TEMPERATURE and/or PRESSURE
ADJUSTMENT
All temperature and pressure sensors are factory set. If cali‑
bration is required, refer to Analog Calibration for temperature
or pressure in 090.022‑O (Quantum™LX panel).
OIL LEVEL TRANSMITTER
REPLACEMENT
The Oil Level Transmitter is located on the front of the sepa‑
rator near the bottom/center. See Figure 33.
The linear transmitter with hermetic enclosure is based on
the capacitive measuring principle. It features removable
electronics (from the sensor well) eliminating the need to
evacuate the compressor for replacement. This transmitter is
dedicated to oil level control and has no user adjustments.
1. Shut off control power.
2. Remove DIN connector plug from transmitter.
3. Loosen set screws.
4. Remove transmitter unit.
5. Install new transmitter unit.
6. Tighten set screws.
