4/11/12
We will discuss the value of using voltage line monitors and head pressure controls.  Voltage line monitors protect motors and other three phase equipment from premature failure and damage due to over/under voltage conditions, phase loss, phase reversal, phase unbalance, faulty power supply and contactor problems.  Head Pressure Controls regulate system pressure by modulating the condenser fan speed as a function of condensing temperature during low ambient conditions to prevent evaporator freeze ups, low pressure cut-outs and liquid slugged compressors.  These products are a must in any compressor environment.  We will also discuss the value of manufacturing electronic controls in the US and the advantages this brings the contractor.  We will also briefly touch on furnace and defrost replacement boards.
