Inspection of Shipment

Upon receipt of equipment, carefully inspect it for possible shipping damage. If damage is found, it should be noted on the carrier’s freight bill. Take special care to examine the unit inside the carton if the carton is damaged. Any concealed damage discovered should be reported to the last carrier immediately, preferably in writing, and should include a request for inspection by the carrier’s agent.

If any damages are discovered and reported to the carrier

DO NOT INSTALL THE UNIT, as claim may be denied.

Check the unit rating plate to confirm specifications are as ordered.

Location of Unit

Outdoor units operate under a wide range of weather conditions; therefore, multiple factors must be considered when positioning the unit. The unit must be positioned to give adequate clearances for sufficient airflow and serviceing. Refer to Figure 1 for installation clearances.

Installation Clearances

* A service clearance of 30" must be maintained on one of the sides adjacent to the control box. Clearance to one of the other three sides must be 36". Clearance to one of the remaining two sides may be 12" and the final side may be 6".

A clearance of 24" must be maintained between units.

48" clearance required on top of unit. Maximum soffit overhang is

36".

Figure 1

• Place a sound-absorbing material, such as Isomode, under the unit if it will be installed in a location or position that will transmit sound or vibration to the living area or adjacent buildings.

• Install the unit high enough above the ground or roof to allow adequate drainage of defrost water and prevent ice buildup.

• In heavy snow areas, do no locate the unit where drifting snow will occur. The unit base should be elevated above the depth of average snows.

NOTE: Elevation of the unit may be accomplished by constructing a frame using suitable materials. If a support frame is constructed, it must not block drain holes in unit base.

• When installed in areas where low ambient temperatures exist, locate unit so winter prevailing winds do not blow directly into outdoor coil.

Page 2 of 26 Issue 0921 506272-01

• Locate unit away from overhanging roof lines which would allow water or ice to drop on, or in front of, coil or into unit.

Slab Mounting

When installing a unit at grade level, install on level slab high enough above grade so that water from higher ground will not collect around the u nit (see Figure 2).

Ground Level

2. Ground unit at unit disconnect switch or to an earth ground.

To facilitate conduit, a hole is in the bottom of the control box. Connect conduit to the control box using a proper conduit fitting. Units are approved for use only with copper conductors. 24V Class II circuit connections are made in the low voltage junction box. A complete unit wiring diagram is located inside the unit control box cover (see also page 23 of this instruction).

3. Install room thermostat on an inside wall that is not subject to drafts, direct sunshine, or other heat sources.

4. Install low voltage wiring from outdoor to indoor unit and from thermostat to indoor unit (see Figure 3 on page 4).

5. Do not bundle any excess 24V control wire inside control box. Run control wire through installed wire tie and tighten wire tie to provide low voltage strain relief and to maintain separation of filed-installed low and high voltage circuits.

WARNING

Line voltage is present at all components when unit is not in operation on units with single pole contractors.

Disconnect all remote electric power supplies before opening access panel. Unit may have multiple power supplies. Failure to disconnect all power supplies could result in personal injury or death.

Roof Mounting

Install unit at a minimum of 6” above surface of the roof to avoid ice buildup around the unit. Locate the unit above a loard bearing wall or area of the roof that can adequately support the unit. Consult local codes for rooftop applications.

Electrical Wiring

All field wiring must be done in accordance with the National

Electrical Code (NEC) recommendations, Canadian

Electrical Code (CEC) and CSA Standards, or local codes, where applicable.

WARNING

Unit must be grounded in accordance with national and local codes. Failure to ground unit properly can result in personal injury or death.

Refer to the furnace or blower coil installation instructions for additional wiring application diagrams and refer to unit rating plate for minimum circuit ampacity and maximum overcurrent protection size.

1. Install line voltage power supply to unit from a properly sized disconnect switch. Any excess high voltage field wiring should be trimmed or secured away from the low voltage field wiring.

Refrigerant Piping

WARNING

Refrigerant can be harmful if inhaled. Refrigerant must always be used and recovered responsibly. Incorrect or irresponsible use of refrigerant can result in personal injury or death.

If the 4SHP13 unit is being installed with a new indoor coil and line set, the refrigerant connections should be made as outlined in this section. If an existing line set and/or indoor coil will be used to complete the system, refer to this section as well as the section that follows entitled: Flushing Existing

Line Set and Indoor Coil.

If this unit is being matched with an approved line set or indoor coil which was previously charged with R22 refrigerant, the line set and coil must be flushed prior to installation. If the unit is being used with an existing indoor coil which was equipped with a liquid line which served as a metering device

(RFCI), the liquid line must be replaced prior to the installation of the 4SHP13 unit.

