Some units are equipped with compressor crankcase heaters, which should be energized at least 24 hours prior to cooling operation, to clear any liquid refrigerant from the compressors.
Never cut off the main power supply to the unit, except for servicing, emergency, or complete shutdown of the unit. When power is cut off from the unit crankcase heaters cannot prevent refrigerant migration into the compressors. This means the compressor will cool down and liquid refrigerant may accumulate in the compressor. The compressor is designed to pump refrigerant gas and damage may occur when power is restored.
If power to the unit must be off for more than an hour, turn the thermostat system switch to "OFF", or turn the unit off at the control panel, and leave the unit off until the main power switch has been turned on again for at least 24 hours for units with compressor crankcase heaters. This will give the crankcase heater time to clear any liquid accumulation out of the compressor before it is started.
Always control the unit from the thermostat, or control panel, never at the main power supply, except for servicing, emergency or complete shutdown of the unit.
During the cooling season, if the air flow is reduced due to dirty air filters or any other reason, the cooling coils can get too cold which will cause excessive liquid to return to the compressor. As the liquid

concentration builds up, oil is washed out of the compressor, leaving it starved for lubrication.
The compressor life will be seriously shorted by reduced lubrication and the pumping of excessive amounts of liquid oil and refrigerant.
Note: Low Ambient Operation Air-cooled DX units without a low ambient option, such as condenser fan cycling or the 0°F low ambient option, will not operate in the cooling mode of operation properly when the outdoor temperature is below 55°F. Low ambient and/or economizer options are recommended if cooling operation below 55°F is expected.
Polyolester (POE) and Polyvinylether (PVE) oils are two types of lubricants used in hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigeration systems. Refer to the compressor label for the proper compressor lubricant type.
Note: Multiple Units with Multiple Thermostats When several heating and cooling units are used to condition a space all unit thermostat switches must be set in either heating mode,
cooling mode or off. Do not leave part of the units switched to the opposite mode. Cooling only units should be switched off at the thermostat during the heating season.
Gas or Electric Heating
The unit is designed to heat a given amount of air while operating. If this amount of air is greatly reduced, approximately 1/3 during the heating season, the gas heat exchanger or electric heating coil may overheat, and may cut the burner or heater off entirely by action of the safety high temperature limit devices which are factory mounted at the heat exchanger and supply fan areas.
Airflow should be adjusted after installation to obtain an air temperature rise within the range specified on the unit rating plate at the required external static pressure. Should overheating occur with a gas heat exchanger, or the gas supply fail to shut off, shut off the manual gas valve to the furnace before shutting off the electrical supply.
Prolonged overheating of the heat exchanger will shorten its life. If unit has not been selected as a 100% outside air unit (makeup air unit) the return air duct must be sealed to the unit and the return air temperature must be maintained
between 55°F and 80°F.

Three phase voltage imbalance will cause motor overheating and premature failure. The maximum allowable imbalance is 2.0%.
Voltage imbalance is defined as 100 times the maximum deviation from the average voltage divided by the average voltage.
Example: (221V+230V+227V)/3 = 226V, then 100*(226V-221V)/226V = 2.2%, which exceeds the allowable imbalance.
Check voltage imbalance at the unit disconnect switch and at the compressor terminal. Contact your local power company for line voltage corrections.
Installing contractor must check for proper motor rotation and check blower motor amperage listed on the motor nameplate is not exceeded. Motor overload protection may be a function of the variable frequency drive and must not be bypassed.
Rotation must be checked on all MOTORS AND COMPRESSORS of three phase units. Supply fan, exhaust fan, return fan, and condenser fan motors should all be checked by a qualified service technician at startup and any wiring alteration should only be made at the unit power connection.
N
Scroll compressors are directional and will be damaged by operation in the wrong direction. Low pressure switches on compressors have been disconnected after factory testing. Rotation should be checked by a qualified service technician at startup using suction and discharge pressure gauges and any wiring alteration should only be made at the unit power connection.
Wire control signals to the unit’s low voltage terminal block located in the controls compartment.
If any factory installed wiring must be replaced, use a minimum 105°C type AWM insulated conductors.
No variable speed compressor shall operate below 35 Hz. Operating variable speed compressors outside the frequency range specified in this manual voids all warranties and may result in compressor failure.
Thermostat Control Wiring
If a thermostat is used for unit control, thermostat should be located on an inside wall 4-5 feet above the floor where it will not be subjected to drafts, sun exposure, or heat from electrical fixtures of appliances. Control wiring must deliver adequate voltage to components to assure proper operation. Control voltage returning from controller circuit must be a minimum of 21 VAC. To assure proper wiring use the following chart to determine the allowable wiring distances.

Take the total wire distance allowable and divide by the quantity of wires to be connected. This indicates the distance allowable for that size wire. The wiring to the unit must not exceed the total wire distance allowable. If the voltage at the connectors is less than 21 VAC, isolation relays must be installed. If under external control 21 VAC must be field verified.
All external devices must be powered via a separate external power supply.
Example: A total of 8 wires must be pulled 75ft to a control the unit. What size wire should be used?
According to the Table 3, 16 AWG allows for 63ft (500 ft/8 wires) and 14 AWG allows for 94ft (750 ft/8 wires). Thus, 14 AWG should be used.

