INTRODUCTION  
The minimum load control accessory allows 30HX and  
30GX chillers to have their capacities decreased below the  
standard fully unloaded condition. The accessory provides  
more precise control of leaving fluid temperature during light  
load conditions.  
The 30GX and 30HX chillers have a dual-circuit design.  
Each minimum load control accessory package contains the  
items required for both circuits. Because of an automatic lead/  
lag feature on the chillers, the accessory should be installed  
on both circuits.

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS  
INSTALLATION  
Installing, starting up, and servicing air-conditioning equip-  
ment can be hazardous due to system pressures, electrical  
components, and equipment location.  
Only trained, qualified installers and service technicians  
should install, start up, and service this equipment.  
When working on air-conditioning equipment, observe pre-  
cautions in the literature and on tags, stickers, and labels at-  
tached to the equipment.  
Step 1 — Examine Package Contents — Pack-  
age includes solenoid valves, ball valves, Swagelokcon-  
nectors, and instructions. The kit for 30GX units also con-  
tains a junction box, junction box cover, and conduit. Examine  
each item. If any part is damaged or missing, file a claim  
immediately with the shipper. See Table 1 for accessory pack-  
age contents and field-supplied material.

cause leaks.  
piping practice, braze ball valve and solenoid valve into

8-in. minimum load piping. Fig. 2 shows a typical 30HX  
installation and Fig. 3 shows a typical 30GX installation, in-  
cluding valve locations and orientation. Ensure that ball valve  
is fully open, and that both the ball and solenoid valve are  
protected from excess heat during brazing process. Wrap wet  
cloths around valve bodies during brazing to prevent dam-  
age to the valves from heat.  
30GX UNITS ONLY — Using good brazing practice, braze  
the 58-in. minimum load tubing to the copper nipple on the  
discharge line (minimum load port) between the condenser  
coil and oil separator. See Fig. 1 and 3.  
IMPORTANT: When installing solenoid valve, make  
sure that flow direction arrow on valve body points  
towards the cooler. The minimum load control will not  
function correctly if this valve is installed backwards.  
Step 3 — Dehydrate and Recharge Circuit  
When piping has been completed, leak test the assem-  
bly. If one of the Swagelok fittings leaks, slowly tighten the  
compression nut until the leak stops. If this does not fix the  
leak, the connection must be reinstalled using a new ferrule  
and backup ring in the fitting. Contact your Carrier repre-  
sentative for assistance in locating these parts.  
After leak testing, evacuate, dehydrate, and recharge the  
circuit using an approved refrigerant recovery device. Cor-  
rect type and amount of refrigerant are listed on unit name-  
plate and in base unit documentation.  
CONNECT PIPING — Check the ends of the tubes where  
they will be inserted into the Swagelokfittings. To avoid  
leaks, tube ends must be round and free of burrs, nicks, and  
grooves.  
Insert tube ends into fittings as far as they will go. When  
tube bottoms out, tighten the compression nut finger-tight  
while holding the fitting body. Use backup wrench to hold  
fitting body and tighten compression nut another 114 turns.

