DUCT CONNECTIONS
DUCT
NON-FLAMMABLE
Install all ductwork to and from unit in accordance with all COLLAR
applicable codes. Refer to the figure at right for suggested
method of connecting supply air duct work.

Duct construction must allow the unit to operate within duct

external static pressure limits as shown on job submitals.

Units designed to operate with ductwork may be damaged

if operated without intended ductwork attached.
SUPPLY AIR
Ducts passing through an unconditioned space must be in- DUCT FLANGE
sulated and covered with a vapor barrier to prevent mois-
ture condensation and to provide more economical opera-
tion.

AIR DISCHARGE CONVERSION

Units are shipped for upflow operation, but may be con-

verted for any of the discharged patterns illustrated at right.
Convert as follows:

1. Remove the panels from the blower section.

2. Remove screws located inside casing corner angles

which hold coil and blower sections together.

3. Rotate blower section for the air discharge pattern

desired.

4. Replace panels.

REFRIGERANT CONNECTIONS
NOTE: REFRIGERANT CONNECTIONS SHOULD
BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED AIR
CONDITIONING/REFRIGERATION TECHNICIAN
All field leak and pressure testing should be done in accor-
dance with local code requirements.
Hard drawn copper should be used where no appreciable
amount of bending around pipes or other obstructions is nec-
essary. If soft copper is used, care should be taken to avoid
sharp bends which may cause a restriction.
Where refrigerant lines pass through a wall, pack fiber glass
insulation and a sealing material around the refrigerant lines
to reduce vibration and to maintain some flexibility in the
lines.
The refrigerant lines should be supported by suitable hang-
ers, brackets or clamps.
Braze all copper to copper joints. Do not use soft solder.
Never braze or solder the liquid and suction lines together. If
it is desirable to tape or wire the liquid and suction lines to-
gether for support purposes, they must be completely insu-
lated from each other.
During the brazing process it is necessary to use an inert gas
to avoid internal tube oxidation. Nitrogen is recommended
as it is fairly inert and inexpensive.
Installing the refrigerant mains
The units are evacuated and dehydrated at the factory and
shipped with a holding charge of nitrogen. The connections
are terminated with a copper disc brazed over the ends.
Before starting installation of the mains, be sure the unit has
not developed a leak in transit by connecting a pressure gauge
to the access port. If pressure still exists, the circuit may be
considered leak free. If pressure does not exist, the unit must
be evacuated along with the field installed refrigerant piping.
NOTE: To minimize the possibility of system failure due to
dirt and moisture, a filter-drier must be installed in each liq-
uid line as close to the evaporator as possible. Filter-driers
are not supplied with the evaporator blowers. They are sup-
plied with the matching condensing unit.
DRAIN CONNECTIONS
The drain line must be trapped because the coil is located on
the negative side of the supply air blower. It must also be
protected from extreme temperatures.
The drain line is usually located on the same end of the coil
section as the refrigerant connections. The line should be
insulated where moisture drippage will be odjectionable or
cause damage to the area.
The 3” dimension must equal or exceed the negative static
pressure developed by the supply air blower. If it does not,
the condensate may not drain properly and may overflow the
drain pan. The trap must be at least 2.5” deep to maintain a
water seal under all operating conditions, especially during
blower start-up.

RECOMMENDED DRAIN PIPING
Connection of interconnection pipes
1. Make the interconnection piping connections in
accordance with the national and local codes. Use inert gas
to prevent oxidation.
2. Pressure test system to 300psig, and use water-soap
solution to check for leaks on all joints.
3. Vacuum the system to:
• 500 microns or less for systems with reciprocating
compressors
• 200 microns or less for systems with rotary compressors
4. Charge with Refrigerant 22 (R22).
5. Insulate all relevant piping to and from fan coil unit, and
inside fan coil unit where piping extends past condensate drain
pan.
6. Ensure that any existing space between the piping and the
wall or floor is properly sealed.
NOTE: Units are supplied with a holding safety charge
of nitrogen. It is the responsibility of the installing
contractor to properly charge the air-conditioning
system.

