Start-Up 3.2.1 Inspection Before starting the truck engine or connecting standby power check the following: • Check condenser coil for cleanliness. • Check condition of refrigerant hoses. • Check condition and tension of compressor belt(s). • Check condition of condenser fan blade, motor and brushes. •...
If the unit is to be operated in the standby mode, connect power as follows: 1. Check that the external power source corresponds to the characteristics of the unit (see Section 2.6.3). The external power source circuit breaker must be open. 2.
3.2.6 Minimum Shut-Down Time on Standby The minimum shut-down for the standby compressor is five minutes after reaching setpoint. After this minimum shut-down period, the unit restarts when the temperature goes out of the cycling range by ± 1.8. 3.6 or 5.4°F (± 1, 2 or 3°C).

3.5.2 Low Battery Voltage Alarms There is a 40 second time delay during start-up. After this delay if the battery voltage drops below 10.5V ±0.5V, the microprocessor will react 20 seconds later and the unit will go out of temperature control mode. The microproces- sor will check the voltage after another 20 seconds.

• The defrost duration parameter is displayed. This setting determines the length of time in minutes the unit will remain in defrost once defrost is initiated. The defrost duration can be selected by scrolling through available options (10, 20, 25, 30 or 45 minutes) using the (+) or (-) keys. Selection MUST be validated by pressing the SET key.
• The return air temperature will be displayed after the above sequence. Adjusting Defrost Parameters: 1. Press the Unit shut-down key to turn off the unit. 2. Hold both DEFROST and ON keys momentarily in order to display parameters. 3. Use the + and - keys to modify parameters as needed. 4.

SECTION 4 Temperature Control Sequence Of Operation General operation sequences for cooling, null, and heating are provided in the following paragraphs. The micropro- cessor automatically selects the mode necessary to maintain box temperature at setpoint. 4.1.1 Cooling Mode a. With return air temperature above setpoint and decreasing, the unit will be cooling with the compressor and evaporator fans operating.
4.1.3 Frozen Mode The unit operates in the frozen mode with setpoints at or below 10°F (-12°C).Operation in the frozen mode is the same as in the perishable mode except no heating takes place. Figure 4.2 Operating Sequence - Frozen Mode +5.4°F (+3°C) COOL or +3.6°F (+2°C)
SECTION 5 Service WARNING Beware of unannounced starting of the unit. The unit may cycle the fans and one of the operat- ing compressors unexpectedly as control requirements dictate. To ensure unit is without power, remove power plug and remove battery negative cable. Maintenance Regular servicing is required in order to optimize the life and reliability of your unit.
Installing R-404A Manifold Gauge Set A manifold gauge/hose set is required for service of models covered within this manual. The manifold gauge/hose set is available from Carrier Transicold. (Carrier Transicold P/N 07-00314-00, which includes items 1 through 4, Figure 5.1). To perform service using the manifold gauge/hose set, do the following:...
Figure 5.1 Manifold Gauge Set (R-404A) Low Pressure Gauge High Pressure Gauge Closed (Frontseated) Opened (Backseated) Hand Valve Hand Valve To High Side To Low Side Access Valve Access Valve BLUE YELLOW (Blue Knob) (Red Knob) 1. Manifold Gauge Set 4.
CAUTION To prevent trapping liquid refrigerant in the manifold gauge set be sure set is brought to suc- tion pressure before disconnecting. 3. Backseat the low side service valve. Frontseat both manifold set hand valves. Remove the refrigeration hoses from the access valves. 4.
Removing the Refrigerant Charge Connect a refrigerant recovery system [Carrier P/N MVS-115-F-L-CT (115V) or MVS-240-F-L-CT (240V)] to the unit to remove refrigerant charge. Refer to instructions provided by the manufacturer of the refrigerant recovery system. 5.3.1 Pumping the Unit Down If Standby Is Available To service the moisture liquid indicator, liquid line check valve, expansion valve, quench valve, evaporator coil, compressor pressure regulating valve, or suction bypass valve, pump the refrigerant into the high side as fol-lows: 1.
5.5.2 Preparation 1. Evacuate and dehydrate only after pressure leak test (refer to Section 5.4). 2. Essential tools to properly evacuate and dehydrate any system include a good vacuum pump (5 cfm = H volume displacement, P/N07-00176-01) and a good vacuum indicator such as a thermocouple vac- uum gauge (vacuum indicator).
5.6.1 Checking the Refrigerant Charge Start unit in cooling mode. Run approximately ten minutes. Partially block off air flow to condenser coil increase the area blocked until compressor discharge pressure is raised to approximately 325 psig (22 Bars). The charge is correct if there are no bubbles at the liquid line sight glass. 5.6.2 Installing a Complete Charge NOTE...
- - - - - Checking for Non-Condensables To check for non-condensables, proceed as follows: 1. Stabilize system to equalize pressure between the suction and discharge side of the system. 2. Check temperature at the condenser and receiver. 3. Check pressure at the king valve access port or the liquid line charging port. 4.
5. Open cylinder valve. While observing indicator (light or meter), slowly close bleed-off valve and increase pressure until the switch opens or closes. Slowly open bleed-off valve (to decrease pressure) until switch reverts to normal position. 6. If switch does not activate within tolerances provided, replace switch. Test new switch before installation. Figure 5.4 Typical Setup For Testing Pressure Switches HP1, HP2 and LP 1.Cylinder valve and gauge 4.
1. Remove coil snap cap, voltage plate and coil assembly. Disconnect leads and remove coil junction box if necessary. 2. Verify coil type, voltage and frequency. This information appears on the coil voltage plate and the coil housing. 3. Place new coil over enclosing tube and then install voltage plate and snap cap. 5.10.2 Replacing Valve Internal Parts 1.
5.12 Thermostatic Expansion Valve MOP expansion valve characteristics: • In order to avoid compressor overcharge, an MOP expansion valve (with limited flow) is used. • Operating: the expansion valve will not open more than the MOP setpoint. Any temperature increase at the bulb should not open the expansion valve further.
7. Note the temperature of the suction gas at the expansion valve bulb. 8. Subtract the saturation temperature determined in Step 6 from the average temperature measured in Step 7. The difference is the superheat of the suction gas. Refer to Section 2.6.2 for superheat setting.
5.16 Evaporator Coil Cleaning The use of recycled cardboard cartons is increasing. The recycled cardboard cartons create much more fiber dust during transport than “new” cartons. The fiber dust and particles are drawn into the evaporator where they lodge between the evaporator fins. If the coil is not cleaned on a regular basis, sometimes as often as after each trip, the accumulation can be great enough to restrict air flow, cause coil icing, repetitive defrosts and loss of unit capacity.
