installation.
2.6 Piping
2.6.1 Piping For Air-Cooled Unit
All joints of the cooling pipes must be silver brazed. Standard industry procedures must be followed in selecting, laying,
and fixing the pipes, and in vacuuming the system and charging refrigerant. Take pipeline pressure drop, oil return to
the compressor and minimization of noise and vibration into consideration during the design and construction.
General
The recommended pipe sizes are ‘equivalent lengths’ (see Table 2-5 for equivalent lengths of partial components),
which has included the resistance brought about by bends. You should confirm that the sizes are appropriate for the
site conditions.
1. If the one-way equivalent length exceeds 30m, or if the vertical difference between indoor unit and outdoor unit
exceeds the values in Table 2-4, consult the factory before installation for confirmation whether extended components
are needed.
Table 2-4 Vertical difference between indoor unit and outdoor unit
Relative position Value
Indoor unti lower than outdoor unit Max.: +20m
Outdoor unit lower than indoor unit Max.: -5m
2. The pipe sizes recommended in Table 2-5 are ‘equivalent lengths’, which has included the resistance brought about
by bends and valves. You should confirm that the sizes are appropriate for the site conditions.

The pipes to connect include:
1. Cooling water drain-pipe of indoor unit
2. Water supply pipe of infrared humidifier
3. Connecting copper pipe (exhaust pipe and liquid return pipe) between indoor unit and outdoor unit
4. Installing extension subassembly (optional)
� Connecting cooling water drain-pipe of indoor unit
The cooling water of infrared humidifier and evaporator is converged by the cross connector and drains through the
draining pipe, as shown in Figure 2-21. The OD of the pipe is 25mm. If the draining pipe is used by three or more units,
the minimal OD of the pipe should be 40mm.
� Note
Because the humidifier contains boiling water, the plastic pipe must be rated higher than 194°F.

2. When connecting the draining pipe, make sure that the U bend is installed vertically and the ‘U’ shape is not distorted, so as to
ensure that the cooling water can be drained immediately and effectively.
� Connecting water supply pipe of infrared humidifier
Connect water pipes for the infrared humidifier. To facilitate maintenance, a strainer / non-return isolation valve is fitted
to the supply water pipe. The infrared humidifier reserves a copper pipe (OD: 6.35mm) as shown in Figure 2-22.
Connect it with pipes according to the site condition. Make sure the connection is well sealed to prevent leakage. The
pipe pressure is 100kPa ~ 700kPa.
Where the main pressure may rise above 700kPa, a pressure reducer should be fitted. Where the pressure falls below
100kPa, a water tank and pump system should be used.

Liebert.PEX Series Air Conditioner User Manual
The indoor unit and outdoor unit are connected through welded copper pipes. The connection of discharge pipe / liquid
pipe of indoor unit is shown in Figure 2-23. Note that the ball valve must be wrapped with a wet cloth before welding. In
addition, many notes and instruction labels are pasted onto the base board and side board close to the ball valve. Do
not have them burned during the welding operation.
� Note
The exposure time of system pipes do not exceed 15min. Otherwise, it will lead to the POE refrigeration oil moisture effect the
life of the key components and the system operation stability.
Horizontal sections of discharge pipes should be sloped downward from the compressor, with a slope of at least 1:200
(5mm down for each 1m run). Discharge pipes should be heat insulated where they are routed in the conditioned
space (including under a raised floor).
The liquid pressure drop should not exceed 40kPa (5psi ~6psi), provided that there is no loss of refrigeration. The
liquid line pressure drop is the sum of liquid flow resistance from the tubing and fitting (including the drier), plus the
loss of head pressure due to elevation above the condenser. If the liquid temperature is 100.4°F, the static pressure
loss is 11kPa (1.6 psi) per meter of lift.

