10HP SERIES UNITS
The 10HP is a high-efficiency residential
split-system heat pump. Extra large outdoor coil,
coil circuiting and high outdoor coil air volume
result in a high SEER rating (minimum of 10.0).
10HP12 through 10HP48 units are designed for use
with an expansion valve or RFCIII system in the
indoor unit. 10HP60 units are designed for use with
an expansion valve only in the indoor unit.
All compressors are hermetically sealed for
trouble-free operation and long service life.
Compressor components are spring mounted within
the sealed housing. The compressor is installed in the
unit on resilient rubber mounts to assure quiet,
vibration-free operation. A built-in limit protects the
compressor from excessive current and temperatures.
10HP18 through 10HP60 models are furnished with
crankcase heaters as standard equipment. The heater
prevents liquid from accumulating in the compressor.
The heater is temperature-actuated and operates only
when required. A crankcase heater for 10HP12 units is
optional, but suction accumulator is factory installed.
Several models are available in sizes ranging from 1
through 5 tons.
This manual is divided into sections which discuss the
major components, refrigerant system, charging
procedure, maintenance, and operation sequence.
Canadian specifications are marked (CAN).
All specifications in this manual are subject to change.

Shock Hazard
All 10HP units use single-pole
contactors. One leg of compressor,
capacitor and outdoor fan are
connected to line voltage at all
times. Potential exists for electrical
shock resulting in injury or death.
Remove all power at disconnect
before servicing.
Can cause personal injury or death.
1 – Compressor Contactor K1
The compressor is energized by a contactor located in
the control box. See figure 2. Contactors are SPST in
single phase units and 3PST in three phase units. K1 is
energized by the indoor thermostat terminal Y (24V).
10HP units are not equipped with a line voltage to 24V
transformer. All 24 VAC controls are powered by the
indoor unit. Refer to unit wiring diagram.
2 – Dual Capacitor C12
The compressor and fan in 10HP units use permanent
split capacitor motors. The capacitor is located inside the
unit control box (see figure 2). A single “dual” capacitor
(C12) is used for both the fan motor and the compressor
(see unit wiring diagram). The fan side and the
compressor side of the capacitor have different MFD
ratings. See table 1 for dual capacitor ratings.

3 – Potential Relay K31 (Start)
All 10HP units use a potential relay which controls the
operation of the starting circuit. The potential relay is
located inside the unit control box (see figure 2). The
relay is normally closed when contactor K2 is
de-energized. When K1 energizes, the compressor
immediately begins start-up. K31 remains closed
during compressor start-up and start capacitor C7
remains in the circuit. As the compressor gains speed,
K31 is energized. When K31 energizes, the contacts
open and start capacitor C7 is taken out of the circuit.
4 – Start Capacitor C7
All 10HP units use a start capacitor (C7). C7 is located
inside the unit control box (see figure 2). C7 is wired in
parallel with the compressor side of the dual
capacitor. See table 2 for start capacitor ratings.

5 – Timed Off Control A4
A timed off control (A4) located in the control box is
used on 10HP60 units. See figure 2. The time delay is
electrically connected between thermostat terminal Y
and the compressor contactor. After cooling demand
has stopped, A4 begins counting for five minutes.
During the timing period, A4 disables the compressor
contactor. Thermostat demand will have no effect on
the unit.The unit cannot operate. After the delay, the
compressor contactor can be energized.

Page 4
DANGER
Do not attempt to repair this control. Unsafe
operation will result. If the control has failed,
replace the control.
6 – Defrost Relay K4
The defrost relay controls defrost. The relay is a 3PDT
relay powered 24 VAC from the thermostat. K4 is
enabled during both cooling and heating modes
(except emergency heat). It is only powered when the
defrost control is calling for defrost. When energized,
the reversing valve and indoor auxiliary heat are
energized. Simultaneously, the outdoor fan is
de-energized. K4 latches in for the duration of the
defrost period. Refer to unit wiring diagram and
operation sequence in the back of this manual.
7 – Defrost Control CMC1
The CMC1 defrost control (figure 4) is a solid state control
manufactured by Hamilton Standard. The control
provides automatic switching from normal heating
operation to defrost mode and back. The control
provides 14 minute defrost periods at 30, 60 or 90 minute
field changeable intervals. The control monitors
thermostat demand and “holds” the timer in place
between thermostat demand. A set of diagnostic pins are
also provided for troubleshooting the unit.
The control contains a solid state timer which switches
an external defrost relay through 1/4” male spades
mounted on the control’s circuit board. When the
defrost thermostat closes (call for defrost), the defrost
timer initiates a 30, 60 or 90 minute (depending on how
the control is preset) timing sequence. If the defrost
thermostat remains closed when the timing sequence
ends, the defrost relay is energized and defrost begins.

timings of each pin. The defrost interval can be field
changed to 30, 60 or 90 minutes. The defrost period
(14 minutes) cannot be changed. To change the
interval between defrosts, simply remove the
jumper from the pin it is connected to and
reconnect the jumper to one of the other available
pins (see figure 5).

3– “COM” Terminal
Terminal “COM” provides 24VAC Common.
4– “HLD” Terminal
Terminal “HLD” holds the internal timer in place
between thermostat demands and allows the unit to
continue timing upon resumption of thermostat
demand. Terminal “HLD” is connected directly to
thermostat demand.
NOTE – Hold function operates between thermostat
demands only when defrost thermostat is closed. This
is the only time that the timer is operating.

Page 5
5– “24V” Terminal
Terminal “24V” receives 24VAC from the control
transformer through the defrost thermostat. This
terminal powers the control’s internal timer and
relays. Terminal “24V” is powered only when there
is a call for defrost (defrost thermostat closed). The
timer begins timing at 0 only after terminal “24V”
receives power.
6– “OUT” Terminal
Terminal “OUT” controls defrost when connected
to one side of the defrost relay coil. An internal
relay connected to terminal “OUT” closes to allow
external defrost relay to energize and initiate
defrost. At the end of the defrost period, the
internal relay connected to terminal “OUT” opens
to de-energize the external defrost relay.
7– “TST” Pins
Each board is equipped with a set of test pins for
use in troubleshooting the unit. When jumpered
together, these pins reduce the control timing to
about 1/256 original time (see table 3 and figure 6).
IMPORTANT
Control will begin test mode only if normal load is
applied to control terminals. Do not attempt to
operate or test control out of unit.
A defrost period can last up to 14 minutes and can be
terminated two ways. If the defrost thermostat does
not open within 14 minutes after defrost begins, the
timer will de–energize the defrost relay and the unit
will resume normal operation. If the defrost
thermostat opens during the 14 minute defrost period,
the defrost relay is de–energized and the unit resumes
normal operation. Refer to figure 7.
FIGURE 6
WARNING – AVOID CONTACT WITH OTHER CONTROL
TERMINALS OR CONTROL COMPONENTS.
TO PLACE CONTROL IN TEST MODE:
1– Turn off all power to avoid damaging the circuit board.
2– Make sure all control terminals are connected as shown on
unit wiring diagram before attempting to place control in
test mode. See NOTE below.
NOTE – Control will not go into test mode when discon-
nected from unit. Unit load must be applied to control termi-
nals before the control will go into test mode.
3– Connect jumper to “TST” pins as shown.
4– Turn indoor thermostat to heat mode and adjust to highest
temperature setting.
5– Turn on power to unit.
6– See Table 3 for control timings in “TST” mode.
7– Be sure to turn off power and remove jumper when test is
complete. Turn on power and re–adjust thermostat.

1 – Rotary Compressor (10HP12 Units Only)
10HP12 units utilize a hermetically sealed rotary-type
compressor manufactured by Tecumseh Products. It is
illustrated in figure 8.
The compressor has four
moving parts: a rotor
shaft, eccentric, roller
and a blade. See figure 9.
The compressor rotor
shaft is attached directly
to the compressor motor.
The rotor shaft is
permanently attached to
an eccentric. The
eccentric is inside the
roller and as the eccentric
rotates, the roller rotates.
The spring loaded blade
is in continuous contact
with the roller. The
contact and a thin layer of
oil form a seal separating
the suction port from the discharge port at all times.

