NOTICE
Risk of water leakage. Can cause severe property damage and loss of critical data center
equipment.
This unit requires a water drain connection. It may require an external water supply to
operate the humidifier. Improper installation, application and service practices can result in
water leakage from the unit.
Do not locate the Liebert CRV directly above any equipment that could sustain water damage.
Emerson recommends installing monitored leak detection equipment for the unit and supply
lines.
NOTICE
Risk of frozen fluids. Can cause equipment damage and building damage.
Freezing system fluids can rupture piping. Complete system drain-down cannot be ensured.
When the field piping or unit may be exposed to freezing temperatures, charge the system
with the proper percentage of glycol and water for the coldest design ambient.
Automotive antifreeze is unacceptable and must NOT be used in any glycol fluid system.
NOTICE
Risk of corrosion. Can cause equipment damage.
Read and follow individual unit installation instructions for precautions regarding fluid
system design, material selection and use of field-provided devices. Liebert systems contain
iron and copper alloys that require appropriate corrosion protection.
Contact a local water consultant regarding water quality, corrosion and freeze protection
requirements.
Water chemistry varies greatly by location, as do the required additives, called inhibitors,
that reduce the corrosive effect of the fluids on the piping systems and components. The
chemistry of the water used must be considered, because water from some sources may
contain corrosive elements that reduce the effectiveness of the inhibited formulation.
Sediment deposits prevent the formation of a protective oxide layer on the inside of the
coolant system components and piping. The water/coolant fluid must be treated and
circulating through the system continuously to prevent the buildup of sediment deposits and
or growth of sulfate reducing bacteria.
Preferably, surface waters that are classified as soft and are low in chloride and sulfate ion
content should be employed. Proper inhibitor maintenance must be performed in order to
prevent corrosion of the system. Consult glycol manufacturer for testing and maintenance of
inhibitors.
Commercial ethylene glycol (Union Carbide Ucartherm, Dow Chemical Dowtherm SR-1 and
Texaco E.G. Heat Transfer Fluid 100), when pure, is generally less corrosive to the common
metals of construction than water itself. It will, however, assume the corrosivity of the water
from which it is prepared and may become increasingly corrosive with use if not properly
inhibited.
NOTICE
Risk of no-flow condition. Can cause equipment damage.
Do not leave the unit in a no-flow condition. Idle fluid allows the collection of sediment that
prevents the formation of a protective oxide layer on the inside of tubes. Keep unit switched
On and system pump operating.
NOTE
The Liebert indoor cooling unit has a factory-installed high pressure safety switch in the high
side refrigerant circuit. A pressure relief valve is provided with Liebert Lee-Temp condensers.
Consult your local building code to determine if the Liebert VFD condensers will require
field-provided pressure-relief devices. A fusible plug kit for Liebert VFD condensers is available
for field installation.

Piping
Liebert® CRV14
5.0 PIPING
All fluid and refrigeration connections to the unit, with the exception of the condensate drain, are
sweat copper. Factory-installed piping brackets must not be removed. Field-installed piping must be
installed in accordance with local codes and must be properly assembled, supported, isolated and
insulated. Avoid piping runs through noise-sensitive areas, such as office walls and conference rooms.
Refer to specific text and detailed diagrams in this manual for other unit-specific piping
requirements.
All piping below the elevated floor must be arranged so that it offers the least resistance to airflow.
Careful planning of the piping layout under the raised floor is required to prevent the airflow from
being blocked. When installing piping on the subfloor, Emerson recommends installing the pipes in a
horizontal plane rather than stacked one above the other. Whenever possible, the pipes should be run
parallel to the airflow.
5.1 Fluid Connections
NOTICE
Risk of water leakage. Can cause severe property damage and loss of critical data center
equipment.
This unit requires a water drain connection. It may require an external water supply to
operate the humidifier. Improper installation, application and service practices can result in
water leakage from the unit.
Do not locate the Liebert CRV directly above any equipment that could sustain water damage.
Emerson recommends installing monitored leak detection equipment for the unit and supply
lines.

5.1.3 Requirements of Systems Using Water or Glycol
These guidelines apply to the field leak checking and fluid requirements for field piping systems,
including Liebert chilled water, condenser (water or glycol) and drycooler circuits.
General Guidelines
Equipment damage and personal injury can result from improper piping installation, leak check-
ing, fluid chemistry and fluid maintenance.
Follow local piping codes, safety codes.
Qualified personnel must install and inspect system piping.
Contact a local water consultant regarding water quality, corrosion protection and freeze protec-
tion requirements.
Install manual shutoff valves at the supply and return line to each indoor unit and drycooler to
permit routine service and emergency isolation of the unit.
NOTICE
Risk of frozen fluids. Can cause equipment damage and building damage.
Freezing system fluids can rupture piping. Complete system drain-down cannot be ensured.
When the field piping or unit may be exposed to freezing temperatures, charge the system
with the proper percentage of glycol and water for the coldest design ambient.
Automotive antifreeze is unacceptable and must NOT be used in any glycol fluid system.
NOTICE
Risk of corrosion. Can cause equipment damage.
Read and follow individual unit installation instructions for precautions regarding fluid
system design, material selection and use of field-provided devices. Liebert systems contain
iron and copper alloys that require appropriate corrosion protection.
Contact a local water consultant regarding water quality, corrosion and freeze protection
requirements.
Water chemistry varies greatly by location, as do the required additives, called inhibitors,
that reduce the corrosive effect of the fluids on the piping systems and components. The
chemistry of the water used must be considered, because water from some sources may
contain corrosive elements that reduce the effectiveness of the inhibited formulation.
Sediment deposits prevent the formation of a protective oxide layer on the inside of the
coolant system components and piping. The water/coolant fluid must be treated and
circulating through the system continuously to prevent the build up of sediment deposits and
or growth of sulfate reducing bacteria.
Preferably, surface waters that are classified as soft and are low in chloride and sulfate ion
content should be employed. Proper inhibitor maintenance must be performed in order to
prevent corrosion of the system. Consult glycol manufacturer for testing and maintenance of
inhibitors.
Commercial ethylene glycol (Union Carbide Ucartherm, Dow Chemical Dowtherm SR-1 and
Texaco E.G. Heat Transfer Fluid 100), when pure, is generally less corrosive to the common
metals of construction than water itself. It will, however, assume the corrosivity of the water
from which it is prepared and may become increasingly corrosive with use if not properly
inhibited.
NOTICE
Risk of no-flow condition. Can cause equipment damage.
Do not leave the unit in a no-flow condition.
Idle fluid allows the collection of sediment that prevents the formation of a protective oxide
layer on the inside of tubes. Keep unit switched ON and system pump operating.

Leak Checking of Unit and Field Piping
Liebert unit fluid systems are factory-checked for leaks and may be shipped with a nitrogen holding
charge. Liebert unit fluid circuits should be checked for leaks at installation as described below.
NOTE
During leak checking of field-installed piping, Emerson recommends that the unit be isolated
using field-installed shutoff valves. When the Liebert units are included in a leak test, use of
fluid for pressure testing is recommended. When pressurized gas is used for leak testing the
Liebert unit, the maximum recommended pressure is 30 psig (2 bars) and tightness of the unit
should be verified by pressure decay over time, (<2 psig/hour [0.3 bars/hour]) or sensing a
tracer gas with suitable instrumentation. Dry seals in fluid valves and pumps may not hold a
high gas pressure.
Refrigerant Connections
Liebert® CRV18
6.0 REFRIGERANT CONNECTIONS
NOTICE
Risk of oil contamination with water. Can cause equipment damage.
The piping must not be open to the atmosphere for extended periods because the Liebert CRV
requires POE (polyol ester) oil. POE oil absorbs water at a much faster rate when exposed to
air than previously used oils. Because water is the enemy of a reliable refrigeration system,
extreme care must be used when opening systems during installation or service. If water is
absorbed into the POE oil, it will not be easily removed and will not be removed through the
normal evacuation process. If the oil is too wet, it may require an oil change. POE oils also
have a property that makes them act as a solvent in a refrigeration system. Maintaining
system cleanliness is extremely important because the oil will tend to bring any foreign
matter back to the compressor.
The Liebert CRV can be connected to a condenser through either the top or bottom of the unit. The
unit is piped for connections at the top of the unit as shown in Figure 14, with provision for
connection through the bottom of the unit.
Connecting through the bottom of the unit requires cutting the liquid and suction lines as shown in
Figure 15. Cutting these lines disconnects the top connections from the rest of the refrigeration system.
Air-cooled units are shipped with a holding charge of nitrogen.
!
WARNING
Risk of explosive discharge from high-pressure refrigerant. Can cause injury or death.
This unit contains fluids and/or gases under high pressure.
Relieve pressure before working with piping.
!
WARNING
Risk of refrigerant system rupture or explosion from overpressurization. Can cause
equipment damage, injury and death.
A pressure relief valve is required for compliance with the EU Pressure Equipment
Directive and may be required for compliance with local codes. If a discharge pressure relief
device is not provided with the condenser unit, the system installer must install one in the
high side of the refrigerant circuit and rated for a maximum of:
675psig (46.5bar) for water/glycol-cooled units
700psig (48.3bar) for air-cooled units
A shutoff valve must not be installed between the compressor and the field-installed relief
valve.
One or more additional pressure relief valves are required downstream of any and all
field-installed isolation. Do not isolate any refrigerant circuits from overpressurization
protection.

