DESCRIPTION
1.1INTRODUCTION
WARNING
Beware of unannounced starting of the
unit. The unit may cycle the fans and operating compressor unexpectedly as control requirements dictate. Press OFF key on the
Cab Command and disconnect power plug.
This manual contains Operating Data, Electrical Data
and Service Instructions for the Carrier Transicold
Model 30S truck refrigeration units listed in Table 1-1.
Additional support manuals are listed in Table 1-2.
The model/serial nameplate is located on the cover.
1.2GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The unit (Figure 1-1) is of the split system type with the
condenser mounted outside the truck body, evaporator
mounted in the body, and a Cab Command control
center mounted in the driver’s compartment. Two types
of compressor drive are available:
D Road operation: the road compressor is located in
the engine compartment and is driven by the engine
of the vehicle when in operation over--the--road
D Road/Standby version: a second compressor is
mounted in the condensing section and is driven by
an electric motor when in standby mode.
Table 1-1 Model Chart
1.3 CONDENSING SECTION
The condensing section (see Figure 1-2) contains the
condenser fan & coil, filter--drier, oil separator, hot gas
solenoid valve, receiver, and a condenser pressure
control valve. On road/standby units the condensing
section also houses the standby compressor, control
box and rectifier and houses the transformer assembly
(see Figure 1-2 and Figure 1-5 ).
1.3.1 Condenser/Subcooler
The condenser is of the tube and fin type and acts as a
heat exchanger in which the compressed refrigerant
gas is condensed into a liquid and lowered in temperature. Air movement over the condenser is provided by a
fan mounted in the condensing section.
A portion of the condenser is occupied by the subcooler.
Refrigerant leaving the receiver is passed through the
subcooler where additional heat is removed. Removal
of this additional heat helps to ensure that only liquid
refrigerant enters the thermal expansion valve.
1.3.2 Filter Drier
The drier is a cylindrical shell containing a drying agent
and screen. It is installed in the liquid line and functions
to keep t he system clean and remove moisture from the
refrigerant.

1.3.4 Hot Gas Solenoid Valve (HGS1)
HGS1 is normally closed and prevents discharge gas
from entering the evaporator. The valve opens to allow
hot gas refrigerant to be delivered from the compressor
to the evaporator during heat or defrost modes.
5.Evaporator coil
6.Compressor Pressure Regulating Valve
(CPR)115V only
1.3.5 Condenser Pressure Control Valve (HGS2)
The condenser pressure control valve (or condenser
closing valve) is a normally open valve that is powered
when the condenser pressure control switch (HP2) is
closed. With the solenoid coil de-energized, the valve is
in the cool mode and the compressor discharge gas is
delivered to the condenser. In the cool mode, heat is
removed from the air inside the truck body and rejected
to the surrounding air. With the solenoid coil energized,
the valve is in the heat mode and the compressor discharge gas is diverted to the evaporator and rejected to
the air inside the truck body.
1.3.6 Compressor
The compressor withdraws refrigerant gas from the
evaporator and delivers it to the condenser at an increased pressure. The pressure is such that refrigerant
heat can be absorbed by the surrounding air at ordinary
temperatures.

are also equipped with a remote mounted power receptacle.
1.3.8 Receiver
Liquid refrigerant from the condenser is deliver to the
receiver. The receiver serves as a liquid reservoir when
there are surges due to load changes in the system; as a
storage space when pumping down the system and as a
liquid seal against the entrance of refrigerant gas into
the liquid line.

