Introduction
Non-condensable gases such as air, hydrogen, nitrogen and
hydrocarbons reduce the overall eciency of refrigeration
systems. e eects of non-condensable gases, in a refrigeration
system, increase the system operating pressures. ese in turn
negatively aect system performance. Increased compressor
discharge temperature, higher energy costs, reduced system
eciency, leaks due to higher pressures, and increased wear on
mechanical components are all negative consequences of non-
condensable gases in refrigeration systems.
e build-up of non-condensable gases in the system can be
attributed to several factors. ese include inadequate system
evacuation during service of system equipment, additions of
refrigerant, leaks through external seals on equipment as well as
refrigerant, and oil decomposition.
Common indicators of non-condensable gases in the system
are excessively high condensing pressure or temperature and
deviations in the pressure and temperature relationship at
saturation conditions. is can be determined by checking the
temperature and pressure relationship at a known point in the
system where the refrigerant is saturated, such as the condenser
drain legs or high pressure receiver, as illustrated in Figure 1.

A higher temperature measured at this point, compared to the
saturation pressure, indicates the presence of non-condensable
gases in the system.
Purging non-condensable gas from a refrigeration system can be
accomplished manually, mechanically or automatically. Manual
purging generally involves personnel removing air from specied
purge “points” within the system through hand shut o valves
routed to a water bucket. Mechanical purging is achieved by use
of a device which will allow air to escape to a water reservoir
when air is present. e latter method is automatic purging,
which is generally achieved by the use of a self-contained system
incorporating microprocessor controls. ese are designed to
sample the non-condensable gases and refrigerant mixture and
purge when non-condensable gases are present.
Mechanical and automatic air purging units, commonly referred
to as “purgers”, are manufactured by several companies. Each
manufacturer’s purger operates in its own unique way. is article
will focus specically on the automatic purgers manufactured by
Parker Hannin Refrigerating Specialties Division.
e most common purge points in a refrigeration system are at
the condenser drain, pilot receivers, thermosyphon receivers,
high pressure receivers, liquid drain header, equalizing lines,
and low velocity-high side areas.
Purge points should be located to ensure no liquid refrigerant
is drawn into the purger. e Rapid Purger V300 has a liquid
drainer at the foul gas inlet to prevent any liquid refrigerant from
entering the shell side of the heat exchanger.
Figure 2: Purger Fill & Pre-Cool Cycle
Purge Cycle
e purge cycle consists of three main processes: ll & pre-cool,
separation of non condensable gases & refrigerant, and the safe
release of the non-condensable gases.
1. Fill & Pre-Cool (See Figure 2 for a graphic representation of
this c ycle)
is cycle begins with high pressure liquid ammonia feeding
through the liquid solenoid, check valve and orice (causing
expansion) into the V300’s heat exchanger. e liquid
solenoid stays energized until the level of ammonia in the
heat exchanger is sensed by the level sensor. e level sensor
is strategically located so that all of the tubes in the heat
exchanger are lled with liquid ammonia. is guarantees
the highest level of performance.
e V300 Rapid Purger will stay in the “Pre-Cool” mode until
the shell of the heat exchanger reaches a temperature of 4.4ºC
(40ºF) or lower. is is determined by the temperature of the
suction the purger is tied into. Once the purger reaches the
required temperature, the purger will enter the active mode.
To prevent a vacuum type situation, the A2B evaporator
pressure regulator, located on the return suction line, is set at
Figure 3: Purger Separation of Non-Condensable Gases &
Refrigerant Cycle
0.34 barg (5 psig). is will prevent the heat exchanger from
reaching temperature below -29ºC (-20ºF).
2. Separation of Non-Condensable Gases & Refrigerant (See
Figure 3 for a graphic representation of this cycle)
Once the ll and pre-cool cycle reaches the desired
temperature and liquid level, it selects a purge point and
commences a purge cycle by activating a solenoid located on
the high side of the system, as illustrated in Figure 1.