6.1 Piping Guidelines—Air-Cooled Units
Indoor unit ships with a nitrogen holding charge; do not vent the evaporator until all refrigerant
piping is in place, ready for connection to the unit and condenser
Use copper piping with high temperature brazed joints
Isolate piping from building using vibration-isolating supports
Refer to Tables 7 through 10 for piping sizes
Refer to condenser installation manual for charging information
Install traps on hot gas (discharge) lines at the base of vertical risers and every 15 feet (4.6m) of
vertical rise.
See Table 6 for the allowable elevation difference between the condenser and the Liebert CRV.
Consult factory if piping run exceeds 300 feet (91m) equivalent length
Keep piping clean and dry, especially on units with R-410A refrigerant
Avoid piping runs through noise-sensitive areas
Do not run piping directly in front of airstream of any air conditioner
Refrigerant oil – do not mix oil types
Refer to ASHRAE Refrigeration Handbook for general, good-practice refrigeration piping.

6.2.1 General Layout
1. Piping must be Type ACR copper tubing and sized per Tables 7,8,9 and 10.
Use the shortest possible refrigeration pipelines to minimize the total charge of refrigerant and
the number of pressure drops.
2. Minimize the number of bends and make the bends the largest radius practical to prevent
constricting refrigerant flow.
3. Insulate the piping as specified in Table 5. If the pipes are installed next to electrical cables, they
must be isolated from the building using vibration-isolating supports to avoid damage to cable
insulation.
4. There must be at least one inch (25mm) separation between the gas and liquid pipelines. If this is
not possible, insulate both lines.
5. Support both horizontal and vertical pipes with vibration-damping clamps, which include rubber
gaskets. Place these clamps every 5 to 7 ft. (1.5 to 2m).
NOTE
All field-installed piping must comply with applicable national, state and local codes.

6.2.3 Installing Piping
The following operations must be carried out by an experienced refrigeration technician.
NOTICE
Risk of oil contamination with water. Can cause equipment damage.
The piping must not be open to the atmosphere for extended periods because the Liebert CRV
requires POE (polyol ester) oil. POE oil absorbs water at a much faster rate when exposed to
air than previously used oils. Because water is the enemy of a reliable refrigeration system,
extreme care must be used when opening systems during installation or service. If water is
absorbed into the POE oil, it will not be easily removed and will not be removed through the
normal evacuation process. If the oil is too wet, it may require an oil change. POE oils also
have a property that makes them act as a solvent in a refrigeration system. Maintaining
system cleanliness is extremely important because the oil will tend to bring any foreign
matter back to the compressor.
1. When installing the refrigerant piping, note the following:
•Brazing:
All joints must be brazed.
Avoid butt brazes by using couplings or swaging one of the pipes with a swaging tool.
Ensure that all brazed joints are leak-free.
Flow dry nitrogen through the pipes during brazing.
Always use large-radius curves (bending radius at least equal to pipe diameter). Bend the pipes
as follows:
soft copper: bend by hand or use bending device;
hard copper: use preformed curves.
To minimize oxidation, avoid overheating the pipes when brazing.
2. Connect the pipes to the condenser:
Condensers with butt-brazed pipe connections: Cut the pipe, enlarge it and braze it to the pipe-
line.
Respect the direction of refrigerant flow. (See labels on refrigerant.)
3. Wash out the pipelines as follows:
a. Plug up the free ends of the pipes.
b. Connect a helium or nitrogen cylinder, fitted with a reducer (max. pressure 10 bar), to the
1/4" SAE Schrader valve of the condenser.
c. Pressurize the pipes with helium or nitrogen.
d. Unplug the pipes instantaneously.
e. Repeat Steps a through d several times.
This operation is especially important when hard copper piping is used.
4. Open all the shutoff valves on the room unit.
5. Discharge the room unit pressurized with helium (at 1 bar) by opening the charge valves so that
all the branches of the circuit are discharged (e.g., on the receiver, on the low pressure side and on
the compressor delivery).
6. Debraze the bottoms from the connections of the room unit.
7. Fix (braze) the pipes to the connections on the air conditioner.
8. Connect the refrigerant safety pressure relief valve to the outdoors with a 16 mm (5/8") copper
pipe. Only water/glycol units have a indoor relief valve. Air cooled units do not have an indoor
pressure relief valve.

6.3.1 Evacuation Air-Cooled Models
Variable Fan Speed Control Leak Check and Evacuation Procedure
Proper leak check and evacuation can be accomplished only with all system solenoid valves open and
check valves accounted for.
1. If unit power is available, open the unit liquid line solenoid valves using the evacuation function
for System #1 in the diagnostic section of the Liebert iCOM® control (see Figure 68). If unit
power is not available, a field-supplied 24VAC / 75VA power source must be directly connected to
the unit solenoid valve.
2. Connect refrigerant gauges to the suction rotalock valves and discharge line Schrader valves.
3. Open the service valves and place a 150 PSIG (1034 kPa) of dry nitrogen with a tracer of
refrigerant. Check system for leaks with a suitable leak detector.
4. After completion of leak testing, release the test pressure (per local code) and pull an initial deep
vacuum on the system with a suitable pump.
5. After four hours, check the pressure readings and, if they have not changed, break vacuum with
dry nitrogen. Pull a second and third vacuum to 250 microns or less. Recheck the pressure after
two hours. After completing this step, proceed to Variable Fan Speed Charging on page 28.
NOTE
The system include a factory-installed check valve and an additional downstream Schrader
valve with core in the compressor discharge line. Proper evacuation of the condenser side of the
compressor can be accomplished only using the downstream Schrader valve. See piping
schematic.

Variable Fan Speed Charging
1. Check unit nameplate for refrigerant type to be used. Unit control configurations differ depending
on refrigerant type.
2. Charging the system with refrigerant requires the unit to be in an operational state..
3. Calculate the amount of charge for the system. Refer to the unit, condenser and refrigerant line
charge data in Tables 12,13 and 14.
4. Weigh in as much of the system charge as possible before starting the unit.
NOTICE
Risk of improper refrigerant charging. Can cause equipment damage.
Refrigerant R-410A is a blend of two components and must be introduced and charged from
the cylinder only as a liquid.
When adding liquid refrigerant to an operating system, it may be necessary to add the
refrigerant through the compressor suction service valve. Care must be exercised to avoid
damage to the compressor. Emerson recommends connecting a sight glass between the
charging hose and the compressor suction service valve. This will permit adjustment of the
cylinder hand valve so that liquid can leave the cylinder while allowing vapor to enter the
compressor.
5. Turn on unit disconnect switch. Operate the unit for 30 minutes using the charging function in
the diagnostic section of the Liebert iCOM® control (see Figure 68). The charging function
operates the compressor at full capacity and energizes the blower motor and the liquid line
solenoid valve. The reheat and humidifier are disabled. A minimum 20psig (138kPa) must be
established and maintained for the compressor to operate. The charging function can be reset as
many times as required to complete unit charging.
6. Charge the unit until the liquid line sight glass becomes clear, then add one additional pound
(2.2kg) of refrigerant.
7. As head pressure builds, the variable fan speed controlled condenser fan begins rotating. The fan
will run at full speed when sufficient head pressure is developed—fan starts to rotate at 310psig
(2137kPa) and is full speed at 400psig (2758kPa).
NOTE
A digital scroll compressor will have a clear sight glass only when operating at 100% capacity.
When operating below 100%, the sight glass may show bubbles with each 15-second unloading
cycle.

8.2 Protective Features of the Electrically Commutated Fans
The EC fans are protected against:
Overtemperature of electronics
Overtemperature of motor
Locked rotor protection
Short circuit at the motor output
When any of these failures occurs, the motor stops, electronically, with no potential for separation,
and the status relay is released.
The unit does not restart automatic automatically. To reset the alarm, the power supply must be
switched Off for 20 minutes once motor is at standstill.
Input power undervoltage detection:
If the utility power falls below 3ph/290VAC (typical value) for 5 seconds or longer, the motor is
switched Off, electronically, with no potential for separation, and the status relay is released.
When the utility voltage returns to a correct value, the motor restarts automatically.
Phase failure recognition:
If one phase fails for 5 seconds or longer, the motor is switched Off, electronically, with no poten-
tial for separation, and the status relay is released.
When all three phases return to correct values, the motor restarts automatically in 10 to 40 sec-
onds.
The power supply for an external speed-setting potentiometer is protected against short-circuiting.
The motor is overload-protected via motor current limitation.

9.3 Chilled Water Valve: Chilled Water Models
The 3-way valve controls the chilled water flow and operates as follows (refer to Figure 4):
When the valve is fully open (i.e., maximum chilled water flow), the actuator slot is set to “1.”
When the valve is closed (i.e., no chilled water flow), the actuator slot is set to “0.”
The valve running time is set to the value specified in the control manual.
For more details, see the technical bulletin for chilled water valves and related actuators. Technical
bulletins are enclosed with documentation onboard the unit.
Figure 30 Position of the chilled water valve actuator (for 2- or 3-way valve)
9.4 Adjust Baffles to Direct Air Properly
The Liebert CRV has been equipped with an adjustable, modular supply air baffle system. The baffles
should be adjusted prior to start-up to direct air towards the racks the cooling unit is intended to
condition. Ideally, these should be the same racks the cooling unit is pulling hot air from. The baffles
can be readjusted at any time as cooling needs change.
The Liebert CRV is shipped with the baffles in an alternating pattern to direct cold air left and right.
This configuration should be used when the cooling unit is located between racks. If a Liebert CRV is
installed at the end of a row, all the baffles should be adjusted to blow air down the cold-aisle, toward
the racks. The baffle segments at the top of the panel will direct more air than the segments at the
bottom. The supply air will travel the furthest when all baffle segments are pointed in the same
direction, left or right.
NOTE
1. In the unlikely event of control system failure, the valve can be manually controlled with
the rotary knob. It can be used to drive the actuator into any position between 0 and 1.
2. When the actuator stem is completely down, the valve is open and chilled water coil is
supplied.
!
WARNING
Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death.
Disconnect all local and remote electric power supplies before working within.
Ensure that the Liebert CRV is shut down and power has been disconnected before beginning
any work on the unit.

