Q:
Do you have any undergo with this brand source used with the Micro Air soft start on a 13.5K A/C ?
Moved To Our EasyStart Cognition Cant
A:
Unfortunately, we do non have whatever exact or client-reported experience with the Quip-All 2200I Generator. From perusal its user manual online, information technology appears to only have a rated output of 1700W and the 2200W is tagged as a "starting wattage", although on that point are some mix of footing used in the manual. This differs from the Honda EU2000i therein its 2000W military rank is registered as a "maximum wattage".
Our live has found that generators that number their high electrical power paygrad equally "surge" or "protrusive" electrical power cannot maintain wattage between their "rated" wattage some this "surge" surgery "starting" wattage for any duration of prison term. In so much cases, the generator will declare an clog fault erst IT exceeds its rated electrical power output. The Honda EU2000i generators are all different in this they have a "rated" wattage of 1600 and a "maximum" electric power of 2000W, and they can certainly maintain sweetie-state output up to 2000W indefinitely without declaring an overload fault.
We've tested our Honda under such conditions, evening over 100°F.
Hundreds of our customers have as well.
The to a higher place described difference is important because just about 13.5kBTU and certainly every 15kBTU rooftop A/C can exceed 1700W for their firm-state amperage draws, especially in extremely hot weather. So, using an EasyStart leave certainly allow you to start this A/C on this generator, but the generator may not be able to keep it running.
So in conclusion, we cannot reliably predict if the Quip-All will wreak for your particular A/C application presented the risk that it may declare overload the moment you surpass 1700W. We are thus not certain of what it will do.
We apologize that we cannot offer up you a more definitive reception. If you already ain this Quip-All 2200I generator, you can perform a load test by rigging up a special power cord that allows you to measure the output amperage exiting the author with a clamp-connected current probe (see intended photograph). Then you can keep adding load to imag what happens when you exceed 1700W (14.2A @120VAC) and are in operation closer to 2220W (18.3A @ 120V).

Q:
Prat the 366 operate a 220 volt 3 hp motor for my swamp cooler?
Can it operate the 6hp 220 volt compressor motor?
I am very electrically savoy.
I am aware of the get going plate in the line compressor motor.
Cant I just bypass it and will your unit take the current?
A:
Regarding your questions about the EasyStart 366, yes IT (ASY-366-X05) can be used to operate a 3HP 220V motor, providing this motor is a PSC type (CSIR operating theater CSCR).
For your 6HP 220V application, the larger EasyStart 366 (ASY-366-X06) bathroom be used, providing the motor is the typewrite described above.
I am not familiar with the terminology you put-upon, "jump plate". If you are referring to your motor's existing start capacitor, then yes, you must remove any active kickoff capacitor and start relays/PTCRs before installing the EasyStart.
Motors that use centrifugal switches are much more difficult to install EasyStarts into, and we do not recommend you attempt this without large research up head-on since motors of this type require disassembly to identify and isolate the various motor windings (if you don't already have an internal wiring diagram available from the centrifugal's manufacturing business).
Regarding your question about a bulk rate discount, unfortunately since the EasyStart 366 is already about uncomplete the price of the EasyStart 364, it is very cost-constrained. In fact, we reluctantly had to raise the price of only the 366 back in May due to cost increases in its components and manufacturing costs. Therefore, we cannot offer you any discounts happening the EasyStart 366 at this time.

Q:
Is there a way to run two AC's off of one Easy Start unit.
I'd like to eventually design a solar system for my new Airstream with 13,500 and 15,000BTU units.
A:
Although it would not be electrically impossible to telegram a single EasyStart into 2 A/C units, it would be half-baked, would compromise the EasyStart's ability to monitor the compressor during steady-state procedure, and very likely cost to a higher degree just buying a forward EasyStart (in wiring, components and Department of Labor). This is because the cross-wiring that you would have to add between the A/C units, plus a crew of switching devices (power relays) to tie in the individual wires to one compressor at a fourth dimension, would finish being a nightmare. Please recognize that I'm not telling you this because I desire you to buy 2 EasyStarts instead of 1. These are just the facts.
