    Hello, I have a Mc Quay unit that has two circuits on it.

    Each circuit has two compressors on it, 6 stages of

    cooling. My problem is that the #1 circuit trips out on me

    and I have to turn the circuit off and on to reset it. The

    coils are flushed out and the 2nd circuit comes on and off

    no problem. My Pressures yesterday on the 1 circuit was

    76 low and 200 high on a 77 degree day with only one

    compressor running. With two compres. my press. are 63 low

    and 235 high. Does anybody have any ideas? Thanks.

    Check your airflow. If not that, what is your SH at full load on that circuit? Your shutting down on LP more that likely.

    What is the model of the machine?

    Is it a chiller or DX?

    What kinds of compressors and how many?

    Need more info.

    Hello, figured it out today. I had a guy find that the HP

    switch was cutting it out. A bad switch. It is a little

    low on freon. Sorry I didn't have that much info but

    thanks for your help.
