May 2000 Page 32 PTCR Diagnosis CME1056R The CME1056 D series cubers use a PTCR Positive Temperature Coefficient Resistor in place of a conventional start relay and start capacitor e Power from the contactor connects to the PTCR and to the Run Capacitor e A wire connects the other terminal of the PTCR to the compressor s start winding e Another wire connects the run capacitor to the start winding e A parallel circuit connects power from the contactor to the Run winding of the compressor A PTCR changes resistance sharply when its temperature changes When the PTCR is cold it connects full current to the compressor s start winding After a very short time the PTCR heats up and shuts off the current flow Under normal conditions the PTCR s case is at about 180 F At that temperature the PTCR has very high resistance and will not allow current to flow It must cool down to about 120 F Before current will pas through it again Diagnosis 1 Disconnect electrical power 2 Check if the PTCR is cool enough to handle safely If not wait 5 minutes for it to cool off 3 Disconnect both leads to the PTCR and measure its resistance with an ohmmeter If the PTCR reads less than 22 ohms or more than 40 ohms replace it May 2000 Page 33 CME1056R Operational Characteristics CME1056R Cycle Times 70 F condenser air 70 F indoor air 50 F water 90 F con
