Oil equalisation Contrary to semi hermetic compressors, suction gas in a hermetic compressor flows via the oil sump which makes it more difficult to maintain equal pressu-re in the sumps of parallel compressors. Since oil equalisation usually depends

on equal sump pressures this is a point of special attention. Danfoss Commer-cial Compressors has developed spe-cially adapted oil equalisation systems which ensure proper oil balancing between the compressors .

Design challenge Parallel systems have to ensure correct compressor operation, oil manage-

ment and reliability, which requires evaluation and testing.

GENERAL OVERVIEW

Benefi ts A parallel compressor installation re-fers to a system of interconnected compressors with a common suction line and common discharge line. The technique of mounting compressors in parallel, also called manifolding, has several benefits.

The main reason is reduced operating cost through greater control of capa-city and power consumption. This is achieved by staggering compressor switch-on sequences that allow the parallel system to match its power with the capacity needed.

A second reason for manifolding is improved part load efficiency. In a parallel installation the individual compressor(s) can be switched off

while the other compressor(s) keep operating at 100% load. Therefore the part load efficiency is very near the full load efficiency. Conventional fixed speed compressor unloading methods impose a serious penalty for part load efficiency, mainly at low load operation.

Third, working with parallel systems allows for standardisation of compres-sors. As an example, the capacity range 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 Tons can be cove-red with 5 individual compressors. But the same needs can be covered with only a 10 Tons and a 15 Tons model mounted in parallel, thus reducing the number of different compressor mo-del to be stocked from 5 to 2.

Scope These application guidelines describe the operating characteristics, design features and application requirements for the Performer® SH scroll compressor in air conditioning and heat pump ap-plications. The guidelines are not valid for refrigeration applications, which re-quire dedicated compressors and more specific installations precautions.

To ensure proper parallel installation and running conditions, the following

recommendations must be followed:

It is essential to respect all instructions given in these guidelines, the instruc-tion leaflet delivered with each com-pressor and the Selection & Application Guidelines for single compressors.

For additional system components related to specific application require-ments, the supplier recommendations must always be respected.

Interconnecting piping design

This is an area where the manufacturer can use its research and testing capa-bilities to the users benefits. All factory designed parallel systems pass the cri-tical 500 hours run test to qualify the piping configuration. This is not easily achieved with “field” erected systems

which are often affected by infancy problems such as pipe vibrations, noi-se or ultimately pipe ruptures.

Using factory designed and tested pa-rallel systems guarantees predictable reliability.

GENERAL OVERVIEW

Compressor sequence The operating sequence should be ar-ranged in such way that the running

time of the compressors is equalised as much as possible.

Cycling As a part of the design and develop-ment process at Danfoss Commercial Compressors it is verified that oil ma-nagement and piping resistance meet engineering specifications at any cy-cling frequency.

The system must be designed in a way that guarantees a minimum compres-sor running time of 2 minutes to pro-vide sufficient motor cooling after its start and a proper oil return. Note that the oil return may vary as it is a func-tion of the system design.

Cost eff ectiveness and serviceability

In today’s business climate, machine simplicity and low cost are main requi-rements. Performer® SH scroll tandem and trio configurations are compact designs but they ensure easy mainte-

nance and service because refrigera-tion circuit connections, oil change, compressor wiring and compressor replacement are taken into account from the earliest design stage.

Operating envelope The domain of application, the types of refrigerant are evaluated to meet

the requirements of the intended ap-plications.

Oil return There is one last challenge which falls under the responsibility of the system designers and end users : proper oil re-turn from the circuit.

Whatever the design of the parallel compressor system, good oil return from the circuit is prerequisite for the success of the equipment.

This is one of the most simple and cheapest ways of manifolding com-pressors. Compressor sumps and low pressure shells are interconnected. An interconnecting pipe, on the lower part of the compressor (below the oil level), ensures oil balancing. The suc-tion header design is critical, as it en-sures a pressure drop balancing and equal distribution of oil returning from the system when all compressors are running.

The success of such a system relies very much on the sizing of the pipe work, small differences in sump pres-sure can result in significant oil level variations.

This system is limited to three com-pressors in parallel, and needs perfect suction tube balancing.

OIL MANAGEMENT CONCEPTS

Static systems

As mentioned before, one of the chal-lenges of manifolding is oil manage-ment. To ensure suitable oil distribu-

tion, the static system as descibed hereafter is used for SH compressors.