Many of our customers with trailers with 2 A/C units designate only one A/C Eastern Samoa the just A/C they will manipulation when they're in operation on their lone 2000W generator. Of course, their choice in doing so trades off the ability to run both A/Cs on a single 30A utility program assemblage OR on 2 paralleled generators, but we can totally understand the alternative made in this case since not everyone can yield 2 EasyStarts.
In your case, if you intend to setup a star organisation with a single 4000W inverter (or larger) to run both A/Caesium, you would base to gain much and in fact would almost require the benefit of installing an EasyStart into both A/C units. That right smart, information technology won't matter to which A/C is cycling on at any donated time. The same is honorable for the situation with a 30A utility hookup (3600W). I did an installation into an Airstream with both a 13.5k and a 15kBTU A/C back in February and wrote a cover, which is attached (please ignore the fact that the EasyStarts back off then used the now-obsolete blacken enclosing).
Alternately, if you intend to single feed one A/C with your solar/inverter system (2000W), then you'd only need 1 EasyStart and you'd have to choose the A/C that would only be powered when using the inverter as the might source.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
I'm writing from my Backwash roof.
In looking at the write out up you sent me in your old email, and the uncommitted space within my ac's electrical dialog box, I get no idea how I'm going to fit the new albescent enclosure in there?!?
It appears larger than the Shirley Temple Black enclosure in the right up and there's no way to simply "snap" disconnected the plastic mounting tabs on this envelopment care the disgraceful one.
Is there a way to mount it remotely??
A:
Execute not install the red-hot elan EasyStart inside of the electrical enclosure because it won't fit as you institute out.
It gets affixed outside now, and because it is IP65 (fully weatherproof), that is not a problem.
Follow the detailed instruction templet for the Dometic Penguin II that is available in the Manuals & Resources tab on the EasyStart webpage.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
I was wondering if your product will help me I have got 2 15000 btu a/c units on my fifth wheel I was thinking this would help along starting and I may be able to reduce the size of generator I need.
A:
Yes, installing an EasyStart along your two 15kBTU air conditioners should allow you to reduce the size of your generator and you would even be able to operate both 15kBTU A/Cs connected a 30A utility hookup.
Acknowledged, the total wattage requisite by twin 15kBTU systems would not leave of absence overmuch headroom for other appliances on a 30A cord, but being able to fulfil such surgical operation demonstrates the powerful capabilities of the EasyStart.
You'll need to budget about 1800W for each of your 15k systems, so that is 3600W total.
Beyond this, you would need to budget for your appliances (refrigerator, water heater, microwave) and your converter/battery charger, and whatever power management you are willing to live with.
The good news is that you will not need any extra generator capacity to account for the inauguration of your A/C units since EasyStart wish cut the starting upsurge to be only a hardly a amps higher than the resolute-state power requirement of the A/Cs.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
I have a 2022 wash classic and would like to install your product on one or both of my air conditioners, can you recommend an installer in the Jacksonville, Florida area?
A:
Please visit our Dealer page
---------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
In watching your installation picture I was conduct to believe your box needs to be protected from the weather.
Is your box weather proof enough to be left out even if I acquire the outer cover off and spray the gyrate with water to clean it?
A:
Eastern Samoa it turns out, the pitch-dark-enclosure EasyStart 364 that was old in the telecasting over one year agone (time flies), was discontinued this outgoing spring in stead of a newer enclosure version that is IP65 and fully weatherproof.
Therefore, you throne mount the EasyStart in the outdoor area that I expressly forbade in the video.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
I have very finite approach to "shore power" (utility provided) to complete the 5 starts for the learning process.
I do have an 8000/10000 watt generator with a 120v-30amp output.
Would this generator power suffice for the learning procedure.
After installation I plan on using a 2000 Watt generator.
A:
If you were to usance your 8000W author to follow through the 5-starting learning process in situ of a utility source, that would be totally fine.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
I deliver been watching initiation procedure on YouTube and would like to know if the clamp on meter is needed or non or if they use of goods and services single honorable to certify results.
A:
The clamp-on ammeter used in the YouTube picture was only meant to demonstrate the results. You do non need one of these for your installation or for your earning starts.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
Do you have wiring instructions for airxcel 48000 ac units?
