5.3.4.1.
GHRC Air-Cooled Heat Exchanger Phase Check
The
GHRX
air cooled heat exchangers (
with axial EC fan motors
) are only offered in three
phase voltages and the individual EC fan motors will only operate in one direction so no
additional phase verification is required.
5.3.4.2.
DARC Air-Cooled Heat Exchangers Phase Check
The DARC heat exchangers
have standard prop-type fan blades with direct-drive AC
motors
. See the DARC air-cooled heat exchanger Installation, Operations and Maintenance
Manual for proper phase check procedures.

Line Set Charge Calculations
1. Since most of the refrigerant weight is in liquid form in the liquid line, refrigerant in the hot
gas line and suction line is ignored in the charging calculation.
2. Calculate the total of the liquid line run, then multiply the equivalent feet of line based on the
line size by the correct multiplier to get the refrigerant weight needed for the line-set.

Note:
Charge Weight is calculated at 77F (25C).
Example:
If the liquid line of an R-410A system is 150 feet of 1-1/8" pipe, then multiply 150 feet x 0.38
= 57 lbs.
Example: For a GUAX-125XX (37.5 + 57 lbs.) * 0.80 = 75.6 lbs.
