Refrigerant liquid and battery acid can permanently damage the eyes (see First Aid), 2. Never operate the unit with the compressor discharge valve closed. 3. Keep your hands clear of the fans and belts when the unit is running. This should also be considered when opening and closing the compressor service valves. 4, Be sure gauge manifold hoses are in good condi- tion, Never let them come in contact with a belt, fan motor pulley, or any hot surface. Never apply heat to a sealed refrigeration system or container. 6. Fluorocarbon refrigerants, in the presence of an ‘open flame or electrical short, produce toxic gases that are severe respiratory irritants capable of caus- ing death. 7. Be sure all mounting bolts are tight and are of the correct length for their particular application. Use extreme caution when drilling holes inthe unit, ‘The holes may weaken structural components, and holes drilled into electrical wiring can cause fire or explosion. 9. Use caution when working around exposed coil fins. Painful laceration can be inflicted from the fins 10. Use caution when working with a refrigerant or refrigeration system in any enclosed or confined area witha limited air supply (for example, a trailer, container or in the hold of a ship). Refrigerant tends to displace air and can cause oxygen depletion which ‘may result in death by suffocation. REFRIGERANT Although fluorocarbon refrigerants are classified as safe refrigerants, certain precautions must be observed when handling them or servicing a unit in which they are used, ‘When released to the atmosphere from the liquid state, fluorocarbon refrigerants evaporate rapidly, freezing anything they contact. First Aid In the even: of frost bite, the objectives of First Aid are to protect the frozen area from further injury, to warm the affected area rapidly and to maintain respiration. 1. Cover the frozen part. Provide extra clothing and blankets. Give the victim a warm drink (not alcoho)) Warm the frozen part quickly by immersing it in water that is warm, NOT HOT. 5. If warm water is not available or practical to use, wrap the affected part gently in a sheet and warm blankets. If refrigerant contacts the eyes, flush them im- mediately with water 7. Obtain medical assistance as soon as possible. REFRIGERATION OIL Avoid refrigeration oil contact with the eyes. Avoid pro- longed or repeated contact of refrigeration oil with skin or clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling refrigera- tion oil to prevent irritation. First In case of eye contact, immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. CALL A PHYSICIAN. Wash skin with soap and water. CAUTION!

A clutch mounted. on the diesel en, lates the engine during electric standby operation. The clutch engages fully at 800 to 900 rpm on engine operation, constantly turning the com- pressor and fans at both high and low speed. ‘Thermo King X430 Compressor ‘The TD-I unit features a Thermo King X430, four- cylinder compressor with 30 cu. in.3 (491.6 cm’) displacement. 1,000 Hour Maintenance Intervals ‘A 10-quart oil sump and full-flow and bypass oil filters provide the TK3S3 diesel engine with 1,000 hour ‘maintenance intervals. Change engine oil (hot) and oil filter every 1,000 operating hours. THERMOGUARD Solid State Thermostat Accurate temperature control of the cargo area is pro- vided by a solid state electronic thermostat with a return air sensor. When the thermostat is set below 15 £3 F (9.5 +1.7 ©), the thermostat locks out High Speed Heat. Special units may have high speed heat or no heat at set- tings below 15 F (-9.5 C). CYCLE-SENTRY Il Start/Stop Controls (Optional) ‘The TD-Lis available with an optional CYCLE-SENTRY II Start/Stop fuel saving system to provide optimum operating economy. WARNING: With the selector switch in the Auto Start/Stop position and unit On/Off switch in the On Position, the unit may start at any time without prior warning. NOTE: A buzzer sounds when the unit is automatically preheating. ‘The CYCLE-SENTRY II system automatically starts the unit on thermostat demand and shuts down the unit when the box temperature reaches the thermostat set point. The CYCLE-SENTRY system automatically maintains engine temperature in cold ambients by restarting the unit if the engine block temperature drops to 65 F (18.3 C). When the unit starts because of low engine block temperature, it will run in the operating mode called for by the unit thermostat until the battery is fully charged and the engine block temperature reaches 120 F (48.9 C). Features of the CYCLE-SENTRY IV system are: © Auto Start/Stop or Continuous Run operation © Thermostat all season temperature control © Block Temperature Thermostat for low ambient operation ‘© Battery Sentry to keep batteries fully charged during unit operation (optional) © Preheat Indicator Buzzer SEQUENCE OF OPERATION Engine Operation, Standard 4-mode ur Continuous-Run Operation ‘The TD-I uses a THERMOGUARD solid state ther- ‘mostat for operetional control of the unit. On Con- tinuous Run operation, the unit runs continuously and cycles from Cool to Heat to maintain the proper temperature. The thermostat locks out High Speed Heat when the thermostat is set below 15 F (9.5 ©), When the unit is started with the trailer temperature higher than 3.4 F (1.9 C) above thermostat setpoint, the unit will run on High Speed Cool. When the temperature drops to 3.4 F (1.9 C) above set- point, the thermostat