Installation

General

1. To prevent damage, this equipment should not be oper-

ated for supplementary heating and cooling during the

construction period.

2. Inspect the carton for any specific tagging numbers as

requested by the installing contractor. At this time the

voltage, phase and capacity should be checked against

the plans.

3. Check the unit size against the plans to be sure that the

unit will be installed in the correct location.

4. Before installation, check the available closet dimensions

versus the dimensions of the unit.

5. Pay attention to the location and routing of water piping,

and electrical wiring. The locations of these items are

clearly marked on submittal drawings.

6. The installing contractor will find it beneficial to confer

with piping, sheet metal, ceiling and electrical foremen

together before installing any conditioners.

7. Remove shipping block from under the fan wheel.

8. We recommend that the contractor cover the condition-

ers with plastic film to protect the machines during finish-

ing of the building. This is important if spraying fireproof-

ing material on bar joists, sandblasting, spray painting

and plastering operations have not been completed. If

plastic film is not available, the shipping carton may be

modified to cover the units during construction.

9. On extra-quiet construction units with spring mounted

compressors, remove the shipping block under the com-

pressor.

Transportation and Storage

Upon receipt of the equipment, check carton for visible

damage. Make a notation on the shipper’s delivery ticket

before signing. If there is any evidence of rough handling, the

cartons should be opened at once to check for concealed

damage. If any damage is found, notify the carrier within 48

hours to establish your claim and request their inspection

and a report. The Warranty Claims Department should then

be contacted.

Do not stand or transport the machines on end. For

storing, each carton is marked with “up” arrows.

In the event that elevator transfer makes upended posi-

tioning unavoidable, absolutely insure that the machine is in

the normal upright position for at least 24 hours before

operating.

Temporary storage at the jobsite must be indoors, com-

pletely shielded from rain, snow, etc. High or low tempera-

tures naturally associated with weather patterns will not

harm the conditioners. Excessively high temperatures of

140

F (60

C) may deteriorate certain plastic materials and

cause permanent damage. In addition, the solid-state circuit

boards may experience operational problems.

Note: Installation and maintenance are to be performed only by qualified personnel who are familiar with local codes and

regulations, and are experienced with this type of equipment. Caution: Sharp edges are a potential injury hazard. Avoid contact

with them.

Unit location

1. Locate the unit in an area that allows for easy removal of

the filter and access panels, and has enough space for

service personnel to perform maintenance or repair. Pro-

vide sufficient room to make water, electrical and duct

connections.

2. The contractor should make sure that access has been

provided including clearance for duct collars and fittings

at water and electrical connections.

3. Allow adequate room around the unit for a condensate

trap.

4. The unit can be installed “free standing” in an equipment

room; however, closet installations are more common for

small vertical type units. Generally, the unit is located in

the corner of a closet with the nonducted return air facing

to the door and the major access panels facing the

door as in Figure 1A. Alternatively, the unit can have a

ducted return air with the opening facing the door and the

major access panels facing 90

to the door as in Figure 1B.

5. It is recommended that the unit be located on top of a

vibration absorbing material such as rubber or carpet to

reduce any vibration. See Figure 5.

6. If optional field installed controls are required (boilerless

system), space must be provided for the enclosure to

mount around the corner from the electrical entrances. Do

not locate the side of the unit too close to a wall. See

Figures 1A and 1B.

Page 4 of 24 / IM 407

Ductwork and attenuation

Discharge ductwork is normally used with these condition-

ers. Return air ductwork may also be required, but will require

field installation of a return air duct collar/2" (51mm) filter rack

kit.

All ductwork should conform to industry standards of

good practice as described in ASHRAE Systems Guide.

