Scope:
Perform duties to test the electrical operation of HVAC units following installation of structural, mechanical, electrical, and condensing components to ensure the compliance with product specifications, working within the limits of standard procedures and making decisions as to set up and test operations and sequencing.
Essential Duties:
· Conduct start of shift team meetings leading morning stretches and communicate schedules, priorities, safety and production issues, and other information necessary to ensure that all team members are aware of shift requirements and pending issues.
· Maintain Run Test communication board updating required information on a daily basis, such as but not limited to; safety, on-time completion, first pass yield.
· Assist run test technicians in trouble-shooting as needed.
Pretest Protocols:
· Move units to designated location for testing.
· Work from Glovia, job folder, ETQ, Production Schedule and QMS systems to refer to BOM, operating requirements and standards, work instruction and in-process inspection checklists, schedules, and any related nonconforming issues.
· Verify job number, revision level of drawings, schematics, specifications, and all energized against the BOM. Ensure energized components are installed correctly.
· Visually inspect units to ensure compliance with cosmetic and assembly standards.
· Inspect electrical control panel and perform pull tests to ensure terminals are properly connected.
· Inspect electrical control panel and perform pull tests to ensure terminals are properly connected.
Dry Test Protocols:
· Perform ground check verifying no electrical shorts on any load carrying conductors.
· Phase high voltage wires and verify ohms on all motors and compressors.
· Perform Hi Pot testing to validate power flow through high voltage wires and energy source compliance.
· Energize unit at 120 volts and test all components for proper operation and safety. Test electrical devices, wiring, air flow, sensors, and safety devices and calibrate per specifications.
· Manually manipulate the program in the controller to validate proper inputs and outputs.
Run Test Protocols:
· Refer to Lock-Out Tag-Out and Energize/De-Energize Procedures and energize unit at proper voltage/amperage per specifications.
· Test proper operation and direction of blowers, fans, and wheels. Balance fans/blowers to engineering specifications. Document test results on specific data recording sheet.
· Operate crankcase heaters to ensure functioning properly by measuring amperage draws.
· Inspect and record pressure drops and fan rpm’s per engineering specifications.
Run Test Protocols (Continued):
· Adjust gas valves on burner system. Hook up to gas or electric and check conformance to functionality and temperature specifications, and observe amperage pulled to ensure compliance with specifications. Ensure shut offs operate in compliance with specifications.
· Set airflow switches/timers, measure and record voltage/amperage of energized components to ensure accuracy of functions.
· Measure and record sub-cool and superheat readings, as well as suction and liquid line pressures.
· Run unit in auto mode to simulate required conditions of operation and ensuring that all components engage and disengage as designed, and that gauges report accurately. Investigate and report on causes of any failures.
· Test for heat or refrigerant leaks and pinpoint leak when found.
· Visually inspect for water migration with condensation. Ensure that all chambers are properly sealed. Close all liquid solenoid valves for shipment.
· Troubleshoot failed units and make defined adjustments. Create DPU in QMS for defective units or parts. Make routine installations of replacement components or notify production for the need of replacement parts. Record all adjustments.
· Apply final inspection sticker to ECAN signifying all requirements are met and pass inspection.
· Move units to designated locations for next phases of manufacturing or shipping.