1.3.9 High Pressure Switch (HP1)
HP1 is a normally closed switch which monitors the
system for high pressure and shuts down the unit when
pressure rises above predetermined setting. For HP1
settings see Section 1.6.2.
1.3.10 Condenser Pressure Control Switch (HP2)
HP2 is a normally open switch which closes to signal the
microprocessor to activate the condenser fan. HP2 also
cycles the condenser pressure control valve (HGS2)
and the quench valve (BPV) in addition to the condenser
fan in order to maintain head pressure for heating capacity. For HP2 settings see Section 1.6.2.
1.4 EVAPORATOR SECTION
The evaporator assembly consists of an evaporator fan,
evaporator coil, thermostatic expansion valve, defrost
terminationthermostat,acompressorpressure
regulating valve (115V only) and a quench valve.
1.4.1 Thermostatic Expansion Valve
The thermostatic expansion valve is an automatic device which controls the flow of liquid to the evaporator
according to changes in superheat to the refrigerant
leaving the evaporator. The thermal expansion valve
maintains a relatively constant degree of superheat in
the gas leaving the evaporator regardless of suction
pressure. Thus, the valve has a dual function; automatic
expansion control and preventing liquid from returning
to the compressor. For TXV superheat settings see
Section1.6.2. To adjust the TXV, refer to Section
4.15.2.
1.4.2 CompressorPressureRegulatingValve
(CPR) (115V Only) (See Figure 1-3)
The CPR valve is installed on the suction line of the
standby compressor to regulate the suction pressure
entering the compressor. The CPR valve is set to limit
the maximum suction pressure. For CPR settings refer
to section 1.6.2.
The suction pressure is controlled to avoid overloading
the electric motor during high box temperature
operation. To adjust the CPR valve, refer to section 4.17
1.4.3 Defrost Termination Thermostat (DTT)
Normally closed thermal switch on Standby units only.
As evaporator cools to setpoint, the switch closes and
signals microprocessor that defrost may be initiated.
Switch terminates defrost by opening at predetermined
setpoint. For DTT settings refer to section 1.6.2.
1.4.4 Quench Valve (BPV)
The quench valve is a normally closed solenoid valve
controlled by the quench thermostat (BPT) mounted on
the road compressor discharge line. The valve allows
metered liquid refrigerant to enter the suction line in the
evaporator in order to provide compressor cooling. For
BPT settings refer to section 1.6.2.
1.4.5 Evaporator
The evaporator is of the tube and fin type. The operation
of the compressor maintains a reduced pressure within
the coil. At this reduced pressure, the liquid refrigerant
evaporates at a temperature sufficiently low enough to
absorb heat from the air. Air movement over the evaporator is provided by an electric fan.
1.4.6 Low Pressure Switch (LP)
The low pressure switch is a normally closed switch
which signals the microprocessor to shut down the unit
when the system is outside the low pressure limit. For
LP settings refer to section 1.6.2.

1.8REFRIGERANT Circuit
1.8.1 Cooling (See Figure 1 -9)
When cooling, the unit operates as a vapor compression
refrigeration system. The main components of the
system are the reciprocating compressor, air-cooled
condenser, thermostatic expansion valve and the direct
expansion evaporator.
The compressor raises the pressure and temperature of
the refrigerant and forces it through the discharge check
valve and condenser pressure control valve into the
condenser tubes. The discharge check valves prevent
reverse flow through the non operating compressor.
When operating on the road compressor, the flow also
passes through the oil separator where oil is removed
and returned to the road compressor.
The condenser fan circulates surrounding air over the
outside of the condenser tubes. Heat transfer is thus
established from the refrigerant gas (inside the tubes) to
the condenser air (flowing over the tubes). The
condenser tubes have fins designed to improve the
transfer of heat. This removal of heat causes the
refrigerant to liquefy. Liquid refrigerant flows from the
condenser to the receiver.
The receiver stores the additional charge necessary for
low ambient operation and for heating and defrost
modes.
The refrigerant leaves the receiver and flows through a
manual receiver shut-off valve (king valve).
The refrigerant then flows through a check valve. The
check valve serves to prevent reverse flow of refrigerant
during the heating/defrost cycle.
The refrigerant then flows through the filter-drier, where
an absorbent keeps it dry and clean. The refrigerant
then flows though a sight glass. The sight glass is fitted
with an indicator that changes color to indicate moisture
content of the refrigerant. The refrigerant then flows
through the subcooler which removes additional heat
from the liquid to improve system efficiency.
The liquid than enters the thermostatic expansion valve
(with external pressure equalizer) which regulates the
flow rate of refrigerant towards the evaporator in order to
obtain maximum use of the evaporator heat transfer
surface.
The evaporator tubes have aluminium fins to increase
heat transfer; therefore heat is removed from the air
circulated through the evaporator. This cold air is
circulated throughout the truck to maintain the cargo at
the desired temperature.
The transfer of heat from the air to the low temperature
liquid refrigerant causes the liquid to vaporize. The
vapor at low temperature and is then drawn out by the
compressor. From this point, the cycle starts over.
On 115v units the refrigerant then enters the
compressor regulating valve (CPR) which regulates
refrigerant pressure entering the compressor. The cycle
then starts over.
The quench valve opens as required to maintain a
maximum discharge temperature. (Refer to section
1.6.2 for settings.)
1.8.2 Heat And Defrost (See Figure 1-10)
When refrigerant vapor is compressed to a high
pressure and temperature in a compressor, the
mechanicalenergynecessarytooperatethe
compressor is transferred to the gas as it is being
compressed. This energy is referred to as the “heat of
compression” and is used as the source of heat during
the heating or defrost cycle.
When the microprocessor activates heating or defrost,
the hot gas solenoid valve energizes and the condenser
pressure control valve energizes, closing the port to the
condenser and opening a port which allows heated
refrigerant vapor to flow directly to the evaporator coil .
The main difference between heating and defrosting is
that when in heating mode the evaporator fans continue
to run thus circulating the air throughout the truck to heat
the product. When in defrost, the evaporator fans stop,
thus allowing the heated vapor to defrost any ice
build-up on the coil.
When the pressure is above the setting of the
condenser pressure control switch, the condenser
pressure control valve (HGS2) is closed to prevent
additional pressure rise in the system. When pressure is
below the setting of the condenser pressure control
switch, the valve is opened to pressurize the receiver
and force additional refrigerant into the system and
increase heating capacity.

2.6.2 Low Battery Voltage Alarm for Road Only
Units
There is a 40 second time delay during start--up. After
this delay if the battery voltage drops below 10V ±0.2V
for Standby units or 10.5V ±0.5V for Road only units, the
microprocessor will react 20 seconds later and the unit
will go out oftemperature control mode.The
microprocessor will check the voltage after another 20
seconds. If battery voltage still has not risen, the unit will
remain out of temperature control mode for another 10
minutes, and the battery alarm will be activated and the
Cab Command will display the message “bAt”. Unit will
return to temperature control mode if battery voltage
has risen after 10 minutes. If the battery voltage has not
risen after this 10 minute period the unit will remain out
of temperature control mode another 2 minutes and the
microprocessor will check the battery voltage every 2
minutes. Unit will return to temperature control mode in
its current configuration when battery voltage rises to
10V ±0.2V for Standby units or 10.5V ±0.5V for Road
only units.

3.1 SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
General operation sequences for cooling, null, and
heating are provided in the following paragraphs. The
microprocessorautomaticallyselectsthemode
necessary to maintain box temperature at setpoint.
3.1.1 Perishable Mode
The unit operates in the perishable mode with set points
above 10°F(--12°C)
a. With return air temperature above setpoint and de-
creasing, the unit will be cooling with the compressor
and evaporator fans operating. (See Section 1.8.1 for
a description of the refrigeration circuit during cooling) The condenser fan will operate for the first three
minutes after start up then operate under the control
of the condenser pressure control switch (HP2). The
green unit operating LED will operate in accordance
with Figure 2-2 or Figure 2-3.
b. If discharge temperature increases to the setpoint of
the quench thermostat (BPT), the thermostat will
close, energizing the quench valve (BPV). This will allow liquid into the suction line in order to cool compressor. Once the discharge temperature decreases
to the certainty of the PPT, the thermostat will open,
DE--energizing the PP.

3.1.2 Frozen Mode
The unit operates in the frozen mode with setpoints at or
below 10°F(--12°C). Operation in the frozen mode is the
same as in the perishable mode except no heating takes
place.
c. Once temperature decreases to the certainty, the unit
will enter the null mode. If the continuous air flow parameter is set to ON, the evaporator fans will continue
to operate with all other components OFF. If the continuous air flow parameter is OFF, the evaporator
fans and all other components will be OFF. A 5 minute delay is required before restart is allowed.
d. If temperature increases during the null mode, the
unit will restart in cooling.
e. If temperature continues to decrease the unit will en-
ter the heating mode with the compressor and evaporator fans operating and the hot gas solenoid valve
(HGS1) energized (open). The condenser fan and
condenser pressure control valve (HGS2) will operate under the control of the condenser pressure
switch (HP2). If the engine coolant or electric heat option is installed, the optional heaters will also be energized. (See Section 1.8.2 for a description of the refrigeration circuit during heat and defrost.)

