water runs freely through the drain
system and that lines are clear and free of obstructions and in good condition with no visible
sign of damage or leaks. This unit may also require an external water supply to operate.
Improper installation, application and service practices can result in water leakage from the
unit. Water leakage can result in severe property damage and loss of critical data center
equipment.
Do not locate unit directly above any equipment that could sustain water damage.
Emerson recommends installing leak detection equipment for unit and supply lines.

NOTICE
Risk of a leaking coil due to freezing and/or corrosion. Can cause equipment and serious
building damage.
Cooling and heat rejection coils, heat exchangers and piping systems that are connected to
open cooling towers or other open water/glycol systems are at high risk for freezing and
premature corrosion. Fluids in these systems must contain the proper antifreeze and
inhibitors to prevent freezing and premature coil corrosion. The water or water/glycol solution
must be analyzed by a competent water treatment specialist before startup to establish the
inhibitor requirement. The water or water/glycol solution must be analyzed every six months
to determine the pattern of inhibitor depletion. The complexity of water-caused problems and
their correction makes it important to obtain the advice of a water treatment specialist and
follow a regularly scheduled maintenance program.

• Water/glycol and GLYCOOL units utilizing a drycooler may require an optional aquastat setting.
See Tables 64 through 67 for aquastat setting guidelines. Applications with the optional stat
setting require field piping to be insulated to prevent condensation.
• The unit requires a drain, which must comply with all applicable codes. This drain line may
contain boiling water. See 9.1.1 - Condensate Piping—Field-Installed for details.
• Three-phase electrical service is required for all models. Electrical service must conform to
national and local electrical codes. See equipment nameplate for details.
• If seismic requirements apply, consult your local Emerson representative for information about a
seismic-rated floor stand.

NOTE
Seal openings around piping and electrical connection to prevent air leakage. Failure to do so
could reduce the unit’s cooling performance.

3.5 Operating Conditions

3.5.1 Cooling, Humidification and Dehumidification
The Liebert DS must be operated in a conditioned space within the operating envelope ASHRAE
recommends for data centers: Maximum dew point of 59°F (15°C).
Operating outside this envelope can decrease equipment reliability.
Return air to the Liebert DS must be no cooler than the ASHRAE recommendation of 68°F (20°C) DB
and 40% RH or minimum WB of 54°F (12.2°C) for proper unit operation.
Operating below this can decrease equipment reliability.
Refer to ASHRAE’s publication, “Thermal Guidelines for Data Processing Environments.”

