Term Term Definition Options Unit of Measure
Compressor Staging

The compressor staging for the unit. Select "Single Stage" for units with single stage (on/off) control. Select "Multiple, Discrete Stages" for units with multiple compressors, discrete unloading stages, or compressors with stepped speed motors that are controlled to operate at discrete stages. Select "Variable" for compressors that operate at variable speeds or with modulating unloading.

Compressor unloader Compressor unloader is (1) device for controlling compressor capacity by rendering one or more cylinders ineffective. (2) device on or in a compressor for equalizing the high- and low-side pressures for a brief period during starting in order to decrease the starting load on the motor. View None

Condenser A device or unit used to condense a substance from its gaseous to its liquid state, by cooling it. In so doing, the latent heat is given up by the substance, and will transfer to the condenser coolant. View None
Condenser View None
Condenser Fan Speed Operation

The condenser fan control option used by the unit. If the unit has several constant-speed condenser fans that stage on in conjunction with multiple compressors, this should be set to ÒStepped Speed.Ó
