Fan Adjustment —

Adjust fan as shown in Fig. 14.

Oil Charge —

Compressors are factory charged with oil

as follows:

COMPRESSOR

AMOUNT

pints (liters)

06E9265

20.0 (9.4)

06E9275

20.0 (9.4)

06E9299

19.0 (9.0)

When additional oil or a complete charge is required, use

only Carrier-approved compressor oil:
Petroleum Specialities Inc. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Cryol 150
Texaco, Inc. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Capella WF-32
Witco Chemical Corp. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Suniso 3 GS

IMPORTANT: Do not use drained oil or use oil that
has been exposed to atmosphere. Refer to Carrier Train-
ing Booklet, GTAC II, Module 5, for procedures to
add oil. To remove oil, isolate the compressor, reclaim
internal compressor charge, and use the compressor drain
plug.

Liquid Shutoff/Charging Valve —

Valve is located

inside the compressor compartment and is provided with

1

4

-in. flare connection for field charging.

Capacity Control —

Capacity control is by 2 suction

pressure actuated unloaders. Each controls 2 cylinders. Un-
loaders are factory set (see Table 1A or 1B) but may be field
adjusted. Number 1 unloader is on cylinder bank on same
side of compressor as terminal box.

CONTROL SET POINT — The control set point (cylinder
load point) is adjustable from 0 to 85 psig (0 to 586 kPag).
To adjust, turn control set point adjustment nut (Fig. 15) clock-
wise to its bottom stop. In this position, set point is
85 psig (586 kPag). Then, turn adjustment counterclockwise
to desired control set point. Every full turn counterclock-
wise decreases set point by 7.5 psig (52 kPag).

PRESSURE DIFFERENTIAL — The pressure differential
(difference between cylinder load and unload points) is ad-
justable from 6 to 22 psig (41 to 152 kPag). To adjust, turn
pressure differential adjustment screw (Fig. 15) counter-
clockwise to its backstop position. In this position, differ-
ential is 6 psig (41 kPag). Then, turn adjustment clockwise
to desired pressure differential. Every full turn clockwise in-
creases differential by 1.5 psig (10 kPag).

NOTE: Dimension in (

) is in millimeters.
