Figure 1-3. Air conditioner top view, top covers removed

hoses, electrical control panel and con-trols, main input power connector, con-trol mdule, and the ventilation airdamper door and control knob. The evap-orator fan draws air into the unit, fromthe space being conditioned, through theinlet louver and air conditioning fil-ter, or when required, from the outsideof the unit, through the fresh air fil-ter and ventilation duct; air is thenforced over the heater elements throughevaporator coil, mist eliminator andoutlet louver. The outlet louver hasadjustable blades for directing the airflow into a desired pattern within thespace being conditioned. The evaporatorfan speed is controlled by a toggleswitch on the control module.

b. Condenser Section. The condensersection (fig. 1-3) located in the rear

part of the air conditioner contains thecondenser coil, condenser coil guard,two condenser motors and fans, motorcompressor, condenser fan housings andlouvers, louver actuator, ventilationair duct, fresh air filter and ventscreen, thermal switch, refrigerantliquid sight indicator, solenoid valves,expansion quench valve, discharge bypassregulation valve, pressure relief valve,system access service valves, filter-drier, refrigerant liquid receiver, ac-cumulator, associated electrical wiringand refrigerant tubing and an alternatepower input connector. The condenserfan speed is controlled by a thermalswitch located on rear of unit. At am-bient temperatures of 100°F +5°F (38°C+3°C) or higher, the condenser fanmotors will operate at high speed (3750RPM); and at ambient temperatures below100°F (38°C), the motor will operate at

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

If equipment fails to operaterefer to troubleshooting pro-cedures in chapter 3.

Section I. CONTROLS AND INSTRUMENTS.

2-1. General.

This section describes, locates andillustrates the various controls andprovides the operator/crew sufficientinformation to insure proper operationof the air conditioner.

2-2. Controls and Instruments.

a. General. The location and thefunction controls and instrumentsare illustrated in figure 2-1. The con-trol module contains the control circuitbreaker, the manually operated tempera-ture selector switch, mode selectorswitch, evaporator fan speed switch andcompressor circuit breaker. The controlmodule Is designed to permit remote con-trol operation of the air conditionerwhen connected with a remote controlcable. The thermostatic control pointof the air temperature is determined bythe location of the temperature selectorswitch sensing bulb. Normally, the airconditioner is operated with the con-trol module remaining on the unit andthe sensing bulb of temperature selec-tor switch located in the inlet airstream inside the unit evaporator sec-tion.

b. Temperature Selector Switch. Thetemmrature selector switch is a thermo-static switch which responds to temper-ature variations from 60°F in the maxi-mum cooler position to 90°F (15.6°C to32.2°C) in maximum warmer position. Thebest preliminary adjustment of the temp-erature selector is midway between thecooler and warmer positions, corre-sponding to approximately 75°F (24°C). Aten minute period should be allowed be-tween adjustments of the temperatureselector for the full effect of the ad-justment to be realized. Once the de-sired temperature of the air conditionerspace is obtained, no further adjust-ment is required for either cooling orheating modes of operation.

c. Mode Selector Switch. The modeselector switch iS an electrical switchthat can be manually positioned to se-lect the desired operational mode of theair conditioner. The five positions ofthe mode selector are:

(1) Off. The off mode position isused to stop operation. All major elec-trical components are isolated fromelectrical power except the compressorcrankcase heater, which is thermostat-ically controlled as long as input poweris connected to the unit.

(2) Vent. In the vent mode posi-tion, the evaporator motor operates andthe fans circulate filtered air. Venti-lation air will be drawn into the unitthrough the fresh air filter and ventduct if the damper door in the vent ductis open. Some cooling effect will occurif the ventilation air is cold. Venti-lation air flow is controlled by open-ing and closing the damper door with thevent adjusting knob.

(3) Cooler. In the cooler modeposition, the refrigerant cycle begins,and the unit will cool under the thermo-static control of the temperature selec-tor switch. The evaporator fan motor,condenser fan motors and compressor areactivated and will operate continuously.The speed of the evaporator fan motor iscontrolled by manually selecting the de-sired speed position of the evaporatorfan speed switch. The speed of conden-ser fan motors is automatically con-trolled by an outdoor thermal switch.The motors will operate in low speedwhen ambient temperature is below 100°F(38°C). The thermal switch automatic-ally switches the motors to high speedif ambient temperature rises above 100°F(38°C). To prevent starting surge cur-rent of the compressor coinciding withthe starting surge current of the fanmotors, the compressor starts about 30

seconds after the fan motors. Althoughthe compressor and fan motors operatecontinuously in this mode, thermostaticaction of the temperature selectorswitch causes refrigerant to bypass theevaporator coil and stop cooling whenthe desired temperature setting of thetemperature selector switch is satis-fied. Ventilation air will be drawn in-to the unit if the vent damper door isopen.

