manifold set, separates suction oil return to the
upstream variable speed compressor. It also provides a
sump pressure difference to move excess oil from the
variable speed to the fixed speed compressor when
both compressors are running. The nozzle is
specifically sized for this variable speed manifold
compressor combination and must not be removed.
Suction restrictors are not used, and a smaller 3/8" OD
oil equalizer line is used to help maintain the sump
pressure differential.

Precision Suction Restrictor
Tandem manifold compressors that have unequal capacity
sizes use a precision suction restrictor to balance the oil
levels in the compressors (see figure below). This restrictor
is placed in the smaller capacity compressor. When
replacing this compressor, it is imperative that the proper
restrictor is selected from those provided with the
replacement compressor.
When the compressors are restarted, verify that correct oil
levels are obtained with both compressors operating.

VFD Programming Parameters (Supply/
Condenser for Low Ambient Option)
Units shipped with variable frequency drives (VFD) are
preset and run tested at the factory. If a problem with a
152
VFD occurs, ensure that the programmed parameters
listed in
fan VFDs and for condenser fan VFDs (if low ambient
option is installed), have been set before replacing the
drive.
