b.Inspect for oil at all refrigerant tubing connec- tions and on unit base. Detecting oil generally indicates a refrigerant leak. Leak-test all refri- gerant tubing connections using electronic leak detector, halide torch, or liquid-soap solution.

c.Inspect all field-wiring and factory-wiring con- nections. Be sure that connections are completed and tight. Be sure that wires are not in contact with refrigerant tubing or sharp edges.

d.Inspect coil fins. If damaged during shipping and handling, carefully straighten fins with a fin comb.

4.Verify the following conditions:

a.Make sure that condenser-fan blade are correctly positioned in fan orifice. See Condenser-Fan Adjustment section for more details.

b.Make sure that air filter(s) is in place.

c.Make sure that condensate drain trap is filled with water to ensure proper drainage.

d.Make sure that all tools and miscellaneous loose parts have been removed.

START-UP, GENERAL

Unit Preparation

Make sure that unit has been installed in accordance with installation instructions and applicable codes.

Gas Piping

Check gas piping for leaks.

!WARNING

UNIT OPERATION AND SAFETY HAZARD

Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.

Disconnect gas piping from unit when leak testing at pressure greater than 1/2 psig. Pressures greater than 1/2 psig will cause gas valve damage resulting in hazardous condition. If gas valve is subjected to pressure greater than 1/2 psig, it must be replaced before use. When pressure testing field-supplied gas piping at pressures of 1/2 psig or less, a unit connected to such piping must be isolated by manually closing the gas valve.

Return-Air Filters

Make sure correct filters are installed in unit (see Appendix II - Physical Data). Do not operate unit without return-air filters.

Outdoor-Air Inlet Screens

Outdoor-air inlet screen must be in place before operating unit.

Compressor Mounting

Compressors are internally spring mounted. Do not loosen or remove compressor hold down bolts.

Internal Wiring

Check all electrical connections in unit control boxes. Tighten as required.

Refrigerant Service Ports

Each unit system has two 1/4” SAE flare (with check valves) service ports: one on the suction line, and one on the compressor discharge line. Be sure that caps on the ports are tight.

Compressor Rotation

On 3-phase units with scroll compressors, it is important to be certain compressor is rotating in the proper direction. To determine whether or not compressor is rotating in the proper direction:

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 start-up.

If the suction pressure does not drop and the discharge pressure does not rise to normal levels:

1.Note that the evaporator fan is probably also rotating in the wrong direction.

2.Turn off power to the unit and install lockout tag.

3.Reverse any two of the unit power leads.

4.Re-energize to the compressor. Check pressures.

The suction and discharge pressure levels should now move to their normal start-up levels.

NOTE: When the compressor is rotating in the wrong direction, the unit will make an elevated level of noise and will not provide cooling.

Cooling

Set space thermostat to OFF position. To start unit, turn on main power supply. Set system selector switch at COOL position and fan switch at AUTO. position. Adjust thermostat to a setting below room temperature. Compressor starts on closure of contactor.

Check unit charge. Refer to Refrigerant Charge section.

Reset thermostat at a position above room temperature. Compressor will shut off. Evaporator fan will shut off after a 30-second delay.

To shut off unit, set system selector switch at OFF position. Resetting thermostat at a position above room temperature shuts unit off temporarily until space temperature exceeds thermostat setting.

Main Burners

Main burners are factory set and should require no adjustment.

To check ignition of main burners and heating controls, move thermostat setpoint above room temperature and verify that the burners light and evaporator fan is energized. Check heating effect, then lower the thermostat
