DANGER! Risk of fire or explosion. To be repaired only by trained service personnel. Do not puncture refrigerant tubing Within the compressor, PAG (Polyalkylene Glycol) oil is used to lubricate the compressor. Contact Aspen for the MSDS on PAG oil. -
Page 4: General Operation
To operate properly, airflow must be provided to the condenser prior to turning on the compressor. A fan should be mounted on a plenum at least 2 cm away from the face of the condenser. Aspen recommends a 120 mm fan with at least 100 cfm of airflow. Smaller fans may require a larger plenum length to ensure proper airflow distribution. -
Page 5: Mounting
The motor drive board shipped with the LCM is a 24 VDC unit. The operating voltage range is 22 VDC – 30 VDC. The LCM may draw up to 15 A of current during normal operation. Aspen recommends at least 12 AWG wire for the power supply to the compressor drive board with an in-line 15 A fuse (see Appendix page 3). -
