9.2 Start-up

9.0 Final Checks

and Start-Up

(cont’d)

Record the ambient temperature. Adjust the system controller so that

a call for cooling exists.
NOTE: If the system has digital controls, outdoor ambient lockouts

may prevent mechanical cooling. Temporarily override lockouts by

lowering the cooling setpoint. (If installing a PreevA

®

air handler, refer

to the digital programmable control section in the instruction manual.)

When testing is complete, reset the controller.

Because it is a possible to unknowingly connect 3-phase power

in such a way as to cause the scroll compressor to rotate in

reverse, it is very important to check this on startup.

Immediately at startup, observe the gauges. If the suction pres-

sure rises and discharge pressure drops, the compressor is

operating in reverse and must be shut down. Turn off the power

and switch the 3-phase line voltage wiring connections before

restarting the unit.
(Important NOTE:
If allowed to operate for several minutes in

reverse, the compressor’s internal protector will trip. If a compressor

is repeatedly allowed to restart and run in reverse, the compressor

will be permanently damaged.)

9.2.2 Operating Sequence

For a two-stage cooling sequence, jumper Terminal Y2 to Y3. The

operating sequence is #1 (Circuit A Compressor); then #1 and #2

(both Circuit A and Circuit B Compressors).

For a three-stage cooling sequence, the operating sequence is #1

(Circuit A Compressor); then #2 (Circuit B Compressor); and then #1

and #2 (both Circuit A and Circuit B Compressors).

NOTE: Redo startup procedures when the cooling season begins.

CAUTION

Crankcase heaters must be allowed to warm up for at least

24 hours prior to startup. Disable cooling controls before

turning on power to warmup crankcase heaters. See Hazard

Levels, page 3.

Assumptions: All pre-startup checks have been made and crankcase heaters

have been allowed to warmup for at least 24 hours.

9.2.1 Power Supply Voltage Phasing

Connect refrigerant pressure gauges to the suction and discharge

lines of the compressors and an electric meter to the power supply.

CAUTION

Be sure to connect pressure gauges to the suction and

discharge lines before system start-up so that compressor

rotation can be checked immediately. Scroll compressors

will be destroyed if allowed to operate in the wrong direction.
