compressor operating envelope.

The Headmaster Control Valve has a dual pressure 

setting feature which allows a choice between two 

fixed  settings;  The  DS  element  has  an  internal 

spring which is set to maintain the lower setting. 

The element is then charged with air to obtain the 

higher setting (180 psig) and the capillary tube is 

pinched and fused. If the capillary tube is left intact, 

the valve will maintain a 180 psig setting. If the 

capillary tube is clipped and fused again, the valve 

will maintain a 100 psig setting.

It is important to fuse the capillary tube tip after 

clipping to prevent moisture from entering the 

element.

Tubing Considerations – Proper tube design must be 

taken into consideration when designing the tubing 

connecting the scroll to the remaining system. The 

tubing should provide enough “flexibility” to allow normal 

starting and stopping of the compressor without exerting 

excessive stress on the tube joints. In addition, it is 

desirable to design tubing with a natural frequency away 

from the normal running frequency of the compressor.  

Failure to do this can result in tube resonance and 

unacceptable tubing life. 

Figure 3

 shows examples of 

acceptable tubing configurations.

CAUTION

These examples are intended only as guidelines to 

depict the need for flexibility in tube designs.  In order to 

properly determine if a design is appropriate for a given 

application, samples should be tested and evaluated for 

stress under various conditions of use including voltage, 

frequency, and load fluctuations, and shipping vibration. 

The guidelines above may be helpful; however, testing 

should be performed for each system designed.

Rack Applications

ZS**KAE Compressors are not approved for rack or 

parallel applications because the compressors do not 

have sight glasses and cannot be equipped with oil 

equalization devices. 

ASSEMBLY LINE PROCEDURES 
Unbrazing System Components

CAUTION

If the refrigerant charge is removed from a scroll unit 

by bleeding the high side only, it is sometimes possible 

for the scrolls to seal, preventing pressure equalization 

1105

 for proper system evacuation procedures.

ZS**KAE COMPRESSORS IN COPELAND

 

CONDENSING UNITS

The new FFAP Copeland condensing units will offer the 

latest technology utilizing the efficient ZS**KAE scroll 

product along with incorporating the Emerson Electronic 

Unit Controller (EUC) on all models. 

In 

Table 7 

are the approved refrigerants along with the 

minimum operating temperature ranges based on the 

refrigerants applied.

Performance data along with the applicable 

nomenclature information can be found on the www.

emersonclimate website.

Features

All condensing units come equipped from the factory 

with the Electronic Unit Controller. The controller has 

a minimum low pressure cutout setting of 0 psig. See 

Table 5

 for the recommended pressure control settings 

based on refrigerant.

Condensing Unit Mounting

For 1.3 - 4.5 H.P. refrigeration scroll condensing unit 

applications, soft mounts are recommended. See 

Figures 2A 

and

 2B

.

Bump Start Protection

 The bump start function has been enabled in the EUC 

so whenever power is applied or re-applied to the unit 

the system will energize the compressor for 2 seconds 

on and 5 seconds off. This will occur for 3 cycles, and 

then continuous power will be supplied to the system 

for normal operation. 

Brief Power Interruptions

As part of the EUC control, a two minute time delay has 

been programmed into the controller on all condensing 

units which will sense a brief power interruption and 

lock the compressor / unit out of operation for two 

minutes.

Headmaster Refrigerant Selection Instructions

Incorporated into the 

SINGLE FAN FFAP

 condensing 

unit is a dual pressure setting headmaster which will 

allow for the unit to operate in low ambient conditions 

with the approved refrigerants outlined in 

Table 1

Please follow the instructions provided below after 

the refrigerant selection is made, failure to do so will 

cause the system to operate outside of its approved
