IM 368 / Page 7 of 20 (Rev. 11/03)
The standard cabinet/wall sleeve will accommodate a maximum
wall thickness described in Table 1. For thicker walls, cabinet/wall
sleeve extensions are available from your local representative.
When it is supplied by the representative, it is treated for
maximum corrosion resistance and matched to the exact size of
the standard wall sleeve. Field fabricated wall sleeve extensions
should also be treated and matched to the standard wall sleeve.
Be sure to provide air splitters to prevent recirculation of
condenser air. Air splitters should be placed in the wall sleeve as
shown in Figure A. It is important that spacing of the air splitters
match exactly those dimensions shown in Figure A.
Installation
Wall sleeve extensions are shipped in a separate carton and
tagged to match the proper unit. Be sure to check tagging of the
extension against that of the unit. Install the wall sleeve
extension as follows:
1. Position the extension with standard cabinet/wall sleeve so
proper alignment with drain and mounting holes is achieved.
2. Place a bead of caulk around the perimeter of the wall sleeve
and another bead around the mating side of the wall sleeve
extension so that the joint is watertight. Be sure to use a
resilient caulking such as silicone.
3. Assemble the wall sleeve extension to the wall sleeve. Clean
out weep holes to assure proper drainage.
4. Attach indoor drain kit (if used) according to the instructions
on page 9. Outdoor drain kits must be installed after wall sleeve
is in place.
5. Continue wall sleeve installation according to instruction #4
on page 6.
Louver Frame
Louver frames should be used for panel wall and thin wall
applications to assure positive anchoring to the wall. Recess the
cabinet/wall sleeve so that the louver is flush with the outside of
the building. Place louver frame around cabinet/wall sleeve as
shown in Figure B. Be careful not to drill holes in the bottom of
the wall sleeve. Secure angles at sides and top of walls.
Anchoring
Anchoring the cabinet/wall sleeve in the opening is accomplished
as shown in Figure C. Be sure not to drill holes in the bottom as it
will cause leaks. It is recommended that rubber isolation washers
be used with the fasteners to minimize sound transmission from
the equipment to the wall, at the point of contact.

Installation of Louvers
1. Remove louver and mounting hardware from the shipping
carton.
2. Remove temporary cardboard weather panel from cabinet/
wall sleeve.
3. Make a temporary handle by looping a piece of flexible wire
or heavy cord through the louver. This enables the installer to
keep a firm grasp on the louver when installing from inside
the room.
4. Push the louver through the opening at the rear of the wall
box, then pull the louver back to the wall sleeve flange so that
the louver studs pass through the holes in the flange.
5. Attach washers and nuts and secure louver in place.
6. If the heating/cooling chassis is not to be immediately installed,
replace the weather panel.
Installation of Chassis
Figure 16. Chassis Installation
Proper installation of the heating/cooling chassis is extremely
important to the proper operation of the unit. Whether the wall
sleeve has been separately shipped or shipped with the chassis,
proper installation is as follows:
1. Remove shipping carton and inspect for any shipping
damage. Report any found to the carrier.
2. Save shipping carton to cover installed conditioner until
construction is complete.
3. Check nameplate data on chassis to insure that the correct
jobsite distribution has been made with respect to heating/
cooling capacities. Generally, corner rooms require larger
capacities.
4. Set front panel aside and remove air filter.
5. Remove chassis from carton by pulling evenly on substantial
portion of unit. Caution: Do not pull on evaporator fan housing
or control box.
6. If wall sleeve has been previously installed, remove temporary
cardboard weather panel.
7. If louver has not been previously installed, connect to wall
sleeve as described earlier.
8. Place Tinnerman clips on wall sleeve. Clips and mounting
screws are enclosed in a bag attached to the inside chassis
side panel.
9. Rotate fans to be sure they are free of obstruction.
10.Check all fasteners to make certain they did not loosen
during shipment. Do not loosen nuts holding down compressor;
they are factory installed.
11.Do not lubricate motors before startup. Motors are factory
lubricated. Consult “Scheduled Maintenance” section on page
12 for lubrication instructions.
12.Slide chassis into wall sleeve until firmly seated against
weather seals. Caution: Do not push on coil surface, control
box cover or fan scroll. Make sure tubing does not catch when
inserting chassis.
13.Secure the chassis in the cabinet/wall sleeve with four (4)
screws packaged with the Tinnerman clips.
14.Plug electrical cord into receptacle. Excess cord for 208V and
230V units should be coiled neatly and stored in the condi-
tioner. Attach plug/cord cover to front face of subbase on 265V.
15.Set the manual damper operator in open or closed position
as desired. On units equipped with the optional electric fresh
air damper, set the “auto/off” switch to the desired position. In
“auto,” the damper is open whenever the indoor fan motor is
running. The “auto/off” switch is located on the bottom front
face of the control box.
16.Check the “Override/Normal” dial (heat pump only) located
on the front face of the control box. For normal heat pump
operation, position the dial to “Normal.” Only the electric heater
will operate when dial is in “Override” position.
17.Set fan cycle switch (located on the lower front face of the
control box) for constant or cycling indoor fan. With the switch
in the “cycle” position, the indoor fan will shut off when the
thermostat shuts off heating or cooling.
18.Set the temperature limiting feature to the desired range of
thermostat operation.
19.Replace the air filter and front panel.
20.For hydronic units, place the disconnect switch to the “On”
position.
a. Punch the two low voltage valve wires, with Molex
connections, through the opening provided in the subbase
and connect to valve.
b. Connect short power cord from the chassis to the receptacle
in the subbase heat section.
c. Replace filter and louvered subbase front panel.
d. Relocate thermostat bulb to bracket located in the subbase.
Refer to IM 419 which is provided with the hydronic subbase.

Equipment Startup
Initial startup of the Incremental
®
conditioners by experienced
personnel is usually the responsibility of the installing contractor.
This startup consists of inspecting and operating the equipment
for all functions at the time of initial installation, and making
necessary adjustments. It also includes demonstrating its proper
operation to the owner or his agent. Note that unless otherwise
specifically agreed to in writing, AAF–McQuay Incorporated
includes no field labor, startup service or the like in the price of
its equipment. After the equipment leaves the McQuay factory, it
may become damaged or maladjusted during transportation or
on the job. Sometimes wires are disconnected accidentally, or
fan motors move on their bases due to rough handling, causing
fans to strike. The correction of such conditions is part of the
startup.
Before Starting Equipment, Make Certain That:
1. Correct voltage has been supplied to the equipment.
2. The electrical plug from the control box has been inserted
into the receptacle.
During Startup (applies only to standard equipment):
1. Set manual ventilation damper to OPEN or CLOSED position
as required by owner. Set “auto-off” switch as required if unit
is equipped with electric fresh air damper.
2. Select HIGH on the fan speed rocker switch; push HEAT
button. Move thermostat to the extreme heating position
(counterclockwise). If the “CYCLE/CONSTANT” switch is
placed in the “CYCLE” position, Heat and indoor fan motor
should cycle on and off as the thermostat requires. Select
LOW on the fan speed rocker switch; fan should change to
low speed. If it is a heat pump unit, electric resistance neat
will be delivered at outdoor temperatures less than 30°F
(-1°C) to 35°F (1.6°C). Outdoor fan should be on whenever
compressor operates.
3. Select HIGH fan speed; push COOL button. Move thermostat
to the extreme cooling position (clockwise). Compressor and
indoor fan motor should cycle on and off as the thermostat
requires. Select LOW fan speed; fan should change to lower
speed. Outdoor fan should be on whenever compressor
operates.
4. Push FAN button. Indoor fan should operate at high or low
speed as selected. Neither heater nor compressor should
continue to operate.
5. Push STOP button. Fan should stop, and neither heater nor
compressor should continue to operate.
Note: Direction of conditioned air may be adjusted by
repositioning the discharge grille to change airflow pattern in a
room. The building superintendent or assistant manager should
be requested to make any changes.
Electrical Service
All wiring should should be done in accordance with all local and
National Electrical Code requirements. The conditioners are
supplied as follows:
Electrical Heating Unit
1. 208V and 230V models are supplied with an attachment cord
and plug which exit from beneath the conditioner on the
control side. The cord has a usable length of 72" (1829mm)
from where it exits the conditioner. The use of an extension
cord is not recommended. The attachment plug size should
be used to determine circuit ampacity and overcurrent
protection. Time delay fuses are recommended to avoid
nuisance tripping. The receptacle is generally mounted
beneath the conditioner, on or recessed in the wall so that it
is concealed by the conditioner overhang. The space under
the conditioner must be at least 3" (76mm) high.
2. An electrical subbase is available for 208V and 230V units
and contains a junction box for a field mounted receptacle.
All electrical connections are made within the subbase, thus
eliminating the need for a wall mounted receptacle. The
subbase is available in 3" (76mm) or 4" (102mm) height and
can be furnished with factory mounted fused disconnect option.
3. On all 265V models, an electrical subbase is required. The
chassis is supplied with a “short cord” which is just long enough
to plug into the subbase. A plug/cord cover is also furnished
with the subbase to make the interconnecting cord inaccessible,
as required by the National Electrical Code. The conditioner is
marked with the minimum circuit ampacity and maximum fuse size.
Hydronic Heating Unit
1. All hydronic units are supplied with a subbase. The subbase is
8" (203mm) high and houses both the hydronic heating coil
and the electrical connections.
2. A short cord is furnished to be plugged into the top of the sub-
base. A plug/cord cover is not furnished with these units.
3. A fused disconnect option is available and comes furnished
factory mounted.
Adjusting Temperature Limiting (Optional)
A temperature limiting device may be furnished as an option
to allow the owner to set the minimum and/or maximum
temperature selections. Adjust this device as follows:
1. Remove the two screws that secure the lower corners of the
front panel and remove the front panel.
2. Pull off the control knob and remove screws that hold down
polycarbonate membrane overlay.
3. Pull back overlay to gain access to the temperature limiting
device adjusting screw.
4. Loosen hold-down screw with Phillips screwdriver.
5. Adjust cams to attain desired rotation limit.
6. Tighten hold-down screw.
7. Replace overlay and secure with screws removed in step #2.
8. Once unit is in operation, rotate knob to maximum heat and/
or maximum cool to check temperature limits. Repeat
procedure listed above until desired temperature limitations
are achieved.
9. Replace front panel and tamper resistant front panel screws
removed in step #1.
IM 368 / Page 12 of 20 (Rev 11/03)
Units that are furnished with remote mounted thermostats should
be wired as shown in Figure 17. Other considerations for this
arrangement are as follows:
1. When wiring the low voltage plug and receptacle disconnect,
provide enough wire to move harness out of the way for
chassis removal.
2. If subbase is used, a small hole must be drilled and grommeted
in the subbase front to allow passage of the low voltage wires.
3. If slave units are to be employed, connect as shown in Figure
17. With this arrangement, the loop between terminals N2
and N4 of the slave unit must be severed. The standard
master transformer handles 10 VA power draw and each slave
unit draws 5 VA. If more than one slave unit is used, the
master transformer must be replaced with a larger one. The
number of slave units that can be connected is limited to the
maximum amperage rating of the thermostat contacts.
4. When using a programmable wall thermostat, splice into the
jumper going from N2 to N4 of the master unit and connect it
to the common terminal of the thermostat. Refer to the
instructions furnished with the chosen thermostat to locate
the common terminal. Note: It may be necessary to place a
larger VA transformer in the unit when using certain
programmable thermostats. Check the VA draw of the
chosen thermostat, plus a VA draw of the slave unit to be
sure it does not exceed 10 VA power draw. Slave units are
connected as described in #3 above.
Incremental conditioners are built to last. With proper care, the
unit should provide uninterrupted service for many years.
Scheduled maintenance of this equipment, as described below,
is the key to the equipment’s longevity.
A. Air filters must be cleaned at regular intervals. Twice annually
may be adequate in some areas while twice monthly may be
required in others. Areas with high dirt and lint content or heavy
usage of units require more frequent filter maintenance than
those areas of relatively clean operating or low usage
conditions. Unit malfunction may occur if air filters are not kept
clean. Rinse filters with hot water and a mild detergent. Let
dry and oil lightly to enhance dust collecting ability.
B. McQuay recommends that every year the chassis be removed
for a thorough checkup. This should be completed as follows:
1. Unplug unit from power source.
2. Remove front panel.
3. Remove chassis from cabinet and move it to the
maintenance department. Replace with spare chassis or
weather plate.
4. Check all seals and insulation and repair as required.
5. Check all wiring and controls for hazardous conditions.
6. Thoroughly clean discharge grilles.
7. Cover motors and control module with watertight
material and wash evaporator coil, condenser coil and base
pan using hot water and a mild soap.
8. Clean condensate drain and clear weep holes.
9. Dry equipment thoroughly, especially electric parts and
insulation.
10.Clean any rust spots with steel wool and paint with rust
inhibiting paint.
11.Clean insulation or replace if necessary.
12.Check insulation on suction tube and replace if necessary.
13.Check all fasteners and tighten as required.
14.Clean and oil damper door and linkage.
15.Test run chassis before reinstalling or returning to spare
parts stock.
Installing Remote Mounted Thermostat Scheduled Maintenance
Residential and institutional cleaning compounds can
cause permanent damage to the packaged terminal unit.
To avoid damage to unit controls and heat transfer
surfaces, do not spray cleaning compounds onto the
discharge grille, return air opening, or unit controls.
Normal cleaning can be accomplished by wiping the unit
surface with a damp cloth. When using cleaning
compounds on carpets, floors or walls, turn the unit off to
avoid drawing potentially damaging vapors into the
package terminal unit.

Recommended Spare Parts
An inherent advantage of the incremental system is that failure
of any part affects only one incremental conditioner and does not
interrupt the operation of the rest of the system. A further
advantage is that a failed part can be quickly and easily replaced,
thus minimizing the inoperative time of the equipment. This is so,
however, only if a replacement part is quickly available. In order
to replace a failed part quickly and keep all incremental
conditioners in good operating condition, McQuay International
recommends that at the time incremental conditioners are
purchased, owners arrange for a small stock of replacement parts.
Where an owner carries such a stock, immediate replacement
of a defective part is possible. The defective part can then be
returned to McQuay International or one of its authorized service
stations. So long as it is still in warranty, it is repaired or replaced
and returned to the owner without cost for shop labor and
material. Thus, the stock of replacement parts is constantly
replenished. To the right is listed the kinds of parts which McQuay
International recommends to be carried in stock, together with
the quantity of parts recommended per 100 incremental
conditioners installed.

Refrigeration Cycle
Every motor-driven refrigeration system operates on the Carnot
cycle. A practical understanding of what goes on at the various
steps in this cycle can be a big help to the troubleshooting
mechanic. Figure 18 illustrates the refrigeration cycle. The
diagram shows what occurs in each component of a hermetically
sealed system, as used in all AAF–McQuay Incorporated
equipment. The temperatures shown are typical of what they might
be when the air entering the condenser (outdoor temperature) is
95°F (35°C) and the temperature of the conditioned space is 75°F
(24°C) to 80°F (27°C).

Notes:
† This guide was prepared with standard equipment in mind. If equipment is special, it may not be entirely applicable.
* If equipment is still in warranty.
** Note: Before trying to correct the noise, determine its cause: conditioned air blower, compressor or condenser blower. Operate the conditioned air blowers only. If
this doesn’t cause the noise, operate on cooling. Then disconnect one compressor lead. If the noise stops, the compressor is the source. If not, it is caused by the
condenser blower.