3.2DEFROST CYCLE
Defrost is an independent cycle overriding cooling and
heating functions in order to melt frost and ice from the
evaporator when necessary. Defrost may be initiated by
the microprocessor or manually by the operator once
the defrost termination thermostat has closed. (See
Section 1.6.2 for settings). In defrost mode, the
microprocessor displays “dF” on the cab command and
setpoint is no longer displayed.
During defrost, the evaporator fans shut down and
operation of the condenser fan is controlled by the
microprocessor. The end of the cycle is controlled by the
opening of the defrost termination thermostat. (See
Section 1.8.2 for a description of the refrigeration circuit
during heat and defrost.)
3.3 MINIMUM OFF TIME
Once the unit has cycled off, it will remain off for the
minimum off time of 5 minutes. This prevents the unit
from rapid cycling due to changes in air temperature. Air
temperature in the box changes rapidly but it takes time
for the product temperature to change.

4.2BELT MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
Table 4-3. Belt Tension (See Figure 4-2)
WARNING
Beware of V- belt and belt-driven components as the unit may start automatically.
A belt tension gauge provides an accurate and easy
method of adjusting belts to their proper tension.
Properly adjusted belts give long lasting and efficient
service. Too much tension shortens belt and bearing life,
and too little tension causes slippage and excessive belt
wear. It is also important to keep belts and sheaves free
of any foreign material which may cause the belts to slip.
The Belt Tension gauge can be used to adjust all belts.
The readings which we specify for Carrier Transicold
units are applicable only for our belts and application, as
the tension is dependent on the size of the belt and
distance between sheaves. When using this gauge, it
should be placed as close as possible to the midpoint
between two sheaves.

4.3INSTALLING R-134A MANIFOLD GUAGE SET
A R-134a manifold gauge/hose set with self-sealing
hoses is required for service of models covered within
this manual. The manifold gauge/hose set is available
from Carrier Transicold. (Carrier Transicold P/N
07-00294-00, which includes items 1 through 6,
Figure 4-3). To perform service using the manifold
gauge/hose set, do the following:
4.3.1 Preparing Manifold Gauge/Hose Set For Use
a. If the manifold gauge/hose set is new or was
exposed to the atmosphere it will need to be evacuated to remove contaminants and air as follows:

Belt tension depends on each kit. Refer to Installation
Instructions provided with the kit for belt tension
requirements. In each kit installation instruction, we
indicate the belt tension (given with belt tension gauge
P/N 07-00203-00.
When installing a new V-belt the tension should be
somewhat higher than specified and readjusted after
allowing the unit to run for some time.

b. Back seat (turn counterclockwise ) both field service
couplers (see Figure 4-3) and midseat both hand
valves.
c. Connect the yellow hose to a vacuum pump and an
R-134a cylinder.
d. Evacuate to 10 inHg (254mmHg) and then charge
with R-134a to a slightly positive pressure of 1.0 psig
(0.07 Bar).
e. Front seat both manifold gauge set hand valves and
disconnect from cylinder. The gauge set is now
ready for use.
4.3.2 Connecting Manifold Gauge/Hose Set
To connect the manifold gauge/hose set for reading
pressures, do the following:
a. Remove service valve stem cap and check to make
sure it is backseated. Remove access valve cap.
b. Connect the field service coupler (see Figure 4-3) to
the access valve.
c. Turn the field service coupling knob clockwise, which
will open the system to the gauge set.
d. Read system pressures.

4.3.3 Removing the Manifold Gauge Set
1. While the compressor is still ON, backseat the high
side service valve.
2. Midseat both hand valves on the manifold gauge set
and allow the pressure in the manifold gauge set to
be drawn down to low side pressure. This returns
any liquid that may be in the high side hose to the
system.
CAUTION
To prevent trapping liquid refrigerant in the
manifold gauge set be sure set is brought to
suction pressure before disconnecting.
3. Backseat the low side service valve. Backseat both
field service couplers and frontseat both manifold set
hand valves. Remove the couplers from the access
valves.
4. Install both service valve stem caps and access
valve caps (finger-tight only).

4.4REMOVING THE REFRIGERANT CHARGE
NOTE
To avoid damage to the earth’s ozone layer, use
a refrigerant recovery system whenever removing refrigerant.
Connect a refrigerant recovery system (Carrier P/N
M V S -- 1 1 5 -- F -- L -- C T( 1 1 5 V )o rM V S -- 2 4 0 -- F -- L -- C T
(240V) ) to the unit to remove refrigerant charge. Refer
to instructions provided by the manufacturer of the refrigerant recovery system.
4.4.1 Refrigerant Removal From A Non --Working
Compressor.
To remove the refrigerant from a compressor that is not
operational, do the following:
a. Attach a manifold gauge set as shown in Figure 4-3
b. Recover refrigerant with a refrigerant recovery sys-
tem.
c. Service or replace components as required and leak
A refrigerant leak check should always be performed
after the system has been opened to replace or repair a
component. To check for leaks in the refrigeration
system, perform the following procedure:
NOTE
Use only R134a to pressurize the system. Any
other gas or vapor will contaminate the system
which will require additional purging and evacuation of t he high side (discharge) of the system.
a. If system is without refrigerant, charge system with
refrigerant to build up pressure between 30 to 50 psig
(2 to 3.4 Bars). Remove refrigerant cylinder and leak
check all connections.
b. Add sufficient nitrogen to raise system pressure to
150 to 200 psig (10.21 to 13.61 bar).
c. Check for leaks. The recommended procedure for
finding leaks in a system is with an electronic leak detector. (Carrier P/N 07--00295--00). Testing joints
with soap suds is satisfactory for locating large leaks
but be necessary when an electronic leak detector will
not function correctly.
d. Remove refrigerant using a refrigerant recovery sys-
tem and repair any leaks. Evacuate and dehydrate
the unit. (Refer to section 4.6) Charge unit with refrigerant. (Refer to section 4.7)

The presence of moisture in a refrigeration system can
have many undesirable effects. The most common are
copper plating, acid sludge formation, “freezing-up” of
metering devices by free water, and formation of acids,
resulting in metal corrosion.
4.6.2 Preparation
a. Evacuate and dehydrate only after pressure leak test.
(Refer to section 4.5)
b. Essential tools to properly evacuate and dehydrate
any system include a good vacuum pump (5 cfm =
8m#H volume displacement, P/N 07-00176-01) and a
good vacuum indicator such as a thermocouple vacu-
Use of a compound gauge is not recommended
because of its inherent inaccuracy.
c. Keep the ambient temperature above 60_F (15.6_C)
to speed evaporation of moisture. If ambient temperature is lower than 60_F (15.6_C), ice might form before moisture removal is complete. Heat lamps or alternate sources of heat may be used to raise system
temperature.
d. Additional time may be saved during a complete sys-
tem pump down by replacing the filter--drier with a
section of copper tubing and the appropriate fittings.
Installation of a new filter--drier may be performed
during the charging procedure.

d. Start vacuum pump. Slowly open valves halfway and
then open vacuum gauge valve.
e. Evacuate unit until the electronic vacuum gauge indi-
cates 2000 microns. Close the electronic vacuum
gauge and vacuum pump valves. Shut off the vacuum
pump. Wait a few minutes to be sure the vacuum
holds.
f. Break the vacuum with clean dry nitrogen. Raise sys-
tem pressure to approximately 2 psig (0.14 Bar).
g. Purge nitrogen from system.
h. Repeat steps e through g one time.
i. Evacuate unit to 500 microns. Close off vacuum
pump valve and stop pump. Wait five minutes to see if
vacuum holds. This checks for residual moisture and/
or leaks.
j. With a vacuum still in the unit, the refrigerant charge
may be drawn into the system from a refrigerant con-
tainer on a scale. The correct amount of refrigerant
may be added by observing the scale. (Refer to sec-
tion 4.7)
4.7CHARGING THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
4.7.1 Checking The Refrigerant Charge
a. Start unit in cooling mode and run approximately ten
minutes.
b. Partially block off air flow to condenser coil so dis-
charge pressure rises to 174 psig (12 Bars).
c. The unit is correctly charged when there are no
bubbles in the sight glass.
4.7.2 Installing A Complete Charge
g. Start unit and check for non--condensables.
4.7.3 Adding A Partial Charge
NOTE
When partially charging the refrigeration system with R134a, install a vapor charge.
a. Place refrigerant cylinder on scale and connect
charging line between suction port and refrigerant
cylinder.
b. Note weight of refrigerant cylinder.
c. Run unit on high speed cool and open cylinder vapor
valve.
d. If necessary, partially block off air flow to condenser
coil so discharge pressure rises to 174 psig (12 Bars).
e. The unit is correctly charged when there are no
bubbles in the sight glass.
f. Start unit and check for non--condensables.
NOTE
It may be necessary to finish charging the unit
using the partial charge method, due to pressure rise in the high side of the system. (Refer to
paragraph 4.7.3)
a. Dehydrate unit and leave in deep vacuum. (Refer to
section 4.6)
b. Place refrigerant cylinder on scale and connect
charging line from cylinder to receiver outlet (king)
valve. Purge charging line at outlet valve.
c. Note weight of refrigerant cylinder.
d. Open liquid valve on refrigerant cylinder. Open king
valve half way and allow the liquid refrigerant to flow
into the unit until the correct weight of refrigerant has
been added as indicated by scale. Correct charge will
be found in Table 1-1.
NOTE
It is possible that all liquid may not be pulled into
the receiver, as outlined in step d. above. In this
case, vapor charge remaining refrigerant
through the suction service port (See Section
4.7.3).
e. When refrigerant cylinder scale indicates that the cor-
rect charge has been added, close liquid line valve on
cylinder and backseat the king valve.
f. Replace all valve caps.
4.8CHECKING FOR NON--CONDENSABLES
To check for non--condensables, proceed as follows:
a. Stabilize system to equalize pressure between the
suction and discharge side of the system.
b. Check temperature at the condenser and receiver.
c. Check pressure at the receiver outlet (King) valve.
d. Check saturation pressure as it corresponds to the
condenser/receiver temperature using the Temperature-Pressure Chart, Table 4-4.
e. If gauge reading is 3 psig (0.2 Bar) or more than the
calculated P/T pressure in step d., non--condensables are present.
f. Remove refrigerant using a refrigerant recovery sys-
tem. (Refer to section 4.4)
g. Evacuate and dehydrate the system. (Refer to sec-
tion 4.6.)
h. Charge the unit. (Refer to section 4.7.)

