Unit Operation
Before starting the unit, ensure the following:
All the electrical connections are correct and as per the recommended wiring diagrams
All low side tubings are properly insulated
Leak check is done and unit is pre-charged with refrigerant through high side
Check for superheat setting on the expansion valve (TXV) appropriate or not
Adding refrigerant on a cold weather results to an overcharged unit, which may then trip out on high
pressure limit during warm weather.
Suction Superheat should be 10–15 K for reliable operation.
Remember that the refrigerant is under pressure. Always wear protective equipment, i.e. safety
glasses or goggles and gloves when working with refrigerant, and guard against refrigerant spray-ing into
the face or skin. Line pressures on an operating conditioning unit will vary with outdoor temperatures. As
outdoor temperatures rise, pressures will also rise.
Caution
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, HEAT THE REFRIGERANT CYLINDER WITH A TORCH OR BY ANY
OTHER MEANS OTHER THAN WARM WATER. EXCESSIVE PRESSURES GENERATED IN THIS MANNER MAY
WEAKEN THE REFRIGERANT CONTAINER AND RESULT TO A CYLINDER EXPLOSION!
Application tips for scroll compressors
Do not use compressor to pull vacuum
Never use the compressor to suck oil into the system
Do not test compressor by closing suction valve
Do not set low pressure switch below 0 bar
Do not bypass LP controls
Do not pump down below 0 bar
Reverse Rotation
- Incorrect rotation can be identified by:
Low current, noise, balanced suction, and discharge pressure;
- Correct by interchanging any two phases
- Short-term reverse rotation will not damage the compressor
Approved compressor oil
POE-32: Polyolester Oil (Copeland Ultra 32-3MAF, Lubrizol Emkarate RL32-3MAF, Everest
