— Replacement of the refrigerant.

1. When replacing the refrigerant, be sure to Discharge the refrigerant system using a Freon

TM

recovery System. If there is no valve to attach the recovery system, install one (such as a WATCO A-1) before venting the FreonTM. Leave the valve in place after servicing the system.

2. After discharging the unit completely, remove the desired component, and unbraze the pinch-off tubes.

3. Solder service valves into the pinch-off tube ports, leaving the valves open.

4. Solder the pinch-off tubes with Service valves.

5. Evacuate as follows.

1) Connect the vacuum pump, as illustrated figure

18A.

2) Start the vacuum pump, slowly open manifold

valves A and B with two full turns counterclockwise and leave the valves open. The vacuum pump is now pulling through valves A and B up to valve C by means of the manifold

and entire system.

3) Operate the vacuum pump for 20 to 30 minutes,

until 600 microns of vaccum is obtained. Close valves A and B, and observe vacuum gauge for a few minutes. A rise in pressure would indicate a possible leak or moisture remaining in the system. With valves A and B closed, stop

the vacuum pump.

4) Remove the hose from the vacuum pump and

place it on the charging cylinder. See figure 18B. Open valve C. Discharge the line at the manifold connection.

5) The system is now ready for final charging.

6. Recharge as follows :

1) Refrigeration cycle systems are charged from the High-side. If the total charge cannot be put in the High-side, the balance will be put in the suction line through the access valve which you installed as the system was opened.

2) Connect the charging cylinder as shown in figure 18B. With valve C open, discharge the hose at the manifold connection.

3) Open valve A and allow the proper charge to enter the system. Valve B is still closed.

4) If more charge is required, the high-side will not take it. Close valve A.

5) With the unit running, open valve B and add the balance of the charge.

a. Do not add the liquid refrigerant to the Low-

side.

b. Watch the Low-side gauge; allow pressure to

rise to 30 lbs. c. Turn off valve B and allow pressure to drop. d. Repeat steps b. and c. until the balance of the

charge is in the system.

6) When satisfied the unit is operating correctly, use the pinch-off tool with the unit still running and clamp on to the pinch-off tube. Using a tube cutter, cut the pinch-off tube about 2 inches from the pinch-off tool. Use sil-fos solder and solder pinch-off tube closed. Turn off the unit, allow it to set for a while, and then test the leakage of the pinch-off connection.

NOTES

If high vacuum equipment is used, adjust valves A and B so they are opened only slightly for a few minutes, then open slowly with the two full turns counterclockwise. This will keep oil from foaming and being drawn into the vacuum pump.

2.4.3 CAPILLARY TUBE

1. Remove the cabinet. (Refer to section 2.1.2)

2. After discharging the refrigerant completely, unbraze the interconnecting tube at the capillary tube.(See caution above)

3. Remove the capillary tube.

4. Re-install the components by referring to notes.

3. INSTALLATION

3.1 HOW TO INSTALL THE UNIT

1. To avoid vibration and noise, make sure the unit is installed securely and firmly.

2. Install the unit where the sunlight does not shine directly on the unit. If the unit receives direct sunlight, build an awning to shade the cabinet.

3. There should be no obstacle, like a fence, within 20" which might restrict heat radiation from the condenser.

4. To prevent reducing performance, install the unit so that louvers of the cabinet are not blocked.

5. Install the unit a little obliquely outward not to leak the condensed water into the room (about 1/4").

6. Install the unit with its bottom portion 30~60" above the floor level.

7. Stuff the foam between the top of the unit and the wall to prevent air and insects from getting into the room.

8. The power cord must be connected to an independent circuit. The green wire must be grounded.

9. Connect the drain tube to the base pan hole in the rear side if you need to drain (consult a dealer). Plastic hose or equivalent may be connected to the drain tube.

3.2 CHECKING INSTALLATION

The setting conditions must be checked prior to initial starting.

The items mentioned below are especially important checking points when the installation is finished.

1. Grounding wire (Green or Green and Yellow) is provided in the power cord. The green wire must be grounded.

2. Connect to a single-outlet 15A circuit.

3. To avoid vibration or noise, make sure the air conditioner is installed securely.

4 Avoid placing furniture or draperies in front of the

air inlet and outlet.

3.3. HOW TO DRAIN (When using drain pipe)

The air conditioner must be installed horizontally or tilted slightly to the outside for proper water drainage.

On exceptionally hot and humid days the air conditioner may overflow condensed water.

COMPLAINT CAUSE REMEDY

Check voltage at outlet. Correct if none.

Check voltage to rotary switch. If none, check power supply cord. Replace cord if circuit is open.

Check switch continuity. Refer to wiring diagram for terminal identification. Replace switch if defective.

Connect wire. Refer to wiring diagram for terminal identification. Repair or replace loose terminal.

Test capacitor. Replace if not within ±10% of manufacturer's rating. Replace if shorted, open, or damaged.

Fan blade hitting shroud or blower wheel hitting scroll. Realign assembly.

Units using slinger ring for condenser fan must have

1

/4to 5/16inch clearance to the base. If it hits the base, shim up the bottom of the fan motor with mounting screw(s).

Check fan motor bearings; if motor shaft will not rotate, replace the motor.

Check voltage. If not within limits, call an electrician.

Test capacitor. Check bearings. Does the fan blade rotate freely? If not, replace fan motor.

Pay attention to any change from high speed to low speed. If the speed does not change, replace the motor.

If cracked, out of balance, or partially missing, replace it.

Tighten it.

If knocking sounds continue when running or loose, replace the motor. If the motor hums or noise appears to be internal while running, replace motor.

Check voltage. If not within limits, call an electrician.

Check the wire connections, if loose, repair or replace the terminal. If wires are off, refer to wiring diagram for identification, and replace. Check wire locations. If not per wiring diagram, correct.

Check for continuity, refer to the wiring diagram for terminal identification. Replace the switch if circuit is open.

COMPLAINT CAUSE REMEDY

Check the position of knob If not at the coldest setting, advance the knob to this setting and restart unit. Check continuity of the thermostat. Replace thermostat if circuit is open.

Check the capacitor. Replace if not within ±10% of manufacturers rating. Replace if shorted, open, or damaged.

Check the compressor for open circuit or ground. If open or grounded, replace the compressor.

Check the compressor overload, if externally mounted. Replace if open. (If the compressor temperature is high, remove the overload, cool it, and retest.)

Check the voltage. If not within limits, call an electrician.

Check overload, if externally mounted. Replace if open. (If the compressor temperature is high, remove the overload, cool, and retest.)

If not running, determine the cause. Replace if required.

Remove the cabinet. inspect the interior surface of the condenser; if restricted, clean carefully with a vacuum cleaner (do not damage fins) or brush. Clean the interior base before reassembling.

If condenser fins are closed over a large area on the coil surface, head pressures will increase, causing the compressor to overload. Straighten the fins or replace the coil.

Test capacitor.

Check the terminals. If loose, repair or replace.

Check the system for a restriction.

If restricted, clean or replace.

Close if open.

Determine if the unit is properly sized for the area to be cooled.

Check the set screw or clamp. If loose or missing, correct. If the blower or fan is hitting air guide, rearrange the air handling parts.

Remove the cabinet carefully and rearrange tubing not to contact cabinet, compressor, shroud, and barrier.