A – Service Valves
The liquid line and vapor line service valves and gauge
ports are accessible from outside of the unit. Full
service liquid and vapor line valves are used. See
figures 18 and 19. The service ports are used for leak
testing, evacuating, charging and checking charge.
1 – Liquid Line Service Valve
A full-service liquid line valve made by one of several
manufacturers may be used. All liquid line service
valves function the same way, differences are in
construction. Valves manufactured by Parker are
forged assemblies. Valves manufactured by Primore
are brazed together. Valves are not rebuildable. If a
valve has failed it must be replaced. The liquid line
service valve is illustrated in figure 18.
The valve is equipped with a service port. There is no
schrader valve installed in the liquid line service port. A
service port cap is supplied to seal off the port.
The liquid line service valve is a front and back seating
valve. When the valve is backseated the service port is
not pressurized. The service port cap can be removed
and gauge connections can be made.
CAUTION
The service port cap is used to seal the liquid line
service valve. Access to service port requires
backseating the service valve to isolate the
service port from the system. Failure to do so
will cause refrigerant leakage.

Page 9
IMPORTANT
A schrader valve is not provided on the liquid line
service port. Valve must be backseated to turn off
pressure to service port.

A full service non-backseating vapor line service valve
is used on all 10HP series units. Different manufacturers
of valves may be used. All vapor line service valves
function the same way, differences are in construction.
Valves manufactured by Parker are forged assemblies.
Valves manufactured by Primore and Aeroquip are
brazed together. Valves are not rebuildable. If a valve
has failed it must be replaced. The vapor line service
valve is illustrated in figure 19.

A – Pumping Down System
CAUTION
Deep vacuum operation (operating compressor
below 0 psig) can cause internal fusite arcing
resulting in a damaged or failed compressor. This
type of damage will result in denial of warranty
claim.
The system may be pumped down when leak checking
the line set and indoor coil or making repairs to the line
set or indoor coil.
1– Attach gauge manifold.
2– Front seat (close) liquid line valve.
3– Start outdoor unit in cooling mode.
4– Monitor suction gauge. Stop unit when 0 psig. is
reached.
5– Front seat (close) suction line valve.

Page 12
B – Evacuating the System
1– Attach gauge manifold. Connect vacuum pump (with
vacuum gauge) to center port of gauge manifold.
With both manifold service valves open, start pump
and evacuate indoor coil and refrigerant lines.
IMPORTANT
A temperature vacuum gauge, mercury vacuum
(U–tube), or thermocouple gauge should be used.
The usual Bourdon tube gauges are not accurate
enough in the vacuum range.
IMPORTANT
The compressor should never be used to evacuate
a refrigeration or air conditioning system.
2– Evacuate the system to 29 inches (737mm) vacuum.
During the early stages of evacuation, it is desirable
to stop the vacuum pump at least once to determine
if there is a rapid loss of vacuum. A rapid loss of
vacuum would indicate a leak in the system and a
repeat of the leak testing section would be necessary.
3– After evacuating system to 29 inches (737mm), close
gauge manifold valves to center port, stop vacuum
pump and disconnect from gauge manifold. Attach
an upright nitrogen drum to center port of gauge
manifold and open drum valve slightly to purge line
at manifold. Break vacuum in system with nitrogen
pressure by opening manifold high pressure valve.
Close manifold high pressure valve to center port.
4– Close nitrogen drum valve and disconnect from
gauge manifold center port. Release nitrogen
pressure from system.
5– Connect vacuum pump to gauge manifold center
port. Evacuate system through manifold service
valves until vacuum in system does not rise above
29.7 inches (754mm) mercury (5mm absolute
pressure) within a 20–minute period after stopping
vacuum pump.
6– After evacuation is complete, close manifold center
port, and connect refrigerant drum. Pressurize
system slightly with refrigerant to break vacuum.
C – Leak Testing (To Be Done Only After
Pump Down)
1– Attach gauge manifold and connect a drum of dry
nitrogen to center port of gauge manifold.
2– Open high pressure valve on gauge manifold and
pressurize line set /indoor coil to 150 psig (1034 kPa).
3– Check lines and connections for leaks.
4– Release nitrogen pressure from the system,
correct any leaks and recheck.
CAUTION
When using dry nitrogen, a pressure reducing
regulator must be used to prevent excessive
pressure in gauge manifold, connecting hoses,
and within the system. Regulator setting must not
exceed 150 psig (1034 kpa). Failure to use a
regulator can cause equipment failure resulting in
injury.
NOTE-If electronic leak detector is used, add a trace of
refrigerant to the nitrogen for detection by the leak
detector.
D – Charging
Charging must be done in the cooling mode. If system
is completely void of refrigerant, the recommended and
most accurate method of charging is to weigh the
refrigerant into the unit according to the total amount
shown on the unit nameplate and in table 8.
Separate discharge and vapor line service ports are
provided outside the unit for connection of gauge
manifold during charging procedure as well as a
suction line service port.

If weighing facilities are not available or if unit is just
low on charge, the following procedure applies. RFC
and TXV systems use different charging methods.
1 – Expansion Valve Systems
The following procedures are intended as a general
guide for use with expansion valve systems only. For
best results, indoor temperature should be between 70 °F
and 80 °F. If outdoor temperature is 60 °F (16 °C) or above
the approach method of charging is used. If outdoor
temperature is less than 60 °F (16 °C) the subcooling
method of charging is used. Slight variations in charging
temperature and pressure should be expected. Large
variations may indicate a need for further servicing.

Page 13
IMPORTANT
The following procedures require accurate
readings of ambient (outdoor) temperature, liquid
temperature and liquid pressure for proper
charging. Use a thermometer with accuracy of +2
°F and a pressure gauge with accuracy of +5 PSIG.
APPROACH METHOD (TXV SYSTEMS)
(Ambient Temperature of 60_F [16_C] or Above)
1 – Connect gauge manifold. Connect an upright
R–22 drum to center port of gauge manifold.
2 – Record outdoor air (ambient) temperature.
3 – Operate indoor and outdoor units in cooling
mode. Allow outdoor unit to run until system
pressures stabilize.
4 – Make sure thermometer well is filled with
mineral oil before checking liquid line
temperature.
5 – Place thermometer in well and read liquid line
temperature. Liquid line temperature should
be a few degrees warmer than the outdoor air
temperature. Table 9 shows how many
degrees warmer the liquid line temperature
should be.
Add refrigerant to make the liquid line
temperature cooler.
Recover refrigerant to make the liquid line
temperature warmer.

NOTE- It may be necessary to restrict air flow in order
to reach liquid pressures in the 200-250 psig range
which are required for checking charge. Block equal
sections of air intake panels as shown in figure 22,
moving obstructions sideways until liquid pressures
in the 200-250 psig range are reached.
Block outdoor coil one side at
a time with cardboard or
plastic sheets until proper
testing pressures are reached.

2 – Operate indoor and outdoor units in cooling
mode. Allow outdoor unit to run until system
pressures stabilize.
3 – Make sure thermometer well is filled with
mineral oil before checking liquid line
temperature.
4 – Read liquid line pressure and convert to
condensing temperature using temperature/
pressure conversion chart.
Condensing temperature (read from gauges)
should be a few degrees warmer than the
liquid line temperature.
5 – Place thermometer in well and read liquid line
temperature. Table 10 shows how much
warmer the condensing temperature should be.
Add refrigerant to make the liquid line
temperature cooler.
Recover refrigerant to make the liquid line
temperature warmer.

6 – When unit is properly charged liquid line
pressures should approximate those given in
table 11.
IMPORTANT
Use table 11 as a general guide for performing
maintenance checks. Table 11 is not a procedure for
charging the system. Minor variations in pressures
may be expected due to differences in installations.
Significant deviations may mean the system is not
properly charged or that a problem exists with some
component in the system. Used prudently, table 11
could serve as a useful service guide.

2 – RFCIII Systems
The system should not be charged at ambients below
60 _F (15_C). If charging below 60 _F (15_C) is required,
the recommended method of charging is to weigh the
refrigerant into the unit according to the total amount
shown on the unit nameplate and in table 8. For line sets
varying from 20 feet, refer to table 7 for refrigerant charge
adjustment. If ambient temperature is above 60 _F (15_C)
use the subcoooling method outlined below.
SUBCOOLING METHOD (RFCIII SYSTEMS)
(Ambient Temperature Above 60_F [16_C] )
1 – Connect gauge manifold. Connect an upright
R–22 drum to center port of gauge manifold.
2 – Operate indoor and outdoor units in cooling
mode. Allow outdoor unit to run until system
pressures stabilize.
3 – Make sure thermometer well is filled with
mineral oil before checking liquid line
temperature.
4 – Read liquid line pressure and convert to
condensing temperature using temperature/
pressure conversion chart.
Condensing temperature (read from gauges)
should be a few degrees warmer than the
liquid line temperature.