9.5 Remote Rack Sensor Wiring
The Liebert CRV is capable of supporting up to ten (10) 2T remote rack temperature sensor housings.
It is recommended that one (1) 2T housing be attached to each rack the Liebert CRV is intended to
cool. The sensors provide feedback directly to the cooling unit to improve efficiency and performance.
Rack sensors help combat cooling problems related to recirculation air, uneven rack loading and air
distribution. The 2T rack sensors are intended for cold aisle use only.
While installing the rack sensors is optional, Emerson recommends that they be installed.
Installations with multiple Liebert CRV cooling units should be connected in a Unit-to-Unit (U2U)
Ethernet network to leverage all of the Liebert iCOM® control benefits, see 11.3 Wiring a Liebert
iCOM® U2U Network.
A sensor network can be extended at any time by connecting additional 2T sensors to the last 2T
sensor on the network. Sensors connect in a daisy chain fashion back to the cooling unit; individual
wires
from each sensor to the cooling unit are avoided.
There are two steps to setting up a remote rack sensor:
The DIP switches of the remote rack sensor must be configured to have a unique ID
The Liebert iCOM control must be set to use the remote rack sensor as either a controlling sensor
or as a reference sensor.

b. Based on the sensor number, use the included DIP switch tool to set the DIP switches
according to the table above. If you are having difficulty setting switches through the opening
in the housing or if the hole is not present, you may open the case by removing the three
Phillips-head screws. Reassemble housing once complete.
Figure 35 Setting 2T Sensor DIP Switches
Note: Use included DIP switch tool (or similar tool). DO NOT insert any metal object into the sensor
case.
9.5.3 Terminating the Last 2T Sensor on a Network
The last 2T sensor on the network, which can be identified by only having one CAN cable plugged into
it, needs to be “Terminated”. All other 2T sensors on the network need to remain “Un-terminated”.
Sensor #3 is setup as “Terminated” when it leaves the factory. As long as Sensor #3 is the last sensor
on the network, none of the other termination jumpers in the other sensors need to be adjusted.
Note: The sensors do not need to be connected in numerical order.
For example, if five sensors are purchased, they can be connected in the following pattern:
Note: In the above example, if additional sensors are added at a later time to extend the existing
sensor network, Sensor #3 will have to be “Un-terminated”. The additional sensors can then be
connected, and the new last sensor on the network will have to be “Terminated”.
the last sensor in the new network must be terminated.
To terminate a 2T sensor:
1. Open the sensor’s case by removing the three screws that hold it together.
2. Pull the black jumper off the circuit board from Pins 1 and 2 (see Figure 36).
3. Install the jumper on Pins 2 and 3.
4. Reassemble the sensor housing.

9.5.4 Route the CAN bus wire into the cooling unit
The CAN bus sensors connect to the open CAN port on the back of the unit display panel. The Display
comes “Terminated” from the factory and will have to be “Un-terminated’ to allow for additional
sensors to be added. See photo above for termination jumper location for front panel display and
sensor boards. Note that connecting the CAN bus sensors will require entering the High Voltage
electrical compartment of the Liebert CRV. If you are not comfortable with the installation procedure,
it is recommended that you hire a certified electrician.
Connect the 10ft CAN wire to the open CAN bus port on the rear of the iCOM graphic display.
Ensure there is enough slack in the wire to allow the door to open and close freely, but not too much
slack to bind or pinch when the door is shut. It is recommended that a cable tie is used to secure the
wiring.
Connect the other end of the 10ft CAN cable to the nearest 2T rack sensor. Use additional CAN cables
to connect the remaining 2T rack sensors to each other. The order in which the 2T sensors are
attached does not matter; however, be sure that the last sensor connected is the one set to
“terminated”. As a best practice, avoid using excessive lengths of cable between sensors.

9.5.5 Installing 2T sensors on racks
Both temperature sensors attached to a 2T sensor housing are to be installed on 1 rack. The sensor
can be attached to the inside or outside of the rack's front door.
One temperature sensor is to be attached near the top of the rack’s front door by using a cable tie
to secure the wire to the perforation (approx. 12" [305mm] from the top). Do not wrap a cable tie
around the actual sensor on the end of the wire. This sensor will monitor for hot air wrapping over
the top of the rack from the hot aisle.
The other temperature sensor is to be attached to the rack's front door, centered in front of the
heat generating equipment that will be drawing in air.
If the rack is completely filled with equipment, locate the sensor in the middle of the door,
width and height.
If the rack is partially filled with equipment, locate the sensor in the center of the equipment
on the front door.
•Do NOT
Install a sensor in the hot aisle
Leave a sensor coiled on top of or inside the rack.
With the temperature sensors in place, neatly route the wires up the rack door and into the rack
using the supplied cable ties. Be sure to leave an appropriate amount of slack in the cable to allow
the rack door to open and close without binding or pinching the wires.
Affix the 2T sensor housing to the rack using the supplied hook-and-loop fastener. It is recom-
mended that the housing be installed in an easily accessible space with the sensor number label
visible in case the housing needs accessed at a later time.
Repeat this process until all sensors have been installed.

10.0 LIEBERT ICOM® CONTROL
The Liebert CRV is equipped with the most advanced Liebert iCOM control system. The large Liebert
iCOM display is standard on the Liebert CRV.
Each Liebert CRV contains a return air temperature and humidity sensor, supply air temperature
sensor and three remote rack sensors. Up to an additional 7 remote rack sensors can be added to the
sensor network. Each rack sensor takes two temperature readings and reports either the average or
the maximum temperature of the two sensors.
The 2T rack temperature sensors provide feedback to the cooling unit about the condition of the air
entering the server racks. This information allows the Liebert CRV to ensure it is providing just
enough cold air to each rack, virtually eliminating hot spots. Overcooling and excessive airflow are
avoided, greatly reducing unnecessary energy consumption.
Each Liebert CRV includes three 2T rack temperature sensors to monitor three racks. A total of ten
2T temperature sensors can be connected to each cooling unit to monitor every rack a Liebert CRV is
protecting. When multiple cooling units are connected in a Unit-to-Unit iCOM control network, all
sensor data is shared to optimize their performance as a system.
2T rack sensors can also be initially installed on empty racks reserved for future growth with the
control set to ignore these sensor readings. The extra 2T temperature sensor readings can also be
displayed on the local display and reported remotely for monitoring purposes only; not impacting unit
operation. This function provides users with a built-in mini-monitoring system.

10.3 Liebert iCOM® Control Setup
The Liebert iCOM on the Liebert CRV leaves the factory with the fan speed and cooling capacity
controlled by the supply air sensor. This control mode is extremely robust and will ensure that you
are delivering precise cooling to the cold aisle. To unlock the full capability of the Liebert CRV, the
remote rack sensors should be installed, which will allow the fan speed and the cooling capacity to be
“de-coupled.” This means that the fan speed can now be controlled independently of the cooling
capacity. In this advanced configuration, the Liebert CRV can control the discharge temperature of
the unit by modulating cooling capacity based on the supply sensor and use the remote rack sensors
to ensure that the cool air is being delivered to the inlet of the racks. Using the supply and remote
rack sensors in this de-coupled mode is the preferred method for controlling the Liebert CRV in a hot
/ cold aisle configuration. In addition to this configuration Emerson has provided additional flexibility
for other applications shown in Table 25.
Figure 50 Setpoint screen
In Figure 50, the controlling temperature sensor can be set to either Supply, Return or Remote. As
the selection is changed from one sensor to another, the setpoint is displayed next to the
corresponding sensor on the illustration, giving a visual indication of the sensor placement in
relationship to the Liebert CRV.
A password must be entered to change the setting; see 10.1.3 Entering a Password for assistance
on entering the password.
Temperature sensor settings are based on user preference. Use the settings below as a guideline.
1. Set the remote temperature setpoint to the desired server inlet temperature
2. Set the humidity setpoint to 45% with a 10 to 20% deadband.
This will control the moisture content well inside the AHSRAE standard.
3. Set the supply setpoint 5°F below the setting for the remote rack sensor.
This will serve as a starting point.
If 75°F (24°C) server entering air temperature is desired, the supply air must be colder to account for
any thermal pickup of the air as it flows to the cold aisle. If this does not achieve the cold aisle
temperature Setpoint, then set the supply sensor setpoint lower. Continue to do this until the cold
aisle temperature setpoint is achieved.

The supply temperature Setpoint may require adjusting since it will be dependent on the distance of
the CRV to the server racks being cooled. This temperature will also be dependant on rack blanking
panels, server population and if containment is being used.

used to control the Liebert CRV fan speed and cooling capacity. The table shows the different coupled
and decoupled modes available for the Liebert CRV.

generated the alarm, time and date stamp, a description and the event type.
10.5 Spare Part List
The spare parts lists contains a detailed description and part number that can be used to order parts
for the unit. These part numbers are specific to each model and option installed on the unit.
10.6 Wellness—Next Maintenance Calculation
The next maintenance calculation, as well as the included diagnostics feature, will help keep the
cooling unit running at peak performance to ensure minimum component stress and maximum
reliability. The diagnostics will help the service engineer evaluate the unit’s operation since the last
maintenance.
10.6.1 Calculation of Next Maintenance and Diagnostics
If the unit includes any of the following components, they are included in the calculation:
•Fan(s)
Compressor 1
Compressor 2
Electric Heaters
• Humidifier
For each component, the next maintenance will be calculated from the following parameters:
Standard service interval (1, 2 or 4 times a year) (to be set)
Working hours (counted)
Number of starts (counted)
Average running time (calculated)
Optimum number of starts per hour (to be set)
Maximum number of starts per hour (to be set)
Maximum bonus to enlarge time to next maintenance (to be set)
Maximum penalty to reduce time to next maintenance (to be set)

Liebert iCOM® Control
63 Liebert® CRV
Calculating Unit Wellness
Liebert iCOM® keeps tabs on the condition of a cooling unit, determining its wellness and projecting
when service will be needed, for the entire unit as well as for individual components. This assists in
scheduling maintenance calls and helps pinpoint components likely to require service.
Liebert iCOM displays a graphic for needed maintenance. It begins with the standard maintenance
interval—12 months, six months or three months—and adjusts that based on its calculation of
components’ wellness.
To calculate wellness, Liebert iCOM keeps a running total of component working hours and the
number of times it has been started. Liebert iCOM relates that data to the optimum/maximum starts
per hour. Accordingly, Liebert iCOM will increase or decrease the time before the next service call will
be needed.
The more frequently a component starts, the sooner it is likely to need maintenance. If, for example, a
unit’s fan runs continuously, but it’s compressor starts and stops often, Liebert iCOM records that
and calls for maintenance based on the compressor’s wellness factor.
Alarms and warnings, such as clogged filters or high or low pressure, reduce the time till the next
maintenance to zero. If the alarm is cleared and reset, Liebert iCOM recalculates wellness. It begins
with the pre-alarm maintenance time and factors in the alarm.
Parameters for Next Maintenance Calculation
General Maintenance Settings
Maintenance Frequency—can be set as one to 12 months or to zero, which disables mainte-
nance calculation
Max. Bonus—increases the time to next maintenance with the set value, if all components run
optimally (number of starts, average running time)
Max. Penalty value—decreases the time to next maintenance with the set value, if some compo-
nents run in non-optimum way (number of starts, average running time)
Last Maintenance—date can be set from service-engineer; informational
Service-Engineer—name of the service engineer; editable
Reset—puts all counters of all components, such as (motor, compressors, heaters and humidifier),
at zero and starts a new maintenance calculation (reset to be done after maintenance)

10.7 Liebert CRV Operation—Liebert iCOM® Control
10.7.1 Cooling
The cooling control of the Liebert CRV can be managed from any of the temperature sensors. Emerson
recommends using the supply temperature sensor to control the cooling capacity of the Liebert CRV.
The supply temperature is an accurate representation of the actual heat rejection the Liebert CRV
needs to perform at an optimal level. A chilled water version of the Liebert CRV will modulate the
cooling capacity from 0% - 100% and the DX version of the Liebert CRV will modulate the cooling
capacity of the unit from 20% -100% compressor capacity.
To avoid short-cycling the compressor during room heat load changes, the Liebert CRV will not
deactivate the compressor until the air temperature is below 150% of temperature setpoint when in
Remote or Supply Air Control or below 200% of temperature setpoint when operating in Return Air
control.
10.7.2 Heating
The heating control is active only when the unit is in dehumidification mode. The reheats will begin
activation when the control temperature has dropped to -66% of the controls proportional band and
will deactivate when the temperature setpoint has been reached.
10.7.3 Air Flow
The Liebert CRV’s airflow can be controlled manually or dynamically by temperature sensors.
Emerson recommends controlling the fan speed using the remote rack temperature sensors. The
remote rack sensors are an accurate representation of the delivery of the Liebert CRV’s discharge air.
When using the remote rack temperature sensors, the fan speed will modulate from 50% to 100%
based on the remote rack temperature setpoint and the sensitivity of the proportional and integral
settings. Manually controlling the Liebert CRV’s fan speed is also possible by setting a fixed fan speed
either from the front display or through a monitoring system. The manual control will be overridden
for freeze protection, humidification and reheat operation. In the event of a single fan failure the
Liebert CRV will ramp the remaining operating fan to 110% of its rated output to compensate for the
loss of airflow. In addition, an alarm will be triggered to report which fan failed.
10.7.4 Humidification
The Liebert CRV’s humidification is activated when the measured temperature and humidity sensor
has been calculated to exceed the corresponding dew point setpoint. The dew point setpoint is
calculated based on the temperature and humidity of the sensor set to control the control setpoint and
relative humidity.
Example: Temperature Setpoint 72°F / Humidity Setpoint 50% = 52°F Dew Point
NOTE
The Liebert iCOM control monitors the condition of the air discharging from the unit to protect
neighboring electronic equipment. Liebert iCOM will prevent the humidifier from activating if
the discharge air is near its saturation point. This protects against discharging fog from the
unit or condensation forming on the unit’s supply air baffles. This protection mode is activated
when the supply sensor reading is below 53°F (11.7°C) or above 55% relative humidity. When
this condition is met a message will display showing “humidifier” suspended.
The status of the humidifier lockout can be viewed in the Service/Diagnostics menu.
These protections do not apply to the external humidifier output.

Figure 57 Setpoints parameters screen - Page 1
Temperature Setpoint—This parameter selects a temperature that the cooling unit will maintain
by applying cooling and or reheats. This parameter is adjustable from 41-104°F (5-40°C), the factory
default setting is 73°F (22.7°C).
Temperature Control Sensor—This sensor controls the cooling capacity of the Liebert CRV. If the
unit is chilled water model, then this sensor controls the chilled water valve opening. If the unit is a
DX (direct expansion) model then this sensor will control the amount of digital scroll capacity.
Temperature Control Type—This parameter selects the type of control the system will use to
activate cooling, heating, humidification and dehumidification. A detailed description of each control
type can be found in 3.7 - Supply Control.
Temperature Deadband—This parameter can be set to avoid overshooting of the setpoint and
cycling between the reheats and cooling. The value entered into this field will be split in half by the
temperature setpoint. Example—If the temperature setpoint is 70°F (21.1°C) and a 4°F (2.2°C)
deadband is set, then no cooling will be activated until 72°F (22.2°C) and no heating will be activated
until 68°F (20°C) is reached.
Cooling Proportional Band—This parameter adjusts the activation points of compressors or rate
of change based on the actual sensor values deviation from setpoint. The smaller this number the
faster the compressors and valve(s) will increase capacity. Too small of a number may cause the unit
to short cycle the compressors or excessively reposition the valve.
Cooling Integration/Derivative—Cooling integration takes into consideration the amount of time
the actual temperature has deviated from the setpoint. The longer this deviation exists the more
corrective action the unit will use to achieve the setpoint. The derivative term monitors the rate of
change and will reduce or increase the amount of corrective action based on the actual temperature
increasing or decreasing toward the temperature setpoint.

Humidity Setpoint—This parameter allows the user to select a humidity that the cooling unit will
maintain by removing or adding moisture to the air. This parameter is adjustable from 20-80%. The
factory default setting from the factory is 50%.
Humidity Control Type—This parameter selects the humidity control calculation. Setting this
parameter to “Relative” will control the humidity without considering any temperature deviations.
“Predictive” and “Absolute” control consider the temperature deviation from temperature setpoint so
that a constant level of moisture is kept in the area based on the humidity sensor reading and the
temperature deviation from setpoint. The factory default setting is “Predictive.”
Humidity Deadband—This parameter can be set to avoid overshooting of the setpoint and cycling
between humidification and dehumidification. The value entered into this field will be split in half by
the temperature setpoint. Example: If the humidity setpoint is 50% and a 4% deadband is set then no
humidity control will be activated between 48% and 52%.
Humidity Proportional Band—This parameter adjusts the activation points of the humidifier and
compressors based on the actual sensor values deviation from setpoint. The smaller this number the
faster the compressors and humidifier will increase capacity, too small of a number may cause the
unit to short cycle or overshoot setpoint.
Humidity Integration Time—This parameter adjusts the capacity of the unit based on time away
from setpoint so that accurate humidity control can be maintained. This parameter is only active
when Control Type is set to “PI.”
Dehum Proportional Band—The parameter adjusts the activation points of dehumidification
based on the actual sensor values deviation from setpoint. The smaller this number the faster the
compressors and humidifier will increase capacity, too small of a number may cause the unit to short
cycle or overshoot setpoint.
Dehum Integration Time—This parameter adjusts the capacity of the unit based on time away
from setpoint so that accurate humidity control can be maintained. This parameter is only active
when control type is set to “PI”.
Dehum/Heat Low Limit 1—This parameter sets the temperature at which the compressor will be
deactivated for dehumidification control. Example—If Low Limit 1 is set to 4°F (2.2°C) and the
temperature setpoint is 70°F (21.1°C), then dehumidification will turn off at 66°F (18.8°C).
Low Limit 1 reset—This parameter controls when the temperature has increased enough to re-
enable dehumidification.

