SECTION VI: EVACUATION
It will be necessary to evacuate the system to 500 microns or less. If a
leak is suspected, leak test with dry nitrogen to locate the leak. Repair
the leak and test again.
To verify that the system has no leaks, simply close the valve to the vac-
uum pump suction to isolate the pump and hold the system under vac-
uum. Watch the micron gauge for a few minutes. If the micron gauge
indicates a steady and continuous rise, it's an indication of a leak. If the
gauge shows a rise, then levels off after a few minutes and remains
fairly constant, its an indication that the system is leak free but still con-
tains moisture and may require further evacuation if the reading is
above 500 microns.
SECTION VII: SYSTEM CHARGE
The factory charge in the outdoor unit includes enough charge for the
unit, a 15 ft. (4.6 m) line set, and the smallest indoor coil match-up.
Some indoor coil matches may require additional charge. See tabular
data sheet provided in unit literature packet for charge requirements.
Do not leave the system open to the atmosphere.
The "TOTAL SYSTEM CHARGE" must be permanently stamped on the
unit data plate.
Total system charge is determined as follows:
1.
Determine outdoor unit charge from tabular data sheet.
2.
Determine indoor coil adjustment from tabular data sheet.
3.
Calculate the line charge using the tabular data sheet if line length
is greater than 15 feet (4.6 m).
4.
Total system charge = item 1 + item 2 + item 3.
5.
Permanently stamp the unit data plate with the total amount of
refrigerant in the system.
Use the following charging method whenever additional refrigerant is
required for the system charge.
If a calibrated charging cylinder or accurate weighing device is avail-
able, add refrigerant accordingly. Otherwise, model-specific charging
charts are provided on the access panel of the unit.
DO NOT attempt to pump "Total System Charge" into outdoor unit
for maintenance, service, etc. This may cause damage to the com-
pressor and/or other components. the outdoor unit only has enough
volume for the factory charge, not the "Total System Charge".
6
Refrigerant charging should only be carried out by a qualified air
conditioning contractor.
Compressor damage will occur if system is improperly charged. On
new system installations, charge system per tabular data sheet for
the matched coil and follow guidelines in this instruction.
IT IS UNLAWFUL TO KNOWINGLY VENT, RELEASE OR DIS-
CHARGE REFRIGERANT INTO THE OPEN AIR DURING
REPAIR, SERVICE, MAINTENANCE OR THE FINAL DISPOSAL
OF THIS UNIT.
SECTION VIII: ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS
GENERAL INFORMATION & GROUNDING
Check the electrical supply to be sure that it meets the values specified
on the unit nameplate and wiring label.
Power wiring, control (low voltage) wiring, disconnect switches and over
current protection must be supplied by the installer. Wire size should be
sized per NEC requirements.
All field wiring must USE COPPER CONDUCTORS ONLY and be
in accordance with Local, National, Fire, Safety & Electrical Codes.
This unit must be grounded with a separate ground wire in accor-
dance with the above codes.
The complete connection diagram and schematic wiring label is located
on the inside surface of the unit service access panel.
FIELD CONNECTIONS POWER WIRING
1.
Install the proper size weatherproof disconnect switch outdoors
and within sight of the unit.
2.
Remove the screws from the control box cover and remove from
unit.
3.
Run power wiring from the disconnect switch to the unit.
4.
Route wires from disconnect through power wiring opening pro-
vided and into the unit control box as shown in Figures 6 or 7.
5.
Install the proper size time-delay fuses or circuit breaker, and
make the power supply connections.