SYSTEM DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS

Please refer to the Selection and Ap-plication Guidelines for Performer® SH scroll compressors reference FRCC.PC.007. for general system design re-commendations that are valid for sin-gle compressors as well as for parallel systems.

Typical system requirements and re-commendations for parallel installa-tions are listed below.

Thermostatic expansion valve

When the parallel installation is ser-ving a single evaporator system the dimensioning of the thermostatic ex-pansion valve (TXV) becomes critical and must be made in relation to both minimum and maximum capacity. This will ensure correct superheat control in all situations, with the minimum of 5K superheat at the compressor suc-tion. The superheat setting of the ex-pansion device should be sufficient to ensure proper superheat levels during low loading periods. A minimum of 5K stable superheat is required.In addition, the refrigerant charge should be sufficient to ensure proper

subcooling within the condenser so as to avoid the risk of flashing in the liquid line before the expansion de-vice. The expansion device should be sized to ensure proper control of the refrigerant flow into the evaporator. An oversized valve may result in erratic control. This consideration is especially important in manifolded units where low load conditions may require the frequent cycling of compressors. This can lead to liquid refrigerant entering the compressor if the expansion valve does not provide stable refrigerant su-perheat control under varying loads.

Pressure switch settings The pump down pressure switch must have a set point slightly higher than the lowest compressor safety pressure switch set point. The high-pressure sa-fety pressure switch shall stop all com-

pressors. Please refer to Performer® SH scroll compressors single application guidelines reference FRCC.PC.007. for recommended settings.

Essential piping designconsiderations

Proper piping practices should be em-ployed to ensure adequate oil return, even under minimum load conditions with special consideration given to the size and slope of the tubing coming from the evaporator. Tubing returns from the evaporator should be de-

signed so as to not trap oil and to pre-vent oil and refrigerant migration back to the compressor during off cycles. A double suction riser may be required for low load operation if suction gas velocity is not sufficient to ensure pro-per oil return.

Cycle rate limit The system must be designed in a way that guarantees a minimum compres-sor running time of 2 minutes so as to provide for sufficient motor cooling after start-up along with proper oil re-turn. Note that the oil return may vary since it depends upon system design.

There must be no more than 12 starts per hour; a number higher than 12

reduces the service life of the motor-compressor unit. If necessary, place an anti-short-cycle timer in the control circuit, connected as shown in the wiring diagram in the Performer® SH scroll compressors application guideli-nes. A three-minute (180-sec) timeout is recommended.

If the evaporator lies above the com-pressor, as is often the case in split or remote condenser systems, the addi-tion of a pump-down cycle is strongly recommended. If a pump-down cycle is omitted, the suction line should have a loop at the evaporator outlet to prevent refrigerant from draining into the compressor during off-cycles.

If the evaporator was situated below the compressors, the suction riser must be trapped so as to prevent li-quid refrigerant from collecting at the thermal bulb location.

When the condenser is mounted at a higher position than the compressors, a suitably sized “U”-shaped trap close to the compressors is necessary to pre-vent oil leaving the compressor from draining back to the discharge side of the compressors during off cycle.

The upper loop also helps avoid liquid refrigerant from draining back to the compressor when stopped.

Piping should be designed with ade-quate three-dimensional flexibility. It should not be in contact with the surrounding structure, unless a proper tubing mount has been installed. This protection proves necessary to avoid excess vibration, which can ultimately result in connection or tube failure due to fatigue or wear from abrasion. Aside from tubing and connection da-mage, excess vibration may be trans-mitted to the surrounding structure and generate an unacceptable noise level within that structure as well (for more information on noise and vibra-tion, see section "Sound and vibration management" in Performer® SH scroll compressors application guidelines).

Installation and service procedures for a parallel system are similar to basic system installations. The selection of additional system components for pa-rallel installations follows the basic sys-

tem common rules. Please refer to the Selection and Application Guidelines for Performer® SH scroll compressors (FRCC.PC.007) for detailed installation and service procedures.

Compressor mounting A common base frame, rigid enough to support the weight of the compres-sors, must be used for installation. The common frame must always be moun-ted on grommets to reduce transmis-sion of vibration to the floor. It is re-commended to install all control and safety devices on an independent fra-me. These devices should be connec-ted to the common frame using flexi-ble tubing.

Suction and discharge lines must have adequate three dimensional flexibi-lity. For parallel systems the simplest means of acquiring this is by the use of vibration absorbers.

