Operation
Unit operations should be controlled with
thermostat or unit controller, never at the
main power supply, except for emergency or
complete shutdown of the unit.
Steam or Hot Water Preheating
Operation
Valve control for steam and hot water
heating coils are by others. Heating is
accomplished by passing steam or hot water
through the steam or hot water coil
assembly.
Chilled Water or Non-Compressorized
DX Cooling Operation
Controls for chilled water cooling coil and
non-compressorized DX coil are by others.
Packaged DX Cooling Operation and
Control
When a call for cooling (G and Y1, Y2, etc.)
is made the supply fan motors and
compressors will energize.
Maintenance
(See back of the manual for maintenance
log.)
At least once each year, a qualified service
technician should check out the unit. Supply
fans, evaporator coils and air filters should
be inspected monthly.
Periodically during operation, it is necessary
to perform routine service checks on the
performance of the unit. This includes
checking of the air flow, the air filters,
condenser water flow and refrigerant charge.
See Startup section for information on air
flow adjustment and refrigerant charge
adjustment.
DX Cooling
Set unit controls to cooling mode of
operation with supply fans on. Check the
fans
for correct operating direction,
amperage and voltage. Check compressor
operation, rotation, amperage and voltage to
the unit nameplate (check the amperage on
the load side of the compressor contactor).
Condensate Drain Pans
Drain pans will have moisture present and
require
periodic cleaning to prevent
microbial growth. Cleaning of the drain pans
will also prevent any possible plugging of
the drain lines and overflow of the pan itself.
Cleaning of the drain pans and inside of the
unit should be done only by qualified
personnel.
Improper installation, adjustment,
alteration, service or maintenance
can
cause property damage,
personal injury or loss of life. Startup
and service must be performed by a
Factory Trained Service Technician.
A copy of this IOM should be kept
with the unit.
