COMPONENT OPERATION AND TESTING

WARNING

DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE

UNIT BEFORE SERVICING OR TESTING

COMPRESSORS

Compressors are single phase, 208/23 0 volt. All c ompres sor motors are permanent split capacitor type, using only a running capacitor across the start and run terminal.

All compressor s are internally spr ing mounted and exter nally mounted on rubber isolators.

Line Voltage Overload

The compressor is equipped with an internal line voltage over-

load. This overload is embedded in the windings of the motor to sense the motor temperature. The overload will open and disconnect the power to the motor due to high temperatures cause d b y :

1. A locked rotor.

2. Excessive running amps.

3. High discharge temperature.

4. Low refrigerant charge.

Testing Procedures

1. Ter minal "C" and "S" – no continuity – open w inding – replace compressor.

2. Ter minal "C" and "R" – no continuit y – open winding – replace compressor.

3. Terminal "R" and " S" – no continuity – open winding

- replace compressor.

4. T erminal "C" and the shell of the compressor – continuity – grounded motor – replace compressor.

5. Should continuity exist bet ween terminals "R" and "S", but not between terminals "C" and " S" and " C" and " R", the internal overload may be open. If the compressor is extremely hot, allow it sufﬁ cient time to cool. It may require as long as one hour for the compressor to cool sufﬁ ciently for the internal overload to close.

GROUND TEST

Use an ohmmeter set on its highest scale. Touch one lead to the co mpresso r body ( cle an poin t of co ntact, as a good connection is a must) and the other probe in turn to each compressor terminal. (See Figure 3. ) If a reading is obtained, the compressor is grounded and must be replaced.

COMPRESSOR WINDING TEST (Figure 2.)

Remove the compressor terminal box cover and disconnect the wires from the terminals. Using an ohmmeter, check continuity across the following:

FIGURE 2 COMPRESSOR WINDING TEST

CHECKING COMPRESSOR EFFICIENCY

The reason for compressor inefﬁ ciency is normally due to bro-

ken or damaged suction and/or discharge valves, reducing the ability of the compressor to pump refrigerant gas.

This condition can be checked as follows:

1. Install a piercing valve on the suction and discharge or liquid process tube.

2. Attach gages to the high and low sides of the system.

3. Start the system. Run a "cooling or heating performance test."

If test sh ows:

A. Below normal high side pressure. B. Above normal low side pressure. C. Low temperature difference across the coil.

The compressor valves are faulty - replace the compressor .

FAN MOTOR (Figure 4)

A 230 volt single phase permanent split capacitor motor is

used to drive the evaporator blower and condenser fan. A running capacitor is wired acros s the star t and r un terminals of the motor.

CAPACITOR, RUN

A run capacitor is wired across the auxiliary and main winding of a single phase permanent split capacitor motor such as the compressor and fan motors. A single capacitor can be used for each motor or a dual rated capacitor can be used for both.

The motor is totally enclosed and is protected with a line volt-

age overload located internally of the motor. The motor shaft is stainless steel to resist corrosion.

FIGURE 4 FAN MOTOR

FAN MOTOR – TEST

Disconnect power to the unit.

1. Determine that the capacitor is serviceable.

2. Disconnect the black lead from the circuit board.

3. Apply "live" test cord leads to the common terminal of the capacitor and the black lead. The motor should run at high speed.

SOLID STATE RELAY (Figure 5)

Two 50 amp rated 20 8/230 volt solid state relays are used to

energize the compressor and fan motor. T erminals 3 and 4 are the 208/230 volt line side. Terminals 1 and 2 are load side contacts.

The capacitor’s primary function is to reduc e the line current

while greatly improving the torque characteristic s of a motor.

The capacitor also reduces t he line current to the motor by

improving the power factor of the load. The line side of the capacitor is marked with a red dot and is wired to the line side of the circuit (see Figure 7.)

2. Check for visual damage such as bulges, cracks, or leaks.

SYSTEM CONTROL SWITCH (Figure 6)

This switch is double pole, single throw. Check for continuity

between terminals 2 and 3, and 5 and 6.

FIGURE 6 SWITCH, ON-OFF

3. For dual rated capacitor s, apply an ohmmeter lead to the common (C) terminal and the other probe to the compressor (HERM) terminal. A satisfactory capacitor will cause a deﬂ ection on the pointer, then gradually move back to inﬁ nity.

4. Reverse the leads of the probe and momentarily touch the capacitor terminals. The deﬂ ection of the pointer sh ould be two times that of the ﬁ rst check if the capacitor is good.

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to check the fan motor capacitor.

NOTE: A shorted capacitor will indicate a low resistance and the pointer will move more to the “ 0” end of the scale and remain there as long as the probes are connected. An open capacitor will show no movement of the pointer when placed across the terminals of the capacitor.
