Refrigerant Charging
NOTE: Do not vent or depressurize unit refrigerant to
atmosphere. Remove and reclaim refrigerant following
accepted practices.
Air Coil Fan Motor Removal
Disconnect motor power wires from motor terminals before
motor is removed from unit.
1. Shut off unit main power supply.
2. Loosen bolts on mounting bracket so that fan belt can be
removed.
3. Loosen and remove the 2 motor mounting bracket bolts
on left side of bracket.
4. Slide motor/bracket assembly to extreme right and lift out
through space between fan scroll and side frame. Rest
motor on a high platform such as a step ladder. Do not
allow motor to hang by its power wires.
TROUBLESHOOTING
(Fig. 31 and 32, and Table 30)
When troubleshooting problems with a WSHP, consider the
following.
Thermistor — A thermistor may be required for single-
phase units where starting the unit is a problem due to low
voltage. See Fig. 31 for thermistor nominal resistance.
Control Sensors — The control system employs 2 nom-
inal 10,000 ohm thermistors (FP1 and FP2) that are used for
freeze protection. Be sure FP1 is located in the discharge fluid
and FP2 is located in the air discharge. See Fig. 32.
To prevent personal injury, wear safety glasses and gloves
when handling refrigerant. Do not overcharge system —
this can cause compressor flooding.
Before attempting to remove fan motors or motor mounts,
place a piece of plywood over evaporator coils to prevent
coil damage.
