STEP 11 --Install Accessories
Refer to the individual instructions packaged with kits or
accessories when installing.
STEP 12 --Make Airflow Selections for 25HNA6 Series
Only Using Non-Communicating (Non-Infinity) Thermo-
stats
Airflow Selection for 58CVA/58MVB Furnaces
The 58CVA/58MVB variable speed furnaces provide high-and
low-stage blower operation to match the capacities of the
compressor at high and low stages. To select the recommended
airflow and for adjustments to the manual switches labeled
SWl-5. AC, and CF on the control board refer to the furnace
Installation. Start-UR and Operating Instructions. The
58CVA/58MVB utilizes a control center that allows the installing
technician to select the proper airflows. The HP switch
determines the airflow during high stage compressor operation.
Airflow for high- and low-stage can be calculated at either 350
CFM per ton or 400 CFM per ton, based on the positions of
SWl-5.
When using communicating (Infinity) control, dipswitch
adjustments are not necessary on furnaces. Airflows are
determined by Infinity Control setup.
Airflow Selection for FK4 or FV4 Fan Coils for 25HNA6
Series Only Using Non-Communicating (Non-Infinity)
Thermostats
The FV4 provides high- and low-stage blower operation to
match the capacities of compressor at high- and low-stage. To
select recommended airflow, refer to FV4 Installation
Instructions. The FV4 utilizes an Easy Select control board that
allows the installing technician to select proper airflows. For
adjustments to control board, select appropriate HP SIZE and
CFM ADJUST setting. This fan coil has an adjustable blower off
delay factory set at 90 sec for high- and low-stage blower
operation.

control to ON or AUTO mode, as desired. Operate unit for
15 minutes. Check system refrigerant charge.
NOTE: For 25HNA6 Series only using non-communicating
(non-Infinity) thermostat. Carrier electronic thermostats are
equipped with a 15-minute staging timer. This timer prevents the
two-stage system from operating at high stage until unit has been
operating in low stage for 15 minutes, unless there is at least a 5°F
difference between room temperature and thermostat set point. To
force high stage (after a minimum of 2 minutes in low stage),
adjust the set point at least 5°F below room ambient.
6. Set room thermostat or User Interface to HEAT or COOL
and fan control to AUTO or ON, as desired. Wait for
appropriate time delay(s). Operate unit for 15 minutes.
Check refrigerant charge.
STEP 14 --SYSTEM FUNCTIONS AND SEQUENCE OF
OPERATION
The outdoor unit control system has special functions. The
following is an overview of the two-stage control functions:
Cooling and Heating Operation
The 25HNA6 model utilizes either a standard indoor thermostat
or Infinity Communication User Interface. The 25HNA9 models
utilize an Infinity communicating User Interface only. With a call
for first stage cooling, the outdoor fan, reversing valve, and low
stage compressor are energized. If low-stage cannot satisfy
cooling demand, high-stage cooling is energized by the second
stage of indoor thermostat or User Interface. After second stage is
satisfied, the unit returns to low-stage operation until first stage is
satisfied or until second stage is required again. When both first
stage and second stage cooling are satisfied, the compressor will
shut off. The reversing valve will remain energized until the
control board power is removed or a call for heating in initiated.
With a call for heating, the outdoor fan and compressor are
energized. The compressor will operate in high or low stage
operation, as needed to meet the heating demand. When the
heating demand is satisfied, the compressor and fan will shut off.
The reversing valve is de-energized in the heating mode.
NOTE: When two-stage unit is operating at low-stage, system
vapor (suction) pressure will be higher than a standard
single-stage system or high-stage operation.
NOTE: Outdoor fan motor will continue to operate for one
minute after compressor shuts off. when outdoor ambient is
greater than or equal to 100°F.
NOTE: On 25HNA6 models, if unit has not operated within the
past 12 hours, or following a unit power-up, upon the next
thermostat high- or low-stage demand, unit operates for a
minimum of 5 minutes in high-stage.