de-energizes the High Speed engine solenoid circuit, placing the unit on Low Speed Cool. ‘When the box temperature reaches thermostat set point, the thermostat energizes the High Speed engine solenoid circuit, placing the unit on Low Speed Cool. When the box temperature reaches thermostat set point, the thermostat energizes the pilot solenoid. The 3-way valve shifts to the Heat position, placing the unit on Low Speed Heat. The unit wil cycle between Low Speed Cool and Low Speed Heat as long as the box temperature re- mains between 5.1 F (2.9 C) above and 3.4 F (1.9 C) below set point. If the temperature continues to fall, the thermostat will shift the unit to High Speed Heat at 3.4 F (1.9 C) below set point. The unit will remain on High Speed Heat until the box temperature rises to 1.7 F (0.9 C) below set pi NOTE: The thermostat locks out High Speed heat at set points below 15 +3 F (-9.5 +1.7 C). Special units ‘may have High Speed Heat or no heat at set points below IS F (9.5 0. If the temperature continues to rise o 1.7 F (0.9 C) above set point, the thermostat de-energizes the pilot solenoid. The 3-way valve shifts back to the Cool position, plac- ing the unit on Low Speed Cool. If the temperature continues to rise to 5.1 F (2.9 C) above set point, the thermostat will energize the engine solenoid high speed circuit, placing the unit on High Speed Cool. Optional CYCLE-SENTRY II Auto Start/Stop Operation WARNING: With the selector switch in the Auto ‘Start/Stop position and unit On/Off switch in the On position, the unit may start at any time without prior warning. With the Auto Start/Stop-Continuous Run switch in the Auto Start/Stop position, the CYCLE-SENTRY II system starts the unit on thermostat demand and shuts down the unit when the box temperature reaches the ther- mostat set point. On CYCLE-SENTRY II equipped units, unit start-ups ‘may also be initiated by defrost cycle initiation or engine block temperature thermostat demand. In cold ambients, the CYCLE-SENTRY II system automatically maintains engine temperature by restarting the unit if the engine block temperature drops to 65 +10 F (18.3 +5.6 C). When the unit starts because of low engine block temperature, it will run in the operating mode called for by the unit thermostat until the battery is fully charged ‘and the engine block temperature reaches 120 + 10 F (48.9 £5.60). ‘After the unit starts from thermostat demand, defrost in- itiation or engine block temperature thermostat, a Bat- tery Sentry switch monitors the voltage across the field of the alternator and will keep the unit running if the bat- tery is not sufficiently charged. The unit runs in whichever operating mode the thermostat is calling for to properly maintain the box temperature. When the battery is suf- ficiently recharged, the unit will shut down on thermostat demand. When the box temperature is higher than 5.1 F (2.9 C) above thermostat set point, the engine will start and operates on High Speed Cool. ‘When the box temperature drops to 3.4 F (1.9 C) above thermostat set point, the thermostat de-energizes the throttle solenoid, placing the unit on Low Speed Cool. ‘When the tox temperature reaches thermostat set point, the engine will stop. If the box temperature continues to fall, the engine will start and the unit will operate on High Speed Heat at 3.4 F (1.9 ©) below set point. The unit will remain on High ‘Speed Heat until the box temperature rises to 1.7 F (0.9 ©) below set point. NOTE: The thermostat locks out High Speed Heat at Set points below 15 +3 F (-9.5 1.7 C). Special units ‘may have High Speed Heat or no heat at set points below IS F (9.5 0). At 1.7 F (G.9 C) below set point, the engine will stop, until the temperature rises to 5.1 F (2.9 C) above set point or falls to 3.4 F (1.9 C) below set point. The engine will restart, Defrost ‘The defrost mode can be initiated any time the evaporator coil temperature is below 38 F (3.3 C). Defrost is initiated automatically by the defrost air switch and defrost timer (optional) or manually by pressing the manual defrost switch, When a defrost cycle is initiated, the defrost relay energizes the damper solenoid and pilot solenoid. NOTE: If the unitis in null mode on optional CYCLE- SENTRY I! Start/Stop operation, pressing the manual defrost switch will cause the unit to start and operate in the defrost mode. ‘The unit remains on defrost until the evaproator coil temperature rises to 56 F (3.3 C), causing the defrost ter- mination switch to open. When the defrost termination switch opens, the unit may shift back to the cooling or heating mode, or the null mode (optional Start/Stop operation). Electric Operation (Models 25 & 50) WARNING: With the Diesel-Electric switch in the Elec- tric position, the unit On/Off switch in the On position, and electric power to the unit On, the unit may start at any time without prior warning. ‘The THERMOGUARD solid state thermostat controls the unit on electric standby operation. When the unit switch is turned on with the box temperature higher than 3.4 F (1.9 C) above thermostat setpoint, the unit will run on Cool. When the temperature drops to 3.4 F (1.9 C) above set- point, the thermostat de-energizes the electric motor con- tactor, placing the unit on Null. If the box temperature continues to fall, the thermostat energizes both the electric motor contactor and the heat ‘contactor to place the unit on Heat at 3.4 F (1.9 C) below set point. The unit