How to debug a screw chiller - oumalchiller.com

 An important step in the commissioning of screw chillers and scroll chillers is the charging of refrigerant. Generally, Oumal screw chillers are filled with the specified type of refrigerant before leaving the factory. After the chiller arrives at the chiller installation site, first check whether the screw chiller is damaged during transportation, check the high and low pressure gauges, and confirm whether the chiller is in good condition. If it is found that the refrigerant is insufficient or leaking, you need to find out the leak place and fix it, and then add the specified type of refrigerant according to the product instructions. For some screw chillers, the refrigerant needs to be emptied for transportation due to transportation problems. Therefore, after the machine arrives at the installation site, the refrigerant needs to be added again, and the appropriate refrigerant must be added according to the manufacturer's requirements. Before adding refrigerant, the air in the screw chiller system should be evacuated before adding refrigerant.


In the debugging process of the screw chiller, the following issues need to be paid attention to the following points: .

1. Check whether the valves in the refrigeration system are in normal opening state, especially the exhaust shut-off valve, do not close it.

2. Open the cooling valve of the condenser and the cold water valve of the evaporator, and the flow of chilled water and cooling water should meet the requirements of the manufacturer.

3. Before starting, observe whether the power supply voltage of the unit is normal.

4. Start the unit according to the installation instructions provided by the screw chiller manufacturer,

5. The safety protection installed in the refrigeration system should be used correctly, such as high and low pressure protection devices, water flow switches for chilled water and cooling water, safety valves and other components. If damaged, they should be replaced in time.

6. If an alarm occurs in the screw chiller, it should be stopped immediately for inspection. If it cannot be solved, contact the chiller manufacturer in time.


If you have purchased an Oumal screw chiller and do not know how to debug it, please contact your salesperson directly to guide the installation online.

Avoid Downtime, Cut Costs: Smart Maintenance for Smarter Chillers

  Screw water-cooled chillers   typically operate around 3,000 hours per year, depending on China's climate and geographical conditions. Regular and scientific maintenance is crucial to ensure long-term, reliable operation, extend the lifespan, and reduce operating costs. Maintenance and Upkeep Preventive maintenance during operation and inspection involves creating annual and monthly maintenance plans based on actual operating conditions. Shutdown Procedures In winter, clean and dry the unit. Open the drain valve to empty the  shell-and-tube heat exchanger  to avoid freezing. The shutdown sequence is: chiller off - cooling tower fan off - cooling water pump off - chilled water pump off. Special attention to anti-freezing: 1. Drain the evaporator and condenser if the unit is outdoors below 0°C during standby. 2. Interlock the water flow switch with the unit to prevent freezing when the chilled water flow switch malfunctions. 3. Ensure water in the evaporator is flowi...

What Makes High-Temperature Heat Pump Units Essential for Modern Energy Use

  High-temperature heat pump units   have become essential to modern energy utilization technologies, finding widespread applications across various industries such as industrial, agricultural, and commercial sectors. These units' unique performance and advantages are key in driving energy transitions and achieving energy conservation and emission reductions. This blog will explore the working principles, application areas, technical features, and future trends of high-temperature heat pump units. How Do High-Temperature Heat Pump Units Work? High-temperature heat pump units operate based on the principle of the reverse Carnot cycle. They use a small amount of electrical or thermal energy to absorb heat from a low-temperature source and transfer it to a high-temperature source. The process involves four key stages: evaporation, compression, condensation, and expansion. During evaporation, the refrigerant absorbs heat from the low-temperature source and turns into a low-pressur...

What Are the Key Requirements for Flooded-Type Heat Exchangers in Air Suspension Chillers

  Air suspension chillers   are crucial in many industrial and commercial applications, and the flooded-type heat exchanger is one of the most important components of these systems. Understanding the requirements of the heat exchanger is essential to ensuring the air suspension units operate efficiently and remain stable. A flooded-type heat exchanger works by transferring heat between two fluids with different temperatures. In air suspension chillers, it helps regulate temperature, optimize energy use, and improve overall performance. For instance, it can transfer heat from high-temperature gases to low-temperature liquids, or vice versa. 1. Material Requirements 1.1 Corrosion Resistance In many industrial environments, fluids can be corrosive. For example, they may come into contact with acidic or alkaline substances. To withstand these conditions, the heat exchanger’s tubes and casing need to be made from corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel. Stainless ste...
