IMPORTANT INFORMATION SAFE REFRIGERANT HANDLING While these items will not cover every conceivable situation, they should serve as a useful guide. WARNING Refrigerants are heavier than air. They can "push out" the oxygen in your lungs or in any enclosed space.To avoid possible difficulty in breathing or death: • Never purge refrigerant into an enclosed room or space. By law, all refrigerants must be reclaimed. • If an indoor leak is suspected, thoroughly ventilate the area before beginning work.

PRODUCT DESIGN This section gives a basic description of cooling unit operation, its various components and their basic operation. Ensure your system is properly sized for heat gain and loss according to methods of the Air Conditioning Contractors Association (ACCA) or equivalent. CONDENSING UNIT These units are designed for free air discharge. Condensed air is pulled through the condenser coil by a direct drive propeller fan and then discharged from the cabinet top.
PRODUCT DESIGN The coils are designed for upflow, counterflow or horizontal application, using two-speed direct drive motors on the CACF/CAPF/CHPX models and BPM (Brushless Permanent Magnet) or ECM motors on the MBE models. The ARUF is a multi-position air handler (upflow/horizontal or downflow) and is equipped with a flowrator for cooling and heat pump applications. Because of its seamless copper tubing and aluminum fins, there are fewer leaks.
SYSTEM OPERATION COOLING The refrigerant used in the system is R-22. It is a clear, colorless, non-toxic, non-irritating, and non-explosive liquid. The chemical formula is CHCLF2. The boiling point, at atmospheric pressure is -41.4°F. The check valve at the indoor coil will open by the flow of refrigerant letting the now condensed liquid refrigerant bypass the indoor expansion device.

SYSTEM OPERATION EXPANSION VALVE/CHECK VALVE ASSEMBLY IN COOLING OPERATION EXPANSION VALVE/CHECK VALVE ASSEMBLY IN HEATING OPERATION Most expansion valves used in current Amana® Brand Heat Pump products use an internally checked expansion valve. This type of expansion valve does not require an external check valve as shown above. However, the principle of operation is the same.
SYSTEM OPERATION COOLING CYCLE - CONDENSING UNIT Indoor Coil Outdoor Coil Thermostatic Expansion Valve In the cooling mode, the orifice is pushed into its seat, forcing refrigerant to flow through the metered hole in the center of the orifice.
SYSTEM OPERATION AFE18-60A CONTROL BOARD DESCRIPTION The AFE18 control is designed for use in heat pump applications where the indoor coil is located above/downstream of a gas or fossil fuel furnace. It will operate with single and two stage heat pumps and single and two stage furnaces. The AFE18 control will turn the heat pump unit off when the furnace is turned on. An anti-short cycle feature is also incorporated which initiates a 3 minute timed off delay when the compressor goes off.

SERVICING WARNING Disconnect ALL power before servicing. 1. Never open a system that is under vacuum. Air and moisture will be drawn in. 2. Plug or cap all openings. 1. Remove the wiring from the control terminals. 2. Using an ohmmeter, test for continuity across the normally closed contacts. No reading indicates the control is open - replace if necessary. IF FOUND OPEN - REPLACE - DO NOT WIRE AROUND.
SERVICING R-22 MANIFOLD WARNING Pressure test the system using dry nitrogen and soapy water to locate leaks. If you wish to use a leak detector, charge the system to 10 psi using the appropriate refrigerant then use nitrogen to finish charging the system to working pressure, then apply the detector to suspect areas. If leaks are found, repair them. After repair, repeat the pressure test. If no leaks exist, proceed to system evacuation.
SERVICING SYSTEM SUPERHEAT CAUTION Use refrigerant certified to AHRI standards. Used refrigerant may cause compressor damage and will void the warranty. Most portable machines cannot clean used refrigerant to meet AHRI standards. Return Air Temperature (°F Drybulb) Ambient Condenser Inlet Temp. (°F Drybulb) 65 70 75 115 100 CAUTION Operating the compressor with the suction valve closed will void the warranty and cause serious compressor damage.
SERVICING NOTE: The compressor may run backwards (noisy operation) for 1 or 2 seconds at shutdown. This is normal and does not harm the compressor. 1. Install gauges and verify that the suction pressure drops while the discharge pressure increases. 2. Listen for normal compressor sound levels. Reverse rotation results in elevated or unusual sound levels. 3. Reverse rotation will result in substantially reduced amp draw from tabulated values.
SERVICING 1. Check for a restricted liquid line or drier. A restriction will be indicated by a temperature drop across the drier. 2. Check the operation of the power element of the valve as described in S-110 Checking Expansion Valve Operation.

SERVICING S-111 CAPILLARY TUBES/RESTRICTOR ORIFICES The capillary tubes/restrictor orifices used in conjunction with the indoor and outdoor coil, are a predetermined length and bore (I.D.). They are designed to control the rate of liquid refrigerant flow into an evaporator coil. The amount of refrigerant that flows through the capillary tube/ restrictor orifice is regulated by the pressure difference between the high and low sides of the system.
SERVICING S-120 REFRIGERANT PIPING NOTICE Violation of EPA regulations may result in fines or other penalties. Now determine if a burn out has actually occurred. Confirm by analyzing an oil sample using a Sporlan Acid Test Kit, AK3 or its equivalent. Remove the compressor and obtain an oil sample from the suction stub. If the oil is not acidic, either a burnout has not occurred or the burnout is so mild that a complete clean-up is not necessary.
SERVICING • The distance between the condenser and evaporator in a completely horizontal installation in which the indoor and outdoor unit do not differ more than 10 feet in vertical distance from each other can approach 150 feet, as long as the equivalent length does not exceed 150 feet. 4. Two-Stage Condensing Unit: The maximum length of tubing must not exceed 75 feet here indoor coil is located above the outdoor unit.
SERVICING 3. An oil trap is required at the evaporator only if the condenser is above the evaporator. Preformed oil traps are available at most HVAC supply houses, or oil traps may be created by brazing tubing elbows together (see diagram below). Remember to add the equivalent length from oil traps to the equivalent length calculation of the suction line.
