Fantrol is a system for progressively turning on or off condenser
fans when they are no longer required.

is accomplished by a combination of pressure and temperature actuated
controls. The first fan (No. 11) is started by its contactor when
the first compressor in the unit starts.
controlled by a pair of parallel wired pressure switches, one of
which senses condenser pressure in refrigerant circuit No. 1, and
one which senses pressure in refrigerant circuit No. 2.
fan (No. 13-3 fan units only) is controlled by a pair of parallel
wired temperature switches, one of which senses condenser air inlet
temperature for refrigerant circuit No. 1 and one for circuit No. 2.
Pressure temperature control set points are indicated below.
To check the cut-in points of the controls, the unit must initially
be off. With the unit prepared for start up according to the proce-
dures outlined in this bulletin, move pumpdown switches (PSl & PS2)

270 PSIG, contactor Ml2 should pull in to start fan No. 12.
fan units, fan No. 13 should start via contactor Ml3 whenever the
ambient air at the condenser inlet reaches 80F.
It may be difficult to check the cut-out point of fan No. 13 (on 3
fan units) at the instant it happens, but it should be off whenever
the ambient air at the condenser inlet is below 70F.
