Pump Out (SE2, Po)
The Pump Out function pushes refrigerant from a malfunctioning outdoor unit to other outdoor
units, indoor units, and the building piping system. Use this function if an outdoor unit com-
pressor fails, if a part is defective and needs to be replaced, or if there is a leak. In systems
with short piping systems, the refrigerant amount that can be pumped from the outdoor unit
will be limited, and additional refrigerant storage containers will need to be used. Set Pump
Out mode on the master outdoor unit, but all outdoor units will function while the system is in
Pump Out. For use on both heat pump and heat recovery systems.
• Use the Pump Out function while ambient conditions are within the manufacturer’s operating temperature ranges:
Indoor Units = 50~89.6°F; Outdoor Units = 41~104°F.
•
Do not run the indoor units in thermo off mode during Pump Out (in case low pressure does not satisfy levels).
• Maximum operation time of Pump Out takes two (2) to five (5) minutes after the compressor starts.
1. If low pressure falls below 33.2 psi, the system will automatically turn off. Immediately close the vapor service valve of all outdoor units
(Heat Pump systems only). (See figures above.)
2. If low pressure falls below 44.5 psi (light will blink), immediately close the vapor service valves of all outdoor units.