A:
The 48000 model serial for Coleman corresponds their high-profile fashion mode family, in which on that point are several different models:
- Mach 1
- Ernst Mach 3
- Mach 3 Postscript
- Mach 3 Plus
- Mach 15
I have a 13500 btu air conditioner on my rv currently but I was wondering if it would cost in my prizewinning interest to bargain the 368 model just in case I buy a different RV with a big air conditioner unit in the future.
Would on that point be any issues using the 368 model on my current unit that I should eff some?
A:
The EasyStart 364 is designed to underpin busy a 36,000BTU air conditioning, which far exceeds the size of some RV air conditioners happening the securities industry today.
The EasyStart 364 (ASY-364-X20-IP) volition therefore cover whatsoever 120V R.V. air conditioner you might purchase down the road.
The EasyStart 368 is meant for air conditioning systems larger than 36,000BTUs, like marine chillers and commercial/residential A/C systems up to 6 tons (72,000 BTUs).
---------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
Is the 366 board the Saame as the 364 board.
I was guessing that it was and that I could mount up the 366 board in an enclosure mounted on the outside of the aircon and route the wires inside and would sole need board for the cap if needed.
Cause you know the approximate size of the cap needful by the 366 board?
Is it different then the ceiling needed by the 364 board? Thanks again for your help.
A:
The EasyStart 366 display panel is non the synoptic as the board inside of the EasyStart 364.
They have different geometries and connection points, each bespoke suited for either electric box installation on standoffs (366) or mounting at bottom of the custom IP65 enclosure (364).
Electrically and functionally, the EasyStart 364 (-X36) is equivalent to the EasyStart 366 (-X05).
If you wanted to usance the EasyStart 366 and mount it in its own enclosure outside of the A/C building block itself, you certainly could do that.
The dimensions of the EasyStart 366 board are listed on its site page at this link.
The start capacitor best suited for your 12.5kBTU portable A/C is 88-106MFD/250V (CAP-110-X00).
This is the same set out cap that is inside of the EasyStart 364 ASY-364-X20-IP.
The new EasyStart 364 variants use different start caps.

Q:
I take a small travel trailer with a Samlex Solar PST-2000-12 PST Serial publication Pure Sine Wave Inverter.
I have a 400watt star set upwards with 200ah of LiFePO4 batteries.
My prevue is a Rockwood Miniskirt Lite 2104S, with a Coleman / Mach 15000 btu A/C whole ( i dont know the good example off the upmost of my head).
Would something like the Easy Start 364 likely allow me to wake the A/C from my 2000watt inverter (which has a peak to 3500watt surge).
If so, should I look at the: 115V-solely RV A/C (-X20-IP) OR Standard A/C (-X36-IP)
Also, what is your return policy if unused or defective
A:
Arsenic you establish in your research, the EasyStart 364 (ASY-364-X20-Information processing) is the appropriate model for your 15kBTU Coleman Mach.
It should let you to start and run your A/C happening your 2000W inverter.
Please be advised though that some 15k A/C will deplete upwards to 95% of the 2000W steady-state electrical capacity of your inverter, so you get exercise some strict power management in your travel trailer, especially with devices equal the charger (converter) which rump jump in and start drawing off upwardl to 1000W in volume (rapid) charge mode.
Most customers have to manually turn their refrigerators and water heaters to propane mode in parliamentary law to operate their A/C on a 2000W inverter or generator.
Our warrant policy is 2 years, reparation or afloat replacement, for any defects or failures not referable abuse.
Our normal return policy if fresh has a 25% restocking fee.
Delight reckon all of these policies at the bottom of our main website page.

Q:
I am interested in buying the captioned product for my boat so i can use a Honda 2kw generator to run a reverse cycle air conditioner system consisting of a 16,000 BTU self restrained air conditioning unit.
Can you delight propose which model should I take. Where I untaped we use 220-240volts so the Ac is designed to run happening that voltage.
A:
The worthy you need is the EasyStart 364 variant ASY-364-X36-IP, which works for 240V marine applications prepared to 36k.
It is available at this link (choose the -X36 from the pull-down menu).
---------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
What EasyStart 364 so I need to order for a Cruisair Marine 16K AC?
The x-20 or the x-36?
A:
If your Cruisair 16k maritime A/C is 115V, then the ASY-364-X20-IP will body of work, but if it is 230V, you mustiness use the ASY-364-X36-IP.
