UNIT MOUNTING The unit cooler may be suspended with 3/8” diameter hanger rods or flush mounted to the ceiling using 5/16” minimum lag screws with flat washers. Rods should be double nutted top and bottom. The unit must be level in all directions to insure proper drainage of condensate. Suspended units must have enough clearance above for cleaning the top.
4 DRAIN LINE The drain line should be as short and as steeply pitched as possible with a minimum of ¼” drop per running foot. Any traps in the drain line must be in an ambient above freezing location. If the temperature sur- rounding the trap or drain line is below freezing (32°F) it must be wrapped with a drain line heater.

To prevent overshooting the desired setting, only one turn of the stem should be made at a time. As much as 30 minutes may be required for the new balance to take place after an adjustment is made. Always tighten the adjusting stem packing nut and replace the seal cap tightly after the adjustment is complete.

3. The evaporator coil cools down approaching operating temperature. 4. When the coil temperature reaches 25°F (approximately two to three minutes after defrost termination), the fan delay thermostat closes thus allowing the fan motors to restart. The unit is now back in operation. NOTE: On systems where the room temperature is above +25°F, the fan delay thermostat may not close for an extended period.

The defrost cycle is field controller initiated and terminated. Step A Power is supplied to the unit cooler continuously. Step B In Case of H, defrost hot gas is supplied to the unit via liquid line and in Case of P, defrost Kool Gas is supplied to the suction line.
9.3 DUAL SPEED MOTOR SEQUENCE OF OPERATION – KR coils uses Dual Speed EC motors for fans used in DOE applications with the default being the high speed and the second speed set as the minimum speed. Fans will be in Min speed/Full speed or Off in scenarios below: Minimum speed When the room temperature or the refrigeration setpoint is met, the fan will operate at half...
9.6 INTERLOCKING SINGLE COMPRESSOR UNIT WITH KRACK COIL When a single compressor unit is utilized with a Krack evaporator, the evaporator fan should run at full speed whenever the compressor is running (i.e., when using evaporator with dual speed motor fans), and variable speed motor fans the fan speed should not modulate when the compressor is running.
Single compressor units use a contactor for compressor operation, a NC Aux contact attached to the main contactor and will be used to interlock. FIGURE 14 – SETUP IN SINGLE COMPRESSOR UNIT - (COMPRESSOR INTERLOCK) Aux contact in Single compressor unit wired to terminal pins. FIGURE 15: DUAL SPEED MOTOR EVAPORATER COILS –...
In the case of variable speed motor coils, the jumper between the terminal A0+ and A should be removed and then the aux contact from the single compressor unit be wired in series. Whenever the compressor contactor is energized, the aux contact energizes, and NC contacts changes state to NO, there by opening the analog 10V signal circuit.