Fan Control Type—This parameter sets how the fan speed will be controlled. This parameter can be
set to Auto mode, which will allow the Liebert CRV to drive the fan based on the temperature sensor
selected for sensor control type. This parameter can also be set to Manual mode, which allows the
Liebert CRV to be set to a fixed fan speed either through the local display or through a building
management system.
Fan Control Sensor—This parameter sets which sensor will drive the Liebert CRV fans when set to
Auto mode for the fan control type.
Fan Regulation Type—This parameter is the fans’ control type. It can be set to Proportional
control, which will modulate the fans linearly based on the deviation from the setpoint. PI control is
also available and works in the same manner as the temperature control integral term.
Fan Delta—This parameter sets the fan speed setpoint. The delta accounts for the temperature rise
from the Supply Air Sensor and the Remote Rack sensors by adding the Fan Delta to the
Temperature Setpoint (S102). This eliminates the possibility of setting the remote rack temperature
setpoint lower than the supply temperature setpoint.
Fan Speed Proportional Band—This parameter adjusts the fans rate of change based on the
actual sensor values deviation from setpoint or the delta. The smaller this number the faster the fan
will increase its speed. Too small of a number may cause the fans to excessively reposition.
Fan Speed Integration—This parameter adjusts the fanspeed of the unit based on time away from
setpoint. This parameter is only active when Control Type is set to “PI.”
Fan Speed Manual Setpoint—This parameter sets the speed of the fans when the unit is placed
into Manual Fan Speed Control mode.
Fan Speed STD—This parameter sets the maximum fan speed of the unit under normal operating
circumstances.
Fan Speed Min—This parameter sets the lowest fan speed operation of the unit.
Fan Speed Dehum—This parameter sets the fan speed the unit will operate at during a call for
dehumidification. The fan speed will position to the highest requirement. If the call for fan speed from
the remote rack sensor is requesting more CFM than the Dehum fan speed, then the fans will run at
the remote sensor fan speed request.

MIN at CFC for EC Fan—This parameter can provide an offset to the minimum fan speed at the
minimum call for cooling. When set to 0 / 100 the MIN speed is reached when the call for fan is at 0%;
and the STD speed is reached when the call for fan reaches 100%.
For example, if the minimum is set to 20 and the standard is set to 90, the fan speed MIN is reached
earlier (the fan operates on lower speed compared to the calculated call for fan), and the STD speed is
reached faster when compared to the calculated call for fan.
STD at CFC for EC Fan—This parameter can provide an offset to the minimum fan speed at the
minimum call for cooling. When set to 0 / 100 the MIN speed is reached when the call for fan is at 0%;
and the STD speed is reached when the call for fan reaches 100%.
High Temp Limit Approach—This parameter sets the sensor that controls the fan speed maximum
override. This can be set to Disable, Supply or Return.
High Temp Limit Approach at— This parameter sets the temperature when the units fan speed
can operate above the maximum speed. The maximum override speed during this mode is set in
parameter A157 (Advanced menus).

Monitoring Timeout/Handshake—This parameter can be used with a building management
system to verify communications has not been lost between the Liebert iCOM® control and the BMS.
If the amount of time specified in this parameter elapses before the BMS writes a new value then an
alarm will occur “BMS TIMEOUT” and the temperature setpoint will revert to the backup setpoint
and the fan speed “if equipped” will change to 100%. To disable this feature write a zero to this
parameter when it is active.
Unit Name—This parameter is a label to identify the unit from the local or remote display. This label
will show at the top right of every screen that has monitoring or configuration of that unit.
Configuration Safe—This parameter saves or loads configuration settings for the control board that
have been modified from the factory defaults to an internal file that can be downloaded / uploaded
using the Liebert iCOM Service Tool. Selecting “Save” will write the settings to the internal storage
file and selecting “Load” will write the settings from the internal storage file to the application
software. The internal file is updated every 12 hours automatically.
Network Safe—This parameter saves or loads network settings for the control board that have been
modified from the factory defaults to an internal file that can be downloaded / uploaded using the
Liebert iCOM Service Tool. Selecting “Save” will write the settings to the internal storage file and
selecting “Load” will write the settings from the internal storage file to the application software.
SW Version—This parameter contains the application software version loaded onto the Liebert
iCOM control board.

Operation in Teamwork Mode
97 Liebert® CRV
11.0 OPERATION IN TEAMWORK MODE
11.1 Unit-to-Unit Network Wiring
Liebert CRV’s can be connected in a unit-to-unit, or U2U, configuration, which allows multiple units
to communicate with each other, sharing of local unit status and sensor readings. The U2U network
will allow up to 32 units to be connected within a single group and up to 99 different groups to exists
on the same physical network. Groups can be used to create zones of influence so that only the Liebert
CRV’s serving a common area will work together and back each other up.
The U2U setup unlocks the use of Lead-Lag/Rotation, Cascade and Teamwork Modes 1 and 2.
Lead-lag/rotation allows a standby Liebert CRV to activate based on an alarm or on a rotation
based on time.
Cascade provides staging of the Liebert CRV’s based on the actual temperature and its relation to
the temperature setpoint.
Teamwork Modes 1 and 2 use the collective temperature information from all Liebert CRV’s on the
U2U network within the same group to determine how the group of Liebert CRV’s should operate. To
help manage the large amount of sensor information Liebert iCOM® allows the sensor data to be used
as an average or a maximum value of all temperature sensor readings at both the local and system
level.
Different groups can be configured to operation in different teamwork modes. If one Liebert CRV
group serves a nonbalanced load, Teamwork Mode 2 will share all sensor data, prevent conflicting
modes of operation between units but still allow each Liebert CRV to modulate based on the unit’s
local sensor readings. Another group of Liebert CRV’s can be configured to operate in Teamwork
Mode 1 that will share all sensor data, prevent conflicting modes of operation between units but will
modulate all Liebert CRV’s at the same capacity based on the U2U sensor readings.
11.2 Liebert iCOM U2U Ethernet Network
The Liebert iCOM U2U network must be isolated from other network traffic. The network switch(es)
that connect Liebert iCOM controls must be dedicated to supporting only Liebert iCOM
communication. The U2U network cannot be connected to the building or IT network. If network
communication is ever lost, all Liebert iCOM-controlled cooling units will continue to operate as
independent units.
The Liebert iCOM control can support up to 64 nodes on one network. An input/output board, large
display and large wall-mount display are each considered one node. Of the 64 nodes that may be
connected, no more than 32 may be input/output boards (32 cooling units).
Network communication can be configured during system startup by a Liebert-trained technician. For

11.3 Wiring a Liebert iCOM® U2U Network
A network switch is required to enable Ethernet unit-to-unit communication on one or more Liebert
CRV’s. Each Liebert CRV requires two straight-through Ethernet cables from a network switch. One
cable connects to port P64 on the Liebert iCOM input/output board and the other straight-through
cable connects to the P64 port on the back of the large display (see Figure 92).

Wall-Mount Large Display
The Liebert CRV has a large display as standard equipment. Only large displays can be used for
remotely monitoring and controlling cooling units connected on the same network. Each wall-mount
large display requires 120V input power; Liebert provides an AC adapter wall plug. A straight-
through Ethernet cable must be connected between the network switch and the P64 port on the back
of the display. This will enable control and monitoring capabilities to any cooling unit connected to the
network.

Figure 93 Teamwork modes and sensor management
11.4.1 Application of Teamwork Modes
No Teamwork: Multiple zones in one room
Teamwork Mode 1: Balanced load (small groups of units inside the same environment)
Teamwork Mode 2: Unbalanced load (large rooms, not all units will have the same load) (work
well for most applications)
All units in a network will run in the same Teamwork Mode.
11.4.2 No Teamwork
All cooling units work independently, responding to their own sensors.
Standby function and unit rotation are possible, but cascading is not (see Standby and Cascade on
page 102). AutoSet will not adjust the proportional band in this mode.
11.4.3 Teamwork Mode 1
Teamwork Mode 1 works best in small rooms with balanced heat loads. The return temperature and
humidity sensor readings of all units in operation (fan on) are averaged by the master unit, Unit #1,
and used for control. The master unit will send the operating requirements to all operating units
according to unit numbers, rotated by one unit every 24 hours.
In this teamwork mode, most of the parameters are shared; if set in any one of the units, all other
units will follow with the same settings. AutoSet will adjust the proportional band in Teamwork
Mode 1.
The master unit evenly divides the system proportional band among the number of available units.
Each unit will receive instruction on how to operate from the master unit based on how far the system
deviates from the setpoints.
The number of available units is calculated like:
In non-standby configuration: all units with fan on
In typical standby function (no cascade): all units with fan on
In cascade mode: all units that could operate (no alarm, which forces the unit to switch off, unit
not switched off, etc.)
NOTE
1. Proportional actuators (chilled water valve, free-cooling actuator) are driven in parallel in
all units.
2. Changeover to second cooling source, low limit during dehumidification and low supply
limit control air local functions, managed from each unit independently.

