No, you will need a separate license key from Trane. for the TU unfortunately..

A guy said he was able to get it from Trane in MN for 7k for everything..

Awesome man, I’m glad you got er up and running! Good work man! we have one on binding too. I found this out the hard way the first time too haha it’s a pain when you don’t know, if you have any other video suggestions, let me know! I have a screw chiller video and some more systems stuff as well!

Absolutely brother, should I do more controls breakdowns like these?

@@TheChillerGuys . Yes. Please. Thank you

@@zekenzy6486 will do man! is there something specific, do should i break down a system that your curious about?

@@TheChillerGuys I'm new to chiller, I don't have experience about chiller. I really like troubleshooting , fix, repair , install , replace parts was bad.

@@zekenzy6486 right on man, I am getting more training uploaded to the website soon, and there is some other literature and documents on there as well.

ASHRAE standard is 2.4 on evap, with 3 you’d be golden on pretty much everything as a base. I have seen them add bypass valves, because they usually put too small of a pump on the secondary lol is this common down there, or do you guys have better engineers lol?

@TheChillerGuys it's hit or miss. You get textbook...or someone who pencil whips it. Or if you're really lucky....someone who knows absolutely nothing about flow and has a "great idea"

@@jasonjohnsonHVAC yeah for sure, the typical, "I've been doing this for 97 years, I know everything" response is a classic one lol people are goofy sometimes.

is it vibrating?, or surging?

@@TheChillerGuys It's just a steady groan/grumble...When the load is low...I think it's called stalling...

@@northface484 variable speed? whats the M#

@@TheChillerGuys I will get that...I'm off today...Yes it is VFD....

@@northface484 10-4, let me know

Apparently the fire marshal didn't care lol i purchased that photo so I could have a clean photo for my website, plus I think it looks sick, so i threw it in the intro. its not a daikin, but i thought alot of guys would like it!

probably haha a buddy of mine sent me the video from MN, I made one for him to put on youtube, and he said i can use this one for my stuff 🤙😎

you never know when you may need to build a red neck air supply for your bunker.. knowledge is power lol

Many different types depending on the manufacturer, and the regulations in the area. A lot of Daikin machines in the us use 134a. But it’s best to check the nameplate. Your machine will have the refrigerant type and quantity on the nameplate.

Glad you like it man, appreciate the feedback! Your videos are great too man!

What’s with the angry face lol?

All good?

For sure man, better without the CC’s?

Oh man… that stinks brother, I would agree man. I would add to that and say even if it never had water in it you need to still be cautious. A co worker of mine had a brand new knock down unit from the factory not even piped in yet. He got it assembled, got his vacuum pulled, and dumped in the charge, and froze up the machine. Come to find out the tubes had a little bit of water left in them from the whiteness test at the factory, and he had to retune the machine.. stuff happens man. I appreciate you sharing.

@TheChillerGuys ✌️ it's a pleasure. I managed to plug the tube that cracked with a brass tapered bullet/plug, flushed the system and pulled vacuum and Brock it with nitrogen as many times as I had to until the system was moisture free (the pressure test went fine). 😅then commissioned with 12 eyes wide open.

I can only imagine, what a nightmare.. I use the 2 piece ring and pin style plugs, they seem to work well, never tried the tapered plug. As long as she’s leak free tho man, that’s all that matters 🤙

i got you boo lol

Glad you like it man, we’re going to try and do a lot more of these as time allows!

Nice, you work on some ships, or at a plant or what?

@@TheChillerGuys im working on a District Cooling Plant sir...for 5yrs in a very low salary im hoping to for a better salary atleast..

@@jacobjanineofficial8442 keep working your way up man, it takes time, learn what you can, network, and maybe you can get into working with a company that does service. Service guys will typically earn a little higher salary than an operator. Keep at it brother! No reason why you can’t practice taking readings and checking charge on your machines. You can run through, check your sensors, transducers, and practice the fundamentals.

@@TheChillerGuys thank you sir

@@jacobjanineofficial8442 for sure man, engineering mindset has some stuff, and we are trying to put out more and more as time goes on, but if you download some log sheets, and practice troubleshooting you will be miles ahead man! Good luck with everything, I hope it all works out

@Billyflanagan9657 I’m not going to be running though the config in a video on KZbin, this was from a few years back, I do remember having to go through the config in the old 200 panel, however, I can’t remember every single thing that we did in the controller, but that’s not something I’m going to put on youtube so some guy can fumble around and ruin their machine. Did you see the whole video, she had no flow also, you see how bad the tower was worst one I have seen to date.. these are wonderful machines, but they are murdered a lot unfortunately..

There’s is no setting for chiller to unload on the Series 209 MTech controls. This could potentially make the problem worse by closing the inlet guide vanes and increasing lift across impeller

@@rickmcelwee705 what about the 4 way valve? you can use that to adjust the timing? is that what you mean or no?

@rickmcelwee705 Rick I think you mean decreasing lift across the impellar with the vanes closed.The only way to increase the lift is to get the condenser pressure down and the evaporator temperature at design

No sir! Thankfully she’s running good, and has been running good for the last couple seasons, but just sucks when customers don’t think about getting things taken care of properly

This should be a short, haha I need to get this fixed, just did my first batch of shorts ever, and working out the bugs,

The full video is in the description

agreed. it’s a very tiktok kinda low brow thing to do. i don’t get it either.

I’m half deaf, so cc”s are nice lol but I can cut them for future videos if they are a pain in the rear? Do you think any cc’s are good?

