manual. Only qualified personnel should service this unit.
Maintenance consists mainly of removing dirt and debris from
the outer surface of the fins and repairing any damage to them.
For units installed in corrosive environments, cleaning of the fins
should be part of the regular maintenance program.
In this type of installation, dust and debris should be removed
promptly to avoid build-up that will interfere with the regular
operation of the unit.
CONDENSER
FILTER DRIER

components are swept by the refrigerant into the liquid line and
trapped by the filter drier.
It is recommended that the filter drier be replaced each time a
refrigerant line repair is performed.

EXPANSION VALVE
The function of the expansion valve is to maintain adequate
supply of refrigerant to the evaporator. This is in order to satisfy
the charge conditions.
Before adjusting the superheat, verify that the unit charge is
correct and that the liquid line is completely full and free of bubbles,
and that the circuit is operating under stable load conditions The
superheat suction for the evaporator suction discharge is factory
set for 10°F.
!
WARNING

Risk of explosive discharge of refrigerant at high pressure.
This can cause personal injury or equipment damage.
Never loosen refrigerant or electrical line connections until
the compressor has been depressurized on both sides.
