Note 1: Restart stated in terms of differential pressure between crankcase and inlet port.
Note 2: The model 520 requires a start capacitor and a switching mechanism (mechanical or electronic).
Note 3: Pressure flow stated assumes atmospheric inlet pressure. Vacuum flows stated assume atmospheric discharge pressure.
Note 4: T
 he model 520 requires additional cooling air flow to maintain adequate motor winding temperatures (Class B) and head temperatures. Requirements vary with
system design. Consult factory for details.
Note 5: Vapor

pressure will vary due to the refrigerant used and temperature. Regardless of these varying conditions, suction pressure (inlet port) must be limited so as to
not exceed thermal protection device minimum open temperatures as listed above or the motor will shut off power. Therefore, a margin is recommended to avoid
nuisance trips.
