phased for compressor operation. If the phasing is correct, circuit
R-Y energizes contactor, starting outdoor fan motor and compres-
sor circuit. R-G energizes indoor unit blower relay, starting indoor
blower motor on high speed.
NOTE:
If the phasing is incorrect, the contactor will not be
energized. To correct the phasing, interchange any two of the three
power connections on the field side.
When thermostat is satisfied, its contacts open, de-energizing
contactor and blower relay. Compressor and motors stop.
If indoor unit is equipped with a time-delay relay circuit, the
indoor blower runs an additional 90 sec to increase system
efficiency.

CHECK CHARGE
A.
Unit Charge
Factory charge and charging method are shown on unit informa-
tion plate. Charge Puron® units using a commercial-type metering
device in manifold hose. Charge refrigerant into suction line.
NOTE:
If superheat or subcooling charging conditions are not
favorable, charge must be weighed in accordance with unit rating
plate ± 0.6 oz/ft of 3/8-in. liquid line above or below 15 ft
respectively.
EXAMPLE:
25 ft - 15 ft = 10 ft X 0.6 oz/ft = 6 oz of additional charge
B.
Cooling Only Procedure
Units With Cooling Mode Puron® TXV
Units installed with cooling mode TXV require charging by the
subcooling method.
1. Operate unit a minimum of 10 minutes before checking
charge.
2. Measure liquid service valve pressure by attaching an
accurate gage to service port.
3. Measure liquid line temperature by attaching an accurate
thermistor type or electronic thermometer to liquid near
outdoor coil.
4. Refer to unit rating plate for required subcooling tempera-
ture.
5. Refer to Table 4. Find the point where required subcooling
temperature intersects measured liquid service valve pres-
sure.
6. To obtain required subcooling temperature at a specific
liquid line pressure, add refrigerant if liquid line tempera-
ture is higher than indicated or reclaim refrigerant if
temperature is lower. Allow a tolerance of ± 3°F.
Units With Indoor Pistons
Units installed with indoor pistons require charging by the super-
heat method.
The following procedure is valid when indoor airflow is within ±
21 percent of its rated CFM.
1. Operate unit a minimum of 10 minutes before checking
charge.
2. Measure suction pressure by attaching an accurate gage to
suction valve service port.
3. Measure suction temperature by attaching an accurate
thermistor type or electronic thermometer to suction line at
service valve.
4. Measure outdoor air dry-bulb temperature with thermom-
eter.
