8.    Pressurize  sealed  system  with  a  combination  of  R-22
and  nitrogen  and  check  for  leaks,  using  a  suitable  leak
detector. Recover refrigerant per EPA guidelines. 
9.    Once the sealed system is leak free, install solenoid coil
       on new valve and charge the sealed system by weighing   
       in the proper amount and type of refrigerant as shown
       on rating plate. Crimp the process tubes and solder the
       ends shut. Do not leave Schrader or piercing valves in
       the sealed system. 
NOTE: When brazing a reversing valve into the system, it is 
of extreme importance that the temperature of the valve does 
not exceed 250
°F
 at any time.
Wrap  the  reversing  valve  with  a  large  rag  saturated  with 
water.  “Re-wet”  the  rag  and  thoroughly  cool  the  valve  after 
each brazing operation of the four joints involved.
The  wet  rag  around  the  reversing  valve  will  eliminate 
conduction  of  heat  to  the  valve  body  when  brazing  the  line 
connection.
6.       Protect new valve body from heat while brazing with  plastic
heat  sink  (Thermo  Trap)  or  wrap  valve  body  with  wet 
rag.
7.    Fit  all  lines  into  new  valve  and  braze  lines  into  new  
valve. 
The use of nitrogen requires a pressure
regulator. Follow all safety procedures and 
wear protective safety clothing etc. 
Failure to follow proper safety procedures 
could result in serious injury or death. 
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Locked Rotor Voltage (L.R.V.) Test 
Locked rotor voltage (L.R.V.) is the actual voltage available 
at the compressor under a stalled condition.
 
Single Phase Connections 
Disconnect power from unit. Using a voltmeter, attach one  
lead of the meter to the run “R” terminal on the compressor 
and the other lead to the common “C” terminal of the com-
pressor. Restore power to unit.
 
Determine L.R.V. 
Start the compressor with the volt meter attached; then  stop 
the unit. Attempt to restart the compressor within a couple 
of seconds and immediately read the voltage on the meter. 
The compressor under these conditions will not start and will 
usually kick out on overload within a few seconds since the 
pressures in the system will not have had time to equalize. 
Voltage should be at or above minimum voltage of 197 VAC, 
as specifi ed on the rating plate. If less than minimum, check 
for cause of inadequate power supply; i.e., incorrect wire 
size, loose electrical connections, etc. 
Amperage (L.R.A.) Test 
The running amperage of the compressor is the most  impor-
tant of these readings.  A running amperage higher  than that 
indicated in the performance data indicates that  a problem 
exists mechanically or electrically.
 
Single Phase Running and L.R.A. Test 
NOTE: Consult the specifi cation and performance section  
for running amperage. The L.R.A. can also be found on the 
rating plate. 
Select the proper amperage scale and clamp the meter 
probe around the wire to the “C” terminal of the compressor. 
Turn on the unit and read the running amperage on the me-
ter. If the compressor does not start, the reading will  indicate 
the locked rotor amperage (L.R.A.). 
Overloads
The compressor is equipped with an external overload which 
senses both motor amperage and winding temperature. High 
motor temperature or amperage heats the overload causing it 
to open, breaking the common circuit within the compressor.
Heat generated within the compressor shell, usually due  to 
recycling of the motor, is slow to dissipate. It may take any-
where from a few minutes to several hours for the overload 
to reset.

ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD 
WARNING
Turn  off  electric  power  before  service  or 
installation.  Extreme  care  must  be  used,  if  it 
becomes necessary to work on equipment with 
power applied.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury or
death.