3.5.2 Heating
The Liebert DS is qualified for heating-only operation at temperatures not exceeding 80°F (27°C).

7.5 Disassembly—Upflow Units

For detailed views of upflow units, see Figures 52 through 60.
1. Remove the unit from its skid.
2. Remove all panels except top front accent.
3. Remove all filters on front return units. This allows easier access to items located in the filter and
coil assembly.
4. All wires are hot stamped and all circuit board connectors are lettered for easy replacement.
Cable ties will need to be cut and replaced as necessary. Reference unit wiring schematic on
deadfront panel for details.
5. Label the (3) quick connect plugs from the compressor compartment, and disconnect them.
6. Disconnect compressor wire harness, including crankcase heater wires, if applicable, from
contactor in electric box. Pull conduit and wires into compressor compartment.
7. Reheat (optional component): Disconnect reheat wire harness from bottom of contactor in
electric box. Unplug low-voltage quick connect for reheat safety wires. Pull conduit and wires into
filter and coil assembly section of unit.
8. Humidifier (optional component):
a. Disconnect the humidifier wire harness from the bottom of the contactor in the electric box.
For infrared humidifiers: Remove the quick-connect plugs from these low-voltage connec-
tions: 35-5 and 35-6 (safety under pan), 35-3 and 35-4 (humidifier make-up valve) and 8-5 and
8-7 (high water alarm).
For steam generating humidifiers: Remove the quick-connect plugs from the following
low-voltage connections: 35-1, H-24H and H-24G, and 35-7 and HAR-24H.
b. Disconnect 35-3 and 35-4 from the control board.
c. Pull the conduit and wires into the unit’s filter and coil assembly section.
9. Condensate pump (optional component): Disconnect condensate pump high-voltage wire
harness. Remove low volt wires from terminal strip #24 and #55. Pull conduit and wires into filter
and coil assembly section of unit.
10. Glycool/Dual-Cool (optional component): On units with actuator, unplug valve actuator
harness at actuator and pull wire harness into electric box. Disconnect glycol sensor from control
board and pull into filter and coil assembly section of unit.
11. Smoke detector (optional component): For units with smoke detector, remove cover on smoke
detector. Remove plug connector from smoke detector and pull into electric box. Remove wires
from terminal strip #91, 92, 93 and route the wires to the smoke detector box. Remove the sensing
tube from the bottom of the plastic elbow.
12. Filter Clog Switch: Disconnect both tubes from the filter clog switch. Pull both of the tubes into
the electric box.
13. Close the electric box cover and the accent panel.
14. Remove the pull bar that supports the accent panel from left end of unit, otherwise it will fall out
when the compressor section is removed.
15. Evacuate and recover all refrigerant from the unit.
Air-cooled units contain a nitrogen holding charge. Water, glycol and GLYCOOL units are factory
charged with refrigerant. Refer to 9.0 - Piping for piping guidelines and to the ASHRAE
Refrigeration Handbook for general, good-practice refrigeration piping.

NOTICE
Risk of compressor oil contamination with moisture. Can cause equipment damage.
Emerson recommends front-seating the compressor service valves. Front-seating the valves
keeps the nitrogen or refrigerant charge in the compressor and prevents moisture from
contaminating the compressor oil. This is particularly important with units using R-407C
refrigerant.
16. Cut and pull back insulation from piping.

Liebert® DS™ 64
 Disassembling the Liebert DS for Transport

17. Cut the refrigerant piping with a tubing cutter; if there is no Schrader fitting, let the nitrogen
bleed out before cutting all the way through the pipe.
NOTE
Emerson does not recommend unsweating refrigerant connections.
18. Unsweat or cut all copper water pipes that interconnect unit sections.
19. Immediately cap off and seal all piping that has been cut, including the suction and liquid lines,
the humidifier supply line and the condensate discharge line (if applicable), as well as fluid piping
on GLYCOOL and dual-cool units.

7.5.1 Remove Compressor Assembly

1. Secure the compressor wire harness to the compressor assembly.
2. Remove the 10 thread-cutting bolts holding compressor section together.
a. Begin removing bolts at the bottom of the Liebert DS and progress toward the top. Use this
method for the front and back bolts.
b. Stabilize the compressor section before removing the top, middle bolt.

NOTICE
The compressor section is top-heavy and has a small base. It must remain upright. Do not lay
the compressor section on its side during or after removing it from the Liebert DS. Do not
remove the shipping blocks from the semi-hermetic compressors until the Liebert DS is fully
reassembled and ready for installation.

NOTE
Emerson recommends using piano jacks when moving this section.

7.5.2 Remove Blower and Electric Box Assembly

1. Remove the motor access plate from right end of unit.
This will provide a place to grasp the blower and electric box assembly and move it.
Remove the coil access plates on the left side of the unit for clearance when brazing the suction
and discharge lines.
2. Remove the thread-cutting bolts holding the unit sections together; there are four on the left and
four on the right.
3. Separate the unit sections with caution.

NOTICE
Risk of improper handling. May cause damage to the Liebert DS.
• The blower and electric box assembly should be moved forward and set on the floor.
• Emerson recommends using four people to remove this section.
• The motor end will be significantly heavier than the other end.
• The filter and coil assembly must remain upright. The coil is not secured to the filter and
coil assembly.
• Secure the coil to the bottom section with straps or a similar means before moving the
section.
4. Move each section of the Liebert DS to the installation location.