WARNING

Polyolester (POE) oils used with R-410A refrigerant absorb moisture very quickly. It is very important that the refrigerant system be kept closed as much as possible. DO NOT remove line set caps or service valve stub caps until ready to make connections.

506272-01

Installing Refrigerant Line

During the installation of an air conditioning system, it is important to properly isolate the refrigerant line to prevent unnecessary vibration. Line set contact with the structure

(wall, ceiling, or floor) may cause objectionable noise when vibration is translated into sound. As a result, more energy or vibration can be expected. Close attention to line set isolation must be observed. If refrigeration lines are routed through a wall, seal and isolate the opening so vibration is not transmitted to the building.

Following are some points to consider when placing and installing a high-efficiency outdoor unit:

Outside Unit Placement and Installation

Install unit away from windows

Placement

Be aware that some localities are adopting sound ordinances based on how noisy the unit is at the neighbor’s home, not at the original installation. Install the unit as far as possible from the property line. When possible, do not install the unit directly outside a bedroom window. Glass has a very high level of sound transmission. Figure 4 shows how to place the outdoor unit and line set to reduce line set vibration.

Two 90° elbows installed in lineset will reduce lineset vibration

Figure 4

Line Set Isolation

Illustrations on the following pages demonstrate procedures which ensure proper refrigerant line set isolation. Figure 5 shows how to install line sets on horizontal runs. Figure 6 shows how to make a transition from horizontal to vertical and Figure 7 on page 6 shows how to install line sets on vertical runs.

Brazing Connection Procedure

1.

Cut ends of refrigerant lines square (free from nicks or dents). Debur the ends. The pipe must remain round; do not pinch end of line.

2.

Before making line set connections, use dry nitrogen to purge the refrigerant piping. This will help to prevent oxidation and the introduction of moisture into the system.

3.

Use silver alloy brazing rods (5% or 6% silver alloy for copper-to-copper brazing or 45% silver alloy for copperto-brass or copper-to-steel brazing) which are rated for use with R-410A refrigerant.

4.

Remove the Schrader core assemblies before brazing to protect them from damage due to extreme heat.

Replace the cores when brazing is complete.

5.

Remove light maroon washers from service valves and shield light maroon stickers to protect them during brazing.

Wrap a wet cloth around the valve body and copper tube stub to protect it from heat damage.

6.

Braze the line set to the service valve. Quench the joints with water or a wet cloth to prevent heat damage to the valve core and opening port. The tube end must stay

bottomed in the fitting during final assembly to ensure proper seating, sealing, and rigidity.

7.

Install the fixed orifice ( or thermal expansion valve which is sold separately and which is approved for use with R-

410A refrigerant) in the liquid line at the indoor coil (see

Refrigerant Metering Device on page 8).

Flushing Existing Line Set and Indoor Coil

This procedure should not be performed on systems which contain contaminants, such as compressor burn out.

CAUTION

When flushing existing line set and/or indoor coil, be sure to empty all existing traps. Residual mineral oil can act as an insulator, preventing proper heat transfer. It can also clog the thermal expansion valve, reducing system performance and capacity. Failure to properly flush system as explained in these instructions will void warranty.

Required Equipment

The following equipment is needed to flush the existing line set and indoor coil (see Figure 8): Two clean R-22 recovery bottles, an oil-less recovery machine with a “pump down” feature, and two sets of gauges (one for use with R-22 and one for use with R-410A).

Flushing Connections

506272-01

Figure 8

Issue 0921

Note: The inverted R22 cylinder must contain at least the same amount of refrigerant as was recovered from the existing system.

Page 7 of 26

Flushing Procedure

IMPORTANT: The line set and/or indoor coil must be flushed with at least the same amount of refrigerant that previously charged the system. Check the charge in the flushing cylinder before flushing the unit.

1.

Remove existing R-22 refrigerant using the appropriate procedure.

If the existing outdoor unit is not equipped with shutoff valves, or if the unit is not operational AND the existing

R-22 refrigerant will be used to flush the system:

Disconnect all power to the existing outdoor unit. Connect the existing unit, a clean recovery cylinder, and the recovery machine according to the instructions provided with the recovery machine. Remove all R-22 refrigerant from the existing system. Refer to the gauges after shutdown to confirm that the entire system is completely void of refrigerant. Disconnect the liquid and suction lines from the existing outdoor unit.

If the existing outdoor unit is equipped with manual shutoff valves AND new R-22 refrigerant will be used to flush the system:

Start the existing R-22 refrigerant system in cooling mode and close the liquid line valve. Pump all the existing R-22 refrigerant back into the outdoor unit.