5 – Place thermometer in well and read liquid line
temperature. Table 12 shows how much
warmer the condensing temperature should be.
Add refrigerant to make the liquid line
temperature cooler.
Recover refrigerant to make the liquid line
temperature warmer.
6 – When unit is properly charged liquid line
pressures should approximate table 11.
E – Oil Charge
Refer to table 4 on page 6 for factory oil charge.
V – MAINTENANCE
At the beginning of each heating or cooling season, the
system should be cleaned as follows:
A – Outdoor Unit
1 – Clean and inspect outdoor coil. (Coil may be
flushed with a water hose).
2 – Outdoor fan motor is prelubricated and sealed.
No further lubrication is required.
3 – Visually inspect all connecting lines, joints
and coils for evidence of oil leaks.
NOTE-If insufficient heating or cooling occurs, unit
should be gauged and refrigerant charge checked.
B – Indoor Coil
1 – Clean coil if necessary.
2 – Check connecting lines, joints and coil for
evidence of oil leaks.
3 – Check condensate line and clean if necessary.
C – Indoor Unit
1 – Clean or change filters.
2 – Check blower motor for debris. Blower motors
are prelubricated and sealed. No further
lubrication required.
3 – Adjust blower speed for cooling. Static
pressure drop over the coil should be checked
to determine the correct blower CFM. Refer to
Lennox Engineering Handbook for Static
Pressure and CFM tables.
4 – Check all wiring for loose connections.
5 – Check for correct voltage at unit.
6 – Check amp–draw on blower motor.

10HP OPERATING SEQUENCE
A–10HP Operation Sequence
This is the sequence of operation for 10HP units. The sequence is
outlined by numbered steps which correspond to circled numbers
on the adjacent diagram.
NOTE– The thermostat used may be electromechanical or electron-
ic.
NOTE– Transformer in indoor unit supplies power (24 VAC) to the
thermostat and outdoor unit controls.
COOLING:
1 – Cooling demand initiates at Y1 in the thermostat. Internal thermostat
wiring energizes terminal O energizing the reversing valve L1.
2 – Compressor contactor K1 is energized.
3 – K1-1 N.O. closes energizing compressor (B1) and outdoor fan motor
(B1). Compressor (B1) and outdoor fan motor (B4) begin immediate
operation.
END OF COOLING DEMAND:
4 – Cooling demand is satisfied. Terminal Y1 is de-energized.
5 – Terminal O and reversing valve L1 are de-energized
6 – Compressor contactor K1 is de-energized.
7 – K1-1 opens and compressor (B1) and outdoor fan motor (B4)
are de-energized and stop immediately.
FIRST STAGE HEAT:
8 – Heating demand initiates at W1 in the thermostat. Compressor
contactor K1 is energized.
9 – K1-1 N.O. closes energizing compressor and outdoor fan mo-
tor. Compressor (B1) and outdoor fan motor (B4) begin im-
mediate operation.
END OF FIRST STAGE HEAT:
10 – Heating demand is satisfied. Terminal W1 is de-energized.
11 – Compressor contactor K1 is de-energized.
12 – K1-1 opens and compressor (B1) and outdoor fan motor (B4) are de-
energized and stop immediately.
AUXILIARY HEAT (SECOND STAGE):
13 – Additional heating demand initites at W3 in the thermostat. Outdoor
unit remains running. W1 of indoor unit terminal strip TB1 is energized
initiating first stage heat from indoor unit.
14 – If outdoor temperature is below the balance point, N.O. low ambient
cut in thermostat S23 will close.
15 – When S23 is closed, W2 of indoor unit terminal strip TB1 is energized
initiating second stage heat from indoor unit.
END OF AUXILIARY HEAT (SECOND STAGE):
16 – Heating demand is satisfied. Terminal W3 is de-energized. Indoor unit
heating operation stops and outdoor unit continues operation.
EMERGENCY HEAT:
17 – Emergency heat mode is set at the thermostat. Outdoor unit will not
be operational in this mode. Terminal E2 is energized in the thermo-
stat. Emergency heat relay K26 is energized.
18 – N.O. K26-1 closes energizing W1 and W2 on terminal strip TB1 of in-
door unit. Indoor unit operates in second stage heat mode.
DEFROST MODE:
