UNITS WITH FANS WITH AVAILABLE PRESSURE FOR INDOOR INSTALLATION
(OPTION 12 - STATIC HIGH PRESSURE FAN)

This option applies to 30RBP 160-520 units installed inside Circuit A Circuit B
the building in a plant room. 30RBP Nominal/maximum air Nominal/maximum air
flow (l/s) flow (l/s)
For this type of installation, the hot or cold air emerging from
160 5200 / 6240 10400 / 12480
the air-cooled condensers is evacuated from the building by 180-230 10400 / 12480 10400 / 12480
the fans by means of a ducting system, which causes pressure 240-270 10400 / 12480 15600 / 18720
drops in the air circuit. 310-330 15600 / 18720 15600 / 18720
Therefore, this option features more powerful fan motors than 380 15600 / 18720 20800 / 24960
those fitted to standard units. 430-520 20800 / 24960 20800 / 24960

For each installation, the duct pressure drops differ, depending


on the duct length, the duct section and the direction changes.

30RBP units with option 12 are designed to operate with air


discharge ducts with a maximum pressure drop of 200 Pa
(units are equipped with variable-speed fans with a maximum
speed of 19 r/s, instead of 15.8 r/s for standard units).

Use of variable speed up to 19 r/s can overcome the pressure


drop in the ducts while maintaining an optimised air flow per
circuit. All fans in the same circuit, operating at the same time,
have the same speed.

The fan power input for fans with a speed of 19 r/s is increased
compared to that of standard fans with a speed of 15.8 r/s (the
multiplier coefficient is the same as the cube of the speed ratio,
i.e. x 1.72).

The full-load or part-load speed is controlled by a patented


algorithm that permanently optimises the condensing
temperature to ensure the best unit energy efficiency (EER)
whatever the operating conditions and pressure drop of the
1 Fan motor access hatches (700 x 700 mm hatch) for each single
system ductwork. and dual duct

If necessary for a specific installation, the maximum fan speed


of 30RBP unit can be fixed between 13.3 and 19 r/s, using the
Service Configuration menu. Consult the 30RBM/RBP Control
manual for this modification.

The performance levels (capacity, efficiency) depend on the


speed of the fans, then on the duct pressure drop:
--Between 0 and 100 Pa, the unit performance is only
slightly affected
--Between 100 and 200 Pa, the unit performance may vary
considerably, depending on the operating conditions
(outdoor air temperature and water conditions).
The noise level inside of the ductwork and radiated around the
unit is also related to the pressure drop.
Please refer to the Carrier electronic catalogue to evaluate the
estimated impact of the ducting system on the operating
conditions of the 30RBP unit.

HYDRAULIC MODULE (OPTION 116)
The new generation of Carrier hydraulic module minimises Hydraulic module
installation time. The heat pump is factory-equipped with the
main components for the hydraulic system: Water pump,
electronic flow switch, Victaulic screen filter, pressure sensors,
water temperature sensors, pressures taps (2), relief valve,
drain valve, air vent, water purge, optional hydraulic module
heater and optional expansion tank.

The pressure transducers allow the control to:


--Display the available pressure at the unit outlet and the
static system pressure
--Calculate the instantaneous flow rate, using an algorithm
that integrates the unit characteristics
-- Integrate the system and water pump protection devices
(lack of water, water pressure, water flow rate, etc.).
On units fitted with a Greenspeed® variable-speed pump, the
display enables users to:
--Adjust the required pump speed
--Adjust the required available pressure at the unit outlet
and the static system pressure to the actual needs of the
customer; this saves energy and dispenses with the need
for a water flow control valve (used to create artificial
pressure drops that waste energy).

Advantages of the DX free cooling system


■■ Operation without glycol
The AquaSnap DX free cooling chiller operates on pure water, unlike traditional hydraulic free cooling systems which operate
on brine. An (optional) electric heater provides frost protection for the evaporator down to temperatures of -20°C.

■■ Low water pressure drops


The AquaSnap DX free cooling liquid chiller does not feature either a three-way valve or a free cooling coil connected in
series to the evaporator. The AquaSnap free cooling chiller has the water pressure drops as a standard chiller.

■■ Weight increase and dimensions


--The DX free cooling option has little impact on the weight of the liquid chiller.
--The AquaSnap free cooling has the same dimensions as a standard chiller.

■■ High energy efficiency


--In free cooling mode, only the fans and cooling micro-pump are in operation. For example, with an air/water delta of
10 K, the energy efficiency ratio (EER) of the chiller is 15 (kW/kW).
--In mechanical cooling mode, the use of brine does not adversely affect the thermal performance and energy efficiency
of the chiller.
--As the pressure drops in the hydraulic circuit are low, the water pumps are more energy efficient.

Depending on the requirements of the user, the AquaSnap DX free cooling is available with 2 performance levels
--118A DX free-cooling on 2 circuits
--118B DX free-cooling on 1 circuit

SHELL AND TUBE WATER TYPE HEAT EXCHANGER (OPTION 280)

The units equipped with this option have a direct expansion shell and tube evaporator (the refrigerant is evaporated inside a
copper tube bundle, the water circulates inside the shell and tube exchanger), instead of the brazed-plate heat exchanger.

Operating range
The operating range for the unit with option 280 is similar to that of the standard unit for most configurations.

However, in combination with options 5B and 6B, the following limits must be respected:
--option 5B (medium-temperature brine solution), the shell and tube exchanger water outlet temperature is limited to 0°C
(same as the brazed-plate heat exchanger).
-- option 6B (low-temperature brine solution), the shell and tube exchanger water outlet temperature is limited to -12°C

When the compressor capacity is equal to zero, the pump speed


can be automatically reduced to a second setpoint (adjustable
