START-UP
Unit Preparation — Make sure unit has been
installed in accordance with installation instruc
tions and applicable codes.
Compressor Mounting — Compressors are inter
nally spring mounted. Do not loosen or remove
compressor holddown bolts.
Internal Wiring — Check all electrical connections
in unit control boxes. . .tighten as required.
Refrigerant Service Valves — Eaeh unit system
has 2 Schrader type serviee ports, one on the suetion
line and one on the compressor discharge line. Be
sure that eaps on the ports are tight.
Crankcase Heater(s) are energized as long as there
is power to the unit. Energize heater(s) 24 hours
prior to base unit start-up.
Cooling — To start unit, turn on main power
supply. Set system selector switch to COOL and
fan switch at AUTO. Adjust thermostat to a setting
below room temperature. Compressor starts on
closure of contactor.
Check cooling effects at a setting above room
temperature. Cheek unit charge. Refer to Refrig
eration Charge in Service section.
Reset thermostat at a position above room tem
-i
perature. Compressor will shut off.
TO SHUT OFF UNIT — Set system seleetor switch
at OFF position or reset thermostat at a position
above room temperature. Units are equipped with
t
Cyele-LOC™ proteetion device. Unit shuts down on
any safety trip, and indicator light on thermostat
comes on. Cheek reason for safety trip.
Compressor restart is accomplished by manual
reset at the thermostat by turning the seleetor switch
to OFF and then to ON.
Heating — To start unit, turn on main power
supply. Refer to Crankcase Heaters.
Set thermostat at HEAT and a setting above
room temperature, fan at AUTO.
First stage of thermostat energizes the first-stage
eleetric heater; seeond-stage electric heater elements
if installed. Cheek heating effeets at air supply
grille(s).
TO SHUT OFF UNIT — Set system selector switch
at OFF or set heating selector lever below room
temperature.
Ventilation {Continuous Fan) — Set fan and sys
tem selector switches at ON and OFF, respectively.
Evaporator air fan operates continuously to provide
constant air circulation.
Economizer Operation {50CD008) — See
pages 9 thru 12 for start-up and checkout proce
dures. If unit is equipped with modulating out
door air control (economizer), it should operate as
follows;
COOLING MODE — Evaporator and condenser
fans and compressor energize when there is a call
12
Page 13
ф
for cooling and outdoor ambient temperature is
above outdoor air thermostat setting. The econo
mizer damper moves to VENT position.
Evaporator fan starts and economizer damper
opens fully upon a first-stage call for cooling when
outdoor ambient temperature is below the outdoor
air thermostat setting. Compressor remains off.
Compressor is energized and mechanical cooling
integrates with economizer cooling upon a secondstage call for cooling.
Mechanical cooling is locked out when ambient
temperature is below 50 F.
Economizer damper modulates when mixed air
temperature is below mixed air thermostat (non-
adjustable) setting.
An economizer control thermostat (ECT) is
located on the evaporator coil. This thermostat
guards against abnormally low suction tempera
tures while operating mechanical cooling in con
junction with economizer. Low suction tempera
tures can lead to frosting on the evaporator coil.
If frost buildup is detected, thermostat turns off
economizer, thus closing the outdoor air damper.
This raises air temperature entering the evaporator
coil and melts frost. Once frost is melted, the
economizer is re-energized.
During unoccupied periods, if a field-supplied
night switch is used and is opened, the outdoor air
damper closes.
HEATING MODE — Outdoor air damper stays at
VENT position while evaporator air fan runs. If
field-supplied night switch is used, the outdoor air
damper closes when switch is open.

NO CHARGE — Use standard evacuating tech
niques. After evacuating system, weigh in the
specified amount of refrigerant. (Refer to Table 1.)
LOW CHARGE, COOLING — Using Cooling
Charging Chart, Fig. 28, vary refrigerant until the
conditions of the chart are met. Note the charging
chart is different from type normally used. Chart is
based on charging the units to the correct superheat
for the various operating conditions. Accurate pres
sure gage and temperature sensing device are re
quired. Connect the pressure gage to the service port
on the suction line. Mount the temperature
sensing device on the suction line and insulate it so
that outdoor ambient temperature does not affect
the reading. Indoor air cfm must be within the
normal operating range of the unit.

TO USE COOLING CHARGING CHART —
Take the outdoor ambient temperature and read the
suction pressure gage. Refer to chart to determine
what suction temperature should he. If suction tem
perature is high, add refrigerant. If suction tempera
ture is low, carefully blow some of the charge. Re
check the suction pressure as charge is adjusted.
Example; 50CD/CH008 (Fig. 28)
