Control Specifications and Diagnostics
High Pressure Cutout (HPCO) if applicable
FUNCTION
The high pressure cutout control turns the
Reach-In unit off if it is subjected to excessive
high side pressure. This control is normally
closed (N.C.) and opens on a rise in pressure.
SPECIFICATIONS
Cut-out 440 psig +/- 10
Cut-in Manual reset (below 300 psig)
CHECK PROCEDURE
1. Set the ON/OFF switch to OFF.
2. Reset the HPCO if tripped.
3. Hook a voltmeter in parallel across the
HPCO, leaving the wires attached.
4. Connect the manifold gauges.
5. Disconnect the condenser fan motor.
6. Set the ON/OFF switch to ON.
7. Lack of air flowing through the condenser
will cause the HPCO to open. Watch the
high pressure gauge. Record the pressure
at which the cut-out occurs.
REPLACEMENT
Replace the HPCO if:
1. The control will not reset.
NOTE: High side pressure must be below
300 psig to enable the manual reset.
2. The control does not open at
440 psig +/- 10.
Liquid Injection Valve
(FS1, FS2, FS3 with R-402B [HP81] Only)
FUNCTION
The liquid injection valve injects saturated
vapor into the suction line of the compressor.
This is done to keep the discharge line
temperature below 245°F (118°C).
SPECIFICATIONS
Valve Settings 237°F (+3°F/-2°F)
114°C (+1.6°C/-1.1°C)
VALVE FAILS CLOSED
Measure the temperature of the discharge line
at the sensor bulb. If the temperature rises
above specifications and the control does not
open, replace the control.
VALVE FAILS OPEN
Suction pressure will be higher than normal.
Liquid refrigerant flowing through the valve
will “flash off,” causing frost on the suction
line.