� Installing the extension subassembly (be applicable to site installation)
When the equivalent length of pipe exceeds 30m, the extension subassembly should be installed. It is recommended
to install the solenoid valve of the extension subassembly to the outside project pipe of the ball valve on the liquid pipe,
or the outer side (or on the bottom) of the unit.
18 Chapter 2 Mechanical Installation
Liebert.PEX Series Air Conditioner User Manual
So, during installing the solenoid valve, you need not to cut the indoor unit pipes. After the whole system is installed,
you can open the ball valve to keep pressure and carry out vacuum operation, avoiding the moisture absorption of the
compressor refrigeration oil and ensuring the operation safety and life of the compressor. For installation valve of the
check valve, refer to Figure 2-6.
For the electrical connections of the extension subassembly, refer to 3.2.4 Wiring Of Extension Subassembly
Solenoid Valve (For Site Installation).
Charging refrigerant and adding refrigerant oil
1. Charging with refrigerant
The Liebert.PEX air-cooled series air conditioner had been charged with 2bar nitrogen to keep pressure at the factory.
For initial charging capacity, refer to the step 5 in 4.2.2 Commissioning Procedures. If the connecting pipe between
the indoor unit and the outdoor unit is longer than 10m, add refrigerant to the system in order to ensure normal system
operation.
The amount of the refrigerant is calculated through the following formula:
Refrigerant amount (kg) = unit length liquid pipe refrigerant amount (kg/m) × length of extended pipe (m)
See Table 2-7 for the unit length liquid pipe refrigerant amount.
Length of extended pipe (m) = Total length of liquid pipe (m) - 10m
Table 2-7 Unit length liquid pipe refrigerant amount of pipes with different ODs
Pipe OD (mm) Unit length liquid pipe refrigerant
amount (kg/m) Pipe OD (mm)
Unit length liquid pipe refrigerant
amount (kg/m)
9.52 0.060 19 0.261
12.7 0.112 22 0.362
16 0.181
28.6 0.618
2. Adding refrigerant oil
The added refrigerant will dilute the refrigerant oil in the system, undermining the lubricating and cooling effects of the
refrigerant oil. Therefore more refrigerant oil should be added. See the formula below:
Amount of refrigerant oil to be added = amount of added refrigerant × 22.6ml
2.6.2 Connecting Pipes For Water-cooled Units
Each cooling system uses a Plate Heat Exchanger (PHE, or condenser) and a water-regulating valve. The system
requires connecting water supply pipe and water drain pipe to condenser. See Figure 2-24.
A filter (filter mesh: 1mm) and multiple isolation valves should be mounted to the condenser water supply pipe. One of
the valves can be a balancing valve.
The pumping effect of the condenser water system with a balancing valve will be better, because it can better control
the water distribution. On the other hand, the water-regulating valve can keep the optimal condensing temperature by
regulating the water flow.
It is recommended to arrange the cooling water pipes separately for different systems, so that repairing one pipe will
not affect the operation of another one.
The water pressure should be high enough to counteract the pressure drops brought about by all the components of
the water system. In addition, because the sediments and impurities cause more pressure drop after long term
operation, arrange a redundancy of 20% ~ 25% when selecting the lifting part (like the pump).
See Figure 2-7 for the layout of the water-cooled system.
Connecting pipes
The following pipes need to be connected:
� Drain pipe of condensing water for indoor unit
See 2.6.1 Piping For Air-Cooled Unit.
� Water supply pipe for infrared humidifier
See 2.6.1 Piping For Air-Cooled Unit.
� Water pipes at the condenser side

2.8 Removing Transport Fastener And Vibration Absorber
In order to protect partial components from damaging and distorting due to bumping, impact and resonation, fasteners
and vibration absorbers are mounted at certain locations before delivery. Remove the fasteners and vibration
absorbers before installation and commissioning.
Removing transport fixing plate from the compressor
To reduce the compressor operation vibration and noise, the vibration absorbing cushions are added to the
compressor base. However, such device cannot best restrain the equipment vibration during the transportation,
resulting in loosened connections and wearing of certain parts. To counteract such effect, three L shaped plates are
added to the compressor base during the transportation, as shown in Figure 2-28.

Removing transport fastener of fan compoents
1. Upflow unit
The motor base of the fan is designed with a semi-free self-tension structure to minimize the fan operation noise and
prolong the belt life. During the transportation, to protect the semi-free structure from failing or collapsing due to
resonation, the upflow unit is especially fastened with bolts (left and right symmetrical, two at either side), as shown in
Figure 2-29. You should cut the binding string on the belt and remove the four fixing bolts before the power-on
operation, otherwise the fan could be damaged and even cause personal injury. Removing the bolts requires the
collaboration of two persons, with one holding the motor and the other removing the bolts.
� Note
After you open the front door of unit, you will see a warning label concerning bolt removal on the sealing panel of the fan. Do
remove the bolts by following the preceding instructions.