65 Liebert® DS™
 Disassembling the Liebert DS for Transport

7.6 Reassembly—Upflow Unit

1. Reattach the top section using thread-cutting bolts; there are four on each side.
Torque the bolts to 225 in-lb (25Nm).

! WARNING
Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death.
Disconnect local and remote power supplies before working within.
Use voltmeter to make sure power is turned off before making any electrical connections.
Before proceeding with installation, read all instructions, verify that all the parts are included
and check the nameplate to be sure the voltage matches available utility power.
50Hz Models Only: Re-install all terminal covers before connecting power to the unit.
Failure to install these covers exposes high-voltage terminals.
Follow all local codes.

! WARNING
Risk of improper wiring, piping, moving, lifting and handling. Can cause equipment damage,
injury or death.
Installation and service of this equipment should be done only by qualified personnel who
have been specially trained in the installation of air conditioning equipment.

NOTE
Seal openings around piping and electrical connection to prevent air leakage. Failure to do so
could reduce the unit’s cooling performance.

NOTICE
Risk of improper electrical connection of three-phase input power. Can cause unit damage.
Service technicians should use a gauge set on the Liebert DS system during the initial startup
to verify that the three-phase power is connected properly. The EC fans are not a reliable
indicator of proper connection. The blowers will rotate the same direction, regardless of the
three-phase power input.

NOTICE
Risk of backward compressor rotation. Can cause equipment damage.
Three-phase power must be connected to the unit line voltage terminals in the proper
sequence so that scroll compressors rotate in the proper direction.

NOTICE
Risk of improper electrical supply connection. Can cause equipment damage.
See transformer label for primary tap connections. Installer will need to change transformer
primary taps if applied unit voltage is other than pre-wired tap voltage.

NOTICE
Risk of overheated terminals. Can cause wiring and component damage.
Use copper wiring only. Make sure that all connections are tight.

 Piping

9.0 PIPING
All fluid and refrigeration connections to the unit, with the exception of the condensate drain, are
sweat copper. Factory-installed piping brackets must not be removed. Field-installed piping must be
installed in accordance with local codes and must be properly assembled, supported, isolated and
insulated. Avoid piping runs through noise-sensitive areas, such as office walls and conference rooms.
Refer to specific text and detailed diagrams in this manual for other unit-specific piping
requirements.
All piping below the elevated floor must be located so that it offers the least resistance to air flow.
Careful planning of the piping layout under the raised floor is required to prevent the air flow from
being blocked. When installing piping on the subfloor, it is recommended that the pipes be mounted in
a horizontal plane rather than stacked one above the other. Whenever possible, the pipes should be
run parallel to the air flow.

9.1 Fluid Connections

NOTICE
Risk of clogged or leaking drain lines. Can cause equipment and building damage.
This unit requires a water drain connection. Drain lines must be inspected regularly and
maintenance must be performed to ensure that drain water runs freely through the drain
system and that lines are clear and free of obstructions and in good condition with no visible
sign of damage or leaks. This unit may also require an external water supply to operate.
Improper installation, application and service practices can result in water leakage from the
unit. Water leakage can result in severe property damage and loss of critical data center
equipment.
Do not locate unit directly above any equipment that could sustain water damage.
Emerson recommends installing leak detection equipment for unit and supply lines.

NOTE
Seal openings around piping and electrical connection to prevent air leakage. Failure to do so
could reduce the unit’s cooling performance.