For all of our marine customers, we recommend the -X36 heedless of voltage since IT will have the truncated-cycle prevention timer disabled (something not needed in a transport A/C).
---------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
Has the Microair been tested with the original Yamaha 2000is?
I have a 15k AC unit.
A:
The Small-Air EasyStart 364 has been time-tested by some of our customers with the primary Yamaha EF2000iS generator. Unfortunately, the results are not affirmatory with 15kBTU systems.
A it turns out, although the EasyStart allowed the compressor to start on the Yamaha EF2000iS, the generator could not keep the compressor running as its occurrent draw increased in a higher place around 1500W as the system rapidly warm up.
This resulted in a very indepth investigation which was discussed lengthily on the Airstream owners forum at this link.
The stopping point careworn was that the EF2000iS was not truly a 2000W generator, like the Honda EU2000i. In fact, Yamaha did in time know this and they came out with their EF2000iSv2 model. This Yamaha model can in fact lead off and run a 15kBTU arrangement, from ECO mode, just like the Honda EU2000iS. We've had multiple confirmed reports from our customers on this.
Sol, given the generator that you have, we do not recommend that you buy out and set up an EasyStart since you will probable not achieve the craved results. I apologize for this, but as you can well understand, information technology's undue to a limitation in the EasyStart but as an alternative the generator itself.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
I am interested in your soft start unit of measurement and was wondering if it would adapt to a window Ac easily.
I have a generator that is 1600 watts running and 2000 Isaac Watts surge.
The alternating current unit is 12K BTUs.
The Ac unit compressor will not start.
A:
Yes, the EasyStart 364 is universal to a windowpane A/C unit.
The wiring is essentially the Sami as whatsoever other air conditioner.
The alone gainsay may represent finding enough space wrong of the A/C's enclosure to mount up the EasyStart.
Fortunately, the EasyStart is IP65 (fully weatherproof), thusly you can mount it just about anywhere inside.
We manage ask though that it non be mounted directly in the rhetoric exhaust.
As far as your generator goes, we have confirmed reports and test information that customers take been healthy to start and run their A/C systems happening Honda EU2000i, Yamaha EF2000iSv2, and Westinghouse 2000iXLT.
If your 2000W source is a different make and model than these, we cannot guarantee that it will piece of work since not complete 2000W generators are built alike.
Some cannot nourish the necessary wattage to support even a 12kBTU A/C, especially on a passionate day when the calm-state wattage may exceed 1600W.

Q:
I was inquisitive on the easystart 364 what typewrite of warranty they feature.
Lets say it breaks within 9 months would you guys replace information technology?
This leave be going happening a dometic penguin 2 13,500 B.Th.U..
A:

Q:
I purchased an EasyStart 364 few months ago.
I'm in process of having Slipstream Orange County in Austral California install information technology for us. I undergo provided them with the MicroAir website and a series of Airforum posts about how to install, simply would it be possible for you to pass along a plump for contact name/email/phone at MicroAir if they have questions?
This is the very first install they have through with.
I'm aspirant that once they figure IT out they can volunteer this as a standard service to other customers. I even encouraged them to think about reselling IT Eastern Samoa I suspicious a lot of their customers would be interested. Airstream OC is also the same company as Airstream Los Angeles and AIrstream Inland Conglomerate, so if we can help them number IT knocked out once you should have all of SoCal covered with a knowledgeable installer.
A:

Q:
I have a infrigidation system that used a 1hp Endurance contest 110v motor that uses a belt to drive a Climatrol open aspect compressor.
The motor is CSCR.
The run capacitor has two terminals and is fed with two wires, brown and purple.
Neither terminal is labeled and I can't determine which terminal information technology to be connected to the EasyStart's orange tree electrify and which is to cost which wire is to be spliced to the brown wire. Do you let a wiring diagram for my installation.
A:
EasyStart has been installed successfully into Baldor and Leeson motors of the typecast you possess represented (not yet Marathon), but I must advise it is a difficult prospect.
The reason is, even though these motors may be CSCR, as you have already discovered, they don't cater an internal wiring plot, nor are the conducting wire connections easy to anatomy extinct.
As wel, there is likely a centrifugal switch that is used to switch in/out the bulge out capacitor. This device typically must also be located and bypassed in order to conducting wire in the EasyStart (depending on the overall design of the motor windings).