(4) Low Heat. In the low heatmode, the evaporator fan motor operatescontinuously and three of the six heaterelements are activated. The three heat-er elements cycle on and off under ther-mostatic control of the temperature se-lector switch. This mode will producehalf of the unit’s heating capability.Ventilation air will be drawn into theunit if the vent damper door is open.

(5) High Heat. In the high heatmode, the evaporator fan motor operatescontinuously and all six of the heaterelements are activated, but only threeof the heater elements will cycle on andoff under thermostatic control of thetemperature selector switch. This modewill produce maximum heating capabilityof the unit. Ventilation air will bedrawn into the unit if the vent damperdoor is open.

d. Evaporator Fan Speed Switch. Theevaporator fan speed switch has two po-sitions, “low” and “high.” The posi-tions are manually selected to controlthe evaporator fan speed in all operat-ing modes. Normally the “low” speedshould be selected as it is quieter andrequires less electrical power; however,the “high” speed position has three ad-vantages over “low” which may dictateits selection:

(1) Maximum cooling capacity canonly be achieved in “high.”

(2) The increased flow of evapora-tor air improves air distribution in theconditioned space.

(3) Twice as much ventilation airis drawn into the unit in “high.”

e. Vent Adjusting Knob. The ventadjusting knob controls the flow of ven-tilation air into the unit. The knob isconnected by the damper cable to a damp-er located in the vent duct. The knobcontrols the flow of ventilation air byadjusting the position of the damper

from full closed to full open. Turningthe knob to the right closes the damper,turning the knob to the left opens thedamper. The force that draws ventila-tion air into the unit is the smallpressure difference between the ambientand the evaporator fan. This is thesame small pressure difference thatexists between the conditioned space andthe evaporator fan; the pressure differ-ence that draws return air through theinlet louver and the return air filter.When ventilation air enters the condi-tioned space a like flow of air must ex-haust from the space to prevent a pres-sure buildup. Cracks in the space maybe sufficient; but if a large flow ofventilation air is desired, some posi-tive means of air exhaust should be pro-vided.

f. Inlet Louver. The inlet louveris finger-adjustable from full open tofull closed. Normally the louver shut-ter tab adjustment is kept at 45° posi-tion, which is essentially the same as afull open inlet louver. If the inletlouver is closed, return air will stillmanage to flow through it; but at a re-duced rate with high pressure drop. Theincrease in pressure drop will cause ad-ditional ventilation air to be drawn in-to the unit. The “vent” mode of oper-ation is normally the only mode whereclosing the inlet louver (to create in-creased ventilation airflow) would beconsidered a real advantage. suf-ficient ventilation air flow for othermodes of operation can be achieved withthe inlet louver open and the damperopen. The return air filter is attachedto the back side of the inlet louver. Adirty filter can easily be observed bylooking through the inlet louver blades.Since maximum cooling capability of theunit is obtained with maximum evapora-tor air flow, a closed inlet louver or adirty air filter will decrease coolingcapacity, and may cause ice to form onthe evaporator coil.

g. Outlet Louver. The outlet louveris finger-adjustable in both horizontaland vertical planes. This adjustment onan individual blade basis allows maximumcontrol over the direction of outletair. The best distribution pattern foroutlet air is left to the operator’sjudgment; but blades should not be ad-justed beyond 45°, as evaporator airflow will be impeded.

h. Condenser Louvers. The condens-er louvers, located on the rear of the

i. Compressor Circuit Breaker. Thecompressor circult breaker is a safetydevice which provides overcurrentprotection for the compressor. Thecompressor circuit breaker is not a con-trol switch to be used for operating theunit. This breaker should always bekept in the ON position. If the breakertrips to the OFF position, a defectivecompressor or related defective elec-trical components, or faulty wiring, isindicated. Inadequate input powervoltage will also cause the circuitbreaker to trip. The unit control cir-cuit is also connected to auxiliarycontacts on the compressor circuit

breaker. When this circuit breakertrips to OFF, it disconnects the controlcircuit allowing the time delay relay toreset and the refrigerant system pres-sures to equalize. Manually resettingthe compressor circuit breaker to ON re-stores electrical continuity.

j. Control Circuit Breaker. Thecontrol circuit breaker iS a safety de-vice which provides overcurrent protec-tion for the control circuit of theunit. The control circuit breaker isnot a control switch to be used for op-erating the unit. This breaker shouldalways be maintained in the ON position.If the breaker trips to the OFF posi-tion, an electrical defect in the con-trol circuit is indicated and correctiveaction should be taken. Manually reset-ting the circuit breaker to ON restoreselectrical continuity.

b. Control Circuit. The cause forthe–failure of the system to operate canbe narrowed to a specific portion of thesystem if the control component associ-ated with the failure can be isolated.It is the purpose of safety devices toopen the circuit under certain overload

or fault conditions. If a safety deviceis open, additional checking is requiredto determine if the open is due to afaulty safety device or if the safetydevice is performing its intended func-tion, and the fault is located elsewherein the system. To check the controlcircuit, proceed as follows:

(1) Disconnect air conditioner fromsource of power.

(2) Using a series test lamp orohmmeter, check the continuity througheach control in the affected circuitwith the control in the closed positionwhile being checked. Use the systemschematic and wiring diagram for point-to-point circuit tracing.

(3) Replace each defective partwith a serviceable like item.

c. Safety Devices. When testing thecontrol circuit and associated compo-nents, take into account the normalstate of the safety device. Determine(1) whether it is normal for the deviceto be open under the existing conditionsor (2) if the open condition indicatestrouble elsewhere in the air condition-er.

Section III. GENERAL MAINTENANCE

5-5. General.

This section contains general servic-ing instructions that otherwise wouldhave to be repeated several times inthis manual.

5-6. Testing for Leaks.

The air conditioner can be tested forrefrigerant leaks by the use of an elec-tronic leak detector, by the halide testor by the soap bubble method. The pre-ferred method is use of the electronicleak detector. If sufficient pressureis not present in the system to accom-plish an adequate leak test, add drynitrogen at the receiver charging valveto increase the system pressure to 300psig, then conduct the leak test. Ifthe system is totally discharged, toconserve leak test refrigerant, pres-surize the system with R-12 to 72 psig,isolate the compressor by front-seatingthe service valves (1 and 2, figure3-2). At the receiver charging valvepressurize the system with dry nitrogento 300 psig, then conduct the leaktest.

(1) By Electronic Leak Detector.Using a G.E. Type H-2 Leak Detector, orequivalent, proceed as follows:

(a) Turn on and calibrate theleak detector as described in the in-structions supplied with the instru-ment.

(b) Slowly pass the detectorprobe tip over the sweat fittings, mech-anical couplings and valves in the re-frigerant circuit. If refrigerant isleaking, detector will provide a visibleor audible signal.

(c) Use the soap-bubble method tolocalize the leak to a defective com-ponent or connection.

(2) By Halide Leak Test. Using apropane flame halide leak detector, pro-ceed as follows.

(a) Slowly pass the exploringtube on the torch over the sweat fit-tings, mechanical couplings and valves.If refrigerant is leaking, the flamewill be affected as follows:

INSTRUCTIONS

Small leak -- flame changes fromblue to green

Large leak -- flame changes fromblue to dense bluewith reddish tip

Massive leak- may extinguish flame

(b) Use the soap-bubble method tolocalize the leak to a defective com-ponent or connection.

(3) By Soap Solution Method. Usingeither a prepared bubble-type leak de-tector compound or a solution of handsoap in water, proceed as follows.

(a) Apply the solution to allpoints of possible leakage, and watchfor bubble formation indicating a re-frigerant leak.

NOTE

Allow solution to remaijoints long enough forleaks to form noticeabbles.

n onsmalle bub-

(b) Wipe solution from joints andmark spots where leakage is observed.

5-7. Refrigeration System.

a. Opening System. When the refrig-eration system must undergo maintenancethat requires the system to be openedfor removal of parts, the system mustfirst be discharged (para 6-3). Afterthe repair has been made and all solder-ing completed, the system must be testedfor leaks and charged (para 6-3).

b. Removal of Parts. When the re-frigeration system must undergo main-tenance that requires the refrigerantsystem to be opened for removal ofparts, the system must first be dis-charged and purged (figure 6-1). Afterthe repair has been made and all solder-ing completed, the system must be testedfor leaks and charged (para 6-3). Ex-cept for flare nut connection, all thetubing attachments in the refrigerationsystem are “sweat-joints” which areopened by heating with a brazing torch.During unseating, shield the wiring,insulation, painted metal, and valvesfrom the heat of the torch. Use wet

cloths to protect the gas charge in ex-pansion valve bulbs and capillary tub-ing.

