carrier 30gx080 external oil filter direction

[upyourkilt]

Just took over a new account with 2-30GX080-521 with multiple oil failure problems. First, what is the correct flow direction of the external oil filter? Kid you not, both units have filter directions opposite to one another.

Hi
these oil filters should have arrows on them ,follow oil flow direction,
and install accordingly!
i hope you will find this shortcut helpful!http://ecvest.com1.ru:8100/WWW/Cat/Ins/Chillers/Carrier/13173_phase1.pdf

I am aware of the arrows, just not sure on proper oil flow. With two circuits on each chiller, all external oil filters are opposite. Its got me confused. For example, circuit A chiller 1 has arrow away from compressorr. Circuit b chiller 1 it is pointing to the compressor. Circuit a chiller 2 arrow pointing to compressor and circuit b chiller 2 points away from compressor.

The arrow should point towards the compressor as it filters the oil flowing to the compressor, make
Sure you oil heaters are operational have you checked the internal filters max diff
Between dishcharge and oil pressure is 100kpa