Some motors of the type you describe wont dual run windings to treat different voltages, and approximately also split the start winding with a center tap, applying the start capacitor at one point and the run capacitor at another point. It can get very complicated A compared to the relatively simple task of installing an EasyStart into a HVAC compressor application.
The other challenge is most infrigidation systems are configured to hold their discharge and suction pressures subsequently the compressor shuts down, not allowing them to equal. This pressure differential during the following compressor startup therefore requires so much high torque than it would if other than, thus making the work of any soft starter much more difficult (almost forcing a "toilsome start" to occur).
Most air conditioning compressors allow the system pressures to equalize during their off time, so the next startup will be less pissed and application of a soft start such every bit the EasyStart will be much more flourishing.
In your case, since your refrigeration compressor is bash driven and not direct-drive, that will equiprobable assistanc the opening torque requirement a little bit, just we cannot predict what will happen here and if the EasyStart will work, with any degree of foregone conclusion.
In spite of the above points, installing an EasyStart into your infrigidation drive is feasible.
I told you the in a higher place not to warn you, but to make dependable you are aware of the challenges this volition involve. It could take a fair number of research and work on your part.
First , I would recommend that you contact the manufacturer of your refrigeration system operating theatre Marathon (Regal-Beloit) themselves to see if you can get a copy of their centrifugal's internal wiring diagram - using the model number off of the motor's dataplate label.
We have had just success with other drive manufacturers such as Baldor and Leeson in terms of their willingness to allow internal motor wiring diagrams, but we have little to no experience with Marathon. You may exist able to find the diagram online as symptomless.
I just perused the Regal-Beloit website and their Marathon motor subsection, and I was able to find some wiring diagrams for some of the motors listed.
You may get lucky if you search for your motor's model number or can find it in the listing.
Second , after you find the diagram, please send it to me and I testament draw in where the EasyStart wish conducting wire and send it back to you. After that, you'll be competent to chequer if all the wire connections that are necessary are accessible, and then produce your decision on whether or not to try installing an EasyStart.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
I have arranged an EasyStart and have been reading the set up instructions.
The video says to run along forth shore power for the primary 5 starts for the arrangement to learn.
I get into't possess that option at this time. What are the ramifications if I run my Ac without the shore power?
I believe I register/heard that the system buns be reset (once I pay back to shore power) but so Army for the Liberation of Rwanda have not establish how to do that in the instructions.
Can you please advise.
A:
The instructions on how to reinitialize the EasyStart's 5-start learning process can be found in the installation manual at this radio link.
In cases where you have no utility power on hand and subsequently have atomic number 102 choice but to function a generator to conduct the 5-starting time learning process, always prepar sure that when conducting the 5-start eruditeness process, whatsoever ECO mode is turned Remove and all opposite auxiliary loads in the drone are also turned off at their circuit breakers - almost especially the converter/battery battery charger.
After the 5-head start encyclopaedism process is completed, ECO mode can cost turned back on.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
Looks alike my wiring is consistent with the 6-wire conformation.
I was competent to take to the woods it with the eu2000i nowadays. Worked great!
3 amps ahead compressor coming happening. And ~14.2amps with it on.
Will be happy to sell my honda with nonconvergent kit.
Any advantage to the 7-telegram contour?
A:
Glad to hear everything is working well for you! Thank you.
In your case and for any R.V. rooftop diligence with a dual run capacitor, you're fortunate with the 6-wire configuration.
The reasonableness is the 7-wire configuration adds the current through the run electrical condenser (via the RC terminal) to what the EasyStart 366 monitors, to boot to the current IT already controls and monitors to the melt down winding and to the start capacitor.
The current through the run electrical condenser is relatively littler compared to the incumbent finished the run winding & start winding during startup and during steady-state pouring operation (5-10%) and doesn't convert really often.
So without information technology, the EasyStart however makes the right decisions during the 5-learning starts.
Also, if the RC last is used to link the function capacitor, since your model A/C uses a dual run cap that supports some the compressor and the fan, then EasyStart then starts exceedingly and measurement a very lowly portion of the fan current as well (what goes through with its start winding through its run cap).
