Unboxing Of The Gree Flexx 3 Ton 20 SEER Inverter System

Guys, I don't know how much video I'm going to have from today, but right now I'm going to pick up some equipment. I normally have everything that I install delivered to my shop, but this one is going to be that green inverter system, and I really want to unbox it, look at what we got, and compare it with what I have in the service manual. so that may be the video we have today is unboxing that piece of equipment and taking a good look at it stay tuned here it comes all right so that took almost an hour we are fixing to head back to the shop so we can open those up we're going to need to turn that around finally we can see what's in here all right i think this is what they're going to call their main board my two line voltages ground and as you see here we have yellow blue w1 red common and green's not being used sometimes these will have a d on them right now i'm looking to try and identify as much as i can looks like they make a lot of effort trying to keep that compressor cool or quiet one all right this there's a filter board oh here it is back here this is the filter board that filters the electricity you see it coming through here and then it goes out the top we're gonna have to look and see what's under here and here we have a massive coil i did not read about this in the manual i'm wondering is that part of this filter process these wires right here you see my fingers on they are UV and W those are my wires that go to my compressor right here so i'm assuming that this board here is our inverter board and looking out here this does require a TXV inside but if i'm not mistaken we do have electronic expansion valve that looks like a stepper motor right there and i was told that that's for adding sub cooling little reversing valve and yes there is a wait a minute here's another electronic expansion valve and here's another one of my pressure sensors they do have a magnetic valve in the manual so that must be that they use when it's cold they use hot gas and feed it back into the compressor to help keep temperatures up and that allows them to produce heat at very low temperatures but around here we don't we don't see temperatures down to like negative 22 it does look like most of this is easy to get to that i like i have worked on other mini split style systems that are really a pain it looks like they've taken some effort to try to keep this from rubbing and causing a leak now some of this in the manual the manual does not give pictures that show all of this now we're going to have dip switches somewhere on this board right here and they are upside down to what's in the manual i do plan on setting these before we get on the job and this is these switches here you can use to force defrost and put it in a pump down mode i think there's a charging mode there's all you can do all sorts of things with this plus this gives you your error codes i'm expecting on the back of this board there's like a i don't know if you can see that there's like a a heat sink that's sticking into the compartment with the condenser all right my wire is going to my motor here you can see that's a plastic blade it has a heater on the bottom of the cabinet one of these is going to be the heater i think it's this one i am looking to see where my wires from this might be my wires for my condenser fan motor normally we don't have problems with this filter board but you can normally you have problems with that inverter board back there and as you can see some of that's going to be rather difficult to get to and the line set connections that looks like seven eights yeah that looks big it's supposed to have three quarters and three eighths this is the three ton we do have valves here to keep pressure inside the system there are also valves on the air handler because there's freon in the evaporator coil as well so you only have to pull a vacuum on the line set if somebody can tell me what this coil is for i'd appreciate it because i have no idea most of it looks pretty straightforward is this another i think this is going to be another like pressure transducer we got sensors all over this thing i think finding them sometimes might be the might be difficult there's one right here supposed to be a discharge sensor that's probably it right there but anyway that's what it looks like on the inside i do believe it's going to be a very easy install i'm going to open that one up here and we're going to look at that as i was putting all this back together it's real easy for this to come out of its little groove and get pinched so be careful with that and this door right here y'all saw me tugging on it it lines up towards the bottom it has grooves that and uh little pieces that fit in the grooves here here here and over here so you start out with this like right here you put it in the grooves and you slide it up in order to put it in place so to take this off you have to undo the screws slide it down and pull it out all right this is the air handler i'm sorry i didn't have light when i was showing you all that once again we have L1 L2 yellow how come there's nothing hooked up to yellow i guess we don't need it yellow blue white red common and green so basically all you need is any kind of heat pump thermostat i am going to install 5kw in this which means i'm going to hook power up over here and not here so you don't do both your power goes through here if you hook up a heater kit so there's only one power supply we got a board back here with a fuse in it and as you see this blue and brown right here are my power in right here let me see where's the red one go i am not as familiar with this one maybe that wasn't a transformer that was over there because here's my transformer that actually looked more like a capacitor that was over there and look at this motor i have not seen a variable speed motor with a hookup like that that just means to me it might be a little more difficult little troubleshoot yeah some of this i may not understand yes we do have a fuse but i am right now not seeing a low voltage fuse not anywhere the heat strips actually fit back here you have to take this out and pull it out the way and you can install the heat strips that board somewhere on it has dip switches that you have to set uh change there they are at the bottom right there Right down there and they are also upside down But basically there are no sensors on this coil and all it needs is a TXV a regular TXV You can put any air handler on this condenser as long as it has a TXV same thing with the case coil Oh, it's just plain service port. These might be like regular pump down valves This is gonna have to be flipped over and I may do that in the coming days and see if I can't see what kind of valves we have yeah those are just like regular pump down valves on a condenser I'll show you and this looks large but that is a three-quarter opening on that I guess I don't see many three-quarter flare caps. Sorry if some of that video was poor quality to installing more of those getting to know them a little bit better systems like that are just right up my alley and whatnot it combines two things that i'm really interested in HVAC and inverters and converters i learned a lot of about those dealing with RVs this is kind of mixing the two i don't deal with many mini split type systems i'm really looking forward to that one and probably in the next couple days i'm gonna finish reading the manual enjoy the video if y'all can and tell me what the magnetic hole gets you on the next one.
