Operation Section 5. REFRIGERANT SYSTEM 5.1 Refrigerant System Construction The component parts of the refrigerant system include the following: • Compressor, Evaporator, Condenser, Capillary tube, High Pressure Switch These parts are all connected by copper tubing. All the connections have been brazed.
Operation Section 17 5.2 Compressor • The compressor used for the unit is hermetically sealed. The compressor and the compressor motor are in one casing. (1) Compressor theory of operation • The scroll utilizes an involuted spiral which, when matched with a mating scroll form, generates a series of crescent-shaped gas pockets between the two members.
Operation Section 5.3 Condenser • The condenser is a heat exchanger with copper tubes that are covered with thin aluminum projections called plate fins. • Heat is given off and absorbed by air being pulled across the condenser fins by the centrifugal fan and then expelled through the exhaust air duct. 5.4 Capillary Tube • The capillary tube is a long thin tube utilizing High Temp./High Pressure Liquid Refrigerant line flow resistance to serve as an expansion valve.
Operation Section 19 6. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM 6.
Operation Section 6.2 Basic Operation of The Office Pro 36 Electrical Circuit • There are two basic components used to control the operation of the Office Pro 36 electrical system: - Control panel assembly - Control box • The control panel assembly contains the control panel, control board (with inputs for the freeze and room temperature thermistors), drain switch, high pressure switch and a microprocessor.
Operation Section 21 6.3 Control Box (1) Capacitors • The capacitors are used to temporarily boost the power output available to the fan motor and the compressor at start-up.
Operation Section (2) Relay board • The relay board receives signals and outputs from the control board that contains a microprocessor. The relay board contains the Dip Switch compressor, fan on and fan mode (speed) relays. • It also contains a step-down transformer that converts the line voltage (208/230 VAC) to 12 V. Temperature Scale Display Switch (°C⇔°F) Fan Mode Control Switch (STOP⇔OPERATE) I001772 • This 12 V is then converted from AC to DC and used for relay coil activation.
Operation Section 23 6.4 Fan Motor (1) For evaporator • The fan motor is a single phase, induction type Evaporator Fan Motor two-speed motor. Specifications: - Rated Voltage: 230 V, 60 Hz - Rated Output: High-210 W, Low-129 W Ground (Green/Yellow) J7 Low (Red) CF22 (Brown/White) CF21 (White) J8 High (Black) I001774 (2) For condenser • The fan motor is a single phase, induction type two-speed motor.
Operation Section 24 6.5 Compressor Motor • The compressor motor is a single-phase motor and is contained within the same housing as the compressor. Specifications: - Rated Voltage: 208/230 V, 60 Hz - Rated Output : 2300 W (at 230 V) < NOTE > An internal overload relay is used to protect the fan motors and the compressor motor. This relay is built into the fan motors and compressor motor.
Operation Section 25 6.7 Drain Switch • The Office Pro 36 is equipped with a drain tank switch. When the drain tanks accumulate approximately 8.0 gal (30 L) of condensate (water) in the drain tanks, the drain tank switch sends a signal to the microprocessor. The microprocessor stops all operation of the unit, flashes the "TANK FULL” LED, indicates "TANK FL” on the LCD and closes the contact of output signal. • This system utilizes a 0.1 A, 125/250 VAC micro-switch for this function.
Operation Section (1) How to re-start the unit • If the LCD indicates “PROGRAM ON”, press the COOL ON/OFF button to continue running the program. If the LCD indicates “PROGRAM ON” continuously (program activated), no further steps are necessary. If no program exists or the program was deactivated, press the FAN MODE button or the COOL ON/OFF button. The unit returns to the previous temperature set point. 6.
Operation Section 27 6.12 Fan Mode Control Switch • The fan motor operation is controlled by relays on the relay board through a microprocessor in the control panel assembly. The fan program in the microprocessor can be changed by a DIP switch on the left side of the relay board located in the control box.
Operation Section 28 6.14 Warning Signal Connection (Output Signal Terminal L+ and L-) • The controller is equipped with a warning signal output relay type (Form C, normal open dry contact) which can be used to monitor the failure condition.
Repair Section 29 7. TROUBLESHOOTING 7.1 Troubleshooting • Before troubleshooting the system, the following inspection should be performed. (1) Inspection of power source voltage • Check the voltage of the power source. - Single phase 208/230 V (60 Hz) • Check the operation and condition of the fuse or circuit breaker in the power source.

At normal temperature (77 °F (25 °C)) either thermistor (room or freeze) should measure approximately 10K ohm. 8.11 Inspection • In most cases, the probable cause for insufficient cooling is a clogged system, leakage or an incorrect amount of refrigerant.
Repair Section 9. REFRIGERANT SYSTEM REPAIR 9.1 Repair of Refrigerant System • In case there is a leak, obstruction, or trouble in the refrigerant system of the Office Pro 36, replace or repair the part in question. After replacing any component all connections must be brazed. (1) Proper brazing techniques • It is desirable to use a slightly reducing flame. Oxyacetylene is commonly used since it is easy to judge and adjust the condition of the flame.
Repair Section 53 (4) Use of dry nitrogen gas • During brazing, the inside of the pipe undergoes an oxidative reaction due to the brazing flame. Introduce dry nitrogen gas (0.27 gal (1 L/min); adjust with the flow regulator) through the pinchoff tube of the refrigerant. < NOTE > Take care not to allow dirt, water, oil, etc. to enter into the pipe. (5) Vertical Joint • Heat the whole brazed fitting to a proper brazing temperature.
Repair Section 54 9.2 Removal of Refrigeration Cycle Components CAUTION • Before any refrigeration cycle component can be replaced, it is necessary to recover the refrigerant using standard recovery procedures and equipment. • To prevent oxidation, dry nitrogen should be conducted (flow rate 0.27 gal (1 L/min)) through the pinch-off tube during any brazing operation. • During any component replacement involving brazing, shield nearby parts with a steel plate, etc., to protect them from the flame.
Repair Section 55 9.3 Charging the System with R-410A Refrigerant • Always ensure that the refrigerant system has been properly evacuated before charging with the specified amount of R-410A. • Equipments is only for R-410A. • Liquid charge (no gas charge). • Make sure not to use more than 90 % of the initial weight of R-410A in the cylinder. WARNING • When handling refrigerant (R-410A), the following precautions should always be observed: - Always wear proper eye protection while handling refrigerant.
