Direction of Rotation

NOTE: Improper rotation will result in reduced compressor
life.
The direction of rotation must be counterclockwise (as shown
by the arrow on the flywheel in Figure 7) while facing the
flywheel side of the pump. The motor nameplate will show
wiring information for counterclockwise rotation.
Figure 7 - Direction of rotation
The proper direction is very important. The direction of
rotation of 3 phase motors can be reversed by interchanging
any two motor-line leads. For single phase motors, refer to
the motor nameplate.
