  Ensuring proper water quality and temperature settings is crucial in the operation and maintenance of HVAC chiller systems. This not only guarantees efficient system performance but also extends the equipment's lifespan and reduces operational costs. This article provides an in-depth look into the standards for water quality and temperature settings in chiller system maintenance. 1.Water Quality Standards 1. 1 Total Hardness • Limit: Total hardness should not exceed 300mg/L. • Definition: Total hardness primarily refers to the concentration of calcium ions (Ca²⁺) and magnesium ions (Mg²⁺) in water. • Impacts of Exceeding the Limit: • Pipe Narrowing: High hardness causes mineral deposits on pipe walls, forming scale, which reduces pipe diameter, increases water resistance, decreases chilled water flow, and impairs cooling efficiency. • Increased Energy Consumption: Scale increases water resistance, requiring the chilled water pump to work harder, thus increasing energy consumption...