On 25HNA6 models with non-communicating (non-Infinity)
systems, with first stage of cooling, Y1 and O are powered on;
and with second stage of cooling, Y1, Y2, and O are on. For
these systems, with first stage of heating Y1 is on and for second
stage of heating, Y1 and Y2 are on. When the reversing valve is
energized, O is powered on.
Communication and Status Function Lights
For Infinity Control only, Green communications (COMM)
Light
A green LED (COMM light) on the outdoor board (see Fig. 9)
indicates successful communication with the other system
products. The green LED will remain OFF until communications
is established. Once a valid command is received, the green LED
will turn ON continuously. If not communication is received
within 2 minutes, the LED will be turned OFF until the next valid
communication.
Amber Status Light
An amber colored STATUS light is used to display the operation
mode and fault codes as specified in the troubleshooting section.
See Table 5 for codes and definitions.
NOTE: Only one code will be displayed on the outdoor unit
control board (the most recent, with the highest priority).
Utility Interface
With Infinity Control
The utility curtailment relay should be wired between R and Y2
connections on the control board for Infinity Communicating
Systems only (see Fig. 9.) This input allows a power utility
device to interrupt compressor operation during peak load
periods. When the utility sends a signal to shut the system down,
the User Interface will display, "Curtailment Active".
One Minute Stage Change Time Delay on 25HNA6 Models
When compressor changes stages from high to low or low to
high, there is a 1-minute time delay before compressor restarts.
The outdoor fan motor remains running.
('ompressor Operation on 25HNA6 Models
When the compressor operates in high stage operation, the
compressor motor rotates clockwise. Both the lower and upper
pistons are eccentric with the rotating crankshaft and both
compress refrigerant.
When the compressor operates in low stage operation, the
compressor motor reverses direction (rotates counterclockwise).
The lower piston becomes idle and the upper piston compresses
refrigerant. The start and run windings ale reversed.
Crankcase Heater Operation
The crankcase heater is energized during unit off cycle regardless
of outside air temperature (OAT) on 25HNA6 models.
The crankcase heater is energized during off cycle below 65°F on
25HNA9 models.
Outdoor Fan Motor Operation
The outdoor unit control energizes outdoor fan any time
compressor is operating, except for defrost. The ouMoor fan
remains energized if a pressure switch or compressor overload
should open. Outdoor fan motor will continue to operate for one
minute after the compressor shuts off when the outdoor ambient
is greater than or equal to 100°F. On 25HNA6 models, the
outdoor fan remains energized during the 1-minute compressor
staging time delay.
Time Delays
The unit time delays include:
• Five minute time delay to start cooling or heating
operation when there is a call from the thermostat or
user interface. To bypass this feature, momentarily
short and release Forced Defrost pins.
• Five minute compressor re-cycle delay on return from
a brown-out condition.
• Two minute time delay to return to standby operation
from last valid conmmnication (with Infinity only).
• One minute time delay of outdoor fan at termination of
cooling mode when outdoor ambient is greater than or
equal to 100°F.
• Fifteen second delay at termination of defrost before
the auxiliary heat (Wl) is de-energized.
• Twenty second delay at termination of defrost before
the outdoor fan is energized.
• Thirty second compressor delay when quiet shift
enabled.
• On 25HNA6 models there is a 1 minute time delay
between staging from low to high and from high to low
capacity. On 25HNA9 models there is no delay; the
compressor will change from low to high and from
high to low capacity on the fly to meet the demand.
Compressor Operation on 25HNA9 Models:
When the compressor is operating in low stage, the modulating
ring is de-activated, allowing two internal bypass ports to close
off 33% of the scroll compression area, so the system operates at
part load capacity. The 24volt solenoid coil is de-energized in
low stage operation.
When the compressor is operating in high stage, the modulating
ring is activated, sealing the bypass ports, which allows the
compressor to operate at full load capacity. The 24volt solenoid
coil is energized in high stage operation. The 25HNA9 unit
contains a 230v to 24vac transformer to supply power to the
solenoid when it is energized. The compressor solenoid load
should not be included in the system (furnace or fan coil) control
power transformer sizing.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Low Ambient Cooling
When this unit is operating below 55°F outdoor temperature.
provisions must be made for low ambient operation.
