Unit Operation

NEW COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONS
Compressor
The unit is fitted with a scroll compressor equipped with
suction and discharge service valves and an econom-
izer connection. The compressor draws refrigerant gas
from the evaporator and delivers it to the condenser at
an increased temperature and pressure. The pressure
is such that refrigerant heat can be absorbed by the
surrounding air at ambient temperatures.
Compressor Switches, Transducers and Sensors
a. Compressor Discharge Pressure Transducer
(CDP)
The CDP provides a signal to the control system
equivalent to pressure leaving the compressor. The
reading is displayed, recorded in the DataLink data
recorder and used to control the refrigeration system. It
is located in the discharge line leaving the compressor.
b. Compressor Suction Pressure Transducer
(CSP)
The CSP provides a signal to the control system
equivalent to pressure entering the compressor. The
reading is displayed, recorded in the DataLink data
recorder and used to control the refrigeration system. It
is located in the suction service valve.
c. Compressor Discharge Temperature Sensor
(CDT)
The CDT provides a signal to the control system
equivalent to the temperature of the gas leaving the
compressor. The reading is displayed, recorded in the
DataLink data recorder and used to control the
refrigeration system. It is located on the compressor
head.
d. Compressor Suction Temperature Sensor (CST)
The CST provides a signal to the control system
equivalent to to the temperature of the gas entering the
compressor suction service valve. It is located on the
line entering the valve.
Liquid Injection Solenoid Valve (LIV)
The LIV is opened, during periods high compressor dis-
charge temperature to inject refrigerant into the eco-
nomizer connection to cool the compressor. It is located
at the front of the economizer.
Economizer Circuit
The economizer circuit consist of a compact braze plate
heat exchanger (item NO TAG, NO TAG) and the eco-
nomizer expansion valve (item NO TAG = ECXV). Both
are located above the compressor.
In the economized mode, the frozen and pull down ca-
pacity of the unit is increased by subcooling the liquid
refrigerant entering the evaporator expansion valve.
Overall efficiency is increased because the gas leaving
the economizer enters the compressor at a higher pres-
sure, therefore requiring less energy to compress it to
the required condensing conditions.
To place the unit in the economized mode, the control
system energizes (opens) the ECXV. The ECXV con-
trols the flow of liquid from the main liquid line through
the economizer according to changes in superheat of
the refrigerant leaving the economizer.
2.1.1 Economizer Transducer and Sensor
a. Economizer Outlet Pressure Transducer
(ECOP)
The ECOP is located in the suction line leaving the
economizer. It provides the control system with eco-
nomizer outlet pressure information to be displayed,
recorded in the DataLink data recorder and used to
determine the required position of the economizer ex-
pansion valve.
b. Economizer Outlet Temperature Sensor (ECOT)
The EVOT is located on the suction line leaving the
economizer. It provides the control system with eco-
nomizer outlet temperature information to be displayed,
recorded in the DataLink data recorder and used to
determine the required position of the economizer ex-
pansion valve.
Model NDK(ST) Refrigerant Diagram 5/31
REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT DURING COOLING
When cooling, the unit operates as a vapor compression
refrigeration system. The main components of the
system are: the (1) scroll compressor, (2) air-cooled
condenser, (3) evaporator expansion valve, (4) direct
expansion evaporator and (5) economizer circuit.
The refrigeration system will operate in one of three
modes; Standard, Economized or Null. In addition, the
system may also operate in Liquid Injection mode.
At start, and during periods of high refrigeration system
load, the system will operate in the standard mode. This
allows the control system to place the unit in operation at
reduced capacity and measure the actual load. If the
microprocessor calculates addition capacity is required
and power is available (such as periods of high load or
during pull--down), the system will transition to
economized mode.
a. Standard Mode
In standard mode, (see Figure 1), the compressor
raises the pressure and the temperature of the
refrigerant and forces it into the condenser channels.
The condenser fans circulate surrounding air over the
outside of the condenser. The channels have fins
designed to improve the transfer of heat from the
refrigerant gas to the air. This removal of heat causes
the refrigerant to liquify. Liquid refrigerant leaves the
condenser and flows to the receiver.
The receiver stores the additional charge necessary for
low ambient operation. The receiver is equipped with a
fusible plug.
The refrigerant leaves the receiver and flows through
the liquid line service valve to the subcooler. The
subcooler occupies a portion of the main condensing
coil surface and gives off further heat to the passing air.
The refrigerant then flows through a filter-drier where an
absorbent keeps the refrigerant clean and dry.
The liquid then flows to an evaporator expansion valve
(EVXV) which reduces the pressure of the liquid and
meters the flow of liquid refrigerant to the evaporator to
obtain maximum use of the evaporator heat transfer
surface.
The refrigerant pressure drop caused by the expansion
valve is accompanied by a drop in temperature so the
low pressure, low temperature liquid that flows into the
evaporator tubes is colder than the air that is circulated
over the evaporator tubes by the evaporator fan. The
evaporator tubes have aluminum fins to increase heat
transfer; therefore heat is removed from the air
circulated over the evaporator. This cold air is circulated
throughout the refrigerated compartment to maintain
the cargo at the desired temperature.
The transfer of heat from the air to the low temperature
liquid refrigerant causes the liquid to vaporize.
This low temperature, low pressure vapor passes the
evaporator outlet temperature and pressure sensors
(EVOT and EVOP) which aid in calculation of
Model NDK(ST) Refrigerant Diagram 5/31
superheat. The vapor then returns to the compressor
through the compressor suction modulation valve
(CSMV). The CSMV controls the flow of refrigerant
entering the suction line, thereby matching the load to
the compressor capacity.
b. Economized Mode
In the economized mode the “main” refrigeration system
operates the same as in the Standard Mode except the
control system operates (opens) the economizer
expansion valve (ECXV). With the economizer
expansion valve operating (see Figure 2), the capacity
of the unit is increased by subcooling the liquid
refrigerant entering the evaporator expansion valve.
Liquid refrigerant for use in the economizer circuit is
taken from the main liquid line as it leaves the filter drier.
This liquid refrigerant flows through the economizer
expansion valve (ECXV) and the economizer heat
exchanger internal passages absorbing heat from the
liquid refrigerant flowing to the evaporator expansion
valve. Overall efficiency is increased because the gas
leaving the economizer enters the compressor at a
higher pressure, therefore requiring less energy to
compress it to the required condensing conditions.
c. Null Mode
The system will enter null mode during periods where no
cooling or heating is required and the system is in con-
tinuous run. In null mode the compressor and heaters
are shut down while the evaporator fans continue to op-
erate. The condenser fan will operate if engine cooling is
required.
The system may also enter the null mode while in start
stop if required time, coolant temperature or battery
condition parameters have not been met.
d. Liquid Injection Mode
The control system monitors the signal provided by the
compressor discharge temperature sensor. If com-
pressor temperature rises to the limit (refer to section
2.10), the system will enter Liquid Injection Mode. In this
mode the normally closed liquid injection valve (LIV) will
be pulsed or opened as required to allow flow of refriger-
ant into the economizer line, to cool the compressor.
HEAT AND DEFROST
In the Heat and Defrost Modes, the compressor is
de--energized. In Heat Mode, the coil mounted heaters
and evaporator fans are energized. Air flowing over the
warm coil is circulated throughout the refrigerated
compartment to maintain the cargo at the desired
temperature.
If the control system is Configured to allow Natural
Defrost, and the compartment temperature is above
freezing defrost may be accomplished using a
combination of coil heaters and return air.
If compartment temperature is below freezing or not
sufficiently warm enough to defrost the coil, the
evaporator fans are de--energized and the coil mounted
heaters energized.