f. Evacuate, dehydrate and recharge unit. (See Sec-
When adjusting the compressor pressure regulating
valve (CPR) (see Figure 4-8), the unit must be running
in heating or defrost mode. This will ensure a suction
pressure above the proper CPR setting. To adjust the
CPR valve, proceed as follows :
a. Install a gauge on the suction line .
b. Remove cap from CPR valve.
c. With an 8 mm Allen wrench, loosen the jam nut.
d. Using the 8 mm Allen wrench, adjust the set screw. To
raise the suction pressure turn the set screw clockwise; to lower the suction pressure, turn counterclockwise. Refer to paragraph 1.6.2 for CPR valve
setting.
e. When the setting has been adjusted, tighten the jam
nut securely against the set screw. This will prevent
any movement of the set screw due to vibrations in
the unit. Replace the cap.
4.15 THERMOSTATIC EXPANSION VALVE
The thermal expansion valve is an automatic device
which maintains constant superheat of the refrigerant
gas leaving the evaporator regardless of suction
pressure. The valve functions are:(a) automatic
response of refrigerant flow to match the evaporator
load and (b) prevention of liquid refrigerant entering the
compressor. Unless the valve is defective, it seldom
requires any maintenance.
NOTE
Due to the time involved in adjusting the superheat, replace the valve rather than adjusting it.
g. Check superheat (See Section 1.6.2.g.).
4.15.2 Measuring Superheat
a. Remove insulation from expansion valve bulb and
suction line. See Figure 4-9
b. Loosen one TXV bulb clamp and make sure area un-
der clamp (above TXV bulb) is clean.
c. Place thermocouple above (parallel to) the TXV bulb
and then secure loosened clamp making sure both
bulbs are firmly secured to suction line as shown in
Figure 4-9
d. Connect an accurate gauge to the ¼” port on the suc-
tion service valve.
e. Run unit until stabilized at --4_F (-20_C) box tempera-
ture.
f. From the temperature/pressure chart (Table 4-4), de-
termine the saturation temperature corresponding to
the evaporator outlet pressure.
g. Note the temperature of the suction gas at the expan-
sion valve bulb.
h. Subtract the saturation temperature determined in
Step f. from the average temperature measured in
Step g.. The difference is the superheat of the suction
gas. Refer to paragraph 1.6.2 for superheat setting.
i. If required, adjust superheat by turning the adjusting
screw located under the cap on the side of the valve.