Liebert.PEX Series Air Conditioner User Manual
Control signals of outdoor unit
Terminals 70, 71, and terminals 70A, 71A are two pairs of control signal input terminals of outdoor unit. Their on/off
state is the same as that of the compressor.
Customized alarm terminals
Terminals 50, 51, 55 can be connected to three kinds of sensors, including fire sensor and water sensor. Terminal 24 is
the common terminal. After connecting sensors to the terminals, you should set the corresponding customized alarm
through the microprocessor. See 5.7.6 SET ALARMS for details. When the contactor is open and there is no external
alarm, the input state of the customized terminal is open. But when the contactor is closed and the external alarm is
raised, the input state of the customized terminal will be shorted. At this time, the system will raise sirens, and the LCD
of indoor unit will display the alarm information. If a PC installed with Emerson monitoring software is connected to the
system, the alarm will also be displayed on the PC.
The terminals can be defined as follows:
Terminals 50 and 24: remote alarm.
Terminals 51 and 24: water sensor (by default).
Terminals 55 and 24: safe switch for condensation water pump (optional).
External alarm terminals
Terminals 75 and 76 can be used as external alarm terminals. They are controlled by the external alarm relay K3 on
the circuit board. They output signals to external alarm devices, such as the alarm indicator. When critical alarm occurs,
the contactor will close to trigger remote alarms, send signals to the building management system or dial the paging
system automatically. The power supply of the external alarm system is user self-prepared.
Refer to Appendix 2 Circuit Diagram for the detailed definition of other terminals.
3.2.4 Connecting Extension Component Solenoid Valve (For Site Installation)
The extension subassembly solenoid valve has three connection cables, two of which are control cables (brown) used
to connect with the corresponding terminals of control board and one of which is ground cable used to connect the
ground terminal block. Note that the solenoid valve cables of 1# system and 2# system in double system unit should
be remarked for voiding wrong connection. For detailed terminal positions, refer to the LLSV1 and LLSV2 connection
terminal No. in Appendix 2 Circuit Diagram.
3.2.5 Connecting Control Signal Cables Of Outdoor Unit
Opening the sealed panel of electric control box reveals the fan speed controller board, according to the cable
connection instructions of Liebert.PEX Condenser User Manual.
When a condenser with single system is used to match an indoor unit with single system, the digital signal of J6 dry
contact (see 3.1 Wiring Terminals in Liebert.PEX Condenser User Manual) is from the control interface 70/71 (see
Figure 3-6) of indoor unit.
When two condensers with single system are used to match an indoor unit with double system, the digital signals of J6
dry contact on the boards of those two condensers are from the control interface 70/71 and 70A/71A respectively.
When a condenser with double system is used to match an indoor unit with double system, you short the terminals 70
& 70A and 71 & 71A. The control circuit can be connected to the terminals 70 and 71 or terminals 70A and 71A.
For details, refer to Appendix 2 Circuit Diagram.

