SETTING THE UNIT

Refer to unit dimensions on page 2 for sizing mounting slab, platforms or supports. Refer to figure 1 for installation clearances.

INSTALLATION CLEARANCES

36

(914 mm)

(91436mm)

*36

(914 mm)

(914*36mm)

NOTE—48 inch clearance required on top of unit. *NOTE—One side must be 36 inches. Two side may be 12”.

FIGURE 1

Slab Mounting

When installing unit at grade level, install on a level slab high enough above grade to allow adequate drainage of water. Top of slab should be located so run--off water from higher ground will not collect around unit.

Roof Mounting

Install unit at a minimum of 4 inches above the surface of the roof. Care must be taken to ensure weight of unit is properly distributed over roof joists and rafters. Either redwood or steel supports are recommended.

ELECTRICAL

In the U.S.A., wiring must conform with current local codes and the current National Electric Code (NEC). In Canada, wiring must conform with current local codes and the current Canadian Electrical Code (CEC). 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.

WARNING

Unit must be grounded in accordance with national and local codes. Electric Shock Hazard.

Can cause injury or death.

Line Voltage

To facilitate conduit, a hole is provided in bottom of the control box. Connect conduit to hole in control box with proper conduit fitting.

PLUMBING

Field refrigerant piping consists of liquid and suction lines from the condensing unit (sweat connections) to the indoor evaporator coil (flare or sweat connections). Use Lennox L10 (flare) or L15 (sweat, non-flare) series line sets as shown in table 1 or use field-fabricated refrigerant lines. Refer to unit information manual piping section for proper size, type and application of field-- fabricated lines.

Sweat Connection Procedure

1-- Ends of refrigerant lines must be cut square, free from nicks or dents, deburred. Pipe must remain round, do not pinch end of line.

2-- Wrap a wet cloth around the liquid line valve body and copper tube stub to protect from heat damage during brazing. Wrap another wet cloth underneath the liquid valve to protect the base paint.

3-- Quench the joints with a wet cloth to prevent possible heat damage to the valve core and opening port.

4-- A field provided filter drier should be installed as close as possible to the expansion device.

REFRIGERANT METERING DEVICE

10ACB units are applicable to either RFCIV or an expansion valve system. See indoor coil installation instructions and the Lennox engineering handbook for approved RFC and TXV match-ups and application information. Table 1 lists 10ACB unit liquid and suction line sizes and corresponding line sets.

NOTE -- Line length should be no greater than 50 feet (15.2 m). Select line set diameters from table 1 to ensure oil return to compressor.

RFC Systems

10ACB units are shipped with an RFCIV metering device. Replace existing RFCIV in indoor unit with RFCIV supplied with the outdoor unit. Place the supplied RFCIV sticker on indoor cabinet after installation. See table 2 for size of RFCIV bullet shipped in each 10ACB unit. In cases of non-traditional applications, RFCIV bullet shipped may not be appropriate. Refer to the indoor coil installation instructions and the engineering handbook for specific orifice information.
