Servicing Units Delivered Void of Charge

If the outdoor unit is void of refrigerant, clean the system using the procedure described below.

1.Leak check system using procedure outlined on page 17.

2.Evacuate the system using procedure outlined on page 18.

3.Use nitrogen to break the vacuum and install a new filter drier in the system.

4.Evacuate the system again using procedure outlined on page 18.

5.Weigh in refrigerant using procedure outlined in figure 18.

6.Monitor the system to determine the amount of moisture remaining in the oil. It may be necessary to replace the filter drier several times to achieve the required dryness level. If system dryness is not verified, the compressor will fail in the future.

Unit Start−Up

IMPORTANT

If unit is equipped with a crankcase heater, it should be energized 24 hours before unit start−up to prevent compressor damage as a result of slugging.

1.Rotate fan to check for binding.

2.Inspect all factory− and field−installed wiring for loose connections.

3.After evacuation is complete, open both the liquid and vapor line service valves to release the refrigerant charge contained in outdoor unit into the system.

4.Replace the stem caps and tighten to the value listed in table 1.

5.Check voltage supply at the disconnect switch. The voltage must be within the range listed on the unit’s nameplate. If not, do not start the equipment until you have consulted with the power company and the voltage condition has been corrected.

Known for its impressive energy efficiency and advanced features, this unit is designed to provide homeowners with exceptional comfort while also keeping energy bills in check.

This results in quieter operation, providing a peaceful indoor environment. The noise levels are minimal, making it suitable for nighttime use or for homes where noise might be a concern.

The air conditioner is built with durability in mind, featuring a robust cabinet that protects against the elements and potential wear and tear over time. Its louvered design provides additional protection for critical components, ensuring longevity and consistent performance.

Furthermore, the X16 is compatible with smart thermostats and home automation systems, allowing homeowners to optimize their cooling schedules remotely. This connectivity helps users make informed decisions about energy usage, further enhancing efficiency while providing ultimate control over home comfort.

In summary, the Lenox 506637-01, Elite Series X16 Air Conditioner provides an excellent blend of energy efficiency, advanced technology, and a focus on comfort and durability.
