CONTROL CIRCUIT:

  • An integrated circuit board shall provide control of the indoor blower motor, the compressor, the high refrigerant pressure switch, the low refrigerant pressure switch, compressor short cycle protection, and the defrost cycle. In addition, for heat pumps with electric resistance second stage heat, the circuit board shall control the operation of the electric heat during the defrost cycle and when the compressor is operating. The board will have LED’s to indicate power status and high or low refrigerant pressure lockout. A .03 to 10 minute delay on break timer will provide compressor short cycle protection. The board will monitor the status of the high refrigerant pressure switch and the low refrigerant pressure switch. If either of the inputs recognize a fault, the compressor will turn off and the anti-short cycle delay will be initiated. If any of these faults occur twice on a call for mechanical heating or cooling, the control will prevent the compressor from operating until power is manually reset to the heat pump. The control will also monitor the defrost sensor. If the defrost sensor senses a temperature of 32°F (0°C) or below while in the heating mode, it will initiate a pin selectable 30, 60, or 90 minute time period. At the end of the time period, if the defrost sensor is still 32°F (0°C) or below, the reversing valve will be energized. The defrost cycle will terminate on either time or temperature. The maximum time of the defrost cycle is 10 minutes. However, if at any time during the defrost cycle the defrost sensor registers a temperature of 75F (10°C) or higher, the defrost cycle will be terminated.
  • The board shall have pin type, field selectable jumper “YES / NO” to either allow electric heat and the compressor to operate simultaneously or (“S” circuit”) to prevent the electric heat and the compressor from operating simultaneously.
  • The board shall have pin type, field selectable jumper “YES / NO” to either allow electric heat and the compressor to operate during the defrost cycle or to prevent the electric heat and the compressor from operating during the defrost cycle. If the electric heat is not enabled during compressor operation as described in 10.1, the electric heat will not operate during the defrost mode.
  • The circuit board shall have a pin type, field selectable jumper to control operation of the motorized fresh air damper (Ventilation option “B”).
