System Start-Up - Raypak 5100 Owner's Manual

NOTE: The heat pump will not run when the Remote position is selected
and there is no remote control system attached.
Defrost Switch: Prevents heat pump operation if ambient air temperature falls below a
predetermined safe minimum (approximately 42-48° F, based on humidity). The compressor will
shut OFF but the fan will continue to run.
Delay Timer: Prevents compressor from short cycling, which could damage or destroy the
hermetic motor/compressor. Upon water temperature control satisfaction, or other circuit
interruptions, this solid state device will prevent compressor restart for approximately 5 minutes.
Refrigerant Low Pressure Control: Stops the compressor and fan if refrigerant suction (low
side) pressure falls too low as a result of a malfunction or loss of charge.
Indicator Lamps: There are 3 indicator lamps located on the unit control panel:
