IMPORTANT
Use this table to perform maintenance checks; it is not a procedure for charging the
system. Minor variations in these pressures may be due to differences in installations.
Significant deviations could mean that the system is not properly charged or that a
problem exists with some component in the system.

System Operation
TWO−STAGE COMPRESSOR
The two−stage scroll compressor operates much like the
standard scroll compressor. The two−stage compressor
steps between low capacity and high capacity as required
to meet cooling demand. The steps occur when gas is
bypassed through a vent port in the first suction pocket.
This bypassing of gas allows the compressor to operate at
low capacity if thermostat demand allows, creating a more
cost effective and efficient compressor.
Full capacity is achieved by blocking the vent port with a
slider ring. The slider ring (vent port cover) is controlled by
a 24VDC internal solenoid in the open position allowing low
capacity. When energized the internal solenoid closes the
slider ring, blocking the vent port and bringing the
compressor to full capacity. Stepping can occur during a
single thermostat demand as the motor runs continuously
while the compressor steps from low to full capacity.
