Be sure unit is in normal cooling mode by checking that the RH2
solenoid coil(s) and the CRC relay are deenergized (control outputs
off). Adjust charge per the charging charts as described in the To
Use The Cooling Charging Charts, Standard Unit section. Switch
system to run in the dehumidification mode for 5 minutes.
Dehumidification mode is when the RH2 solenoid coil(s) and the
CRC relay are energized. Switch back to cooling mode to recheck
pressures and temperatures on the charging chart and adjust charge
if necessary. If charge adjustment is necessary, then repeat the steps
in this paragraph until no charge adjustment is necessary. When no
more charge adjustment is necessary after switching from
Dehumidification mode back to Cooling mode, then charge
adjustment procedure is complete. Remove jumper from the
outdoor motor speed controller.

Puron

R Refrigerant

Puron refrigerant operates at 50 to 70 percent higher pressures than
R-22. Be sure that servicing equipment and replacement
components are designed to operate with Puron refrigerant. Do not
mix with components that have been used with other refrigerants.
Puron refrigerant, as with other HFCs, is only compatible with
POE oils.

Recovery cylinder service pressure rating must be 400 psig. Puron
systems should be charged with liquid refrigerant. Use a
commercial-type metering device in the manifold hose. 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.

*As the height above sea level increases, there is less oxygen per cubic foot of air.
Therefore, heat input rate should be reduced at higher altitudes. Includes a 4%
input reduction per each 1000 ft.

Gas Valve Adjustment (48PG and PM)

The gas valve opens and closes in response to the thermostat or
limit control.

When power is supplied to valve terminals W2 (High Fire) and C1,
the main valve opens to its preset position.

The regular factory setting is stamped on the valve body.

To adjust regulator:

1. Set unit at setting for no call for heat.

2. Turn main gas valve to OFF position.

3. Remove

1

8

-in. pipe plug from manifold pressure tap

connection. Install a suitable pressure-measuring device.

4. Set main gas valve to ON position.

5. Set thermostat at setting to call for heat.

6. Remove screw cap covering regulator adjustment screw.

(See Fig. 69.)

7. Turn adjustment screw clockwise to increase pressure or

counterclockwise to decrease pressure. The setting is 3.50
in. wg on sizes 03-14 and 3.00 on size 16−28.

8. Once desired pressure is established, set unit setting for no

call for heat, turn off main gas valve, remove
pressure-measuring device, and replace
