IMPORTANT: The factory-supplied piston MUST
be installed as shown in Fig. 13.
NOTE: DO NOT install a piston on 38HDS systems. Re-
frigerant control is handled by a TXV (thermostatic ex-
pansion valve) in the 38HDS unit in these systems.
For special applications, such as long lines or raised el-
evations, consult the Application Data section of the Prod-
uct Data literature for specific system requirements. The
arrow on the AccuRater device body must face away from
the indoor coil.
