SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
COOLING
– Circuit R-Y makes at thermostat pulling
in compressor contactor, starting the compressor and
outdoor motor. The G (indoor motor) circuit is
automatically completed on any call for cooling
operation or can be energized by manual fan switch on
subbase of constant air circulation.
HEATING – A 24V solenoid coil on reversing valve
controls heating cycle operation. Two thermostat
options, one allowing “Auto” changeover from cycle to
cycle and the other constantly energizing solenoid coil
during heating season and thus eliminating pressure
equalization noise except during defrost, are to be used.
On “Auto” option a circuit is completed from R-W1 and
R-Y on each heating “on” cycle, energizing reversing
valve solenoid and pulling in compressor contactor
starting compressor and outdoor motor. R-G also make
starting indoor blower motor. Heat pump heating cycle
now in operation. The second option has no “Auto”
changeover position, but instead energizes the reversing
valve solenoid constantly
whenever the system switch on subbase is placed in
“Heat” position, the “B” terminal being constantly
energized from R. A thermostat demand for heat
completes R-Y circuit, pulling in compressor contactor
starting compressor and outdoor motor. R-G also make
starting indoor blower motor.
PRESSURE SERVICE PORTS
High and low pressure service ports are installed on all
units so that the system operating pressures can be
observed. Pressure tables can be found later in the
manual covering all models on both cooling and heating
cycles. It is imperative to match the correct pressure
table to the unit by model number.
PHASE MONITOR
All units with three phase compressors are equipped
with a 3 phase line monitor to prevent compressor
damage due to phase reversal.
The phase monitor in this unit is equipped with two
LEDs. If the Y signal is present at the phase monitor
and phases are correct, the green LED will light. If
phases are reversed, the red fault LED will be lit and
compressor operation is inhibited.
If a fault condition occurs, reverse two of the supply
leads to the unit. Do not reverse any of the unit factory
wires as damage may occur.
SERVICE HINTS
1. Caution owner/operator to maintain clean air filters
at all times. Also, not to needlessly close off supply
and return air registers. This reduces airflow through
the system, which shortens equipment service life as
well as increasing operating costs.
2. Switching to heating cycle at 75°F or higher outside
temperature may cause a nuisance trip of the remote
reset high pressure switch. Turn thermostat off then
on to reset the high pressure switch.
3. The heat pump wall thermostats perform multiple
functions. Be sure that all function switches are
correctly set for the desired operating mode before
trying to diagnose any reported service problems.
4. Check all power fuses or circuit breakers to be sure
they are the correct rating.
5. Periodic cleaning of the outdoor coil to permit full
and unrestricted airflow circulation is essential.
