52C,P SERIES REMOVING THE COMPRESSOR — Follow the steps below to remove the compressor: 1. Disconnect all power to unit. 2. Remove unit from wall sleeve as detailed in the UNIT DISASSEMBLY section. The unit weighs up to 150 pounds. Seek assistance or use a lifting device when removing unit from wall sleeve. 3. If the unit is a heat pump: Disconnect the wire plug on the reversing valve solenoid and carefully remove the outdoor thermostat capillary from the outdoor coil. See Figure 32. 4

12. Install the new compressor and the new capillary assembly (the correct capillary and strainer may be obtained from Carrier RCD), into the unit. 13. Leak check the unit with 150 psi of nitrogen pressure. 14. For 52C,P units, the system should be evacuated from the high side to the low side to a minimum of 200 microns of mercury. This evacuation removes residual moisture from the system prior to charging. 15. For Heat Pump Units: Recharge unit to the nameplate refrigerant charge using
