Scroll Compressor Replacement

The compressor manifold system was purposely designed to provide proper oil return to each compressors. The refrig- erant manifold system must not be modified in any way.

Note: Altering the compressor manifold piping may cause oil return problems and compressor failure.

Should a compressor replacement become necessary and a suction line filter drier is to be installed, install it a mini- mum of 18 inches upstream of the oil separator tee. See Figure 5-2.

Anytime a compressor is replaced, the oil for each com- pressor within the manifolded set must be replaced.

The scroll compressor uses Trane OIL-42 without substitu- tion. The appropriate oil charge for a 9 and 10 Ton scroll compressor is 8.5 pints. For a 14 and 15 Ton scroll com- pressor, use 13.8 pints.

Note: Do Not release refrigerant to the atmosphere! If adding or removing refrigerant is required, the service technician must comply with all Federal, State and local laws. Refer to general service bulletin MSCU-SB-1 (latest edition).
