fill the compressor crankcase, connect the delivery
tube of the YORK Hand Oil Pump, YORK Part No.
470-10654 or equal to the compressor oil charging
and drain valve. Expel all air from the delivery tube
by pumping it full of oil, allowing a few drops to drip
out before tightening the flare nut to the oil charg-
ing valve. Then open the oil charging valve and
pump oil into the crankcase to the proper level. It is
necessary that the suction end of the hand oil pump
be kept submerged under the oil level in the con-
tainer at all times, to avoid entrance of air into the
compressor.
I. Before opening the suction or discharge stop val-
ves, connect a vacuum pump to the pump-out port
in the discharge stop valve. (Pump-out port is port
on valve stem side of valve.) With the vacuum line

Review the recorded data and check any suspicious
values using test equipment that is calibrated accurate-
ly (pressure gauges, temperature probes, digital volt
meters etc.) to verify the Data Display Code readings in
a no-fault condition. Note any significant difference.
Check that all sensors are properly installed and that
the wiring to the sensors is not cut or shorted. Check
that all manual stop valves on unit are open.
shut-off valve open, run the vacuum pump until a
vacuum of at least 1000 microns is reached. Stop
the vacuum pump, close the shut-off valve and open
the discharge valve fully before disconnecting the
line from the vacuum pump. Disconnect the vacuum
pump and replace the plug in the pump-out port.
NOTE: If suction or discharge valves are not seated
properly, a 1000 micron vacuum can not be ob-
tained. Do not evacuate for long periods of time.
J. Be sure both discharge and suction stop valves are
open before operating the unit.
4. Suction and Discharge Valves – The condition of the
suction and discharge valves should be checked by
YORK service personnel.
DUAL CIRCUIT UNITS
TROUBLESHOOTING
Each YCA (Style D) chillers is equipped with a micro-
processor control panel (sometimes referred to as a
“Smart Panel”. The panel not only serves as a means of
accurate, reliable chiller operation; but also as a valu-
able service (or troubleshooting) aid. To obtain the great-
est benefit from the panel, the operator or service tech-
nician must be familiar with the way it operates. The
following steps are suggested:
1. Study (and restudy) the preceding pages on “Unit
Controls and Operation”.
2. Observe the panel frequently during normal opera-
tion.
3. Keep a daily “log sheet” of normal operating condi-
tions such as pressures, temperatures, motor cur-
rent, etc. See list at right.
4. Do not attempt to service or diagnose the unit unless
you have completed the above steps.
This procedure will help you to make a prompt, accu-
rate diagnosis of most operating problems.
The following troubleshooting chart lists some common
problems, their cause and suggested solution(s). Prob-
lems beyond the scope of this manual should be re-
ferred to the local YORK Service Representative.
GENERAL
After a fault, before starting any service, or attempting
to correct an operating problem the operator should “dial
up” the Data Display Codes and complete the following
chart (also refer to page 50).
DO THIS BEFORE CHANG-
ING THE POSITION OF ANY TOGGLE SWITCHES OR
RECYCLING POWER. CHANGING THE POSITION OF
THE SYSTEM TOGGLE SWITCHES OR RECYCLING
POWER WILL RESULT IN LOSS OF ALL STORED
DATA AT THE TIME OF THE FAULT. ALSO NOTE THE
POSITION OF THE SYSTEM # 1 LEAD/LAG SWITCH.
