Compressors
Lubrication
Compressors are charged with the correct amount of oil at the factory.
!CAUTION
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in damage to components.
The compressor is in a PuronR refrigerant system and uses a polyolester (POE) oil. This oil is extremely hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs water readily. POE oils can absorb 15 times as much water as other oils designed for HCFC and CFC refrigerants. Avoid exposure of the oil to the atmosphere.
!WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.
Relieve pressure and recover all refrigerant before system repair or final unit disposal.
Wear safety glasses and gloves when handling refrigerants.
Keep torches and other ignition sources away from refrigerants and oils.
Replacing Compressor
The compressor used with Puron refrigerant contains a POE oil. This oil has a high affinity for moisture. Do not remove the compressor’s tube plugs until ready to insert the unit suction and discharge tube ends.

1.Connect service gauges to suction and discharge pres- sure fittings.
2.Energize the compressor.
3.The suction pressure should drop and the discharge pressure should rise, as is normal on any
NOTE: If the suction pressure does not drop and the discharge pressure does not rise to normal levels:
4.Note that the evaporator fan is probably also rotating in the wrong direction.
5.Turn off power to the unit.
6.Reverse any two of the unit power leads.
7.Reapply power to the compressor.