Infinity Controned low ambient cooling:
This unit is capable of low ambient cooling without a kit ONLY
when using Infinity control. A low ambient kit is not required,
and the outdoor fan motor does not need to be replaced for
Infinity controlled low ambient operation. The Infinity Control
provides an automatic evaporator coil freeze protection algorithm
that eliminates the the need for an evaporator freeze thermostat.
Low ambient cooling must be enabled in the User Interface set
up. Fan may not begin to cycle until about 40°F OAT. Fan will
cycle based on coil and outdoor air temperature.
Infinity cnntrolled low ambient mode operates as follows:
• Fan is OFF when outdoor coil temp is < (outdoor air
temperature + 3 °F) or outdoor fan has been ON for 30
minutes. (Fan is turned off to allow refrigerant system to
stabilize.)
• Fan is ON when outdoor coil temp > (outdoor air
temperature + 25°F) or outdoor coil temp > 80°F or if
outdoor fan has been OFF for 30 minutes. (Fan is turned
on to allow refrigerant system to stabilize.)
• Low pressure switch is ignored for first 3 minutes during
low ambient start up. After 3 minutes, ifLPS trips, then
outdoor fan motor is turned off for 10 minutes, with the
compressor running. If LPS closes within 10 minutes
then cooling continues with the outdoor fan cycling per
the coil temperature routine listed above for the remainder
of the cooling cycle. If the LPS does not close within 10
minutes, then the normal LPS trip response (shut down
cooling operation and generate LPS trip error) will occur.
Defrost
This control offers 5 possible defrost interval times: 30. 60, 90,
120 minutes, or AUTO.
On 25HNA6 models, these are selected by dip switches on the
unit control board or by the Infinity Control User Interface. The
Infinity Control selection overrides the control board dip switch
settings.
On 25HNA9 , the defrost interval times: 30, 60, 90, and 120 -
minutes or AUTO are selected by the Infinity Control User
Interface (the dip switches are not used.)
AUTO defrost adjusts the defrost interval time based on the last
defrost time as follows:
• When defrost time <3 minutes, the next defrost
interval= 120 minutes.
• When defrost time 3-5 minutes, the next defrost
interval=90 minutes.
• When defrost time 5-7 minutes, the next defrost
interval=60 minutes.
• When defrost time >7 minutes, the next defrost
interval=30 minutes.
The control board accumulates compressor run time. As the
accumulated run time approaches the selected defrost interval
time, the control board monitors the coil temperature sensor for a
defrost demand. If a defrost demand exists, a defrost cycle will be
initiated at the end of the selected time interval. A defrost demand
exists when the coil temperature is at or below 32°F for 4
minutes during the interval.
The defrost cycle is terminated when the coil temperature reaches
65°F or 10 minutes has passed.
If the coil temperature does not reach 32°F within the interval,
the interval timer will be reset and start over.
• Upon initial power up the first defrost interval is
defaulted to 30 minutes. Remaining intervals are at
selected times.
• Defrost is only allowed to occur below 50°F outdoor
ambient temperature.
11
n
Defrost Hold
On 25HNA6 models, in a non-comnaunicating system, if the
thermostat becomes satisfied (Y1 or Y1 and Y2) before the
defrost cycle is terminated, the control will "Hold" in defrost
mode and finish the defrost cycle on the next call for heat.
On 25HNA6 models, with communicating Infinity Control and
all 25HNA9 models, defrost hold is not needed in a
communicating system because the User Interface will complete
the defrost cycle before shutting down the system.
Forced Defrost
On 25HNA6 models with non-communicating (non-Infinity)
control, forced defrost can be initiated by manually shorting the
2-pin header labeled FORCED DEFROST (see Fig 9) on the
control board for 5 seconds then releasing.
On 25HNA6 and 25HNA9 with communicating (Infinity)
control, forced defrost is initiated with the User Interface.
On all models, during a Forced Defrost:
• If coil temperature is at defrost temperature of 32°K
and outdoor air temperature is below 50°K a full
defrost sequence will occur.
• If coil temperature or outdoor air temperature do not
meet the above requirements, an abbreviated 30 second
defrost will occur.