With an active purge point, the non-condensable gases and
refrigerant mix, also known as foul gas, enters the shell side
of the heat exchanger through the liquid drainer, check valve
and a ow control orice. Any liquid that has condensed in
the purge lines will collect in the liquid drainer and return
directly to the suction. If the foul gas line does not contain
condensed liquid and any remaining liquid in the liquid
drainer evaporates to the suction, the liquid drainer ow
control ball will prevent any foul gas from entering the
suction line by blocking the orice at the bottom of the liquid
drainer tank, forcing the foul gas through the ow control
orice.

Figure 4: Purger Release of Non-Condensable Gases
Figure 5: Purger Dimensional Information
After going through the control orice the foul gas passes
over the tubes in the heat exchanger and residual refrigerant
is condensed. Liquid accumulation in the shell side of
the heat exchanger continues until the level reaches the
dierential check valve, where the liquid is recycled back
to the liquid makeup side of the heat exchanger. is
“Recycling” of ammonia reduces the need to call for more
makeup refrigerant to maintain the liquid level on the tube
side of the heat exchanger.
e Rapid Purger V300 can only purge one point at any given
time. In the separation of non-condensable gases, purging is
done automatically and eectively with built in control features
such as purge sampling.
In automatic mode, each purge point is sampled for a minimum
of ve minutes. If the purge conditions are not met within the
sample time limit, the Rapid Purger continues to the next purge
point. When a purge point meets the purge conditions within
the sample time limit, the Rapid Purger starts the purge cycle.
e purge cycle shuts o when non-purge conditions are met.
3. Release of Non-Condensable Gases (See Figure 4 for a graphic
representation of this cycle)
Non-condensable gases will continue to accumulate in
the “Vapor Vent Float” chamber as it is separated from
the refrigerant. Once the volume of these gases in the
oat chamber rises past the target pressures, based on the
sampled temperature, the vent and water solenoids are
energized and the non-condensable gases are released into
the water bubbler. For safe disposal, the non-condensable
gases are diluted in the water.
Any oil that may collect in the V300 purger can be drained from
the two oil drains. Before draining the oil, shut-o the purger
and close the liquid and foul gas valves. Allow the purger to
pump out any remaining refrigerant and close the suction line
valve. Use normal oil draining precautions to prevent injury or
property damage
Installation
All purgers are packed for a maximum protection. Unpack
carefully. Check the carton to make sure all items are unpacked.
Save the enclosed instructions for the installer and eventual user.
Do not remove the protective coverings until the purger is ready to
be installed.
e V300 Rapid Purger includes three 1⁄2" socket weld (SW) shut-
off isolation valves used for the suction, liquid, and foul gas lines.
A 1⁄4" national pipe thread (NPT) 30-150 psig ammonia pressure
gauge is also included for monitoring the suction line.
The V300 Rapid Purger includes a provision for customers to have
the option to install Parker Safety Relief Valves. The recommended
safety relief valve is the SR1R which uses a 1⁄2" inlet connection and
a 3⁄4" outlet connection.
Once the purger is ready to be installed we recommend the
following installation procedure. These instructions are for a new
system installation. If the purger is being installed in an existing
system or replacing an existing purger, the high pressure liquid,
foul gas, and suction lines must be isolated and pumped out.
1. Mount the Rapid Purger to a wall or structure that can easily
handle its weight and installation hardware. e approximate
weight of the purger is 34.5 kg (76 lbs). Figure 5 provides
dimensional information for the mounting holes, line locations
and overall purger height, width and length.
If mounting the purger outside it is recommended that it be
protected from natural elements like the sun, rain, etc. e
outside ambient temperature cannot exceed a range of 2°C to
54°C (35°F to 130°F).

Figure 7: Water Line Connections
Make sure to leave access for servicing the unit if required. e
recommended clearance zone, as shown in Figure 5, is 254 mm
(10") for the top and sides. e bottom of the purger must be
free of obstructions to allow for water drain and oil removal.
2. Properly locate, support and align the systems high pressure
liquid, foul gas and suction lines with the purger.
