1 Introduction
1.1 General notes
 This water chiller complies fully with EC-machine directives and all its main
components are UL and CSA listed.
 The Company does not accept responsibility if safety regulations are not met
during handling, operation, maintenance and repair, even though these may
not be strictly stated in this operation manual.
 We recommend the translation of this operation manual into the native
language of foreign workers.
 The usability and life cycle of the water chiller as well as avoiding premature
repairs depends on proper operation, maintenance, care and competent
repair under consideration of this operation manual.
 We are constantly updating our products and are confident that they respond
to the latest scientific and technological demands. However, as
manufacturers, we do not always know the end use or the total range of our
products’ applications. Therefore we cannot accept liability for our products in
applications where additional safety measures may be necessary. We highly
recommend that users inform us of the intended application in order to
undertake additional safety measures, if necessary.

1.2 Safety regulations


The operator has to observe the national working, operating and safety
regulations. Also, existing internal factory regulations must be met.
Maintenance and repair work must only be carried out by specially trained
personnel and, if necessary, under supervision of a person qualified for this

2 Installation

2.1 Reception and Inspection

On receipt of the Ultracool unit, it must be inspected for damage during


transport. In the case of any damage, external or internal, this cannot be
referred to the manufacturer because all units are checked before dispatch. If
any damage is observed, this should be documented and reported to the
forwarding company. The LAUDA Ultracool S.L. warranty does not include
any damages incurred during transportation.

The refrigerant circuit controls are set before shipment of the unit. They should
not be re-adjusted under any circumstances (except by an authorized service
agent). This would void the warranty of the unit.

2.2 Transportation

Keep the unit upright at all times. Do not tilt when shipping or moving. The
tilting of the Ultracool unit may affect the internal suspension of the
refrigerant compressor.

The Ultracool unit must be transported by pallet jack or forklift truck.

2.3 Site
We recommend the installation of the Ultracool unit in a well-ventilated site and
in a non-corrosive, dust-free atmosphere. The air renewal of the room should be
at least ¾ of chiller’s motor fan flow (see point 7).

The electrical protection degree of the Ultracool unit is IP44. The chiller must be
protected from rain with a roof and it must be installed in such way that the
control panel receives as few direct sunlight as possible.

The inlet of fresh air onto the condenser should be in the most direct way
possible, avoiding any chance of air recycling.

The chiller must be installed on a solid level surface that is capable of


supporting a minimum of 150 kg (330 lb).

Drain. depending on version.

2.5 Water Connection

Leave at least 1,5 metres (5 feet) of flexible pipe right after the chiller’s inlet
and outlet connections. This will allow moving the chiller for a better
maintenance access without dismantling the water pipes.

The chiller should be located as close as possible to the application. Pressure


drop in the pipe should not exceed 0,5 bar (7 psi). The water lines must be
in pipes of at least ½". Maximum total pipe length depends on the pipe
size:

Maximum total pipe length


pipe diameter ½" 30 m (100 feet)
pipe diameter ¾" 60 m (200 feet)

Equivalent Length for Common Fittings and Valves:

Type of Fitting or Valve


Curve 90º Ball Valve
Equivalent pipe 1,5 0,3
length m (feet) (5) (1)

Minimize the number of elbows in the water lines. The length of hose, number of
fittings, valves, etc. will also cause an increase of the pressure drop.

We strongly advise the installation of thermal insulation for all pipes to


minimize thermal losses or, at least, making sure that the pipes are
opaque to the light.

The water connection of the installation of the Ultracool unit must be carried out
according to the indications of the labels (stickers) present on the unit. The tank
has to be filled directly by removing the chiller and tank covers.

The chiller can be installed above the application. If the chiller is installed below
it, the height difference between the chiller and the application should never
exceed 10 m (33 feet).

In the installations in which the water level of the circuit exceeds the
maximum level of the tank inside the Ultracool unit, it will be necessary to
install a non-return valve in the water outlet of the Ultracool unit and a
solenoid valve in the water inlet. Terminals at 230 VAC are designed for that
purpose to carry out the supply of this solenoid valve (see electrical diagram).

2.6 Electrical Connection

The electrical design of the Ultracool complies with EN-60204 norms.

Check that the supply voltage does not exceed a maximum variation of +/-10%
from the nominal value indicated on the data plate of the chiller.