9.1.1 Condensate Piping—Field-Installed

• 1/4" supply line; maximum water pressure is 145psi (1000kPa)
• Fill valve is sized for pressure range of 30 to 120psi (207-827kPa)
• Do not supply steam generating humidifier with softened water
• Do not use hot water source
• Water conductivity must be in the range of 330-750 micro-siemens
9.1.4 Requirements of Systems Using Water or Glycol
These guidelines apply to field leak checking and fluid requirements for field piping systems, including
Liebert chilled water, hot water, condenser (water or glycol), GLYCOOL and drycooler circuits.
General Guidelines
• Equipment damage and personal injury can result from improper piping installation, leak
checking, fluid chemistry and fluid maintenance.
• Follow local piping codes, safety codes.
• Qualified personnel must install and inspect system piping.
• Contact a local water consultant regarding water quality, corrosion protection and freeze
protection requirements.
• Install manual shutoff valves at the supply and return line to each indoor unit and drycooler to
permit routine service and emergency isolation of the unit.

NOTICE
Risk of frozen fluids. Can cause equipment damage and building damage.
Freezing system fluids can rupture piping. Complete system drain-down cannot be ensured.
When the field piping or unit may be exposed to freezing temperatures, charge the system
with the proper percentage of glycol and water for the coldest design ambient.
Automotive antifreeze is unacceptable and must NOT be used in any glycol fluid system.

NOTICE
Risk of corrosion. Can cause equipment damage.
Read and follow individual unit installation instructions for precautions regarding fluid
system design, material selection and use of field-provided devices. Liebert systems contain
iron and copper alloys that require appropriate corrosion protection.
Contact a water consultant about water quality, corrosion and freeze protection requirements.
Water chemistry varies greatly by location, as do the required additives, called inhibitors, that
reduce the corrosive effect of the fluids on the piping systems and components. The chemistry
of the water used must be considered, because water from some sources may contain corrosive
elements that reduce the effectiveness of the inhibited formulation. Preferably, surface waters
that are classified as soft and are low in chloride and sulfate ion content should be employed.
Proper inhibitor maintenance must be performed to prevent corrosion of system components.
Consult glycol manufacturer for testing and maintenance of inhibitors.
Commercial ethylene glycol (Union Carbide Ucartherm, Dow Chemical Dowtherm SR-1 and
Texaco E.G. Heat Transfer Fluid 100), when pure, is generally less corrosive to the common
metals of construction than water itself. It will, however, assume the corrosivity of the water from
which it is prepared and may become increasingly corrosive with use if not properly inhibited.

NOTICE
Risk of fluid leaks from tubing and piping corrosion. Can cause serious equipment and
building damage.
Idle fluid allows the collection of sediment that prevents the formation of a protective oxide
layer on the inside of tubes. Keep unit switched ON and system pump operating.

Leak Checking of Unit and Field Piping

Liebert unit fluid systems are factory-checked for leaks and may be shipped with a nitrogen holding
charge. Liebert unit fluid circuits should be checked for leaks at installation as described below.
NOTE
During leak checking of field-installed piping, Emerson recommends that the unit be isolated
using field-installed shutoff valves. When the Liebert units are included in a leak test, use of
fluid for pressure testing is recommended. When pressurized gas is used for leak testing the
Liebert unit, the maximum recommended pressure is 30 psig (2 bars) and tightness of the unit
should be verified by pressure decay over time, (<2 psig/hour [0.3 bars/hour]) or sensing a
tracer gas with suitable instrumentation. Dry seals in fluid valves and pumps may not hold a
high gas pressure.

9.2 Refrigeration Piping

! WARNING
Risk of explosive discharge from high-pressure refrigerant. Can cause injury or death.
This unit contains fluids and/or gases under high pressure.
Relieve pressure before working with piping.

! WARNING
Risk of refrigerant system rupture or explosion from over pressurization. Can cause
equipment damage, injury or death.
For systems requiring EU CE-compliance (50Hz), the system installer must provide and
install a discharge pressure relief valve rated for a maximum of 480 psig (34bar) in the high
side refrigerant circuit. Do not install a shutoff valve between the compressor and the field
installed relief valve. The pressure relief valve must be CE-certified to the EU Pressure
Equipment Directive by an EU “Notified Body.”