4.16 DIAGNOSTIC TOOL
NOTE
The Cab Command diagnostic tool comes with
two jumpers. These are not applicable to the
30S system and should not be used in this application.
PRIMARY
TOOL
Figure 4-10 Cab Command Diagnostic Tool
(CTD P/N 07--00440-- 00)
a. Testing a cab command cable that is already
installed on the unit and routed into the truck cab requires the use of both pieces of the diagnostic tool.
b. Unplug the cab command cable from the micropro-
cessor and also from the back of the cab command
module.
c. Plug one end of the cable into the primary tool and
the other end into the remote tool.
d. Begin the test by turning on the power switch and ob-
serving the sequence of green lights. As each circuit
is tested, the corresponding light is illuminated. If a
fault is found in the cable, the light that corresponds
to that particular circuit is not illuminated.
e. To test a cable that is not installed on a unit, simply
plug each end of the cable into the primary tool and
perform the test as above.
4.17 MICROPROCESSOR
REMOTE
TOOL
When welding is required on the unit frame, or on the
front area of the truck, ALL wiring to the microprocessor
MUST be disconnected. When welding is performed on
other areas of the truck and van, the welder ground
connection MUST be in close proximity to the area being
welded. It is also a good practice to remove both battery
cables before welding on either the unit frame or the
truck to prevent possible damage to other components
such as the alternator and voltage regulator.
4.18 EVAPORAT OR COIL CLEANING
The use of recycled cardboard cartons is increasing.
The recycled cardboard cartons create much more fiber
dust during transport than ”new” cartons. The fiber dust
and particles are drawn into the evaporator where they
lodge between the evaporator fins. If the coil is not
cleaned on a regular basis, sometimes as often as after
each trip, the accumulation can be great enough to
restrict air flow, cause coil icing, repetitive defrosts and
loss of unit capacity. Due to the ”washing” action of
normal defrost the fiber dust and particles may not be
visible on the face of the coil but may accumulate deep
within.
It is recommended to clean an the evaporator coil on a
regular basis, not only to remove cardboard dust, but to
remove any grease oil film which sometimes coats the
fins and prevents water from draining into the drain pan.
Cardboard fiber particles after being wetted and dried
several times can be very hard to remove. Therefore,
several washings may be necessary.
a. Spray coil with a mild detergent solution such as any
good commercial-grade automatic dish washer detergent and let the solution stand for a few minutes.
Reverse flush (opposite normal air flow) with clean
water at mild pressure. A garden hose with spray
nozzle is usually sufficient. Make sure drain lines are
clean.
b. Run unit until defrost mode be initiated to check for
proper draining from drain pan.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should anyone attempt to repair the microprocessor module
or Cab Command! Should a problem develop with these components, contact your
nearest Carrier Transicold dealer for replacement.
Although there is less danger of electrical static
discharge (ESD) damage in the outdoor environment,
where the processor is likely to be handled, proper
board handling techniques should be stressed. Boards
should always be handled by their edges, in much the
same way one would handle a photograph. This not only
precludes the possibility of ESD damage, but also
lowers the possibility of physical damage to the
electronic components. Although the microprocessor
boards are fairly rugged when assembled, they are
more fragile when separated and should always be
handled carefully.
4.19 CONDENSER COIL CLEANING
Remove all foreign material from the condenser coil by
reversing the normal air flow. (Air is pulled in through the
front.) Compressed air or water may be used as a
cleaning agent. It may be necessary to use warm water
mixed with any good commercial dishwasher detergent.
Rinse coil with fresh water if a detergent is used.
Beware of unannounced starting of the unit. The unit may cycle the fans and operating compressor
unexpectedly as control requirements dictate. Press OFF key on the cab command, turn vehicle engine off or disconnect power plug and open circuit breaker.
CAUTION
Under no circumstances should anyone attempt to service the microprocessor module and cab command. Should a problem develop with the control system, contact your nearest Carrier Transicold
dealer for replacement components.

Transicold dealer for replacement.
CAUTION
Observe proper polarity when installing battery, negative battery terminal must be grounded.
CAUTION
Underno circumstances should a technician electrically probe the processor at any point, other than
the connector terminals where the harness attaches. Microprocessor components operate at
different voltage levels and at extremely low current levels. Improper use of voltmeters, jumper
wires, continuity testers, etc. could permanently damage the processor.
CAUTION
Most electronic components are susceptible to damage caused by electrical static discharge (ESD).
In certain cases, the human body can have enough static electricity to cause resultant damage to the
componentsby touch. This is especiallytrue of the integrated circuits found on the microprocessor.
Use proper board handling techniques. (See Section 4.17).