(It may be necessary to bypass the low pressure switches to ensure complete refrigerant evacuation.)

When the low side system pressures reach 0 psig, close the suction line valve. Disconnect all power to the existing outdoor unit. Refer to the gauges after shutdown to confirm that the valves are not allowing refrigerant to flow back into the low side of the system. Disconnect the liquid and suction lines from the existing outdoor unit.

2.

Remove the existing outdoor unit. Set the new R-410A unit and follow the brazing connection procedure outlined previously on this page to make line set connections.

Do not install the R-410A thermal expansion valve at this time.

3.

Make low voltage and line voltage connections to the new outdoor unit. Do not turn on power to the unit or open

the outdoor unit service valves at this time.

4.

Remove the existing R-22 refrigerant flow control orifice or thermal expansion valve before continuing with flushing procedures. R-22 flow control devices are not approved for use with R-410A refrigerant and may prevent proper flushing. Use a field-provided fitting to reconnect the lines.

5.

Remove the pressure tap valve cores from the 4SCU13 unit’s service valves. Connect an R-22 cylinder with clean refrigerant to the suction service valve. Connect the R-22 gauge set to the liquid line valve and connect a recovery machine with an empty recovery tank to the gauge set.

6.

Set the recovery machine for liquid recovery and start the recovery machine. Open the gauge set valves to allow the recovery machine to pull a vacuum on the existing system line set and indoor coil.

7.

Invert the cylinder of clean R-22 and open its valve to allow liquid refrigerant to flow into the system through the suction line valve. Allow the refrigerant to pass from the cylinder and through the line set and the indoor coil before it enters the recovery machine.

8.

After all of the liquid refrigerant has been recovered, switch the recovery machine to vapor recovery so that all of the R-22 vapor is recovered. Allow the recovery machine to pull a vacuum on the system.

NOTE: A single system flush should remove all of the mineral oil from the existing refrigerant lines and indoor coil. A second flushing may be done (using clean refrigerant) if insufficient amounts of mineral oil were removed during the first flush. After each system flush,

allow the recovery machine to pull a vacuum on the system at the end of the procedure.

9.

Close the valve on the inverted R-22 cylinder and the gauge set valves. Pump the remaining refrigerant out of the recovery machine and turn the machine off.

10. Use nitrogen to break the vacuum on the refrigerant lines and indoor coil before removing the recovery machine, gauges, and R-22 refrigerant drum. Re-install pressure tap valve cores into the 4SCU13 unit’s service valves.

11.

Install the factory-supplied fixed orifice (or thermal expansion valve approved for use with R-410A refrigerant) in the liquid line at the indoor coil.

Refrigerant Metering Device

4SCU13 units are designed for use with either fixed orifice or TXV systems. Refer to the appropriate following section for information on installing the chosen refrigerant metering device.

Fixed Orifice Systems

4SCU13 units are shipped with a fixed orifice refrigerant metering device. See specification sheets for the proper fixed orifice size for each unit. In nonstandard applications, the fixed orifice provided with the indoor unit may not be

Page 8 of 26 Issue 0921 506272-01

appropriately sized to be matched with the 4SCU13 unit. If necessary, replace the existing indoor unit fixed orifice with the orifice supplied with the 4SCU13 unit. Place the supplied fixed orifice sticker on the indoor cabinet after installation.

Figure 9 shows how to install the replacement fixed orifice.

Do not twist cap tubes when loosening the seal nut from the orifice housing. Use wrench to back up the distributor.

Metering Device Installation

Figure 9

To install an expansion valve (see Figure 9):

1.

Separate the distributor assembly and remove the piston orifice and used teflon seal. Insert nozzle end of the expansion valve along with a new teflon seal into the distributor and tighten to 20 – 30 ft. lbs. Use backup wrench on all wrench flats. Overtightening will crush the teflon

seal and may cause a leak.

2.

Attach liquid line portion of distributor assembly along with new teflon seal to the inlet of the expansion valve.

Tighten to 20 – 30 ft. lbs. Use backup wrench on all wrench flats. Overtightening will crush the teflon seal

and may cause a leak.

3.

Connect the external equalizer line to the equalizer port on the suction line and tighten to 8 ft. lbs.

4.

Strap the superheat sensing bulb to the suction header.

If installing an expansion valve on an indoor coil that previously used a fixed orifice, be sure to remove the existing fixed orifice. Failure to remove a fixed orifice when installing an expansion valve to the indoor coil will result in improper operation and damage to the system.

