    Follow safe work practices and utilize the appropriate protective equipment at all times. Your Carrier Transicold refrigeration unit has been designed with the safety of the operator in mind. During normal operation, all moving parts are fully enclosed to help prevent injury. During all pre-trip inspections, daily inspec- tions, and problem troubleshooting, you may be exposed to moving parts.

    Standby Electric Power Figure 1.1 Lockout/Tagout Be aware of HIGH VOLTAGE supplied at the power plug. Even with the unit off, power is present from the plug to the inside of the control box. Disconnect the high voltage source when performing service or main- tenance procedures and lockout/tagout the receptacle in accordance with your company procedures.
  • Page 13 WARNING Under no circumstances should ether or any other starting aids be used to start engine. WARNING Do not connect power plug to any electrical outlet without checking that it meets the 460/3/60 and 30 Amp electrical requirements of the unit. Ensure the power plug is clean and dry before connecting to any electrical outlet / receptacle.
  • Page 14 WARNING Inspect battery cables for signs of wear, abrasion or damage at every pre-trip inspection and replace if necessary. Also check battery cable routing to ensure that clamps are secure and that cables are not pinched or chafing against any components. WARNING Use the required protective eye wear and clothing when working with solvents.
  • Page 15 Under no circumstances should anyone attempt to repair the Logic or Display boards. Should a problem develop with these components, contact your nearest Carrier Transicold dealer for replacement. Electronic modules MUST be handled with care to prevent accidental damage or degradation from electrostatic discharge (ESD), contamination or abuse.
  • Page 16 Unit uses either R-404A or R-452A refrigerant and POE oil. The use of inert gas brazing proce- dures is mandatory for all Carrier Transicold refrigeration units; otherwise compressor failure will occur. For more information Refer to Technical Procedure 98-50553-00 Inert Gas Brazing.
  • Page 17 Under no circumstances should anyone attempt to repair sealed module internal components. Should a problem develop with these components, contact your nearest Carrier Transicold dealer for replacement. Do not direct water or steam into the generator openings. Do not allow any soap and water solutions to enter the generator.

    2.14 Refrigeration Circuit, Cooling When cooling, the unit operates as a vapor compression refrigeration system. The main components of the system are: • scroll compressor • air-cooled condenser • evaporator expansion valves • direct expansion evaporators • economizer circuit The refrigeration system will operate in one of three modes; Standard, Economized or Null. In addition, the system may also operate in Liquid Injection mode.

  • Page 98 Start-Stop Operation Start-Stop is provided to reduce fuel or power consumption. This feature allows full automatic control of the unit by monitoring compartment temperature, battery condition and (when in Engine Operation) engine coolant tempera- ture. The main function of Start-Stop Operation is to shutdown the engine or compressor after certain conditions are met (to provide an efficient temperature control system) and to initiate a restart sequence after certain conditions are met.
  • Page 99 2. Engine coolant temperature has warmed Each time the unit is started in Engine Operation it must continue to run until the coolant temperature rises to 95°F (35°C) to ensure it has fully warmed up before shutdown is allowed. If only one compartment is operating and it is not in Pulldown or Pull-Up, that compartment will remain in operation with the compressor and heaters off and the evaporator fan(s) running.
  • Page 100 4.5.3 Re-Start Parameters While the unit is in a Start-Stop OFF Cycle, restart will be initiated when one of the following conditions occurs: NOTE In Start-Stop Operation, when the setpoint is in the frozen range (refer to Section 4.7.1), the unit will not restart when temperature is below setpoint except as indicated in the following.
  • Page 101: Null Mode

    Continuous Operation In Continuous Operation, the unit will not shutdown except in response to a shutdown alarm. Temperature control in the compartments will operate under Pulldown, Pull-Up, Cooling, Heating and Null. Continuous Operation is normally used for fresh produce and other sensitive product loads. The Start-Stop/ Con- tinuous key is pressed to switch between Continuous Operation and Start-Stop Operation.
  • Page 102 When Null Mode is required and the system is operating in: • Engine/Start-Stop Operation, the unit (engine, compressor, condenser fans and evaporator fans) will shut down if the remaining Stop Parameters have been satisfied. • Engine/Continuous Operation, the compressor will shut down while the engine and evaporator fans continue to operate.

  • Page 366 8.10.13 Battery Charger (BTYC) NOTE A battery of known good condition must be connected to the charger before doing the following test. The charger operates only when the input voltage is between 275 VAC and 640VAC. If either limit is exceeded it will not function.
  • Page 367 8.10.14.2 Generator Replacement Service procedures for replacement of the generator (see Figure 8.55) involve removal of components as required to swing the unidrive assembly out, from the generator end, sufficient to allow removal of the generator from the back of the engine. The procedures that follow cover the general steps required. Minor modifications of the procedures may be required depending on the routing of wires within the unit being serviced.
  • Page 368 8.10.14.3 Generator Removal 1. Ensure the unit will not start automatically by placing the START/RUN-OFF switch in the OFF position and removing the negative battery cable. Disconnect the high voltage source and lockout/tagout the receptacle. 2. Remove the front roadside and curbside doors. 3.
  • Page 369 16. To prepare for removal of the rotor bolts, install Figure 8.54 Flywheel Locking Tool the flywheel locking tool (Carrier P/N 07-60083- 00, see Figure 8.51, Figure 8.54). 17. Swing the unidrive assembly out sufficient to remove the generator. 18. Remove the tape from the generator splice con- nections.
  • Page 370 WARNING Never disassemble the generator rotor from the stator due to the high force required to do so and the high magnetic field that will result. The field present when the rotor is disassembled from the stator may interfere with cardiac implants such as pacemakers and defibrillators. 24.