From the propane gas maximum capacities table, at 100 ft and 270 kBtu/hr the required minimum pipe size is 1”.
Inlet and Manifold Pressures
For natural gas units, the minimum inlet gas pressure to the unit is 6” w.c. and maximum inlet gas pressure to the unit is 10.5” w.c. For propane units, the minimum inlet gas pressure to the unit is 11” w.c. and the maximum inlet gas pressure to the unit is 13” w.c. A field provided 1/8” NPT pressure tap is required to be installed in the piping just upstream of the shutoff valve for test gage connection to allow checking of the gas supply pressure at the unit.
A factory installed pressure tap on the outlet end of the gas valve can be used to verify a manifold pressure of 3.5” w.c. for natural gas, or 10.5” w.c. for propane.
N
Heater should be disconnected from the gas supply piping during pressure testing of the supply piping system with pressures in excess of ½ psi. Gas valves can be damaged if subjected to more than ½ psi.
Gas Pressure Regulator & Overpressure Protection Device
A gas pressure regulator must be installed if natural gas supply pressure to the unit is greater than 10.5” w.c. and less than 2 psi (55.4” w.c.) and if propane gas supply pressure is greater than 13” w.c. and less than 2 psi (55.4” w.c.). Regulators must comply with the latest edition of the Standard for Line Pressure Regulators, ANSI Z21.80/CSA 6.22.
Both a gas pressure regulator and overpressure protection device (OPD) must be installed if gas supply pressure to the unit is greater than 2 psi (55.4” w.c.) and less than 5 psi (138.4” w.c.), in compliance with ANSI Z21.80/CSA 6.22. For proper heater operation, pressure to the regulator MUST NOT be greater than 5 psi (138.4” w.c.).
Piping Supports
Gas supply piping must be supported directly at the connection to the unit and at intervals listed in the following table with metal straps, blocks, or hooks. Piping should not be strained or bent.

Additional Gas Piping Considerations
Local codes will usually require a field provided and installed manual main shutoff valve and union external to the unit. Main shutoff valve should be labeled. A drip leg should be installed near the unit connection to trap sediment and condensate. Pipe joint compounds used on all gas piping connections should be resistant to liquid petroleum gases. If flexible gas piping to the unit, or in the unit, must be replaced connectors cannot be reused, only new connectors may be used.
Heat exchanger comes equipped with a condensate drain which should be plumbed to the appropriate drain according to the (United States) National Fuel Gas Code ANSI-Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the current (Canada) National Fuel & Propane
Installation Code CSA B149.1 or B149.2, the International Building Code, and any applicable local and regional codes and regulations.
The condensate drain connection is located next to the gas entry location. For 11, 13, 16-25 and 30, the heat exchanger condensate drain connection from the unit is a 5/8” barbed nylon elbow connection.

Leak Testing
All components of gas supply system, including manual shut off valves and the piping in the interior of the unit, should be leak tested with a soap solution before operating the appliance and at least on an annual basis thereafter.
DANGER
LEAK CHECK GAS PIPE
The gas pipe in the unit should be checked for leaks before startup. Leak checking is the responsibility of the installing contractor. All connections should be checked for leaks annually after installation. Failure to leak check could result in fire, explosion, or other hazardous situations.
DAN
ER
Do not use open flame or other source of ignition for leak testing. Fire or explosion could result causing property damage, personal injury, or death.
N
Some soaps used for leak detection can be corrosive to certain metals. Rinse piping thoroughly after leak test has been completed.
All gas fired heat exchangers are completely tested at the factory before shipment. This will remove nearly all of the oils that have been used in the manufacturing process.
However, trace amounts may remain. When performing the initial startup at the jobsite, it is highly recommended that people or any other living animals, which may be sensitive to the residual odors or gases, NOT be present in the conditioned space during the startup. In all cases, including the initial factory firing and testing, any of the gases will be under the acceptable level of concentration for human occupancy.

Prior to connection of condensing water supply, verify water pressure is less than maximum pressure shown on unit nameplate. To prevent injury or death due to instantaneous release of high pressure water, relief valves should be field supplied on water piping. Supply water connection may require a backflow preventer to prevent supply makeup water from backing up into the public water system.

Before connection to the unit the condenser water system should be flushed to remove foreign material that could cause condenser fouling. Install a screen strainer with a minimum of 20 Mesh ahead of the condenser inlet to prevent condenser fouling and internal tube damage. Mineral content of the condenser water must be controlled. All makeup water has minerals in it and as the water is evaporated in the cooling tower, these minerals remain. As the mineral content of the water increases, the conductivity of the water increases.
Follow national and local codes when installing water piping. Connections to the unit should incorporate vibration eliminators to reduce noise and vibration and shutoff valves to facilitate servicing. Supply and return water piping must be at least as large as the unit connections and larger depending on length of runs, rise and bends.
Field provided and installed water treatment program must be compatible with stainless steel, copper, aluminum, ABS plastic, and PVC. Batch feed processes should never be used as concentrated chemicals can cause corrosion. Never use hydrochloric acid (muriatic acid) or chlorine as it will corrode stainless steel.

PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) and CPVC (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride) are vulnerable to attack by certain chemicals. Polyolester (POE) oils used with R-410A and other refrigerants, even in trace amounts, in a PVC or CPVC piping system will result in stress cracking of the piping and fittings and complete piping system failure.
Each heat exchanger is equipped with a refrigerant pressure relief device to relieve pressure should excessive condensing pressures (>675 psig) occur. Codes may require installing contractor to connect and route relief piping outdoors. The relief valve has a 5/8” male flare outlet connection.
NOTE: Ball valves should be installed in the condenser water supply and return lines for unit isolation and water flow balancing. All manual flow valves should be of the ball valve design. Globe or gate valves should not be used due to high pressure drops and poor throttling characteristics. Pressure and temperature ports are recommended in condenser water supply and return lines for system balancing. These openings should be 5 to 10 pipe diameters from the unit water connections. To allow for mixing and temperature stabilization, wells in the water piping should extend at least ½ pipe diameter into the pipe.

Condensate Drain Piping
11, 13, 16-25 and 30 ton units are equipped with one condensate drain pan connection, on the right side of the unit, and are furnished with a p-trap for field installation.
All drain connections must be used and individually trapped to ensure a minimum amount of condensate accumulation in the drain pans. ABS type cement should be used to join the drain pipe connections.
Note: The drain pan connections are 1.5” MPT fitting.
Drainage of condensate directly onto the roof may be acceptable in certain areas, refer to local codes. If condensate is to drain directly onto the roof a small drip pad should be placed below the drain to protect the roof from possible damage.
If condensate is piped into the building drainage system, the drain pipe should penetrate the roof external to the unit itself. The drain line should be pitched away from the unit at least 1/8 inch per foot. On longer runs an air break should be used to ensure proper drainage.
Condensate drain trapping and piping should conform to all applicable governing codes.
Unit should not be operated without a p-trap. Failure to install a p-trap may result in overflow of condensate water into the unit.
Draw-through cooling coils will have a negative static pressure in the drain pan area. This will cause an un-trapped drain to back up due to air being pulled up through the condensate drain piping.

Draw-Through Coils
Figure 14 - Draw-Through Drain Trap
The X dimension on the draw-through trap should be at least equal to the absolute value of the negative static pressure in the drain pan plus one inch. To calculate the static pressure at the drain pan add the pressure drops of all components upstream of the drain pan, including the cooling coil, and add the return duct static pressure. Include the dirt allowance pressure drop for the filters to account for the worst-case scenario.
The height from top of the bottom bend of the trap to the bottom of the leaving pipe must be at least equal to one half of the X dimension. This ensures that enough water is stored in the trap to prevent losing the drain seal during unit startup
Note: The absolute value of the fan inlet pressure will always be greater than or equal to the absolute value of the static pressure in the drain pan on draw-through units, so the fan inlet pressure is a safe value to use for the drain pan static pressure.

If a safety is reached with the controller’s safety sensors then the electric preheat will be de-energized for a period of 2 minutes. Electric preheat will turn on stage one at 100% for 3 minutes to test if fault conditions still exist after the cool down period. The controller will repeat this and if 3 trips are recorded in 60 minutes then the controller will lockout and require manually cycling power to reset.
The modulating electric preheat option is designed to temper the incoming outside air to the unit based on an enable control signal and the outside air conditions. A 24VAC enable signal must be provided to the [PHE] terminal to enable the operation of the electric preheat. Once the preheat controller is enabled it will monitor the outside air temperature to determine if any capacity of preheat is needed. If the outside air temperature falls below the outside air temperature setpoint the electric preheat will be started up and maintain the leaving air temperature setpoint with both SCR controlled and staged electric preheat. Both setpoints are set with push button LCD interface on the preheat controller. Outside air temperature sensors and preheat discharge supply air temperature sensors are factory installed and wired to the preheat controller. Electric preheat has maximum operating outside air temperature of 60°F and a maximum preheat discharge air temperature of 80°F.
[COM], [PHO] & [PHC] feedback terminals are provided to communicate if the electric preheat is in operation. PHO is a normally open contact, PHC is a normally closed contact, and COM is the common. These terminals are not required to be connected. [PHE] is the electric preheat operation enable. [PH+] and [PH-] are the preheat set point reset terminals.
Energy Recovery Units
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause property damage, personal injury or loss of life. Startup and service must be performed by a Factory Trained Service Technician.
General Information
AAONAIRE® units have been equipped with an energy recovery wheel. This section is provided to assure the energy recovery feature will be properly setup to perform in accordance with the job specifications for your particular application.
The Energy Recovery Cassette consists of a frame wheel, wheel drive system, and energy transfer segments. Segments are removable for cleaning or replacement. The segments rotate through counter flowing exhaust and outdoor air supply streams where they transfer heat and/or water vapor from the warm, moist air stream to the cooler and/or drier air stream. The initial setup and servicing of the energy recovery wheel is very important to maintain proper operation efficiency and building occupant comfort.
WARNIN
Energy Recovery Wheel
55
Page 56
Normal maintenance requires periodic inspection of filters, the cassette wheel, drive belts, air seals, wheel drive motor, and its electrical connections.
Wiring diagrams are provided with each motor. When wired according to wiring diagram, motor rotates clockwise when viewed from the shaft/pulley side.
By carefully reviewing the information within this section and following the instructions, the risk of improper operation and/or component damage will be minimized.
It is important that periodic maintenance be performed to help assure trouble free operation.
Initial Mechanical Check and Setup
Outdoor units equipped with outside air intake will have an outside air hood. The outside air hood must be opened prior to unit operation.
Outdoor air intake adjustments should be made according to building ventilation, or local code requirements.
After the unit installation is complete, open the cassette access door and determine that the energy wheel rotates freely when turned by hand. Apply power and observe that the wheel rotates at approximately 30 RPM. If the wheel does not rotate when power is applied, it may be necessary to readjust the “diameter air seals”.
Air Seal Adjustments
Pile type air seals across both sides of the energy wheel diameter are factory adjusted to provide close clearance between the air seal and wheel. Racking of the unit or cassette during installation, and/or mounting
of the unit on a non-level support or in other than the factory orientation can change seal clearances. Tight seals will prevent rotation.
Cross Section of Air Seal Structure
Wheel to Air Seal Clearance
To check wheel to seal clearance; first disconnect power to the unit, in some units the energy recovery wheel assembly can be pulled out from the cabinet to view the air seals. On larger units, the energy recovery wheel may be accessible inside the walk-in cabinet.
A business card or two pieces of paper can be used as a feller gauge, (typically each .004” thick) by placing it between the face of the wheel and pile seal.
Using the paper, determine if a loose slip fit exist between the pile seal and wheel when the wheel is rotated by hand.
To adjust air seal clearance, loosen all seal plate retaining screws holding the separate seal retaining plates to the bearing support channels and slide the seals plates away from the wheel. Using the paper feeler gauge, readjust and retighten one seal plate at a time to provide slip fit clearance when the wheel is rotated by hand.
Confirm that the wheel rotates freely. Apply power to the unit and confirm rotation.

Airflow Balancing and Checking
High performance systems commonly have complex air distribution and fan systems. Unqualified personnel should not attempt to adjust fan operation, or air circulation, as all systems have unique operations characteristics. Professional air balance specialists should be employed to establish actual operating conditions, and to configure the air delivery system for optimal performance.

A variety of controls and electrical accessories may be provided with the equipment. Identify the controls on each unit by consulting appropriate submittal, or order documents, and operate according to the control manufacturer’s instructions. If you cannot locate installation, operation, or maintenance information for the specific controls, then contact your sales representative, or the control manufacturer for assistance.

ancies.
Lifting Hole Locations
Routine maintenance of the Energy Recovery Cassettes includes periodic cleaning of the Energy Recovery Wheel as well as inspection of the Air Seals and Wheel Drive Components as follows:
Cleaning
The need for periodic cleaning of the energy recovery wheel will be a function of operating schedule, climate and contaminants in the indoor air being exhausted and the outdoor air being supplied to the building.
The energy recovery wheel is “self­cleaning” with respect to dry particles due to its laminar flow characteristics. Smaller particles pass through; larger particles land on the surface and are blown clear as the flow direction is reversed. Any material that builds up on the face of the wheel can be removed with a brush or vacuum. The primary need for cleaning is to remove oil based aerosols that have condensed on energy transfer surfaces. A characteristic of all dry desiccants, such films can close off micron sized pores at the surface of the desiccant material, reducing the efficiency by which the desiccant can
57
Page 58
CAUTIO
adsorb and desorb moisture and also build up so as to reduce airflow.
In a reasonably clean indoor environment such as a school or office building, measurable reductions of airflow or loss of sensible (temperature) effectiveness may not occur for several years. Measurable changes in latent energy (water vapor) transfer can occur in shorter periods of time in applications such as moderate occupant smoking or cooking facilities. In applications experiencing unusually high levels of occupant smoking or oil based aerosols such as industrial applications involving the ventilation of machine shop areas for example, annual washing of energy transfer may be necessary to maintain latent transfer efficiency. Proper cleaning of the energy recovery wheel will restore latent effectiveness to near original performance.
To clean, gain access to the energy recovery wheel and remove segments. Brush foreign material from the face of the wheel. Wash the segments or small wheels in a 5% solution of non-acid based coil cleaner or alkaline detergent and warm water.
Do not use acid based cleaners, aromatic solvents, steam or temperatures in excess of 170°F; damage to the wheel may occur!
Soak in the solution until grease and tar deposits are loosened (Note: some staining of the desiccant may remain and is not harmful to performance). Before removing, rapidly run finger across surface of segment to separate polymer strips for better cleaning action. Rinse dirty solution from segment and remove excess water before reinstalling in wheel.
N
Air Seals Four adjustable diameter seals are provided on each cassette to minimize transfer of air between the counter flowing airstreams.
To adjust diameter seals, loosen diameter seal adjusting screws and back seals away from wheel surface. Rotate wheel clockwise until two opposing spokes are hidden behind the bearing support beam. Using a folded piece of paper as a feeler gauge, position paper between the wheel surface and diameter seals.
Adjust seals towards wheel surface until a slight friction on the feeler gauge (paper) is detected when gauge is moved along the length of the spoke. Retighten adjusting screws and recheck clearance with “feeler” gauge.
Wheel Drive Components
The wheel drive motor bearings are pre­lubricated and no further lubrication is necessary.
The wheel drive pulley is secured to the drive motor shaft by a combination of either a key or D slot and set screw.
The set screw is secured with removable locktite to prevent loosening. Annually confirm set screw is secure. The wheel drive belt is a urethane stretch belt designed to provide constant tension through the life of the belt. No adjustment is required. Inspect the drive belt annually for proper tracking and tension. A properly tensioned belt will turn the wheel immediately after power is applied with no visible slippage during start­up.

Installation Considerations Energy recovery cassettes are incorporated within the design of packaged units, packaged air handlers and energy recovery ventilators. In each case, it is recommended that the following considerations be addressed:
Accessibility
The cassette and all its operative parts; i.e.: motor, belt, pulley, bearings, seals and energy transfer segments must be accessible for service and maintenance. This design requires that adequate clearance be provided outside the enclosure. Where cassettes are permanently installed in a cabinet, access to both sides of the cassette must be provided.
Orientation & Support
The Energy Recovery Cassette may be mounted in any orientation. However, Care must be taken to make certain that the cassette frame remains flat and the bearing beams are not racked.
Frame

Operation
Keep hands away from rotating wheel! Contact with rotating wheel can cause physical injury.
Startup Procedure
1. By hand, turn wheel clockwise (as viewed from the pulley side), to verify wheel turns freely through 360º rotation.
2. Before applying power to drive motor, confirm wheel segments are fully engaged in wheel frame and segment retainers are completely fastened. (See Segment Installation Diagram).
3. With hands and objects away from moving parts, activate unit and confirm wheel rotation. Wheel rotates clockwise (as viewed from the pulley side).
4. If wheel has difficulty starting, turn power off and inspect for excessive interference between the wheel surface and each of the four (4) diameter seals. To correct, loosen diameter seal adjusting screws and back adjustable diameter seals away from surface of wheel, apply power to confirm wheel is free to rotate, then re-adjust and tighten hub and diameter seals, as shown in hub seal adjustment diagram.
5. Start and stop wheel several times to confirm seal adjustment and to confirm belt is tracking properly on wheel rim (approximately 1/4” from outer edge of rim).