Manifold Guage Set

Manifold gauge sets used with systems charged with R410A refrigerant must be capable of handling the higher system operating pressures. The gauges should be rated for use with pressures 0 – 800 on the high side and a low side of

30" vacuum to 250 psi with dampened speed to 500 psi.

Gauge hoses must be rated for use at up to 800 psi of pressure with a 4000 psi burst rating.

Expansion Valve Systems

Expansion valves equipped with Chatleff-type fittings are available from the manufacturer. See Table 4 for proper

TXV for each unit.

Liquid and SuctionLine Service Valves

The liquid line and suction line service valves and service ports are used for leak testing, evacuating, charging, and checking charge.

506272-01 Issue 0921 Page 9 of 26

Each valve is equipped with a service port which has a factoryinstalled Schrader valve. A service port cap protects the

Schrader valve from contamination and serves as the primary leak seal.

Service Valve

Valve Closed

To Close Liquid or Suction Line Service Valve:

1.

Remove the stem cap with an adjustable wrench.

2.

Use a service wrench with a hex-head extension to turn the stem clockwise to seat the valve. Tighten firmly.

3.

Replace the stem cap. Tighten finger tight, then tighten an additional 1/6 turn.

Suction Line (Ball Type) Service Valve

Suction line (ball type) service valves function the same way as the other valves; the difference is in the construction (see

Figure 11).

The ball valve is equipped with a service port with a factoryinstalled Schrader valve. A service port cap protects the

Schrader valve from contamination and serves as the primary seal.

Ball Type Service Valve

Tighten finger tight, then an additional 1/6 turn.

Use adjustable wrench. To open, rotate stem counterclockwise 1/4 turn (90°). To close, rotate stem clockwise 1/4 turn (90°).

Figure 11

To Open Liquid or Suction Line Service Valve:

1.

Remove stem cap with an adjustable wrench.

2.

Use a service wrench with a hex-head extension to back the stem out counterclockwise as far as it will go. Use a

3/16" hex head extension for liquid line service valves and a 5/16" extension for suction line service valves.

3.

Replace the stem cap. Tighten finger tight, then tighten an additional 1/6 turn.

Leak Testing

After the line set has been connected to the indoor and outdoor units, the line set connections and indoor unit must be checked for leaks.

Using an Electronic Leak Detector

1.

Connect the high pressure hose of the manifold gauge set to the suction valve service port. (Normally the high pressure hose is connected to the liquid line port;

Page 10 of 26 Issue 0921 506272-01

however, connecting it to the suction ports helps to protect the manifold gauge set from damage caused by high pressure.)

2.

With both manifold valves closed, connect the cylinder of R-410A refrigerant. Open the valve on the R-410A cylinder (vapor only).

3.

Open the high pressure side of the manifold to allow

R410A into the line set and indoor unit. Weigh in a trace amount of R-410A. (A trace amount is a maximum of 2 oz. of refrigerant or 3 lbs. pressure.) Close the valve on the R-410A cylinder and the valve on the high pressure side of the manifold gauge set. Disconnect the R410A cylinder.

4.

Connect a cylinder of nitrogen with a pressure regulating valve to the center port of the manifold gauge set. When

using high pressure gas such as nitrogen for this purpose, be sure to use a regulator that can control the pressure down to 1 or 2 psig.

5.

Adjust nitrogen pressure to 150 psig. Open the valve on the high side of the manifold gauge set to pressurize the line set and the indoor coil.

6.

After a short period of time, open a refrigerant port to make sure that an adequate amount of refrigerant has been added for detection (refrigerant requirements will vary with lengths). Check all joints for leaks. Purge nitrogen and R410A mixture. Correct any leaks and recheck.

WARNING

Fire, Explosion, and Personal Safety Hazard.

Failure to follow this warning could result in damage, personal injury, or death.

Never use oxygen to pressurize or purge refrigeration lines. Oxygen, when exposed to a spark or open flame, can cause damage by fire and/or an explosion, that could result in personal injury or death.

Evacuation

Evacuating the system of noncondensables is critical for proper operation of the unit. Noncondensables are defined as any gas that will not condense under temperatures and pressures present during operation of an air conditioning system. Noncondensables and water vapor combine with refrigerant to produce substances that corrode copper piping and compressor parts.

WARNING

Do not use a compressor to evacuate a system. Avoid deep vacuum operation. Extremely low vacuums can cause internal arcing and compressor failure. Danger of equipment damage. Damage caused by deep vacuum operation will void warranty.

Use a thermocouple or thermistor electronic vacuum gauge that is calibrated in microns. Use an instrument that reads down to 50 microns.

1.

Connect the manifold gauge set to the service valve ports as follows:

• Low pressure gauge to suction line service valve

• High pressure gauge to liquid line service valve

2.

