While scroll compressors usually do not require
crankcase heaters, there are instances when a
heater should be added� Refrigerant migration
during the off cycle can result in a noisy start up�
Add a crankcase heater to minimize refrigerant
migration and to help eliminate any start up noise
or bearing “wash out.”
NOTE:
A crankcase heater should be installed if:
• The system charge exceeds the values listed in
the adjacent tables,
• The system is subject to low voltage variations,
or
• When a low ambient control is used for system
operation below 55°F�
All heaters are located on the lower half of the
compressor shell� Its purpose is to drive refrigerant
from the compressor shell during long off cycles,
thus preventing damage to the compressor during
start-up�
At initial start-up or after extended shutdown
periods, make sure the heater is energized for at
least 12 hours before the compressor is started�
(Disconnect switch is on and wall thermostat is off�)
Compressor Crankcase Heat (CCH)
High- and Low-Pressure Controls (HPC and LPC)
HPC and LPC are not installed on RA14**AJINA,
but can be field installed using the followiing
kit numbers: RXAB-A0z (high pressure control)
and RXAC-A0Z (low pressure control)� These
controls keep the compressor from operating in
pressure ranges which can cause damage to the
compressor� Both controls are in the low-voltage
control circuit�
The high-pressure control (HPC) is an automatic-
reset which opens near 610 PSIG and closes near
420 PSIG�
The low-pressure control (LPC) is an automatic-
reset which opens near 15 PSIG and closes near
40 PSIG�
CAUTION:
The compressor has
an internal overload protector� Under some
conditions, it can take up to 2 hours for this
overload to reset� Make sure overload has had
time to reset before condemning the compressor�
