Should a freezestat open three times within two hours
of operation, the UCB will lock-out the associated com-
pressor and flash a code (Table 24). If the other com-
pressor is inactive, the condenser fans will be de-
energized.
LOW AMBIENT COOLING
To determine when to operate in low ambient mode,
the UCB has a pair of terminals connected to a temper-
ature-activated switch set at 30ºF. When the low ambi-
ent switch is closed and the thermostat is calling for
cooling, the UCB will operate in the low ambient mode.
Low ambient mode operates the compressors in this
manner: 10 minutes on, 5 minutes off. The indoor
blower is operated throughout the cycle. The 5-minute
off period is necessary to defrost the indoor coil.
Low ambient mode always begins with compressor
operation. Compressor minimum run time may extend
the minutes of compressor operation. The defrost cycle
will begin immediately following the elapse of the mini-
mum run time.
When operating in low ambient mode, the UCB will not
lockout the compressors due to a freezestat trip. How-
ever, a freezestat trip will de-energize the associated
compressor. If the call for cooling is still present at the
end of the ASCD and the freezestat has closed, the
unit will resume operation.
SAFETY CONTROLS
The unit control board monitors the following inputs for
each cooling system:
1. A suction line freezestat to protect against low
evaporator temperatures due to a low airflow or a
low return air temperature, (opens at 26 ± 5 °F and
resets at 38 ± 5°F).
2. A high-pressure switch to protect against exces-
sive discharge pressures due to a blocked con-
denser coil or a condenser motor failure, (opens at
380 ± 10 psig and resets at 300 ± 10 psig).
3. A low-pressure switch to protect against loss of
refrigerant charge, (opens at 22 ± 5 psig and resets
at 45 ± 5 psig).
The above pressure switches are hard-soldered to the
unit. The refrigeration systems are independently mon-
itored and controlled. On any fault, only the associated
system will be affected by any safety/preventive action.
The other refrigerant system will continue in operation
unless it is affected by the fault as well.
The unit control board monitors the temperature limit
switch of electric heat units and the temperature limit
switch and the gas valve of gas furnace units.
COMPRESSOR PROTECTION
The compressors also have inherent (internal) protec-
tion. If there is an abnormal temperature rise in a com-
pressor, the protector will open to shut down the
compressor. The UCB incorporates features to mini-
mize compressor wear and damage. An anti-short
cycle delay (ASCD) is utilized to prevent operation of a
compressor too soon after its previous run. Addition-
ally, a minimum run time is imposed any time a com-
pressor is energized.
The ASCD is initiated on unit start-up and on any com-
pressor reset or lock-out.
FLASH CODES
The UCB will initiate a flash code associated with
errors within the system. Refer to UNIT CONTROL
BOARD FLASH CODES Table 24.
RESET
Remove the call for cooling, by raising thermostat set-
ting higher than the conditioned space temperature.
This resets any pressure or freezestat flash codes.
ELECTRIC HEATING SEQUENCE OF OPERATIONS
The following sequence describes the operation of the
electric heat section.
Single-stage heating (applies only to 18 KW heater, all
other heaters MUST use a two-stage thermostat):
a. Upon a call for heat by the thermostat, the heater
contactor (6M) will be energized. After completing
the specified fan on delay for heating, the UCB will
energize the blower motor.
b. The thermostat will cycle the electric heat to satisfy
the heating requirements of the conditioned space.
Two-stage heating (applies to all heaters except 18
KW):
a. Upon a call for first-stage heat by the thermostat, the
heater contactor (6M) (6M & 7M on 72 KW, 240V)
will be energized. After completing the specified fan
