Step 10. System Startup
Assure voltage to compressor does not drop below minimum allowable voltage
(e.g. 187 volts for 230/208-3-60, 415 volts for 460/3/60, 518 volts for 575/3/60)
during the period the compressor is trying to start. If a low voltage or voltage
imbalance condition exists, the electrical problem must be determined and
corrected prior to operating the unit.

In a 3-phase system, excessive voltage imbalance between phases will cause
motors to overheat and compressors to fail. Maximum allowable imbalance is

operating.

Solutions to Voltage Imbalance:
The cause for a voltage imbalance problem can originate at the power company or
can be caused inside the building. Try the following on-site solution to determine if
the problem can be easily resolved.

supply.
CAUTION: Be sure to connect pressure gauges to the suction
and discharge lines before system startup so that compressor
rotation can be checked immediately. Scroll compressors will be
destroyed if allowed to operate in the wrong direction. See Hazard
Levels, page 2.
