5Pumped Refrigerant System Operation and Maintenance
Mechanical Inspection Checklist
The mechanical inspection verifies that all mechanical components and connections are secure and tight
and ready for start-up and system charging.
Note: Improperly installed piping may result in improper operation and possible damage to
the cooling unit or surrounding equipment.
of
Ensure that the:
5
Chilled water pipe fittings are tight, and have been leak checked. Leak check pressure can not exceed 300 psi
(2068 kpa).
5
Air is bled from the water system. If air remains in the system, bleed it out now.
5
Mechanical connections are tight.
5
Supply chilled water temperature is recorded.
5
Chilled water flow is correct based on the performance requirements of the RDU.
5
Field-installed traps and piping are in accordance with the installation manual. Strainers are in place in the
chilled water supply loop. Proper piping practices have been followed.
5
Piping is adequately supported and isolated when necessary.
5
Field-installed service valves are open.
5
Water outlet temperature sensor is positioned correctly. See the installation manual for correct positioning.
5
Piping in the building and on the roof is properly insulated.
5
Pumped refrigerant piping joints are tight, and have been leak checked. Leak check pressure can not exceed
150 psi (1034 kpa).
5
Pressure relief valve is installed in accordance with the installation manual as well as local and national codes
and regulations.
5
Refrigerant lines have been evacuated to ensure foreign particles have been removed from the system.
Evacuation level must be at a minimum 500 microns for 2 hours.
5
All piping (chilled water and refrigerant vapor) is properly insulated.
5
Covers and guards are in place.
