FIGURE 29
The Cornelius series remote systems use an Alco Head Pressure Control, normally referred to as a
headmaster. This control is mounted in the remote condenser with a fan cycling control switch. Using
both these controls gives the system positive operation under a wide range of condensing temperatures.
The cycling control starts the fan at 270 PSI and stops it at 205 PSI allowing a positive efficient operation
at the high temperature operating ranges (See Figure 29).