bulb clamps found with the TXV valve in its box. Insulate the
bulb from environment using cork tape.
If necessary to align pulleys, the housing of the twin groove
motor pulley may extend 25% of its length beyond end of
motor shaft.
BLOWER ADJUSTMENT
Always align twin groove pulleys using the stationary web.
Adjust evaporator fan speed to meet job site conditions. The
RPM of the supply air blower will depend on the required
CFM, the unit accessories and the static resistances of both
the supply and the return air duct systems. With this informa
tion, the RPM for the supply air blower can be determined
from the Fan Performance Data shown on pages 7 and 8.

To change fan speeds:

STRAIGHT EDGE MUST BE
1. Shut off unit power supply. PARALLEL WITH BELT
2. Loosen belt by loosening fan motor mounting nuts.
MOVABLE FLANGE
3. Loosen movable pulley flange setscrew (see diagram)
4. Screw movable flange toward fixed flange to increase speed
or away from fixed flange to decrease speed. Increasing MOTORS AND FAN SHAFTS
PULLEYS MUST BE PARALLEL

mum speed specified in Table 1. SET SCREWS
5. Set movable flange at nearest keyway of pulley hub and
tighten setscrew.
FIXED FLANGE

SINGLE GROOVE
To align fan and motor pulleys:
1. Loosen fan pulley setscrews.
2. Slide fan pulley along fan shaft.
3. Make angular alignment by loosening motor from mount-
ing plate.

 PREPARATION FOR START-UP
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
NOTE: ALL ELECTRICAL WORK SHOULD BE
CARRIED OUT BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL
AND CONFORM TO LOCAL CODES AND
STANDARDS.
1. Before installing the air conditioning unit, ensure the
electrical supply is adequate for the operating voltage and
current required by the unit as specified on unit nameplate
and electrical schematic diagram.
2. The installation of a bipolar switch with a delayed type
fuse in the circuit before the supply cable is strongly
recommended. Omission of this fuse may increase the risk
of fire in the event of a short circuit in the unit.
3. It is imperative that the unit be earthed before use. If no
earth connection is available on the main supply, connect to
earth with copper wire. The manufacturer accepts no liability
if this safety requirement is not observed.
START-UP INSTRUCTIONS
POWER OFF
Clean dirt, dust and other construction and installation debris
from unit interior. Be sure to check blower wheel and housing
for debris.
Check blower wheel, and fan motor assembly to ensure that
each is securely fixed. Rotate blower wheel by hand to be
sure that it is free and does not rub on housing.
POWER ON
Switch on unit power. Check blower wheel and fan motor
operation to ensure it is functional.
Be sure drain line is clear and is properly and securely
positioned. Pour water into drain to check operation.
Re-install front panel above filter section.
POWER ON
Check system performance parameters (pressures, current,
voltage, etc.) to ensure system is functioning satisfactorily.
Ensure that condensing unit cycles “off” and “on”, as
required. (It should take approximately three (3) minutes
during the cycle-off period to allow system pressures to
equalize.)
Ensure that the air-conditioned (room) space is “cooling”
to the satisfaction of the customer.
After completing unit installation, proper care must be given
to initial start-up and operation to avoid condensation
problems. Condensation forms on surfaces that are colder
than the dew point of the surrounding air. It is the
responsibility of the installing contractor to properly start
up system and avoid any condensation problems.
MAINTENANCE
Filters
The filters must be cleaned or replaced as often as neces-
sary to assure good air flow and filtering action.
Evaporator Coil
Do not allow dirt to accumulate on the evaporator coil or
other parts of the evaporator air circuit. Clean as often as
necessary to assure good system performance. Use a brush,
vacuum cleaner attachment or other suitable means.
Drain Pan
The drain pan should be inspected regularly to assure proper
drainage.
Lubrication
The bearings for the blower shaft and the blower motor are
permanently lubricated and should not require any addi-
tional lubrication.
Belts
Maintain belt tension to extend belt life. Replace when
signs of failure begin to appear.
