    RTAF

    I have a Trane 410t RTAF. I have circuit 1 locked out on the HMI. As it is being repaired and is on a vaccum. I am looking to run circuit 2 but the low evap pressure on circuit 1 inhibits circuit 2 from running. I have been reading document # RTAF-SVX001P-EN and I cannot find why circuit 1 is holding off circuit 2. I have 75psia in the evap of circuit 2.

    Works as advertised, very pleasantly surprised.
    Replaced the contactor and cap preemptively since I don’t know when those were last changed as well (though I was not impressed with the mounting straps and will replace those…

  • Best way to get into the chiller side full time

    I’ve been in the HVAC/R industry for about 5 years now as a general technician and I’ve decided that I really want to start pushing my career into the chiller side but don’t know where to begin. I’ve talked with my boss about it and he’s said he’d try getting me training but the department I’m in has no senior level chiller techs or enough…

    Hello technicians,

    I am encountering an issue with a Hitachi chiller. After replacing the screw compressor and completing the installation, the unit frequently reports a “low suction line temperature” error.

    Could you please advise on how to resolve this?j

    York Centrifugal Chiller techs………On the older York YTK chillers from early 2000’s, a lot of them used the 6-spring style shaft seal. We have had a few issues with those not lasting very long; thrust is within specs ( .015 ). I want to replace the 6-spring seal with the bellows style seal; which is a conversion with new cover plate.…