The discharge duct system will normally consist of a

flexible connector at the unit, a noninsulated transition piece

to the full duct size, a short run of duct, an elbow without

vanes, and a trunk duct teeing into a branch circuit with

discharge diffusers as shown in Figure 2. The transition piece

must not have an angle greater than 30

or severe loss of air

performance can result. Do not connect the full duct size to

the unit without using a transition piece down to the size of

the discharge collar on the unit. With metal duct material, the

sides only of the elbow and entire branch duct should be

internally lined with acoustic insulation for sound attenua-

tion. Glass fiber duct board material is more absorbing and

may permit omission of the flexible connector.

The ductwork should be laid out so that there is no line of

sight between the conditioner discharge and the distribution

diffusers.

Return air ducts can be brought in through a wall grille and

then to the unit. The return duct system will normally consist

of a flexible connector at the unit and a trunk duct to the

return air grille. With metal duct material, the return air duct

should be internally lined with acoustic insulation for sound

attenuation. Glass fiber duct board material is more absorb-

ing and may permit omission of the flexible connector.

Return air ductwork to the unit requires the optional return

air duct collar/2" (51mm) filter rack kit. See Figure 3. The kit

can be installed for face side or bottom filter removal. The

flexible connector can then be attached to the 1" (25mm)

duct collar.

Do not use sheet metal screws directly into the unit

cabinet for connection of supply or return air ductwork,

especially return air ductwork which can puncture the drain

pan or the air coil.

Figure 2.

Ventilation air

Outside air may be required for ventilation. The temperature

of the ventilation air must be controlled so that mixture of

outside air and return air entering the conditioner does not

exceed application limits. It is also general practice to close

off the ventilation air system during unoccupied periods

(night setback).

The ventilation air system is generally a separate building

subsystem with distribution ductwork. Simple introduction

of the outside air into each return air plenum chamber

reasonably close to the conditioner air inlet is not only

adequate, but recommended. Do not duct outside air directly

to the conditioner inlet. Provide sufficient distance for thor-

ough mixing of outside and return air. See “Operating limits”

on page 7.

Electrical Data

General

1. Be sure the available power is the same voltage and phase

as that shown on the unit serial plate. Line and low voltage

wiring must be done in accordance with local codes or the

National Electrical Code, whichever is applicable.

2. Apply correct line voltage to the unit. A

⁄8" (22mm) or 1

⁄8"

(29mm) hole is supplied on the side of the unit. A discon-

nect switch near the unit is required by code. Power to the

unit must be sized correctly and have time delay (dual

element) fuses or an HACR circuit breaker for branch

circuit overcurrent protection. See the nameplate for

correct ratings.

230 Volt operation and 50 cycle units

All 208-230 volt single and three-phase units are factory

wired for 208 volt operation. For 230 volt operation, the line

voltage tap on the 24 volt transformer must be changed.

Disconnect and cap the red lead wire and interchange it with

the orange lead wire on the primary of the 24 volt trans-

former. Three-phase 50 cycle units require a neutral wire for

230/50/1 power.

Fan speed change

All units have two-speed fan motors and are shipped for

high speed operation. On unit sizes 007, 009 and 012, the

change from high speed to low speed is done by removing

the black wire from the fan relay and connecting the red wire

to the fan relay (Figure 4A). On units sizes 015 through 060,

each fan motor is supplied with a 5-pin terminal block

mounted on the fan motor. To change from high speed to

low speed, move the wire from the black #3 location to the

red #4 location on unit sizes 015 through 042 or to the red

#5 location on units sizes 048 and 060. On 575 volt units,

add a jumper between black #3 and blue #4 for low speed

operation. See Figure 4B.

Figure 4A. Figure 4B.

1. All units are recommended to be connected to supply

and return piping in a two-pipe reverse return configura-

tion. A reverse return system is inherently self-balancing

and requires only trim balancing where multiple quanti-

ties of units with different flow and pressure drop char-

acteristics are connected to the same loop. A simple

way to check for proper water balance is to take a

differential temperature reading across the water con-

nections. To insure proper water flow, the differential

should be 10

F (5

C) to 14

F (8

C).

A direct return system may also be made to work ac-

ceptably, but proper water flow balancing is more diffi-

cult to achieve and maintain.

2. The piping can be steel, copper or PVC.

3. Supply and return runouts are usually connected to the

unit by short lengths of high pressure flexible hose which

are sound attenuators for both unit operating noise and

hydraulic pumping noise. One end of the hose should

have a swivel fitting to facilitate removal for service. Hard

piping can also be brought directly to the unit although

it is not recommended since no vibration or noise at-

tenuation can be accomplished. The hard piping must

have unions to facilitate unit removal. See Figure 5 for

typical piping setup.

4. Supply and return shutoff valves are required at each

conditioner. The return valve is used for balancing and

should have a “memory stop” so that it can always be

closed off but can only be reopened to the proper

Piping

position for the flow required.

5. No unit should be connected to the supply and return

piping until the water system has been cleaned and

flushed completely. After the cleaning and flushing has

taken place, the initial connection should have all valves

wide open in preparation for water system flushing.

6. Condensate piping can be steel, copper or PVC. Each

unit is supplied with a

⁄8" (22mm) ODM copper stub.

7. The condensate disposal piping must have a trap and

the piping must be pitched away from the unit not less

than

⁄4" inch per foot (21mm per meter). Generally, the

condensate trap is made of copper and soldered on the

unit. See Figure 6. A piece of vinyl hose from the trap to

the drain line is used for simple removal. A complete

copper or PVC condensate system can also be used.

Union fittings in the copper lines should be applied to

facilitate removal. Factory supplied condensate hose

assemblies have a

⁄8" (22mm) sweat to FPT fitting to

facilitate connection of a flexible vinyl, rubber or steel

braided hose.

8. No point in the drain system may be above the drain

connection of any unit.

9. Automatic flow controlled devices must not be installed

prior to system cleaning and flushing.

10. A high point of the piping system must be vented.

11. Check local code for the need for dielectric fittings.

1. Open all valves to full open position and turn on power

to the conditioners.

2. Set thermostat for “Fan Only” operation by selecting

“Off” at the system switch and “On” at the fan switch. If

“Auto” fan operation were selected, the fan would cycle

with the compressor. Check for proper air delivery.

3. All units have two-speed motors. Reconnect for low

speed operation if necessary.

4. Set thermostat to “Cool.” If the thermostat is an auto-

matic changeover type, simply set the cooling tempera-

ture to the coolest position. On manual changeover

types additionally select “Cool” at the system switch.

Start-up

1. Prior to first operation of any conditioner, the water cir-

culating system must be cleaned and flushed of all con-

struction dirt and debris.

If the conditioners are equipped with water shutoff

valves, either electric or pressure operated, the supply

and return runouts must be connected together at each

conditioner location. This will prevent the introduction of

dirt into the unit. Additionally, pressure operated valves

only open when the compressor is operating.

Figure 7.

2. The system should be filled at the city water makeup con-

nection with all air vents open. After filling, vents should be

closed.

The contractor should start main circulator with pres-

sure reducing valve makeup open. Vents should be

checked in sequence to bleed off any trapped air to

assure circulation through all components of the system.

Power to the heat rejector unit should be off, and the

supplementary heat control set at 80

F (27

C).

While circulating water, the contractor should check

and repair any leaks in the piping. Drains at the lowest

point(s) in the system should be opened for initial flush

and blow-down, making sure city water fill valves are set

to make up water at the same rate. Check the pressure

gauge at pump suction and manually adjust the makeup

to hold the same positive steady pressure both before and

after opening the drain valves. Flush should continue for

at least two hours, or longer if required, to see clear, clean

drain water.

3. Supplemental heater and circulator pump should be shut

off. All drains and vents should be opened to completely

drain down the system. Short circuited supply and return

runouts should now be connected to the conditioner

supply and return connections. Teflon tape is recom-

mended over pipe dope for pipe thread connections. Use

no sealers at the swivel flare connections of hoses.

