Liebert PDX and Liebert PCW Configurations

1.0 LIEBERT PDX AND LIEBERT PCW CONFIGURATIONS

1.1 COOLING CONFIGURATIONS

AIR-COOLED
Air-cooled unit piping is
spun closed from the factory
and contains a nitrogen
holding charge. Each
installation requires field-
supplied refrigerant and
piping to a condenser.

GLYCOL-COOLED
Glycol-cooled units are factory-charged and tested.
Field-supplied and field-installed piping is required
from the unit to the drycooler and pump package.

GLYCOOL-INTEGRATED FLUID ECONOMIZER


GLYCOOL units are factory-charged and tested. Field-supplied
and field-installed piping is required from the unit to the
drycooler and pump package. An additional Liebert Economizer
coil is included for use when fluid temperatures are sufficiently
low (below room temperature). Economizer cooling is provided
by circulating cold glycol through this second coil, reducing or
WATER-COOLED
eliminating compressor operation.
Water-cooled units are factory-charged and
tested. Field-supplied and field-installed
water piping is required from the unit to the
cooling tower.

DUAL-COOL
This system has all of the features of a compressorized
system, but adds a second cooling coil that is connected
to a source of chilled water. Cooling is provided by
circulating chilled water, when available, through this
second coil and reducing compressor operation.

Weights are based on units with EC fans, units with AC fans may be slightly less.
Net and packaged weights will increase with factory options: legs taller than 18", coated coils and seismic options. Field-installed
receivers also add to net weights. Consult factory for additional information. See Table 13 for weight added by longer legs.

Expansion Tank- (P/N 1C16717P1)
This tank, included in a standard pump package, has an internal volume of 8.8 gal. (33 l) and a
maximum pressure of 100 psi (690 kPa).
This tank is sized for a typical open system with a fluid volume of less than 75 gal. (280l). When
used in a closed system, volumes of up to 140 gal. (530 l) can be accommodated. The use of a safety
relief valve, field supplied, is recommended for systems closed to atmospheric venting. Other piping
accessories for filling, venting, or adjusting the fluid in the system, are recommended, but not
included.

2.13 LIEBERT ICOM CONTROL METHODS AND OPTIONS


Controlling Sensor Options: Liebert iCOM shall be flexible in the sense that it allows for
controlling the capacity and fan from multiple different sensor selections. The sensor selections shall
be:
Cooling Capacity:
Supply
Remote
Return
Fan Speed:
Supply
Remote
Return
Manual (for diagnostic or to receive a signal from the BMS through the IS-UNITY-DP card)
Teamwork Modes of Operation: Liebert iCOM teamwork shall save energy by preventing
operation of multiple units in opposing modes. The thee modes of teamwork operation are:
Teamwork Mode 1: This mode allows the control to optimize a group of cooling units equipped
with Liebert iCOMs using the U2U. The capacity and fan operations is coupled together in this
mode.
Teamwork Mode 2: This mode allows the control to optimize a group of cooling units equipped
with Liebert iCOMs using the U2U. The capacity and fan operations is decoupled in this mode,
meaning the fan and cooling ramp and respond to the thermal load based on its controlling
sensors.
Optimized Aisle - Teamwork Mode 3: This mode allows the control to optimize a group of
connected cooling units equipped with Liebert iCOMs using the U2U. The capacity and fan
operations is decoupled in this mode, meaning the fan and cooling ramp and respond to the
thermal load based on its controlling sensors. When using Optimized Aisle, the fans can be
controlled by using static pressure (DP or static) with a secondary remote temperature sensor as
an override to ensure the inlet rack temperature is being met.
Temperature Compensation: Liebert iCOM allows the ability to compensate the supply and return
set points to maintain cooling OR return temperatures to meet cooling needs or Service Level
Agreement (SLA) guidelines.
Dew Point Control: Liebert iCOM shall be able to control the humidity based on dew point to
ensure accurate humidity control. This method will eliminate the need to dehumidify or humidify
based on the air temperature when looking at moisture content.
Virtual Back-Draft Damper: Liebert iCOM allows for the use of a virtual back-draft damper -
eliminating the need for a mechanical damper. This allows the EC fan to spin at a low speed (15%) to
act as a damper.
Cascade: Liebert iCOM cascade option shall allow the units to turn On and Off based on heat load
when in Teamwork Mode 1. When utilizing Optimized Aisle, Teamwork Mode 3, the cascading shall
become more dynamic as the units coordinate the fan speed to save energy and to meet the cooling
demands. For instance, with a group of six cooling units equipped with Liebert iCOMs and only 50%
of the heat load, the Liebert iCOM shall operate only four units at 80% fan speed and leave the other
two units in standby/cascade. As the heat load increases, the Liebert iCOM shall automatically
respond to the new load and bring on the fifth unit. As the heat load shifts up or down, the control
shall meet the needs by cascading units On or putting them into standby.
Virtual Master: The Liebert iCOM control shall allow for a virtual master that coordinates
operation. If for any reason the virtual master becomes disconnected, the control shall shift
responsibility to the next unit in the group.
Remote 2T Sensor Sharing: Each Liebert PDX/PCW unit can connect up to ten 2T sensors. The
2T sensors can be used as a controlling sensor or reference sensor. As part of the U2U network and
teamwork, those sensors can be shared and used to control the units and provide greater flexibility,
visibility and control using that to respond to changes in the data center. The 2T sensors can be set to
a minimum or maximum or average temperature control.

___ volt, 3-phase, ___ Hz.
Dual Pump Package
The dual pump package shall include pumps, enclosure, and field-mounted flow switch. The standby
pump shall automatically start up on failure of the lead pump by drycooler pump controls or by a
separate factory-wired control box and shall include a lead/ lag switch for the pumps. Each pump
shall be rated for _______ GPM (___ l/s) at ___ ft. (___ kPa) of head.
2.34.5.4 Ancillary Items
Expansion Tanks, Fluid Relief Valves, Air Management and Other Devices
An expansion tank shall be provided for expansion and contraction of the glycol fluid due to
temperature change in the closed system. The tank and air vents shall be field-installed at the
system's highest elevation to allow venting of trapped air. A fluid pressure relief valve shall be
provided for system safety. The system shall include (tank-steel [expansion, compression, diaphragm,
bladder], air separator, air vent, fluid pressure relief valve, pressure gauges, flow switches, tempering
valves, [primary, primary and standby] pumps, supply and return piping).
