1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Description
Aggrekos air-conditioning units are a packaged system that is specifically designed forhigh ambient conditions with energy conservation and reliability of operation being amajor design consideration.
These units are of the air-cooled type and have a maximum designed temperature of43deg C.
1.2 Equipment
1.2.1 Compressor
The compressors in the Aggreko range of ACs are hermetically sealed scroll type units
that utilise R22 refrigerant. The compressors come pre-filled from the factory with the
following types of oil, depending on the type;
a. SM Series with mineral oil (ref 160P)
b. SZ Series with polyester oil (ref 160SZ)
c. SY Series with polyester oil (ref 320SZ).
These lubricants are not to be mixed with one another.
The compressor in an air-conditioning/refrigeration system maintains the pressure drop
between the High pressure side and Low Pressure side along with the RefrigeratedMeasuring Device (or Thermal Expansion Device).
The compressor also raises the temperature of the refrigerant from the evaporator
(cooling coil) so the absorbed heat can be removed by ambient conditions (especially air-
cooled) by passing over the condenser coil.
NOTE:Avoid contact with the discharge line from the compressors, as the copper linescan become very hot.

1.2.2 Condenser
The condensers are manufactured utilising copper tubing along with aluminium fins,
which provide the best method of heat transfer.
The purpose of the condenser is to reject the absorbed heat from the evaporator and the
added heat from the pressure and temperature increase from the compressor.
The high temperature high pressure superheated vapour (refrigerant) discharges from thecompressor enters the condenser, where it is cooled and changes state from a vapour to a
medium temperature high pressure liquid. The temperature that usually exists from the
discharge side of the compressor is around 45 55degC.
From here the MTHPL is piped to the Refrigerated Measuring Device (RMD).
1.2.3 RMD or Thermal Expansion Valve (TxV)
This valve is attached into the liquid refrigerant line as near as possible to the inlet to the
evaporator and controls the rate at which the liquid is released into the evaporator.
It senses the temperature of the refrigerant gas leaving the evaporator, if this temperatureis high it indicates that heat absorption is high and the valve opens wider to allow more
refrigerant into the evaporator and absorb more heat.
However, if the sensed temperature is low, the valve reduces the refrigerant flow to the
evaporator because there is little heat to be absorbed.

1.2.4 Evaporator
The evaporator is responsible for the transfer of the heat from the application air to the
refrigerant in order to remove it from the application being cooled.
This is achieved when the refrigerant, as a liquid, is released into the evaporator and
absorbs heat as it changes from a liquid into a gas. The evaporator may be fitted with a
system to automatically defrost (de-ice) the coil when operating at temperatures below4oC.
1.2 Applications
The Aggreko dehumidifiers can be used in various applications as shown:

1. AIR CONDITIONER CONTROLLERThis document outlines the customised software installed on aggreko air conditioners. The digitalcontroller allows setup for various climates and applications via preset software parameters. Thecontrol of the indoor fan Variable Frequency Drive allows for automatic control of air flow to provideexact air off temperatures and allow the unit to vary indoor fan speed to avoid HP LP faults inextreme conditions.
Four preset modes of operation are available.
1) Heating and Cooling to a preset return air temperature. For example controlling a buildingtemperature to 22 degC where return air is ducted back to the unit.
2) Heating the air to a preset temperature. Does not require return air, May be used for generalheating / drying applications where an air off temperature of no more than 45 degC is required.Constant preset fan speed unless LP point is approached upon which fan speed will be increasedby a maximum of 15% of full speed.
3) Cooling the air to a preset temperature. Does not require return air. May be used for generalcooling applications where an air off temperature of no less than 8 degC is required. Constantpreset fan speed unless HP point is approached upon which fan speed will be dropped inincrements to a minimum (minimum fan speed 30% of full speed).
4) Cooling the air to a preset temperature. Does not require return air. May be used for specific
cooling / dehumidification applications where an air off temperature of no less than 8 deg C isrequired. Fan speed will vary to deliver specified temperature.
Other features include the ability to schedule operation, remote control and monitor operation andmaintenance history.