Quiet Shift
Quiet Shift is a field selectable defrost mode which may eliminate
occasional noise that could be heard at the start of the defrost
cycle and restarting of the heating cycle. On 25HNA6 models
with non-communicating system, this feature must be enabled by
selecting the 3rd position of the 3-position dip switch. For
25HNA6 and 25HNA9 models with communicating (Infinity)
systems, it must be enabled at the User Interface. When activated,
the following sequence of operation will occur. Reversing valve
will energize and compressor will turn off for 30 seconds, then
turn back on to complete defrost. At the end of the defrost cycle.
the reversing valve de-energizes, compressor will turn off for
another 30 seconds, and the fan will turn off for 40 seconds,
before starting in the heating mode.
Liquid Line Solenoid Accessory
In heat pump long-line applications, a liquid line solenoid is
required to control refrigerant migration in the heating mode. The
solenoid should be installed near the outdoor unit with the arrow
facing the outdoor unit. This is the direction of flow control. See
application manual for long-line application details.
Accesso D, Liquid Solenoid with Infinity Communicating
Control: When using the Infinity control, the liquid line
solenoid output is provided at the Y1 connection. Connect the
solenoid as shown in the wiring label diagram. This is a 24vac
output that is energized whenever the compressor is energized. It
closes, in the compressor off mode. to prevent refrigerant
migration into the unit through the liquid line.
On 25HNA6 Models with Accessory Liquid Solenoid Using a
Non-Communicating Thermostat: The liquid solenoid is
connect to the Y1 and C terminal connections. The liquid
solenoid closes, in the compressor off mode. to prevent
refrigerant migration into the unit through the liquid line.
STEP 15 --Check Charge
Unit Charge
Factory charge and charging method are shown on unit
information plate. Charge Puron refrigerant units with cylinder in
inverted position and a commercial-type metering device in
manifold hose. Charge refrigerant into suction line.
NOTE: If subcooling charging conditions are not favorable.
charge must be weighed in accordance with unit rating plate,
_+0.6 oz./ft, of 3/8-in. liquid line above or below 15 ft..
respectively. Favorable conditions fall within the ranges given on
the charging chart on the outdoor unit plate.
EXAMPLE:
To calculate additional charge required for a25-ft. line set:
25 ft. -15 ft. =10 ft. X0.6 oz./ft. =6 oz. of additional charge.
Cooling Only Procedure
This system requires charging by the subcooling method.
1. On all unites, operate unit aminimum of 10 minutes in
high stage before checking charge.
On 25HNA6 models, charging in low stage may cause
compressor chattering and possible damage to the
compressor.
2. Measure liquid service valve pressure by attaching an
accurate gage to service port.
3. Measure liquid line temperature by attaching an accurate
thermistor type or electronic thermometer to liquid line
near outdoor coil.
4. Refer to unit rating plate for required subcooling
temperature. Subcooling amount is for high stage
operation.
5. Refer to Table 3. Find the point where required subcooling
temperature intersects measured liquid service valve
pressure.
6. To obtain required subcooling temperature at a specific
liquid line pressure, add refrigerant if liquid line
temperature is higher than indicated or reclaim refrigerant
if temperature is lower. Allow a tolerance of _+3°F.
12
Heating Check Chart Procedure
To check system operation during heating cycle, refer to the Heat
Pump Charging Instructions label on outdoor unit. This chart
indicates whether a correct relationship exists between system
operating pressure and air temperature entering indoor and
outdoor units. If pressure and temperature do not match on chart,
system refrigerant charge may not be correct. Do not use chart to
adjust refrigerant charge.
NOTE: In heating mode, check refrigerant charge only when
pressures are stable. If in doubt, remove charge and weigh in
correct refrigerant charge.
NOTE: When charging is necessary during heating season,
charge must be weighed in accordance with unit rating plate,
_+0.6 oz./ft, of 3/8-in. liquid line above or below 15 ft.,
respectively.
EXAMPLE:
To calculate additional charge required for a 25-ft. line set:
25 ft. - 15 ft. = 10 ft. X 0.6 oz./ft. = 6 oz. of additional charge.

