Table 5 — Subcooling Charging Table

Compressor Lockout Switch —

The 38HDR units

are provided with a compressor lockout protective device. If
the compressor shuts down due to any safety device, a current
loop monitoring the compressor current senses no current flow.
The unit will lock out until the control power is interrupted to
reset the lockout. Determine the reason for the safety trip. To
restart, turn the thermostat to the OFF position and then set the
thermostat to an operating position.

MAINTENANCE

Lubrication

COMPRESSOR — Compressor contains factory oil charge;
replace oil when lost. Use Mobile 3MA-POE oil.

Cleaning Coils —

Coil should be washed out with water

or blown out with compressor air. Note that the blow-thru
design causes dirt and debris to build up on the inside of the
coils.

Clean coil annually or as required by location and outdoor

air conditions. Inspect coil monthly and clean as required. Fins
are not continuous through coil sections. Dirt and debris may
pass through first section, become trapped between the row of
fins and restrict condenser airflow. Use a flashlight to deter-
mine if dirt or debris has collected between coil sections. Clean
coil as follows:

1. Turn off unit power.
2. Using a garden hose or other suitable equipment, flush

coil from the outside to remove dirt. Be sure to flush all
dirt and debris from drain holes in base of unit. Fan
motors are waterproof.
