OPERATION

 

 
These units c/w multiple compressors and 
independent refrigeration circuits. (4 
compressors and 4 circuits for a KAC-
720.)  
If the demand requires more than one 
compressor to operate, a time delay relay 
prevents them from starting at the same 
time. 
These units must be connected to a 
multiple stage thermostat for partial 
loading conditions. 
However, the water flow across the water-cooled condenser & the airflow across the unit will not 
modulate. 

 

 

PULLEY ADJUSTMENT 

 
If for any reason, adjustment on the pulley 
is required, raising or lowering the tilt base 
can be done. To tighten the belts, you must 
lower the nuts under the tilt base and then 
lower the top nuts until the proper tension 
is reached. Raise lower nuts to re-tighten 
tilt base.  
 
To relieve tension in the belts, start by 
raising the top nuts until desired tension is 
reached and then raise bottom nuts of the 
tilt base to re-tighten tilt. 
 

REFRIGERANT REVERSING VALVE 
(KHP unit only) 

Each refrigeration circuit consists of a 
refrigerant reversing valve.  The reversing 
valves are installed on the high-pressure 
line (discharge) of each circuit. The 
reversing valve is controlled by a solenoid 
that moves a piston from a de-energized

 

position (heat pump mode) to an energized 
position (cooling mode). The heat pump 
thermostat controls the reversing valve. 
These valves are not adjustable