1. Brazing operations shouldbe carried out using approvedeye protection equipment androds not containing cadmium.

2. Certain brazing operationsmay require mechanicalventilation.

3. Local preventive medicinepersonnel should be queriedif doubt exists as to rodcomposition or ventilationrequirements.

c. Brazing. Braze copper-to-copperjoints with silver solder type 3, 4 or6A specification QQ-S-561 and copper-to-brass or copper-to-steel with type 4 or6A specification QQ-S-561 per MIL-B-7883. Solder melting point is 1160°F(625°C). All brazed or soldered jointsshall be made with an atmosphere of in-ert gas to prevent internal oxidation.

5-8. Insulation and Gaskets.

Replace dmaged insulation and gas-kets. Cement loose insulation.

5-9. Hardware.

Replace any damaged screws, washers,lockwashers or nuts. use screws of cor-rect length to hold parts securely. Insome applications screws that are toolong may hit bottom before the head istight against part it is to hold or maycause damage to the threads or otherparts.

5-10. Shims.

Be sure to remove all shims whereused. Keep shims together and identifythem as to location.

5-11. Repairing Damaged Threads.

Damaged threads should be repaired byuse of a thread restorer or by chasingin a lathe. Internal threads should berepaired with a tap of the correct size.If threads cannot be satisfactorily re-paired, replace the part. Drill out andreplace blind rivet nuts having defec-tive threads.

5-12. Repair of Damaged Machined andPolished Surfaces.

Smooth rough spots, scores, burrs,galling, and gouges from damaged ma-chined and polished surfaces so thatpart will efficiently perform its normalfunction. The finish of the repairedpart is to approximate that of the orig-inal finish. In perfoming any of theseoperations, critical dimensions must notbe altered.

5-13. Removal of Rust or Corrosion.

Remove corrosion from all parts of ma-terial. To remove rust or corrosion,use wire brush, abrasive cloth, sandblast, vapor blast equipment, or rustremover except on highly polished sur-faces. On these surfaces, buffing orthe use of crocus cloth is recommended.

5-14. Tubes and Fittings.

Check tubes and fittings for crackedor split condition. Check tubing forkinks. Replace defective fittings. Re-place damaged tubing with tubing of samesize. Take care in making bends in tub-ing to prevent kinking of tubing. Alltubing and fittings must be completelyclean on inside prior to installation.

5-15. Valves.

Valves and other parts should behandled carefully to prevent damage.Capillary tubes must be handled verycarefully to prevent kinking of thetubes.

a. General. L1 and L2 are elec-trically-operated valves, which closewhen electrical power is applied to thesolenoid coils. Both are alike, onlythe usage is different. L2 which openswhen the air conditioner is switched offthe cooling mode, allows low side andhigh side pressures to equalize. Whenthe air in the conditioned space haslowered to the thermostat (S8) setting,L1 opens allowing refrigerant to bypassthe expansion valve thereby discon-tinuing cooling without shutting downthe compressor.

CHAPTER 6

REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS

Section I. REFRIGERATION SYSTEM

6-1. General.

The refrigerant system, illustratedby the refrigerant flow diagram (figure5-1), is a mechanical, vapor cycle typecircuit consisting of the evaporator,thermal expansion valve, motor-compres-sor, condenser, and the necessary valvesand cutout devices for automatic controlduring operation. The thermal expansionvalve releases high-pressure liquid re-frigerant into the evaporator at reducedpressure. The liquid refrigerant beginsto vaporize by absorbing heat from theair passing over the external surface ofthe evaporator coil. The heated vaporis sucked out of the evaporator sectionby the motor-compressor and forced intothe condenser section under high pres-sure where it is cooled and condensedback into a liquid. The heat releasedduring condensation is carried off bythe condensing air stream. The liquidrefrigerant flows from the condenser toa receiver, to a subcooler, and then tothe thermal expansion valve. If thetemperature control switch (evaporatorreturn air thermostat) becomes satis-fied, or the evaporator return air tem-perature is lower than the controlswitch set point, the refrigerant systemwill switch to a bypass condition. Thetemperature control switch will activatethe normally-open liquid bypass solenoidvalve, closing the valve, and thereforeshutting off the evaporator section ofthe unit. The motor-compressor willcontinue to pump as usual and the suc-tion pressure will begin to drop. Whenit reaches approximately 58 psig (400kPa), the pressure regulating valve willstart to open in an effort to maintainthe suction pressure above 55 psig (380kPa) (approximately). As the suctiontemperature increases, due to the pres-sure regulating valve opening, the

