Adjustments should be made in small increments, 

allowing the system to stabilize after each turn�
5� 

Vary the evaporator load to test at various conditions 

that the suction pressure does not fall below the set 

point (104 psig for R-410a)

6� 

Replace the seal cap on the hot gas bypass valve

Sequence Of Operation Cooling - - Air-Cooled

The following sequence is based on the unit being controlled 

by a suitable room thermostat If another control type is being 

utilized, reference the instructions for that device

a� 

Raise thermostat set point to highest level

b� 

Set System switch to “OFF” position

c� 

Set Fan switch to the “AUTO” position

d� 

Moving the Fan switch to the “ON” position should 

cause the evaporator blower motor to run Moving the 

Fan switch back to “AUTO” should stop the blower

e� 

Move the System switch to the “COOL” position 

Slowly lower the thermostat setting to call for cooling 

The evaporator blower should start (assuming the 

Fan switch is set to “AUTO”) and the System lead 

compressor should start The condenser blower on an 

air-cooled unit should start when the compressor is 

activated

f� 

On those units with multiple compressors, if the 

thermostat set point continues to be lowered, the 

second compressor should then start Please note that 

there may be a time delay between stages

g� 

Set room thermostat at desired space temperature and 

the Fan switch to “AUTO” or “ON” The unit will cycle as 

required to maintain conditions

Cooling - - Water-Cooled

A water-cooled unit sequence will be the same as above, 

except that air-cooled blower will be replaced by a pump or 

valve being activated for water flow through the condenser.

Cooling - - Chilled Water

Chilled water unit sequence is the same as the above, 

except that the compressor and condenser blower activation 

is replaced by the chilled water valve function

Heating (Other Than Heat Pump)

The following sequence is based on the unit being controlled 

by a suitable room thermostat If another control type is being 

utilized, reference the instructions for that device

a� 

Lower thermostat set point to lowest level

b� 

Set System switch to “OFF” position

c� 

Set Fan switch to the “AUTO” position

d� 

Moving the Fan switch to the “ON” position should 

cause the evaporator blower motor to run Moving the 

Fan switch back to “AUTO” should stop the blower

e� 

Move the System switch to the “HEAT” position Slowly 

raise the thermostat setting to call for heating The 

evaporator blower should start (assuming the Fan 

switch is set to “AUTO”) and the heat type (electric, hot 

water or steam) should start

f� 

On those units with multiple heat stages, if the 

thermostat set point continues to be raised, the 

additional heat stages should then start Please note 

that there may be a time delay between stages

g� 

Set room thermostat at desired space temperature and 

the Fan switch to “AUTO” or “ON” The unit will cycle as 

required to maintain conditions

Heating (Heat Pump, Water Source)

The following sequence is based on the unit being controlled 

by a suitable heat pump room thermostat If another control 

type is being utilized, reference the instructions for that 

device

a� 

Lower thermostat set point to lowest level

b� 

Set System switch to “OFF” position

c� 

Set Fan switch to the “AUTO” position

d� 

Moving the Fan switch to the “ON” position should 

cause the evaporator blower motor to run Moving the 

Fan switch back to “AUTO” should stop the blower

e� 

Move the System switch to the “HEAT” position 

Slowly raise the thermostat setting to call for heating 

The evaporator blower should start (assuming the 

Fan switch is set to “AUTO”) and the System lead 

compressor should start A pump or valve should also 

be activated for water flow through the condenser.

f� 

On those units with multiple compressors, if the 

thermostat set point continues to be raised, the 

additional heat stages should then start Please note 

that there may be a time delay between stages

g� 

Set room thermostat at desired space temperature and 

the Fan switch to “AUTO” or “ON” The unit will cycle as 

required to maintain conditions