For the electrical supply of the Ultracool unit, use an appropriate electrical line
according to the data in the characteristics plate.

The chiller has some special terminals prepared for the following functions:

- Terminals 23 and 24, remote On/Off operation: This chiller can be turned
On and Off remotely by using an external dry contact connected to these
two terminals: Contact Open = chiller Off, Contact Closed = chiller On.
If this function is not used, do not remove the wire bridge between 23
and 24. The chiller will not turn On if these contacts are not bridged.

- Terminals 25 and 26, external solenoid valve connection: They can be


used to supply a solenoid valve with 230VAC. If the pipes or the application
are installed above the level of the chiller’s outlet this valve prevents
backflow when the chiller is stopped (see point 2.5). These terminals are at
230V only when the water pump is working.

- Terminals 27 and 28, external alarm report signal: These terminals


provide a dry contact for a general alarm of the chiller. The behaviour of this
contact can be adjusted in order to open or close when there is an alarm
(see point 4.2).

A system of fuses or circuit breakers must be installed before the power


inlet connection to the Ultracool unit. The maximum size of these
protections is defined in the Ultracool characteristics plate.

3.1 Operation Conditions

Water temperature at the inlet:

Nominal: 15ºC (59ºF)


Maximum: 30ºC (86ºF)

Cold water temperature at the outlet:

Nominal: 10ºC (50ºF)


Minimum: 7ºC (45ºF) (1)
Maximum: 25ºC (77ºF)

Temperature of the ambient air:

Nominal: 25ºC (77ºF)


Minimum: 0ºC (32ºF) (2)
Maximum: 50ºC (122ºF)

(1) The Ultracool units can work with cold water temperatures lower than 7ºC
(45ºF). To do so, add ethylene glycol to the water and contact an authorized
service engineer to adjust the chiller.

(2) When the Speed Regulator (SR) option is included, the Ultracool units can
work with ambient temperatures until –15ºC (5ºF). To do so, add ethylene glycol
to the water and contact an authorized service engineer to adjust the chiller.

Only an authorized service engineer can adjust the antifreeze setpoint.


The following table shows the ethylene glycol concentration and the antifreeze
adjustment required.

(3)The ethylene glycol percentage is given as % measured as weight of the total


mixture. In case of any modification in the quantity of water in the installation,
the concentration of ethylene glycol should be checked.

If more volume is required it is necessary to keep the ethylene glycol


concentration

Do not use automotive antifreeze. Use lab grade ethylene glycol only! Do
not use an ethylene glycol concentration above 30%; this would damage
the water pump.

3.2 Before start-up of the Ultracool unit

Clean the application water circuit with tap water in order to be sure that there
are no free particles inside. Otherwise the filter element can block up during the
start-up process.

The following points must be checked:


- Water connections have been carried out (see point 2.5).
- External electrical protection is connected (see point 2.6).

3.3 Chiller start-up

Fill the tank with water of the required quality (see annex 10), the suitable
glycol concentration according to point 3.1 and the Refrifluid B additive
supplied with the chiller (2 liters per each 100 liters of water tank volume).
Fill it directly to the tank until the maximum level of the tank is reached. After
filling the tank make sure to remove any air left inside the water pump by
unscrewing its purge screw until water comes out of it:

Open the water inlet and outlet valves completely as shown on the following
pictures:

Start the Ultracool unit with the On/Off switch. After a couple of minutes or when
the chiller stops by low level alarm (FL alarm), stop the Ultracool unit and refill
the tank to the maximum water level.

Repeat this procedure until the water level in the tank remains constant.

When refilling the tank respect the ethylene glycol concentration as per
point 3.1.

Close gradually the manual valve at the Ultracool outlet to adjust the Pump
pressure on the Pump pressure gauge (see point 4.1) to the “Pnom. 1” value
(Nominal pressure) indicated on the carachteristics plate of the Ultracool:

The fridge circuit has an initial delay of 2 minutes after switching the chiller On
before it can start. After this time, if the water tank temperature is at least 2ºC
(3.6F) above the programmed value (see point 4.2), the fridge circuit starts and
begins lowering the temperature.

4.1 Components of the Control Panel

The control panel consists of the following elements:

1. Pump pressure gauge: It indicates the working pressure of the pump.


While the chiller is running, its reading must be adjusted to the nominal
pressure indicated on the characteristics plate (Pnom. 1, see point 3.3).

