REFRIGERATION CIRCUIT Starting at the compressor (see Figure 2.16), the suction gas is compressed to a higher pressure and temperature. The gas flows through the discharge service valve into the pressure regulating valve. During periods of low ambi- ent operation, the discharge pressure regulating valve maintains the flow of refrigerant to a preset minimum dis- charge pressure.
SECTION 3 MICROPROCESSOR TEMPERATURE CONTROL MICROPROCESSOR The temperature control Micro-Link 3 microprocessor system consists of a keypad, display module, control module (controller), and interconnecting wiring. This section addresses functions specific to the dual temperature platform. For more detailed system information, refer to Section 3 of the Operations and Service manual for 69NT40-541- 300 to 349 series units.
3.1.2 Keypad The keypad (Figure 3.2) is mounted on the right-hand side of the control box. The keypad consists of 11 push but- ton switches that act as the user’s interface with the controller. Descriptions of the switch functions are provided in Table 3–1.
Table 3–1 Keypad Function FUNCTION Arrow Up Change or scroll a selection upward Pre-trip advance or test interruption. Arrow Down Change or scroll a selection downward. Pre-trip repeat backward. Return/Supply Displays non-controlling probe temperature (momentary display). Degrees C/F Displays alternate English/Metric scale (momentary display). When set to degrees Fahren- heit, pressure is displayed in psig and vacuum in “/hg.
3.2.2 Remote Compartment Set Point Change (SEtPt) For independent readings of remote set point and supply or return air temperature, use the following steps: 1. Ensure Cd52 is enabled and press the ENTER key. 2. The left display window will display “SEtPt”. 3.
2. The right display window will display the current defrost interval - either 3, 6, 9, 12, or 24 hours. 3. To change defrost interval, use the arrow keys to toggle to the new interval and press the ENTER key. If the ENTER key is not pressed, the interval will not be changed.
Some alarms requiring compressor shutdown have time delays before and after to try to keep the compressor on line. An example is alarm code “LO”, (low main voltage). When a voltage drop of over 25% occurs, an indication is given on the display, but the unit will continue to run. An alarm is indicated by flashing an alarm code on the display panel, and for some alarms, by the alarm light illumi- nating.
Table 3–3 Remote Controller Alarm Indications CODE TITLE DESCRIPTION rAL15 Remote Evaporator Alarm 15 is triggered when the RESMV is greater than 20% for a period Loss of Cool of 4 minutes, the RLSV is open, and the compressor has run check for a temperature delta of 1 degree C across the remote coil.
Table 3–4 Remote Controller Pre-Trip Test Codes CODE TITLE DESCRIPTION NOTE The following pre-trip codes perform diagnostic checks on main components of the remote evaporator component when Code 52 (Cd52) is active. The system must be configured for a Dual Temperature Unit for pre-trip codes to be activated.
SECTION 4 OPERATION INSPECTION (BEFORE STARTING) WARNING Beware of unannounced starting of the evaporator and condenser fans. The unit may cycle the fans and compressor unexpectedly as control requirements dictate. If container is empty, check inside for the following: 1. Check channels or “T” bar floor for cleanliness. Channels must be free of debris for proper air circulation. 2.
STARTING AND STOPPING INSTRUCTIONS WARNING Make sure that the unit circuit breaker(s) (CB-1 & CB-2) and the START-STOP switch (ST) are in the “O” (OFF) position before connecting to any electrical power source. 4.3.1 Starting the Unit 1. With power properly applied, the fresh air damper set and (if required) the water-cooled condenser con- nected, place the START-STOP switch to “I”...

b. TO RUN AN INDIVIDUAL TEST: Scroll through the selections by pressing the UP ARROW or DOWN ARROW keys to display an individual test code. Pressing ENTER when the desired test code is displayed. • Individually selected tests, other than the LED/Display test, will perform the operations necessary to ver- ify the operation of the component.
SECTION 5 TROUBLESHOOTING NOTE This section contains information specific to the dual temperature system. For additional troubleshoot- ing information, refer to Section 5 of the Operation and Service Manual for 69NT40-541-300 to 399 series units. CONDITION POSSIBLE CAUSE REMEDY REMOTE EVAPORATOR NOT RUNNING Remote evaporator does not run Host unit has not reached set point.
SECTION 6 DUAL TEMPERATURE SERVICE NOTE To avoid damage to the earth’s ozone layer, use a refrigerant recovery system whenever removing refrigerant. When working with refrigerants, you must comply with all local government environmental laws. In the United States, refer to EPA section 608. NOTE This section addresses functions specific to the dual temperature platform.

The pump is available from Carrier Transicold (P/N 07-00176-11). 3. If possible, keep the ambient temperature above 15.6° C (60° F) to speed evaporation of moisture. If the ambient temperature is lower than 15.6°...
NOTE 24 VAC of power must be provided from TRX1 of the control transformer to KB1 and KC3 to energize HLSV and RLSV respectively, using a jumper wire. HLSV and RLSV must be opened for full system evacuation. 6.6.3 Procedure - Complete System 1.
8. Repeat steps 5. and 6. one time. 9. Remove the copper tubing and change the filter-drier. Evacuate unit to 500 microns. Close the electronic vacuum gauge and vacuum pump valves. Shut off the vacuum pump. Wait five minutes to see if vacuum holds.
3. Fully backseat the suction service valve and remove the service port cap. 4. Connect charging line between suction service valve port and cylinder of refrigerant R-134a. Open VAPOR valve. 5. Partially frontseat (turn clockwise) the suction service valve and slowly add charge until the refrigerant appears at the proper level.
a. Replacing the Coil NOTE The coil may be replaced without removing the refrigerant or pumping the unit down. 1. Unplug from wiring harness, remove coil retainer and coil assembly. 2. Verify coil type, voltage and frequency. This information appears on the coil housing. 3.
