8 SYSTEM OPERATION

8.1 Compressor Crankcase Heater

(Optional)
Refrigerant migration during the off cycle can result in a
noisy start up. Add a crankcase heater to minimize
refrigeration migration, and to help eliminate any start up
noise or bearing "wash out".
All heaters are located on the lower half of the
compressor shell. Its purpose is to drive refrigerant from
the compressor shell during long off cycles, thus
preventing damage to the compressor during start-up.
At initial start-up or after extended shutdown periods,
make sure the heater is energized for at least 12 hours
before the compressor is started. (Disconnect switch on
and wall thermostat off.)
The crankcase heater will start up or shut down
according to the following logic:
The crankcase heater will start up when the compressor
is off and T4<41°F.
The crankcase heater will shut down when T4 ≥ 45 °F
In any condition, the crankcase heater will shut down
when the compressor is on

8.2 Protection

8.2.1 Protection for HP system
If sensors(T3&T4) become open-circuit or short-circuit,
the compressor ,outdoor fan motor and reversing valve
circuit will shut down.
Discharge temperature protection:
If discharge temp. is > 239°F, the compressor will shut
down, If discharge temp. is < 167°F, the compressor will
resume operation.

High pressure protection
If high pressure is >609PSIG,the compressor and the
outdoor fan motor will stop running.
If high pressure is <464PSIG,the compressor and the
outdoor fan motor will resume running(3 minutes delay
necessary ).
Low pressure protection
When low pressure is <21PSIG,the compressor and
the outdoor fan motor will stop running.
When low pressure is >44PSIG,the compressor and
the outdoor fan motor will resume running(3 minutes
delay necessary ).
In stand-by status, if low pressure protection was
detected, the compressor will not start.
If protection cycles occur four times within 30 minutes,
the compressor and outdoor fan will shut down. In this
condition, the system needs to power on once more in
order to keep on working.
T4 function:
When T4 is < 5 °F, the compressor will stop. If the
electrical heater kit is installed in the indoor unit, the
outdoor unit will send the operation signal to the indoor
unit.
When T4 is > 10.4 °F, the compressor will restart .
8.3 Defrost Mode Introduction
(Heat Pump Only)
Manual defrost mode
To manually cycle the defrost mode, set switch SW3-1
to the "ON" position (See Fig 8-1). The system will
engage a defrost cycle, and automatically exit defrost
mode once the Shut-down conditions of defrost mode
described below are met.
Caution: Once the manual defrost mode is finished,
please set switch SW3-1 back to "OFF".
