1. Connect the vacuum pump with 250 micron capability
to the service valves.
2. Evacuate the system to 250 microns or less using
suction and liquid service valves. Using both valves is
necessary as some compressors create a mechanical
seal separating the sides of the system.
3. Close pump valve and hold vacuum for 10 minutes.
Typically pressure will rise during this period.
If the pressure rises to 1000 microns or less and
remains steady the system is considered leak-free;
proceed to startup.
If pressure rises above 1000 microns but holds steady
below 2000 microns, moisture and/or noncondensibles
may be present or the system may have a small leak.
Return to step 2: If the same result is encountered
check for leaks as previously indicated and repair as
necessary then repeat evacuation.
If pressure rises above 2000 microns, a leak is present.
Check for leaks as previously indicated and repair as
necessary then repeat evacuation.

CONDUCTORS
The condensing unit rating plate lists pertinent electrical data
necessary for proper electrical service and overcurrent pro-
tection. Wires should be sized to limit voltage drop to 2%
(max.) from the main breaker or fuse panel to the condens-
ing unit. Consult the NEC, CEC, and all local codes to deter-
mine the correct wire gauge and length.
Local codes often require a disconnect switch located near
the unit; do not install the switch on the unit. Refer to the
installation instructions supplied with the indoor furnace/air
handler for specific wiring connections and indoor unit con-
figuration. Likewise, consult the instructions packaged with
the thermostat for mounting and location information.
O
VERCURRENT
The following overcurrent protection devices are approved
for use.
Time delay fuses
HACR type circuit breakers
These devices have sufficient time delay to permit the motor-
compressor to start and accelerate its load.

OLTAGE
Route power supply and ground wires through the high volt-
age port and terminate in accordance with the wiring dia-
gram provided inside the control panel cover.

OLTAGE
Condensing unit control wiring requires a nominal 24 VAC (+/-
6 VAC), 60 Hz, minimum 25 VA service from either the indoor
or outdoor transformer packaged with the optional communi-
10
cating thermostat kit. Low voltage wiring for the condensing
units depends on the thermostat used. The unit is designed to
work as part of a fully communicating HVAC system utilizing
the ComfortNet™, CTK0*AA thermostat, ComfortNet™ com-
patible indoor unit, and up to four wires.
