Condenser-Fan Adjustment (Fig. 35)

1.Shut off unit power supply.

2.Remove condenser-fan assembly (grille, motor, motor cover, and fan) and loosen fan hub setscrews.

3.Adjust fan height as shown in Fig. 35.

4.Tighten setscrews and replace condenser-fan assembly.

5.Turn on power to unit.

Verify Sensor Performance — Using an ohmmeter and a thermometer, compare measured temperature to the resistance shown in Table 31.

Economizer Operation During Power Fail- ure — Dampers have a spring return. In event of power fail- ure, dampers will return to fully closed position until power is restored. Do not manually operate damper motor.

Evacuation — Proper evacuation of the system will re- move noncondensables and ensure a tight, dry system before charging. Evacuate from both high and low side ports. Never use the system compressor as a vacuum pump. Refrigerant tubes and indoor coil should be evacuated to 500 microns. Always break a vacuum with dry nitrogen. The two possible methods are the deep vacuum method and the triple evacuation method

DEEP VACUUM METHOD — The deep vacuum method requires a vacuum pump capable of pulling a minimum vacu- um of 500 microns and a vacuum gage capable of accurately measuring this vacuum depth. The deep vacuum method is the most positive way of assuring a system is free of air and liquid water. (See Fig. 36.)

TRIPLE EVACUATION METHOD — The triple evacuation method should only be used when vacuum pump is capable of pumping down to 28 in. of mercury and system does not con- tain any liquid water. Proceed as follows:

1.Pump system down to 28 in. of mercury and allow pump to continue operating for an additional 15 minutes.

2.Close service valves and shut off vacuum pump.

3.Connect a nitrogen cylinder and regulator to system and open until system pressure is 2 psig.

4.Close service valve and allow system to stand for 1 hr. During this time, dry nitrogen will be able to diffuse throughout the system, absorbing moisture.

5.Repeat this procedure. System will then contain minimal amounts of contaminants and water vapor.