MAJOR COMPONENTS
2-Stage Control Board
The HP control board controls the following functions:
• High and low stage compressor contactor operation
• Outdoor fan motor operation
• Reversing valve operation
• Defrost operation
• Low ambient cooling
• Crankcase heater operation
• Compressor external protection
• Pressure switch monitoring
• Time Delays
• On 25HNA6 models, high and low stage start relay and
capacitor operation (Bristol only)
Field Connections
On 25HNA6 models with non-communicating (non-Infinity)
System, the two-stage control receives 24vac low-voltage
control system inputs through the R, C, Y1, Y2 and O
connections located at the bottom of the control board (see Fig.
9.) On a non-communicating system, output W1 is connected at
the bottom of the control board for auxiliary heat.
On 25HNA6 models with communicating system and all
25HNA9 models, use the ABCD Infinity Connections.
Two Stage Compressor
The two stage compressor contains motor windings that provide
2-pole (3500 RPM) operation. Refer to Table 4 for correct
winding resistance.
Compressor Internal Relief
The compressor is protected by an internal pressure relief (IPR)
which relieves discharge gas into the compressor shell when
differential between suction and discharge pressure exceeds
500-550 psi on 25HNA6 models and 550-625 psi on 25HNA9
models. The compressor is also protected by an internal overload
attached to motor windings.
Compressor Control Contactors
The contactor(s) have a 24volt coil. The electronic control board
controls the operation of the appropriate contactor.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Systems Communication Failure
If communication with the Infinity control is lost with the User
Interface, the control will flash the appropriate fault code. (See
Table 5.) Check the wiring to the UI and the indoor and outdoor
units.
Model Plug
The control board must have a valid model plug to operate. If a
valid model plug is not detected, it will not operate and the
control will flash the appropriate fault code, shown in Table 5.
Pressure Switch Protection
The outdoor unit is equipped with high- and low-pressure
switches. If the control senses the opening of ahigh or low
pressure switch, it will respond as follows:
1. De-energize the appropriate compressor contactor
2. Keep the outdoor fan operating for 15 minutes
3. Display the appropriate fault code (see Table 5)
4. After a 15 minute delay, if there is a call for cooling or
heating and LPS or HPS is reset, the appropriate
compressor contactor is energized.
5. If LPS or HPS has not closed after a 15 minute delay, the
outdoor fan is turned off. If the open switch closes anytime
after the 15 minute delay, then resume operation with a
call for cooling or heating.
6. If LPS or HPS trips 3 consecutive cycles, the unit
operation is locked out for 4 hours.
7. In the event of a high-pressure switch trip or
high-pressure lockout, check the refrigerant charge,
outdoor fan operation, and outdoor coil (in cooling) for
airflow restrictions, or indoor airflow in heating.
8. In the event of a low-pressure switch trip or low-pressure
lockout, check the refrigerant charge and indoor airflow
(cooling) and outdoor fan operation and outdoor coil in
heating.
Control Fault
If the outdoor unit control board has failed, the control will flash
the appropriate fault code (see Table 5). The control board should
be replaced.
Brown-Out Protection
If the line voltage is less than 187v for at least 4 seconds, the
appropriate compressor contactor and fan relay are de-energized.
Compressor and fan operation are not allowed until voltage is a
minimum of 190v. The control will flash the appropriate fault
code (see Table 5).
230V Line (Power Disconnect) Detection
If there is no 230v at the compressor contactor(s) when the indoor
unit is powered and cooling or heating demand exists, the
appropriate fault code is displayed. Verify the disconnect is dosed
and 230v wiring is connected to the unit.
Compressor Voltage Sensing
The control board input terminals labeled VS. VR and L2 on
25HNA6 models and VS and L2 on 25HNA9 models (see Fig. 9)
are used to detect compressor voltage status, and alert the user of
potential problems. The control continuously monitors the high
voltage on the run capacitor of the compressor motor. Voltage
should be present any time the compressor contactor is energized.
and voltage should not be present when the contactor is
de-energized.