Operation in Teamwork Mode
101 Liebert® CRV
Figure 94 shows how two cooling units work together in Teamwork Mode 1. Since Unit 1 and Unit 2
are available to operate, the master unit, Unit 1, averages the temperature and humidity sensor
readings from each unit.
The master unit determines that a 60% call for cooling is required for the system. Since there are two
available cooling units, each unit makes up half of the system proportional band; Unit 1 handles 0-
50% system call for cooling and Unit 2 handles 51-100%. For every 1% system call for cooling, each
unit provides 2% of its total cooling capacity.
The 60% system call for cooling exceeds the 50% Unit 1 can provide, so Unit 1 operates at full
capacity. The remaining 10% system call for cooling (60% - 50% = 10%) is handled by Unit 2. Unit 2
responds by operating at 20% cooling capacity (50% ÷ 10% = 20%).
Figure 94 Teamwork Mode 1 with two cooling units
11.4.4 Teamwork Mode 2
Teamwork Mode 2 is designed to prevent units within a group from working against each other or
“fighting.” It is best applied in large rooms with unbalanced heat loads. In Teamwork Mode 2, all
parameters are shared equal to Mode 1, and Unit #1 averages all of the available unit sensor readings
on the network to define whether there is a cooling, heating, dehumidification or humidification
request.
If there is a cooling request, all units are released to start cooling resources according to their own
temperature readings; heating is disabled for all units and vice versa. Same for humidity control.
If the network average would ask for 0% proportional band, the most demanding request (highest or
lowest temperature of all units, highest or lowest humidity of all units) would be used to define the
operation to be performed.
Teamwork Mode 2 does not rotate; unevenly distributed working hours to be expected. AutoSet will
not adjust the proportional band in this mode.
NOTE
In Teamwork Mode 2, all units must have the same setpoints. The units’ proportional band,
deadband and related settings may differ.

11.4.5 Standby—Rotation
Typical Standby (Lead/Lag) Function
This function can be performed in any teamwork mode, including NO Teamwork.
One or more units can be defined to be Standby; the normal status of standby units is Standby Off
(fan off).
In case one regular unit has an alarm that is defined (to be defined in the alarm configuration), to
switch on a standby unit, the faulty unit will switch off and the standby unit will switch on.
If the next unit has an alarm, the next standby unit will be started. If no more standby units are
available, the unit with a non-critical alarm that permits unit operation will be switched on again
(water detection, fan alarm, fire alarm etc. will not permit unit restarting).
The standby function can be rotated daily (setting the time), weekly (setting the day of the week and
time) or monthly (setting the first weekday of the month and time).
The rotation is performed with a selectable number of units: if 1 is selected, to standby rotates from
1-2 to 2-3 in a 4 units configuration with two standby units, and rotates from 1-2 to 3-4 in the same
configuration, when the rotation parameter is set to 2.
Standby and Cascade
Cascade is possible in Teamwork Mode 1 only.
Standby units will start if an alarm occurs in one of the operational units. If the standby units are
cascaded, they will also start and work with the regular operational units if the temperature or
humidity cannot be controlled by the operational units; before a high or low temperature / humidity
condition occurs. Cascaded units are switched off again as soon as the temperature / humidity returns
back to normal.
The master unit defines its proportional band according to the number of available units (see
11.4.3 Teamwork Mode 1).
When a standby unit receives a request for full heating or cooling from the master unit, it will
respond to the request after its control delay.
NOTE
Before entering standby mode, units will operate the fan only for 3 minutes to cool the electrical
heaters, remove steam from the unit, etc.
NOTE
Cascaded units are not included in the calculation of the average temperature / humidity.
Operation
103 Liebert® CRV
12.0 OPERATION
Figure 95 Return air temperature and humidity sensor viewed from the rear of the unit
The control system compares the relayed information with the programmed setpoint and proportional
band values and performs one of the following operations:
Cooling—Direct expansion mode (DX): The compressor is started and the cold refrigerant flows
through the evaporator, thus cooling the air passing through it. For compressor operation see
Liebert iCOM® user manual, SL-18835. Liebert recommends using the supply temperature sensor
to control the cooling capacity of the Liebert CRV, but cooling can be managed from any of the
temperature sensors. The supply temperature is an accurate representation of the actual heat
rejection the Liebert CRV needs to perform. Chilled water Liebert CRV models will modulate the
cooling capacity from 0% - 100% and DX models will modulate the cooling capacity from 20% -
100% compressor capacity. To avoid short-cycling the compressor during room heat load changes,
the CRV will not deactivate the compressor until the air temperature is below 150% of tempera-
ture setpoint when in Remote or Supply Air Control or below 200% of temperature setpoint when
operating in Return Air Control.
Chilled water mode (CW)—The three-way valve is opened and the chilled water flows through
the coil, thus cooling the air passing through it. For valve operation, see the Liebert iCOM user
manual, SL-18835.
Reheating—Electrical heating (optional): The heating elements heat the air passing over them
during dehumidifcation. The heating control is active only when the unit is in dehumidification
mode. The reheats will only activate when the unit is dehumidifying. The reheats will begin acti-
vation when the control temperature has dropped to -66% of the control’s proportional band and
will deactivate when temperature setpoint has been reached.
Dehumidification (DX mode)— The temperature of the cooling coil is reduced to remove mois-
ture from the air (refer to Figures 58,59,69 and 90).
In dehumidification mode, the air after passing over the coil is reheated (if needed) by electrical
heaters to stabilize the initial temperature.
NOTE
If dehumidification cannot reach its setpoint within a set amount of time, the unit will delay
dehumidification to allow the room temperature to stabilize.
Operation
Liebert® CRV104
Humidification (optional)—The humidifier creates steam, which is distributed into the air
stream via the steam distribution pipe. (See also Appendix A - Humidifier). The Liebert CRV’s
humidification is activated when the measured temperature and humidity sensor has been calcu-
lated to exceed the corresponding dew point setpoint. The dew point setpoint is calculated based
on the temperature and humidity of the sensor set to control the control setpoint and relative
humidity.
Example: Temperature Setpoint 72°F / Humidity Setpoint 50% = 52°F Dew Point
NOTE
The Liebert iCOM® control monitors the condition of the air discharging from the unit to
protect neighboring electronic equipment. Liebert iCOM will prevent the humidifier from
activating if the discharge air is near its saturation point. This protects against discharging fog
from the unit or condensation forming on the unit's supply air baffles. This protection mode is
activated when the supply sensor reading is below 53°F (11.7°C) or above 55% relative
humidity. When this condition is met a message will display showing “humidifier” suspended.
The status of the humidifier lockout can be viewed in the Service/Diagnostics menu.
These protections do not apply to the external humidifier output.

Calibration and Regulation after Startup
Liebert® CRV106
13.0 CALIBRATION AND REGULATION AFTER STARTUP
The Liebert CRV has been factory-tested and calibrated, but it is very important to check, at startup,
the superheating of the thermostatic valve (A/W versions).
For calibrations of instruments installed on the external condensers/drycoolers, refer to the man-
ual for the equipment.
For control system calibrations, refer to the Liebert iCOM® manual, SL-18835. (To prevent erratic
operation, do not use temperature and relative humidity setpoints/proportional bands that differ
excessively from the default settings.)
13.1 Thermostatic Expansion Valve
The Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TEV) performs one function: It keeps the evaporator supplied
with enough refrigerant to satisfy load conditions. It does not effect compressor operation.
Proper valve operation can be determined by measuring superheat. The correct superheat setting is
between 10 and 20°F (-12 and -6°C). If too little refrigerant is being fed to the evaporator, the
superheat will be high; if too much refrigerant is being supplied, the superheat will be low.
13.1.1 Determine Suction Superheat
To determine superheat:
1. Measure the temperature of the suction line at the point the TEV bulb is clamped.
2. Obtain the gauge pressure at the compressor suction valve.
3. Add the estimated pressure drop between the bulb’s location and the suction valve.
4. Convert the sum of the two pressures to the equivalent temperature.
5. Subtract this temperature from the actual suction line temperature. The difference is superheat.
13.1.2 Adjust Superheat Setting with the TEV
To adjust the superheat setting:
1. Remove the valve cap at the bottom of the valve.
2. Turn the adjusting stem counterclockwise to lower the superheat.
3. Turn the adjusting stem clockwise to increase the superheat.
13.2 Environmental Protection
Misuse or incorrect calibration of the unit leads to increased energy consumption, resulting in
economic and environmental damage.
NOTE
Make no more than one turn of the stem at a time. As long as thirty minutes may be required
for the new balance to take place.