4.2 Power-on Commissioning Of Air-Cooled Series
4.2.1 Preparation Before Commissioning
Mechanical part
1. Check that the protection materials for transportation have been removed. For the upflow series unit, check that the
transportation bolts of the fan have been removed; check that the motor pulley and the fan pulley are fixed, the motor
bearing and fan bearing are parallel, the belt is perpendicular to the two bearings and the tension of the belt is proper.
2. The cooling pipe system has past the pressure leak test.
3. The total charge has been roughly calculated. If the pipe is too long, the rated amount of refrigerant oil should have
been charged into the system.
4. The water supply & drain pipe-system of the humidification system has been reliably connected, the material
requirement is met and the leak detection has been done.
5. The heating tape of the compressor has been preheated for over 12hr.
6. Make sure the equipment room is above 68°F with certain heat load. Otherwise, pre-heat the equipment room with
any heating device, or by forcedly running the heaters of the unit (in this case, go through the following procedures till
the third entry of 4.2.2 Commissioning Procedures first) and of other equipment in the room. Ensure sufficient heat
load for the commissioning.
7. In the winter, it may be necessary to manually raise the condensing pressure to 16Bar by manually shielding some
condensing area and limiting condensing air quantity.
Electric part
1. Check that the voltage of the main power supply is within ±10% of the rating, and that the isolation switch of the
air-cooled condenser of the outdoor unit has been closed.
2. Check that the power or control circuits are reliably connected. Fasten all the connecting terminals.
3. The power cables and the low voltage control cables are laid away from each other.
4. Check the phase sequence. The phase sequences of all three-phase devices have been adjusted consistent before
delivery. During commissioning, you only need to ensure the phase sequence of a random three-phase device is
correct. In step two of 4.2.2 Commissioning Procedures, if you run the fan by clicking on the fan contactor in the
electric control box with a straight screwdriver, you can judge the phase sequence by observing the wind direction. If
the phase sequence is wrong, exchange any two phases of the L line of the power supply.
4.2.2 Commissioning Procedures
1. Turn off the MCB of various parts. Turn on the isolation switches and control MCBs. Check the control voltage.
2. Click on the fan contactor with a screwdriver to start the fan and make sure the fan blowing direction is correct. Start
the system and measure all the operation phase-currents of the fan.
3. Turn on the electric heating MCB and change the temperature setting to start the heater, or start the heater manually.
Measure all the phase currents of the electric reheat.
To trigger the heater, you should:
Adjust the temperature setting (see 5.7 SERVICE MENUS) to 41°F higher than the equipment room temperature.
The control system should then trigger the heating demand, and the electric reheat starts to work. Then adjust the
temperature setting to 41°F lower than the equipment room temperature. If the heater stops working, it means the
heating function is normal. Then continue with the following procedures.
4. Turn on the humidifier MCB and change the humidity setting to start the humidifier, or start the humidifier manually.
Measure all the phase currents of the humidifier. In addition, inject water manually to make sure the filling pipe and
drainage conduit do not leak, and the drainage conduit is clear.
To trigger the humidifier, you should:
Adjust the humidity setting (see 5.7 SERVICE MENUS) to 10% higher than the indoor Relative Humidity (RH). The
control system should then trigger the humidifying demand, and the humidifier starts to work. If the humidifier stops
working when the humidity setting is lower than the indoor RH, it means the humidifying function is normal.
� Note
After the test, restore the temperature and humidity settings to the defaults or the original settings.
32 Chapter 4 System Start-up And Commissioning
Liebert.PEX Series Air Conditioner User Manual
5. Pump the cooling system vacuum to -30in.Hg (pumping time: >3hrs), and hold the state for 4hr. The pressure
should not rise, and the sight glass appears green (to make sure the cooling system vacuum and dry, pump the
cooling system repeatedly at least three times).
After checking the vacuum state of the cooling system, pump in proper amount of liquid refrigerant quickly before the
power-on (usually pump until the pressures inside the refrigerant container equalizes with that in the cooling system).
Connect the composite pressure gauge to the interface on the high/low pressure needle valve.
Connect the composite pressure gauge to the refrigerant cylinder. Note to exhaust the air inside the tube of the gauge.
1) Change the temperature setting to start cooling, or start cooling manually. Make sure the dehumidification and hot
gas bypass valve is closed. Measure in real time all the phase currents of the compressor.
To start cooling (start the compressor), you should:
Change the temperature setting (see 5.7 SERVICE MENUS) to 41°F lower than the indoor temperature. The control
system should then trigger the cooling demand, and the compressor starts to work. After at least three minutes of
cooling, change the temperature setting to 41°F higher than the indoor temperature. If the compressor stops working
then, it means the cooling function is normal.
� Note
After the test, restore the temperature setting to the default or the original setting.
2) Check and confirm the working current of the condenser fan. Make sure the fan runs stably.
3) Start the compressor, and charge refrigerant gas (R22) or refrigerant liquid (R407C) slowly to the compressor inlet
until the subcooling degree reaches 5K (or 8K ~ 10K) and the sight glass contains no air bulbs.
The condensing temperature should be kept at 113°F.
Keep charging and adjust the thermostatic expansion valve to 41°F ~ 46.4°F superheat degree. The adjustment step
of the valve should be smaller than 1/4 round, and the interval between two steps should be at least 15min.
Observe the compressor suction pipes and make sure there is no water condensing on the surface of the compressor
and the pipes, so as to avoid the risk of slugging the compressor.
At the return of 71.6°F/50%, 16Bar ~ 17Bar condensing pressure, the compressor suction pressure should be above 5
Bar.
At the return of 75.2°F/50%, 16Bar ~ 17Bar condensing pressure, he compressor suction pressure should be above
5.5Bar.
4) Check the dehumidification function
To trigger dehumidification, you should:
Change the humidify setting (see 5.7 SERVICE MENUS) to 10% lower than the indoor RH. The control system
should then trigger the call for dehumidification, the dehumidification solenoid valve switches on, and the
dehumidification indicator Q3 on the control panel turns on. Then change the humidity setting higher than the indoor
RH. If the dehumidification solenoid valve switches off, and the dehumidification indicator Q3 turns off, it means the
dehumidification function is normal. Note that during the commissioning process, if the indoor temperature is 37.4°F
higher than the temperature setting, the system may enter the forced cooling mode, and the dehumidification demand
will not be responded.
� Note
After the test, restore the humidity setting to the default or the original setting.
4.2.3 Commissioning Complete Inspection

This chapter introduces the operation and maintenance of the Liebert.PEX series air conditioner.
7.1 System Self-diagnosing Test
7.1.1 Self-diagnosing Functions
As limited by the environmental conditions, certain components may remain idle for a long time, and there is no telling
of whether they are faulty. However, upon urgent needs, such components may fail to meet the demand. Therefore it
is necessary to check the system components regularly. The controller provides the function that enables you to turn
on/off the components onsite manually so as to check their functionality. For the operation instruction, see 5.7.5
DIAGNOSTICS.
� Note
1. During the operation of the Liebert.PEX system, lethal voltage may be present in the internal parts. It is a must to obey all the
notes and warnings marked on the equipment or contained in this manual, otherwise injury or fatality may occur.
2. Only qualified maintenance and repairing personnel can operate and process the system.
7.1.2 Electric Control Part
Maintenance of electric part
Carry out visual inspection and handling over the electrical connection by referring to the following items.
1. Overall electrical insulation test: find out the unqualified contacts and handle them. Note to disconnect the fuses or
MCBs of the control part during the test lest the high voltage should damage the control components.
2. Carry out detection over the contactors before the power-on, make sure the contactors can act freely without
obstruction.
3. Clean the electric and control components of dust with brush or dry compressed air.
4. Check the closing of contactors for arcs or signs of burning. Replace the contactor if necessary.
5. Fasten all the electric connection terminals.
6. Check that the sockets and plugs are in good condition. Replace those loosened ones.
Maintenance of control system
Carry out visual inspection, simple function test and handling over the control parts by referring to the following items.
1. Visually inspect the power transformers and isolation transformers and test the output voltage (of the indoor unit &
outdoor condensers).
2. Check that there is no signs of aging on the control interface board, display control board, sensor board and fuse
board.
3. Clean the electric control components and control board of dust and dirt with brush and electronic dust removing
agent.
4. Check and fasten the I/O ports at the control interface board, including the connection between display control
board and control interface board, as well as between the temperature/humidity sensor board and the interface board.
5. Check the connection between the user terminals (70, 71, 70A, 71A, 37, 38, 77, 78) and the control interface board.
6. Check the output connection between the control interface board and various components, including various
contactors, solenoid valves for liquid pipes and bypass solenoid valves (HG bypass, liquid bypass). The input
connection between control interface board and various components, including fan overload protector, HP/LP
switches, heating over-temperature protection switch, humidifier dry-burn protection switch, filter clogging switch and
filter pressure difference switch. In particular, check the connection parts such as HP/LP switches and solenoid valves,
and replace the component if it is found loosened or in poor connection.
7. Replace the electric components that are detected faulty, such as faulty control fuses (or MCBs) and control boards.
66 Chapter 7 System O&M
Liebert.PEX Series Air Conditioner User Manual
8. Check the specification and aging situation of the control cable and power cable between the indoor unit and the
condenser, and replace the cable when necessary.
9. Use temperature/humidity measuring meter with high precision to proof-read and calibrate the temperature/humidity
sensor. Note to set the humidity control mode to RH control during the process of calibration.
10. Check the following external sensors.
1) Smoke detector (optional)
The power supply of the smoke detector is located at the bottom (or top) of the upflow (or downflow) unit. It
incessantly samples the air, analyzes the samples and makes judgment. It requires no calibration.
2) Water leak detector
The water leak detector has a dry contactor. The contactor will close when the detector probes detect water or
other conductive liquid.
The detector should be placed away from any water pool or drainage trench on the floor, 2m ~ 2.5m away from the
machine. Do not place it directly under the machine. The recommended location for the water leak detector is
shown in Figure 7-1.

� Note
1. Before connecting any mechanical parts or cables, make sure the power supply of the control unit has been disconnected.
2. Do not use the water leak detector adjacent to flammable liquid or use it to detect flammable liquid.
11. Adjust the set points. Check the auto-flush control logic and HG bypass logic of water pan of the infrared humidifier
and the action of the functional parts according to control logic.
12. Simulate the fault scenario to check the work state of protection devices including high/low voltage alarm, high/low
temperature alarm, high/low water level alarm and over-temperature protection device.
7.2 Dust Filter
To ensure efficient operation, the dust filter must be checked once a month, and be replaced as required. The filter
clogging switch and pressure difference switch are located as shown in Figure 7-2.

