1.1.3 Product features
The all-inverter modular air-cooled chillers work outstandingly by virtue of their major features stated
below.
(1) Excellent compatibility
The modular air-cooled chillers can be constructed of multiple single units with the same or different
structure or capability (35kW, 60kW, 65kW, 130kW). For the 35kW unit, it has only one cooling system; for
the 60kW, 65kW units, they are of two independent systems; for the 130 kW unit, there are four uniform
independent systems. Up to 16 single units can be modularized, with cooling capacity ranging from 35kW
to 1040kW.
(2) Comfort and energy saving
The inverter can quickly respond to load change and lead to decreased water temperature uctuation
and better comfort.
(3) Ultra quiet operation
The high-efficiency and low-noise fan blades and motor as well as the optimized air passage can
greatly lower operation noise of the unit. Besides, the quite mode can provide the user a ultra-quiet
environment.
(4) Powerful self-protection
It is equipped with the top-end microcomputer control system which is capable of providing well-
rounded protection and self-diagnosis.
(5) High reliability
It is constructed of well-designed refrigeration parts and well-designed system, structure and electric
control, adequately guaranteeing reliable operation.
(6) Remote ON/OFF
The unit can be started or stopped by the ON/OFF key operation.
(7) Equilibrium running
It indicates each compressor will run alternately so as to extend their service life.
(8) Shiftwork of water pumps
Two water pumps can work alternately with equilibrium runtime so as to extend their service life and
lower the maintenance difculty.

Anti-freezing and over-temperature sensor
Input
Description:
(1) A water ow cutout is used to judge the water ow rate. When the ow rate is too low, it will trip off,
and the control board will send this signal to the display and the water pump. Then, the display will
tell there is an error, the water pump will stop and the unit will stop or will not start.
(2) A high/low pressure cutout is used to judge the system pressure. When the system pressure is too
high/low, it will trip off, and the control board will send this signal to the display. Then, the display
will tell there is an error and the unit will stop or will not start.
(3) An ambient temperature sensor is used to detect the temperature of the environment where the
unit is which will determine whether to start or stop the fan and determine the steps of the electric
expansion valve when initializing. When this sensor fails, the control board will detect and send this
signal to the display. Then, the display will tell there is an error and the unit will stop or will not start.
(4) A discharge temperature sensor is used to detect the discharge temperature. When the sensed
temperature is too high or this sensor fails, the control board will detect and send this signal to the
display. Then, the display will tell there is an error and the unit will stop or will not start.

Unit Control
(5) An entering water temperature sensor is used to detect the temperature of the entering water which
will determine whether to start or stop the compressor and the auxiliary electric heater. When this
sensor fails, all compressors of the unit will stop.
(6) Defrost temperature sensor is used to detect the liquid tube temperature of fins serving the
condenser, which will determine whether to start the fan. When the sensed temperature is too
high or this sensor fails, the control board will detect and send this signal to the display. Then, the
display will tell there is an error and the unit will stop or will not start.
(7) An anti-freezing and overheating prevention temperature sensor is used to detect the water
temperature. When it fails, compressors and fans of the corresponding unit will stop.
(8) A leaving water temperature sensor is used to detect the leaving water temperature. When this
sensor fails, compressors and fans of the corresponding unit will stop.
(9) An air temperature sensor on shell-and-tube heat exchanger is used to detect the air temperature.
When this sensor fails, the compressor in a cooling state will have to be stopped and the display
will tell there is an error. If the sensor fails in a heating state, only the display will tell an error.
(10) An liquid temperature sensor on shell-and-tube heat exchanger is used to detect the liquid
temperature. When this sensor fails, the compressor in a cooling state will have to be stopped and
the display will tell there is an error. If the sensor fails in a heating state, only the display will tell an
error.
(11) A suction temperature sensor is used to detect the suction temperature. When this sensor fails, the
compressor in a cooling state will have to be stopped and the display will tell there is an error. If the
sensor fails in a heating state, only the display will tell an error.
(12) High-pressure sensor is used to detect the discharge pressure. When the detected temperature is
too high, control the compressor to regulate the frequency of discharge.