2. Filter pressure gauge: It indicates the pressure drop of the water filter and
the evaporator.

3. On/Off switch: It turns the Ultracool unit On and Off.

4. Controller: It indicates the cold water temperature at the outlet of the


Ultracool unit and allows changing its setpoint.

4.2 Controller operation

Standby mode: The controller has a Standby mode available. When the
controller is in this mode, all motors in the Ultracool unit are stopped, but the
display continues to read the water tank temperature.

When the chiller is running, the On/Standby indicator is lit. When the chiller is in
Standby, this indicator remains off.

To turn the chiller On while in Standby mode or to go to Standby mode while the
chiller is running, keep the Up button pressed during a few seconds, until the
On/Standby indicator toggles On or Off.

Make sure to keep the Up button pressed continuously until the


On/Standby indicator lights up; if the pressing is interrupted the controller
goes into “Temperature probe reading” mode (see below) and does not
turn the chiller On. If this happens, press the Prg button to exit this mode
and try pressing Up again with no interruptions.

On/Standby memory: When the chiller is turned Off with the On/Off switch and
later it is switched back On, the controller stays in the same mode (“On” or
“Standby”) it was when the switch was turned Off.
This means that, if the chiller was originally in Standby mode when it was last
switched off, the chiller will not turn On automatically after the On/Off switch is
turned back On, it will remain in Standby mode.
To start the chiller again, just use the Up key as indicated above. Alternatively, if
a remote On/Off contact is being used, the chiller can also be turned On
remotely. To do so, send an On signal by opening and then closing the remote
contact connected to terminals 23 and 24.

Temperature probe reading: During normal controller operation, pressing Up


for less than 5 seconds allows displaying the current values of the different
probes of the chiller. In this mode, pressing Up and Down selects the probe
(b01, b02, ...) and pressing Sel displays the temperature currently being read by
the selected probe.
While in this mode, the controller lights up the On/Standby indicator and a
snowflake symbol.
To exit this mode, press Prg or do not press any button for at least 60 seconds.

Setting the temperature: Use the following procedure to adjust the required
working temperature (between –5ºC (23ºF) and 25ºC (77ºF)):

- Press the Sel button for about 5 seconds. The display will show "- / -".
- Press Down until the display shows "- r -".
- Press Sel and the display will show "r01". This parameter is the temperature
setpoint.
- Press Sel to display the current setpoint value.
- Use the Up and Down buttons to increase or to decrease the value of the
setpoint.
- Press Sel to confirm the new value. The display will show "r01".
- Press Prg three times to exit the setpoint modification procedure. The display
will show again the water tank temperature.

Alarm indicator: When an alarm or a warning is active, the controller lights up


the Alarm indicator. If the alarm only affects the refrigerant circuit, the
compressor stops. If the alarm affects the water circuit the compressor and the
water pump both stop.

The display can show the following alarm and warning codes:

- Alarm code FL: Low water level.


- Alarm code A1: Antifreeze alarm.
- Alarm code LP1: Low refrigerant pressure.
- Alarm code HP1: High refrigerant pressure.
- Alarm code E1 or E2: temperature sensor faulty.
- Alarm code EPr : EEPROM error during operation.
- Alarm code EPb: EEPROM error at start-up.
- Alarm code ELS: Low supply voltage.
- Alarm code EHS: High supply voltage.
- Warning code EL1: Electromagnetic noise detected in the power supply.
- Warning code Ht: High water temperature.
- Warning code Hc1, Hc2, Hc3, Hc4: Maintenance warning.

External alarm contact adjustment (see electrical diagram):


The UC unit has two terminals that provide a dry contact for a general alarm of
the chiller. In order to modify the behaviour of this contact it is necessary to
modify the value of the following parameter in the controller:
If P21=0 (default value): The alarm contact closes when there is an active alarm
If P21=1: The alarm contact opens when there is an active alarm.
When the On/Off switch is Off, the alarm contact remains open.

Use the following procedure to modify the P21 parameter:

- Press the Sel button for about 5 seconds. The display will show "- / -".
- Press Down until the display shows "- P -".
- Press Sel and the display will show "P21".
- Press Sel to display the current value of P21.
- Use the Up and Down buttons to set the value to 0 or to 1.
- Press Sel to confirm the new value. The display will show "P21".
- Press Prg three times to exit the modification procedure. The display will
show again the water tank temperature.