14
ContactorShorted Detection
If there is compressor voltage sensed when there is no demand for
compressor operation, the contactor may be stuck closed or there
may be a wiring error. The control will flash the appropriate fault
code.
25HNA6 Models_ Compressor Thermal Cutout
The control senses the compressor voltage at VR and VS. When
starting or running, a phase difference of the voltages on the
inputs will indicate the thermal protector is closed. If the phase
difference is 5 degrees or less for 10 seconds, the internal
protector is open. The control de-energizes the appropriate
compressor contactor for 15 minutes, but continues to operate the
outdoor fan. The control Status LED will flash the appropriate
code shown in table 5. After 15 minutes, with a call for low or
high stage cooling or heating, the appropriate compressor
contactor is energized. If the thermal protector has not re-set, the
outdoor fan is turned off. If the call for cooling or heating
continues, the control will energize the compressor contactor
every 15 minutes. If the thermal protector closes, (at the next 15
minute interval check), the unit will resume operation.
If the thermal cutout trips for three consecutive cycles, then unit
operation is locked out for 4 hours and the appropriate fault code
is displayed.
25HNA9 Compressor Thermal Cutout
If the control senses the compressor voltage after start-up, and is
then absent for 10 consecutive seconds while cooling or heating
demand exists, the thermal protector is open. The control
de-energizes the compressor contactor for 15 minutes, but
continues to operate the outdoor fan. The control Status LED
will flash the appropriate code shown in table 5. After 15
minutes, with a call for low or high stage cooling or heating, the
compressor contactor is energized. If the thermal protector has
not re-set, the outdoor fan is turned off. If the call for cooling or
heating continues, the control will energize the compressor
contactor every 15 minutes. If the thermal protector closes. (at
the next 15 minute interval check), the unit will resume operation.
If the thermal cutout trips for three consecutive cycles, then unit
operation is locked out for 4 hours and the appropriate fault code
is displayed.
Low- or High Contactor Open (25HNA6 models) /No 230V at
Compressor Contractor (25HNA9 models)
If the compressor voltage is not sensed when the compressor
should be starting, the appropriate contactor may be stuck open or
there is a wiring error. The control will flash the appropriate fault
code. Check the contactor and control box wiring.
25HNA6 Models Only - Compressor Start Detection on
Bristol Models Only
In low stage, if the specified start voltage at VR terminal is not
achieved, the start relay is de-energized after 1 second and the
control will flash the appropriate fault code.
In high stage, if the specified start voltage at VS terminal is not
achieved, the start relay is de-energized after 1 second and the
control will flash the appropriate fault code.
If the specified start voltage is not achieved for 3 consecutive low
stage starts, low stage operation is locked out for 30 minutes. If
the specified start voltage is not achieved for 3 consecutive high
stage starts, high stage operation is locked out for 30 minutes.
The control will flash the appropriate fault code.
Troubleshooting 25HNA6 units for pl_oper switching between
low & hiuh staues
Check the suction and liquid pressures at the service valves.
Suction pressure should be reduced by 5-10% when switching
from low to high capacity. There should be a10-20% increase in
liquid pressure when switching from low to high capacity.
Compressor current should increase 100-250% when switching
from low to high stage.
Troubleshooting 25HNA9 units for proper switching between
low & hiuh staues
Check the suction pressures at the service valves. Suction
pressure should be reduced by 3-10% when switching from low
to high capacity.
NOTE: The liquid pressures are very similar between low and
high stage operation, so liquid pressure should not be used for
troubleshooting.
Compressor current should increase 20-45% when switching
from low to high stage. The compressor solenoid when
energized in high stage, should measure 24vac.
Temperature Thermistors
Thermistors are electronic devices which sense temperature. As
the temperature increases, the resistance decreases. Thermistors
are used to sense outdoor air (OAT) and coil temperature (OCT).
Refer to Fig. 12 for resistance values versus temperature.
If the outdoor air or coil thermistor should fail. the control will
flash the appropriate fault code. (See Table 5.)
IMPORTANT: The outdoor air thermistor and coil thermistor
should be factory mounted in the final locations. Check to
insure thermistors are mounted properly per Fig. 10 and Fig.
