I spent 10 years as an industrial maintenance guy replaced tons of the kind of motors and starters good job buddy

[@subcoolHVAC]

Thanks MrAdam….I’ve lost count how many , I’m 24 yrs into these locations.

Energy mis-management…love it. Sorry we missed you laser aligning the motor to the pump.

[@subcoolHVAC]

👍 🔨No laser because it was mechanically aligned. Thanks for watching!

[@ccthepope]

Great Video! I see your subs going up!

[@subcoolHVAC]

Thanks, gaining altitude 👍

[@maddie22006]

Thanks for the consistent quality! Respect 👍

[@subcoolHVAC]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@jasonjohnsonHVAC]

Another day at the "office". Nicely done

[@subcoolHVAC]

Yeah buddy, Thanks Jason !!

[@stevencossaboon3237]

Nice work Subcool. Thank you for the knowledge.

[@subcoolHVAC]

Thanks for watching!

[@topher8634]

The starters where i work dont seem to protect against phase loss. A year ago the whole place dropped a leg due to a defective recloser and took both hot and chilled water pumps with it.

[@subcoolHVAC]

No they don’t, have to have motor saver installed to help with phase loss. Thanks for sharing

[@MarcosHVAC]

Iguanas? I was waiting for you to say rats 😂. Thanks for posting

[@subcoolHVAC]

Yep, it’s an invasion. There’s some big one. Thanks for watching

[@MrAdamd83]

I kinda miss them chiller repairs doing my on HVAC company now in Alabama

[@subcoolHVAC]

👍

Good video and call for fused legs on each motor.

[@subcoolHVAC]

Thanks for watching… stay tuned. There’s a follow up

[@brianliles4859]

I've had fused connected motor starters blow a single fuse single phasing the motor causing damage to the motor where as if the breaker was allowed to trip it would open all 3 phases not killing the motor.

[@subcoolHVAC]

This set up is strange, all 3 motors on 175 amp breaker.

[@joeyb774]

Nice work subcool!👍🏼

[@subcoolHVAC]

Thanks! 👍

[@mxslick50]

Those original overloads appeared to be the electronic type, so why was there no phase loss protection?

[@subcoolHVAC]

There’s phase monitor on the main breaker panel only. I’ve requested fused disconnects. Thanks for watching

[@svdleer]

I would suggest to get a meter which can measure phase rotation, the fieldpiece SC680 for example. great video

[@subcoolHVAC]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@chrissmith513]

That's crazy no fuses

[@subcoolHVAC]

Yes it is 👍

[@danielpelc3779]

I don’t suppose you have a video on setting up those sensors? I was always under the impression you needed special software and a laptop but it sure appeared as if you can do it without all that.

[@subcoolHVAC]

On older CH530’s I do use Trane software to bind sensors, these RTHD chillers can bind through the touchscreen with a PIN. I have an earlier video where I use the software on a CGAM. Thanks for asking Here’s a link :
