SUPPLEMENTAL INSTRUCTIONS
CMA-38 Low Ambient 460V Fan Speed Control
The CMA-38 is a field-installable low ambient fan
speed control for 460V motors. The CMA-38 460V
head pressure control helps maintain the correct
condensing temperature/pressure, which results in a
constant head pressure. By adjusting the condenser
fan speed, the CMA-38 controls the airflow through
the condenser. A single desired temperature/pressure
setpoint adjustment will result in precise condensing
temperatures and stable head pressures.
The CMA-38 kit is for use with Bard models W24AB-C
wall-mount air conditioners.
The CMA-38 kit consists of:
