TECHNICAL SUPPORT MANUALSplit System Air Conditioner: (C,H,T)CA7R--410A QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE R--410A refrigerant operates at 50% -- 70% higher pressures than R--22. Be sure that servicing equipment andreplacement components are designed to operate with R--410A. R--410A refrigerant cylinders are rose colored. Recovery cylinder service pressure rating must be 400 psig, DOT 4BA400 or DOT BW400. R--410A systems should be charged with liquid refrigerant. Use a commercial type metering device in themanifold hose when charging into suction line with compressor operating. Manifold sets should be 750 psig high--side and 200 psig low--side with 520 psig low--side retard. Use hoses with 750 psig service pressure rating. Leak detectors should be designed to detect HFC refrigerant. R--410A, as with other HFC refrigerants, is only compatible with POE oils. Vacuum pumps will not remove moisture from oil. Do not use liquid line filter--driers with rated working pressures less than 600 psig. Do not install a suction line filter--drier in liquid line. POE oils absorb moisture rapidly. Do not expose oil to atmosphere. POE oils may cause damage to certain plastics and roofing materials. Wrap all filter--driers and service valves with wet cloth when brazing. A liquid line filter--drier is required on every unit. Do not use with an R--22 TXV. If indoor unit is equipped with an R--22 TXV, it must be changed to an R--410A TXV. Never open system to atmosphere while it is under a vacuum. When system must be opened for service, break vacuum with dry nitrogen and replace all filter--driers. Evacuateto 500 microns before recharging. Do not vent R--410A into the atmosphere. Do not use capillary tube indoor coils. Observe all WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, NOTES, and bold text.4International Comfort Products, LLCLewisburg, TN 37091 USA421 04 1801 00

Compressor furnished with inherent thermal protection.2. To be wired in accordance with National Electric Code (N.E.C.) and local codes.3. Outdoor unit control requires a minimum of 27 va, 24 vac control power.4. Use copper conductors only. Use conductors suitable for at least 70ºC (167ºF).5. If indoor section has a transformer with a grounded secondary, connect the grounded side to “C”.6. If any of the original wire, as supplied, must be replaced, use the same or equivalent wire.7. Check all electrical connections inside control box for tightness.8. Do not attempt to operate unit until service valves have been opened (Back Seated).9. MUST USE THERMOSTAT OR OBSERVER WALL CONTROL LISTED IN PRE--SALE LITERATURE ONLY.10. In case of non-- communicating indoor system disconnect factory provided wires from Dx and Dx-- terminals.Use factory provided wires to connect to W1, Y1, Y2, and O as required by installation instructions. Cap orremove unused factory provided wires. If additional grounding is needed connect to “C” terminal.11. For communicating control only.338755--101428 04 1801 005REV. A

To bypass this feature, momentarily short and release Forced Defrost pins or hold the“Cool To” or “Heat To” button on the Observer Wall Control for 10 seconds.--Five minute compressor re--cycle delay on return from a brown--out condition.--Two minute time delay to return to standby operation from last valid communication (Observer Communicating Wall Control only).--One minute time delay of outdoor fan at termination of cooling mode when outdoorambient is greater than or equal to 100 F (37.8 C).--Fifteen second delay at termination of defrost before the auxiliary heat (W1) is de-energized.--Twenty second delay at termination of defrost before the outdoor fan is energized.--Thirty second compressor delay and 40 seconds outdoor fan delay when quietshift enabled.Crankcase Heater--The crankcase heater is de--energized when the compressor is running. The crankcase heater is enegized when the compressor is off and the ambient is less than 42 F. When the ambient temperature isbetween 65 F and 42 F the crankcase heater is energized 30 minutes after the compressorIs turned off. When the ambient is above 65 F the crankcase heater remains de--energized after thecompressor is turned off.Defrost time selectionThis control offers 5 possible defrost interval times: 30, 60, 90, 120 minutes, or AUTO. Defrost intervalsare selected by dip switches on the unit control board or by the Observer Wall Control. The ObserverWall Control selection overrides the control board dip switch settings.AUTO defrost adjusts the defrost interval time based on the last defrost time as follows:When defrost time 3 minutes, the next defrost interval 120 minutes.When defrost time 3--5 minutes, the next defrost interval 90 minutes.When defrost time 5--7 minutes, the next defrost interval 60 minutes.When defrost time 7 minutes, the next defrost interval 30 minutes.428 04 1801 007