Connect micron gauge.

3.

Connect the vacuum pump (with vacuum gauge) to the center port of the manifold gauge set.

4.

Open both manifold valves and start vacuum pump.

5.

Evacuate the line set and indoor unit to a minimum of 500 microns or lower. During the early stages of evacuation, it is desirable to close the manifold gauge valve at least once to determine if there is a rapid rise in pressure. A rapid rise in pressure indicates a relatively large leak. If this occurs, the leak testing procedure must be repeated.

6.

When 500 microns or lower is maintained, close the manifold gauge valves, turn off the vacuum pump, and disconnect the manifold gauge center port hose from the vacuum pump. Attach the manifold gauge center port hose to a nitrogen cylinder with pressure regulator set to

150 psig and purge the hose. Open the manifold gauge valves to break the vacuum in the line set and indoor unit.

Close the manifold gauge valves.

7.

Shut off the nitrogen cylinder and remove the manifold gauge hose from the cylinder. Open the manifold gauge valves to release the nitrogen from the line set and indoor unit.

8.

Reconnect the manifold gauge to the vacuum pump, turn the pump on, and continue to evacuate the line set and indoor unit until 500 microns is maintained within a

20-minute period after shutting off the vacuum pump and closing the manifold gauge valves.

9.

When the requirements above have been met, disconnect the manifold hose from the vacuum pump.

Open the service valves to break the vacuum in the line set and indoor unit.

506272-01 Issue 0921 Page 11 of 26

START-UP

CAUTION

If unit is equipped with a crankcase heater, it should be energized 24 hours before unit start-up to prevent compressor damage as a result of slugging.

1.

Rotate fan to check for frozen bearings or binding.

2.

Inspect all factory and field-installed wiring for loose connections.

3.

After evacuation is complete, open liquid line and suction line service valves to release refrigerant charge

(contained in outdoor unit) into system.

4.

Replace the stem caps and secure finger tight, then tighten an additional 1/6 of a turn.

5.

Check voltage supply at the disconnect switch. The voltage must be within the range listed on the unit nameplate. If not, do not start equipment until the power company has been consulted and the voltage condition corrected.

6.

Set thermostat for cooling demand, turn on power to indoor blower and close the outdoor unit disconnect switch to start the unit.

7.

Recheck unit voltage with unit running. Power must be within range shown on unit nameplate.

Refrigerant Charging

This system is charged with R-410A refrigerant which operates at much higher pressures than R-22. The liquid line drier provided with the unit is approved for use with R-410A. Do not replace it with one designed for use with R-22. This unit is

NOT approved for use with coils which use capillary tubes as a refrigerant metering device.

R-410A refrigerant cylinders are rose colored.

Refrigerant should be added through the vapor valve in the liquid state.

Certain R-410A cylinders are identified as being equipped with a dip tube. These allow liquid refrigerant to be drawn from the bottom of the cylinder without inverting the cylinder. Do not turn this type of cylinder upside down to draw refrigerant.

Units are factory charged with the amount of R-410A refrigerant indicated on the unit rating plate. This charge is based on a matching indoor coil and outdoor coil with 15' line set. For varying lengths of line set, refer to Table 5 for refrigerant charge adjustment. A blank space is provided on the unit rating plate to list the actual field charge.

IMPORTANT

Mineral oils are not compatible with R-410A. If oil must be added, it must be a polyolester oil.

If the system is void of refrigerant, clean the system using the procedure described below.

1.

Use dry nitrogen to pressurize the system and check for leaks. epair leaks, if possible.

2.

Evacuate the system to remove as much of the moisture as possible.

3.

Use dry nitrogen to break the vacuum.

4.

Evacuate the system again.

5.

Weigh the appropriate amount of R-410A refrigerant

(listed on unit nameplate) into the system.

6.

Monitor the system to determine the amount of moisture remaining in the oil. Use a test kit to verify that the moisture content is within the kit’s dry color range. It may be necessary to replace the filter drier several times to achieve the required dryness level. If system

dryness is not verified, the compressor will fail in the future.

The outdoor unit should be charged during warm weather.

However, applications arise in which charging must occur in the colder months. The method of charging is determined by the unit’s refrigerant metering device and the outdoor

ambient temperature.

Measure the liquid line temperature and the outdoor ambient temperature as outlined below:

1.

Connect the manifold gauge set to the service valve ports as follows (see Figure 12):

506272-01

Cooling Cycle

to call for heat. This will create the necessary load for properly charging the system in the cooling cycle.

Use a digital thermometer to record the outdoor ambient temperature.

5.