14.8 Dismantling the Unit
The Liebert CRV has been designed and built to ensure continuous operation.
The working life of some of the main components, such as the fan and the compressor, depends on
proper maintenance.
NOTICE
Risk of release of hazardous substances into the environment. Can cause environmental
pollution and violation of environmental regulations.
The Liebert CRV contains substances and components hazardous for the environment
(electronic components, refrigerating gases and oils). At the end of its useful life, the
Liebert CRV must be dismantled by specialized refrigerating technicians. The unit must be
delivered to suitable centers specializing in the collection and disposal of equipment
containing hazardous substances.
The refrigerating fluid and the lubricating oil inside the circuit must be recovered according to the
laws in the relevant country.
To recover the gas, use all the connections described in 6.0 Refrigerant Connections.
14.9 F-Gas Regulation (EC) No. 842/2006
Stationary air conditioning placed in the European Community market and operating with
fluorinated greenhouse gases (F-gas), such as R-134A, R-407C and R-410A, must comply with the F-
gas Regulation (applied since July 4, 2007).
Following considerations must be observed when operating with the above-mentioned equipment:
Fluorinated greenhouse gases are covered by the Kyoto Protocol.
The fluorinated greenhouse gases in this equipment should not be vented to the atmosphere.
Referring to the value noted in Annex I of Regulation (EC) No 842/2006, the following list speci-
fies the global warming potential (GWP) of some major F-gases:
R-134A: GWP 1300
R-407C: GWP 1610
R-410A: GWP 1890
Operators of the above-mentioned applications, which contain fluorinated greenhouse gases,
shall, using all measures that are technically feasible and do not entail disproportionate cost:
a. prevent leakage of these gases and, as soon as possible, repair any detected leakage;
b. ensure that they are checked for leakage by certified personnel;
c. ensure arrangements are put in place for the proper recovery by certified personnel.
d. In case of applications containing 3 kg (6 kg in case of hermetically sealed systems) or more of
F-gases, certified personnel and companies (according to Reg. 303/2008) provide regular leak
testing (according to Reg. 1516/2007 and Reg. 1497/2007) and maintain records of
maintenance activities in a dedicated log book.
e. Recovery for the purpose of recycling, reclamation or destruction of the fluorinated
greenhouse gases, pursuant to Art. 4 (Recovery) of Reg.842/2006, shall take place before the
final disposal of that equipment and, when appropriate, during its servicing and
maintenance.
Operator, according to Reg. 842/2006, Article 2, point 6, means the natural or legal person exercis-
ing actual power over the technical functioning of the equipment and system covered by the Regu-
lation. The State may, in defined, specific situations, designate the owner as being responsible for
the operator's obligations.
Direct methods of leakage checking approved by the manufacturer (Reg. 1516/2007 and Reg.
1497/2007):
a. gas detection device adapted to the refrigerant in the system; the sensitivity of portable gas
detection devices (as a direct test method) shall be at least five grams per year.
b. proprietary bubble solutions / soapsuds.
Maintenance
113 Liebert® CRV
Additional information located in a dedicated label of the unit (Reg. 1494/2007):
a. Where fluorinated greenhouse gas is foreseen to be added to the equipment outside of the
manufacturing site at the point of installation, a dedicated label accommodates notation of
both the quantity (kg) pre-charged in the manufacturing plant and the quantity charged at
the installation site, as well as the resulting total quantity of F-gas as a combination of the
above-mentioned quantities, in a manner that conforms to legibility and indelibility.
Our split units are usually not pre-charged at the factory; in this case, the total quantity of
refrigerant charged in the unit must be written in the relevant label, during the commission-
ing operation at the installation site.
b. Our packaged units (not split) operating with F-gas are usually fully charged at the factory,
and the total amount of refrigerant charge is already reported on the label. In this case, the
label has no need of further written information.
c. In general, the above-mentioned information has been located in the main nameplate of the
relevant unit.
d. For equipment with double refrigeration circuits, in regards to different requirements based
on the quantity of F-gas contained, the required information about refrigerant charge
quantities must be listed separately for each individual circuit.
e. For equipment with separate indoor and outdoor sections connected by refrigerant piping, the
label information will be on that part of the equipment that is initially charged with the
refrigerant. In case of a split system (separate indoor and outdoor sections) without a factory
precharge of refrigerant, the mandatory label information will be on that part of the product
or equipment that contains the most suitable service points for charging or recovering the
fluorinated greenhouse gas(es).
Safety data sheets of F-gases used into the products are available on demand.

APPENDIX A-HUMIDIFIER
A.1 PRINCIPAL OF OPERATION
When the Liebert iCOM® calls, the cylinder fills to 100% of the Full Load Amperage (FLA) or to the
top of the cylinder, whichever comes first. See Figure 100. If it reaches 100% FLA, the water heats
and boils away to a level giving 80% FLA. An electronic timer uses the rate of amp fall to determine
the water level. The objective is to concentrate current carrying minerals in the cylinder so that a
smaller volume of water is required to produce the rated steam output. This extends the life of the
disposable cylinder by minimizing electrode coverage and reducing energy use because the high
concentration allows a minimal drain rate. When 80% FLA is reached, the fill valve will open,
refilling the cylinder to 100% FLA. On occasion, the drain valve will also come on if the water level is
too low, indicating too high a concentration and the need to dilute the water in the cylinder. If the
water reaches the top of the cylinder before 100% FLA, the fill valve shuts Off via the sensor, and the
fill-boil-fill-boil cycle continues, cycling Off the red high water sensor light until the concentration
becomes high enough to reach 100% FLA. The above-described control process will then take over.
Figure 100 General diagram—humidifier operation
NOTE
The Liebert iCOM control monitors the condition of the air discharging from the unit to protect
neighboring electronic equipment. The Liebert iCOM will prevent the humidifier from
activating if the discharge air is near its saturation point. This protects against discharging
fog from the unit or condensation forming on the unit’s supply air baffles. This protection mode
is activated when the supply air leaving the unit is below 64°F (17.8°C) or above 55% relative
humidity. The Liebert iCOM screen will display “Humidifier Suspended.” The screen will
display “Humidifier Resumed” when the protection mode resets at 67°F (19.4°C).
Humidifier
117 Liebert® CRV
A.1.1 Humidifier Water Supply and Plumbing
The fill valve is sized for an extended water pressure range of 30 to 80 psi.
For installations where water pressure is less than 15 psi, add a pressure boost pump and notify the
factory; a fill valve with an oversized opening will be supplied.
For installations where water pressure is greater than 80 psi, install a pressure reducing valve in the
water feed line to the unit.
With dirty or muddy water sources (e.g., some well sources), ensure proper filtration by adding an
external filter to the water line entering the unit. (Consult factory for accessories such as filters.)
NOTICE
Risk of improper water supply. Can reduce humidifier efficiency or obstruct humidifier
plumbing.
Do not use completely demineralized water with this unit; it is the minerals that allow the
electrode principle to work.
Do not use a hot water source; it will cause deposits that will eventually block the fill valve
opening.
A.1.2 Humidifier Water Connection
A copper compression olive type coupling for 1/4" O.D. soft copper tubing is provided with the unit and
requires no soldering for the water connection to the unit.
An isolating valve should ALWAYS be placed in the feed water line to allow service of the fill valve.
Each unit is fitted with a fill solenoid valve located on the base drain pan.
Flow openings are designed for water pressure from 30 to 80 psi and are protected by the built-in
strainer.
For inlet water pressure outside this range, the factory should be contacted.

A.1.3 Humidifier Startup and Operation
Ambient temperature location for humidifier: 41 - 104°F (5 - 40°C).
Relative humidity location for humidifiers: 5 - 80% RH.
Check to see that the unit is securely mounted on a level surface with the proper drain and water
supply. Check for correct voltage with appropriately sized service. Check that the steam distributor,
steam supply hose and condensate line are correctly installed and routed back to the unit.
Check all electrical connections for wires that may have become loose in shipping. Components
damaged because of loose connections are NOT under warranty.
Check electrode plugs to ensure they are pressed firmly onto the electrode pins. Important: Loose
connections will cause overheating of the cylinder plugs, possibly melting the plugs and/or cylinder.
1. Open the isolating valve in the feed water line to the unit.
2. Make sure the Liebert iCOM® is set high enough to call for humidification.
3. Turn on the main disconnect in the primary service feeding the unit and check that unit has
power at the primary terminal block.
4. Push the auto On/Off/Drain Switch to “On.”
Water will start to enter the cylinder through its bottom port and rise in the cylinder to a point
determined by the solid state control circuitry. It is not unusual upon initial startup for the water to
fill the cylinder and cycle on the red high-water sensor light.
The red light simply acts as a safety to shut off the fill valve and prevent overfilling. With the red
light on, the water in the cylinder will continue to heat and, after a few minutes, start to boil. After
the boiling of the water has lowered the water level below the sensor at the top of the cylinder, the red
light will go out and the fill solenoid will again open until the cylinder is again full. This cycling of the
red light and fill valve will continue until the unit's full output capacity is reached, after which the
water level will automatically lower itself in the cylinder. (The increased concentration allows for
lower electrode coverage while maintaining the same output.) When a stabilized condition is reached,
the water will be boiling close to the cylinder seam level. The solid state circuitry will maintain the
proper concentration in the cylinder by introducing short drains only when necessary. If the cylinder
is manually drained, the above process will repeat itself.
A.1.4 Low Water Conductivity
Should normalization of the unit be required immediately after startup, the installer may speed up
the process by artificially increasing water conductivity. During a fill cycle, the installer should
dissolve half a teaspoon of table salt (no more) in a cup of water and add it to the cylinder by means of
the fill cup attached to the plumbing section. Open the plumbing compartment and add salt solution
through cylinder outlet. Excessive amounts of salt will result in erratic operation of the unit; however,
normalization of the unit will occur automatically through the solid-state control sequence.
A.1.5 Cylinder Replacement
NOTICE
Risk of improper operation. Can cause equipment damage.
The steam cylinder is disposable and must be replaced at the end of cylinder life. Cylinder life
depends on water supply conditions and humidifier usage. Failure to replace the cylinder at
the end of cylinder life may result in unit damage.
After an extended period of operation, the cylinder will be completely used, as indicated by the red
high-water sensor light illuminated on the cabinet. When this condition is reached, a new
replacement cylinder must be installed.
Contact Emerson or your local Emerson representative to obtain a replacement cylinder. To obtain
the correct cylinder, supply the cylinder model from the white three-digit label on the cylinder, or
supply the model, voltage and serial number from the unit specification label.
NOTE
The red light may come on during initial startup, but this does not mean the cylinder must be
replaced. See 9.0 Startup and 12.0 Operation.
Humidifier
119 Liebert® CRV
Remove the Old Cylinder
1. Turn Off the water supply to the unit.
2. The old cylinder must be drained completely before removing. This is done by pushing the auto
On/Off/Drain switch to the “drain” position.
3. When the cylinder is empty, push the auto On/Off/Drain switch to the Off position.
4. Open the main disconnect switch during the entire cylinder change operation.
5. The power wires to the cylinder are attached by cylinder plugs to the electrode pins on top of the
cylinder. Pull these plugs off the pins.
6. Using a slotted screwdriver, loosen the steam hose clamp(s) and pull the steam hose off.
The cylinder is now ready to be lifted out of the unit.
Installing the New Cylinder
1. Leave the main disconnect open until the cylinder is completely installed and reconnected.
2. Ensure that the cylinder mounting stubs are seated properly in the allotted side mounting slots
within the unit.
3. The white sensor plug on all units is for the sensor pin, which always goes on the single pin offset
from the others.
4. Ensure that cylinder plugs are snug on the pins.
5. Replace loose-fitting plugs; loose plugs may generate enough heat to melt and destroy the plug,
and new cylinder plugs must be ordered.
Reverse the procedure to install a new cylinder.
Figure 102 Sensor pins, cylinder plugs
Humidifier Maintenance
Extended Shutdown
Always drain the cylinder before disconnecting power to the humidifier for a period of extended
shutdown. Otherwise, the electrodes are subject to harmful corrosion, which drastically shortens the
cylinder life. Do not leave the switch in the DRAIN position indefinitely because the drain coil could
burn out. Leave the switch in the Off position and open the main external fused disconnect to stop
power to the humidifier. Close the shutoff valve in the water supply line feeding the humidifier.
!
WARNING
Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death.