will remain on Heat until the box temperature rises to 1.7 F (0.9 C) below set point. The ‘thermostat will then de-energize the electric motor con- tactor and heat contactor, placing the unit on Null. If the temperature continues to rise to 5.1 F (2.9 C) above set point, the thermostat will energize the electrie motor contactor, placing the unit on Cool. Defrost During electric operation, the defrost mode can be in- itiated any time the evaporator coil temperature is below 37 F (2.7 ©) with the unit operating on Cool. Defrost is initiated automatically by the defrost air switch and defrost timer (optional) or manually by pressing the manual defrost switch. When a defrost cycle is initiated, the defrost relay energizes the damper solenoid, pilot solenoid and elec- tric heaters. The unit remains on defrost until the evaporator coil temperature rises t0 43 F (6.1 C), caus- ing the defrost termination switch to open. FUELSAVER Unloader (Optional) Equipped Units ‘The FUELSAVER control system includes a modular THERMOGUARD thermostat plus a solid state control ‘module, control relay and unloading compressor to pro- vide 6-stage temperature control. With FUELSAVER, the unit functions as follows: Continuous-Run Operation (On Continuous Run operation, the unit runs continuously and cycles from cooling to heating to maintain the pro- per temperature. The thermostat locks out High Speed Heat when the thermostat is set below 15 F (-9.5 C). With the box temperature higher than 3.4 F (1.9) above ‘thermostat set point, the unit will run on High Speed Cool (not unloaded) on initial unit start up. An eight-minute timer may also shift the unit to High Speed Cool from the Low Speed/High Speed Cool cycle. ‘The unit will run High Speed Cool until the temperature drops to approximately 3.4 F (1.9 C) above set point. The unit then switches to Low Speed Cool ‘The unit will run on the Low Speed Cool cycle until the box temperature drops all the way to the thermostat set point. The unit then shifts to Low Speed Fuelsaver Heat. The unit will cycle between Low Speed Fuelsaver Cool and Low Speed Fuelsaver Heat as long as the box temperature remains between 5.1 F (2.9 C) above and 3.4 F (1.9 ©) below set point. If the box temperature drops to 3.4 F (1.9 C) below the thermostat settiag, the unit shifts to Low Speed/High Speed Heat and activates an eight-minute timer. The ‘engine will run on low speed for the first 8 minutes. If the box temperature rises to 1.7 F (0.9 C) below the ther- ‘mostat setting before 8 minutes have elapsed, the unit shifts back to Low Speed Fuelsaver Heat. If the engine is still on low speed when the 8 minutes are up (box temperature stil! more than 1.7 F [0.9 C] below ther- ‘mostat setting), the unit automatically shifts to High Speed Heat. NOTE: With a thermostat setting of 15 F (9 C) or less, 4@ lockout switch automatically prevents the unit from operating on High Speed Heat. Due to the High Speed Heat lockout switch, a unit set at or below 15 F (-9 C) will operate only on High Speed Cool, Low Speed Cool, Low Speed Fuelsaver Cool, Low Speed Fuelsaver Heat and Low Speed Heat. The thermostat iocks out High Speed Heat at set points below 15 +3 F (9.5 1.7 C) on standard units, Special units may have High Speed Heat or no heat at set points below 15 F (-9.5 C). ‘The unit will run on High Speed Heat until the box temperature rises t0 1.7 F (0.9 C) below the thermostat setting. At 1.7 F (0.9 C) below set point, the unit will sift to Low Speed Unloaded Heat. Ifthe temperature continues to rise to 1.3 F (0.7 C) above set point, the thermostat de-energizes the pilot solenoid, The 3-way valve shifts back to the Cool position, plac- ing the unit on Low Speed Unloaded Cool. When the temperature rises higher than 5.1 F (2.9 ©) above set point, the unit will switch from Low Speed Unloaded Coo! to Low Speed/High Speed Cool and ac- tivate the eight-minute timer. The engine will run on low speed for the first 8 minutes. If the box temperature drops to approximately 3.4 F (1.9 C) above the thermostat set- ting before 8 minutes have elapsed, the unit shifts to the Low Speed Fuelsaver Cool cycle. If the engine is still on low speed after the 8 minutes, (box temperature still more than 3.4 F [1.9 C] above thermostat setting), the unit automatically energizes the throttle solenoid and shifts to High Speed Cool. CYCLE-SENTRY I Auto Start/Stop and FUELSAVER Unloader Operation WARNING: With the selector switch in the Auto ‘Start/Stop position and unit On/Off switch in the On position, the unit may start at any time without prior warning. With the box temperature higher than 3.4 F (1.9 C) above thermostat set point, the unit will run on High Speed Cool (not unloaded) on initial unit startup. An eight-minute timer may also shift the unit to High Speed Cool from the Low Speed/High Speed Cool cycle. ‘The unit will run High Speed Cool until the temperature drops to approximately 3.4 F (1.9 C) above set point. The then switches to Low Speed Cool. NOTE: High Speed Cool operation may require a ‘minimum of eight minutes of unit running time if the unit, previously cycled to Null. NOTE: On CYCLE-SENTRY Il systems operating in Auto Start/Stop Fuelsaver mode, the Low Speed Fuelsaver Cool and Low Speed Fuelsaver Heat cycles are locked out by the CYCLE-SENTRY selector switch. Low Speed Fuelsaver Cool is replaced with the Low Speed Cool cycle on temperature drops and the Null Cyele on temperature rises. Low Speed Fuelsaver Heat is replaced completely by the Null cycle, ‘The unit will run on the Low Speed Cool cycle until the box temperature drops to the thermostat setting. The unit then shifts to Null and stops. The unit will remain on Null until the temperature rises to 5.1 F (2.9 C) above set point or falls to 3.4 F (1.9 C) below set point, If the box temperature drops to 3.4 F (1.9 C) below thermostat setting, the unit shifts from Null to Low Speed/High Speed Heat and activates an eight-minute timer. The unit will operate on Low Speed Heat for the first 8 minutes. If the box temperature rises to 1.7 F (0.9 C) below the thermostat setting before 8 minutes have lapsed, the unit shifts back to Null. If the engine is still ‘on low speed after 8 minutes (box temperature still more than 1.7 F {0.9 C] below thermostat setting), the unit automatically shifts to High Speed Heat, NOTE: The thermostat locks out High Speed Heat at set points beiow 15 +3 F (9.5 + 1.70) on standard units. Special units may have High Speed Heat or no heat at set points below 15 F (9.5 ©). ‘The unit will run High Speed Heat until the temperature rises to 2.1 F (1.2 C) below the thermostat setting. At 2.1 F (1.2 ©} below set point, the engine will stop, plac- ing the unit on Null. The unit will remain on Null until the temperature rises to 5.1 F (2.9 C) above set point or falls to 3.4 F (1.9 C) below set poi If the temperature rises higher than 5.1 F (2.9 C) above set point, the engine will start and the unit will operate ‘on Low Speed/High Speed Cool. With the eight-minute timer activated, the unit will operate on Low Speed Cool for the first 8 minutes. If the box temperature drops to approximately 3.6 F (2 ) above the thermostat setting before 8 minutes have elapsed, the unit shifts to the Low Speed Cool eycle. If the unit is still on Low Speed Cool after 8 minutes (box temperature still more than 3.6 F [2 C] above thermostat setting), the unit automatically shifts to High Speed Cool. Defrost When the unit is on FUELSAVER operation, the defrost made can be initiated by the manual defrost switch, air switch or automatic defrost timer any time the evaporator coil temperature is below 37 F (2.7 C). If the unit is in Null mode (Auto Start/Stop operation), initiating defrost ‘will cause the unit to start and operate in the defrost mode, When a defrost cycle is initiated, the defrost relay energizes the damper solenoid and pilot solenoid. On FUELSAVER CYCLE-SENTRY I units, the throttle solenoid WILL NOT be energized immediately by the defrost relay. The unit will operate in low speed for 8 minutes before energizing the throttle solenoid for high speed operation, ‘The unit remains on defrost until the evaporator coil temperature rises to 43 F (6.1 C) causing the defrost ter- mination switch to open. When the defrost termination switch opens, the unit may return to the Null mode (Auto Start/Stop operation) or operate in a cooling or heating mode, depending on thermostat demand. If the thermostat calls for the Null mode (Auto Start/Stop operation) waile the unit is defrosting, the unit will con- tinue to run until defrosting is complete, then the unit will stop.

Both the white and tan lights may be lit when the unit is on defrost. ‘The AMBER FUELSAVER light indicates the unit is on low speed operation or Null cycle on CYCLE- SENTRY operation. ty 10. A GREEN signal light indicates CYCLE-SENTRY, IL system optional) is functioning normally. If (CYCLE-SENTRY II light is out with selector switch in AUTO START/STOP position and ON/OFF switch in ON position, it indicates a malfunction has occurred and the reset switch will be tripped. DIAL OR DIGITAL THERMOMETER. A ther- ‘mometer indicates the temperature of the air retur~ ning to the evaporator from the box. (OIL PRESSURE GAUGE. The oil pressure gauge indicates engine oil pressure. Engine oil pressure should rise immediately on starting. A low pressure switch will trip the Reset Switch and stop the engine ifoil pressure drops below 15 +3 psi (103 +21 kPa) for 30-50 seconds. COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE (Op- tional). The engine coolant temperature gauge in- dicates the cemperature of the engine coolant in the ‘engine block. COMPOUND PRESSURE GAUGE. The com: ound gauge indicates the pressure in the suction, line at the compressor (optional). X430 compressor and R-12 When the unit is on cooling with a 35 F (1.6 C) return air temperature, the suction pressure should bbe 8-16 psi (55-110 kPa) (at the service valve). With a return air temperature of 0 F (-18 C), the suction pressure should be 0-5 psi (0-34 kPa). When the return air temperature is below 0 F (-18 ©, the suction pressure should indicate a vacuum, X430 compressor and R-S02 When the unit is on cooling with a 35 F (1.6 C) return air temperature, the suction pressure should, bbe 20 psi (138 kPa), With a return air temperature of 0 F (-18 C), the suction prssure should be 13-16 psi (90-110 kPa). When the return air temperature is below 0 F (-17.8 ©), the suction pressure should be 5-13 psi (34-90 kPa), RECEIVER TANK SIGHT GLASS. The receiver tank sight glass indicates the level of refrigerant in the receiver tank for checking the refrigerant charge. COMPRESSOR OIL SIGHT GLASS. The com- pressor oil sight glass indicates the level of com- pressor oil in the compressor sump. UNIT PROTECTION DEVICES 1 RESET SWITCH. A thermal type manual reset switch protects the engine. The reset switch contains a heater coil that is attached to a sensor switch in the engine oil system, engine coolant system, com- pressor oil system (optional) and the CYCLE- SENTRY II system (optional). When the compressor oil (optional) or engine oil pressure is too low, when the starter exceeds the cranking limit on Auto-Start/Stop operation, or when the engine coolant temperature is too high, the resistor in the reset switch starts to heat up. In 30-50 seconds, the heat melts a soldered shaft in- side a tube, allowing the switch to trip and shut down the unit. The switch must be manually reset after the resistor cools. CONTROL SYSTEM CIRCUIT BREAKER. A 30 amp circuit breaker, located behind the control panel face, trips if the 12V de control circuit is overloaded. CURRENT LIMITER. The current limiter is a fusi- ble link between the ammeter and the reset switch. At approximately 50-55 amp load, the fusible link will melt, cutting all power to the glow plugs and the rest of the unit HIGH PRESSURE CUTOUT. The high pressure cutout (HPCO) is a pressure sensitive switch located in the compressor discharge manifold. If the discharge pressure rises above 300 psi (2067 kPa) ‘on R12 (400 psi [2758 kPa] on RS02, the HPCO switch opens the circuit to the throttle solenoid stop- ping the engine. Within 30-50 seconds, the reset switch will trip because of low oil pressure in the engine, HIGH PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE. The high pressure relief valve is designed to relieve excess pressure within the refrigeration system. The valve is a spring-loaded piston that lifts off its seat when refrigerant pressure exceeds 500 +50 psi (3,447 +345 kPa). The valve will reset when the pressure drops to 400 psi (2758 kPa). The valve could possibly leak refrigerant after it has relieved excess pressure. Tapping the valve lightly may help the valve reseat and SEAL PROPERLY. The valve is non-repairable and requires no adjustment. If the valve fails to reseat properly, remove the refrigerant charge and replace the valve. The high pressure relief valve is located on a high pressure line near the condenser. Its location is such that when the pressure is expelled from the valve, it would be directed away from anyone servi the unit. We OVERLOAD RELAY — Manual Reset (Models 25, & 50). An overload relay protects the standby elec- tric motor. The overload relay opens the circuit from the linestarter to the electric motor if the motor overloads for any reason (e.g., low line voltage or improper power supply) while the unit is on electric standby operation. EVAPORATOR HIGH TEMPERATURE PRO- TECTION SWITCH (Model 50). A high tempera- ture protective switch is located above the evaporator coil to interrupt. the heat cycle if the temperature above the coil exceeds 150 F (66 C) dur- ing electric standby operation. ELECTRONIC TEMPERATURE SENSOR SWITCH (Model EEC units only). This switch, located in the linestarter, replaces the high ‘temperature cutout switch found on non-EEC units. (On electric standby power, the remote sensor con- nected to the evaporator heaters will monitor evaproator temperature. When the temperature is less than 130 F (54.4 C), the module output is on and the Red LED indicator is off. When the temperature at the sensor reaches 130 F (54.4 C), the output will turn off and the LED will go on, indicating excessive evaporator heater temperature, By switching off the power for one second or more, the electronic switch module will reset when the evaporator temperature drops below 130 F (54.4 C).. PREHEAT INDICATOR BUZZER (CYCLE- SENTRY Il Units). The preheat indicator buzzer is energized only when the CYCLE-SENTRY II system is causing the glow plugs to prehe: NOTE: On CYCLE-SENTRY I Auto Start/Stop operation, the glow plugs do not always pre-heat before the engine starts. UNIT OPERATION Pre-Trip Inspection The following Pre-trip Inspection should be completed before loading the truck. While the Pre-trip Inspection is not a substitute for regularly scheduled maintenance inspections, it is an important part of the preventive maintenance program designed to head off operating problems before they happen. 2 FUEL. The diesel fuel supply must be sufficient to guarantee engine operation to the next check point. ENGINE OIL. Engine oil level should be at the FULL mark. Never overfill. Coolant Level Gauge Dipstick Check Engine Oil & Coolant Level 3. COOLANT. Engine coolant must be above the ADD mark and have anti-freeze protection to -30 F (34 0). Check and add coolant in the expansion tank. CAUTION: Do not remove radiator cap while coolant is hot. 4, BATTERY. Terminals must be clean. Electrolyte should be at FULL mark. 5. BELTS, Belts must be in good condition and ad- justed to proper tension. 6. ELECTRICAL. Electrical connections should be securely fastened. Wires and terminals should be free of corrosion, cracks or moisture. 7. STRUCTURAL. Visually inspect the unit for leaks, loose or broken parts and other damage. Condenser ‘and evaporator coils should be clean and free of debris. Check defrost drain hoses and fittings to be sure they are open. The damper in the evaporator outlet must move freely with no sticking or binding. Be sure all doors are latched securely. Starting Unit on Diesel Operation 1. Snap Diesel-Electric Switch to “Diesel” position (model 25 & 50 units). 2. Snap unit On-Off switch to On. 3. Hold PRE-HEAT/START Switch in PRE-HEAT position for the required time.

