SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

 

Installation, start-up, and servicing of this

equipment

can be hazardous due to system pressures, electrical com­

ponents, and equipment location (roofs, elevated struc­

tures, etc.)-

 

Only trained, qualified installers and service technicians

should install, start up, and service this equipment.

 

When working on this equipment, observe precautions in

the literature and on tags, stickers, and labels attached to

the equipment and any other safety precautions that may

apply.

 

The Motormaster III device is a motor speed control de­ vice which adjusts condenser fan motor speed in response to declining liquid temperatures. A properly applied Motormaster III control extends the operating range of air condi­ tioning systems and permits operation at lower outdoor am­ bient temperatures.

Table 1 shows the ambient temperature in cooling at which each unit will operate without modification.