Modulation Valve (CSMV) 4 PIN CONNECTOR DRIVE & MOTOR
Servicing of the compressor suction modulation valve is ASSEMBLY
the same as previous units except for the drive and
motor assembly mounting arrangement. For this type of SCREWS
valve, ensure the gasket is installed in the body groove BODY
and torque the four mounting screws 80 to 97 in/lbs (9 to
11 Nm).

Model NDK(ST) Unique Service Procedures 6/6

Electronic Expansion Valves
The electronic expansion valves (EVXV = evaporator
expansion valve & ECXV = economizer expansion
valve -- see Figure 5) are automatic devices which
maintain constant superheat of the refrigerant gas
leaving the evaporator/economizer regardless of
suction pressure. The valve functions are: (a) automatic
response of refrigerant flow to match the evaporator
load and (b) prevention of liquid refrigerant return to the
compressor. Unless a valve is defective, it seldom
requires any maintenance.
NOTE
As a preliminary check ensure the valve coil is snapped
down fully, and the coil retention tab is properly seated in
one of the valve body dimples. Also, check for a
temperature drop at the valve inlet strainer location,
indicating the strainer is restricted or plugged.

Diagnostics -- Microprocessor or Wiring
a. Locate the wires, on the harness side of the valve
connector labeled:
EXVA, EXVB, EXVC, EXVD and EXVE
OR
ECVA, ECVB, ECVC, ECVD and ECVE.
These will correlate to the connector pins labeled A,
B, C, D and E. Refer to Table 1.