4. Trisodium phosphate was formerly recommended as a

cleaning agent during flushing. However, many states

and localities ban the introduction of phosphates into

their sewage systems. The current recommendation is to

simply flush longer with warm 80

F (27

C) water.

5. Refill the system with clean water. Test the litmus paper

for acidity, and treat as required to leave the water slightly

alkaline (pH 7.5 to 8.5). The specified percentage of

antifreeze may also be added at this time. Use commer-

cial grade antifreeze designed for HVAC systems only. Do

not use automotive grade antifreeze.

6. Set the system control and alarm panel heat add setpoint

to 70

F (21

C) and the heat rejection setpoint to 85

(29

C). Supply power to all motors and start the circulating

pumps. After full flow has been established through all

components including the heat rejector (regardless of

season) and air vented and loop temperatures stabilized,

each of the conditioners will be ready for check, test and

start-up and for air and water balancing.

Cleaning and Flushing System

Note: Do not overtorque fittings. The maximum torque without damage to fittings is 30 foot pounds. If a torque wrench is not available, use as a rule of thumb,

finger-tight plus one quarter turn. Use two wrenches to tighten the union, one to hold the line and one for simultaneous tightening of the nut.

exceed 35

F (19

C). If the air temperature exceeds 35

(19

C), the airflow rate is probably inadequate.

If the water temperature difference is less than 6

(3.3

C), the water flow rate is excessive. If the water

temperature difference exceeds 12

F (6.7

C), then the

water flow rate is inadequate.

6. Check the elevation and cleanliness of the condensate

line. If the air is too dry for sufficient dehumidification,

slowly pour enough water into the condensate pan to

ensure proper drainage.

7. If the conditioner does not operate, the following points

should be checked:

a. Is proper voltage being supplied to the machine?

b. Is the proper type of thermostat being used?

c. Is the wiring to the thermostat correct?

8. If the conditioner operates but stops after a brief period,

check for:

a. Is there proper airflow? Check for dirty filter, incorrect

fan rotation (3-phase fan motors only), or incorrect

ductwork.

b. Is there proper water flow rate within temperature

limits? Check water balancing; backflush unit if dirt

clogged.

9. Check the unit for vibrating refrigerant piping, fan wheels,

etc.

10. Do not lubricate the fan motor during the first year of

operation as it is prelubricated at the factory.

Again, many conditioners have time delays which

protect the compressor against short cycling. After a

few minutes of operation, check the discharge grilles for

cool air delivery. Measure the temperature difference

between entering and leaving water. It should be ap-

proximately 1

⁄2 times greater than the heating mode

temperature difference. For example, if the cooling tem-

perature difference is 15

F (8

C), the heating tempera-

ture difference should have been 12

F (5

C).

Without automatic flow control valves, a cooling

temperature difference of 10

F to 14

F (5

C to 8

C) is

about right. Adjust the combination shutoff/balancing

valve in the return line to a water flow rate which will

result in the 10

F to 14

F (5

C to 8

C) difference.

5. Set thermostat to “Heat.” If thermostat is the automatic

changeover type, set system switch to the “Auto” posi-

tion and depress the heat setting to the warmest selec-

tion. Some conditioners have built-in time delays which

prevent the compressor from immediately starting. With

most control schemes, the fan will start immediately.

After a few minutes of compressor operation, check for

warm air delivery at discharge grille. If this is a “cold

building” start-up, leave unit running until return air to

the unit is at least 65

F (18

C).

Measure the temperature difference between enter-

ing and leaving air and entering and leaving water. With

entering water of 60

F to 80

F (16

C to 27

C), leaving

water should be 6

F to 12

F (3.3

C to 6.7

C) cooler, and

the air temperature rise through the machine should not

General

Each unit has a printed circuit board control system. The low

voltage output from the low voltage terminal strip on the

control board is always 24 volts DC (direct current). Termi-

nals R and C on the low voltage terminal strip supply 24 volts

AC power. The unit has been designed for operation with a

24 volt mercury bulb type wall thermostat or a microelec-

tronic wall thermostat selected by the manufacturer. Do not

operate the unit with any other type of wall thermostat.