Note: To prevent oil from entering the heat exchanger and
reducing performance of the purger, it is recommended to
tie the liquid line in from the side or top of the desired liquid
piping. We also recommended connecting the suction line
from the purger to the low side system suction. is will allow
setting of the A2 regulator for optimal performance down to a
minimum of 0.34 barg (5 psig).
3. Weld in the three 1⁄2" SW shut-off isolation valves. Make sure
the connections are free from debris and corrosion. For more
installation instruction on hand shut-off valves, refer to the
RSBHV safety bulletin located in the purger packet.
Before welding the system’s high pressure liquid, foul gas and
suction lines to the hand shut-off valves, they need to be in the
open position. Normally, it is not necessary to disassemble
valves for welding. However, if welding is prolonged enough
to overheat the body, a wet rag should be wrapped around
the valve bonnet and upper body during welding. e codes
applicable to the welding of socket weld valves require that
the pipe be inserted into the socket until bottomed against the
stop. e pipe is then to be backed out approximately 1⁄16 of an
inch before welding.
4. Remove the purger flange connections, with the welded stubs,
from the high pressure liquid, foul gas and suction line. e
anges are highlighted, in gray, in Figure 6.
5. Wait several minutes before welding the purger anges to
the hand shut-o valves. Be certain the mating surface of the
ange is parallel to the mating ange and perpendicular to the
pipe axis. Again, the hand shut-off valves must be in the open
position prior to welding. Check the connections to make sure
they are free from debris.
6. After the shut-o valves and purger anges have been installed
wait several minutes to cool down from the welding process.
e hand shut-o valves must be put in the closed position to
prevent any ammonia from entering the heat exchanger prior
to nishing the installation. If the valves are closed before the
heat dissipates from the welds, the seat can be damaged.
7. Using the same ange nuts and bolts, reconnect the anges
to the purger and tighten them progressively. For more
information on ange torque specication, please reference
the IIAR 2-2008 Section 10 documentation.
8. Purge the water line to remove any contaminants prior to
connecting it to the water feed solenoid, highlighted in gray in
Figure 7. is will prevent the solenoid valve, ow switch and
water lines from becoming plugged. Apply Teon tape/paste to
the 1⁄4" NPT threaded nipple prior to threading it into the water
solenoid.
9. Install a water drain line for the bubbler. e connection for
the drain line is 3⁄4"-14 FPT. Follow your local codes on how to
properly dispose of the water after a purge.
10. Check and verify both oil drain valves, shown in Figure 6, are
closed by removing the seal cap and turning the adjustment
stem clockwise. If the adjustment stem does not move it means
the valve is fully seated. Do not over tighten; it can damage the
seat and be a potential leak point.
11. Open the purger control panel to start wiring the purge points
and power supply, see Figure 8 for wiring diagram. All common
lines should tie together at the DIN rail terminal blocks.
Coil common, shown in Figure 8, on the purge point solenoids
connections are common to the relay. Incoming line power
(120/240 volts) should be supplied to these terminals. An
incoming neutral should be supplied to one of each of the coil

leads. e other coil lead should be attached to the N.O. or coil
neutral terminal for each independent purge point solenoid
(S6N, S8F).
e terminal blocks supplied with the purger accept wire
from 12-22 AWG wire. For wire sizes smaller than 12 AWG,
wire pin terminals are supplied to make installation easier.
It is recommended to use the pin terminals for the optimal
electrical connection. e maximum allowable torque for the
eld wiring terminals is 0.4 Nm (3.5 in-lbs).
Input power to the controller should not exceed a maximum
of 265 VAC. If voltage spikes in excess of this are expected, a
surge suppressor must be installed.
On the bottom of the purger control enclosure are access
ports to feed the power and purger point wire connections.
Wire only one purge point solenoid to each controller contact
relay.
CAUTION: e controller is not to be connected to rigid
metallic conduit. Nonmetallic enclosures do not provide
grounding between conduit connections. Use grounding
bushings and jumper wires when connecting to metal conduit
or equivalent.
12. e purger may be commissioned once the unit is properly
connected to the associated piping within the ammonia system
and all power connections are securely established.
13. Supply power to the purger and wait for the start up screen
to display. Follow the instructions on the display screen and
familiarize yourself with the control panel’s interface, see
Figure 9.