Glycol warning: This indicator is lit when the working conditions of the chiller
require ethylene glycol as antifreeze agent in the water circuit to avoid freezing.
Be sure that the water mixture has the suitable ethylene glycol concentration
when this is lit. Please check point 3.1 from this manual to adjust the ethylene
glycol concentration of the water mixture according to the ambient temperature
and antifreeze setpoint.

Pump On indicator: This remains lit while the pump is running.

Compressor On indicator: This remains lit while the compressor is running.

Compressor timer indicator: When “1” blinks it means that the controller is
delaying the start of the fridge compressor. When the compressor starts “1” will
stop blinking.

5 Maintenance
Units UC Mini are specially equipped with an integrated water filter inside the
unit’s housing at the water inlet. This filter is accessible through the left panel of
the chiller. Please, observe the following maintenance guidelines.

5.1 Basic Maintenance

Weekly:

Verify that the water temperature indicated on the controller is


approximately at the setpoint.

Verify that the pressure of the pump is the same as the nominal pressure
(Pnom) indicated in the characteristics plate.

Verify the water level in the tank.

Verify the state of the water filter, if the pressure drop exceeds 1,5 bar (22
psi) change the filter element.

Monthly:

With the unit disconnected (Main power switch Off), clean the condenser
with a blast of compressed air, from the inside towards the outside.

Clean the housing, internally and externally, eliminating the dust present
especially on the water pump rack.

Yearly:

Change the filter element and refill the tank with water of the required
quality (see annex 9), the suitable glycol concentration according to point
3.1 of this manual and the Refrifluid B additive supplied with the chiller (2
liters per each 100 liters of water tank volume).

Preventive maintenance warning (Hc1, Hc2, Hc3 or Hc4)

9.1 Water quality

In order to protect the water circuit of the Ultracool units, the water to
be cooled must have specific physical/chemical properties so that it is
not aggressive. If this water is outside any of the limits listed in the
table below, it can seriously damage some of the materials of the
Ultracool unit.

Parameter Limit values


pH 7–8
Total Hardness (TH) < 150 ppm
Conductivity 50 – 500 S/cm
NH3 < 2 ppm
2+ 3+
Total iron ions (Fe and Fe ) < 0.2 ppm
-
Chloride (Cl ) < 300 ppm
H2S < 0.05 ppm
Solid particles < 150 m
Ethylene glycol 0% (the units with the option stainless
steel pump accept as maximum 30%)

The Total Hardness is specified in ppm (mg/L) of Ca2CO3.

Please note that ultra-pure waters like deionised water can also be
harmful for some of the materials of the Ultracool units as they have a
conductivity below 50 S/cm.

LAUDA Ultracool S.L. will not accept any warranty for any damage
caused by water that is out of one or more of the above limits.

Do not use automotive antifreeze. Use lab grade ethylene glycol


only! Do not use an ethylene glycol concentration above 30%; this
would damage the water pump.

9.2 MSDS Refrifluid B

TECHNICAL SHEET

CHARACTERISTICS

Concentrated fluid specially designed for the treatment and conservation of the inside
of tanks and piping in cooling equipment or water recirculating chillers (closed circuit).
Its composition has been designed to accomplish two different objectives using a
single fluid, resistant to temperature changes:
- It contains an anticorrosive, that protects against all types of corrosion to the metal
components of the system, such as iron, aluminum, copper and welds of different
alloys.
- It includes protectors for refrigeration systems and industrial processes.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

REFRI-FLUID-B has to be used diluted into a proportion of 2 litres of REFRI-FLUID-B


in 100 litres of demineralised water.
If the machine has to work at temperatures below 0 ºC it is necessary to use ethylene
glycol as antifreeze agent.
With a 20% of ethylene glycol it has a large antifreeze capacity, preventing freezing at
temperatures as low as -7ºC. To achieve this, dilute 2 litres of REFRI-FLUID-B into a
proportion of 80 litres of demineralised water and 20 litres of ethylene glycol.

It is recommended to change the cooling water at least once per year.


For other temperatures or more information see the Operation Manual.
