Filter Drier —

Replace whenever refrigerant system is ex-

posed to atmosphere.

Protective Devices

COMPRESSOR PROTECTION
Overcurrent — Each compressor has one manual reset, cali-
brated trip, magnetic circuit breaker. Do not bypass connec-
tions or increase the size of the circuit breaker to correct trou-
ble. Determine the cause and correct it before resetting the
breaker.
Overtemperature — Each 06D type compressor (48AJ,AK,
AW,AY020-035 and 48EJ,EK,EW,EY024-038 units only) has
an internal protector to protect it against excessively high dis-
charge gas temperatures.
Crankcase Heater — Each compressor has a crankcase heater
to prevent absorption of liquid refrigerant by oil in the crank-
case when the compressor is idle. Since power for the crank-
case heaters is drawn from the unit incoming power, main unit
power must be on for the heaters to be energized.

EVAPORATOR FAN MOTOR PROTECTION — A manu-
al reset, calibrated trip, magnetic circuit breaker protects
against overcurrent. Do not bypass connections or increase the
size of the breaker to correct trouble. Determine the cause and
correct it before resetting the breaker. If the evaporator-fan
motor is replaced with a different horsepower motor, resizing
of the circuit breaker is required. Contact Carrier Application
Engineering.
CONDENSER-FAN MOTOR PROTECTION — Each
condenser-fan motor is internally protected against
overtemperature.
HIGH- AND LOW-PRESSURE SWITCHES — If either
switch trips, or if the compressor overtemperature switch
activates, that refrigerant circuit will be automatically
locked out. See Compressor Lockout Logic section on this
page.

FREEZE PROTECTION THERMOSTAT (FPT) — Freeze
protection thermostats are located on the evaporator coil for
each circuit. One is located at the top and bottom of each coil. It
detects frost build-up and turns off the compressor, allowing
the coil to clear. Once the frost has melted, the compressor can
be reenergized.

Relief Devices —

All units have relief devices to protect

against damage from excessive pressures (i.e., fire). These de-
vices are installed on the suction line, liquid line, and on the
compressor.

Power Circuit —

A typical power wiring schematic is

shown in Fig. 77.

Control Circuit, 24-V —

This control circuit is protect-

ed against overcurrent by a 3.2 amp circuit breaker (CB4).
Breaker can be reset. If it trips, determine cause of trouble be-
fore resetting. A typical 24-v control wiring schematic is
shown in Fig. 78 and 79.

Control Circuit, 115-V —

This control circuit is pro-

tected against overcurrent by a 5.2 amp circuit breaker (CB3).
Breaker can be reset. If it trips, determine cause of trouble be-
fore resetting. A typical 115-v control wiring schematic is
shown in Fig. 80 and 81.

Compressor Lockout Logic —

If any of the safeties

trip, the circuit will automatically reset (providing the safety
has reset) and restart the compressor in 15 minutes. If any of
the safeties trip 3 times within a 90-minute period, then the cir-
cuit will be locked out and will require manual resetting by
turning off either the unit disconnect or the control circuit
breaker, or opening the thermostat.

If the compressors have bee off for more than 15 minutes

and the outdoor-air temperature (OAT) is less than 45 F then
safeties will be ignored for 5 minutes.

Replacement Parts —

A complete list of replacement

parts may be obtained from any Carrier distributor upon
request.

IMPORTANT: After a prolonged shutdown or service job,
energize the crankcase heaters for 24 hours before starting
the compressors.
