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.
A copy of this IOM should be kept
with the unit.
WARNING
The Clean Air Act of 1990 bans the
intentional venting of refrigerant as of
July 1, 1992. Approved methods of
recovery, recycling, or reclaiming
must be followed.
CAUTION
Coils and sheet metal surfaces
present sharp edges and care must
be taken when working with
equipment.
WARNING
Failure to observe the following
instructions will result in premature
failure of your system and possible
voiding of the warranty.
WARNING
General Information
SA Series self contained units and indoor air
handling units have been designed for
indoor installation only. SA Series units can
contain spring isolated direct drive
backward curved plenum fans, shell and
tube or brazed plate water-cooled
condensers, R-410A scroll compressors,
evaporator coils, chilled water cooling coils,
steam or hot water heating coils, waterside
economizers, and a single point power
connection. Units are assembled, wired,
charged and run-tested at the factory. SA
Series units are not intended for residential
use.
Codes and Ordinances
SA Series units have been tested and
certified, by ETL, in accordance with UL
Safety Standard 1995/CSA C22.2 No. 236.
System should be sized in accordance with
the American Society of Heating,
Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
Engineers Handbook.
Installation of units must conform to the
ICC standards of the International
Mechanical Code, the International Building
Code, Installation of Air Conditioning and
Ventilating Systems Standard, NFPA 90A,
and local building, plumbing and waste
water codes. All appliances must be
16
electrically grounded in accordance with
local codes, or in the absence of local codes,
the current National Electric Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70 or the current Canadian
Electrical Code CSA C22.1.
Receiving Unit
When received, the unit should be checked
for damage that might have occurred in
transit. If damage is found it should be noted
on the carrier’s Freight Bill. A request for
inspection by carrier’s agent should be made
in writing at once.
Nameplate should be checked to ensure the
correct model sizes and voltages have been
received to match the job requirements.
CRANKCASE HEATER
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.
CAUTION
COMPRESSOR CYCLING
5 MINUTE MINIMUM OFF TIME
To prevent motor overheating
compressors must cycle off for a
minimum of 5 minutes.
5 MINUTE MINIMUM ON TIME
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.
WARNING
Storage
If installation will not occur immediately
following delivery, store equipment in a dry
protected area away from construction
traffic and in the proper orientation as
marked on the packaging with all internal
packaging in place. Secure all loose-shipped
items.
Direct Expansion (DX) Systems
All water-cooled condenser DX systems are
factory assembled, leak tested, charged with
R-410A refrigerant, and run tested.
All DX systems include evaporator coils,
liquid line filter dryers, thermostatic
expansion valves (TXV), and scroll
compressors. Compressors are equipped
with a positive pressure forced lubrication
system.
Never turn 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
may 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 emergency or complete
shutdown of the unit.
During the cooling season, if the airflow 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

Unit should not be operated without a
p-trap. Failure to install a p-trap may
result in overflow of condensate
water.
CAUTION
concentration builds up, oil is washed out of
the compressor, leaving it starved for
lubrication.
The compressor life will be seriously
shortened by reduced lubrication and the
pumping of excessive amounts of liquid oil
and refrigerant.
Wiring Diagrams
Unit specific wiring diagrams are laminated
and affixed inside the controls compartment
door.
Condensate Drain Pans
Units require drain p-traps and lines to be
connected to the condensate drain pans of
the unit. The lines should be the same pipe
size or larger than the drain connection,
include a p-trap, and pitch downward toward
drain. An air break should be used with long
runs of condensate lines.
Table 1 - SA Series Models
Waterside economizer coil units include a
separate condensate drain pan which drains
into the evaporator coil drain pan. No
additional drain line is needed for the
waterside economizer drain pan.
Unit Size
Units are modular and composed of
combination of the four standard unit sizes,
SA-023, SA-028, SA-030, and SA-035.
Installation
Locating the Unit
Placement of the unit relative to ductwork,
electrical and plumbing must be carefully
considered. Return air plenum or duct can be
mounted directly to the return air flanges.
Use flexible gasket material to seal the duct
to the unit.

Verify floor or foundation can support the
total unit weight, including accessory
weights. Unit must be level in both
horizontal axes to support the unit and
reduce noise and vibration from the unit.
Allow adequate service clearances as shown
on the unit nameplate and unit drawing.
UNIT HANDLING
Incorrect lifting can cause damage to
the unit, injury or death. Lifting
equipment capacity should exceed
unit weight by an adequate safety
factor. Always test lift unit not more
than 24 inches high to verify proper
center of gravity lift point.
WARNING
Consult your local building codes for
additional service clearance requirements.
Allow adequate space for piping access and
panel removal. Condenser water piping and
condensate drain connections are near the
bottom on the back of the unit.

Lifting and Handling the Unit
Before lifting unit, be sure that all shipping
material has been removed from unit.
If cables or chains are used to hoist the unit
care should be taken to prevent damage to
the cabinet.
Secure hooks and cables at the all lift points
provided near the fan section at the top of
the unit.
