WATER CONNECTIONS (DUAL K0.-1.375$01.125) DETAIL A DETAIL B SCALE 1:12 SCALE 1:12 9 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine TXV Stuck Open: • Head pressure will be slightly to moderately low; • Suction pressure will be slightly high to very high; • Amperage (not a reliable indicator of this condition); • Liquid Sub-Cooling wM be lower than normal; • Superheat will be minimal or nonexistent; • Suction line,and possibly a large portion of compressor,will be very cold and possibly"sweating". Explanation:Refrigerant is flowing through the system too quickly;enough heat cannot be added in the evaporator to boil off all the liquid refrigerant. The main effect is to flood the suction line and compressor with liquid refrigerant. The primary indicator of this condition is little or no suction line superheat. Also,as the TXV is not holding back the required amount of refrigerant,there may be flash gas(high-pressure vapor)present in the liquid line;this is indicated by reduced liquid sub-cooling. Insufficient Condenser Water Flow: • Head pressure will moderately high to very high; • Suction pressure,my be normal to slightly high; • Amperage will be higher than normal; •Liquid Sub-Cooling will be absent;the liquid line will be very warm or even hot to touch. When combined with high condenser water AT(see next bullet item),this condition is a prime indicator of insufficient condenser water flow; • Condenser entering leaving water temperature difference(water AT)will be higher than normal...This condition is a prime indicator of insufficient condenser water flow; • Superheat will be high-normal to high. Explanation:Heat is not being removed in the condenser in quantities sufficient to produce appreciable amounts of liquid refrigerant. With no liquid seal occurring in the condenser,the liquid line—in essence— becomes an extended discharge line. Keys to diagnosis: very warm to hot liquid line,and a high condenser water Delta-T. INSTALLATION Placement of Heater IndoorInstallation Every indoor installation is unique,therefore,there are no specific guidelines for this type of installation. For assistance,please contact AquaCal's Engineering or Technical department at(800)786-7751;they will assist you with your specific needs. Outdoor Installation Service and Operational Clearances: ♦ Refer to recommended clearance drawings following this.section. Allow 24"clearance between the heat collection surfaces and walls,fences,shrubs,or other objects.The heat pump requires large volumes of air moving over the heat collector. ♦ Allow 5 feet of vertical clearance between the top of the heat pump and any roof overhang or other obstruction.This clearance prevents cold discharge air from recirculating back into the evaporator coils(recirculation would reduce the overall performance of the heat Pump). ♦ Provide at least 30"open area in front of the main access panel.The electrical panel will need to 1 be accessed during installation and service,so avoid any plumbing obstructions that will restrict F easy access. . 14 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Code Required Clearances: ♦ In addition to the previously stated clearance requirements,follow all applicable local,state,and national requirements relative to spacing from other objects or equipment. 1)rpical Installation Clearances Overhang y � 24-Inches Rain runoff A eat) nntstbe WiH'g'tter� directed away �x; '-' 5 R minim clea�re, 24-Inches overhead 24-Inches (Side) (Side) 30P minimum %' V Q clearance,front 2 ft.minimmn clearance,rear 30-Inches (No scale) Front,Rear,and Overhead Front,Side and Rear Irrigation,Rainwater Runoff,and Landscape Features Place the heat pump away from rain runoff from the roof. A gutter or rain shield may be required on the roof edge above the heat pump. Relocate or adjust irrigation to avoid water spray directly onto the heat pump. Do not locate plant shrubs or bushes directly adjacent to heat pumps.Doing so will prevent proper air circulation into the unit,and may inhibit access to the heater when service is needed.Consult drawings above for proper clearances. Equipment Pad Requirements The equipment pad should be constructed to provide-adequate drainage and support to the base of the heat pump (see Table below).The pad should be essentially level with just enough pitch to drain condensate and any other water away from the heater. t _ �S ` T135 36"X 42" T115 36"X 4T' T65 36"X 42" Anchoring Heater to Pad Follow all relevant local,state,or national requirements regarding wind load anchoring(use huricane anchoring kit,part#STK0010). As necessary,contactAquaCal Technical Support,800-786-7751,for assistance in determining best method of compliance. 15 I Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engoine Plumbing Requirements Overview: When planning plumbing system layout,reference the plumbing schematics following this section as a guide to the sequence of equipment,valves,fittings,etc. The plumbing configurations for typical installations are diagrammed. In operation,it is imperative the heat pump receive water flow within the minimum-t►+aximumranges specified for the particular heat pump.Should the system installation under consideration notclosely match any of the schematics, contact AquaCal Technical Support for advice and guidance:(800)786-7751. Parts and Materials: Industry technology changes much too rapidly for AquaCal to specify, with exactness, any items outside and beyond the heat pump. What is specified is that the heat pump must be installed in accordance with all applicable local, state,or national codes&standards. Connection to Heat Pump: All TropiCal heat pumps come equipped with 2"PVC,plumbing unions. Connection to site plumbing is made via PVC solvent cement to the female slip socket of the plumbing unions. Ability to Winterize: In regions where hard winters are typical,the unions mentioned above allow for easy disconnection/reconnecting of the heater from the plumbing system. Caution: do not defeat the function of the unions—use no glue on the threaded portion of the unions. Maximum Operating Pressure: 50 PSI Minimum/Maximum Water Flow Rates: All Tropical models are designed to operate successfully between flow rates of 20 to 70 gallons-per-minute- (GPM. allons-per-minute(GPM). Design the plumbing system to maintain at least 20 GPM flow through the heater;the heatpump will not operate correctly,nor reliably,with less than 20 GPM of water flow supplied. If water flow rates through the heater will exceed 70 GPM,'a spring-check bypass valve will be required;generally speaking,most residential pools and spas will not require a bypass unless a pump of 2 HP or larger is used(for bypass valve details,see information and plumbing schematic,following). External Bypass Check Valve Requirement For installations where flow rates exceed 70 gpm an additional spring bypass check valve must be installed. NOTE: Use of the wrong size check valve may compromise the heat pump's efficiency,reliability,and may void the factory warranty.For models T135,T115&T65,a 51b.Spring check valve is required.
