E
nergy
The “Residential” (40 Hr. Work Week) Schedule has four (4) time periods: 06:00,
08:00, 18:00, and 22:00. This option will cause your Kühl Q unit to raise the room
temperature temporarily to 85°F during the hours wh
en most people are away
at work, lower them again to 78°F prior to the time when most people will return
home, and then raise slightly to 82°F to maintain a comfortable temperature
overnight.
The “Commercial” (7-Day Business Week) Schedule has two (2) time periods:
07:00 and 18:00. This option will cause your air conditioner
to raise temperatures
to 84°F after typical working hours and on weekends when commercial spaces
ar
e ty
pically unoccupied.
(See Control Panel Operation Instructions Section)
Customizable Programming Options:
Customizable schedules, with up to four temperature adjustments per day, can
either be uploaded to the unit via the air conditioner’s built-in micro USB interface

During the (SYSTEM mode COOL or HEAT), the fan speed automatically varies depending on the difference between the unit's set point on the control
panel and the actual room temperature. Let me explain. Say for example, you’re working in your garage and you open the big door for several minutes. The
system will sense a wide difference between the set point and the actual room temperature. When this occurs, the system fan speed increases to HIGH for
iod of time. The fan speed decreases, in step, as the temperature difference decreases. When the room temperature matches the system's set point,
a per

Compressor Operation:
The reversing valve only changes when required
to provide cooling or heat pump. The RV valve
stays in it's last state until required to change.
Cooling Mode
Once the ambient temperature rises past the cool demand threshold (Cool Set Point + 1.5 ˚F) (see gure below), and
the compressor is not locked out, the cooling cycle begins. As shown in the gure below, the fan is started 5 seconds
prior to the compressor. Once the ambient temperature has been lowered to the cool set point (Cool Set Point minus
.25 ˚F), the cooling cycle starts to terminate by shutting off the compressor. After a 30 seconds delay, the fan is shut
off. (See gure below for graphic details)
23
Heating Mode Control Operation
There are two heating methods: Heat Pump and Electric Resistance Heat.
There are 3 types of units that provide heating: Heat Pump Only (Model YS10M10)
Heat Pump with Electric Heat and Cool with Electric Heat.
Heat Control Operation Heat Pump Only Unit (YS10M10 has no electric heat back-up)
Once the ambient temperature falls below the Heating Demand Threshold
(1.5 ˚F Below the Heat Set Point Temperature), the heating cycle begins. The fan is turned on 5 seconds before.
Once the ambient temperature has been raised to the Heat Satised Point (Set point + .25 ˚F), the compressor is
turned off. The fan is turned off 15 seconds later. The gure below illustrates the basic heat pump operation.
Satised Point
Heat Control (Heat Pump Only)
YS10M10 Heat Pump Defrost Cycle Operation
The defrost in this unit is an active reverse cycle. The defrost control runs in the background and determines when a
defrost cycle is required. Once initiated, the defrost cycle runs to completion.
The defrost cycle can only be initiated when the heat pump is in operation. The compressor will not be turned off to
avoid activating the compressor's time delay. The reversing valve will be switched to the cool mode position. The
indoor fan/blower will be turned off. Once the defrost cycle is nished, the system should re-enter a heating demand
cycle if required.
When the heat pump run time is 60 minutes or greater with an outdoor coil temperature of 26F degrees or lower, the
control will run an active defrost for up to 6 minutes. When the temperature at the outdoor coil reaches 54F degrees,
the heat pump heat will resume.
24
Heat Pump With Electric Heat Operation
This heating is more complex due to the possibility of two heating methods. If the ambient indoor temperature is below the heat demand threshold (1.5˚F below the heat set point temperature), and the compressor is not locked out,
turn on compressor. If the ambient indoor temperature is 0.25˚F above the heat set point turn off the compressor.
If the compressor is locked out & electric heat is available:
1. Turn on the electric heat until the compressor is not locked out.
2. After lockout, turn off the electric heat, wait 5 seconds, then turn on the compressor.
If Electric Heat is Available
After the Heat button is initially pressed, the unit will run the electric heater rst until the initial set point is satised (Hot
Start Feature). After the initial start, the unit will switch to Heat Pump heat and decide between Heat Pump heat and
Electric heat based on the following two monitored conditions:
Condition 1
If the outdoor coil temperature sensor drops to 30 ˚F or less for 2 consecutive minutes, the unit will switch to electric heat
if available. Thereafter, the unit will switch back to Heat Pump heat if the outdoor coil temperature sensor rises to 45 ˚F or
greater.
If Electric Heat is not available (out of order) and the outdoor coil temperature sensor drops to 30 ˚F or less for 2
consecutive minutes, then the compressor and fan will turn off. Thereafter, the unit will switch back to Heat Pump heat if
the outdoor coil temperature rises to 45 ˚F or greater.
25
Heat Pump With Electric Heat Operation (Continued)
Condition 2
If the Δ (delta) (set point temperature minus the ambient indoor temperature) is greater than 5 ˚F, then the unit will switch
to electric heat, if available. The unit will continue to operate with electric heat until the heat demand is satised. Note that
the electric heat switches on after the Δ temp passes 5°F and the heat pump switches off. Also note that the electric heat
will run until the heat demand is satised. When another heat demand cycle is initiated, the heat pump will run unless the Δ
temp is greater than the electric heat threshold.
Automatic Emergency Heat
If the sealed system fails with a bad reversing valve or anything that causes the indoor coil to get colder than the indoor
ambient temperature:
1) If the indoor coil thermistor senses a 5 degree temperature drop as compared to the ambient temperature thermistor
and this lasts up to 5 minutes, the control board will switch the unit to electric heat and continue heating with it.
2) At this point, error code 15 is generated; heat pump failure. Indoor coil temperature lower than indoor ambient
temperature for 5 or more degrees for 5 consecutive minutes.
Note: It is Ok to continue to use the unit with the electric heater until the heat pump is repaired.
Electric Heat Operation in Cool with Electric Heat Units
When in the Heat mode, with and without Fan Mode Auto (Fan cycling):
If the indoor ambient temperature is below the Heat Demand Threshold (Heat Set Point minus 1.5 ˚F), turn on electric heat.
If Ambient is 0.3 ˚F above the Heat Set Point turn off the electric heat.
System Mode Auto
This mode provides automatic change over between cool and heat. The auto mode runs based on the room ambient
temperature vs. the Demand Thresholds. It is only available in Heat-Cool Unit.
Notes:
There is a buffer zone between the cool and heat set points where no heating or cooling is allowed to occur. It is critical
that the Cool Demand Threshold be greater than the Heat Demand Threshold by a minimum of 3° while in the Auto
System Mode. For example, if a user enters a value for the Auto Cooling Set Point that violates the minimum Δ 3° rule, the
Auto Heating Set Point will adjust accordingly.
Automatic Change Over Delay (Cool with Heat Units)
The change over delay ensures that any system heating or cooling over shoot does not trigger an opposite demand cycle.
The change over delay = 15 min. This timer blocks the opposite demand cycle from running until the timer expires. As an
example, if the last demand was a cool cycle, and another cool cycle is requested, the timer will not block the request.
However, if the last demand cycle was a cool cycle, and heat cycle is requested, the timer will block the request until the
change over delay is expired.
26
Compressor Lock Out Time
The lockout feature ensures that the compressor is de-energized for a period of time. The timer varies randomly
from 180 to 240 seconds
The compressor lockout is initiated every time the compressor is “off” due to:
(1) Satisfying the temperature set point
(2) Changing mode to fan only or heat
(3) Turning the unit off
(4) Control is rst plugged in or power is restored after failure
(5) Line power is restored from a brown out condition
Wait ICON (Hour Glass )
The wait icon will be turned on when the compressor is locked out and during demand for cooling or heat pump
compressor operation. The Wait ICON will be turned off when the condition clears.

Note: the fan delay is disabled during Test Mode
Fan Speed Change Delay
Relay activation is delayed by a minimum number of seconds. The default for this value is 2 seconds and is used to
eliminate relay chatter.

ohm 2 watt resistor can be used to discharge capacitors
safely. Remove wires from capacitor and place resistor
across terminals. When checking a dual capacitor with a
capacitor analyzer or ohmmeter, both sides must be tested.
Capacitor Check with Capacitor Analyzer
The capacitor analyzer will show whether the capacitor is
“open” or “shorted.” It will tell whether the capacitor is within
its micro farads rating and it will show whether the capacitor
is operating at the proper power-factor percentage. The
instrument will automatically discharge the capacitor when
the test switch is released.
Capacitor Connections
The starting winding of a motor can be damaged by a
shorted and grounded running capacitor. This damage
usually can be avoided by proper connection of the running
capacitor terminals.
From the supply line on a typical 230 volt circuit, a 115 volt
potential exists from the “R” terminal to ground through a
possible short in the capacitor. However, from the “S” or start
terminal, a much higher potential, possibly as high as 400
volts, exists because of the counter EMF generated in the
start winding. Therefore, the possibility of capacitor failure
is much greater when the identied terminal is connected
to the “S” or start terminal. The identied terminal should
always be connected to the supply line, or “R” terminal,
never to the “S” terminal.
32
When connected properly, a shorted or grounded running
capacitor will result in a direct short to ground from the “R”
terminal and will blow the line fuse. The motor protector will
protect the main winding from excessive temperature.

HEATING ELEMENT
All heat pumps and electric heat models are equipped
with a heating element with the exception of model
YS10M10. The other “YS” and “ES” models are
equipped with a 3.3 KW element. The “YM” and “EM”
models are equipped with a 4.0 KW element. The “YL”
and “EL” models are equipped with a 5.2 KW element.
Heating Element
Sample
The heating element contains a fuse link and a heater
limit switch. The fuse link is in series with the power
supply and will open and interrupt the power when the
temperature reaches 199°F or a short circuit occurs in
the heating element. Once the fuse link separates, a
new fuse link must be installed.
NOTE: Always replace with the exact replacement.
The heater element has a high limit control. This
control is a bimetal thermostat mounted in the top of
the heating element.
Should the fan motor fail or lter become clogged,
the high limit control will open and interrupt power to
the heater before reaching an unsafe temperature
condition.
The control is designed to open at 110°F ±6°F. Test
continuity below 110°F or when it is cooled off.
TESTING THE HEATING ELEMENT
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Disconnect power to the unit before
servicing. Failure to follow this warning
could result in serious injury or death.
Testing of the elements can be made with an ohmmeter
across the terminals after the connecting wires
have been removed. A cold resistance reading of
approximately 14.5 ohms for the 3.3 KW heater, 11.9
ohms for the 4.0 KW heater and 9.15 ohms for the 5.2
KW heater should be registered.
DRAIN PAN VALVE
During the cooling mode of operation, condensate
which collects in the drain pan is picked up by the con-
denser fan blade and sprayed onto the condenser coil.
This assists in cooling the refrigerant plus evaporating
the water.
During the heating mode of operation, it is necessary
that water be removed to prevent it from freezing during
cold outside temperatures. This could cause the con-
denser fan blade to freeze in the accumulated water
and prevent it from turning.
To provide a means of draining this water, a bellows
type drain valve is installed over a drain opening in the
base pan.
This valve is temperature sensitive and will open when
the outside temperature reaches 40°F. The valve will
close gradually as the temperature rises above 40°F to
fully close at 60°F.
HEATING ELEMENT (Heat Pump Models)
The heating element for the “Y” model is energized
by an outdoor thermistor via the electronic control
board. The outdoor defrost thermistor is adjusted at
a predetermined temperature of approximately 30
degrees Fahrenheit and sensed for two consecutive
minutes, to stop the compressor and turn on the
heating element.

REFRIGERATION SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
A good understanding of the basic operation of the
refrigeration system is essential for the service technician.
Without this understanding, accurate troubleshooting of
refrigeration system problems will be more difcult and time
consuming, if not (in some cases) entirely impossible. The
refrigeration system uses four basic principles (laws) in its
operation they are as follows:
1. “Heat always ows from a warmer body to a cooler body.”
2. “Heat must be added to or removed from a substance
before a change in state can occur”
3. “Flow is always from a higher pressure area to a lower
pressure area.”
4. “The temperature at which a liquid or gas changes state
is dependent upon the pressure.”
The refrigeration cycle begins at the compressor. Starting
the compressor creates a low pressure in the suction line
which draws refrigerant gas (vapor) into the compressor.
The compressor then “compresses” this refrigerant, raising
its pressure and its (heat intensity) temperature.
The refrigerant leaves the compressor through the discharge
Line as a hot High pressure gas (vapor). The refrigerant
enters the condenser coil where it gives up some of its
heat. The condenser fan moving air across the coil’s nned
surface facilitates the transfer of heat from the refrigerant to
the relatively cooler outdoor air.
When a sufcient quantity of heat has been removed from
the refrigerant gas (vapor), the refrigerant will “condense”
(i.e. change to a liquid). Once the refrigerant has been
condensed (changed) to a liquid it is cooled even further by
the air that continues to ow across the condenser coil.
The RAC design determines at exactly what point (in the
condenser) the change of state (i.e. gas to a liquid) takes
place. In all cases, however, the refrigerant must be
totally condensed (changed) to a Liquid before leaving the
condenser coil.
The refrigerant leaves the condenser Coil through the
liquid line as a warm high pressure liquid. It next will pass
through the refrigerant drier (if so equipped). It is the function
of the drier to trap any moisture present in the system,
contaminants, and large particulate matter.
The liquid refrigerant next enters the metering device. The
metering device is a capillary tube. The purpose of the
metering device is to “meter” (i.e. control or measure) the
quantity of refrigerant entering the evaporator coil.
In the case of the capillary tube this is accomplished (by
design) through size (and length) of device, and the pressure
difference present across the device.
Since the evaporator coil is under a lower pressure (due to
the suction created by the compressor) than the liquid line,
the liquid refrigerant leaves the metering device entering the
evaporator coil. As it enters the evaporator coil, the larger
area and lower pressure allows the refrigerant to expand
and lower its temperature (heat intensity). This expansion is
often referred to as “boiling”. Since the unit’s blower is moving
indoor air across the nned surface of the evaporator coil,
the expanding refrigerant absorbs some of that heat. This
results in a lowering of the indoor air temperature, hence the
“cooling” effect.
The expansion and absorbing of heat cause the liquid
refrigerant to evaporate (i.e. change to a gas). Once the
refrigerant has been evaporated (changed to a gas), it is
heated even further by the air that continues to ow across
the evaporator coil.
The particular system design determines at exactly what
point (in the evaporator) the change of state (i.e. liquid to a
gas) takes place. In all cases, however, the refrigerant must
be totally evaporated (changed) to a gas before leaving the
evaporator coil.
The low pressure (suction) created by the compressor
causes the refrigerant to leave the evaporator through the
suction line as a cool low pressure vapor. The refrigerant
then returns to the compressor, where the cycle is repeated.

R-410A SEALED SYSTEM REPAIR CONSIDERATIONS
WARNING
Refrigeration system under high pressure
Do not puncture, heat, expose to ame or incinerate.
Only certied refrigeration technicians should
service this equipment.
R410A systems operate at higher pressures than
R22 equipment. Appropriate safe service and
handling practicces must be used.
Only use gauge sets designed for use with R410A.
Do not use standard R22 gauge sets.
The following is a list of important considerations when working with R-410A equipment
• R-410A pressure is approximately 60% higher than R-22 pressure.
• R-410A cylinders must not be allowed to exceed 125 F, they may leak or rupture.
• R-410A must never be pressurized with a mixture of air, it may become
ammable.
•
Servicing equipment and components must be specically designed for use with R-410A and
dedicated to prevent contamination.
•
Manifold sets must be equipped with gauges capable of reading 750 psig (high side) and 200
psig (low side), with a 500-psig low-side retard.
•
Gauge hoses must have a minimum 750-psig service pressure rating
• Recovery cylinders must have a minimum service pressure rating of 400 psig, (DOT 4BA400
and DOT BW400 approved cylinders).
•
POE (Polyol-Ester) lubricants must be used with R-410A equipment.
• To prevent moisture absorption and lubricant contamination, do not leave the refrigeration
system open to the atmosphere longer than 1 hour.
•
Weigh-in the refrigerant charge into the high side of the system.
• Introduce liquid refrigerant charge into the high side of the system.
• For low side pressure charging of R-410A, use a charging adaptor.
36
• Use Friedrich approved R-410A lter dryers only.
R-410A SEALED REFRIGERATION SYSTEM REPAIRS
IMPORTANT
SEALED SYSTEM REPAIRS TO COOL-ONLY MODELS REQUIRE THE INSTALLATION OF A LIQUID LINE DRIER.
EQUIPMENT REQUIRED:
1. Voltmeter
2. Ammeter
3. Ohmmeter
9. High Pressure Gauge - (0 to 750 lbs.)
10. Low Pressure Gauge - (-30 to 200 lbs.)
11. Vacuum Gauge - (0 - 1000 microns)
4. E.P.A. Approved Refrigerant Recovery System
5. Vacuum Pump (capable of 200 microns or less
vacuum.)
8. Accurate refrigerant charge measuring device such
as:
a. Balance Scales - 1/2 oz. accuracy
b. Charging Board - 1/2 oz. accuracy
WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
Unplug and/or disconnect all electrical power
to the unit before performing inspections,
maintenances or service.
Failure to do so could result in electric shock,
serious injury or death.
WARNING
HIGH PRESSURE HAZARD
Sealed Refrigeration System contains refrigerant
and oil under high pressure.
Proper safety procedures must be followed,
and proper protective clothing must be worn
when working with refrigerants.
Failure to follow these procedures could
result in serious injury or death.
12. Facilities for owing nitrogen through refrigeration tubing
during all brazing processes.
EQUIPMENT MUST BE CAPABLE OF:
1. Recovering refrigerant to EPA required levels.
2. Evacuation from both the high side and low side of the
system simultaneously.
3. Introducing refrigerant charge into high side of the
system.
4. Accurately weighing the refrigerant charge introduced
into the system.
Proper refrigerant charge is essential to proper unit operation.
Operating a unit with an improper refrigerant charge will
result in reduced performance (capacity) and/or efciency.
Accordingly, the use of proper charging methods during
servicing will insure that the unit is functioning as designed
and that its compressor will not be damaged.
Too much refrigerant (overcharge) in the system is just as bad
(if not worse) than not enough refrigerant (undercharge). They
both can be the source of certain compressor failures if they
remain uncorrected for any period of time. Quite often, other
problems (such as low air ow across evaporator, etc.) are
misdiagnosed as refrigerant charge problems. The refrigerant
circuit diagnosis chart will assist you in properly diagnosing
these systems.
An overcharged unit will at times return liquid refrigerant
(slugging) back to the suction side of the compressor eventually
causing a mechanical failure within the compressor. This
mechanical failure can manifest itself as valve failure, bearing
failure, and/or other mechanical failure. The specic type of
failure will be inuenced by the amount of liquid being returned,
and the length of time the slugging continues.
Refrigerant Charging
NOTE: Because the RAC system is a sealed system, service
process tubes will have to be installed. First install a line tap
and remove refrigerant from system. Make necessary sealed
system repairs and vacuum system. Crimp process tube
line and solder end shut. Do not leave a service valve in the
sealed system.
37
Not enough refrigerant (undercharge) on the other hand,
will cause the temperature of the suction gas to increase to
the point where it does not provide sufcient cooling for the
compressor motor. When this occurs, the motor winding
temperature will increase causing the motor to overheat
and possibly cycle open the compressor overload protector.
Continued overheating of the motor windings and/or cycling
of the overload will eventually lead to compressor motor or
overload failure.
Method Of Charging / Repairs
The acceptable method for charging the sealed system is the
Weighed in Charge Method. The weighed in charge method is
applicable to all units. It is the preferred method to use, as it is
the most accurate.
The weighed in method should always be used whenever
a charge is removed from a unit such as for a leak repair,
compressor replacement, or when there is no refrigerant
charge left in the unit. To charge by this method, requires the
following steps:
1. Install a piercing valve to remove refrigerant from the
sealedsystem. (Piercing valve must be removed from the
system before recharging.)
2. Recover Refrigerant in accordance with EPA regulations.
WARNING
BURN HAZARD
Proper safety procedures must be followed,
and proper protective clothing must be worn
when working with a torch.
Failure to follow these procedures could
result in moderate or serious injury.
3. Install a process tube to sealed system.
CAUTION
FREEZE HAZARD
Proper safety procedures must be followed,
and proper protective clothing must be worn
when working with liquid refrigerant.
Failure to follow these procedures could
result in minor to moderate injury.
4. Make necessary repairs to system.
5. Evacuate system to 200 microns or less.
6. Weigh in refrigerant with the property quantity of R-410A
refrigerant.
7. Start unit, and verify performance.
WARNING
BURN HAZARD
Proper safety procedures must be followed,
and proper protective clothing must be worn

38
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Turn off electric power before service or
installation.
WARNING
HIGH PRESSURE HAZARD
Sealed Refrigeration System contains refrigerant
and oil under high pressure.
Extreme care must be used, if it becomes
necessary to work on equipment with power
applied.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury or
death.
Undercharged Refrigerant Systems
An undercharged system will result in poor performance
(low pressures, etc.) in both the heating and cooling cycle.
Whenever you service a unit with an undercharge of
refrigerant, always suspect a leak. The leak must be
repaired before charging the unit.
To check for an undercharged system, turn the unit on,
allow the compressor to run long enough to establish
working pressures in the system (15 to 20 minutes).
During the cooling cycle you can listen carefully at the exit
of the metering device into the evaporator; an intermittent
hissing and gurgling sound indicates a low refrigerant
charge. Intermittent frosting and thawing of the evaporator
is another indication of a low charge, however, frosting
and thawing can also be caused by insufcient air over
the evaporator.
Proper safety procedures must be followed,
and proper protective clothing must be worn
when working with refrigerants.
Failure to follow these procedures could
result in serious injury or death.
A check of the amperage drawn by the compressor
motor should show a lower reading. (Check the Unit
Specication.) After the unit has run 10 to 15 minutes,
check the gauge pressures. Gauges connected to system
with an undercharge will have low head pressures and
substantially low suction pressures.
Checks for an undercharged system can be made at
the compressor. If the compressor seems quieter than
normal, it is an indication of a low refrigerant charge.
Overcharged Refrigerant Systems
Compressor amps will be near normal or higher.
Noncondensables can also cause these symptoms.
To conrm, remove some of the charge, if conditions
improve, system may be overcharged. If conditions don’t
improve, Noncondensables are indicated.
Whenever an overcharged system is indicated, always
make sure that the problem is not caused by air ow
problems. Improper air ow over the evaporator coil may
indicate some of the same symptoms as an over charged
system.
An overcharge can cause the compressor to fail, since it
would be “slugged” with liquid refrigerant.
The charge for any system is critical. When the compressor
is noisy, suspect an overcharge, when you are sure that
the air quantity over the evaporator coil is correct. Icing
of the evaporator will not be encountered because the
refrigerant will boil later if at all. Gauges connected to
system will usually have higher head pressure (depending
upon amount of over charge). Suction pressure should be
slightly higher.
39
Restricted Refrigerant System
Troubleshooting a restricted refrigerant system can be
difcult. The following procedures are the more common
problems and solutions to these problems. There are two
types of refrigerant restrictions: Partial restrictions and
complete restrictions.
A partial restriction allows some of the refrigerant to
circulate through the system.
With a complete restriction there is no circulation of
refrigerant in the system.
Restricted refrigerant systems display the same symptoms
as a “low-charge condition.”
When the unit is shut off, the gauges may equalize very
slowly.
Gauges connected to a completely restricted system
will run in a deep vacuum. When the unit is shut off, the
gauges will not equalize at all.
A quick check for either condition begins at the evaporator.
With a partial restriction, there may be gurgling sounds
at the metering device entrance to the evaporator. The
evaporator in a partial restriction could be partially frosted
or have an ice ball close to the entrance of the metering
device. Frost may continue on the suction line back to the
compressor.
Often a partial restriction of any type can be found by feel,
as there is a temperature difference from one side of the
restriction to the other.
With a complete restriction, there will be no sound at the
metering device entrance. An amperage check of the
compressor with a partial restriction may show normal
current when compared to the unit speci cation. With a
complete restriction the current drawn may be considerably
less than normal, as the compressor is running in a deep
vacuum (no load.) Much of the area of the condenser will
be relatively cool since most or all of the liquid refrigerant
will be stored there.
The following conditions are based primarily on a system
in the cooling mode.
40
HERMETIC COMPONENTS CHECK
WARNING
BURN HAZARD
Proper safety procedures must be followed,
and proper protective clothing must be worn
when working with a torch.
Failure to follow these procedures could
result in moderate or serious injury.
METERING DEVICE
Capillary Tube Systems
WARNING
CUT/SEVER HAZARD
Be careful with the sharp edges and corners.
Wear protective clothing and gloves, etc.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury.
All units are equipped with capillary tube metering devices.
Checking for restricted capillary tubes.
1. Connect pressure gauges to unit.
2. Start the unit in the cooling mode. If after a few minutesof operation the pressures are normal, the check valve
and the cooling capillary are not restricted.
CHECK VALVE
A unique two-way check valve is used on the reverse cycle
heat pumps. It is pressure operated and used to direct the
ow of refrigerant through a single lter drier and to the
proper capillary tube during either the heating or cooling
cycle.
One-way Check Valve
(Heat Pump Models)
NOTE: The slide (check) inside the valve is made of teon.
Should it become necessary to replace the check valve,
place a wet cloth around the valve to prevent overheating
during the brazing operation.
CHECK VALVE OPERATION
In the cooling mode of operation, high pressure liquid enters
the check valve forcing the slide to close the opposite port
(liquid line) to the indoor coil. Refer to refrigerant ow chart.
This directs the refrigerant through the lter drier and cooling
capillary tube to the indoor coil.
3. Switch the unit to the heating mode and observe the
gauge readings after a few minutes running time. If
the system pressure is lower than normal, the heating
capillary is restricted.
4. If the operating pressures are lower than normal in both
the heating and cooling mode, the cooling capillary is
restricted.
In the heating mode of operation, high pressure refrigerant
enters the check valve from the opposite direction, closing
the port (liquid line) to the outdoor coil. The ow path of
the refrigerant is then through the lter drier and heating
capillary to the outdoor coil.
Failure of the slide in the check valve to seat properly in
either mode of operation will cause ooding of the cooling
coil. This is due to the refrigerant bypassing the heating or
cooling capillary tube and entering the liquid line.
COOLING MODE
In the cooling mode of operation, liquid refrigerant from
condenser (liquid line) enters the cooling check valve
forcing the heating check valve shut. The liquid refrigerant
is directed into the liquid dryer after which the refrigerant
is metered through cooling capillary tubes to evaporator.
(Note: liquid refrigerant will also be directed through the
heating capillary tubes in a continuous loop during the
cooling mode).
HEATING MODE
In the heating mode of operation, liquid refrigerant from
the indoor coil enters the heating check valve forcing the
cooling check valve shut. The liquid refrigerant is directed
into the liquid dryer after which the refrigerant is metered
through the heating capillary tubes to outdoor coils. (Note:
liquid refrigerant will also be directed through the cooling
capillary tubes in a continuous loop during the heating
mode).
41
REVERSING VALVE DESCRIPTION/OPERATION
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Disconnect power to the unit before servicing.
Failure to follow this warning could result in
serious injury or death.
The Reversing Valve controls the direction of refrigerant
ow to the indoor and outdoor coils. It consists of a
pressure-operated, main valve and a pilot valve actuated
by a solenoid plunger. The solenoid is energized during the
heating cycle only. The reversing valves used in the RAC
system is a 2-position, 4-way valve.
The single tube on one side of the main valve body is the
high-pressure inlet to the valve from the compressor. The
center tube on the opposite side is connected to the low
pressure (suction) side of the system. The other two are
connected to the indoor and outdoor coils. Small capillary
tubes connect each end of the main valve cylinder to the
“A” and “B” ports of the pilot valve. A third capillary is a common
return line from these ports to the suction tube on the main
valve body. Four-way reversing valves also have a capillary
tube from the compressor discharge tube to the pilot valve.
The piston assembly in the main valve can only be shifted
by the pressure differential between the high and low sides
of the system. The pilot section of the valve opens and
closes ports for the small capillary tubes to the main valve
to cause it to shift.
NOTE: System operating pressures must be near
normal before valve can shift.
42
TESTING THE REVERSING VALVE
SOLENOID COIL
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Unplug and/or disconnect all electrical power
to the unit before performing inspections,
maintenances or service.
Failure to do so could result in electric shock,
serious injury or death.
The solenoid coil is an electromagnetic type coil mounted
on the reversing valve and is energized during the
operation of the compressor in the heating cycle.
1. Turn off high voltage electrical power to unit.
2. Unplug line voltage lead from reversing valve coil.
3. Check for electrical continuity through the coil. If you
do not have continuity replace the coil.
4. Check from each lead of coil to the copper liquid line
as it leaves the unit or the ground lug. There should
be no continuity between either of the coil leads
and ground; if there is, coil is grounded and must be
replaced.
5. If coil tests okay, reconnect the electrical leads.
6. Make sure coil has been assembled correctly.
NOTE: Do not start unit with solenoid coil removed from
valve, or do not remove coil after unit is in operation. This
will cause the coil to burn out.
Should the valve fail to shift from coooling to heating,
block the air ow through the outdoor coil and allow the
discharge pressure to build in the system. Then switch
the system from heating to cooling.
If the valve is stuck in the heating position, block the air
ow through the indoor coil and allow discharge pressure
to build in the system. Then switch the system from
heating to cooling.
Should the valve fail to shift in either position after
increasing the discharge pressure, replace the valve.
Dented or damaged valve body or capillary tubes can
prevent the main slide in the valve body from shifting.
If you determing this is the problem, replace the reversing
valve.
After all of the previous inspections and checks have
been made and determined correct, then perform the
“Touch Test” on the reversing valve.
CHECKING THE REVERSING VALVE
NOTE: You must have normal operating pressures before
the reversing valve can shift.
WARNING
HIGH PRESSURE HAZARD
Sealed Refrigeration System contains refrigerant
and oil under high pressure.
Proper safety procedures must be followed,
and proper protective clothing must be worn
when working with refrigerants.
Failure to follow these procedures could
result in serious injury or death.
Check the operation of the valve by starting the system
and switching the operation from “Cooling” to “Heating”
and then back to “Cooling”. Do not hammer on valve.
Occasionally, the reversing valve may stick in the heating
or cooling position or in the mid-position.
When sluggish or stuck in the mid-position, part of the
discharge gas from the compressor is directed back to the
suction side, resulting in excessively high suction pressure.

Touch Test in Heating/Cooling Cycle
WARNING
BURN HAZARD
Certain unit components operate at
temperatures hot enough to cause burns.
Proper safety procedures must be followed,
and proper protective clothing must be
worn.
The only definite indications that the slide is in the midposition is if all three tubes on the suction side of the valve
are hot after a few minutes of running time.
NOTE: A condition other than those illustrated above, and
on Page 44, indicate that the reversing valve is not shifting
properly. Both tubes shown as hot or cool must be the same
corresponding temperature.
Failure to follow these procedures could
result in minor to moderate injury.
Procedure For Changing Reversing Valve
WARNING
HIGH PRESSURE HAZARD

8. Pressurize sealed system with a combination of R-410A
and nitrogen and check for leaks, using a suitable leak
detector. Recover refrigerant per EPA guidelines.
9. Once the sealed system is leak free, install solenoid coil
on new valve and charge the sealed system by weighing in the proper amount and type of refrigerant as shown
on rating plate. Crimp the process tubes and solder the
ends shut. Do not leave Schrader or piercing valves in
the sealed system.
NOTE: When brazing a reversing valve into the system, it is
of extreme importance that the temperature of the valve does
not exceed 250
Wrap the reversing valve with a large rag saturated with
water. “Re-wet” the rag and thoroughly cool the valve after
each brazing operation of the four joints involved.

NOTICE
FIRE HAZARD
The use of a torch requires extreme care and proper
judgment. Follow all safety recommended precautions and
protect surrounding areas with re proof materials. Have
a re extinguisher readily available. Failure to follow this
notice could result in moderate to serious property damage.
1. Install Process Tubes. Recover refrigerant from sealed
system. PROPER HANDLING OF RECOVERED
REFRIGERANT ACCORDING TO EPA REGULATIONS
IS REQUIRED.
2. Remove solenoid coil from reversing valve. If coil is to
be reused, protect from heat while changing valve.
3. Unbraze all lines from reversing valve.
4. Clean all excess braze from all tubing so that they will
slip into ttings on new valve.
5. Remove solenoid coil from new valve.
44
The wet rag around the reversing valve will eliminate
conduction of heat to the valve body when brazing the line
connection.
COMPRESSOR CHECKS
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Turn off electric power before service or
installation. Extreme care must be used, if it
becomes necessary to work on equipment with
power applied.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury or
death.
Locked Rotor Voltage (L.R.V.) Test
Locked rotor voltage (L.R.V.) is the actual voltage available
at the compressor under a stalled condition.
Single Phase Connections
Disconnect power from unit. Using a voltmeter, attach one
lead of the meter to the run “R” terminal on the compressor
and the other lead to the common “C” terminal of the compressor. Restore power to unit.
Determine L.R.V.
Start the compressor with the volt meter attached; then stop
the unit. Attempt to restart the compressor within a couple
of seconds and immediately read the voltage on the meter.
The compressor under these conditions will not start and will
usually kick out on overload within a few seconds since the
pressures in the system will not have had time to equalize.
Voltage should be at or above minimum voltage of 197 VAC,
as specied on the rating plate. If less than minimum, check
for cause of inadequate power supply; i.e., incorrect wire
size, loose electrical connections, etc.
Amperage (L.R.A.) Test
The running amperage of the compressor is the most
important of these readings. A running amperage higher
than that indicated in the performance data indicates that a
problem exists mechanically or electrically.
Single Phase Running and L.R.A. Test
NOTE: Consult the specication and performance section
for running amperage. The L.R.A. can also be found on the
rating plate.
Select the proper amperage scale and clamp the meter
probe around the wire to the “C” terminal of the compressor.
Turn on the unit and read the running amperage on the
meter. If the compressor does not start, the reading will
indicate the locked rotor amperage (L.R.A.).
Overloads
The compressor is equipped with either an external or
internal overload which senses both motor amperage
and winding temperature. High motor temperature or
amperage heats the overload causing it to open, breaking
the common circuit within the compressor.
Heat generated within the compressor shell, usually due
to recycling of the motor, is slow to dissipate. It may take
anywhere from a few minutes to several hours for the
overload to reset.
Checking the Overloads
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Turn off electric power before service or
installation. Extreme care must be used, if it
becomes necessary to work on equipment
with power applied.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury or
death.
WARNING
BURN HAZARD
Certain unit components operate at
temperatures hot enough to cause burns.
Proper safety procedures must be followed,
and proper protective clothing must be
worn.
Failure to follow this warning could result
in moderate to serious injury.
External Overloads
With power off, remove the leads from compressor
terminals. If the compressor is hot, allow the overload
to cool before starting check. Using an ohmmeter, test
continuity across the terminals of the external overload.
If you do not have continuity; this indicates that the
overload is open and must be replaced.
Interrnal Overloads
Some model compressors are equipped with an internal
overload. The overload is embedded in the motor
windings to sense the winding temperature and/or current
draw. The overload is connected in series with the
common motor terminal.
Should the internal temperature and/or current draw
become excessive, the contacts in the overload will
open, turning off the compressor. The overload will
automatically reset, but may require several hours before
the heat is dissipated.
Checking the Internal Overload
1. With no power to unit, remove the leads from the
compressor terminals.
2. Using an ohmmeter, test continuity between terminals
C-S and C-R. If no continuity, the compressor overload is
open and the compressor must be replaced.

from terminals common to run (“C” to “R”).
Add values “C” to “S” and “C” to “R” together and
Resistance “S” to “R” should equal the total of “C” to “S”
and “C” to “R.”
In a single phase PSC compressor motor, the highest
common connections (“S” to “C”). The lowest resistance
is from the run to common. (“C” to “R”) Before replacing a
compressor, check to be sure it is defective.
GROUND TEST
Use an ohmmeter set on its highest scale. Touch one
lead to the compressor body (clean point of contact as
a good connection is a must) and the other probe in turn
to each compressor terminal. If a reading is obtained the
compressor is grounded and must be replaced.
Check the complete electrical system to the compressor
and compressor internal electrical system, check to be
certain that compressor is not out on internal overload.
Many compressor failures are caused by the following
conditions:
1. Improper air flow over the evaporator.
2. Overcharged refrigerant system causing liquid to be
returned to the compressor.
3. Restricted refrigerant system.
4. Lack of lubrication.

5. Liquid refrigerant returning to compressor causing oil
to be washed out of bearings.
6. Noncondensables such as air and moisture in
the system. Moisture is extremely destructive to a
refrigerant system.
7. Capacitor (see page 34).
CHECKING COMPRESSOR EFFICIENCY
The reason for compressor inefficiency is normally due
to broken or damaged suction and/or discharge valves,
reducing the ability of the compressor to pump refrigerant
gas.
WARNING
HIGH PRESSURE HAZARD
Sealed Refrigeration System contains refrigerant
and oil under high pressure.
Proper safety procedures must be followed,
and proper protective clothing must be worn
when working with refrigerants.
Failure to follow these procedures could
result in serious injury or death.
Complete evaluation of the system must be made
whenever you suspect the compressor is defective. If
the compressor has been operating for sometime, a
careful examination must be made to determine why the
compressor failed.
46
This condition can be checked as follows:
1. Install a piercing valve on the suction and discharge or
liquid process tube.
2. Attach gauges to the high and low sides of the system.
3. Start the system and run a “cooling or heating perfor
mance test.” If test shows:
A. Below normal high side pressure
B. Above normal low side pressure
C. Low temperature difference across coil
The compressor valves are faulty - replace the
compressor.

After Maintenance/Repair
Start-up Checklist and Notes
u Inspect and ensure that all components and accessories have been
installed properly and that they have not been damaged during the
installation progress.
u
Check the condensate water drain(s) to ensure that they are adequate
for the removal of condensate water, and that they meet the approval
of the end user.
u
Ensure that all installation instructions concerning clearances around
the unit have been adhered to. Check to ensure that the unit air lter,
indoor coil, and outdoor coil are free from any obstructions.
u Ensure that the circuit breaker(s) or fuse(s) and supply circuit wire
size have been sized correctly. If the unit was supplied with a power
supply cord, insure that it is stored properly.
u
Ensure that the entire installation is in compliance with all applicable
national and local codes and ordinances having jurisdiction.
u
Secure components and accessories, such as a decorative front
cover.
u
Start the unit and check for proper operation of all components in
each mode of operation.
u
Instruct the owner or operator of the units operation, and the
manufacturer's Routine Maintenance.
Heat pumps operate differently
If your unit is a "Y", or heat pump model, there are some things that you
will want to be aware of. Some functions of a heat pump differ from your
unit when it is used for heating:
1. It is normal for ice to form on the outdoor coil of the heat pump.
Moisture in the outside air, passing over the coil when very cold,
will form ice.
2. If the outdoor temperature drops below 37° F (3° C), your heat
pump will automatically turn on the electric resistance heat. When
the temperature rises to 40° F (4° C), the compressor will resume
the heat pump operation. If your unit is a 115 volt model (YS10),
it is designed for use in warmer climates and does not have an
electrical heat feature, and will not provide adequate heat below
37° F (2.8° C).
NOTE:
A log for recording the dates of maintenance and/or service is
recommended.
u
Present the owner or operator of the equipment with the name,
address and telephone number of the Authorized Friedrich Warranty
Service Company in the area for future reference if necessary.
NOTE: This is a warm weather appliance
The air conditioner is designed to cool in warm weather when the outside
temperature is above 60° F (15.6° C) and below 115° F (46.1° C), so it won't
cool a room if it is already cool outside. If you want to cool a room in the
spring or fall, select the FAN ONLY
air control to Fresh Air. This will bring in a supply of cooler outside air.
mode and set the Fresh Air/Exhaust
Condensation is normal
Air conditioners actually pump the heat and humidity from your room to the
outside. Humidity becomes water, and your air conditioner will use most
of the water to keep the outside coil cool. If there is excessive humidity,
there may be excess water that will drip outside. This is normal operation.
Frosting
This usually occurs because of insufcient airow across the coils, a dirty
lter, cool damp weather, or all of these. Set the SYSTEM mode to FAN

and the frost will disappear. Setting the thermostat a little warmer
Noises
All air conditioners make some noise. Friedrich units are designed to
operate as quietly as possible. An air conditioner mounted in a wall is
quieter than one mounted in a window. It is important to ensure that the
chassis seal gasket (Item 14) is properly installed (refer to installation
instructions).

This may be normal for higher
Do not try to operate your air conditioner in the
cooling mode when the outside temperature
is below 60° F (16° C). The unit will not cool
properly, and the unit may be damaged.
Since the fan does not circulate the room
air continuously at this setting, the room air
does not mix as well and hot (or cold) spots
may result. Using the continuous fan setting
is recommended to obtain optimum comfort
levels.
Check the cooling capacity of your unit to
ensure it is properly sized for the room in which
it is installed. Room air conditioners are not
designed to cool multiple rooms.
Check the heating capacity of your unit. Air
conditioners are sized to meet the cooling load,
and heater size is then selected to meet the
heating load. In extreme northern climates,
room air conditioners may not be able to be
used as a primary source of heat.
If there are heat producing appliances in use
in the room, or if the room is heavily occupied,
the unit will need to run longer to remove the
additional heat.
Be sure to use exhaust vent fans while cooking
or bathing and, if possible, try not to use heat
producing appliances during the hottest part of
the day.