When the heating demand has been satisfied, switch the thermostat to cooling mode with a set point of 68°F.

When pressures have stabilized, use a digital thermometer to record the liquid and suction line temperatures.

6.

The outdoor temperature will determine which charging method to use. Proceed with the appropriate charging method.

Charge Using Weigh-In Method (Fixed Orifice/TXV

Systems)

If the system is void of refrigerant, or if the outdoor ambient temperature is cool, first locate and repair any leaks then use the weigh-in method to charge the unit.

1.

Recover the refrigerant from the unit.

2.

Conduct a leak check, then evacuate as previously outlined.

3.

Weigh in the charge according to the total amount shown on the unit nameplate.

If weighing facilities are not available or if unit is being charged during warm weather, follow one of the other procedures outlined below.

Charge Using Subcooling Method (Fixed Orifice/TXV

Systems) – Outdoor Temperatures 65°F or Above

If charging a fixed orifice or TXV system when the outdoor ambient temperature is 65°F or above, the subcooling method can be used to charge the unit.

1.

With the manifold gauge hose on the liquid service port and the unit operating stably, use a digital thermometer to record the liquid line temperature.

2.

At the same time, record the liquid line pressure reading.

3.

Use the temperature/pressure chart (Table 6) to determine the saturation temperature for the liquid line pressure reading.

Table 8

Charge Using Approach Method (TXV Systems)

– Outdoor Temperatures 65°F or Above

The following procedure is intended as a general guide and is for use on expansion valve systems only. For best results, indoor temperature should 70°F to 80°F. Monitor system pressures while charging.

1.

Record outdoor ambient temperature using a digital thermometer.

2.

Attach high pressure gauge set and operate unit for several minutes to allow system pressures to stabilize.

3.

Compare stabilized pressures with those provided on pressure chart on control box cover. Minor variations in these pressures may be expected due to differences in installations. Significant differences could mean that

the system is not properly charged or that a problem exists with some component in the system.

Pressures higher than those listed indicate that the system is overcharged. Pressures lower than those listed indicate that the system is undercharged. Verify adjusted charge using the approach method.

Check Charge Using Normal Operating Pressures

Use Table 9 on page 16 to perform maintenance checks.

Table 9 is not a procedure for charging th system. Minor variations in these pressures may be due to differences in installations. Significant deviations could mean that he system is not properly charged or that a problem exists with some component in the system.

Page 16 of 26 Issue 0921 506272-01

OPERATION

Outdoor unit and indoor blower cycle on demand from the room thermostat. When the thermostat blower switch is moved to the ON position, the indoor blower operates continuously.

Filter Drier

The unit is equipped with a large campacity bi-flow filter which keeps the system clean and dry. If replacement is necessary, replace with one of similar design capacity. The replacement filter drier must be suitable for use with R-410A refrigerant.

Crankcase Heater

If unit is equipped with a crankcase heater, it should be energized 24 hours before unit start-up to prevent compressor damage as a result of slugging.

Emergency Heat Function (Room Thermostat)

An emergency heat function is designed into some room thermostats. This feature is applicable when isolation of outdoor unit is required or when auxiliary electric heat is stage by outdoor thermostats. When the room thermostat is placed in the emergency heat position, the outdoor unit control circuit is isolated from power and the field-supplied relays bypass the outdoor thermostats. An amber indicating light simultaneously comes on to remind the homeowner that the unit is operating in the emergency heat mode.

Emergency heat is usually used during an outdoor shutdown, but it should also be used following a power outage if power has been off for over an hour and the outdoor temperature is below 50° F. System should be left in the emergency heat mode at least 6 hours to allow the crankcase heater sufficient time to prevent compressor slugging.

Defrost System

The defrost system includes two components: the defrost thermostat and the defrost control.

Defrost Thermostat

The defrost thermostat is located on the liquid line between the check/expansion valve and the distributor. When the defrost thermostat senses 42° F or cooler, the thermostat contacts close and send a signal to the defrost control board to start the defrost timing. It also terminates defrost when the liquid line warms up to 70° F.

Defrost Control

The defrost control board includes the combined functions of time/temperature defrost control, defrost relay, diagnostic

LEDs and terminal strip for field wiring connections (see

Figure 3).

The control provides automatic switching from normal heating operation to defrost mode and back. During the compressor cycle (call for defrost), the control accumulates compressor run time at 30, 60, 90 minute field adjustable intervals. If the defrost thermostat is closed when the selected compressor run time inter ends, the defrost relay is energized and the defrost begins.

Defrost Control Timing Pins

Each timing pin selection provides a different accumulated compressor run time period during one thermostat run cycle.

This time period must occur before a defrost cycle is initiated.

The defrost interval can be adjusted to 30 (T1), 60 (T2), or

90 (T3) minutes. The defrost timing jumper is factory installed to provide a 60-minute defrost interval. If the timing selector jumper is not in place, the control defaults to a 90minute defrost interval. The maximum defrost period is 14 minutes and cannot be adjusted.

A test option is provided for troubleshooting. The test mode may be started any time the unit is in the heating mode and the defrost thermostat is closed or jumpered. If the jumper is in the TEST position at power-up, the control will ignore the test pins. When the jumper is placed across the TEST pins for 2 seconds, the control will enter the defrost mode.

If the jumper is removed before an additional 5-second period has elapsed (7 seconds total), the unit will remain in defrost passed. If the jumper is not removed until after the additional

5-second period has elapsed, the defrost will terminate and the test option will not functioin again until the jumper is removed and reapplied.

Compressor Delay

The defrost board has a field-selectable function to reduce occasional sounds that may occur while the unit si cycling in and out of the defrost mode. The compresor will be cycled off for 30 seconds going in and out of the defrost mode when the compressor delay jumper is removed.

NOTE: The 30-second “OFF” cycle is not functinal when jumpering the TEST pins.

Time Delay

The timed-off delay is 5 minutes long. The delay helps to protect the compressor from short cycling in case the power to the unit is interrupted or a pressure switch opens. The delay is bypassed by placing the timer select jumper across the TEST pins fro 0.5 seconds.

506272-01 Issue 0921 Page 17 of 26

Pressure Switch Circuit

The defrost control includes two pressure switch circuits. A high pressure switch is connected to the board’s HI-PS terminals (see Figure 13 on page 17). The low pressure, or loss-of-charge pressure, switch is connected to the LO-PS terminals.

During a single demand cycle, the defrost control will lock out the unit after the fifth time that the circuit is interrupted by any pressure swtich wired to the control board. In addition, the diagnostic LEDs will indicate a locked-out pressure switch after the fifthe occurrence of an open pressure switch (see

Table 11). The unit will remain locked out until power to the board is interrupted, then re-established, or until the jumper is applied to the TEST pins for 0.5 seconds.

NOTE: The defrost control board ignores input from the low pressure switch terminals as follows:

During the TEST mode

During the defrost cycle

During the 90-second start-up period

For the first 90 seconds each time the reversing valve switches heat/cool modes

If the TEST pins are jumpered and the 5-minute delay is being bypassed, the LO-PS terminal signal is not ignored during the 90-second start-up period.

Diganostic LEDs

The defrost board uses two LEDs for diagnostics. The LEDs flash a specific sequence according to the condition as shown in Table 11.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING

Before performing maintenance operations on system, turn the electric power to unit OFF at disconnect switch(es). Unit may have multiple power supplies.

Electrical shock could cause personal injury or death.

Before the start of each heating and cooling season, the following service checks should be performed by a qualified service technician.

Inspect and clean outdoor and indoor coils. The outdoor coil may be flushed with a water hose.

NOTE: It may be necessary to flush the outdoor coil morefrequently if it is exposed to substances which are corrosive or which block airflow across the coil (such as pet urine, cottonwood seeds, etc....).

Visually inspect the refrigerant lines and coils for leaks.

Check wiring for loose connections.

Check voltage at the indoor and outdoor units (with units operating).

Check amperage draw at the outdoor fan motor, compressor, and indoor blower motor. Values should be compared with those given on unit nameplate.

Check, clean (or replace) indoor unit filters.

Check the refrigerant charge and gauge the system pressures.

Check the condensate drain line for free and unobstructed flow. Clean drain line, if necessary.

Adjust blower speed for cooling. Measure the pressure drop over the coil to determine the correct blower CFM.

Belt drive blowers: Check drive belt for wwar and proper tensions.

If insufficient cooling is reported, the unit should be gauged and refrigerant charge checked (see Refrigerant Charging on page 12).

506272-01

HOMEOWNER INFORMATION

In order to ensure peak performance, your system must be properly maintained. Clogged filters and blocked airflow prevent your unit from operating at its most efficient level.

WARNING

Turn all electric power to unit OFF at disconnect switch(es) before performing any maintenance operations on system. Unit may have multiple power supplies. Electrical shock could cause personal injury or death.

Ask your dealer to show you where the indoor unit’s filter is located. It will be either at the indoor unit (installed internal or external to the cabinet) or behind a return air grille in the wall or ceiling. Check the filter monthly and clean or replace it as needed.

Disposable filters should be replaced with a filter of the same type and size. If you are unsure of the filter you need for your system, contact your dealer.

Many indoor units are equipped with reusable foam filters.

These filters can be cleaned with a mild soap and water solution. Rinse the filter thoroughly and let dry completely before returning to unit or grille.

The filter and all access panels must be in place any time the unit is in operation.

Some systems are equipped with an electronic air cleaner, designed to remove the majority of airborne particles from the air passing through the cleaner. If your system includes an electronic air cleaner, ask your dealer for maintenance instructions.

Inspect and clean indoor indoor coil. The indoor evaporator coil is equipped with a drain pan to collect condensate formaed as the system removes humidity from the inside air. Have your dealer show you the location of the drain line and how to check for obstructions. This also applies to an auxiliary drain, if one is installed.

Inspect and clean outdoor coil:

Make sure no obstructions restrict airflow to the outdoor unit. Leaves, trash, or shrubs crowding the unit can cause it to work harder and use more energy. Keep shrubbery trimmed away from the unit and periodically check for debris which collects around the unit.

The outdoor coil may require frequent cleaning, depending on environmental conditions. Clean the outdoor coil with an unpressurized water hose to remove surface contaminants and debris. It may be necessary to flush the outdoor coil more frequently if it is exposed to substances which are corrosive or which block airflow across the coil (such as pet irome, cottonwood seeds, etc...).

Heat Pump Operation

Heat pump untis have several characteristics you should be aware of:

Heat pumps satisfy heating demand by delivering large amounts of warm air into the living space. This is quite different from gas-fired, oil-fired, or electric furnaces which deliver lower volumes of considerably hotter air to heat the space.

Do not be alarmed if you notice frost on the outdoor coil in the winter months. Frost develops on the outdoor coil during the heating cycle when temperatures are below

45° F. An electronic control activates a defrost cycle lasting 5 to 15 minutes at preset intervals to clear the outdoor coil of the frost. A shift in sound type does occur during the defrost mode.

During the defrost cycle, you may notice steam rising from the unit. This is a normal occurrence. The thermostat may engage auxiliary heat during the defrost cycle to satisby a heating demand. The unit will return to normal operation at the conclusion of the defrost cycle.

In case of extended power outage....

If the outdoor temperature is belwo 50° F and power to the outdoor unit has been interrupted for 6 hours or longer, observe the following when restoring power to the heat pump system.

Set th e room thermostat selector to the “Emergency Heat” setting to obtain temporary heat for a minimum of 6 hours.

This will allow system refrigerant pressures a nd temperatures enough time to return to a stabilized condition.

In the Emergency Heat mode, all heating demand is satisfied by auxiliary heat; heat pump operation is locked out. After a 6-hour “warmup” period, the thermostat can then be switched to the “Heat” setting and normal heat operation may resume.

506272-01 Issue 0921 Page 19 of 26

Thermostat Operation

Though your thermostat may vary somewhat from the description below, its operation will be similar.

Temperature Setting Levers

Most heat hump thermostats have two temperature selector levers: one for heating and one for cooling. Set the levers or dials to the desired temperature setpoints for both heating and cooling. Avoid frequent temperature adjustment; turning the unit off and back on before pressures equalize puts stress on unit compressor.

Fan Switch

In AUTO or INT (intermittent) mode, the blower operates only when the thermostat calls for heating or cooling. This mode is generally preferred when humidity control is a priority.

The ON or CONT mode provides continuous indoor blower operation, regardless of whether the compressor or auxiliary heat are operating. This mode is required when constant air circulation or filtering is desired.

System Switch

Set the system switch for heating, cooling, or auto operation.

The auto mode allows the heat pump to automatically switch from heating mode to cooling mode to maintain predetermined comfort settings. Many heat pump thermostats are also equipped with an emergency heat mode which locks out heat pump operation and provides temporary heat supplied by the auxiliary heat.

Preservice Check

If your system fails to operate, check the following before calling for service:

Check to see that all electrical disconnect switches are

ON.

Make sure the thermostat temperature selector is properly set.

Make sure the thermostat system switch is properly set.

Replace any blown fuses, or reset circuit breakers.

Make sure unit access panels are in place.

Make sure air filter is clean.

Locate unit model number and have it handy before calling.

Indicating Light

Most heat pump thermostats have an amber light which indicates when the heat pump is operating in the emergency heat mode.

Temperature Indicator

The temperature indicator displays the actual room temperature.

Programmable Thermostats

Your system may be controlled by a programmable thermostat. These thermostats provide the added feature of programmable time-of-day setpoints for both heating and cooling. Refer to the user’s information manual provided with your particular thermostat for operation details.
