  • Page 8: Wiring

    Section 3 Wiring Wiring • All electrical connections and routing must comply with local and national codes. • Do not modify the factory installed wiring without written factory approval. • The field wiring must enter through the knockouts provided. • Refer to the nameplate on the condensing or evaporator coil to determine the proper electrical power supply.
  • Page 9: Piping

    Section 4 Piping Piping • All refrigeration piping and components are to be installed in accordance with applicable local and national codes and in conformance with industry refrigeration guidelines to ensure proper operation of the refrigeration system. • Only refrigeration grade copper tubing should be used. •...
  • Page 10: Oil Traps

    Oil Traps To ensure proper oil return to the compressor, a P-type oil trap should be installed at the base of each suction riser of • four feet or more. • The suction trap must be the same size as the suction line. Additional traps are necessary for long vertical risers.
  • Page 11: Pre-Charged Lines

    Pre-Charged lines and Quick Connects • Route the suction and liquid line sets between the condensing unit and evaporator coil following the piping guidelines identified in this manual. Remove the dust caps from the quick connect fittings and verify that the o-rings are intact. •...
  • Page 12: Leak Testing

    • All joints and components, both factory and field installed, should be thoroughly inspected for leaks. • The system installation must be leak free! Leak Testing “PR” model systems • Open both the liquid and suction service valves. • Ensure the solenoid valve is energized and open.
  • Page 13: Pc Models

    A reliable rotary vacuum pump with an accurate deep vacuum gauge is recommended. • Do not use the system compressor as a vacuum pump and do not operate the compressor while the system is under vacuum. Evacuation of “PR” model systems • Open both the liquid and suction service valves. •...
  • Page 14: Pcl Models

    Evacuation of “PCL” model systems “ • PCL” systems do not require evacuation. CAUTION Do not use the system compressor to evacuate the system. Do not start the compressor while the system is under vacuum. This may damage to the compressor and cause premature system failure. Refrigerant Charging •...

    Section 5 Operational Start-Up Pre-Start Checks The first 2 – 4 hours of operation after initial start-up is a critical time. • Do not just start the system and leave. • Pressure values, compressor and evaporator superheat, and inspecting for excessive vibrations and loose connections •...
  • Page 16: Start-Up

    Start-Up CAUTION Do not start the system while in a vacuum. Do not leave the system unattended until normal operating conditions are achieved. • Operate the system for a minimum of two hours and perform checks of the following: Check the compressor discharge and suction pressures to ensure they are in the normal operating range. Check the liquid line sight glass for proper refrigerant charge (based off of 105ºF condenser coil).
  • Page 17: Evaporator Superheat

    Evaporator Superheat • Check the evaporator superheat once the walk-in has reached the desired temperature. Generally, systems with a design temperature drop of 10°F should have an evaporator superheat value of 6°-10°F on freezers and 8°-12°F on coolers for maximum efficiency. •...
  • Page 18: Arcticfox Thermostat With Lda

    CAUTION Minimum compressor superheat of 20°F may override these recommendations on systems with short line runs. CAUTION The condensing unit must have the discharge pressure above the equivalent 105°F condensing pressure (reference refrigerant charging on page 16). CAUTION Correct location and full contact of the expansion valve bulb is extremely important for proper system performance. ArcticFox Thermostat With LDA •...
