1.1 FEATURES AND BENEFITS

The PTAC has many features, some of which are different than those found on conventional PTAC units. The servicer must be familiar with these features in order to properly service the unit.

• IIR (Infinite Impulse Response) The IIR function senses the temperature several times per second and makes micro-adjustments several times per

• Compressor Restart Delay

This feature extends the overall life of compressor by preventing the short-cycling of the air-conditioner. When the compressor restarts, LG PTAC is designed to give a minimum of three minutes to have a time of equalizing the refrigerant pressures for optimizing cycling.

• Fan-Only Setting - High/Low

The fan can run at HIGH or LOW speed without COOLING or HEATING to provide air circulation and ventilation.

• Indoor Fan Speed Selections - High/Low

The fan can run at HIGH or LOW speed for either COOLING or HEATING.

• Two Fan motors

The unit has two fan motors to provide quiet operation and maximum efficiency.

• LED Diagnostics

All units have this feature indicating the problem when the unit is not operating properly with easy-to-read diagnostics. For example, 1 blink every 2 seconds indicates compressor failure.

• Indoor Filters

The unit uses two indoor filters which slide in and cut easily. The filters may be cleaned by washing and brushing without removing the front grille.

• Rotary Compressor

The unit uses a rotary compressor for quiet, reliable operation and long life.

• 2 Position Discharge Grille

The discharge grille can provide air flows upward at an angle of 40 off vertical or 15 degree off vertical. The angle is changed by removing the front grille and 4 screws that fasten the discharge grille to the front grille and rotating the louvers to an alternate position.

• Indoor Room Freeze Protection

When the unit senses the room temperature falls to less than 40° F the unit activates the fan motor and either the electric resistance heater or the hydronic heater to prevent pipes or fixtures from freezing. This also overrides front desk control of the unit mounted or wall mounted controls.

• Door Switch/Occupancy Sensor

The unit is capable of accommodating a field installed door switch and occupancy sensor to operate the energy management feature. For additional information, refer to the unit operation section.

• Compressor Overload Protection

This feature prevents the damage of the compressor by sensing the indoor tube temperature in heating. If the indoor temperature is over 130˚ F, the outdoor fan will be switched off and back on when the temperature drops below 120˚ F.

• Outdoor Air Temperature Switchover

This will effectively change the unit from heat pump mode to total electric resistance heat.

• Temperature limits

The unit is programmed to provide both heating and cooling temperature limits by dip switches on control panel from 50˚ F to 90˚ F. Temperature limits help to prevent overheating and overcooling and reduce energy costs.

• Condensate Drain Valve

The unit has a condensate drain valve to prevent water from collecting or freezing in the basepan.

• Quick Heater Recovery

The unit is designed to operate the electric heater to warm the room to the temperature set point as soon as heat pump cycle is on in heating. This feature has an advantage of reducing the time to reach the set point and improving the temperature increase for better comfort.

• Reverse Cycle Defrosting - (PTHP only)

The unit will activate the reverse cycle defrost when the outdoor coil temperature has remained at a cold temperature to form the ice on the coil.This ice will reduce airflow though the coil and will also reduce the efficiency of unit. The LG PTHP will employ an active reverse cycle defrost function to melt the ice off the outdoor coil for insuring room comfort conditions and savings from extended operation.

• High Temperature Heat Pump Operation Protection

The compressor will be switched off to prevent damage when the heat pump is operated in high outdoor temperatures.

• Remote Thermostat Control

Each unit is built to be operated from any standard 4 or 5 wire remote-mounted thermostat, if desired. The unit has a built-in low voltage power source which can accommodate a large variety of thermostat choices-manual, auto changeover, or programmable. A remote thermostat can also be added to any installed unit.

• Zone Sensor

Occupants enjoy ultimate comfort with consistent climate control. Attach an optional, inexpensive remote Zone Sensor to exactly match the functions of the PTAC without disabling any features.

• High Pressure limit

The compressor will be switched off to prevent damage by sensing high pressure [41.8 kgf/cm

— Replacement of the refrigeration cycle.

1. When replacing the refrigeration cycle, be sure to discharge the refrigerant system using a refrigerant recovery system. If there is no valve to attach the recovery system, install one (such as a WATCO A-1) before venting the refrigerant. 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 16 A.

2) Start the vacuum pump, slowly open manifold

valves A and B with two full turns counterclockwise and leave the valves closed. 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 vacuum are obtained. Close valves A and B, and observe the 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 16 B. 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 16B. 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; The Pressure of

optimum condition is as below.(Cooling)

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, just crack valves A and B 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.
