GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS These instructions and any instructions packaged with any IMPORTANT separate equipment required to make up the entire heat The equipment covered in this manual is to be installed by pump system should be carefully read before beginning the trained, experienced service and installation technicians.
INSTALLATION TYPICAL INSTALLATIONS LOCATION GENERAL ROOF MOUNTED – The unit is mounted on a sturdy base on the roof of the building. Return air to the unit The unit must be located outside, or in a well ventilated is brought through a single return grille (grilles with area.

AIR FILTERS OTHER INSTALLATIONS – Many other installations are possible with the packaged heat Air filters for the return air side of the system are not pump. No matter what the installation, always provided as part of the various types of applications for consider the following facts: these models, and must be field supplied and installed as A.
WIRING – MAIN POWER The unit rating plate lists a “Maximum Time Delay Fuse” or “HACR” type circuit breaker that is to be used with the Refer to the unit rating plate for wire sizing information equipment. The correct size must be used for proper circuit and maximum fuse size.

START UP AND OPERATION SEQUENCE OF OPERATION THREE PHASE SCROLL COMPRESSOR START UP INFORMATION COOLING – Circuit R-Y makes at thermostat pulling in compressor contactor starting the compressor and outdoor Scroll compressors, like several other types of compressors, motor. The G (indoor motor) circuit is automatically will only compress in one rotational direction.
DEFROST CYCLE There is a cycle speed up jumper on the control. This can be used to reduce the time between defrost cycle operation The defrost cycle is controlled by temperature and time on without waiting for time to elapse. the solid state heat pump control.
TROUBLESHOOTING SOLID STATE HEAT PUMP CONTROL 4. Set system switch to heat or cool. Adjust thermostat to TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE call for heat or cool. The indoor blower, compressor, and outdoor fan should start. 1. Turn on AC power supply to unit. NOTE: If there is no power to 24 volt transformer, the 2.
CHECKING TEMPERATURE SENSOR 3. Check resistance reading to chart of resistance; use CHECK OUT sensor ambient temperature. (Tolerance of part is ± 10%.) 1. Disconnect temperature sensor from board and from outdoor coil. 4. If sensor resistance reads very low, then sensor is shorted and will not allow proper operation of the heat 2.
SERVICE TABLE 13 SERVICE HINTS REFRIGERANT CHARGE ° 5 ° 2 1. Caution homeowner to maintain clean air filters at all times. Also, not to needlessly close off supply and f r i return air registers. This reduces airflow through the system, which shortens equipment service life as well as increasing operating costs.
SUCTION AND DISCHARGE TUBE – Reinsert tube into fitting. BRAZING – Heat tube uniformly in Area 1 moving slowly to Compliant Scroll compressors have copper plated steel Area 2. When joint reaches brazing temperature, apply brazing material. (See Figure 14.) suction and discharge tubes.
TROUBLESHOOTING GE ECM MOTORS ™ Symptom Cause/Procedure CAUTION: • Noisy blower or cabinet • Check for loose blower housing, panels, etc. Disconnect power from unit before removing or replacing • High static creating high blower speed? connectors, or servicing motor. To avoid electric shock - Check for air whistling through seams in from the motor’s capacitors, disconnect power and wait at ducts, cabinets or panels...
