REFRIGERANT SYSTEM 1. The component parts of the refrigerant system include the following: • Compressor • Evaporator • Condenser • Accumulator • Capillary tube These parts are all connected by copper tubing. All the connections have been brazed. EVAPORATOR CONDENSER CAPILLARY TUBE ACCUMULATOR...
REFRIGERANT SYSTEM 2. Compressor The compressor used for the unit is hermetically sealed. The compressor and the compressor motor are in one casing. A. Compressor Construction The construction of a rotary type compressor is divided into two mechanisms. The drive mechanism (compressor motor) and the compression mechanism (compressor).

REFRIGERANT SYSTEM 4. Capillary Tube The capillary tube is a long thin tube utilizing line HIGH TEMP. / HIGH PRESSURE flow resistance to serve as an expansion valve. LIQUID REFRIGERANT The length and the inner diameter of the capillary tube are determined by the capacity of the refrigeration system, specified operating condi- tions, and the amount of refrigerant.

Off” button. The unit will return to the previous Temperature Set Point. 8. Condensate Pump Kit (optional) The Office Pro 18 model comes standard with a drain tank, which collects the water that forms on the evaporator during normal cooling operation. If the unit is required to operate continuously without periodic emptying of this tank, a condensate pump may be needed.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM 10. Compressor Protection There is a Time Delay program within the microprocessor. This prevents a heavy load from being applied on the Compressor Motor when restarting the unit (Cool Mode) after a very short period of time. This “delay”...

TROUBLESHOOTING AND REPAIR In case of trouble, perform the following inspection before disassembly. 6. Inspection of Plate Fins To inspect the plate fins of either the evaporator or condenser you must remove the air filters. After removal of the air filters, inspect the plate fins for any dirt, dust, lint, or debris that may have caused poor cooling performance of the unit.
Page 28
TROUBLESHOOTING AND REPAIR 8. Inspection of Cooling Capacity Measure the difference in temperature between the inlet of the evaporator and the cool air vent. If the difference is out of the range given in the graphs on THERMOMETER page 8, proceed with the remedy suggested in the troubleshooting chart on page 19.

TROUBLESHOOTING AND REPAIR 17. Inspection of Wiring Connection Refer to the Wiring Diagrams on page 39 and check for connection of each wire. 18. Inspection of Thermistor Using an Ohmeter, check the resistance value across the 2-pin connector. At normal temperature (77˚F (25˚C)) either thermistor (room or freeze) should measure approximately 10,000 or 10K ohms.

TROUBLESHOOTING AND REPAIR Removal of Refrigeration Cycle Components CAUTION 1. Before any refrigeration cycle component can be replaced, it is necessary to recover the refrigerant using standard recovery procedures and equipment. 2. To prevent oxidation, dry nitrogen should be conducted (flow rate 1l/min) through the pinch-off tube during any brazing operation.
