Only qualified personnel should install and service the equipment. The installation, starting up, and servicing of heating, ventilating, and
air-conditioning equipment can be hazardous and requires specific knowledge and training. Improperly installed, adjusted or altered
equipment by an unqualified person could result in death or serious injury. When working on the equipment, observe all precautions in the
literature and on the tags, stickers, and labels that are attached to the equipment.

Notes:
1. An adjustable TXV is provided for each circuit in the TWE and TWA models. If the application causes the superheat to deviate from the values shown
above by more than 1 degree - after the system has achieved steady state - the TXV should be adjusted to provide the values shown as measured at
the compressor.
2. The values given above have been tested and are approved for the matched sets shown. If an alternate combination is used, an expansion device
should be used that provides 16-20°F degrees of superheat measured at the compressor.
3. Check and adjust superheat using this table, then compare with charging chart to determine if charge corrections are necessary.