Segment Installation & Replacement
Wheel segments are secured to the wheel frame by a Segment Retainer which pivots on the wheel rim and is held in place by a Segment Retaining Catch.
Segment Retainer
To install wheel segments follow steps one through five below. Reverse procedure for segment removal.
1. Unlock two segment retainers (one on each side of the selected segment opening.
2. With the embedded stiffener facing the motor side, insert the nose of the segment between the hub plates.
Segment Installation
3. Holding segment by the two outer corners, press the segment towards the center of the wheel and inwards against the spoke flanges. If hand pressure does not fully seat the segment, insert the flat tip of a screw driver between the wheel rim and outer corners of the segment and apply downward force while guiding the segment into place.
4. Close and latch each Segment Retainer under Segment Retaining Catch.

Startup
(See back of the manual for startup form.)
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause property damage, personal injury or loss of life. Startup and service must be performed by a Factory Trained Service Technician.
Electric shock hazard. Shut off all electrical power to the unit to avoid shock hazard or injury from rotating parts.
During startup, it is necessary to perform routine checks on the performance of the unit. This includes checking the air flow, air filters, condenser water flow, dampers, heaters, and refrigerant charge.
Supply Fans
RN Series units are equipped with direct drive backward curved plenum fan assemblies that are selected to deliver the air volume specified according to unit size and job requirements. This is either done with air volume bands in the blower wheels or with variable frequency drives. Field airflow adjustment may be required at startup.
Air volume bands for the wheels are sized according to the unit’s air delivery specifications and can also be ordered from the factory for field installation. Wheels come standard with a 10% air volume band, as a safety factor, in case additional air volume is required from the unit.
WARNIN
WARNIN
Air Flow Adjustment
If reduced air volume is required an air volume band or larger air volume band can be installed within the blower wheel to reduce the amount of air delivered by the wheel.
If the unit is factory equipped with the air volume band and additional air volume is required, the band can be removed from the wheel.
Use fan program in AAON ECat to determine the new band size for the required cfm and static pressure.
The following photos of a wheel are provided for practical guidelines only in order to identify the air band location in the wheel. Actual field installation of the air band into the wheel will require access into and through the blower wheel venture, which may require removal of the blower motor and wheel.
Air volume bands are made of aluminum, sized and equipped with easy bend tabs that are to be inserted into pre-punched slots provided on the wheel. Once the band has been inserted into the slots, it MUST BE secured by bending the tabs over from the back side of the wheel and also MUST BE secured from the inside by connecting the ends together with a pop-rivet in the holes provided on the ends of the band.
If the band is field installed, a hand held pop-rivet tool is recommended for connecting the band ends together. Caution must be taken to assure that the band is tightly installed and no damage, denting or alteration to the wheel or blades occurs during the installation.

The gap tolerances that are allowed between the blower and the inlet cone for the plenum fan blowers are shown in Figure 17. The inlet cone can be moved as necessary to center the cone in relation to the blower. The blower can be moved on the motor shaft to set the correct overlap. These tolerances are critical to the performance of the blower.

Adjusting Refrigerant Charge Adjusting the charge of a system in the field must be based on determination of liquid sub-cooling and evaporator superheat. On a system with a TXV liquid sub-cooling is more representative of the charge than evaporator superheat but both measurements must be taken.
The Clean Air Act of 1990 bans the intentional venting of refrigerant (CFC’s and HCFC’s) as of July 1,
1992. Approved methods of recovery, recycling or reclaiming must be followed. Fines and/or incarceration may be levied for non-compliance.
Before Charging
Unit being charged must be at or near full load conditions before adjusting the charge.
Units equipped with hot gas reheat must be charged with the hot gas reheat valves closed while the unit is in cooling mode to get the proper charge. After charging, unit should be operated in reheat (dehumidification) mode to check for correct operation.
Units equipped with heat pump options should be charged in heating mode to get the proper charge. After charging, unit should be operated in cooling mode to check for correct charge. Charge may need to be adjusted for cooling mode. If adjustments are made in the cooling mode heating mode must be rerun to verify proper operation.
After adding or removing charge the system must be allowed to stabilize, typically 10-15 minutes, before making any other adjustments.
N
The type of unit and options determine the ranges for liquid sub-cooling and evaporator superheat. Refer to the table below when determining the proper sub-cooling.
Checking Liquid Sub-Cooling
Measure the temperature of the liquid line as it leaves the condenser coil.
Read the gauge pressure at the liquid line close to the point where the temperature was taken. You must use liquid line pressure as it will vary from discharge pressure due to condenser coil pressure drop.
Convert the pressure obtained to a saturated temperature using the appropriate refrigerant temperature-pressure chart.
Subtract the measured liquid line temperature from the saturated temperature to determine the liquid sub-cooling.
Compare calculated sub-cooling to the table below for the appropriate unit type and options.
Checking Evaporator Superheat
Measure the temperature of the suction line close to the compressor.
Read gauge pressure at the suction line close to the compressor.
Convert the pressure obtained to a saturated temperature using the appropriate refrigerant temperature-pressure chart.
Subtract the saturated temperature from the measured suction line temperature to determine the evaporator superheat.
Compare calculated superheat to the table below for the appropriate unit type and options.

Adjusting Sub-cooling and Superheat Temperatures
The system is overcharged if the sub-cooling temperature is too high and the evaporator is fully loaded (low loads on the evaporator result in increased sub-cooling) and the evaporator superheat is within the temperature range as shown in the table above (high superheat results in increased sub-cooling).
Correct an overcharged system by reducing the amount of refrigerant in the system to lower the sub-cooling.
15-22°F
N
The system is undercharged if the superheat is too high and the sub-cooling is too low
Correct an undercharged system by adding refrigerant to the system to reduce superheat and raise sub-cooling.
If the sub-cooling is correct and the superheat is too high, the TXV may need adjustment to correct the superheat.
Refrigerant overcharging leads to excess refrigerant in the condenser coils resulting in elevated compressor discharge pressure.
DO NOT OVERCHARGE!

VFD Controlled Condenser Fan Startup
With Customer Provided Unit Controls the VFD’s are factory provided and factory programmed. VFD’s receives input from pressure transducers on each refrigerant circuit and vary the fan speed based on the pressure inputs to maintain a discharge (head) pressure. Standard pressure setpoint is 340 psi for standard air-cooled systems and 400 psi for modulating hot gas reheat air-cooled systems.
With WattMaster Unit Controls the WattMaster Condenser Head Pressure Module is used to maintain a discharge pressure. The VFD should be factory wired to the outputs of the WattMaster Condenser Head Pressure Module. See WattMaster literature for additional information. (http://www.orioncontrols.com).

Operation
Unit operations should be controlled with thermostat, or unit controller, never at the main power supply, except for servicing, emergency, or complete shutdown of the unit.
Thermostat Operation
Heating Thermostat system switch - "Heat" Thermostat fan switch - "Auto" or "On" Thermostat temperature set to desired point.
Cooling Thermostat system switch - "Cool" Thermostat fan switch - "Auto" or "On" Thermostat temperature set to desired point.
Air Circulation Thermostat system switch - "Off" Thermostat fan switch - "Auto" or "On" No change of the thermostat temperature. With these settings, the supply blower will run continuously but the supply air will not be heated, cooled, or dehumidified.
System Off Thermostat system switch - "Off" Thermostat fan switch - "Auto" No change of the thermostat temperature. With these settings the system is shut down, with the exception of control system power.
Night and Weekend Unoccupied Operation To reduce the operating time of the unit when the space is unoccupied, such as nights and weekends, it is recommended that the temperature setting be raised about 5°F while unoccupied during the cooling season and lowered about 10°F during the heating season.

Packaged DX Cooling Operation and Control
When a call for cooling (G and Y1, Y2, etc.) is made the supply blower motors and compressors will energize.
To prevent motor overheating compressors must cycle off for a minimum of 5 minutes.
To maintain the proper oil level compressors must cycle on for a minimum of 5 minutes.
The cycle rate must not exceed 6 starts per hour.
Gas Heater Operation
When heat (G and W1, W2, etc.) is called for the combustion motor starts and the ignition control is energized. The control sends 24 VAC to the main gas valve and high voltage to the igniter. If a burner flame has been detected within 10 seconds, the spark is extinguished and the flame continues. If a flame has not been detected after 10 seconds, the gas valve closes, the spark ceases and the induced draft blower continues to purge the heat exchanger. After 45 seconds of purge, the ignition system will attempt to light the burners again. Should no flame be detected after 3 tries, the ignition control will lock out the system. Power to the ignition control must be cycled to reset the heater control.
On a fault the gas train is shut down by a main limit located in the heat exchanger area or by an auxiliary limit mounted in the supply fan compartment.

Maintenance
(See back of the manual for maintenance log)
At least once each year, a trained, qualified service technician should check out the unit. Fans, evaporator coils, and filters should be inspected at least monthly.
Gas Heating
Once a year, before the unit is in operation for the heating season, a qualified service technician should inspect all flue product carrying areas of the furnace and main burners for continued safe operation.
The gas pipe in the unit should be checked for leaks before startup. Leak checking is the responsibility of the installing contractor. All connections should be checked for leaks annually after installation. Failure to leak check could result in fire, explosion, or other hazardous situations.
Make sure all gas supply lines have been purged of air before turning on the electrical power switch. Turn the gas valve to the on position (see startup instructions). Turn the main electrical power on and set the controls to the heating mode of operation.
The combustion ventilation motor should operate. The control will automatically supply energy to the igniter and the gas valve after the heating call is made. The flame sensing probe detects the presence of the flame. Should no flame be

LEAK CHECK GAS PIPE
detected in 10 seconds, the ignition system will recycle. If no flame is detected after 3 tries, ignition system will lockout.
Remove the call for heating. The main gas valves should be extinguished.
The supply fans are controlled by the ignition system. In the fan “Auto” mode the fan comes on 45 seconds after the flame is proved and goes off 120 seconds after the heating call is removed.
Furnace combustion ventilation air and flue openings should be checked annually for debris and obstructions. If vent extensions are used they must meet category III requirements.
This appliance contains a wire screen at the vent outlet. Each heating season, prior to placing the appliance in heat mode maintenance check that no debris or foreign matter has accumulated in the vent outlet. A good practice is to check for debris each time the air filters are changed.
In the event the vent outlet becomes blocked do not attempt to start the appliance in heat mode until the entire vent opening is cleared.
In the event the unit shut down because the vent was blocked a qualified technician or service agency should monitor the unit prior to re-starting.
The gas burner and heat exchanger should never require cleaning. If cleaning is necessary, this indicates faulty operation of the unit. Cleaning should only be done by a qualified service agency and only after consultation with an AAON service representative.
If induced draft blower/motor assembly has to be replaced, care must be taken to provide an airtight seal between the blower housing and the burner box.