11.
Thermistor Sensor Comparison
The control continuously monitors and compares the outdoor air
temperature sensor and outdoor coil temperature sensor to ensure
proper operating conditions. The comparison is:
• In cooling if the outdoor air sensor indicates >- 10_'F
warmer than the coil sensor (or) the outdoor air sensor
indicates >-20°F cooler than the coil sensor, the sensors
are out of range.
• In heating if the outdoor air sensor indicates ->35 °F
warmer than the coil sensor (or) the outdoor air sensor
indicates >-10°F cooler than the coil sensor, the sensors
are out of range.
If the sensors are out of range, the control will flash the
appropriate fault code as shown in Table 5.
The thermistor comparison is not performed during low ambient
cooling or defrost operation.
Failed Thermistor Default Operation
Factory defaults have been provided in the event of failure of
outdoor air thermistor and/or coil thermistor.
If the OAT sensor should fail, low ambient cooling will not be
allowed and the one-minute outdoor fan off delay will not occur.
Defrost will be initiated based on coil temperature and time.
If the OCT sensor should fail, low ambient cooling will not be
allowed. Defrost will occur at each time interval during heating
operation, but will terminate after 5 minutes.
If there is a thermistor out of range error, defrost will occur at
each time interval during heating operation, but will terminate
after 5 minutes.
Count the number of short and long flashes to determine the
appropriate flash code. Table 5 gives possible causes and actions
related to each error.

Status (:odes
Table 5 shows the status codes flashed by the amber status light. Most system problems can be diagnosed by reading the status code as
flashed by the amber status light on the control board.
The codes are flashed by a series of short and long flashes of the status light. The short flashes indicate the first digit in the status code.
followed by long flashes indicating the second digit of the error code. The short flash is 0.25 seconds ON and the long flash is 1.0 second
ON. Time between flashes is 0.25 seconds. Time between short flash and first long flash is 1.0 second. Time between code repeating is 2.5
seconds with LED OFF.
EXAMPLE:
3 short flashes followed by 2 long flashes indicates a 32 code. Table 5 shows this to be low pressure switch open.

PURON®(R-410A)REFRIGERANTQUICK REFERENCE GUIDE
• Puron refrigerant operates at 50-70 percent higher pressures than R-22. Be sure that servicing equipment and replacement
components are designed to operate with Puron refrigerant
• Puron refrigerant cylinders are rose colored.
• Recovery cylinder service pressure rating must be 400 psig, DOT 4BA400 or DOT BW400.
• Puron refrigerant systems should be charged with liquid refrigerant. Use a commercial type metering device in the manifold hose
when charging into suction line with compressor operating
• Manifold sets should be 700 psig high side and 180 psig low side with 550 psig low-side retard.
• Use hoses with 700 psig service pressure rating.
• Leak detectors should be designed to detect HFC refrigerant.
• Puron refrigerant, as with other HFCs. is only compatible with POE oils.
• Vacuum pumps will not remove moisture from oil.
• Do not use liquid-line filter driers with rated working pressures less than 600 psig.
• Do not leave Puron suction line filter driers in line longer than 72 hours.
• Do not install a suction-line filter drier in liquid line.
• POE oils absorb moisture rapidly. Do not expose oil to atmosphere.
• POE oils may cause damage to certain plastics and roofing materials.
• Wrap all filter driers and service valves with wet cloth when brazing.
• A factory approved liquid-line filter drier is required on every unit.
• Do NOT use an R-22 TXV.
• If indoor unit is equipped with an R-22 TXV or piston metering device, it must be changed to a hard shutoff Puron TXV.
• Never open system to atmosphere while it is under a vacuum.
• When system must be opened for service, recover refrigerant, evacuate then break vacuum with dry nitrogen and replace filter driers.
Evacuate to 500 microns prior to recharging.
• Do not vent Puron refrigerant into the atmosphere.
• Do not use capillary tube coils.
• Observe all warnings, cautions, and bold text.
•All indoor coils must be installed with ahard shutoff Puron TXV metering device.
