PRE-START-UP / START-UP

WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or
death.
1. Follow recognized safety practices and wear approved
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including safety
glasses and gloves when checking or servicing refrigerant
system.
2. Do not use a torch to remove any component. System
contains oil and refrigerant under pressure. To remove a
component, wear PPE and proceed as follows:
a. Shut off all electrical power to unit. Apply applicable
lockout/tag-out procedures.
b. Recover refrigerant to relieve all pressure from sys-
tem using both high-pressure and low pressure ports.
c. Do not use a torch. Cut component connection tubing
with tubing cutter and remove component from unit.
d. Carefully un-sweat remaining tubing stubs when
necessary. Oil can ignite when exposed to torch
flame.
3. Do not operate compressor or provide any electric power
to unit unless compressor terminal cover is in place and
secured.
4. Do not remove compressor terminal cover until all electri-
cal power is disconnected and approved lockout/tag-out
procedures are in place.
5. Relieve all pressure from system before touching or dis-
turbing anything inside terminal box whenever refriger-
ant leak is suspected around compressor terminals.
6. Never attempt to repair a soldered connection while
refrigerant system is under pressure.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or
death.
The unit must be electrically grounded in accordance with lo-
cal codes and NEC ANSI/NFPA 70 (American National Stan-
dards Institute/National Fire Protection Association).
Proceed as follows to inspect and prepare the unit for initial start-
up:
1. Remove all access panels.
2. Read and follow instructions on all WARNING, CAUTION,
and INFORMATION labels attached to, or shipped with,
unit.
PERSONAL INJURY AND ENVIRONMENTAL
HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could cause personal injury or
death.
Relieve pressure and recover all refrigerant before system re-
pair or final unit disposal.
Wear safety glasses and gloves when handling refrigerants.
Keep torches and other ignition sources away from refriger-
ants and oils.
3. Perform the following inspections:
a. Inspect for shipping and handling damages such as bro-
ken lines, loose parts, or disconnected wires, etc.
b. Inspect for oil at all refrigerant tubing connections and
on unit base. Detecting oil generally indicates a refriger-
ant leak. Leak-test all refrigerant tubing connections
using electronic leak detector, halide torch, or liquid-
soap solution.
c. Inspect all field-wiring and factory-wiring connections.
Ensure all connections are completed and tight. Ensure
all electrical wires are not in contact with refrigerant tub-
ing or sharp edges.
d. Inspect coil fins. If damaged during shipping and han-
dling, carefully straighten fins with a fin comb.
4. Verify the following conditions:
a. Ensure that condenser-fan blades are correctly posi-
tioned in fan orifice. See Condenser-Fan Adjustment
section for more details.
b. Ensure all air filters are in place.
c. Ensure that condensate drain trap is filled with water to
ensuring proper drainage.
d. Ensure that all tools and miscellaneous loose parts have
been removed.

START-UP, GENERAL

IMPORTANT: Follow the base unit's start-up sequence as
described in the unit's installation instructions.
In addition to the base unit start-up, there are a few steps needed to
properly start-up the controls. RTU-OPEN's Service Test function
should be used to assist in the base unit start-up and also allows
verification of output operation. Controller configuration is also
part of start-up. This is especially important when field accessories
have been added to the unit. The factory pre-configures options in-
stalled at the factory. There may also be additional installation
steps or inspection required during the start-up process.

Additional Installation/Inspection

Inspect the field installed accessories for proper installation, mak-
ing note of which ones do or do not require configuration changes.
Inspect the RTU-OPEN's Alarms for initial insight to any poten-
tial issues. See troubleshooting section for alarms. Inspect the SAT
sensor for relocation as intended during installation. Inspect spe-
cial wiring as directed in the following sections.