A ORANGE A
B RED B
C YELLOW
A
D BLACK B
E GREY COM (+12V)
b. To test the EVXV, place the SROS in the Start/Run
position. DO NOT ALLOW THE UNIT TO START.
When the MessageCenter displays “SMV CLOS-
ING”, measure the AC voltage between pins E & A
and then between E & B, E & C and E & D.
To test the ECXV, start the unit and bring the setpoint
well below the refrigerated compartment temperat-
ure to ensure the unit is operating in Economized
Mode. Measure the AC voltage between pins E & A
and then between E & B, E & C and E & D
A voltage should be read by the digital voltmeter for
each pair of wires. If the reading is present on all of
the wire pairs there is a good signal coming from the
SVM.
c. If the reading is not present on one or more of the
wire pairs, check the wiring between the SVM and
the valve connector, or check the Control System for
proper model number Configuration.
Diagnostics -- Stepper Motor
The valve stepper motor may be tested using a stepper
motor drive tester or ohmmeter.
a. To test with a stepper motor drive tester (carrier
Transicold part number 07--00375--00), connect the 5
pin test cable to the valve connector, and the cable
wires to the tester in accordance with wire and termin-
al color. (if a 5 pin tester cable is required, order Carri-
er Transicold part number 07--00375--11
b. Set the step rate to 50 steps per second and either
open or close the valve. Each red LED should light se-
quentially until all four are illuminated. Any LED failing
to illuminate indicates an open on that leg and a need
to replace the drive.
c. To test with an ohmmeter, check the winding resist-
ance between connector pin A & E, B & E, C & E and
then between D & E. In normal ambient, the resist-
ance between the pins should be 46 ohms. If an infin-
ite or zero reading is observed, the piston and drive
motor assembly is to be replaced.
Diagnostics -- Valve
NOTE
If the valve failed pretest and passed the pre-
ceding diagnostic testing, this is an indication
that the valve internal mechanism is damaged
and the piston and motor assembly is to be re-
placed.

DATAGATE ACTIVATION & OPERATION VERIFICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
TO BE COMPLETED BY FIELD SERVICE PERSONNEL.
Reefer unit must be located outdoors for this procedure for GPS communication purposes.
1.) Disconnect the negative battery cable from the reefer battery.

2.) DataGate Activation:

For initial activation of system, locate “P7” Internal Battery connector on DataGate cable,
and plug the attached “P6” jumper into connector. (For best success, make the connection
quickly. If the electrical connection “makes-breaks-makes” while plugging the jumper
in, the PAR box can be tricked to go into another mode and the LED indicator light will stay
on continuously. In this case, follow the DataGate Reset instructions below.)
The LED will light for approx 1 minute, and go out permanently. This operation MUST
be witnessed. The DataGate is now energized and will transmit initialization
messages to the PAR LMS.
The unit is now energized and will transmit initialization messages to the PAR LMS
Operation Center.
Let the DataGate sit powered for 15 minutes (without the reefer powered or running) while
it completes its initialization by cycling through its Burn-In and In-Service Messages.
PAR LMS Operation Center will see that its system has come on line as the system
transmits its initialization messages.
Verify that PAR can see the DataGate’s “location”. Call Sal Farruggia at
703.433.6395.

Connected to Internal Extension Harness:

COMM, Power, & Fuel Sensor connectors.

Internal Battery Connections

Front view of DataGate.

3.) DataGate Reset:
To be performed in case the LED stays on continuously as described in Step 2 above.
For subsequent reset of the system, unplug the “P6” jumper from “P7” connector
(interrupting internal battery power), wait 45 seconds, then replug “P6” into “P7”.

4.) Reconnect the negative battery cable to the reefer battery.

5.) Turn the reefer’s APX controller START-RUN/OFF switch to START-RUN. Allow the reefer to run
for 15-30 minutes, changing the temperature set point at least once during this time, then turn
controller switch OFF. Turning the reefer unit off will force the DataGate to send temperature and
control information to the PAR LMS Operation Center.

6.) Record the serial number of the DataGate, along with the reefer’s serial number and fuel tank
capacity (if the Fuel Sensor option is installed). This information must be reported to PAR to
complete the installation.

DataGate Serial Number: ________________________.

Refrigeration Unit Serial Number: ________________________.

Fuel Tank Capacity: ________________________.

7.) DataGate Operation Verification & Troubleshooting:

Wait 15 minutes after reefer is shut down so that PAR system has time to transfer data to
PAR. (Data only transmits after unit power switch shutdown or alarm-shutdown events.)
Verify PAR operation with PAR Tech Support. Call Sal Farruggia @ 703.433.6395.
Call PAR for troubleshooting needs: Sal Farruggia @ 703.433.6395.
Sal Farruggia’s backup: Matt Paoni @ 703.433.6322 or Ryan Howe @
703.433.6324.

8.) DataGate & Reefer Unit Serial Number Association:

Provide data to PAR LMS to initiate PAR DataGate and APX reefer association.
Association requires the DataGate serial number, and the reefer unit’s serial number and
fuel tank capacity. Call Chris Fryc (pronounced Frye) @ 703.433.6397.

9.) Provide verification to Carrier (Syracuse) Engineering that DataGate Operation and Association
activities have been successfully completed. Call Jason Gough @ 315.432.7138. Engineering will
verify that the PAR system successfully transmits reefer unit operation data to the PAR LMS website.