TM 5-4120-361-14

quench expansion valve will start tometer liquid refrigerant into the suc-tion line in an effort to maintain thesuction temperature below 75°F (24°C)(approximately), or 30°F (-1°C) super-heat (approximately). This action (thepressure regulator and quench valve ac-tions) is totally automatic and also mayoccur at extreme conditions in an at-tempt to maintain the suction pressures(even during the cooling mode) at acondition above 55 psig (380 kPa) andthe suction temperatures (measured atthe quench bulb well) below 75°F (24°C).The condenser louvers are operated by arefrigerant powered piston located inthe high pressure part of the system.This piston should be fully extended(louvers open at 80°F (27°C) -proximately) at 250 psig (1140 kPa) headpressure and fully closed at 165 psig(1140 kPa). Failure to perform thisfunction could result in icing of theevaporator coil and/or cutout on the lowpressure cutout.

6-2. Pressure Testing the RefrigerantSystem.

a. General. A pressure test Willindicate whether the air conditioner isoperating at normal or at abnormal pres-sures. When the air conditioner is notoperating at normal pressures, the causeshould be ascertained and corrected.Refer to table 5-1 for troubleshootingchart.

b. System Pressure Test. Removecaps from high and low pressure servicevalves (fig. 5-6), connect suction anddischarge pressure gages to their re-spective service valves. Compare thegage reading with the normal range ofsystem pressure shown in table 6-1.

6-3. Servicing Refrigerant System.

1. Caution should be exercised with flu-orocarbon refrigerant gas (freons) as theycan displace oxygen and thereby cause suf-focation.

2. Personnel with a history or other evi-dence of cardiac rhythm abnormalitiesshould be made aware of the potential foraggravation of existing cardiac rhythmabnormalities or the induction of arryth-mias, as a result of exposure to fluorocar-bon refrigerant gases (freons). Such indi-viduals should be evaluated by localmedical authorities before working inenvironments where potential freon expo-sure may occur.

a. General. When the air conditioner must undergomaintenance that requires opening the system, the systemmust be discharged with a recovery/recycling unit prior tomaintenance, then leak tested and purged, a new dehydratorinstalled, and the system charged after maintenance.

d. Adjust. To maintain, within pre-scribed limits, by bringing into properor exact position, or by setting the op-erating characteristics to specifiedparameters.

Introduction

e. Align. To adjust specified vari-able elements of an item to bring aboutoptimum or desired performance.

f. Calibrate. To determine and causecorrections to be made or to be adjustedon instruments or test measuring and di-agnostic equipments used in precisionmeasurement. Consists of comparisons oftwo instruments, one of which is a cer-tified standard of known accuracy, todetect and adjust any discrepancy in theaccuracy of the instrument being com-pared.

g. Install. The act of emplacing,seating, or fixing into position anitem, part, or module (component or as-sembly) in a manner to allow the properfunctioning of an equipment or system.

h. Replace. The act of substitutinga serviceable like type part, subassem-bly, or module (component or assembly)for an unserviceable counterpart.

i. Repair. The application of main-tenance services (inspect, test, ser-vice, adjust, align, calibrate, or re-place) or other maintenance actions(welding, grinding, riveting, straight-eing, facing, remachining, or resurfac-ing) to restore serviceability to anitem by correcting specific damage,fault, malfunction, or failure in apart, subassembly, module (component orassembly), and item, or system.

j. Overhaul. That maintenance effort(services actions) necessary to restorean item to a completely serviceable/op-erational condition as prescribed bymaintenance standards (i.e., DMWR) in ap-propriate technical publications. Over-haul is normally the highest degree ofmaintenance performed by the Army.Overhaul does not normally return anitem to like new condition.

k. Rebuild. Consists of those ser-vices/actions necessary for the restora-tion of unserviceable equipment to alike new condition in accordance withoriginal manufacturing standards. Re-build is the highest degree of materiel

This fine document...

Was brought to you by me:

Liberated Manuals -- free army and government manuals

Why do I do it? I am tired of sleazy CD-ROM sellers, who take publicly available information, slap “watermarks” and other junk on it, and sell it. Those masters of search engine manipulation make sure that their sites that sell free information, come up first in search engines. They did not create it... They did not even scan it... Why should they get your money? Why are not letting you give those free manuals to your friends?

I am setting this document FREE. This document was made by the US Government and is NOT protected by Copyright. Feel free to share, republish, sell and so on.

I am not asking you for donations, fees or handouts. If you can, please provide a link to liberatedmanuals.com, so that free manuals come up first in search engines:
