INTRODUCTION

This manual is designed to provide essential information for installation, operation and
maintenance of Dunham-Bush medium screw compressor flooded water cooled package
chiller(s).
Dunham-Bush equipments are manufactured under careful quality control and performance
pretested at specific filed operating conditions to ensure reliability and performance.
When Installed, operated and maintained with care and attention, your investment will give
many years of satisfactory service. It is assumed that the user(s) of this manual is(are)
experienced and qualified air conditioning equipment personnel and have read this manual and
fully understood the contents before commencing with installation / operating or maintenance
work on the equipment.

SAFETY CONSIDERATION & PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

(PPE)
When working with chiller(s) there is always a risk of exposure to electrical / mechanical or
chemical hazards during installation and service work.
The right Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) should always be used during installation,
repair or service work. Reference should be made to appropriate Material Safety Data Sheets
(MSDS) and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) guidelines for PPE.
Refrigerant are classified as hazardous chemical, reference should be made to MSDS and
OSHA guidelines for proper PPE when handling refrigerant. Refrigerant should be handle,
reclaimed, recovered and recycled in accordance to The Federal Clean Air Act.

Personal safety and the safety of others should never be compromised. Failure to follow
recommendations could result in death or serious injuries.
