Refrigerant Circuit

Annually inspect all refrigerant tubing connections.
WARNING
!
EXPLOSION, SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL
HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury, death or property damage.
System under pressure. Relieve pressure and recover all
refrigerant before system repair or final unit disposal. Use
all service ports and open all flow- -control devices,
including solenoid valves.
If low cooling performance is suspected, leak- -test all refrigerant
tubing using an electronic leak- -detector or liquid- -soap solution. If
a refrigerant leak is detected, refer to the Check for Refrigerant
Leaks section.
If no refrigerant leaks are found and low cooling performance is
suspected, refer to the Checking and Adjusting Refrigerant Charge
section.

Gas Input

The gas input does not require checking unless improper heating
performance is suspected. If a problem exists, refer to the Start- -Up
section.

Evaporator Airflow

The heating and/or cooling airflow does not require checking
unless improper performance is suspected. If a problem exists, be
sure that all supply- - and return- -air grilles are open and free from
obstructions, and that the air filter is clean. When necessary, refer to
the Indoor Airflow and Airflow Adjustments section to check the
system airflow.

Puron Items

The indoor metering device is either a TXV or orifice type device
depending on size.

Pressure Switches
Pressure switches are protective devices wired into control circuit
(low voltage). They shut off compressor if abnormally high or low
pressures are present in the refrigeration circuit. These pressure
switches are specifically designed to operate with Puron (R- -410A)
systems. R- -22 pressure switches must not be used as replacements
for the Puron (R- -410A) system.
Low Pressure Switch (24 size only)
This switch is located on the suction line and protects against low
suction pressures caused by such events as loss of charge, low
airflow across indoor coil, dirty filters, etc. It opens at 50 psig. If
system pressure is above this, switch should be closed. To check
switch:
NOTE:
system under pressure, it is not advisable to remove this device for
troubleshooting unless you are reasonably certain that a problem
exists. If switch must be removed, remove and recover all system
charge so that pressure gauges read 0 psig. Never open system
without breaking vacuum with dry nitrogen.
High- - Pressure Switch
The high- -pressure switch is located in the discharge line and
protects against excessive condenser coil pressure. It opens at 650
psig.
High pressure may be caused by a dirty outdoor coil, failed fan
motor, or outdoor air recirculation. To check switch:
Compressor (Puron Refrigerant)
The compressor used in this product is specifically designed to
operate with Puron (R- -410A) refrigerant and cannot be
interchanged.

1. Turn off all power to unit.
2. Disconnect leads on switch.
3. Apply ohm meter leads across switch. You should have
continuity on a closed switch.
Because these switches are attached to refrigeration
1. Turn off all power to unit.
2. Disconnect leads on switch.
3. Apply ohm meter leads across switch. You should have
