GENERAL INFORMATION

Free Cooling Unit System

This Bard Free Cooling Unit system is composed of FUSION-TEC wall-mounted air conditioners matched with an
LV1000 first on/next on controller. The wall mounts are specifically engineered for telecom/motor control center
rooms.

NOTE: The LV1000 controller and FUSION-TEC wall-mount units are designed specifically to work together. The

LV1000 controller cannot run other Bard models or other brands of systems, nor can other controllers run
the FUSION-TEC wall-mount units. They are a complete system, and must be used together.

Up to two additional remote temperature/humidity sensors can be purchased and installed. Temperature-only
sensors (Bard P/N 8301-058) may be used instead of the additional temperature/humidity sensors, but will
also need to be purchased separately.

The equipment covered in this manual is to be installed
by trained, experienced service and installation
technicians.

These instructions should be carefully read before
beginning the installation. Note particularly any tags
and/or labels attached to the equipment.

While these instructions are intended as a general
recommended guide, they do not supersede any national
and/or local codes in any way. Authorities having
jurisdiction should be consulted before the installation is
made. See Additional Publications for information
on codes and standards.

Shipping Damage

Upon receipt of equipment, the cartons should be
checked for external signs of shipping damage. If

damage is found, the receiving party must contact
the last carrier immediately, preferably in writing,
requesting inspection by the carrier’s agent.

Additional Publications

These publications can help when installing the
furnace. They can usually be found at the local library
or purchased directly from the publisher. Be sure to
consult the current edition of each standard.

ANSI Z535.5 Definitions:

DANGER: Indicate[s] a hazardous situation which, if

not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. The
signal word “DANGER” is to be limited to the most
extreme situations. DANGER [signs] should not be used
for property damage hazards unless personal injury risk
appropriate to these levels is also involved.

WARNING: Indicate[s] a hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING [signs] should not be used for property
damage hazards unless personal injury risk appropriate
to this level is also involved.

CAUTION: Indicate[s] a hazardous situation which, if
not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
CAUTION [signs] without a safety alert symbol may be
used to alert against unsafe practices that can result in
property damage only.

NOTICE: [this header is] preferred to address practices
not related to personal injury. The safety alert symbol
shall not be used with this signal word. As an
alternative to “NOTICE” the word “CAUTION” without

• Miscellaneous hand and power tools and jobsite or
shop materials

• Electrical supplies:

- Circuit breaker for the shelter AC breaker

box (see unit electrical specifications for
requirements)

- 16 gauge minimum, 14 gauge maximum

power wire to connect controller to shelter
power source

- Communication wire: 2-wire, 18 gauge,

shielded with drain

- 5-wire, 18 gauge shielded cable with drain for

remote temperature and humidity sensors

- 18 gauge non-shielded wire for connecting

smoke detector, hydrogen detector and/or
generator, if applicable, to controller

-

- Miscellaneous electrical supplies including

- Fasteners appropriate for the shelter wall

CAT 6 Ethernet cable of field-determined length
(for remote communication, if applicable)

rigid/flexible conduit and fittings, 2" x 4"
junction boxes (one per temperature/humidity
sensor), wire connectors and supports

construction to attach the controller to the wall

The following is required and must be sourced prior
to installation of these units.

• One (1) 5A circuit breaker for the shelter DC
power plant (for the controller)

Circuit breakers for Emerson Network Power (ENP)
power plants (used in most telecomm shelters built
today) are available directly through the following
distributors:

• Emerson Network Power: 440.288.1122

• Master Electronics: 888.473.5297 or

www.onlinecomponents.com

Emerson Network Power (ENP) Part Number

WARNING

Electrical shock hazard.

Disconnect VAC and VDC power supplies
before servicing.

Failure to do so could result in electric shock
or death.

LV1000 Controller

The LV1000 controller is part of the Free Cooling
Unit system by Bard. It is used to control up to four
(4) wall-mount air conditioners from one controller.
The microprocessor control provides an easy-to-read
interface with large LCD graphical display. It provides
control for redundancy for the structure and equal wear
on all units. The LV1000 controller is configured for
first on/next on sequence.

Conduit is recommended for all wiring. Route
communication wiring and power supply wiring in their
own separate conduits.

The LV1000 controller is not weatherproof and is
intended for use in weathertight structure.

1. Mounting the LV1000 Controller

Because the LV1000 controller utilizes a remote
temperature sensor as opposed to one located in the
controller box, the controller itself can be installed in
any indoor location that is suitable, preferably at eye
level. Four (4) mounting holes are provided for mounting
to the wall and holes for conduit connection are provided
in both the base, sides and top of the controller.

The LV1000 controller includes a fused power supply
terminal in the terminal block. Before connecting wires
to the terminal block, confirm that the fuse in the fuse
holder is in the proper position (active) as shown in
Figure 1.2.

2. Installing Remote Indoor Temperature/Humidity Sensor(s)

One remote indoor temperature/humidity sensor and 35' of 18 gauge shielded cable is included with the controller.
This sensor must be installed for proper operation. Mount the temperature/humidity sensor in a location least likely to
be affected by open doors, rack-mounted fans, radiant heat sources, etc. Location height should be approximately 60"
above the floor. The sensor should be installed on a 2" x 4" junction box to allow for control wire conduit (see Figure

1.3). Use shielded cable to connect to controller.

2. Connect the other end of the shielded cable to the sensor
terminals. Be sure wires are connected to proper terminals
as shown in table above. Sensor jumpers need to be
positioned for 0-1 V. With sensor oriented as shown in
image to right, move both jumpers to left position (DP1 and
DP2 set to OFF).

This applies to all temperature/humidity sensors connected

to the LV controller.

Sensor is best mounted on a junction box, and it is

recommended that the cable be in conduit.

For proper operation, the remote indoor temperature/humidity sensor must be configured properly with the
controller. If only the single remote indoor temperature/humidity sensor supplied with the controller is installed,
the configuration setting is "0". This is the default setting. Up to two additional temperature and humidity sensors
can be purchased and installed. Alternately, temperature-only sensors can be purchased and installed instead of
the combination sensors. For information on remote indoor sensor configuration, see page 21.

Use shielded cable to

connect additional sensors to controller.

FIGURE 1.4

Additional Remote Temperature and Temperature/Humidity Sensor Installation

Up to two additional temperature/humidity sensors may be added. Be sure the sensors are connected to the proper
terminals on the terminal block and sensor as listed below. See page 9 for information on correct sensor jumper

position.