Chapter 7 System O&M 67
Liebert.PEX Series Air Conditioner User Manual
Power off before replacing the filter. You need to adjust the setting point of the filter clogging switch if the new filter is of
a different model. The filter clogging switch is located in the electric control box. It samples the air pressures before
and behind the filter through a black hose, and decides the output after comparing the two values.
To adjust the setting point of the filter clogging switch, you should:
1. After replacing the filter, restore and seal all the panels, so that the alarm point can be found precisely.
2. Keep the fan running, and rotate the rotary switch of the filter clogging switch counter clockwise until the filter alarm
is triggered.
3. Rotate the rotary switch clockwise for 2.5 rounds, or rotate it according to the new filter’s model.
� Note
1. Set the setting point properly. Otherwise, the filter alarm may be triggered too frequently; or, in the opposite case, the dust
accumulation on the filter could not trigger the alarm, endangering the system operation due to deteriorated ventilation.
2. If you are unsure about the setting point, consult with Emerson before using a filter of a different model to replace the old one.
7.3 Fan Kit
The fan components that require regular checking include belt, motor bracket, fan bearing and blades.
The fan and the installation board are designed in consistency. The belt tension is regulated automatically under the
force of gravity, so as to reduce the fan vibration and protect the belt. If you need more details, please contact the
manufacturer.
7.3.1 Fan Bearing And Blades
Check the fan regularly to make sure the bearing is firmly fixed. Rotate the blades and make sure that they do not
scratch the wall of the air duct. Because the bearing is permanently sealed and self-lubricated, check for signs of
wearing when adjusting the belt. Roll the belt and observe the motion of the fan bearing. If any abnormal displacement
is observed, replace the bearing.
7.3.2 Belt
Measure the belt tension with a tension meter. You can also press down the belt at the middle point between the two
pulleys. The displacement should be 0.5” ~ 1”.
If the belt is found worn out or distorted, replace it with a new belt. The new belt should be of the same model as the
old one.
7.3.3 Motor
To replace the failed motor, you need to be very careful, especially with the upflow unit. Use a dedicated fixture to hold
the motor before removing the fixing bolts at the bottom of the motor.
7.4 Infrared Humidifier
During the normal operation of the humidifier, sediment will accumulate on the water pan. To ensure efficient operation
of the humidifier, you need to clean the sediment regularly. However, the cleansing cycle varies because the water is
different in different regions. It is recommended to check, and cleanse (when necessary) the water pan, once a month.
Remove the water level regulator to drain the water pan. Disconnect the drainage pipe, remove the dry-burning
protection switch of the water pan, remove the fixing screws at the two ends of the pan, and pull out the water pan.
Cleanse the water pan with water and hard brush, and restore the water pan by reversing the preceding procedures.
� Note
Before removing the water pan, make sure that the power has been cut off, and the water in the water pan is not too hot.
The autoflush function of the humidifier can prolong the cleansing cycle. However, timed check and maintenance are
indispensable.
Replacing the lamps of the humidifier
The lamp of the infrared humidifier is shown in Figure 7-3. Follow the procedures below to replace it.
68 Chapter 7 System O&M
Liebert.PEX Series Air Conditioner User Manual
1. Cut off the main isolation power switch.
2. Unplug all the control lines of the humidifier and cut off the cable ties that binds the humidifier power cables. In the
single-door system, the plugs of the humidifier are sealed in the niche above the lamp, and you need to open the cover
plate in front of the humidifier before you can reach the plugs. The plugs of the double-door and triple-door systems
are located to the left of the humidifier and are accessible directly.
3. After draining the water in the water pan, remove the drainage pipe, remove the fixing screws on both sides of the
humidifier, and then pull out the humidifier.
4. Open the cover plate (for single-door system, this cover plate has been opened in step two) to reveal the ceramic
socket. Use the multimeter to locate the burned lamp.
5. Remove the humidifier water pan.
6. Remove the brackets in the middle that support the lamps.

with hand).
8. Pull down the lamp.
9. Install a new lamp.
� Note
Do not touch the quartz lamp with bare hands! Greasy sediment and finger prints can seriously shorten the life span of quartz
lamps. Therefore, put on clean cotton gloves during the operation.
10. Restore the humidifier by reversing steps 3 ~ 8.
Autoflush system of the infrared humidifier
� Note
The normal operation of the autoflush system, the humidifier demands a water source with minimum water flow of 1gpm (0.063
l/s) and minimum pressure of 20 psig (138kPa).
Operation of the autoflush
The autoflush control program is an integral part of the infrared humidifier system. The program automatically controls
a water makeup valve to maintain the proper water level in the humidifier pan during operation. When a call for
humidification exists, the program performs a series of checks.
The first check is to see how long the infrared humidifier has been off. If the off time is equal to or greater than the
programmed value (factory default is 15hr), it is assumed that the pan is dry and a program called pre-fill is initiated to
add water to the pan. During the pre-fill operation the infrared lamps are inactive. The pre-fill time is programmable
with an adjustable range of 1 ~ 120s for either pan size. The factory default for a large pan is 60s and for a small pan is
30s.
If the off time is less than 15hr (or user programmed value) the pre-fill program is bypassed and the infrared lamps and
water valve are activated at the same time to fill the pan to the proper water level and initiate humidification.
During normal infrared humidification operation the water makeup valve is periodically closed (no pan fill) and opened
(pan fill) based on a timing sequence to allow for the evaporation of water from the pan.
With the humidifier water flush rate set at the factory default value of 150% the water makeup valve will open for 7min
of till time with an off time of 45s between fill cycles for a small pan. For a large pan water makeup valve will open for
10min of fill time with an off time of 80s between fill cycles. You can modify the percentage from 110% to a maximum
of 500% in 1% increments. See Figure 7-4 for humidification control logic.

7.5 Electric Reheat
Check the rust on the electric reheat. If necessary, clean the dust with wire brush, or replace the heater.
The electric reheat is classified into upflow heater and downflow heater, as shown in Figure 7-5. Three temperature
switches are in series connection within the internal control circuit of the heater, including two auto-reset switches and
one manual reset switch. When the heater does not respond to the heating demand, check that the manual reset
switch is on.

