Avoid repeated and prolonged skin contact.
Do not use near open flame or excessive heat.Flash point of solvent is 100
degrees F (38 degrees C).
Avoid bodily contact with liquid refrigerant and avoid inhaling refrigerant gas.
Be especially careful that Refrigerant 22 does not come in contact with eyes.
In case of refrigerant leaks, ventilate area immediately.
Do not use compressed air for cleaning purposes except where reduced to less
than 30 psi and then only with effective chip guarding and personal protective
equipment.
Purge system with dry nitrogen prior to soldering.
Refrigerant heated to 1200
degrees F creates phosgene gas.
Be careful when working with high voltage. Failure
to comply can result in
serious injury or death.
The air conditioner must be grounded prior to operation. Connect one end of a
number 6AWG (American Wire Gage) copper wire ground lead to an underground
metallic water piping system or a driven metal ground rod or buried metal plate.
Connect the other end of the ground lead to the grounding bolt on the upper left
front corner of the unit.
Refrigerant-22 is contained in the refrigerant system under high pressure.
Extreme care must be exercised to prevent refrigerant from coming in contact
with exposed skin and eyes.
Provide adequate ventilation when discharging the
system in a confined area.
Polyurethane foam insulation breaks down to form toxic gases when heated to
brazing temperature.
All refrigerant gas must be discharged from system before
performing any removal procedures of refrigerant components.
Avoid contact with refrigerant acid.
Burns could result from contact with
refrigerant.
Acetone and methylethyl ketone are flammable and their vapors are explosive.
Prolonged or repeated inhalation of fumes on contact with the skin can be toxic.
Use in a well ventilated area, wear gloves and keep away from sparks or flame.
Scrape or pull off as much of the damaged insulation as possible. Soften the
remaining insulation and adhesive with acetone on MEK.

TECHNICAL PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
The air conditioner is a base mounted, self-contained, electric motor driven
unit that provides
36,000 BTU/HR for cooling.
Once started, it operates
automatically due to the relationship of the components, controls and
instruments.

the bottom right side of the unit to remove condensate water.
Extend piping or hose to deposit water in a suitable location or
container. Drain system must have
"U" trap on exterior drain
line.
e.
Be sure the main rotary switch on the control box is in the OFF
position, and connect a 208 volt, 60 cycle, 3 phase power source
to the main power connector at the lower right front corner of
the unit.
WARNING
The air conditioner must be grounded prior to
operation.Connect one end of a
number 6AWG (American Wire Gage) copper wire ground lead to an underground
metallic water piping system or a driven metal ground rod or buried metal
plate. Connect the other end of the ground lead to the grounding bolt on the
upper left front corner of the unit.
f.
The new unit should not require servicing, as it is shipped
completely assembled and ready to operate when power is
applied.