Two types of units are available: electromechanical con-

trol units or Mark IV/AC control units. Both have 24 volt DC

circuits on the output of the low voltage terminal strip. Each

requires its own unique automatic changeover thermostat.

Mark IV/AC control units

The Mark IV/AC circuit board is an optional control system

with built-in features such as random start, compressor time

delay, night setback, load shed, shutdown, condensate

overflow protection, defrost cycle, brownout, and LED/fault

outputs. Figure 28 shows the LED and fault output se-

quences.

The 24 volt low voltage terminal strip is set up so R-G

energizes the fan, R-Y1 energizes the compressor for cool-

ing operation, R-W1 energizes the compressor and reversing

valve for heating operation. The reversing valve is set up to

be energized in the heating mode. The circuit board has a fan

interlock circuit to energize the fan whenever the compressor

is on if the thermostat logic fails to do so.

The Mark IV/AC control board has a lockout circuit to stop

compressor operation if any one of its safety switches opens

(high pressure switch and low pressure switch on unit sizes

048 and 060). If the low temperature switch opens, the unit

will go into the cooling mode for 60 seconds to defrost any

slush in the water-to-refrigerant heat exchanger. After 60

seconds the compressor is locked out. If the condensate

sensor detects a filled drain pan, the compressor operation

will be suspended only in the cooling mode. The unit is reset

by opening and closing the disconnect switch on the main

power supply to the unit in the event the unit compressor

operation has been suspended due to low temperature

(freezestat) switch, high pressure switch, or low pressure

switch on unit sizes 048 and 060. The unit does not have to

be reset on a condensate overflow detection.

The Mark IV/AC control board has a fault output signal to

an LED on a wall thermostat. Figure 28 shows for which

functions the fault output is “on” (sending a signal to the

LED).

The Mark IV/AC control board has built-in night setback

operation. A “grounded” signal to the “U” terminal on the low

voltage terminal strip puts the unit into the unoccupied mode

for night setback operation. The fan shuts off and the unit is

put under control from the night setback terminal on the

thermostat, W2; day heating and cooling operation is locked

out. R-W2 energizes the compressor and reversing valve for

heating operation. Night setback operation can be overrid-

den for two hours by toggling the fan switch (intermittently

closing the R to O terminals) on the Deluxe Auto Changeover

thermostat. Day thermostat setpoints the control the heating

and cooling operation. The Mark IV/AC control system is also

set up for load shed and shutdown operation on receipt of a

“grounded” signal to the “L” and “E” terminals, respectively,

on the low voltage terminal strip. See Figure 29.

The P and C terminals of the Mark IV/AC board are used

for pump restart. These terminals pass a voltage signal

whenever the unit compressor is turned on. This signal is

detected by a pump restart relay board providing an N.O. or

N.C. set of contacts for heat pump loop circulation pump

control. When used with the Loop Water Controller, the relay

operation accommodates turning off circulation pump con-

trol. When used with the Loop Water Controller, the relay

operation accommodates turning off circulation pumps dur-

ing unoccupied periods with a safety override dependent on,

at minimum, one WSHP's need. The P and C terminals may

be “daisy-chained” between 200 units. See page 19.

To activate the unoccupied mode for units on the same clock schedule, a single wire can be

“daisy-chained” between units and simply grounded through the time clock contacts. The

same system can also be done to activate the load shed and emergency shutdown modes

by running additional wires between units to ground.

General Use and Information

The Mark IV/AC control board is provided with three drive terminals,

R(24vac), F(24vdc), and C(Ovac) that can be used by the end user to

drive the thermostat inputs (G, Y1, W1, and W2) and control inputs

(U, L, E, and O). Any combination of a single board drive terminal (R,

F, or C) may be used to operate the Mark IV/AC boards control or

thermostat inputs. However, only one drive terminal (R, F, or C) can

be connected to any individual input terminal or damage will occur.

