*Permissible limits of the voltage range at which unit will operate
satisfactorily.
NOTES:
1. Control circuit is 24 v on all units and requires an external power
source.
2. All motors and compressors contain internal overload protection.
3. In compliance with NEC (U.S.A. Standard) requirements for mul-
timotor and combination load equipment (refer to NEC Articles
430 and 440), the overcurrent protective device for the unit shall
be fuse or HACR breaker.
4. Motor RLA values are established in accordance with UL (Under-
writers’ Laboratories) Standard 465 (U.S.A. Standard).
5. 38HDF,HDR018-030 units are only available in single-phase
voltage.
6. Unbalanced 3-Phase Supply Voltage
Never operate a motor where a phase imbalance in supply volt-
age is greater than 2%. Use the following formula to determine
the percentage of voltage imbalance:
EXAMPLE: Supply voltage is 460-3-60.
AB = 452 v
BC = 464 v
AC = 455 v
Determine maximum deviation from average voltage:
(AB) 457 – 452 = 5 v
(BC) 464 – 457 = 7 v
(AC) 457 – 455 = 2 v
Maximum deviation is 7 v.
Determine percentage of voltage imbalance:
This amount of phase imbalance is satisfactory as it is below the
maximum allowable of 2%
