CAT 607 - Direct Drive Fluid Coolers

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Daikin Applied's fluid coolers are designed for outdoor use, constructed from heavy gauge galvanized steel to resist corrosion. They are available in various sizes and configurations to minimize installation costs and time, with units that are factory-assembled and tested.
Product Offering
The product line includes models AFS with single-row fans and AFD with double-row fans, featuring 1140 RPM fan motors. Sizes range from 005 to 212, with multiple voltage options. Control options include fan cycling thermostats and transformers, with rough duty options for enhanced durability.
Design Features
Fluid coolers are designed for easy installation with factory-installed lifting brackets and pre-wired fan motors. They undergo dynamic stress testing for durability. The housing is made from G90 galvanized steel, and the coils use a patented Floating Tube Design to prevent leaks. Fan motors are high efficiency, and fan blades are optimized for performance and noise reduction.
Selection Procedure
The selection process involves calculating design capacity, average fluid temperature, and initial temperature difference. Correction factors for capacity and pressure drop are applied based on glycol percentage and altitude. Operating limits include maximum fluid and air temperatures.
Application Adjustment Factors
Tables provide fluid constants, capacity correction factors, altitude correction factors, and pressure drop correction factors for different glycol percentages and temperatures. Fin spacing and motor options also affect performance.
Performance Data
Performance tables detail base capacities at various flow rates and glycol percentages, with pressure drop data provided for different models and configurations.
Installation
Installation guidelines emphasize the ease of setup with factory-installed components and single-point field wiring.
Specifications
Specifications cover material construction, motor types, and compliance with UL and CSA standards, including acceptance by the New York City Material and Equipment Acceptance Division.
Specifications
1. All fan blades are 30 inches in diameter, and motors are 1 HP with specific voltage requirements. Motors with 830 RPM are not available in single-phase.
2. The fluid coolers are designed for outdoor applications and can be mounted on roofs or concrete slabs.
3. The units must comply with ARI, ANSI/ASHRAE 15, ASHRAE 90.1, and UL standards.
Procedures
1. Installation requires sufficient clearance for air circulation and maintenance access. Units should be mounted on steel channels or concrete slabs with vibration pads.
2. Piping should be designed to prevent leaks, with vents at high points and shut-off valves for maintenance.
3. Sound and vibration considerations include installing units away from occupied spaces and using isolation hangers for piping.
Norms and Standards
1. The fluid cooler must be manufactured in an ISO certified facility.
2. The warranty covers a period of one year from equipment start-up, not exceeding 18 months from shipment.
Recommendations
1. Use of alternate coil constructions and fan cycling controls is available for enhanced performance.
2. Ensure proper glycol-to-water ratio to prevent freeze potential.
3. Consult the catalog for specific conditions and pressure drops.
Data Summary
1. Tables provide detailed specifications on fan configurations, connection sizes, and physical data for various models.
2. Sound pressure levels are provided for different fan configurations and distances.
3. Optional features include alternate coil constructions, single-phase motors, and extended leg kits.
Installation Guidelines
1. Units should be installed with adequate clearance from walls and obstructions to ensure proper airflow.
2. For units in pits, discharge cones or stacks must be used to raise discharge air to the top of the pit.
3. Decorative fences must have 50% free area and meet clearance requirements.
Additional Notes
1. The document includes detailed tables and figures for connection sizes, physical data, and sound data.
2. The installation section provides guidelines for unit location, sound and vibration considerations, and piping installation.
Acceptable Manufacturers
A. The basis of design is the Daikin Applied model AFS/AFD, including standard and special features as per plans and specifications.
B. Equipment from other manufacturers may be considered equal if they meet all specified architectural, mechanical, electrical, and structural details, as well as performance requirements.
Unit Description
Each fluid cooler includes a cabinet, fluid coil, multiple direct drive propeller fans with independent motors, fan guards, and mounting legs. All fan motors are factory wired to a common electrical junction box.
Design Requirements
A. The fluid cooler must be complete and suitable for outdoor use, complying with referenced standards and local codes.
B. It should operate stably across expected conditions.
C. Sound pressure levels must not exceed specified dBa at a given distance, with sound treatment provided if necessary.
Fluid Cooler Components
A. Coil: Constructed of seamless copper tubes with aluminum or copper fins, designed for metal-to-metal contact. Coils are factory tested and shipped under pressure.
B. Cabinet: Made of pre-painted G90 galvanized steel with individual fan compartments.
C. Motors: Dual voltage, open drip-proof with internal overloads.
D. Fan and Fan Guard: Heavy gauge aluminum blades with PVC coated steel guards.
E. Electrical: Weatherproof control panel with 120 volts control voltage.
F. Temperature Control: Automatic fan cycling to maintain fluid temperatures, factory mounted and wired.
Options and Accessories
Includes copper fins coil, PolyGuard acrylic coated fins, ElectroFin dipped coils, single-phase motors, totally enclosed fan motors, NEMA rated contactors, Sealtite motor wiring conduit, and field-installed fluid manifold header units.
Execution
A. Installation must follow manufacturer’s instructions, with field-installed piping leak tested and charged.
B. Cooler must be adjusted and leveled.
C. Coordinate electrical and control installations with respective contractors.
D. Ensure all necessary appurtenances for a fully operational unit.
Start-Up
Provide labor and materials for proper commissioning of the unit.

Design Features Ease of Installation The fluid coolers are designed to reduce the cost and time required for installation. All lifting brackets are factory-installed, and the legs are designed for quick installation. Fan motors are factory wired to a control panel, providing a single point for field wiring. The control panel has a through-the-door disconnect switch. A wide variety of fan control panels can be factory mounted and wired, eliminating the need for a field-mounted, built-up control panel. Dynamic Stress Testing Fan motor and blade assemblies undergo dynamic stress testing. This testing...

The tubes in the fluid circuit are expanded into the fins, but “float” through oversized holes in the tube sheets. Tube sheet leaks are virtually eliminated, since the tubes that carry fluid never come in contact with the tube sheet. (Models AFS 005 through 021 are conventional, non-floating design.) Fan Motors The fan motors are high efficiency, three-phase motors designed for outdoor applications. Motors have thermal overload protection and fuses and have permanently lubricated ball bearings with direct drive fans at 1140 rpm, with 830 rpm available as a special. All motors are factory-wired...
