Safety Precautions
NOTE: It is required to read the Safety precautions in detail before operation. The
precautions listed below are very important for safety, please follow all safety
precautions.
General
Make sure that the ground wire in the building is securely connected to earth.
Wiring tasks should be carried out by qualified electricians only, in addition, they should check
the safety conditions of power utilization, for example, verify that the line capacity is adequate,
and the power cable isn’t damaged.
Users must not install, repair or relocate the unit. Improper procedures might lead to accidents
e.g. personal injury caused by fire, electrical shock or unit's falling off its base, and water leaking
into the machine. Please contact a professional service department if problems arise.
The unit shall not be installed at a spot with the potential hazard of leaking flammable gas. If
gas is leaking near the machine, there might be the risk of explosion.
Make sure that the foundation of the unit is stable. If the foundation is unstable, the outdoor
unit may come loose from its base and cause injury.
Make sure that the GFCI installed at the service panel is working properly to avoid shock or
fires.
If any abnormity occurs in the unit (such as a burning smell is noticed inside the unit), cut off
the power supply immediately, and contact a professional service department.
Please observe the follow items when cleaning the unit. Before cleaning, shut off the electric
supply of the unit first to avoid injuries caused by the fan operation.
Do not rinse the unit with water because the rinsed unit may cause electric shock.
Make sure to shut off the electric supply before maintaining the unit.
Please do not insert fingers or sticks into air outlet or air inlet.
Transporting and storage
The machine must be transported and stored vertically.

Hydronic Piping and Design Guide
Installation Methods Heating and Cooling (Heating Shown)
Note: Primary Secondary Piping is NOT supported on this chiller.
A buffer tank must be used for floor heating.

1. Minimum pipe size should be no less than 1”, CPVC or Oxygen Barrier PEX, reverse return piping is
preferable to eliminate balancing valves or pressure regulators. The installer should calculate the
pipe and fitting resistance to determine the head pressure. See the examples on the following pages,
maximum water flow for the CX34 is 6 gpm, design flow is 4.8 gpm. If necessary, a second PWM
pump may be added to the loop and controlled by the CX34. The second water pump connections
are always in parallel with the internal pump.
2. The loop example above is designed with wild coils. Water flows through the coil at all times, if there
is a call for heating or cooling the FCU controls will turn the fan on.
3. An air discharge valve should be installed at the top of the circulation system if possible for easy air
discharge. As an alternative an automatic/manual air vent can be used inline before the pumps.
4. Always install a water filter or wye strainer on the supply pipe to the chiller to prevent blockage of
the heat exchanger.
Piping Examples: Stacked Chillers
Chillers piped in parallel

A volume expander tank should be used when the loop volume is less than 5 gallons to keep the compressor
from cycling.
Using a Buffer Tank
Primary / secondary piping is not supported, when connecting to a floor heating loop always use a buffer
tank. Buffer tanks are generally used only with floor heating.
The pump in the buffer tank drawing is controlled by the customer’s floor loop controls. A 20-50 gallon
buffer tank is used generally for best performance. A G3 seasonal valve may be used to isolate the tank in
cooling mode.

Head Calculation Example:
To calculate the head pressure for the correct water flow, the pipe length must be measured and all fittings
counted. It is advisable to use flexible red oxygen barrier PEX piping to avoid as many elbows as possible. All
fittings have an equivalent length of pipe already calculated, available on the next page under PEX Fittings
Pressure Drops. Add up the equivalent length of pipe for the fittings, 13.8’ + 11.7’ =25.5’. Then, add this to
the actual pipe, 25.5’+115” = 140.5’ of 1” pipe. Once you know the total length of pipe, use a (1” PEX 10%
Glycol, feet of head per 100 feet of tubing chart), to get the head for 1’ of pipe, at 40°F and 4.76 GPM. This
comes to (.0500) feet of head per foot. 140.5 x .0500=7.02 ft. of head. Add up all head calculations, 7.02 +
8.35 + 4.01 = 19.38 ft. of head. Next we will look at the Wilo Pump curve on page 13. Maximum head at 4.76
GPM is 23.67 ft.
If using the CX30SE (Free Cooling option) the CX30SE’s pressure drop is 4.5 PSI when active.

Notes:
The example loop above has a volume of 4.5 gallons. The internal thermal expansion tank is 2 liters or .52
Gallons. The volume of the CX34 is 4.5 liters. An additional thermal expansion tank may be required for
larger loops. There are many thermal expansion calculators on the internet, the following is an example.
http://westank.com/calculator/
Minimum loop pressure is 14.5 psi, maximum pressure is 43.5 psi, and ideal pressure is 29 psi. The Lowest
temperature is 44°F, the highest temperature is 131°F, the Initial pressure is 14.5 psi, and the final pressure
is 29 psi.
A microbubble air separator should be installed in the loop preferably in the higher part of the loop to
remove any air in the circulation loop.
Always install a water filter or wye strainer on the supply pipe to the chiller to prevent blockage of the heat
exchanger.
