Safety This information is intended for use by individuals possessing adequate backgrounds of electrical and mechanical experience. Any attempt to repair a central air conditioning product may result in personal injury and/or property damage. The manufacture or seller cannot be responsible for the interpretation of this information, nor can it assume any liability in connec- tion with its use. These units use R-410A refrigerant which operates at 50 to 70% higher pressures than R-22. Use only R-410A approved service equipment. Refrigerant cylinders are painted a "Rose" color to indicate the type of refrigerant and may contain a "dip" tube to allow for charging of liquid refrigerant into the sys- tem. All R-410A systems use a POE oil that readily absorbs moisture from the atmosphere. To limit this "hygroscopic" action, the system should remain sealed whenever possible. If a system has been open to the atmosphere for more than 4 hours, the compressor oil must be replaced. Never break a vacuum with air and always change the driers when opening the system for component replacement. For specific handling concerns with R-410A and POE oil reference Retrofit Bulletins SS-APG006-EN and APP-APG011-EN or APP-APG012-EN. UNIT CONTAINS R-410A REFRIGERANT! R-410A operating pressures exceed the limit of R-22. Proper service equipment is required. Failure to use proper service tools may result in equipment damage or personal injury. SERVICE USE ONLY R-410A REFRIGERANT AND AP- PROVED POE COMPRESSOR OIL. Extreme caution should be exercised when opening the Liquid Line Service Valve. Turn counterclockwise until the valve stem just touches the rolled edge. No torque is required. Failure to follow this warning will result in abrupt release of system charge and may result in personal injury and /or property damage. LIVE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS! During installation, testing, servicing, and trouble- shooting of this product, it may be necessary to work with live electrical components. Failure to follow all electrical safety precautions when exposed to live electrical components could result in death or serious injury.

Three (3) feet clearance must be provided in front of the control box (access panels) and any other side requiring service. It is not recommended to install in a location where noise may distract the building occu- pants. Some examples of these types of loca- tions are sleeping quarters and by windows of a living area. Please discuss location with the building owner prior to installation. Avoid locations such as near windows where condensation and freezing defrost vapor can annoy a customer. Position the outdoor unit a minimum of 12" from any wall or surrounding shrubbery to ensure adequate airflow. Outdoor unit location must be far enough away from any structure to prevent excess roof runoff water or icicles from falling directly on the unit. 2.4 Cold Climate Considerations NOTE: It is recommended that these precau- tions be taken for units being installed in areas where snow accumulation and prolonged below freezing temperatures occur. Units should be elevated 3-12 inches above the pad or rooftop, depending on local weather. This additional height will allow drainage of snow and ice melted during defrost cycle prior to its refreezing. Ensure that drain holes in unit base pan are not obstructed preventing draining of defrost water. • If possible, avoid locations that are likely to accumulate snow drifts. If not possible, a snow drift barrier should be installed around the unit to prevent a build-up of snow on the sides of the unit.

Always verify proper system charge via subcooling (TXV/EEV) or superheat (fixed orifice) per the unit nameplate. 5.3 Required Refrigerant Line Length Determine required line length and lift. You will need this later in STEP 2 of Section 14. Total Line Length = Ft. Total Vertical Change (lift) = Ft. 5.4 Refrigerant Line Insulation Important: The Vapor Line must always be insulated. DO NOT allow the Liquid Line and Vapor Line to come in direct (metal to metal) contact. 88-A4AC3001-1 B-EN 5.5 Reuse Existing Refrigerant Lines If using existing refrigerant lines make certain that all joints are brazed, not soldered. For retrofit applications, where the existing indoor evaporator coil and/or refrigerant lines will be used, the following precautions should be taken: • Ensure that the indoor evaporator coil and refrigerant lines are the correct size. • Ensure that the refrigerant lines are free of leaks, acid, and oil. Section 6. Refrigerant Line Routing 6.1 Precautions Important: Take precautions to prevent noise Comply with National, State, and Local Codes when within the building structure due to vibration isolating line sets from joists, rafters, walls, or other transmission from the refrigerant lines. structural elements. For Example: • When the refrigerant lines have to be fastened to floor joists or other framing in a structure, use isolation type hangers. • Isolation hangers should also be used when refrigerant lines are run in stud spaces or enclosed ceilings. • Where the refrigerant lines run through a wall or sill, they should be insulated and isolated. • Isolate the lines from all ductwork. • Minimize the number of 902 turns. 8 Feet Maximum Joist/Rafter 0 0 / 0 0 Isolator 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 O=01 0 Side View 8 Feet Maximum Line Set Secure Vapor line from joists using isolators every 8 ft.

Note: The nameplate charge value represents the amount of refrigerant shipped in the outdoor unit and is compatible with 10 feet of AHRI rated refrigerant lines and the smallest AHRI rated coil. Using the method below, find the charge associ- ated with the additional length of tubing above 10 ft. and record it below. Calculating Charge Using the Weigh —In Method 1) Measure in feet the distance between the outdoor unit and the indoor unit. (Include the entire length of the line from the service valve to the IDU.) Subtract 10 ft from this entire length and record on line 1. 2) Enter the charge multiplier (0.6 oz/ft). Each linear foot of interconnecting tubing requires the addition of 0.6 oz of refrigerant. 3) Multiply the total length of refrigerant tubing (Line 1) times the value on Step 2. Record the result on Line 3 of the Worksheet. 4) This is the amount of refrigerant to weigh-in prior to opening the service valves. °F Weigh -In Method can be used for the initial installation, or anytime a system charge is being replaced. Weigh -In Method can also be used when power is not available to the equipment site or operating conditions (indoor/outdoor temperatures) are not in range to verify with the subcooling charging method. 1.

At startup, or whenever charge is removed or added, the system must be operated for a mini- mum of 20 minutes to stabilize before accurate measurements can be made. k 0 MIN. 0 STEP 3 - Check the liquid line temperature and Measured Liquid Line Temp = ° F liquid gage pressure to obtain a minimum of 10° subcooling in heating mode. Liquid Gage Pressure = PSIG STEP 4 - Add charge if a minimum of 102 sub - cooling is not obtained with the namplate charge plus additional charge previously added. STEP 5 - Return to site for adjustment. Important: Return in the spring or summer to accurately charge the system in the cooling mode with outdoor ambient above 552 F. Section 15. Checkout Procedures and Troubleshooting 15.1 Operational And Checkout Procedures Final phases of this installation are the unit Operational and Checkout Procedures. To obtain proper performance, all units must be operated and charge adjustments made. Important: Perform a final unit inspection to be sure that factory tubing has not shifted during shipment. Adjust tubing if nec- essary so tubes do not rub against each other when the unit runs. Also be sure that wiring connections are tight and properly secured.