3 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE (IOM)
3.1 Introduction
Installation of the Air-conditioners is of utmost importance. The operating life of theseunits will be greatly determined on how the equipment is positioned.
The following section will outline the correct procedures for installation of Aggrekos
air-conditioners.
3.2 Installation
The unit must be installed on a solid, level ground/mounting pad which also ensures
service access.
No items should be placed on-top of the condenser fans for the discharge of rejected air
from the condenser. If items are placed in front of the inlet or on top as previously
mentioned, a safety shutdown of the equipment will occur (High Condensing Pressure).
An adequate drain-line trap must be provided outside the inside coil for condensate run-
off. The drain pipe should be installed with a continuous downward grade away from the
unit. The gradient should not be less than 1:50.
Outdoor units operating on the reverse cycle will release water from the outdoor coilduring defrost. Where appropriate, water should be drained to waste
3.3 Commissioning and Testing
Prior to commissioning any type of Air-conditioning unit, filters should be fitted (where
applicable).
Align belt drive fan and motor pulleys with a straight edge. For variable speed pulleys,
ensure that the centre lines of both pulleys are in line and parallel to fan casing. Adequatespace should be left for the ability to service the equipment.
3.3.1 Cooling mode
When in cooling mode, the following steps should be followed;
a. Switch the unit on in cooling mode with the thermostat set to minimumtemperature set point.
b. Measure the compressor suction pressure and convert to a compressor saturatedsuction temperature using the R22 refrigerant pressure/temperature chart.
c. Measure the suction line temperature approximately 100mm before thecompressor.
d. Calculate the superheat = Suction line temperature Compressor Saturated SuctionTemperature.
e. Measure the outdoor ambient air temperature.
f. Measure the indoor return and supply air dry bulb and wet bulb temperatures, bothbefore and after the indoor coil.

g. Measure the indoor air quantity ensuring it falls within the fan limits.
h. Allow system pressure to stabilise for a minimum of 20 minutes.
i. Measure and record all operating pressures, motor currents and temperatures as
noted for start up.j. Adjust fan speed tapping or pulley to suit the static pressure and air quantity
requirements.
3.3.2 Hot Gas Injection
The injection valve, which is operated from suction pressure, will modulate and inject hot
gas into the indoor coil to maintain a minimum suction pressure of 400kPa. The systemis protected by a suction temperature sensor which will close the gas injection solenoid
valve if the temperature exceeds 12deg C.
3.3.3 Outdoor Fan Speed Control
The controller, which has a 3 bar operating band, starts to decrease the motor speed whenthe pressure falls below 16 bar. The motor will continue to operate on low speed when the
pressure falls below 13 bar.
3.4 Operation
The operation of the Aggreko Air conditioners is best illustrated in the following
diagram.
The sequence of operation includes the ventilation, cooling, heating, defrost and fault
lockout

3.4.1 Ventilation
Set the thermostat for continuous fan operation. The indoor fan will start and runcontinuously.
3.4.2 Cooling
On a call for cooling, the lead compressor and outdoor fan will start. The lag compressor
and outdoor fan will start on further cooling demand and cycle the unit in response to the
thermostat to maintain desired room conditions.
Short cycle protection, built into the electronic controller prevents the compressors fromrestarting for at least 5 minutes after they have been switched off. The electronic
controller provides a 5 second time delay before starting the compressor and outdoor fan
on both stages; 5 minutes initial time delay for stage 1 compressor at initial start of thesystem and a 1 minute time delay between stages during operation.
If indoor fan operation mode auto is selected there is a 10 second time delay betweenlead compressor and indoor fan activation.

3.4.3 Heating
The reversing valves are energised with the compressor and outdoor fans. Sequence of
operation is as described for cooling.
3.4.4 Defrost
The defrost control is independent reverse cycle. It is activated when the temperature of
the outdoor coil sensor falls below -3 deg C, provided that the accumulated compressorrun time exceeds 30 minutes (factory set) or 5 minutes at initial start of the system.
The defrost cycle is terminated when the coil is temperature sensor exceeds 10degC or
when the defrost time exceeds 10 minutes. Typical defrost time is usually 2 to 4 minutes.
When defrost is initiated, the stage which required defrost de-energises the reversing
valve and outdoor fan, whilst the other stage continues to operate or is forced to operate 1minute before defrost is initiated to provide heating. The indoor fan continues to operate
during defrost. The LP switch is bypassed during defrost and for a further 2.5 minutesafter the termination of defrost. When defrost is terminated, the second stage can then
defrost if required. When defrost/s is pending or in progress the thermostat contacts areoverridden until defrost/s has been completed.
3.4.5 Fault Lockout
When any of the operating faults are exceeded, the safety limits trip and disables the
compressor and outdoor fan of the relevant stage of the unit.
The compressor and the outdoor fan will remain off after the limit switches re-close untilthe Stage 1 input terminal is de-energised and energised via the thermostat or on/off
switch. The control is independent. If one stage is in fault, the other stage will continue
to respond to the thermostat,
If the indoor fan overload trips, the system is locked out until the overload resets and the
fan input terminal is de-energised and energised via thermostat or on/off switch.
Single-phase fan motors have internal overloads, which reset automatically. The defrost
sensor open circuit will lock out the relevant stage.
3.5 Decommissioning
3.6 Maintenance
To ensure continued high performance and minimisation of premature equipment failure,
periodic maintenance must be performed on the air-conditioning equipment. The unit
should be inspected at least once a year by a QUALIFIED refrigeration technician.
The minimum maintenance requirements for this equipment are as follows;