On startup, the purger will enter a 15 second delay. is allows
the bubbler to ll with water before starting any purge cycles.
If the water bubbler does not ll to the recommended water
level press and hold the (INIT) button on the controller keypad
to energize the water solenoid valve. When water begins to
drain from the overow tube, release the (INIT) button to de-
energize the water solenoid valve.
WARNING: Because both the water and vent solenoids are
energized at the same time, this procedure must be done prior
to opening the system to refrigeration. Failure to do so will
result in venting of ammonia.
SAFETY FEATURE: e temperature controller and sensor are
wired in series with the pressure switch. is prevents venting
of non-condensed refrigerant to the water bubbler before the
heat exchanger reaches the desired temperature.
If the automatic startup does not activate, the process will have
to be performed manually. Press the MENU button on the
control panel interface to enter the display screen and follow
the startup instructions located further in the document.
14. When the initial startup is complete, the startup screen can
be exited by pressing the MENU button on the control panel
interface. is will bring you to the main display screen where
the actual temperature and pressure, target vent, active purge
point, number of vents, duration of vent and solenoid activity
is displayed.
e main display screen, on startup, is always in English. To
change the language follow the language setting instructions
located in appendix A.
15. e number of purge points for the system needs to be dened
with the required sample time for each point. To setup the
purge points, follow the purger type and purge points setting
instructions located further in this document. e purge mode
can also be set to either automatic, time based or manual
purging.
16. Now that the purger is properly installed and commissioned,
the high pressure liquid, foul gas, and suction lines can be
opened to the purger. Slowly open each line, no order required,
and check for leaks. If there no leaks, continue opening the
hand shut-o valves to full open.
e purger will automatically start establishing the conditions
required for purging.
All other setup instructions, such as date setup, time setup, display
settings, history, etc. can be found in appendix A.

Procedure Instructions
Oil Draining
Review your facilities procedures on how to properly pump down and drain oil from a vessel before attempting to drain oil
from the purger heat exchanger. The following instructions are a recommendation and my not fall within the PM program of
your facility.
1. Follow the facilities oil draining procedures on how to properly extract oil from a vessel. The RSBCV safety bulletin,
located in the purger packet, provides additional safety and pump out instructions. Read these instructions prior on
continuing to the next step.
2. The purger heat exchanger must be isolated and pumped out before removing the oil. Close the hand shut-off valves
to the high pressure liquid and foul gas line. Keep the suction hand shut-off valve open to pump down the heat
exchanger.
Note: The purger controller can remain powered through the draining oil maintenance procedure.
3. Manually open the SV2 solenoid, #6 in the exploded view, on the high pressure liquid line by removing the seal cap and
turning the manual opening stem clockwise until only the ats on the end of the stem protrude from the packing nut.
This will prevent liquid ammonia from being trapped between the liquid hand shut-off valve and SV2 solenoid.
4. Use the HSBR level switch as a ammonia level indicator. When the LEDs turn off, the system will call for liquid, but the
liquid hand shut-off valve is preventing any additional liquid from entering the purger, pumping out the heat exchanger.
5. Allow the purger to pump out a few more minutes before closing the suction line hand shut-off valve. The remaining
ammonia in the system will pressurize the vessel and assist in draining the oil.
6. Purge one oil drain line at a time. Slowly crack open the shell side oil drain valve, see Figure 6, and discharge the oil
into the proper container accepted by safety codes and standards.
WARNING: Do not open the oil drain valves completely.
7. When the oil is done draining close the oil drain valve.
8. Repeat steps 6 thru 7 for the tube side oil drain valve.
9. After draining all the oil from the purger heat exchanger the system is ready to go back online. Return the SV2 solenoid
valve back to automatic mode by turning the stem counter clockwise as far as it will go. Loosen the packing nut before
tuning the stem and re-tighten after the stem out.
10. Slowly open each line, no order required, and check for leaks. If there no leaks continue opening the hand shut-off
valves to full open. The purger will automatically start establishing the conditions required for purging.