CAUTION: Never use starting fluid. 9 CYCLE-SENTRY Il Start/Stop Equipped Units on Diesel Oper Selection of Operating Modes on CYCLE-SENTRY Il Equipped Units ‘Thermo King CYCLE-SENTRY II Start/Stop system (optional) is designed to save refrigeration fuel costs. The savings vary with commodity, ambient temperatures and box insulation. However, not all temperature controlled products can be properly transported without continuous air circulation. Because highly sensitive products will normally require continuous air circulation, CYCLE-SENTRY II units come equipped with a selector switch for “Auto Start/Stop” or “Continuous Run” operation. Your selec- tion of operatioa mode for the proper protection of a particular commodity should use the following guidelines. Examples of Products Normally Acceptable for CYCLE-SENTRY Il Operation © Frozen foods (in adequately insulated trucks) @ Boxed or processed meats © Poultry Fish Dairy products © Candy © Chemicals Fim © All non-edible products Examples of Products Normally Requiring CONTINUOUS RUN Operation for Air Flow © Fresh fruits and vegetables, especially asparagus, bananas, broccoli, carrots, citrus, green peas, let- tuce, peaches, spinach, strawberries, sweet corn, etc. © Non-processed meat produets (unless pre-cooled to recommended temperature) © Fresh flowers and foliage The above listings are not all inclusive. Consult your grower, shipper or USDA if you have any questions about the operating mode selection on your type af load. Continuous-Run Operation With the selector switch in the “Continuous-Run’” posi- tion, the unit will operate in its regular cooling and heating modes. Refer to Starting Instructions for Stan- dard 4-Mode Units. 8 CAUTION: With the selector switch in “Auto ‘Start/Stop” position and unit “On/Off switch in the “On” position, the unit may start at any time without prior warning. NOTE: A buzzer sounds when the unit is automatical- ly pre-heating. NOTE: Initial start-up of cold soaked units in cold weather. Truck units equipped with CYCLE-SENTRY H should be manually started if the units have been non- operative (turned off), resulting in cold soaked engine temperatures below 60 F (18.3 C). Place the selector switch in the ‘Continuous Run” position and refer to ‘Starting Instructions for “Continuous Run Operation”* for manual starting instructions. After this initial cold Start, the selector switch can be switched to “Auto ‘Start/Stop” operation. CYCLE-SENTRY II sensors will then automatically maintain temperatures and provide ‘reliable unit restarts on demand. Fully charged batteries in good condition are essential for reliable unit operation. This is especially true on CYCLE- SENTRY I! equipped units in cold weather. Starting Procedure 1. Set the thermostat at the desired temperature. DO NOT set thermostat lower than required (lowering the thermostat setting does not make the unit cool faster), 2. Place the Auto Start/Stop-Continuous Run selec- tor switch in the “Auto Start/Stop” position. 3. Place the unit On-Off switch in the “On” position. The green indicator light wll come on. (This green light must be on at all times while unit is on Auto Stop/Start operation). 4. If the thermostat calls for cooling or heating, the ool or heat light will be on and the engine will begin cranking. The glow are energized during the crank- ing period. If the engine rpm does not exceed 50 ‘pm during the first 4 seconds of cranking, or if the engine does not start after 25 seconds of cranking, the cranking cycle terminates. NOTE: If the engine fails to start, the unit reset switch will open, interrupting current to the con- rol system approximately 40 seconds after the cranking cycle terminates. ‘Thermostat ——>| m Control Panel Cycle-Sentry Control Box 5. If the engine fails to start, place the unit switch in the “Of?” position, determine and correct the cause for not starting, then push in the reset button and. repeat the starting procedure. Starting Units on Electric Standby Power (Model 25 & 50 Units) 1. With the On/Off switch in the “Off” position and the high voltage power supply off, connect the ‘power cable to the power supply. Be sure the power supply is the proper voltage, amperage and phase. 2. Set the thermostat at the desired temperature. Do not set the thermostat lower than required (Iower- ing the thermostat setting does not make the unit cool faster), 3. Snap the Diesel/Electric switch to ELECTRIC position, CAUTION: Do not start the électrie motor until ‘the diesel engine has come to a complete stop, disengaging the clutch. 