determine the source of the noise and correct
as necessary.
OUTDOOR THERMOSTAT (if supplied)
The outdoor thermostat prevents the electrical
auxiliary heat (if used) from operating above a
desired set point. Selection of the set point is
determined from the building design heat load.
The thermostat is adjustable from 45°F to 0°F.
The factory temperature setting is at 40°F.
Defrost Cycle Timer — The defrost cycle timer
controls the time interval of the hot gas defrost
after the defrost sensor closes. It is located
in the lower left corner of the defrost control
board. Three interval settings are available: 30
minutes, 60 minutes, and 90 minutes. Time setting
selection is dependent on the climate where the
unit is being installed.
Example 1. Dry climate of Southern
Arizona. A 90 minute setting is
recommended.
Example 2. Moist climate of Seattle,
Washington. A 30 minute setting is
recommended.
To set the cycle timer, place the timing pin on
the defrost control board to the desired time
interval post.
Note: All units are shipped from the factory with
the default time setting of 30 minutes. Maximum
heating performance can be achieved by setting
the time to 90 minutes.
Defrost Test Procedure
1.
Terminals “R”-”C” must have 18-30v present
between them in order for time delay and
defrost sequences to be initiated.
