START-UP

General — The 50BJ,BK. units are designed for use
in Modu-Vac Variable Air Volume Systems using

Carrier 37A Moduline® and 35B Modubox Air

Terminals. For air terminal installation and adjust­
ment, refer to 37 A or 35B literature as required.

CAPACITY CONTROL — The units are equipped
with electrie unloaders on the lead compressor

(Fig. 17) and hot gas bypass on the no. 1 refrigerant
system. (Size 016 units have only one refrigerant
system.)

Unit capacity is monitored and controlled by a

Honeywell W7100 microprocessor (Fig. 20). This

controller provides the number of capacity control
steps as shown in Table 8.

TIMER CONTROL — Carrier strongly recom­
mends use of an accessory timer control panel with

the 50BJ,BK units. Installation and adjustment of
this device (Fig. 21) is covered in separate Installa­
tion, Start-Up and Service Instructions included in

the accessory package.

If accessory timer is not used, install field-installed

manual switch between TB3 terminals [~T~| and

in the variable volume eontrol box for the 016-034
units. Switeh is factory-installed on the 044-064
units.

MOISTURE INDICATORS are located ahead of

thermal expansion valves. They must be full of
liquid

to

properly

indicate

moisture

content.

Operate system for 30 minutes before determining
moisture content.

SERVICE VALVES (50BK) — Valves use teflon
seat washers to ensure position seal with minimum
stem torque (10 Ib-ft max). Do not overtighten valve
stem. Use wet rag on valve when soldering. If refrig­

erant has been lost, midseat valve. Always replace
stem cap.

Prior to Unit Start

1. Clean and inspect the unit.

2.

Open (backseat) compressor service valves and

liquid line shutoff valves. Replace and tighten
valve caps to prevent leakage.

3.

On 50BK (air-cooled condenser) units, turn on

indoor fan motor circuit breaker. Check that
compressor crankease heaters are energized and
crankcase oil level is half full.

4.

Leave crankcase heaters energized for 24 hours

to ensure safe oil/ refrigerant mixture in crank­
cases for unit start-up.

Control Sequence Checkout

1.

Perform all applicable steps described above

under Prior to Unit Start.

2. Turn on unit main power supply.

^3. Set the control band knob on microprocessor

(Fig. 20) at 2.

4. Turn on indoor fan motor circuit breaker.

5.

If unit is equipped with accessory timer control

panel and 7-day clock is not calling for cooling,
turn on unit by overriding clock with manual
bypass

switch

(see

Start-Up

General

section

entitled, TIMER CONTROL).

6. Close compressor circuit breakers.

7.

Check for cooling by turning microprocessor
