INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The QCP Quick Connect Panel provides all the diagnostics that
medical equipment manufacturers require.
• Mount the QCP panel in a location where meters can be
read by the medical equipment operators. Consideration
should be given to the routing of chilled liquid line.
• Excessive pipe lengths cause heat gain as well as pressure
reduction. Locate the panel between the chiller and medical
equipment, preferably close to the medical equipment.The
closer the panel is to the medical heat exchanger, the more
useful the temperature readings will be.
• All coolant lines must be insulated to reduce heat gain and
to prevent condensation from forming during high humidity
conditions.
• The piping procedure simply consists of matching QCP
connections to the appropriate points and setting the ball
valves to the desired operation mode. (See Operation
Modes table on page 2.)
• If plumbing line size reduction is being considered, it
must be veried that proper ow and pressure can be
maintained. As a general rule, reducing the pipe size is not
recommended.
• When installation has been completed, put the unit in Full
Bypass Mode. Close the ball valve that feeds the city water
drain while lling the system. If this valve is left open while
the chiller is inoperative and being lled, the uid being
added to the system will run down the drain. Once the chiller
has been started, open this valve.
A list of plumbing/electrical connections to the QCP panel
and where they should be routed:
CITY WATER DRAIN*This connection is piped to a oor
drain or any other suitable water
disposal drain.
TO CHILLER Piped to the RETURN connection
at the chiller.
FROM CHILLER Piped to the chiller DISCHARGE
connection.
CITY WATER SUPPLY*Connect to the municipal water
supply for backup cooling.
FROM EQUIPMENT Piped to the discharge line of the
medical equipment.
SOLENOID COILS*Connect the wires in parallel and
refer to the chiller electrical dia-
gram.
* Optional equipment for QCP-AS
OPERATION
Your QCP will give you years of trouble-free service. Like any
other piece of ne equipment, occasional maintenance may
be required.You will soon discover the exibility designed into
the QCP. In most circumstances, service can be performed on
the unit or chiller without interrupting medical requirements.
There are ve operation modes of the QCP panel summa-
rized below:
1. NORMAL
OPERATION
The standard operating conguration. See
Mode 1 on next page and note location/
settings of valves and ow paths.
2. FULL
BYPASS
This conguration isolates the chiller from
the medical equipment. It can be used when
starting the chiller if the medical equipment
is not yet operational. The chilled water is
simply routed from the chiller discharge
back to the return line. See Mode 2 in chart
on next page and note location/settings of
valves and ow paths.
3. SERVICE
FLOW
METER
In the event the ow meter or other instru-
ments in this path need service, ow can
be routed as shown. See Mode 3 in chart
on next page and note location/settings of
valves and ow paths.
4. SERVICE
FILTER
Filter changes will be required when the
system is initially started and periodically
thereafter. This mode allows uninterrupted
service to the medical equipment while a l-
ter change takes place. See Mode 4 in chart
on next page and note location/settings of
valves and ow paths.
5. CITY
WATER
BACKUP*
This condition will occur if the chiller fails
and actuates solenoids 1 and 2. Notice that
the ow of water is from the city water con-
nection through the medical equipment
and down the drain. IMPORTANT: The city
water pressure must not exceed 80 p.s.i.
The automatic backup will only work if the
system was previously operating in Mode 1
(Normal Mode). See Mode 5 in charton next
page and note location/settings of valves
and ow paths.
* Optional equipment for QCP-AS

FILTER MAINTENANCE
The lter is a bag type. Using a 50 micron
bag, the pressure drop is less than 5 p.s.i.
when new.The lter should be changed
if the pressure drop across the unit ex-
ceeds 12 p.s.i. A spare lter should be
kept on hand at all times.
Study the flow path of Mode 4 op-
eration in the chart to the right. This
conguration allows the replacement
of the lter element while delivering
uninterrupted flow to the medical
equipment.This will probably be the rst
routine maintenance performed on the
QCP. Since the system is a closed loop,
the coolant will eventually be cleaned
of all contamination and lter changes
will become rare.
If repeated city water operation is
actuated, lter contamination is likely.
The lter element should be changed
when the pressure drop across the unit
is greater than 12 p.s.i.g.
