My another doubt is that , thy have placed a pump between 2 fahus ...when i asked thy told its for pre cooling...can any1 explain y thy did tht...?

need more information. but since chillers are surrounded by cold water, typically the sapce they are in don't need extra cooling.

Ventialtion needs likely are driven by what else is in the room and refirgerant leakage (also may need refrigerant alarm system) ber ASHRAE 15/34
 
To the OP:
The way you write displays a lazy attitude which does not befit someone just starting a career.I would suggest going through the chiller installation manual where all clearances are stated.
 
tht wthr . bcz...
My another doubt is that , thy 2 fahus thy told its for pre cooling, any1 explain y thy did tht...?
 
If you have an actual question you should state it.

In complete sentences.

With proper use of punctuation, capitalization, and vowels.

If English is not your first language there is an English assistance forum here - although text gibberish is not supported.

Not doing so will simply result in your post being ignored by those most able to offer help.
 
In addition, a diagram would be most helpful.

Best to you,

Goober Dave