This current is very limited and has no effect along normal embark on-ups and running operation; nevertheless, this fan current could sham the 5-start learning process if somehow the winnow speeds were set differently during all of the 5 different starting trials, thus throwing dispatch the nice current measurements organism made by the EasyStart during those trials, possibly resultant in the EasyStart choosing a to a lesser degree optimal start profile.

Q:
I have an Airstream 26U that has the three-fold 13.5k and 15k A/C units on it.
I am in the process of buying a Yamaha or Honda 3000watt inverter/generator.
What would be the best way to install a soft-starting time with this application.
Could I actually run both A/C's simultaneously with a soft start installed on for each one unit of measurement, operating theatre would I want to select one over the past and simply install a soft-start on one of them, if so - which one?
A:
Your situation is not uncommon.
Installing an EasyStart 364 into both your 13.5k and 15k A/C units will allow you to start and run some A/Cesium connected a 30A utility hook-risen, operating theater pop out and run either A/C on a unmarried 2000W generator.
Unfortunately, a 3000W generator is not quite enough to run both A/Cs together.
You need an absolute minimum of 3500W (29A @120VAC) to do that.
Numerous people with dual, paralleled 2000W generators (4000W total) choose to install EasyStarts into both A/Cs so they can run both with some generators, or they pick a single A/C into which to instal EasyStart soh they butt operate on a single generator.
For the latter case, the A/C you choose is up to you since in that respect are trade-offs.
Choosing the 15k for a single EasyStart induction will provide you a greater sum of cooling for widowed A/C operation, but it testament leave you with less leftover generator capacity to power your trailer's auxiliary dozens.
Alternately, choosing the 13.5k for a single EasyStart installation will furnish you less cooling, but greater auxiliary load capability.
For 2000W generators, we recommend the latter case.
In your situation, if you do choose to purchase a 3000W generator, you can for sure afford to install the single EasyStart into the 15k.

Q: A: The best way to mount the EasyStart in the recommended locations is aside victimisation 3M double-nonplus effervesce record.
Some questions I possess after looking at the diagrams.
From the compressor, the blue wire gets cut, stripped and both ends set out connected to the black wire from the well-heeled start?
The covered wire from the compressor gets cut stripped-down and one end gets connected to the chromatic wire?
What happens to the other end of the white wire?
Or does it live with IT too?
Sure don't want to do a smoke test.
How would you recommend attaching the unit to the mounting locations?
I've thought about using aluminum ducting tape.
What you represented for the EasyStart's BLACK and Dark-brown wires is correct.
The WHITE telegram from the EasyStart connects to the same terminal bundle on the be given cap from which you removed the compressor's ovalbumin run winding wire (that was then spliced to the EasyStart's Brown University wire).
Lastly, the ORANGE wire from the EasyStart connects to the opposite word terminal constellate on the test cap where the compressor's red start winding wire is connected.
That way you don't risk damaging anything by using screws or other fasteners into the evaporator air box.
The 3M foam tape stands up to weather and temperature, and once it cures, it is real strong.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
Are the Easystart conciliatory starters only for use if a RV/Motorhome is going to be victimization a generator?
In other quarrel can an easystart atomic number 4 used in all physical phenomenon situations i.e.: 50amp, 30amp, Generator?
Even out when we are on 50 amps it seems that the heat pumps embark on very bouldery/hard and just wondering if information technology would do any good?
Last question; what every has to be bought?
The appetizer, control display and control board?
A:
Yes, the EasyStart 364 can be victimised all told situations, utility power and generator.
It obviously provides its benefit of dramatically shrivelled startup amperage with every last exponent sources.
As well the about sought-after do good of organism able to set off and run a unwed A/C on a 2000W generator like the Honda EU2000i, many other customers as wel purchase EasyStarts so they can run 2 A/Cs on a 30A hook-up (or two 2000W generators), when normally a 50A hook-up would be required.
Likewise, EasyStart provides sophisticated compressor fault monitoring during unagitated-say operation that protects your compressor better than any OEM factory configuration.
We believe EasyStart hindquarters and does extend the spirit of any compressor.
Besides the EasyStart 364 itself available at this link, you only need some miscellaneous bend terminals to accomplish the wiring, and some fasteners (sheet metal screws) or 3M double-stick foam tape to jump on the EasyStart.
It is IP65, and so it is fully weatherproof.
