Pre-Startup Checklist Pre-Startup Checklist Before energizing the unit, the following system devices must be checked: Is the high voltage power supply correct and in accordance with the nameplate ratings? Is phasing of the unit correct per compressor rotation (scroll compressor only)? Is the field wiring and circuit protection the correct size? Is the low voltage control circuit wiring correct per the unit wiring diagram? Is the piping system clean/complete and correct? (A recommendation of all system flushing of debris from...
Sequence of Operation Initial Unit Start-up Note: Start-up for the Tracer ZN510 Controller may be found in WSHP-IOP-2. Start-up with the conventional thermostat is included below: 1.Set the thermostat to the highest position. 2.Set the thermostat system switch to COOL with the fan control to AUTO. The compres- sor should NOT run.

Sequence of Operation Operating Pressures GENERAL: There are many variables (airflow, air temperatures) in an air conditioning system that will affect operating refrigerant pressures and temperatures. The charts below shows approximate conditions and is based on air flow at the rated SCFM, entering air at 80.6 °F(DB), 66.2 °F(WB) in cooling, 68 °F(DB) in heating. (+)Heating data with 35 °F EWT is based on the use of an anti-freeze solution having a freezing point 20 °F lower than the minimum expected entering temperature.
