Service Literature
The XC15 is a high efficiency residential split−system con-
densing unit, which features a scroll compressor and
R−410A refrigerant. Units are available in 2, 2−1/2, 3, 3−1/2,
4 and 5 ton sizes. The series is designed for use with an
expansion valve only (approved for use with R−410A) in the
indoor unit. This manual is divided into sections which dis-
cuss the major components, refrigerant system, charging
procedure, maintenance and operation sequence.
Information contained in this manual is intended for use by
qualified service technicians only. All specifications are
subject to change.
CAUTION
Physical contact with metal edges and corners while
applying excessive force or rapid motion can result
in personal injury. Be aware of, and use caution when
working nearby these areas during installation or
while servicing this equipment.
IMPORTANT
Operating pressures of this R−410A unit are higher
than pressures in R−22 units. Always use service
equipment rated for R−410A.
WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service
or maintenance can cause property damage, person-
al injury or loss of life. Installation and service must
be performed by a qualified installer or service
agency.
WARNING
Electric shock hazard. Can cause injury
or death. Before attempting to perform
any service or maintenance, turn the
electrical power to unit OFF at discon-
nect switch(es). Unit may have multiple
power supplies.

XC15 SERIES UNITS
To prevent personal injury, or damage to panels, unit
or structure, be sure to observe the following:
While installing or servicing this unit, carefully stow
all removed panels out of the way, so that the panels
will not cause injury to personnel, nor cause damage
to objects or structures nearby, nor will the panels be
subjected to damage (e.g., being bent or scratched).
While handling or stowing the panels, consider any
weather conditions, especially windy conditions,
that may cause panels to be blown around and bat-
tered.
