16-Variable Frequency Drive A96
MSAV® units are equipped with a VFD which alters the
supply power frequency and voltage to the blower motor.
Blower speed is staged depending on the compressor
stages, heating demand, or ventilation demand. The
variable sheave on the blower motor. Part load cooling
upper control panel.
17-Inverter Default Relay K232
Relay is used in optional MSAV units and is a two-pole,
double-throw relay with a 24VAC coil. K232 is energized
VFD fails, the B-C contact will open and de-energize the
K232 coil and cut the 24VAC power to the thermostat and
18-Phase Monitor A42
Phase monitor detects the phasing of incoming power. If
the incoming power is out of phase or if any of the three
phases are lost, an indicator LED on the phase monitor
will turn red and the unit will not start. In normal operation
with correct incoming power phasing, the LED will be
19-VFD Control Board A183
VFD control board A183 is a solid-state control board
powered with 24VDC from the variable frequency drive
from the thermostat, ignition control and economizer
modules to determine blower speeds and damper
minimum positions. For more information on the A183,
refer to the MSAV Start Up section. A183 is located on the
left side of the control area.
B-Cooling Components
IMPORTANT
The Clean Air Act of 1990 bans the intentional
venting of refrigerant (CFC’s and HCFC’s) as of July
1, 1992. Approved methods of recovery, recycling
or reclaiming must be followed. Fines and/or
incarceration may be levied for non-compliance.
All units use independent cooling circuits consisting of
separate compressors, condenser coils and evaporator
fans are used in all units. All units are equipped with belt-
drive blowers which draw air across the evaporator during
unit operation.
Cooling may be supplemented by an optional factory-
type and are stacked. Each evaporator is equipped with
is protected by a freezestat (on each evaporator) and a
high pressure switch (on each discharge line). Optional
additional compressor protection.
1-Compressors B1, B2, B13 (all units) & B20 (300S
only)
All units use scroll compressors. KGC180S, 210S and
240S use three compressors and KGC300S units use
four compressors. All compressors are equipped with
independent cooling circuits. Compressor capacity may
vary from stage to stage. In all cases, the capacity of each
compressor is added to reach the total capacity of the unit.
See “SPECIFICATIONS” and “ELECTRICAL DATA” (table
of contents) or compressor nameplate for compressor
WARNING
Electrical shock hazard. Compressor must be
grounded. Do not operate without protective
coverover 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
compressor contactor.
NOTE - Refer to the wiring diagram section for specic
unit operation.
2-High Pressure Switches S4, S7, S28 (all units), S96

will reset when discharge pressure drops below 475 + 20
psig (3275 + 138 kPa) and the respective compressor will
restart.
has temperature switch and head pressure controller. This
kit allows mechanical cooling operation by maintaining
liquid pressures at low outdoor temperatures, by stopping
or slowing the outdoor fans.
180S & 210S Units - S201
When ambient temperature drops below 55°F,S201
temperature switch opens to de-energize K10relay coil,
de-energizing condenser fans 1 (B4) and 2 (B5). The liquid
line pressure transducers A188 convert the pressure to an
analog signal which is sent to the head pressure control
(A190). The head pressure control provides a variable
output which slows condenser fan 3 (B21) operation at
lower ambient temperatures
