Outside the terminal box for A3 regrigerants

If the SE-i1 is used with refrigerants classified as A3 (e.g. propane) and A2, it must not be installed inside the terminal box of the compressor

It must be installed outside the terminal box of the compressor, either in an external terminal box (at least IP54), or inside the system's switch cabinet.

Authorized staff

All work done on the products and the systems in which they are or will be installed may only be performed by qualified and authorised staff who have been trained and instructed in all work. The qualification and competence of the qualified staff must correspond to the local regulations and guidelines.

Attach terminal box cover

Attach T joint for mounting the high pressure transmitter

The connection positions for pressure transmitters at the CS. series vary depending on compressor size. The following videos show the positions for a CS.85 compressor.

Attach T joint for mounting the low pressure transmitter

The connection positions for pressure transmitters at the CS. series vary depending on compressor size. The following videos show the positions for a CS.85 compressor.

Mount the low pressure transmitter

Attach cable of low pressure transmitter

Mount the high pressure transmitter

Attach cable of high pressure transmitter

Create a vacuum at the high pressure side (at least -0,5 bar)

This ensures that no oil leaks through the connection when the discharge gas temperature sensor gets replaced.

Remove existing discharge gas temperature sensor (PTC) and install new discharge gas temperature sensor (NTC)

Mount new discharge gas temperature sensor (NTC)

Switch off and remove vacuum pump

Attach cable of new discharge gas temperature sensor (NTC) and screw in by hand
