Installation, Operation & Maintenance - HKV Series
CAUTION!
All three phase scroll compressors must have
direction of rotation verified at start-up. Verification is
achieved by checking compressor Amp draw. Amp draw
will be substantially lower compared to nameplate values.
Additionally, reverse rotation results in an elevated sound
level compared to correct rotation. Reverse rotation will result
in compressor internal overload trip within several minutes.
Verify compressor type before proceeding.
CAUTION!
DO NOT store or install units in corrosive
environments or in locations subject to temperature or
humidity extremes (e.g., attics, garages, rooftops, etc.).
Corrosive conditions and high temperature or humidity can
significantly reduce performance, reliability, and service life.
Always move and store units in an upright position. Tilting
units on their sides may cause equipment damage.

CUT HAZARD - Failure to follow this caution may
result in personal injury. Sheet metal parts may have sharp
edges or burrs. Use care and wear appropriate protective
clothing, safety glasses and gloves when handling parts and
servicing heat pumps.
Prepare units for installation as follows:
1. Compare the electrical data on the unit nameplate
with ordering and shipping information to verify that
the correct unit has been shipped.
2. Keep the cabinet covered with the original packaging
until installation is complete and all plastering,
painting, etc. is finished.
3. Verify refrigerant tubing is free of kinks or dents and
that it does not touch other unit components.
4. Inspect all electrical connections. Connections must
be clean and tight at the terminals.
5.
Some airflow patterns and some control box
locations are field convertible. Locate the conversion
section of this IOM.