We offer a low-cost installing kit up at this linkfor those who get into't have light memory access to the necessary kink up terminals and foam tape.

Q:
Needing to purchase a unit ASAP.
Trying to determine the appropriate unit of measurement. Have a 4 ton.
Liquid ecstasy ampacity unknown.
Would the smaller or larger building block embody ideal?
A:
You'Ra exit to need the larger EasyStart 368 for a 4-ton system at this link.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Q:
I just detected that the EasyStart 368 typically requires "5 learning starts" on utility power.
That isn't an option in this case.
Is there a pinafore to bypass Beaver State a elbow room to ram down it on generator ?
A:
Here are the trade-offs and realities you'll own to contend with.
The very premiere learning come out is the most critical.
It is this start that may exist the one to stimulate or bust your entire endeavour at learning connected a generator versus on utility tycoo.
This is because the start live reduction during this first learning start is lone about 40% (and not the 65-70% you'll get when the learning is done).
Hence, if your A/C will not start at all on generator without the EasyStart, there is a chance - probably lower than 50% - that it will be not be able to do the early showtime with EasyStart.
Chances are, it should work, but we cannot guarantee it given we assume't know anything about your generator.
If it doesn't work, the compressor will stall on this same first learning start and the EasyStart will immediately shut it down.
The EasyStart leave then save re-attempting this same first of all encyclopedism start on subsequent starting attempts, by design, because it never worked and it won't allow itself to progress through the 5-starting time sequence unless the previous pop out was successful and the associated data was self-collected.
Second, there is a jumper connected the EasyStart that prevents the learning swear out and keeps the EasyStart using a "default" starting ramp visibility and parameters, which really corresponds to the prime learning start.
We NEVER recommend that customers use this unless they are disagreeable to do some troubleshooting.
In your encase, I would non recommend this either.
So, IT's adequate you if you deficiency to remove the chance connected it.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Q: A: Regarding the warranty, this query has been asked many times before. This is what we tell all of our customers: The EasyStart is wired only into the compressor circuit of the A/C, then information technology has no effect along any of the separate components.
HI, wanted to know if Airstream dealers install your product (easy start)?
Looking at a sportsman 22 with a 13,500 British thermal unit AC and want to run precisely one Honda 2000.
If they don't, get along you know if installing it after purchase voids the race warranty?
A few Race dealers or so the country are installation EasyStarts now, but information technology's less than 5.
If your particular dealer is willing, I can serve them with the necessary instructions Oregon training.
It's very straightforward and it does not require a highly advanced plane of mechanical and electrical know-how.
I cannot speak to the Wash warranty itself.
The primary concern is the warrantee with Dometic, the manufacturer of the rooftop A/Atomic number 55 connected the newer Airstreams.
When asked, Dometic surgery any manufacturer bequeath always United States Department of State that any limiting of their equipment will violate their warranty.
Furthermore, the EasyStart better protects your compressor than the manufacturing plant contour because of its 5 diagnostic faults that it continuously monitors for during steady-country surgical operation, steady after its unique little start sequence is completed.
The EasyStart hind end be installed in much a right smart that it tin easily live abstracted and the factory configuration restored.
So, we tell customers that if the A/C unit develops an issue unrelated to the compressor during its warranty period, you force out legitimately remove the EasyStart, restore the factory configuration, and submit the unit for warranty.
If however, a warrant-period outlet with the A/C unit involves the compressor, then we at Micro-Air would shape with you operating theatre your installer to properly diagnose the cause.
If IT's the EasyStart itself, we would, of course, repair it or put up you a replacement within our 2-year factory warranty full point.
If the compressor itself developed a job because of the EasyStart, the likeliness of which is near zero, and then we would make for with you to get it resolved. I arse happily composition that of the thousands of EasyStarts we rich person oversubscribed, none have caused whatever premature compressor failures. In fact, the opposite is quite real: EasyStart will better protect and probable extend the lifetime of any compressor because its soft starting sequence is less abusive (automatically and electrically) and because its 5 diagnostic faults constantly monitor the compressor for any operational problems. At last, the decision is totally yours. If you are non comfortable with the above, then we don't recommend that you install an EasyStart.
If you are, past great! Rest assured, we wish place upright behind our ware to support you.
