2.6.2 Oil Cooler Fan Control
The Compressor Module temperature is controlled by managing module oil ow and temperature. The
module’s precise temperature control is critical to system performance and equipment life. Maintaining
proper temperature control also reduces the possibility of gas condensing into liquids during operation.
• Cooling fans require 24VDC, 4.5A (105 Watts) for the Compressor Module. Fan speed is controlled
by a 0-10VDC control signal that is applied to the yellow lead on the fan terminal strip. Standard
Compressor Modules use a nonlinear PTC thermistor to monitor oil temperature and provide a speed
signal.
• High temperature Compressor Modules use a linear NTC thermistor to monitor oil temperature. This
signal is available to support a customer-provided fan speed control circuit.
• All power connections are wired to terminal strips in a junction box on the Compressor Module.

PTC Thermistor
In Thermowell
The PTC Thermistor is nonlinear and switches to high
resistance in the 170-190°F (77-88°C) range.