Brazed Plate Heat Exchanger Cleaning
Because of a normally high degree of turbulence in brazed plate heat exchangers, for many applications the heat exchanger channels are self cleaning. For applications that are not self cleaning (i.e. hard water at high temperatures, etc.) or applications where additional cleaning is desired, it is possible to clean the brazed plate heat exchanger by circulating a cleaning liquid.
Use a tank with weak acid, 5% phosphoric acid (H3PO4) or, if the exchanger is frequently cleaned, 5% oxalic acid (H2C2O4). Pump the cleaning liquid through the exchanger. For optimum cleaning, the cleaning solution flow rate should be a minimum of 1.5 times the normal flow rate, preferably in a back-flush mode. After cleaning, the heat exchanger must be rinsed with clean water. A solution of 1-2% sodium hydroxide (NaOH) or sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO) before the last rinse ensures that all acid is neutralized.
E-Coated Coil Cleaning
Documented routine cleaning of e-coated coils is required to maintain coating warranty coverage for fin and tube and microchannel coils.
Electric shock hazard. Shut off all electrical power to the unit to avoid shock hazard or injury from rotating parts.
Surface loaded fibers or dirt should be removed prior to water rinse to prevent restriction of airflow. If unable to back wash the side of the coil opposite of the coils entering air side, then surface loaded fibers or dirt should be removed with a vacuum cleaner. If a vacuum cleaner is not available, a soft non-metallic bristle brush may be used. In either case, the tool should be applied in the direction of the fins. Coil
WARNING
surfaces can be easily damaged (fin edges bent over) if the tool is applied across the fins.
Use of a water stream, such as a garden hose, against a surface loaded coil will drive the fibers and dirt into the coil. This will make cleaning efforts more difficult. Surface loaded fibers must be completely removed prior to using low velocity clean water rinse.
A monthly clean water rinse is recommended for coils that are applied in coastal or industrial environments to help to remove chlorides, dirt, and debris. It is very important when rinsing, that water temperature is less than 130°F and pressure is than 900 psig to avoid damaging the fin edges. An elevated water temperature (not to exceed 130°F) will reduce surface tension, increasing the ability to remove chlorides and dirt.
High velocity water from a pressure washer or compressed air should only be used at a very low pressure to prevent fin and/or coil damages. The force of the water or air jet may bend the fin edges and increase airside pressure drop. Reduced unit performance or nuisance unit shutdowns may occur.
Quarterly cleaning is essential to extend the life of an e-coated coil and is required to maintain coating warranty coverage.
Coil cleaning shall be part of the unit’s regularly scheduled maintenance procedures. Failure to clean an e-coated coil will void the warranty and may result in reduced efficiency and durability.

