After inspecting the electrical controls and wiring, replace all the panels. Start the unit, and observe at least one complete cooling cycle to ensure proper operation. If discrepancies are observed in operating cycle, or if a suspected malfunction has occurred, check each electrical component with the proper electrical instrumentation. Refer to the unit wiring label when making these checks.

Refrigerant Circuit
Inspect all refrigerant tubing connections and the unit base for oil accumulation annually. Detecting oil generally indicates a refrigerant leak.
If oil is detected or if low performance is suspected, leak test all refrigerant tubing using an electronic leak detector, or
If no refrigerant leaks are found and low performance is suspected, refer to Checking and Adjusting Refrigerant Charge section.
Indoor Airflow
The heating and/or cooling airflow does not require checking unless improper performance is suspected. If a problem exists, be sure that all supply- and
Pressure Switches - Refrigerant Circuit
Pressure switches are protective devices integrated into the control circuit (low voltage). They shut off compressor if abnormally high or low pressures are present in the refrigeration circuit. These pressure switches are specifically designed to operate with Puron
This switch is located on the liquid line and protects against low suction pressures caused by such events as loss of charge, low airflow across indoor coil, dirty filters, etc. It opens if the system pressure drops to about 20 psig. If system pressure is above this, switch should be closed.
The
High pressure may be caused by a dirty outdoor coil, failed fan motor, or outdoor air recirculation.
To check switches:
1.Turn off all power to unit.
2.Disconnect leads on switch.
3.Apply ohm meter leads across switch. You should have continuity on a good switch.
NOTE: Because these switches are attached to refrigeration system under pressure, it is not advisable to remove this device for troubleshooting unless you are reasonably certain that a problem exists. If switch must be removed, remove and recover all system charge so that pressure gauges read 0 psi. Never open system without breaking vacuum with dry nitrogen.
Copeland Scroll Compressor (Puron Refrigerant)
The compressor used in this product is specifically designed to operate with Puron
The compressor is an electrical, as well as mechanical, device. Exercise extreme caution when working near compressors. Power should be shut off, if possible, for most troubleshooting techniques. Refrigerants present additional safety hazards.
!WARNING
EXPLOSION, FIRE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death and/or property damage.
Wear safety glasses and gloves when handling refrigerants. Keep torches and other ignition sources away from refrigerants and oils.
The scroll compressor pumps refrigerant throughout the system by the interaction of a stationary and an orbiting scroll. The scroll compressor has no dynamic suction or discharge valves, and it is more tolerant of stresses caused by debris, liquid slugging, and flooded starts. The compressor is equipped with noise reducing shutdown device and an internal
