1.1 General description of the unit
The YLCA/YLHA units are high-performance air-water chillers and heat pumps using R-410A ecological
coolant.
These units are designed for air conditioning or industrial applications that require cold or hot water.
They are silent and compact units, equipped with vertical air discharge axial fans, that can be installed
directly outdoors.
They are available in two versions: with and without a hydro kit, which includes a buffer tank and a high
head pressure pump.
The control system of these units is a specially programmed electronic controller to be used on air-water
coolers and heat pumps equipped with tandem compressors. Easy to use and safe, these units precision
control the water return temperature of the installation, carry out defrost cycles, modulate fan speeds
and control compressor, pump and electric heater start-up. By reading the control probes and safety
elements, the controller protects the entire equipment against malfunctions. The system allows
connecting the unit to a standard RS-485 monitoring network.
For further information, please see Operating Instructions.
The YLCA/YLHA units are made of proven quality components and manufactured in compliance with
standards in force (ISO 9001 certification).

1.1.2 Technical specifications
These units are supplied completely factory-assembled and with all coolant tubing and wiring ready for
installation on site. After mounting, these units must go through an operational test with water. Coolant
leaks will also be checked during this process.
Sheeting cover
The units are made of galvanized steel sheeting and anticorrosion nuts and bolts. Panels can be removed
for access to internal components. The casing parts are painted with white RAL9001 oven-baked
polymerized enamel.
Compressors
One, two or four hermetic Scroll compressors are used, mounted in tandem on rails and antivibratory
supports. The compressors are connected for operation with one single cooling circuit. Start-up is carried
out by two independent starters. These compressors are equipped with mechanical elements that protect
them against high operating temperatures. The sump heaters operate only when the compressor is
inoperative.
Water-side exchanger
Comprises a stainless steel plate exchanger, adequately insulated by a layer of closed-cell elastomer
foam. Includes an antifreeze heater monitored by the controller. The coolant side of said exchanger
accepts an operating pressure of 45 bar, whereas the water side accepts 10 bar. When the unit includes
a hydro kit, maximum admissible pressure on the water side is 6 bar (adjustment of the tank safety valve).
Air-side exchanger
Made up of two notched aluminium blue fin coils and grooved copper tubing mechanically expanded
within the fin assembly.
Fans
Of the axial and low sound level type. Equipped with single-phase motors with IP54 protection. These
motors allow speed control by means of a phase cut-out shifter controlled by the unit controller. This
allows unit operation at low ambient temperatures (-10°C). On cool only units with an optional low ambient
temperature kit can reach ‑18°C. On heat pumps, the fan will remain inoperative during defrosting.
Electrical and control panel
Located at the front of the unit, and with IP44 protection. The operating and control components are
factory mounted, wired and tested. The door of this control panel is equipped with a locking isolator that
turns power supply off. Inside we find the contactors for compressors and the pump, the transformer,
magneto-thermal protectors, controller electronic plates, speed control, connecting strip and the
keyboard-display with the unit controls.
Control keyboard-display
This device is accessible through an external leak-tight plastic cover. This is an easy-to-use control with
three access levels: direct, user (password) and factory (password). For further information, please see
Operating Instructions.
Cooling circuit
The cool only unit cooling circuit includes: expansion valve, filter-dryer, liquid sight glass, high and low-
pressure switches, service valves for isolating the condensing unit, and Schrader valves on the high and
low sides. The heat pump model also includes, in addition, a four-way valve (energized in summer cycle
and during defrosts), retaining valves, a heat cycle expansion valve and a liquid tank. The suction tubing
is coated with closed-cell elastomer.

Hydro kit (pack)
These units include a pack assembled with the components of a hydro kit. This assembly is located within
the unit frame and does not increase the footprint of same. It includes the following components: Lined
buffer tank and with an antifreeze heater, centrifugal pump, expansion vessel charged with nitrogen at
1.5 bar, safety valve set to 6 bar, water circuit, pressure gauge, two air bleed valves, filling valve and
drain valve. Also includes a mesh filter for the water circuit. This filter is supplied loose for installation at
the most convenient point.
Flow switch
Assures sufficient water flow when the unit is in operation.
Options and accessories
Units without hydro kit
This includes the elements described in the previously mentioned specifications, less the hydro kit (pack).
The water circuit includes an air bleed valve. Connections are ready for on-site installation.
Two pumps
Accessory available with models 50 to 150 with hydro kit. The second pump becomes operative when
the thermal magnetic switch protector of the first pump is activated (models 50, 60 and 80), or through
the controller program (models 100, 120 and 150).
Water filter
Supplied as a standard element on units including the hydro kit. Stainless steel mesh with 1 mm. diameter
perforations. Optional on units not including the hydro kit. The warranty of the unit will not be valid if a
water filter has not been installed.
Remote control
Wall-mounted remote control unit with keyboard for cool/heat and ON/OFF functions. Includes LEDs for
power supply, alarm and cool/heat. Maximum cable length: 50 m.
Remote terminal
For total access and control of the system by means of the display and buttons. It allows for selection of
cool, heat and off functions. Operating parameters can also be modified and the system can also be
supervised. Can be installed at a maximum distance of 1040 m.
BMS connections
With a serial board it is possible to connect the system to a standard RS-485 monitoring network.
Low sound level units (LN)
Include anti-noise covers mounted on the compressors and sound isolating plates, covering the
compressor chamber.
Gentle starter
For the soft motor start. Specially designed for Scroll compressors. (Maximum outdoor temperature: 50
°C).
Protecting grids
To protect the coils from possible impacts. Made of steel rods and painted with oven baked polymerized
white enamel (RAL9001).

Antivibration supports
Whenever necessary to reduce vibrations and noise
produced by the unit to a maximum, a set of steel
spring antivibratory supports can be used. These
should be installed between the chassis support of the
unit and the base or floor on which it is to sit.
This base must be solid and dimensioned in
accordance with the load to be supported.
The antivibratory support accessory for models
YLCA/YLHA 40, 50 and 60 includes 4 units, whereas
for models YLCA/YLHA 80, 100, 120 and 150
includes 6.
These spring supports should be distributed and
fastened in the drilled holes at the base of the cooler,
the location of which is detailed in the General
Dimensions section.

1.1.3 Operating instructions µC3 (YLCA / YLHA 100, 120 and 150)
This is a specially programmed controller for air-water coolers and heat pumps with four capacity stages.
These are divided into two independent cooling circuits equipped with two tandems that act upon a
common water circuit. Both systems are equipped with two fans each, the speed of which is controlled
by pressure sensors. The controller operates through the following intakes and outlets.