A.1.6 Humidifier Troubleshooting
Terms Used
FLA (Full Load Amps) are amps listed on the humidifier specification label.
Short cycling occurs when the humidifier’s “On time” is less than 10 minutes upon a call for
humidity. To correct short cycling, all humidifiers have a capacity adjustment that allows the out-
put of the humidifier to be reduced to as low as 20% of rated output, thus extending the “on time”
required to maintain output.
Foaming can occur when the impurities already in water reach an excess concentration as a
result of boiling away water and continued boiling agitates the contained water. The humidifier
electronics are designed to prevent foaming, although in extreme cases water will foam with little
concentration, making it necessary to increase the drain time of the water contained in the cylin-
der. Foaming is normally caused by short cycling, a restricted drain or back pressure. The foam
generated in these instances is conductive and may lead to false full-cylinder indication if the
level of the foam approaches the top of the cylinder.
Back pressure is the restriction of steam flow caused by long steam runs, improperly sloped
steam lines, elbows changing the direction of steam flow from horizontal to vertical without a
drain leg, any plumbing detail allowing the accumulation of condensate, undersized steam line,
improper steam distributor, downward air flow onto the distributor causing excess static pressure
at the steam outlets, or high static pressure ducts (not probable). To overcome excess static pres-
sure in the duct, use a fill cup extension kit. In downflow applications, a downflow distributor
should be used, but in some cases the fill cup extension will also be required.
Reset unit (humidifier): To reset the humidifier, switch the auto On/Off/Drain switch at the front
of the humidifier to the Off position for at least five seconds, then switch it back to the On position.
Monitored leg is the primary wire to the cylinder that loops through the current sensing device
of the main PCB. This wire ends at the red cylinder plug at the cylinder.

A.3 STARTING POINT
Auto On/Off/Drain switch in On position—unit will not fill:
When the On/Off control circuit is made and the Auto On/Off/Drain switch is pushed to On, the 24V
holding coil of the primary contactor should energize. The resulting magnetic pull closes the high
voltage contacts with a distinct and audible “clunk.” If the contactor will not make the connection,
then inspect the following while referring to the wiring diagram:
Check for 24V across terminals 18 and 26 on the PC board.
The low-voltage 3A fuse located in the control box may be blown.
The contactor holding coil may be open or shorted.
The switch may be defective.
Recheck that the Auto On/Off/Drain switch is still On. If it is, shut off the main disconnect and check
fuses or breaker of the main disconnect. If they are serviceable, turn power back on.
To test for a defective Auto On/Off/Drain switch, connect a wire from the fuse directly to Terminal 6
on the external controls strip. If the contactor activates, the On side of the switch is defective. If the
contactor does not activate, the PC board could be defective.
If the 3A control fuse blows when the wire from the fuse touches Terminal 6 on the external controls
strip, the contactor holding coil may be shorted. Replace contactor if necessary.
After the necessary components have been replaced and the contactor pulls in, there is line voltage to
the cylinder and the control sequence can begin.
Approximately 30 seconds after the contactor pulls in, the fill valve coil should energize. There is also
a visible fill relay on the printed circuit board. It is the one located farthest from the C.T. core. The
points on this relay must be touching in order for the fill valve coil to be energized. If the points do not
touch after the built-in time delay, the sensor input may be interfering. To confirm, remove the black
and red sensor wires from terminals 6 and 10 on the PC board. Wait 30 seconds and, if the fill relay
points do not touch, replace the sensor. If they still do not touch, the basic PC board may be faulty. To
confirm, disconnect the red wire from terminal 18 and touch it to terminal 14. If the fill valve coil
activates, the basic PC board should be replaced. If it still does not activate, the fill valve coil should
be replaced. After the necessary components have been changed, water will start filling the cylinder
and begin to submerge the electrodes. Because of the high voltage across the electrodes, the water can
now conduct electricity.
Red “Change Cylinder” light on—Water at top of cylinder:
This is a common occurrence on startup. See 9.0 Startup and 12.0 Operation.
Water remains at high level and won't concentrate:
This is normal on cold startup and can be accelerated by adding a maximum of 1/2 tsp. of dissolved
salt to the cylinder on fill cycle through the plastic fill cup. See A.1.4 Low Water Conductivity.
If the unit has been operating extensively, observe for normal fill-boil-fill-boil cycle; no drainage
should occur. If drainage occurs, check for leaking drain valve or back pressure.
Unit drains continually:
May be caused by foaming and/or back pressure or by a leaking drain valve.
If cylinder is almost empty, check for magnetic pull on drain solenoid indicating miswiring. If there is
no pull, drain actuator is blocked open; remove, disassemble and clean.
If drain is occurring through activated drain valve, valve is miswired or electronics are faulty; consult
factory.
If drain is occurring through the overflow on the fill cup, this is due to abnormal restriction on the
steam line and back pressure forcing water out of the cylinder so water cannot concentrate and level
remains high. Review installation of steam line to ensure there are no blockages or excessive static
pressure in the air system.
Humidifier
Liebert® CRV122
Table 31 Humidifier troubleshooting
Unit Status Lamp
Symptom Corrective actions Yellow Green
On On Maximum water level inside
cylinder.
This usually happens on initial start-up after replacing the
cylinder (normal). Water is concentrated with minerals
inside the cylinder. Let unit run; yellow light will disappear
when the unit is at full output. This may take a day or two.
Off Off No power to the board.
Check for main power supply fault. Turn power switch to
'Drain' position. If drain valve is activated (sound of
solenoid), check connection to the board or board itself.
When no sound is present, check fuse (replace with 3.0 A if
needed), transformer (voltage should be present between
fuse holder and ground screw).
1 flash
sequence Off
Excess current. Operating
amperage exceeded 130% of rated
amps. Water is drained from the
cylinder (drain valve on for 10
minutes).
Check drain valve operation, drain time, possible drain
restrictions. Check fill valve for leaks (not holding supply
water). Back pressure may also cause very conductive
water conditions. Was the humidifier short cycling? Check
for short cycling. Water conductivity too high.
2 flashes in
sequence Off No current detection for 30 minutes
with continuous call for humidity.
Check water level in the cylinder - should be more than 1/4
full. If not, check fill rate, 24 VAC voltage on fill valve
terminals (unit must be on with call for humidity - green light
on steadily). Verify fresh water supply to the humidifier.
Leaking drain valve may be at fault (minerals blocking the
plunger). If cylinder is more than 1/4 full, check primary
power, connections to the cylinder, continuity of wires to
cylinder. Are power wires connected to proper terminals on
the cylinder? (Color coding.) Possibly wrong cylinder type.
Low water conductivity.
4 flashes in
sequence Off End of cylinder life - change
cylinder.
Check water level in the cylinder; should be about 3/4 full.
Check for foaming if water level is lower or cylinder life
shorter than expected. Change cylinder, clean drain valve.

APPENDIX B-ELECTRICAL DATA
NOTICE
Risk of exceeding line-to-ground limit. Can cause equipment damage.
The electrically commutated (EC) motors included in 480V CR035 and CR040 units are
suitable for connection to power supplies with 300V or less line to ground potential. Excess
line-to-ground voltage can cause capacitor failure internal to the motors.
Power supplies such as 480V WYE with solidly grounded neutral have 277V line to ground
and are acceptable.
Power supplies such as 480V WYE with high resistance (or impedance) ground, 480V delta
without ground or with floating ground, 480V delta with corner ground or 480V delta with
grounded center tap will exceed the 300V line-to-ground limit.