NOTE
The Liebert indoor cooling unit has a factory-installed high-pressure safety switch in the high
side refrigerant circuit. A pressure relief valve is provided with Liebert Lee-Temp™ condensers.
Consult local building codes to determine whether the Liebert Fan Speed Control and VFD
condensers will require field provided pressure relief devices.

NOTICE
Risk of oil contamination with water. Can cause equipment damage.
Some Liebert DS Systems require the use of POE (polyolester) oil. See 13.10.1 - Compressor
Oil for requirements. POE oil absorbs water at a much faster rate when exposed to air than
previously used oils. Because water is the enemy of a reliable refrigeration system, extreme
care must be used when opening systems during installation or service. If water is absorbed
into the POE oil, it will not be easily removed and will not be removed through the normal
evacuation process. If the oil is too wet, it may require an oil change. POE oils also have a
property that makes them act as a solvent in a refrigeration system. Maintaining system
cleanliness is extremely important because the oil will tend to bring any foreign matter back
to the compressor.

NOTICE
Risk of improper refrigerant charging. Can cause equipment damage.
Refrigerant charge must be weighed into scroll and digital scroll compressors before they are
started. Starting scroll and digital scroll compressors without proper refrigerant charging can
cause the compressors to operate at less than 5°F (-15°C) evaporator temperature and at less
than 20psig (138kPa). Operation for extended periods at less than 20psig (138kPa) can cause
premature compressor failure.

9.2.1 Piping Guidelines—Air-Cooled Units

• Indoor unit ships with a nitrogen holding charge; do not vent the evaporator until all refrigerant
piping is in place, ready for connection to the unit and condenser
• Use copper piping with high temperature brazed joints
• Isolate piping from building using vibration-isolating supports
• Refer to Table 48 for piping sizes
• Refer to condenser installation manual for charging information
• Install traps on hot gas (discharge) lines at the base of vertical risers and every 25 feet (7.6m) of
vertical rise.
• Consult factory if condenser is installed more than 15 feet (4.6m) below the evaporator
• Consult factory if piping run exceeds 150 feet (46m) equivalent length
• Keep piping clean and dry, especially on units with R-407C refrigerant
• Avoid piping runs through noise-sensitive areas
• Do not run piping directly in front of airstream
• Refrigerant oil – do not mix oil types (see 13.10.1 - Compressor Oil)
Refer to ASHRAE Refrigeration Handbook for general, good-practice refrigeration piping.

9.2.2 Scroll and Digital Scroll—Additional Oil Requirements

System charges over 40 lb (18.1kg) per circuit may require additional oil charge to be added. See
Table 52 for the amount required for various system charge levels.
After the system has been fully charged with refrigerant, use a hand pump to add the additional oil at
the suction side of the system while the system is running.
The amount of oil added by field service must be recorded on the tag marked “Oil Added Field Service
Record,” attached to each compressor. The date of oil addition must be included as well.

9.3 Dehydration/Leak Test and Charging Procedures for R-407C

9.3.1 Air-Cooled Condenser with Variable Fan Speed Head Pressure Control Systems
The Variable Fan Speed Control systems (FSC & VFD) use pressure activated electronic fan speed
control systems and remotely located thermostat(s) to ensure operation at ambient temperatures as
low as 0°F (-18°C). For this ambient temperature range, the VFD Control Condenser must be used
with digital scroll indoor units and can be used for energy savings with any Liebert DS indoor unit.

Variable Fan Speed Control Piping

Two discharge lines and two liquid lines must be field-installed between the indoor unit and the
outdoor condenser. See Figures 68 and 70 for details.

Variable Fan Speed Control Materials Supplied

• Built-in, pre-wired condenser control box
• Air-Cooled condenser
• Piping access cover to be reinstalled when piping is complete
• Bolts—four per leg (3/8" x 5/8")
• Terminal block for two-wire, 24V interlock connection between unit and condenser
• Condenser legs—four with 1-fan, 2-fan and 3-fan models; six with 4-fan models

Variable Fan Speed Control Leak Check and Evacuation Procedure

Proper leak check and evacuation can be accomplished only with all system solenoid valves open and
check valves accounted for.

