C − Outdoor Fan Motor
All units use single−phase PSC fan motors which require a run
capacitor. In all units, the condenser fan is controlled by
the compressor contactor.
ELECTRICAL DATA tables in this manual show specifi-
cations for condenser fans used in 12HPBs.
Access to the condenser fan motor on all units is gained
by removing the seven screws securing the fan assem-
bly. See figure 10. The condenser fan motor is removed
from the fan guard by removing the four nuts found on
the top panel. If condenser fan motor must be replaced,
align fan hub flush with motor shaft. Drip loops should
be used in wiring when servicing motor.
D − Reversing Valve L1 and Solenoid
A refrigerant reversing valve with electromechanical so-
lenoid is used to reverse refrigerant flow during unit op-
eration. The reversing valve requires no maintenance. It
is not repairable. If the reversing valve has failed, it must
be replaced.
If replacement is necessary, access reversing valve by re-
moving the outdoor fan motor. Refer to figure 10.
II − REFRIGERANT SYSTEM
See figure 11 for unit refrigerant components. Refer to figure
12 and 13 for refrigerant flow in the heating and cooling
modes. The reversing valve is energized during cooling
demand and during defrost.
