Vertical runs are based on a total rise of 30 equivalent
feet. For longer rises, individual calculations should be
made. Sizes assume the use of single risers; double
rises may be necessary.
NOTE
Consult the Copeland applications data guide
for more detailed information regarding refriger-
ant line traps and line sizing.
2.6.1.2.2 Remote Air Cooled Condensing Units
(AHU Models)
When installing remote condensing units above the
evaporator, the suction line should be p-trapped at the
evaporator.
NOTE
Do not exceed 15 feet of vertical distance when
installing the condensing unit below the evapo-
rator.
When installing remote condensing units below the
evaporator, the suction line should be trapped with an
inverted trap the height of the evaporator coil. This
prevents migration of liquid refrigerant to the compres-
sor during off cycles.
All suction lines must be insulated to prevent conden-
sation from forming on the pipes. Refer to provided
pipe size charts for recommended pipe sizing.
2.6.2 Chilled Water, Water/Glycol and Hot
Water Reheat Piping
The piping connections for water/glycol, chilled water
and systems with hot water reheat are sweat connec-
tions. Pipe sizes may not necessarily be the same as
the unit connection. Piping should be sized to match
the system pressure drop and pump capacity (if
applicable) and may require reducing fittings to match
the connection size on the air conditioner. The recom-
mended ethylene glycol solution ratio is 40% glycol to
60% water. (SATS recommends Dowtherm SR1
manufactured by Dow Chemical Co.) Glycol-cooled
systems with a low entering fluid temperature and all
chilled water systems should have insulated piping.
WARNING
Glycol is hazardous and the manufacturer’s
MSDS should be consulted.
CAUTION
When installing and filling the water/glycol,
chilled water and optional hot water reheat
loop, all air must be bled from the piping
system.
CAUTION
The piping system must be flushed prior to op-
erating the system. Failure to do so will result
in equipment problems.
A strainer should be included in the water/glycol,
chilled water and optional hot water reheat line. Once
the system is operational, the fluid runs through the
strainer where any foreign objects are removed. The
strainer screen should be cleaned periodically.
