COOLING
Condenser Coil
The condenser coil is fabricated with round tube copper hairpins
and plate fins of various materials and/or coatings (see Model
Number Format in Appendix A to identify the materials provided
in this unit). The coil may be one-row or composite-type two-row.
Composite two-row coils are two single-row coils fabricated with
a single return bend end tubesheet.
Condenser Coil Maintenance and Cleaning
Recommendation
Routine cleaning of coil surfaces is essential to maintain proper
operation of the unit. Elimination of contamination and removal of
harmful residues will greatly increase the life of the coil and ex-
tend the life of the unit. The following maintenance and cleaning
procedures are recommended as part of the routine maintenance
activities to extend the life of the coil.
REMOVE SURFACE LOADED FIBERS
Surface loaded fibers or dirt should be removed with a vacuum
cleaner. If a vacuum cleaner is not available, a soft non-metallic
bristle brush may be used. In either case, the tool should be ap-
plied in the direction of the fins. Coil surfaces can be easily dam-
aged (fin edges can be easily bent over and cause damage to the
coating of a protected coil) if the tool is applied across the fins.
NOTE: Use of a water stream, such as a garden hose, against a
surface loaded coil will drive the fibers and dirt into the coil. This
will make cleaning efforts more difficult. Surface loaded fibers
must be completely removed prior to using low velocity clean wa-
ter rinse.
PERIODIC CLEAN WATER RINSE
A periodic clean water rinse is very beneficial for coils that are ap-
plied in coastal or industrial environments. However, it is very im-
portant that the water rinse is made with a very low velocity water
stream to avoid damaging the fin edges. Monthly cleaning as de-
scribed below is recommended.
ROUTINE CLEANING OF COIL SURFACES
Periodic cleaning with Totaline
®
environmentally sound coil
cleaner is essential to extend the life of coils. This cleaner is avail-
able from Replacement Components Division as part number
P902-0301 for a one gallon container, and part number P902-0305
for a 5 gallon container. It is recommended that all coils, including
standard aluminum, pre-coated, copper/copper or E-coated coils
be cleaned with the Totaline environmentally sound coil cleaner as
described below. Coil cleaning should be part of the unit’s regular-
ly scheduled maintenance procedures to ensure long life of the
coil. Failure to clean the coils may result in reduced durability in
the environment.
Avoid use of:
• coil brighteners
• acid cleaning prior to painting
• high pressure washers
• poor quality water for cleaning
Totaline environmentally sound coil cleaner is nonflammable, hy-
poallergenic, non-bacterial, and a USDA accepted biodegradable
agent that will not harm the coil or surrounding components such
as electrical wiring, painted metal surfaces, or insulation. Use of
non-recommended coil cleaners is strongly discouraged since coil
and unit durability could be affected.
ONE-ROW COIL
Wash coil with commercial coil cleaner. It is not necessary to re-
move top panel.
TWO-ROW COILS
Clean coil as follows:
1. Turn off unit power, tag disconnect.
2. Remove top panel screws on condenser end of unit.
3. Remove condenser coil corner post. See Fig. 16. To hold
top panel open, place coil corner post between top panel
Fig. 16 — Cleaning Condenser Coil
Fig. 17 — Propping Up Top Panel
4. Remove screws securing coil to compressor plate and
compressor access panel.
5. Remove fastener holding coil sections together at return
end of condenser coil. Carefully separate the outer coil
section 3-in. to 4-in. from the inner coil section. See
Fig. 18.
WARNING
UNIT OPERATION AND SAFETY HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could cause personal injury,
death and/or equipment damage.
This system uses Puron
®
refrigerant, which has higher pres-
sures than R-22 and other refrigerants. No other refrigerant
may be used in this system. Gage set, hoses, and recovery sys-
tem must be designed to handle Puron refrigerant. If unsure
about equipment, consult the equipment manufacturer.
