possible, all exposed parts shall be inspected before storage and all surfaces that have the paint
scratched, damaged or worm shall be re-coated with air dry enamel paint.
 Special care shall be taken by the store keeper to protect the material from physical damage and
distortion.
 Material should be stored on site before installation in properly stored area
 On receipt of the material at site, QA/QC Engineer / Site Mechanical Engineer shall inspect the
material internally and inspection shall be offered to the consultant for approval of material
inspection request (MIR) form.
 Where further information / clarification in respect of contract drawings is required, the matter
shall be referred to the contractor by means of a request for information (RFI)
 Chillers shall be internally inspected and ensured that the chillers are per approved material
submittal
 In order to pull the chillers out from the container, at least 8-10 tons of capacity of fork lift or
shovel along with belt is required.
 A rolling bar can be kept near the door of the container to manage the gap between container
and ground, also this will help the chiller to roll on it and come out smoothly.

safety requirements.
 Proper protection shall be given to chiller fans by means of covering the units with tarpaulin
sheets, if stored in open areas, as per manufacturer’s recommendation.
 Chiller units stored shall be protected from direct sun light.
9.2 PRE-INSTALLATION CHECK OF WATER TANK CHILLERS
 Prior to commencement of work, areas and access shall be inspected by site supervisor/ foreman
to confirm that site is ready to commence the work.

 The inlet/outlet label in the water chiller shows the connection details of the chiller
 The pipe work connected to the water chiller must be of adequate size.
 The water chiller must have enough access for installation and re-installation and all the
piping must have proper support if needed.
 The chiller with factory-installed hydronic circuits is designed for use with closed systems.
Since closed and open water systems behave very differently, these instructions assume that
the chilled water loop is closed.
 The system must be constructed with pressure tight components and thoroughly tested for
installation leaks.
 Installation of water system should follow sound engineering practice as well as applicable
local and industry standards.
 The water connection to the unit should be of stainless steel or PVC. Any pipe connection to
the chiller water package should be of material which does not cause any galvanic corrosion.
For this reason, galvanized steel pipe or other dissimilar metals must not be used.
 MODEL WATER CONNECTION ,
All single circuit refrigeration models – 1” inlet and outlet
All twin circuit models – 1 ¼” inlet and outlet
Follow the steps given below in connecting the water connection to the unit.
1. Assemble the serrated adapter in the inter-outer ball valves.
2. Fix the flexible braided hose through the serrations.
3. Use hose clamps for clamping the flexible hose.
4. Stainless steel pipe also can be fitted by ensuring leak-tight joints at threads.
 Ensure that all wires and cables are of the correct size as voltage/ ampere requirements of
the units. Check the isolator selection/ capacity of the chillers. Check the cable sizing which