NOTE
Systems with scroll, digital scroll and four-step semi-hermetic compressors include a
factory-installed check valve and an additional downstream Schrader valve with core in the
compressor discharge line. Proper evacuation of the condenser side of the compressor can be
accomplished only using the downstream Schrader valve. See piping schematic (Figure 69).

1. If unit power is available, open the unit liquid line solenoid valves using the evacuation function
for System #1 and System #2 in the diagnostic section of the Liebert iCOM control (refer to the
Liebert iCOM user manual, SL-18835). If unit power is not available, a field-supplied 24VAC /
75VA power source must be directly connected to each of the unit solenoid valves.
2. Connect refrigerant gauges to the suction rotalock valves and discharge line Schrader valves (see
Note above) on both compressors.
3. Starting with Circuit #1, open the service valves and place a 150 PSIG (1034 kPa) of dry nitrogen
with a tracer of refrigerant. Check system for leaks with a suitable leak detector.
4. With pressure still in Circuit #1, open the compressor service valves in Circuit #2. If pressure
increases in Circuit #2, the system is cross-circuited and must be rechecked for proper piping. If
there is no pressure increase, repeat the leak check procedure for Circuit #2.
5. After completion of leak testing, release the test pressure (per local code) and pull an initial deep
vacuum on the system with a suitable pump.
6. After four hours, check the pressure readings and, if they have not changed, break vacuum with
dry nitrogen. Pull a second and third vacuum to 250 microns or less. Recheck the pressure after
two hours. After completing this step, proceed to Variable Fan Speed Charging.

 Piping

Variable Fan Speed Charging

1. Check unit nameplate for refrigerant type to be used. Unit control configurations differ depending
on refrigerant type.
2. Refrigerant charging requires unit operation. Refer to 11.0 - Checklist for Completed
Installation.
3. Calculate the amount of charge for the system. Refer to the unit, condenser and refrigerant line
charge data in Tables 49, 50 and 51.
4. Weigh in as much of the system charge as possible before starting the unit.

! CAUTION
Risk of improper refrigerant charging. Can cause equipment damage.
Refrigerant R407C is a blend of three components and must be introduced and charged from
the cylinder only as a liquid.
When adding liquid refrigerant to an operating system, it may be necessary to add the
refrigerant through the compressor suction service valve. Care must be exercised to avoid
damage to the compressor. Emerson recommends connecting a sight glass between the
charging hose and the compressor suction service valve. This will permit adjustment of the
cylinder hand valve so that liquid can leave the cylinder while allowing vapor to enter the
compressor.

5. Turn on unit disconnect switch. Operate the unit for 30 minutes using the charging function for
System #1 and System #2 in the diagnostic section of the Liebert iCOM control (see Liebert iCOM
user manual, SL-18835). The charging function operates the compressor at full capacity and
energizes the blower motor and the liquid line solenoid valve. The reheat and humidifier are
disabled. A minimum 20psig (138kPa) must be established and maintained for the compressor to
operate. The charging function can be reset as many times as required to complete unit charging.

Due to control processing time, the pumpdown pressure at compressor shutoff will
be approximately 20psiG (138kPa) / 35psiA (241 kPa) even though the setpoint is
35 psiG (241 kPa) / 50 psiA (344kPa).