4. Turn high voltage power supply On and momen- tarily snap the On/Off switch to the “On” posi- tion. Check for correct fan rotation by placing a small piece of cloth or paper in front of the con- 9 denser grille. Proper rotation will hold the cloth or paper to the grille, incorrect rotation will blow it away from the unit. 5. If the fan rotation is correct, turn the unit On. If the fan rotation is incorrect, turn off the power to the cable and reverse the position of any two power leads on the power cable plug. DO NOT disturb the green ground wire. (Refer this procedure to a qualified electrical repairman.) NOTE: Ifthe unit fails to run, the thermostat set- ting may not demand operation. Check the unit thermometer and compare the box temperature with the thermostat seting. The thermostat setting must bbe more than 5.1 F (2.9 ©) above or 3.4 F (1.9 ©) below the box temperature to demand unit opera- tion, If the thermostat setting is well above or below the box temperature, check the overload relay reset button on the unit to be sure the overload relay has not tripped from overload. After Start Inspection 1. OIL PRESSURE. Check engine oil pressure at high speed — should register between 35-60 psi (241-414 KPa). 2. AMMETER. Needle should indicate CHARGE for a short period of time after startup. 3. COMPRESSOR OIL. Compressor oil level should be visible in the sight glass. 4. REFRIGERANT. Suction pressure should not drop to zero unless the box temperature is very low. Suc~ tion pressure will drop as the box temperature drops (see “Compound Pressure Gauge under Unit Instruments). 5. THERMOSTAT. Dial the thermostat setting above and below the box temperature to check cycle se- quence and switch differential (see “Operating Modes" under Unit Operation). NOTE: On units equipped with CYCLE- SENTRY If Start/Stop controls, if the engine has not run long enough to thoroughly warm up or if ‘the battery is not fully charged (optional), the unit ‘may not shut off in the Null mode. 6 PRE-COOLING. With the thermostat set at the desired temperature, allow the unit to run for one- half to one hour (longer if possible) before loading the truck. Pre-cooling removes residual body heat and moisture from the box interior and provides 8 good test of the refrigeration system. 7. DEFROST. When the unit has finished pre-cooling the truck interior (box temperature dropped below 40 F [5 C)), initiate a defrost cycle with the manual defrost switch. Defrost cycle should terminate automatically. Loading Procedu 1. To minimize frost accumulation on the evaporator coil and heat gain in the truck, be sure the unit is OFF before opening the doors. (Unit may be running when loading the box from a warehouse with door seals.) 2. Spot check and record load temperature while loading. Especially note any off-temperature product. 3. Load product so that there is adequate space for air circulation completely around the load. DO NOT block the evaporator inlet or outlet. Post Load Procedure 1. Be sure all doors are closed and latched securely. 2. Adjust thermostat dial to the desired temperarure setpoint, 3. Start unit, 4, One-half hour after loading, defrost the unit by ‘momentarily pressing the Manual Defrost switch. If the box temperature has dropped below 40 F (5 ), the unit will defrost. Defrost cycle should ter- minate automatically. Post Trip Inspection 1. Wash unit. Check for leaks. Check for loose or missing hardware. hen Check for physical damage to unit. a Electrical Maintenance ALTERNATOR Charging System Diagnostic Procedures NOTE: Units manufactured with Cycle-Sentry and alternators with integral regulators MUST use replace- ‘ment alternators with integral regulators. CAUTION: “Full-fielding” alternators with the in- tegral regulator is accomplished by installing a jumper from terminal F2 0 ground. Attempting to full-field the ‘alternator by applying battery voltage to terminal F2 will ‘cause voltage regulator failure. Complete the following checkout procedure before replacing the voltage regulator or the alternator. 1. With the unit switch “off, attach a voltmeter to terminal “Sense (2)"" and the alternator chassis. ‘Voltmeter should indicate battery voltage. Terminal Location 1 2. With the unit switch “on”, attach a voltmeter to terminal “FI” and the alternator chassis. Voltmeter should indicate battery voltage. 3. To determine whether the alternator or regulator is faulty, attach a test lead between terminal F2 and chassis ground. Run the engine on high speed. CAUTION: ‘minal F2, Never apply battery voltage to ter- a. Full alternator output indicates the alternator is good but the voltage regulator needs replacement. b. If there is LOW or NO output, the alternator is probably faulty. However, the following items are potential causes for not charging. — Check the alternator brushes — Check the 2A circuit from the alternator to the battery a 1. 2 — Properly tension the alternator belt — Check battery cable connections and the alter- nator ground. They must be clean and tight. — The battery must be in good condition and ‘mus: accept a charge. — Check for excessive or unusual amperage draw by the unit control circuits. NOTE: A loss of battery voltage to-either terminal F1 or TERMINAL “Sense (2)” will cause the alternator to stop charging.

