WARNING – Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION – Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

may result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe

practices.

CAUTION – Indicates a situation that may result in equipment or property-damage-

only accidents.

WarningsandCautionsmayappearthroughoutthismanual.Readthesecarefully.

All 2.5 to 5 ton three phase split system cooling units and heat pumps are shipped from

the factory with compressor crankcase heat. Three phase compressor do not require

start capacitors or start relays.

CCHT - Compressor Crankcase Heater, sometimes called a compressor sump heater.

This device is designed to warm the compressor crankcase (or sump) in order to prevent

or deter refrigerant migration during the compressor off cycle. Compressor crankcase

heaters are required for low ambient cooling operation.

TXV - Thermostatic Expansion Valve. This is a type of refrigerant flow control device

designed to maintain constant superheat throughout the operating envelope. For low

ambient cooling applications, a non-bleed TXV is required.

Bleed TXV: This type of TXV will allow the refrigerant pressures between the high side

and low side to equalize through the valve during the off cycle.

Non Bleed TXV: This type of TXV will not allow the refrigerant pressures between the

high side and low side to equalize through the valve during the off cycle. When using this

type of valve on single phase units with reciprocating style compressors, compressor

start components are required. Check product data specifications for most current infor-

mation.

Head pressure controller -Adevice that is field installed on a condensing unit or heat

pump designed to maintain system head pressure that will allow safe system operation

without indoor coil icing in colder outdoor ambients. The BAYLOAM*** will cycle the

condenser fan motor in order to achieve adequate operating head pressure. The control

isadjustable.

Evaporator Defrost Control -Adevice that is field installed on the system’s indoor coil

in order to prevent the system from running during the cooling cycle when the indoor coil

approaches or reaches a temperature in which frost will form on the coil surface. When

the indoor coil approaches a safe temperature for cooling operation, the control will close

and allow the outdoor unit to restart. This controller makes and breaks the control volt-

age to the condensing unit.

Quick Start Component - This component may be factory installed or offered as a field

installed accessory ( BAYKSKT***). A quick start kit consist of a capacitor with a high

microfarad rating and a potential relay. It is installed so that the start capacitor is wired in

parallel with the compressor’s run capacitor. Prior to start-up the potential relay contacts

are closed, therefore placing the start capacitor in the compressor circuit, as the com-

pressor motor reaches operating speed, electrical current flows through the potential

relay’s coil and the the relay contacts are opened, thus taking the start capacitor out of

the system until the next compressor start up.

Definitions and information:

Three phase products:

Section I - Terms and Definitions:

Section II –Off Season Cooling Operation

Trane outdoor units may be operated in the cooling mode to 55°F outdoor ambient as shipped

from the factory when applied with an indoor TXV. Where required, these units with

appropriate accessories may be applied to operate at outdoor temperatures below 55°F.

Unit requires a compressor crankcase heater and start accessory only if it is not factory installed.

Compressor Crankcase Heaters:

Reciprocating Compressor: BAYCCHT300

Large Scroll Compressor: BAYCCHT301RES

Small Scroll Compressor: BAYCCHT302RES

As noted in the above table, systems may be operated lower than 55°F by applying the

BAYLOAM103 or BAYLOAM107 and other accessories. The BAYLOAM*** controller cycles

the outdoor fan motor as needed to maintain liquid line temperature as set by the DIP switches

located on the control. There is no need to change the outdoor motor on approved products since

the controller does not vary the frequency to the motor. However the BAYLOAM*** CANNOT

be applied to those model tonnages with a variable speed condenser fan motor.

Lowambientcoolingutilizing thefrostcontrolinGAM5AandTAM4 indoorunits:

TheTAM4andTAM7fancoilunitsutilizeanelectronicexpansionvalve(EEV).Withthisenhancementthe

controlsthatmonitortheEEValso allow us totakeadvantageofmonitoringcoil temperature.

How it works:

The on-board electronic controls include a relay that will open when the indoor coil begins to frost.

When this occurs, the contacts to the YO circuit will open and de-energize the outdoor unit, provided

figure 2 and 3 are followed. When the YO circuit opensthe outdoor unit is taken off line; however,

the indoor blower continues to operate, thus clearing the indoor coil of frost build-up.

Lowambientcooling utilizingthermostaticcontrolfound intheAY28X079andAY28X084.

How it works:

These controls are thermally controlled contacts with a capillary style sensor. The capillary tube is

inserted into the coil fins in between the tube rows. When the sensor detects 25F, the contacts open.

The contacts close when the coil temperature reaches 60F. When wired as shown in figures 4 and 5,

the outdoor unit is de-energized when the EDC contact opens and re-energizes when the EDC

contact closes.
