added to reach the total capacity of the unit. See “SPECI-

WARNING
Electrical shock hazard. Compressor must be
grounded. Do not operate without protective cover
over terminals. Disconnect power before removing
protective cover. Discharge capacitors before
servicing unit. Failure to follow these precautions
could cause electrical shock resulting in injury or
death.
Each compressor is energized by a corresponding com-
pressor contactor.
NOTE-Refer to the wiring diagram section for specic unit
operation.
If a compressor replacement is necessary, call 1-800-453-

IMPORTANT
Some scroll compressors have an internal vacuum
protector that will unload scrolls when suction
pressure goes below 20 psig. A hissing sound
will be heard when the compressor is running
unloaded. Protector will reset when low pressure
in system rises above 40 psig. DO NOT REPLACE
COMPRESSOR.
2-Crankcase Heaters HR1, HR2, HR5 & HR11
All LGM units use insertion type heaters. Heater HR1 is
installed around compressor B1, heater HR2 compressor
B2, HR5 compressor B13 and HR11 compressor B20.

with the contactor coils through the A55 Unit Controller
The Unit Controller A55 governs the low pressure switches
by shunting the switches during start up until pressure is
stabilized. After the shunt period, the control has a three-
strike counter, during a single thermostat demand, before
the compressor( s) is locked out. The control is reset by
breaking and remaking the thermostat demand or manu-
ally resetting the control.