CAUTIO
Harsh chemicals, household bleach, or acid cleaners should not be used to clean outdoor or indoor e-coated coils. These cleaners can be very difficult to rinse out of the coil and can accelerate corrosion and attack the e-coating. If there is dirt below the surface of the coil, use the recommended coil cleaners.
For routine quarterly cleaning, first clean the coil with the below approved coil cleaner. After cleaning the coils with the approved cleaning agent, use the approved chloride remover to remove soluble salts and revitalize the unit.
Recommended Coil Cleaner The following cleaning agent, assuming it is used in accordance with the manufacturer’s directions on the container for proper mixing and cleaning, has been approved for use on e-coated coils to remove mold, mildew, dust, soot, greasy residue, lint, and other particulate:
Enviro-Coil Concentrate, Part Number H­EC01.
Recommended Chloride Remover CHLOR*RID DTS™ should be used to remove soluble salts from the e-coated coil, but the directions must be followed closely. This product is not intended for use as a degreaser. Any grease or oil film should first be removed with the approved cleaning agent.
Remove Barrier - Soluble salts adhere themselves to the substrate. For the effective use of this product, the product must be able to come in contact with the salts. These salts may be beneath any soils, grease or dirt; therefore, these barriers must be removed prior to application of this product. As in all
N
surface preparation, the best work yields the best results.
Apply CHLOR*RID DTS - Apply directly onto the substrate. Sufficient product must be applied uniformly across the substrate to thoroughly wet out surface, with no areas missed. This may be accomplished by use of a pump-up sprayer or conventional spray gun. The method does not matter, as long as the entire area to be cleaned is wetted. After the substrate has been thoroughly wetted, the salts will be soluble and is now only necessary to rinse them off.
Rinse - It is highly recommended that a hose be used, as a pressure washer will damage the fins. The water to be used for the rinse is recommended to be of potable quality, though a lesser quality of water may be used if a small amount of CHLOR*RID DTS is added. Check with CHLOR*RID International, Inc. for recommendations on lesser quality rinse water.
Microchannel Coil Cleaning Air-cooled heat exchangers may include microchannel coils.
Cleaning microchannel coils is necessary in all locations. In some locations it may be necessary to clean the coils more or less often than recommended. In general, a condenser coil should be cleaned at a minimum of once a year. In locations where there is commonly debris or a condition that causes dirt/grease build up it may be necessary to clean the coils more often. Proper procedure should be followed at every cleaning interval. Using improper cleaning technique or incorrect chemicals will result in coil damage, system performance fall off, and potentially leaks requiring coil replacement.
83
Page 84
Documented routine cleaning of microchannel coils with factory provided e­coating is required to maintain coating warranty coverage. Use the E-Coated Coil Cleaning section for details on cleaning e­coated coils.
Field applied coil coatings are not recommended with microchannel coils.
Allowed Chemical Cleaners and Procedures
AAON recommends certain chemicals that can be used to remove buildup of grime and debris on the surface of microchannel coils. These chemicals have been tested for performance and safety and are the only chemicals that AAON will warrant as correct for cleaning microchannel coils. There are three procedures that are outlined below that will clean the coils effectively without damage to the coils. Use of any other procedure or chemical may void the warranty to the unit where the coil is installed. With all procedures make sure the unit is off before starting.
WARNING
Electric shock hazard. Shut off all electrical power to the unit to avoid shock hazard or injury from rotating parts.
The water pressure used to clean should not exceed 140 psi, from no closer than 3 inches from the coils, and with the water aimed perpendicular to the coils.
#1 Simple Green
Simple Green is available from AAON Parts and Supply (Part# T10701) and is biodegradable with a neutral 6.5 pH. Recommendation is to use it at a 4 to 1 mix. Use the following procedure.
1. Rinse the coil completely with water.
Use a hard spray but be careful not to bend or damage the fins. A spray that is too hard will bend the fins. Spray from the fan side of the coil.
2. With a pump sprayer filled with a mix of
4 parts water to one part Simple Green spray the air inlet face of the coil. Be sure to cover all areas of the face of the coil.
3. Allow the coil to soak for 10-15 minutes.
4. Rinse the coil with water as in step one.
5. Repeat as necessary.
#2 Vinegar
This is standard white vinegar available in gallons from most grocery stores. It has a pH of 2-3, so it is slightly acidic. Use the following procedure.
1. Rinse the coil completely with water.
Use a hard spray but be careful not to bend or damage the fins. A spray that is too hard will bend the fins. Spray from the fan side of the coil.
2. Use a pump sprayer filled with vinegar
(100%). Spray from the face of the coil in the same direction as the airflow. Be sure to cover all areas of the face of the coil.
3. Allow the coil to soak for 10-15 minutes.
4. Rinse the coil with water as in step one.
5. Repeat as necessary.
84
Page 85
#3 Water Flush
This procedure can be used when the only material to cause the coil to need cleaning is debris from plant material that has impinged the coil face.
1. Rinse the coil completely with water.
Use a hard spray but be careful not to bend or damage the fins. A spray that is too hard will bend the fins. Spray from the fan side of the coil.
2. Spray and rinse the coil from the face.
CAUTION
Use pressurized clean water, with pressure not to exceed 140 psi. Nozzle should be 6” and 80° to 90° from coil face. Failure to do so could result in coil damage.
Application Examples
The three procedures can be used to clean microchannel coils. They will fit with the application depending on the area. In some areas where the spring/summer has a large cottonwood bloom #3 might work fine if the unit is installed on an office building and no other environmental factors apply.
When a unit is installed where the sprinkler system has water being sprayed onto the condenser coil you might have better results using #2. Vinegar is slightly acidic and may help with the calcium build up from drying water. This also works well when grease is part of the inlet air to a condenser coil.
Generally the best and broadest based procedure is #1. The grease cutting effect of the Simple Green is good for restaurant applications.
Other Coil Cleaners
There are many cleaners on the market for condenser coils. Before using any cleaner that is not covered in this section you must get written approval from the AAON warranty and service department. Use of unapproved chemicals will void the warranty.
AAON testing has determined that unless a chemical has a neutral pH (6-8) it should not be used.
Beware of any product that claims to be a foaming cleaner. The foam that is generated is caused by a chemical reaction to the aluminum fin material on tube and fin coils and with the fin, tube, and coating material on microchannel coils.
Microchannel coils are robust in many ways, but like any component they must be treated correctly. This includes cleaning the coils correctly to give optimal performance over many years.
Roofing
The cleaning procedures outlined here use relatively benign ingredients. When working with a rooftop unit care should be taken to make sure the chemicals will not adversely affect the roof coating. Checking with the roofing supplier/manufacturer is the best way to proceed. If the roofing supplier/manufacturer is not available testing of the chemicals on the roof coating is recommended.
Commercial roofing material manufacturers using PVC and EPDM have been contacted and indicate that there should be no problem with any of the procedures outlined above.

Electric shock hazard. Shut off all electrical power to the unit to avoid shock hazard or injury from rotating parts.
Blower wheels and bands must be inspected for excessive dust build up periodically and cleaned if required. Excessive dust build up on blower wheels may cause an unbalanced state; leading to vibration and/or component failure. Damages due to excessive dust build up will not be covered under factory warranty.
Lubrication
All original fan motors and bearings are furnished with factory lubrication. Some applications will require that bearings be re­lubricated periodically. The schedule will depend on the operating duty, temperature variations or other severe atmospheric conditions.
Bearings should be re-lubricated when at normal operating temperatures, but not running. Rotate the fan shaft by hand and add only enough grease to purge the seals. DO NOT OVERLUBRICATE.

Phase and Brownout Protection Module
The DPM is a Digital Phase Monitor that monitors line voltages from 200VAC to 240VAC 1ɸ and 200VAC to 600VAC 3ɸ. The DPM is 50/60 Hz self-sensing. DPM should be wired according to unit specific wiring diagram include in the control compartment
When the DPM is connected to the line voltage, it will monitor the line and if everything is within the setup parameters, the output contacts will be activated. If the line voltages fall outside the setup parameters, the output relay will be de­energized after the trip delay.
Once the line voltages recover, the DPM will re-energize the output relay after the restart time delay. All settings and the last 4 faults are retained, even if there is a complete loss of power.
DPM Setup Procedure With the supply voltage active to the module, you can setup all of the DPM’s settings without the line voltage connected.
To change the setpoint parameters use the right arrow key to advance forward through the setpoint parameters and the left arrow to backup if needed. When each parameter is displayed use the up/down keys to change and set the parameter.
After adjustments are made or if no adjustments are made it will take 2 to 4 minutes before the DPM energizes the output relay unless there is an out of tolerance issue with the incoming line voltage.