@@princesswalt4010 you think pull the cc’s all together?

@@TheChillerGuys I don’t know how the cc is generated in KZbin, but there is the cc button you hit to get cc when you need it (when it’s available). My suggestion is to investigate that option so that its available for hearing impaired folks. I work in the video industry, and cc is metadata that is part of the video, you just need a tv to superimpose it… kind of like the cc button in KZbin. And keep up the good work with the videos! Chillers a fun!

@@princesswalt4010 A few people said they don't like them, so I will be pulling them from the future videos. I have done some with, and some without, and I plan on keeping them OUT in all future videos. Its actually more work to add them, because I edit them and add them manually when I am editing the videos, So pulling them out actually makes things easier on my end. I am Fairly new to the video work, and I am Still learning how to put things together in a way that is the most helpful for everyone. I am a chiller mechanic by trade, and I am trying to learn how to do the video thing as time goes on, but I don't know anyone that does it for a living to bounce ideas off of, or tell me when something is a bad idea. Would you be willing to shoot me an email, and let me pick your brain a little on how I can make things better for the guys? I am not sure if there is a project I can help you with in return, but if I can help you in any way I will. My Email is on my channel, otherwise if youtube doesn't pull it from this comment, its: [email protected] If your too busy, I get it, just figured id ask the question, I am always trying to learn more. Thanks for all of the feedback, its really helpful, and thanks tuning in man! have a great rest of your week!

Your profile photo is hilarious lmao

For sure man, the worst I have ever seen to this day

For sure man

For sure brother, keep up the good work with your channel too!

Because they hire cheap inexperienced maintenance guys to handle stuff.

I agree, and they want to save $1 to get 50% off 5x the price lol

If I were you, I would start with the following: Shut the pump off, check all of the water strainers on the loop make sure they are all clean, check all of the tower nozzles, make sure they aren't plugged up, make sure your tower fill is working, and that the level is set properly, make sure the condenser vessel, pumps, and piping is bled, and actually has water getting there. double check all of the isolation valves, and make sure no one left something closed from a winter service. make sure your pump is rotating the correct direction. Its likely one of the issues above, if this doesn't work, then explain the piping configuration a little more. for example: "goes from the cooling tower to the pump to the chiller then back out to the tower spray nozzles." let me know if there are any control valves, or anything else in the loop. also, is this a new or existing problem? are you tripping on flow at startup, or high head pressure?

@@TheChillerGuys pipe goes from cooling tower - swing valve - 90 valve - y strainer - pump case volute - 90 valve - INtake condenser centrifugal type Trane - and pipe goes OUT all of way back on top of Cooling tower. Strainer were clean, nozzle on top of tower is ok, swing valve also free of any blockage, I removed air from a pipe that goes before pump. But on a way after pump volute to condenser IN I’m not sure if I correctly bled air. Closed 90 valve (after pump) at same time another 90 valve before pump is fully open, started pump and it’s started making a pressure up to 50 psi, I opened one bolt on a pump so air in volute can escape, and opened half way valve on condenser, after that I slowly opened 90 valve on 10 percent, pressure started dropping to 20 psi and after some time gauge is showing 5-10 psi, meaning that pump not making any pressure. I think problem might be in bleeding after pump to condenser.

​@@user-fh4uq1bj9o No, typically the pump would push almost all of the air out of the condenser in that configuration. it sounds like the pump inlet isnt getting a solid column of water. is your tower fill running? is the tower located above the condenser pump, or below?

@@TheChillerGuys Pump is above a tower. Tower full of water, and after I started pump it should take a water continuously from tower thru swing valve to pump intake, but instead it seems like pipe becomes empty after 15 seconds ( on its way where it’s equal top level of tower to pump intake). It didn’t pull a water from tower, and tower started to overflow on ground. I’ve repeated process filling water in pipe, removing air, starting pump, and it’s shows same thing over and over (cooling tower overfilled, and pipe hollow on its way from tower water line to pump intake. Even though I’ve checked possible blockage in pipe, swing valve looks normal and operational, it’s still possible that something blocking water from getting to pump intake. Good to know that this type of system will bled the air from pump to condenser on its own, as long as pump inlet will have solid column of water.

​@@user-fh4uq1bj9o correct, with your pump located higher than the tower, to me it sounds like you just don't have a solid column of water to the pump intake. Are you able to isolate the piping from the tower and backfill the pump and the rest of the system with a garden hose, vent every bit of air you can, then try and start the pump, and open the inlet valve at the same time? If you can get a few ft of water moving, the weight of the water will sometimes be enough to push the little bit of air in the piping out and keep your pump primed. i have had jobs like this where the check valve is bad, or the pump is doing too much lift. See if you can get it online doing what i mentioned above, if that works, then test the check valve by shutting it down, you should not loose your prime, and when you shut it down, water should not be flowing back to the tower, otherwise the check valve is probably seized, or it has debris in it, holding it open. If your still having issues, shoot me an email, with a hand drawn photo of the system piping, and I can try and help you out more, I don't think its possible to send photos in the youtube comments. let me know man

Nice Man, I’m old school, I have had issues with 2 testo sets, and the thermometers, so I stick with analog gauges, and a copper thermometer if it’s critical. Some of the testo thermometers I have had were 1-4 degrees off, and I’m paranoid lol is there any way to calibrate them?

For sure brother, thanks for watching

? What do you mean?

I appreciate the feedback man! Let me know if there is something I can do to communicate better!

hard to find good help lol I will have to edit it at some point here.