6. Charge the unit until the liquid line sight glass becomes clear. Then add one additional pound
(2.2kg) of refrigerant.
NOTE
A digital scroll compressor will have a clear sight glass only when operating at 100% capacity.
When operating below 100%, the sight glass may show bubbles with each 15-second unloading
cycle.
7. As head pressure builds, the variable fan speed controlled condenser fan begins rotating. The fan
will run at full speed when sufficient head pressure is developed—fan starts to rotate at 190 psig
(1310 kPA) and is full speed at 250 psig (1724 kPA).

check valves accounted for.
NOTE
Systems include a factory-installed check valve and an additional downstream Schrader valve
with core in the compressor discharge line. Proper evacuation of the condenser side of the
compressor can be accomplished only using the downstream Schrader valve. See piping
schematic (Figures 68).
1. If unit power is available, open the unit liquid line solenoid valves using the evacuation function
for System #1 and System #2 in the diagnostic section of the Liebert iCOM control. If unit power
is not available, a field-supplied 24VAC / 75VA power source must be directly connected to each of
the unit solenoid valves.
2. Attach a jumper hose from the service valve fitting on the outlet of the receiver and the Schrader
fitting on the discharge header of the condenser. Front-seat the service valve approximately
two (2) turns.
3. For semi-hermetic compressors, connect refrigeration gauges to the suction and discharge service
valves of both compressors.
4. For scroll and digital scroll compressors, connect refrigerant gauges to the suction rotalock valves
and discharge line Schrader valves (see Note above) on both compressors.
5. Starting with Circuit #1, open the service valves and place a 150 PSIG (1034 kPa) of dry nitrogen
with a tracer of refrigerant. Check system for leaks with a suitable leak detector.
6. With pressure still in Circuit #1, open the compressor service valves in Circuit #2. If pressure

• Inspect for leaks.

13.8 Reheat—Electric Reheat (Three-Stage and SCR)

• Inspect and clean reheat elements.
• Inspect and tighten support hardware.

13.9 Thermostatic Expansion Valve

The Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TEV) performs one function: It keeps the evaporator supplied
with enough refrigerant to satisfy load conditions. It does not effect compressor operation.
Proper valve operation can be determined by measuring superheat. The correct superheat setting is
between 10 and 20°F (-12 and -6°C). If too little refrigerant is being fed to the evaporator, the
superheat will be high; if too much refrigerant is being supplied, the superheat will be low.

13.9.1 Determine Suction Superheat

To determine superheat:
1. Measure the temperature of the suction line at the point the TEV bulb is clamped.
2. Obtain the gauge pressure at the compressor suction valve.
3. Add the estimated pressure drop between the bulb’s location and the suction valve.
4. Convert the sum of the two pressures to the equivalent temperature.
5. Subtract this temperature from the actual suction line temperature. The difference is superheat.

13.9.2 Adjust Superheat Setting with the TEV

To adjust the superheat setting:
1. Remove the valve cap at the bottom of the valve.
2. Turn the adjusting stem counterclockwise to lower the superheat.
3. Turn the adjusting stem clockwise to increase the superheat.

NOTE
Make no more than one turn of the stem at a time. As long as thirty minutes may be required
for the new balance to take place.

Requirements of Systems Using Water or Glycol.

13.13 Paradenser—Water-Cooled Condenser

During normal Paradenser operation, deposits will collect on inside wall of condenser tubes. It must
be cleaned periodically to ensure proper operation. Frequency of cleaning must be locally established
because it varies according to Paradenser usage and local fluid quality. See 13.12 - Facility Fluid
and Piping Maintenance.

13.14 Water/Glycol Control Valves

13.14.1Regulating Valves – Semi Hermetic and Standard Scroll Compressors
The water regulating valves automatically regulate the amount of fluid necessary to remove the heat
from the refrigeration system, permitting more water to flow when load conditions are high and less
fluid to flow when load conditions are low. The valve consists of a brass body, balance spring, valve
seat, valve disc holders, capillary tube to discharge pressure, and adjusting screw.

