Just waiting for the pumps seals to start leaking shortly.[bighmmm]
I wanted them to put some sort of filter in the plant room,with a pump sucking from a 50mm tapping in the bottom of the horizontal section of the return header,then back into the system,but they didn't want to.
The water in the system looks the same colour as the Brisbane river[biggrin]
Oh well,we will do it the difficult way.[thumbsupbig]
So the Christmas break is well and truly oner, Paul. [bigsad]Quote:

They've unloaded the cases and somehow the controller went back online so Tech support could isolate the alarm.
From 6am Friday to 6am Saturday booked out an actual 20 hours.
Got two hours sleep before a storm woke me and then the phone started ringing again.
It took 4 coffees to try and get going and back into it until the boss found out and sent me home at 12:30 and cancelled the four pending jobs, said I need a minimum 6hr break.
Back into it at 7:30pm, through to 2:30am Sunday, then started again at 8:30 Sunday to I can't remember when and then another 9 hours Monday, 12 hours Tuesday and 8 to 8 so far today, oops yesterday.
Bring on autumn.
And at least another tech on staff!!!!
I'm amazed your pump seals are hanging in there Paul.
That's not the sort of service call you need to be doing on a chiller.
I'm going to send Scotty my old apprentice those pics to scare him.
He works for Veolia as a chiller tech now. [emoji23]
We were messaging around midnight Saturday, he doesn't aspire to be a supermarket tech any more after seeing the hours I do now!
Can't understand why? [emoji848][emoji849]
There is one compensation, the D2 has had a few more goodies ordered. [emoji16][emoji6]
If i got caught working those sort of hours it would cost me thousands of dollars.
Take care Rick, a nanosleep can kill.
Got home at 6:45 this morning, 3am callout.
Ian, because I'm on call and these aren't dedicated shifts there's no legal obligation on how long I work and stand down times, which is insane, but like medical people we can be expected to work until we drop or drive into a tree. [emoji849]
Anyway, the latest was a CO2 leak in a freezer room, luckily an easy bodge, err fix to make things safe again but geez, the universe is conspiring to deny me sleep atm.
We have to be so careful with CO2.
Aside from the stupid pressures, if the pressure drops below, and I can't recall what it is atm, we have a solid block of internal CO2 ice, then we're stuffed.

I hope the first option is the one you'll take, just be careful where & when you do that, OK?
I have seen the results of someone choosing the 2nd option & it ain't noice.
This is the reason Inline Strainers are installed Paul, so you can get ****loads of Overtime & for the culprit or owner to make an Insurance claim & have some other turkey foot the bill. Just ensure you do quite nicely out of it.[biggrin]
The company pro'ly thinks they are going to put in a nice fat insurance claim and get new pumps and coils!Quote:

Well back there ATM,now we have a blocked 3/4 line going to one of the smaller AHU’s[bigsad]
Oh well now that will be interesting to sort,probably freeze it tomorrow with a plumber and cut out a section where we think the blockage is,doing it in such a way to stop getting any gravel and crap from getting into the coil....