For details see compressors mounting for each tandem/trio arrangement.

Handling Danfoss Commercial Compressors re-commends using the lift and handling devices, as shown in picture beside, and that the following procedure be used to prevent damage.

Two lift rings are provided on each compressor. Use all four rings. Maximum loads authorized per sling and for the hoist hook must not be lower than the weight of the assem-bly.

The minimum spreader bar length must be at least equal to the centre distance between the two compres-sors to prevent bending the frame. When lifting, use a spreader block between the compressors to prevent any unit frame damage. When the tandem unit is already mounted into an installation, never

lift the complete installation by using the lift rings on the compressors.

Tandem and trio piping design

For each tandem and trio configuration specific outline drawings are available as indicated on the following pages. These drawings must always be respected.

No changes shall be made to the in-dicated tubing diameter and fitting types.

The oil equalisation line shall be made of copper tube and assembled in such a way that it does not extend above the connection height and must be horizontal so as not to trap oil.

Wiring and rotation direction

All compressors in a tandem and trio unit must be electrically wired indivi-dually.Compressors should run with the cor-rect rotation direction. This can be

achieved by having the correct phase sequence on each compressor motor terminal (L1-T1, L2-T2, L3-T3).

INSTALLATION & SERVICE

Oil level The oil must be checked before com-missioning (1/2 to full of the oil sight glass). Check the oil level again after a minimum of 2 hours operation at no-minal conditions. In most installations the initial compressor oil charge will be sufficient. In installations with line runs exceeding 20 m or with many oil traps, additional oil may be required. Normally the quantity of oil added should be no more than 2% of the to-tal refrigerant charge (this percentage does not take into account oil contai-ned in accessories such as suction ac-

cumulators, liquid receiver, or oil traps).If this amount has already been added and the oil level in the compressors keeps decreasing, the oil return in the installation is insufficient. A piping de-sign checking is required.

During operation, the oil level in the sight glass of the compressors may fluctuate. The oil level can be checked directly after the system has stopped. In this case the level must be at about 1/3 minimum in the oil sight glass.

Failure analysis When one compressor in a parallel system fails, the chance of foreign par-ticles entering other compressors is greatly increased. Therefore a failure

analysis must be done quickly to insu-re further proper running conditions for the overall installation (i.e. : oil ana-lysis).

Oil equalisation connection

Danfoss Commercial Compressors has developed specially adapted oil equali-sation systems which ensure proper oil balancing between the compressors.Hence, Performer® SH scroll compressors are equipped with rotolock connections:

SH090 to 184: 1" 3/4 rotolock connec-tion allowing use of 1”3/4 - 7/8" or 1"3/4 - 1"1/8.

SH180 to 380: 2"1/4 rotolock connec-tion allowing the use of 2"1/4 - 1"3/8 (tandem) or 2"1/4 - 1"5/8 sleeve (trio).

Operation principle SH 182 to SH 760 tandems use the static system to balance the oil level between the compressors. Each of the compressors may run alone to provide proper capacity for part load opera-tion. The system has been designed

to ensure a precise pressure balancing between the sumps, facilitating the oil equalisation by gravity. The discharge line is shown with two tees, to indicate that both left and right side discharge header are possible.

Suction washer Due to the difference of capacities of the compressors, it is essential to equalise the pressure of the sump. But, this oil equalisation is also function of the configuration of the suction pipe.For tandem SH304:Suction from left or right, add a restrictor (copper color) diameter 23 mm at the suction of the compressor SH 120.For tandem SH324:Suction from left or right, add a restrictor (black color) diameter 24 mm at the suction of the compressor SH 140.For tandem SH345:Suction from left or right, add a restrictor (white color) diameter 26 mm at the suction of the compressor SH 161.

Oil equalisation connection

The level of oil naturally balances by a pipe of 1"1/8.

The kit 7777052 includes 1”3/4 - 1"1/8 adaptator sleeves & Teflon seals to connect the 1"1/8 equalisation pipe on 1”3/4 oil connectors.

TRIO UNITS SH550 TO 1140

Operation principle SH550 to SH1140 trio use the static sys-tem to balance the oil level between the compressors. Each of the compres-sors may run alone to provide proper capacity for part load operation. The system has been designed to ensure

a precise pressure balancing between the sumps, facilitating the oil equali-sation by gravity. The discharge line is shown with three tees, to indicate that both left and right side discharge hea-der are possible.