Adjustment—Johnson Controls Valves

The valves may be adjusted with a standard refrigeration service valve wrench or screwdriver.
Table 63 Recommended refrigerant pressures
System Design PSIG (kPa)
Water-Cooled
65 to 75°F water (18 to 24°C) 210 (1450)
85°F water (29°C) 225 (1550)
Glycol-Cooled 295 (2035)
Maximum 330 (2275)
High Pressure Cut-out 400 (2859)

To lower the head pressure setting, turn the square adjusting screw clockwise until the high pressure
gauge indicates the desired setting. To raise the head pressure setting, turn the adjusting screw
counterclockwise until the desired setting is obtained. Consult the factory if your unit is equipped
with valves from other manufacturers.

 Maintenance

Testing Function of Valve

First, turn off the refrigeration system. When the refrigeration system has been off for approximately
10 to 15 minutes, the water flow should stop. If the water continues to flow, the valve is either
improperly adjusted (with head pressure too low) or the pressure-sensing capillary is not connected
properly to the condenser.

Location
The water regulating valves are located in the condenser fluid supply line.

13.14.2Motor Ball Valve—Digital Scroll Compressors

On digital scroll units discharge pressure is controlled by a motorized ball valve. During unloaded
operation, the pressure changes during each digital cycle could result in excessive repositions with a
pressure operated water regulating valve. The control algorithm for the motorized ball valve uses an
intelligent sampling rate and adjustable pressure thresholds to reduce valve repositions. The valve
assembly consists of the brass valve, linkage and actuator.

Control
The valve actuator operates on 24VAC power and is controlled by a 2-10VDC proportional control
signal. The valve full open to full close time is 60 seconds. At 2VDC the valve is closed; at 10VDC the
valve is fully open. There is a 20-second delay to position the motorized ball valve before starting the
compressor.

Control Method
The control utilizes an upper and lower pressure threshold with a 35 PSI (241 kPa) deadband to
reduce valve movement. If the liquid pressure is between the upper and lower threshold the valve
remains at the current position. If the liquid pressure exceeds the upper threshold the valve opens,
and if the pressure falls below the lower threshold the valve closes. There are multiple adjustment
bands to ease discharge pressure back into control range.

Adjustment
Both pressure thresholds can be shifted simultaneously over a 50 PSI (345 kPa) range (the 35 PSI
[241 kPa] differential remains constant). The ball valve setpoint offset parameter in the Service menu
can be adjusted from 0 to 50 PSI (345 kPa) to raise or lower the control band similar to the pressure
adjustment on a water regulating valve. Changing the setpoint offset will adjust the pressure
thresholds for both circuits. Units are factory set at a 30 PSI (207 kPa) setpoint offset (30 PSI [207
kPa] above minimum). This results in a 220 PSIA (1517 kPa) lower threshold and a 255 PSIA (1758
kPa) upper threshold pressure.
Startup
The setpoint offset is adjusted to the minimum value during startup, then transitions to the set value
once the compressor reaches normal operating pressures. Due to the control dead band it is possible
for each circuit to stabilize at different pressures within the dead band. Additionally changes in fluid
temperature could cause pressure changes that do not result in valve movement within the dead
band. Fan cycling stats should be set to prevent continuous fluid temperature swings greater than
10oF (5.6oC) (see 13.14.3 - Drycooler Settings).
Location
The motorized ball valves are located in the condenser fluid return line. Three-way valves are piped
in a mixing arrangement with the common port at the valve outlet.
Manual Control
The valve can be manually set by disconnecting AC power, depressing the manual override button on
the valve actuator, and adjusting the valve position with the handle. Motorized ball valves may be
controlled through the Service menu using manual mode to override the normal control.

13.14.3Drycooler Settings
Applications with the Optional Stat Setting require field piping to be insulated to prevent
condensation. Table 64 shows acceptable applications where stats must be adjusted to Optional
Setting. Aquastats must be field-adjusted to Optional Setting for:
• GLYCOOL/Dual Cool applications
• Single Drycooler loops with motor ball valve flow controls (motor ball valves are used on all
Liebert DS units with digital compressors). These units have a “D” or “G” in the seventh