7.6 Cooling System
Check the cooling system components once a month to make sure that the system function is normal and there are no
signs of wearing. Because the failure or damage of components is usually accompanied by corresponding faults,
regular checking is a major means to prevent most system faults. The refrigerant pipes must be supported by properly
set brackets, and be laid away from the ceiling, floor or anywhere that vibrates. Check the refrigerant pipes once every
six months to make sure that they are not worn out, and the fixing brackets are not loosened.
Each system has a sight glass to facilitate the observation of refrigerant flow and the system moisture content. When
the system moisture content is too high, the sight glass turns from green to yellow.
When the cooling system is faulty, you can locate the fault by referring to certain parameters of system operation.
70 Chapter 7 System O&M
Liebert.PEX Series Air Conditioner User Manual
7.6.1 Suction Pressure
The compressor may stop when the suction pressure drops below the setting of the low-pressure switch. On the other
hand, too high suction pressure will undermine the cooling effect the refrigerant does to the compressor motor, leading
to the damage of the compressor. The minimum (pressure switch action point) and the maximum (allowed by the
system operation) suction pressure are listed in Table 7-1.
Table 7-1 Suction pressure
System Min. pressure kPa (PSIG) R-22 Max. pressure kPa (PSIG) R–22
Air-cooled (stepless fan speed controller) 138 (20) 620 (90)
Water-cooled 138 (20) 620 (90)
Note:
The maximum operation LP of single system HG bypass should be lower than 700kPa
7.6.2 Exhaust Pressure
The exhaust pressure may change with the load or the condenser efficiency. When the exhaust pressure rises to the
setting of the pressure switch, the high pressure switch will act to stop the compressor. See Table 7-2 for details.
Table 7-2 Exhaust pressure

Water at 85°F 1450 (210)
High pressure switch action
point 2760 (400)
7.6.3 Suction Superheat Degree
The Thermal Expansion Valve (TXV) can regulate the suction superheat degree. Follow the procedures below to
determine the system suction superheat degree.
1. Measure the temperature of the suction pipe at the TXV thermo bulb.
2. Sample the compressor suction pressure at the needle valve of the suction pipe.
3. Evaluate the pressure difference between the two locations: thermo bulb and needle valve of the suction pipe.
4. Add the sum of the preceding two pressures with the standard local air pressure to find out the saturation
temperature corresponding to the saturation pressure.
5. The difference between the suction temperature at the thermo bulb and the saturation temperature is the suction
superheat degree.
The suction superheat degree is critical to the compressor lifespan. If the compressor runs with little or no suction
superheat degree for a long time, slugging may occur to the compressor, crashing the scroll plate of the scroll
compressor.
7.6.4 Expansion Valve
Operation
The auto-regulation of the expansion valve guarantees sufficient refrigerant for the evaporator in order to meet the
needs of the load. The superheat degree is an indicator of the operation state of expansion valve. If the refrigerant to
the evaporator is insufficient, the superheat degree will be high; and if the refrigerant to the evaporator is too much, the
superheat degree will be low. The proper superheat degree is 42.08°F ~ 46.94°F.
Regulation
Follow the procedures below to regulate the superheat degree setting.
1. Unscrew the bonnet at the bottom of the expansion valve.
2. Rotate the rotary switch counter clockwise to reduce the superheat degree.
3. Rotate the rotary switch clockwise to raise the superheat degree.
Chapter 7 System O&M 71
Liebert.PEX Series Air Conditioner User Manual
� Note
1. Before delivery, the refrigerant of water-cooled unit has been charged, and the expansion valve has been adjusted. If you need
to adjust the expansion valve, please contact Emerson.
2. Every time you rotate the rotary switch, do not rotate it for more than one round, and it may take up to 30mins to reach a new
balance.
7.6.5 Hot Gas Bypass Valve (For Single Compressor System)
When the heat load in the room is not high, the single compressor system can regulate the indoor temperature by
using the hot gas bypass valve. In this way, the frequent use of the compressor is avoided, which is also energy saving.
The hot gas bypass is shown in Figure 7-6.

7.6.6 Liquid Line Bypass Solenoid Valve (For Water-cooled Series Only, Compressor-on Bypass)
The water-cooled series uses the Plate Heat Exchanger (PHE) as its condenser. Thanks to the high efficiency and
compact structure of the PHE, the volume of PHE is small, as compared to the air-cooled condenser. Before the
power-on, the PHE could be the coldest part in the system, and partial coolant would move to the PHE. Upon system
power-on, the system high pressure would soon reach the system HP protection point, and trigger the protection. The
liquid line bypass solenoid valve is designed to bypass the coolant upon system power-on, as shown in Figure 7-8.
The valve is normally off. It turns on when the compressor starts upon system power-on. The lead-time before the
bypass and the bypass time are settable.