Bearing Voltage Brush Retainer Rear Housing Capacitor Regulator Assembly Gasket Cover BATTERY Inspect and clean the battery terminals during scheduled maintenance inspections. A dead or low battery can be the cause of an LED or ammeter (optional) indicating discharge due to lack of initial excitation of the alternator. NOTE: If the battery was discharged enough that a boost was needed, the alternator may not recharge the battery because there is not enough current to excite the alternator field. UNIT WIRING Inspect unit wiring and wire harnesses during scheduled ‘maintenance inspections for loose, chafed or broken wires that could cause open or short circuits. CHARGING SYSTEM (12V de) Immediately after startup, the ammeter may show a discharge condition on systems with brush type alter- nators. This is due to a light film buildup on the alter- nator slip rings. The film buildup occurs primarily on units that have been siting unused for long periods of time. The film should disappear after a minute oF two, and the ammeter should show a high charge rate that will continue until the battery voltage is brought back up to normal. Under normal running conditions, the ammeter will show a slight charge condition. Ifthe ammeter shows a discharge after startup, check the alternator belt ten- sion and all charging circuit connections including the battery. NOTE: On installations where the TD-I unit is con- nected to the truck battery and both units are running — it is normal for the unit ammeter to indicate a discharge condition while the truck engine is running because of the truck’s higher voltage charge rate. CYCLE-SENTRY PANEL The circuit board cannot be repaired. It must be replac- ed if it is damaged. INTAKE HEATERS (GLOW PLUGS) ‘Two electric intake heaters warm the intake air for easier cold weather starting. The Preheat-Start switch in the Preheat or Start position energizes the heaters. The am- meter should indicate a 45 amp discharge during preheating. If the engine becomes difficult to start when cold, the preheat circuit should be checked before look- ing for more serious engine problems. 0 ‘The easiest way to check the intake heater is to feel the heater while holding the Preheat switch on. The heater itself becomes very hot in a short period of time, so use extreme caution when checking the heaters with bare fingers. Ifthe heater does not get warm, check the fusi- bie link atthe Reset switch. If the link does not look burn- cd, check the H wire at the Preheat-Start switch with a voltmeter or test light. If there is no voltage, replace or repair the Preheat-Start switch, If there is voltage atthe H wire, check for voltage atthe intake heaters. If there is voltage at the intake heater but the heater is not get- ting warm, replace the heater. A confirming test would be to check the resistance of the intake heaters with an obmmeter. RESET SWITCH The engine is protected by a manually reset thermo- breaker reset switch. The reset switch contains a resistor that is attached to sensor switches in the engine oil system, engine cooling system and optional compressor low oil pressure cutout and CYCLE-SENTRY II system. If one of the sensors is grounded due to an abnormal con- dition (low oil pressure, high coolant temperature or ex- tended cranking time), the resistor attached to the reset. switch heats up. The heat melts a soldered shaft inside a tube, allowing the reset switch to trip and stop the engine, It takes approximately 30-50 seconds for the resistor to heat up ané trip the reset switch. ‘The two most common causes of reset switch failure are loss of solder and burned out resistors. If some of the solder is lost, the switch may reset, but from then on a slight jar or small amount of heat from the resistor may ‘cause the button to pop out. ‘When a reset switch is suspected of being defective, check the resistor for an open circuit. Replacing the resistor is the only repair. The reset switch must be replaced if it is defective. ‘Summary of reasons for the reset switch (Red button) tripping: High coolant temperature. 2. Lack of engine oil pressure. 3. Lack of fuel to the engine (switch trips because of a lack of engine oil pressure). NOTE: If the unit switch is “On” with Auto ‘Stop/Start-Continuous Run selector switch in the “Continuous Run position and the engine is not running, the low oil pressure sensor will cause the reset switch to open. High pressure in the refrigeration system (high pressure cutout shuts down the engine, then reset switch trips because of engine low oil pressure). Compressor low oil pressure (optional). A sensor the compressor oil system closes if the compressor oil pressure falls below 15 psi (103 kPa), causing the reset switch to trip and stop the engine Unit exceeds cranking limit on CYCLE-SENTRY I operation. If the engine cranks continuously for approximately 30 seconds and fails to start, the ‘CYCLE-SENTRY II module stops further crank- ing attempts. After this occurs, the reset switch trips in 30 to 50 seconds or less because of engine low oil pressure. 7. Reset switch becoming defective. The switch may get to a point where it will open due to vibration. 8. A ground fault in the No. 20 or 20 wires to the switches is also a possible cause. NOTE: A ground or short circuit in the electrical system does not cause the reset switch to pop out. However, the reset switch pops out if #20 circuits ae shorted to ground, ENGINE LOW OIL PRESSURE SWITCH Engine oil presure should rise immediately on starting, ‘causing the oil pressure switch to open. If the oil pressure drops below 15 +3 psi (103 +21 kPa), the switch will close and trip the reset switch and stop the engine. A con- tinuity tester is needed to check the oil pressure switch. 1, Remove wires 20A and 96B from switch. 2. Continuity tester should indicate a complete circuit between each terminal and ground. 3. Start the engine. Tester should show an open cir- cuit between each terminal and ground. Repair consists of replacing the switch.

Using a voltmeter, check for voltage between the No. 8 terminal and the CH terminal on the back of the thermostat housing. Approximately 12 volts should be present. If no voltage or low voltage is present, there is an open or excessive resistance in the No. 8 wire or the ground (CH) wire. erro Vad Checking Terminals 8 and CH 2.
