Maintenance

WARNING

Hazardous Voltage!

Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects before servicing. Follow proper lockout/ tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvertently energized. Failure to disconnect power before servicing could result in death or serious injury.

Temperature-Actuated Drain Valve (model PTHE Only)

The PTHE is equipped with a temperature-actuated drain valve located in the base pan. As the outdoor ambient decreases to 55°F, the drain valve will begin to open. The valve will be completely open when the outdoor ambient temperature falls to 50°F.

Power Cord Removal

1.Disconnect power to the unit.

2.Remove the unit front cover.

3.Remove two screws of power cord connector front cover.

4.Remove the power cord strain relief.

5.Remove power cord from connector.

Reversing Valve

Occasionally the reversing valve may stick in the heating or cooling position or in the mid-operation.

When stuck in the mid-position, part of the discharge gas from the compressor is directed back to the suction side resulting in excessively high suction pressure.

Check the operation of the valve by starting the system and switching the operation from COOLING to HEATING and then back to COOLING.

If no voltage is registered to the coil, check the operation of the reversing relay and the continuity of the connecting wires.

If voltage is registered at the coil, tap the valve body lightly while switching the system from HEATING to COOLING etc. If this fails to cause the valve to switch position, remove the coil connector cap and wiring and test the continuity of the valve coil. If the coil does not test continuous replace it.

If the valve is inoperative, replace.

Component Replacement

Replacement of the compressor, evaporator, condenser, capillary tubes and reversing valve must be in accordance with accepted service practices. These procedures include a complete evacuation of both high and low sides, and changing of the capillary tube assembly whenever the refrigerant system is opened.

Before replacing a component in the sealed system, make sure that the cause for complaint does not lie in the electrical circuit, control, overload or is due to some other reason. The serviceman must be familiar with the operational characteristics of the product and should not jump to conclusions.

WARNING

Hazardous Voltage!

Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects before servicing. Follow proper lockout/ tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvertently energized. Failure to disconnect power before servicing could result in death or serious injury.

Unit Disassembly Procedures

1.Disconnect power to the unit.

2.Remove the unit front cover.

3.Remove the three screws on each side of the chassis that secure the chassis to the wall sleeve.

4.Carefully slide the chassis out of the wall sleeve and place on floor or a protected cart.

WARNING

Hazardous Voltage!

Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects before servicing. Follow proper lockout/ tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvertently energized. Failure to disconnect power before servicing could result in death or serious injury.