When the system demands cooling, while the compressor fails to start after frequent on-off (within 10 min, after three
on-offs, HP alarm still occurs upon the forth on) due to the high pressure, make sure the bypass valve is on. If the
bypass valve is on while the compressor still cannot start, check whether or not the temperature of the water input to
the PHE is within the stipulated range.
7.6.7 Air-Cooled Condenser
For more detailed maintenance information, see the maintenance part of the Liebert.PEX Condenser User Manual.
7.6.8 Water-cooled Condenser
Plate heat exchanger
The turbulence generated in the ducts of soldered PHE can clean the ducts. However, on occasions when scaling is
serious, like when hot hard water is used, it is necessary to use cyclic rinsing device to clean the PHE. Put weak acid
(like 5% phosphoric acid) into a jar and use a pump to inject the fluid into the PHE to clean it. If the PHE is cleaned
regularly, use 5% oxalic acid.
The cleaning of the PHE is not covered by Emerson maintenance service. If necessary, you can consult with Emerson
service personnel.
Water flow regulator
The water flow regulator adjusts the valve position by collecting the exhaust pressure signal from the cooling system,
so as to control the water flow through the PHE. The heavier the load is, the more water flow is allowed to flow through
the PHE. The valve is composed of a copper body, balancing spring, seat, valve fixer, capillary tube and regulating
rod.
Regulating method
The valve can be adjusted with a ratchet wrench.
To reduce the condensing pressure, turn the square adjusting screw clockwise to the desired setting.
Chapter 7 System O&M 73
Liebert.PEX Series Air Conditioner User Manual
To raise the condensing pressure, turn the square adjusting screw counter clockwise to the desired setting.
Function test
Shut down the cooling system first. After 5mins ~ 10mins, the water flow should stop. If the water flow does not stop, it
means the valve setting is improper, or the connection between the pressure sensitive capillary tubes and the
condenser is incorrect.
7.6.9 Replacing The Compressor
� Warning
No direct contact between the refrigerant or lubricant and the skin when replacing the compressor, or serious burning or frostbite
may occur. Put on gloves with long sleeves when processing polluted parts.
The Liebert.PEX system uses the highly reliable Copeland scroll compressor. If handled properly, the failure rate is
extremely low.
It is rare for the motor of the compressor to get burned due to short circuit. In the few cases when the motor does get
burned, the cause is usually mechanical or due to poor lubrication, in other words, due to over-temperature.
If the causes that lead to the compressor failure could be discovered and corrected in time, most failures are avoidable.
The maintenance personnel should check the operation situation periodically and take necessary measures to ensure
the system normal operation. This practice is both easy and cost saving, when you compare it with replacing the
compressor upon faults that result from negligence.
When diagnosing the compressor, check the operation situation of all the electric parts of the compressor.
1. Check all the fuses and circuit breakers.
2. Check the operation of HP and LP switches.
3. When the compressor is faulty, find out the nature of the cause: is it an electrical fault or a mechanical fault?
For mechanical faults
Upon a mechanical fault, there is no burned smell. You should try spinning the motor. If the fault is proved to be
mechanical, the compressor has to be replaced. If the motor is burned, you should remove the fault that leads to the
burning of the motor and clean the system. It must be pointed out that the compressor motor is usually burned
because the system is not cleaned properly.
For electric faults
You can tell an electric fault by the unpleasant smell. If serious burning occurred, the lubricant will appear black and
become acid. When electric fault occurs and the compressor motor is entirely burned, the system must be cleaned to
remove the acid material from the system and to avoid such faults in the future.
� Note
The damage to the compressor components due to improper way of cleaning is classified in the warranty agreement as improper
usage of the product, thus is not covered by the warranty.
When the compressor is entirely burned, you need to replace the filter drier together with the compressor. In addition,
check the expansion valve. If the valve is faulty, replace it too. Before the replacement, you must clean the system. If
you are unsure about the cleaning method, please consult with Emerson service personnel.
Compressor replacing procedures
1. Cut off the power supply.
2. Connect the LP and HP tubes of the pressure gauge to the needle valves of the suction and exhaustion pipes
respectively to recycle the refrigerant.
� Note
The refrigerant must be recycled or disposed in accordance with the local regulations. Discharging the refrigerant into the air is
harmful to the environment and illegal.
3. Disconnect all the electric connection to the compressor.
4. Disconnect the Rotalocks from the exhaust and suction openings on the compressor.
5. Remove the faulty compressor.
74 Chapter 7 System O&M
Liebert.PEX Series Air Conditioner User Manual
6. If the compressor has been entirely burned, you need to clean the pipes of the cooling system and replace the filter
drier.
� Note
Do not remove the rubber covers from the suction opening and exhaust opening of the new compressor too early. The time that
the openings are exposed to the air should not exceed 15mins so as to prevent the compressor refrigeration oil from absorbing
water and bringing the water into the system.
7. Install the new compressor, and connect the pipes and electric cables.
8. Pump the system vacuum and add refrigerant in accordance with the commissioning regulations.
9. Power on the system by following the ordinary startup commissioning procedures and check the system operation
parameters. Observe the refrigerant state through the sight glass, and determine the amount of refrigerant to be added
by considering the system pressure and temperature until the system enters normal operation.