30GX UNITS — Install the accessory junction box included  
Step 4 — Install Control Wiring  
with this kit in the position shown on the 30GX chiller in  
Fig. 3. Route the waterproof conduit included with this kit  
between the accessory junction box and the factory-installed  
junction box. See Fig. 3 and 4. Route field-supplied conduits  
from the solenoid valves to the accessory junction box.  
Be sure all power to the unit is off before proceeding.  
Lock out and safety-tag all disconnects.  
ALL UNITS — Using good wiring practice, connect a white  
wire from the solenoid valve on circuit A to a white wire  
from the solenoid valve on circuit B. Connect both wires to  
the white wire in the factory-installed junction box (30GX),  
or unit wiring harness labelled ‘‘MLC-A& B(30HXA, HXC).  
Connect a pink wire from the solenoid valve on circuit A  
to the pink wire in the factory-installed junction box (30GX),  
or unit wiring harness labelled MLC-A (30HXA, HXC).  
Connect a gray wire from the solenoid valve on circuit B  
to the gray wire in the factory-installed junction box (30GX),  
or unit wiring harness labelled MLC-B (30HXA, HXC).  
Figure 4 shows the correct wiring for the minimum load  
control and the location of the wiring connection points on  
the chiller.  
Wires between field-installed components and unit control  
box must be enclosed in field-supplied conduit. Follow all  
local codes and NEC (National Electrical Code, U.S.A.). Wire  
size must be no. 16 AWG (American Wire Gage) (1.5 mm2)  
minimum. See Fig. 4 for field wiring.  
30HX UNITS — Remove the screws holding the right-side  
access panel to the unit control box. Remove the right-side  
access panel and store in a safe area.  
Route wires through field-supplied conduit and attach the  
conduit to the unit control box, using a suitable conduit fit-  
7
ting and one of the available 8-in. knockout openings. At-  
tach the other end of the conduit to the solenoid valve, using  
a suitable fitting. Repeat for the other circuit.

8. Press  
for Circuit A.  
to turn off the minimum load valve relay  
trol — Once the piping installation and wiring installation  
are complete, the chiller must be configured for minimum  
load control operation. This may be done using the unit key-  
pad (HSIO-2). Set the LOCAL/OFF switch in the OFF  
position.  
To check the operation of the solenoid valve on Circuit B,  
follow the same procedure as the preceding, but enter  
enter  
in Step 1, instead of

screens will be for Circuit B instead of A.  
1. Press  
on the keypad.  
2. Press the down arrow  
until the display reads:  
After testing is complete, recheck all electrical connec-  
tions for proper location and tightness. For 30HX units, re-  
place and secure the access panels for the unit control box.  
For 30GX units, secure the junction box covers to the junc-  
tion boxes.

2. Operate the chiller in Manual Control mode, with one cir-  
cuit operating, and all compressor loaders deenergized.  
NOTE: Operation of the chiller in Manual Control mode is  
described in the Controls, Start-Up, Operation, and Trouble-  
shooting Guide that is included with the 30GX,HX  
Ecologic™ chillers.  
3. Record the cooler T (the difference between cooler en-  
tering fluid temperature and cooler leaving fluid tempera-  
ture) at this fully unloaded condition.

The chiller is now configured for minimum load valve  
control.  
4. Use the Manual Control feature to enable the minimum  
load valve for the circuit that is operating.  
Step 6 — Test Minimum Load Relay Outputs  
After the accessory components are installed and the unit  
is recharged and reconfigured, test the operation of the relay  
and solenoid valve using the Quick Test software function.  
Test Circuit A as follows (the LOCAL/OFF switch must be  
in the OFF position):  
5. Observe and record the cooler T with the minimum load  
valve energized.  
6. Adjust the minimum load ball valve until the cooler tem-  
perature difference reading from Step 5 is equal to half of  
the temperature difference reading from Step 3.  
1. Press  
on the HSIO-2 keypad.  
7. Open the ball valve to decrease the temperature differ-  
ence or close the ball valve to increase the temperature  
difference (T). When the valve is adjusted correctly,  
the difference between cooler entering and leaving fluid  
temperatures when the minimum load control is ener-  
gized must be at least half of the temperature difference  
when the minimum load control is deenergized. For ex-  
ample, if the difference between the cooler entering and  
leaving water temperature is 3° F with the valve deen-  
ergized, then the difference between cooler entering and  
leaving water temperature must be at least 1.5° F with the  
valve energized.  
2. Press the down arrow  
until the display reads:  
MIN. LOAD VALVE A  
RELAY IS OFF  
3. Press

6. The HSIO-2 again displays the following:  
Once the outputs have been tested and the ball valve ad-  
justed, the installation is complete.  
MIN. LOAD VALVE A  
RELAY IS OFF  
7. Press  
to energize the relay. The display reads:  
MIN. LOAD VALVE A  
RELAY IS ON  
An audible click will be heard. Verify that the solenoid  
valve for Circuit A is energized.
