B. Oil Charging
Allow unit to run for about 20 minutes. Stop unit and check compressor oil level. Add oil only if necessary to bring oil into view in sight glass. See Table 1 for oil charge. Use only ap- proved compressor oil as follows:
Suniso 3GS and
Do not reuse drained oil or use any oil that has been exposed to atmosphere. Procedures for adding or removing oil are given in Refrigerant Service Techniques manual.
If oil is added, run unit for additional 10 minutes. Stop unit and check oil level. If level is still low, add oil only after de- termining that piping system is designed for proper oil re- turn and that system is not leaking oil.
IV. REFRIGERANT SERVICE PORTS
Each unit system has 3 service ports; one on the suction line, one on the liquid line, and one on the compressor discharge line. Be sure caps on the ports are tight.
V. SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
When power is supplied to unit, the transformer (TRAN) is energized. The crankcase heater is also energized.
A. Cooling
With the thermostat in the cooling position, and when the space temperature comes within 2° F of the cooling set point, the thermostat makes circuit
As the space temperature continues to rise, the second stage of the thermostat makes, closing circuit
When the thermostat is satis®ed, contacts open, deenergiz- ing C. The COMP, IFM, and OFM stop.
As shown in Fig. 12, cooling mode refrigerant ¯ow is as follows:
1.Hot refrigerant gas from compressor ¯ows through the reversing valve and is directed to the outdoor coil vapor header.
2.Once at the outdoor coil vapor header, hot refrigerant gas ¯ows up to check valve ``A,'' which is closed. All re- frigerant is then directed to complete a path through the lower 6 coil circuits (6 passes in each circuit).
3.Refrigerant ¯ows through from the liquid header side outlets into the transfer header, where it ¯ows upward.
4.Refrigerant leaves the transfer header through side con- nections in 4 locations and enters the middle coil cir- cuits (4 coil circuits above check valve ``A'').
5.Refrigerant leaves the 4 middle coil circuits and enters the top portion of vapor header. The refrigerant moves up to the top 2 remaining coil circuits, where it enters the subcooler section.
6.Subcooled refrigerant leaves the coil circuits through the side outlets. It passes through check valve ``B'' into the system liquid line and then into the indoor coil.
7.Liquid refrigerant is expanded and evaporated to a low- pressure vapor in the indoor coil. Refrigerant vapor then returns to the outdoor unit through the system vapor line, where it is drawn through the reversing valve and accumulator and back to the compressor suction connection.
B.Heating
On a call for heat, thermostat makes circuits
If room temperature continues to fall, circuit
As shown in Fig. 13, heating mode refrigerant ¯ow is as follows:
1.Hot gas from compressor ¯ows through the reversing valve and is directed to the system vapor line and indoor coil vapor header (not shown). Refrigerant is condensed and subcooled in the indoor coil and returns to the outdoor unit through the system liquid line.
2.Check valve ``B'' is closed and all liquid refrigerant en- ters the liquid header.
3.Refrigerant leaves the liquid header through 12 loca- tions. It is then expanded in ®xed ori®ce metering de- vices contained within the outlet tubes.
4.Refrigerant evaporates to low pressure vapor as it com- pletes its passage through the 12 parallel coil circuits (6 passes each).
5.Refrigerant moves from the coil circuits into the vapor header, where it is drawn through the reversing valve and accumulator and back to compressor suction connection.
