3.4 Fan Speed Control Systems
Fan Speed Control provides an infinite number of speed variations on specially designed, permanent
split-capacitor motors. The control module varies the air quantity passing over the condenser coil by
monitoring refrigerant pressure.
3.4.1 Materials Supplied
1. Built-in pre-wired condenser control box
2. Air-cooled condenser
3. Piping access cover to be reinstalled when piping is complete
4. Bolts (four per leg) 3/8" x 5/8"
5. Terminal block for two-wire, 24-volt interlock connection between unit and condenser
6. Condenser legs, four on one-fan models