Some of the control inputs are used within the Water Source Heat

Pump and not accessible to the end user. For example, HP, LT, and

COF are not available for use by the end user.

Typically the Mark IV/AC board’s R(24vac) terminal is used to drive

the board’s thermostat inputs and control inputs by connecting it to

the R terminal of an industry standard thermostat. The control

outputs of the standard thermostat are then connected to the Mark

IV/AC board thermostat inputs and control inputs as needed. Any

remaining board input(s) may be operated by additional thermostat

outputs or remote relays (dry contacts only).

All Mark IV/AC board inputs must be operated by dry contacts

devices (Triacs) may be used to operate Mark IV/AC board inputs.

No outside power sources may be used to operate Mark IV/AC

board inputs.

Note: The fault output is energized when no faults exist. The fault output is

de-energized during faults and when unit power is off.

Remote Reset of Manual Lockouts – The Remote Reset feature

provides the means to remotely reset automatic lockouts generated

by high-pressure and/or low-temperature (in heating) faults. When

the Mark IV board is in automatic lockout due to one of these faults,

and the cause of the fault condition has been alleviated, energizing

the O-terminal for 10 seconds or more will force the Mark IV board

to clear the lockout. A unit power cycle can also be used to clear an

automatic lockout if the conditions causing the fault have been

alleviated.

Fault Retry To Minimize Nuisance Trips – The Fault Retry feature

helps to minimize nuisance trips of automatic lockouts caused by

high-pressure and/or low-temperature (in heating) faults. This feature

clears faults the first two times they occur within a 24-hour period and

triggers an automatic lockout on the 3rd fault. The retry count is reset

to zero every 24 hours.

Motorized Valve & Relay for Unit Sizes 007 to 060

The auxiliary relay is designed to interface external equip-

ment with the Mark IV/AC board. The auxiliary relay has been

provided with the components necessary to protect from

electrical damage that may occur to the Mark IV/AC board

when using standard off-the-self relays. The auxiliary relay

can be used to provide fault signals, unit operation signals,

or to provide a means for remote equipment to control the

Mark IV/AC board. The orange, yellow, and white connec-

tions are short flying leads pre-attached to the board. The

diagrams shown are some connection examples.

Auxilliary Relay (P/N 106059701)

Wired as shown below the motorized valve will open on

a call for compressor operation. Valves for unit sizes

007 to 019 are

⁄2" power-open spring-return, while unit

sizes 024 to 060 are

⁄4" power-open spring-return.

Other thermostat combinations may be used. Valve and

auxiliary relay are purchased separately.

Note: The wiring shown below can only be used when the “P” terminal

is not being used as a pump restart signal to other equipment. If the

“P” terminal must be used as a pump restart signal to other equipment,

then wire the auxiliary relay’s yellow wire to “Y1”, white wire to “W1”,

and orange wire to “C”, then the valve will open on a call for occupied

heating or cooling from the thermostat.

The BSK option for use with the Mark IV/AC control board

provides the capability to control a remote duct heater. The

duct heater must be provided with a low voltage control

circuit that only requires a set of dry contacts for operation.

The contacts shown on the Boilerless System board (termi-

nals 1, 2, and 3) are used to control the remote duct heater,

the N.O. contacts will close on a call for duct heater heat.

POT1 provides a means to manually adjust the water tem-

perature setpoint (adjustment range is 43

F to 60

F). The

The BSK field installed kits include the sheet metal enclosure

with cover, wire harness, boilerless system board, auxiliary

relay, and water temperature sensor. When used, one BSK is

required for each unit. To use the BSK kit you attach the sheet

metal enclosure to the unit as shown, route the 4-wire

harness through knockouts and connect to the Mark IV/AC

board, mount and connect and insulate the water tempera-

ture sensor on the water supply line, and then connect the

duct heater control contacts to the duct heater control

circuit.
