Note 1: Operation in this refrigerant dilution area is safe in air to air heat pump heating mode. For
other applications, such as AC only, review expansion device to raise superheat. A cold sump may
result in high refrigerant migration after shut down.

Accumulator
Figure 2
To prevent ooded start damage on 3 phase scrolls due to off cycle migration, the accumulator may be
congured on some systems to allow free drainage from the compressor to the accumulator during the
off cycle. When the above conguration is not possible and the unit charge is over the charge limit shown
in Table 5, a crankcase heater is required.
