1 Maximum size of the time delay fuse or HACR type circuit breaker for protection of field wiring conductors. 2 Based on 75°C copper wire. All wiring must conform to the National Electrical Code and all local codes. 3 These “Minimum Circuit Ampacity” values are to be used for sizing the field power conductors. Refer to the National Electric
Code (latest revision), article 310 for power conductor sizing. CAUTION: When more than one field power conductor circuit is run through one conduit, the conductors must be derated.
Pay special attention to Note 8 of Table 310 regarding Ampacity Adjustment Factors when more than three conductors are in a raceway.

SHIPPING DAMAGE
Upon receipt of equipment, the carton should be checked for external signs of shipping damage. The skid must remain attached to the unit until the unit is ready for installation. If damage is found, the receiving party must contact the last carrier immediately, preferably in writing, requesting inspection by the carrier’s agent.
UNIT REMOVAL FROM SKID
WARNING
This unit is heavy and requires more than one person to handle and remove from the skid. Check unit wheels to ensure that wheels are locked before removing from skid. Extreme caution must be taken to prevent injury to personnel and damage to the unit.
It is recommended that the unit not be removed from the skid with a forklift since the air seal under the unit could be damaged. See Figure 2.
The shipping brackets on each side of the unit must be removed and discarded. See Figure 3-A. The return air grille panel can be removed to provide a place to hold

the unit. The unit can be slid forward on the skid until the front wheels hang over the edge of the skid. See Figure 3-B. The unit can be tipped forward and slid down the edge of the skid until the front wheels touch the ground. See Figure 3-C. The wheels will not roll. They are shipped from the factory locked so they will not roll. The back of the skid will have to be held down to keep it from tipping up. The skid can be slid out from under the unit. The unit can then be set upright.

HANDLING UNIT AFTER REMOVAL FROM SKID
WARNING
Exercise extreme caution when pushing the unit on the rollers. Handle and push from the lower 1/3 of the unit. Insure that debris is not on the floor where the unit is to be moved on the rollers. Failure to do so could result in the unit tipping over and causing bodily injury and/ or damage to the unit.
The unit will have to be turned sideways and removed from the skid to fit through a 36" doorway. If the door height allows, the unit can be slid sideways through the door.
If the unit can not be slid through the door, then the unit will have to be put on a cart and tipped down to roll through the door. It is recommended that an appliance cart by used with a strap to hold the unit on the cart. The wheels of the unit must be locked. If the wheels were allowed to roll, the unit could roll off the cart. The unit should always be carted from the left side. This is the side where the compressor is located. See Figure 4.
The blade of the appliance cart should be slid under the wheels of the unit. The strap of the appliance cart should be placed around the unit and strapped tightly. Help will be required to tip the unit back onto the cart. The unit can be leaned far enough back to be rolled through the door. Be careful when setting the unit back up to keep from damaging the unit.
GENERAL
The equipment covered in this manual is to be installed by trained, experienced service and installation technicians. A QWS-Series wall sleeve supplied as a separate accessory must be ordered and installed with Q-Tec unit.
The unit is designed for use with or without duct work. For use without duct work, Plenum Box QPB42 is recommended.
These instructions explain the recommended method to install the air cooled self-contained unit and the electrical wiring connections to the unit.
These instructions and any instructions packaged with any separate equipment required to make up the entire air conditioning system should be carefully read before beginning the installation. Note particularly “Start Procedure” and any tags and/or labels attached to the equipment.

STRAP
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 Page 3 for information on codes and standards.
Size of unit for a proposed installation should be based on heat loss calculation made according to methods of Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA). The air duct should be installed in accordance with the Standards of the National Fire Protection Systems of Other Than Residence Type, NFPA No. 90A, and Residence Type Warm Air Heating and Air Conditioning Systems, NFPA No. 90B. Where local regulations are at a variance with instructions, installer should adhere to local codes.
MINIMUM INSTALLATION HEIGHT
The minimum installation height of the unit with a Free Blow Plenum is 8 ft. 6 in. This provides enough clearance for the plenum to be removed. See Figure 5.
The minimum installation height for ducted applications is 8 ft. 4½ in. This provides enough clearance to install the duct work. See Figure 6.

DUCT WORK
All duct work must be properly sized for the design airflow requirement of the equipment. Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA) is an excellent guide to proper sizing. All duct work or portions thereof not in the conditioned space should be properly insulated in order to both conserve energy and prevent condensation or moisture damage. When duct runs through unheated spaces, it should be insulated with a minimum of one inch of insulation. Use insulation with a vapor barrier on the outside of the insulation. Flexible joints should be used to connect the duct work to the equipment in order to keep the noise transmission to a minimum.
The Q-TEC series unit has provision to attach a supply air duct to the top of the unit. Duct connection size is 12 inches x 20 inches. The duct work is field supplied and must be attached in a manner to allow for ease of removal when it becomes necessary to slide the unit out from the wall for service. See Figure 7 for suggested attachment method.
The Q-T return (non-ducted) and either free blow with the use of QPB Plenum Box or a duct supply air system.
The QPB and QPBHW Plenum Box mounts on top of the unit and has both vertically and horizontally adjustable louvers on the front discharge grille.
For hot water coil option a QPBHWxx-F for free blow or QPBHWxx-D for ducted airflow is used.

When used with a ducted supply, a QCX Cabinet Extension can be used to conceal the duct work above the unit to the ceiling. This extends 20" above the unit for a total height above the floor of 10'-7/8". The unit is equipped with a variable speed indoor blower motor which increases in speed with an increase in duct static pressure. The unit will therefore deliver proper rated airflow up to the maximum ESP shown in Table 7. However, for quiet operation of the air system, the duct static should be kept as low as practical, within the guidelines of good duct design.
FILTERS
Two 1-inch throw away filters [(1) 16x16 and (1) 16x20] are supplied with each unit. The filters slide into filter brackets. Refer to Figure 8.
The filters are serviced from the inside of the building by opening the hinged door. This door is attached by a screw and one locking latch.
The internal filter brackets are adjustable to accommodate 2-inch filters. The tabs for the 1-inch filters must be bent down to allow the 2-inch filters to slide in place.

FRESH AIR INTAKE
This unit is equipped with a fresh air damper assembly. The damper blade is locked in the closed position when the unit is shipped from the factory. To allow the damper to operate remove the two plastic locking pins, one on each end of the blade. This will allow for maximum fresh airflow. The damper blade will now open when the indoor blower is operating. If less than maximum fresh airflow is required, reinsert the plastic pins to limit damper blade opening to desired level. Two extra pins are provided (taped to the inside of the assembly) which may be used to hold the blade in some position other than minimum or maximum position. This fresh air assembly is located in the rear of the unit and to gain access to make these adjustments remove the air filter service door.
All capacity, efficiency and cost of operation information as required for Department of Energy “Energyguide” Fact Sheets are based upon the fresh air blank-off plate in place and is recommended for maximum energy efficiency.
The blank-off plate is available upon request from the factory and is installed in place of the fresh air damper shipped with each unit.
For details on energy recovery ventilation see separate section.
SERVICE LIGHT
The unit is equipped with a service light, which signals the user that service is required. The light is located in the upper control panel and is visible only when the hinged service/filter access door is open.
The Service Unit light indicates that the unit has been shut off by a high or low pressure device. This indicates that the unit needs to be serviced.
CONDENSATE DRAIN
There are two drain connections on the unit. The rear drain is the primary drain, and is located on the right lower rear panel of the unit. The optional side drain is located on the bottom right side of the unit. The side drain is shipped with a plug installed.
The side drain requires a water trap for proper drainage. See Figure 9. The drain can be routed through the floor or through the wall. If the drain is to be routed through
an unconditioned space, it must be protected from freezing. The drain line must be able to be removed
from the unit if it is necessary to remove the unit from the wall. When the side drain is used, the plug must be removed and installed in the rear drain outlet.
The rear drain can be used with wall thickness of up to 10 inches where a water trap can be installed between the unit and the interior wall. See Figure 10. The trap cannot extend beyond the edge of the unit or it will interfere with the wall mounting bracket. The drain can be routed through the floor or through the wall. If the drain is routed through the wall, the drain line must be positioned such that it will not interfere with the sleeve flange or the grille. See Figure 11. If the drain is to be
routed through an unconditioned space, it must be protected from freezing.
OPTIONAL REAR DRAIN KITS
Optional Rear Drain Kit, Bard Model QCDS48A, is also available for these products. The optional rear drain kit offers multiple benefits that include the following:
• Allows unit to be rolled away from the sleeve without having to disconnect any hard plumbing connections.
• Allows indoor coil condensate to be easily connected to Rear Drain Box while bypassing the outdoor coil drain pan. This aids in minimizing the potential for biological growth to occur by minimizing the standing water and exposing it to warm temperatures.
See Figures 12A, 12B, 12C and 12D.
The drain box permanently mounts onto the wall sleeve and is then either piped directly outdoors, or can be piped vertically. The Q-Tec unit is then equipped with fittings on the rear of the unit that slide into the drain box as it is wheeled towards the wall sleeve.
NOTE: On models equipped with a refrigerant subcooler in the lower drain pan may experience a 2­3% decrease in cooling performance and efficiency when the indoor condensate is routed around the outdoor coil drain pan/subcooler assembly. Unit rated performance and efficiency are with the indoor condensate routed to the outdoor coil pan.
There is also a heated version of the rear drain box available (Model #QCDS48H) for installation in northern climates where freezing may occur.
SEPARATE EVAPORATOR DRAIN CONNECTION (OPTIONAL)
A knockout is provided in the back right corner of the units for use when draining the evaporator drain pan separately from the condenser. This knockout is 5 inches above the back condenser drain opening. To utilize a separate evaporator drain connection remove the knockout and route the existing evaporator drain hose out this knockout and then to an appropriate drain line.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
MOUNTING THE UNIT
When installing a Q-TEC unit near an interior wall on the left side, a minimum of 8 inches is required; 12 inches is preferred.
When installing a Q-TEC unit near an interior wall on the right side, a minimum of 18 inches is required as additional space is required to connect the side drain. If the rear condensate drain kit QCDS48 is used the minimum can be reduced to 8 inches.
This clearance is required to allow for the attachment of the unit to the sleeve and side trim pieces to the wall.
This unit is to be secured to the wall sleeve with mounting brackets provided. The unit itself, the supply duct and the free blow plenum are suitable of “0” clearance to combustible material.
Following are the steps for mounting the Q-T reference see Figure 13A for external mounting bracket or 13B for internal bolt secured bracket (recommended).
1. Attach mounting brackets to the wall sleeve with screws provided. Either use external mounting bracket (Fig. 13A) or internal bolt bracket (Fig. 13B).
2. Position the unit in front of the sleeve with the condenser section toward the sleeve.
3. Remove the locking screws from the wheels. Refer to Figure 14.
4. Roll the unit into the sleeve. Make sure to check both sides of the unit as it is being rolled to keep it centered in the sleeve. Also check the
EC
. For
alignment to the mounting brackets. This unit must be level from side to side. If adjustments are necessary, shim up under the rollers with sheets of steel or any substance that is not affected by moisture.
5. Make sure the gasket on the rear of the unit is touching the sleeve across the top and down both sides. This is a rain water seal.
6. Secure the mounting brackets to the unit with screws provided, #10 hex head sheet metal screws (Figure 13A) or use nut and washer to secure sleeve (Figure 13B).
7. Bottom trim extensions are provided for use when wall is less than 14 inches but greater than 10.5 inches. Secure to wall with screws (not provided).
8. Attach the bottom trim piece to the unit with the screws provided (dark colored).
9. Position side trim pieces to wall and attach with field supplied screws. There are two long pieces and two short pieces supplied. The long pieces are to enclose the gap behind the unit. The short pieces are to fill the gap behind the cabinet extension or the free blow plenum box. They may be cut to suit your ceiling height or overlap the unit side trim. There is sufficient length to trim up to a 10'2" ceiling.

WIRING – MAIN POWER
Refer to the unit rating plate and/or Table 2 for wire sizing information and maximum fuse or “HACR Type” circuit breaker size. Each unit is marked with a “Minimum Circuit Ampacity”. This means that the field wiring used must be sized to carry that amount of current. Depending on the installed KW of electric heat, there may be two field power circuits required. If this is the case, the unit serial plate will so indicate. All models are suitable only for connection with copper wire. Each unit and/or wiring diagram will be marked “Use Copper Conductors Only”. These instructions MUST BE adhered to. Refer to the National Electrical Code (NEC) for complete current carrying capacity data on the various insulation grades of wiring material. All wiring must conform to NEC and all local codes.
The electrical data lists fuse and wire sizes (75°C copper) for all models, including the most commonly used heater sizes. Also shown are the number of field power circuits required for the various models with heaters.
The unit rating plate lists a “Maximum Time Delay Relay Fuse” or “HACR Type” circuit breaker that is to be used with the equipment. The correct size must be used for proper circuit protection, and also to assure that there will be no nuisance tripping due to the momentary high starting current of the compressor motor.
The disconnect access door on this unit may be locked to prevent unauthorized access to the disconnect.
See “Start Up” section for information on three phase scroll compressor start-ups.
The field wiring connections are located behind the top and hinged panel in the circuit breaker panel. See Figure 15.

START UP
THESE UNITS REQUIRE R-410A REFRIGERANT AND POLYOL ESTER OIL.
GENERAL:
1. Use separate service equipment to avoid cross contamination of oil and refrigerants.
2. Use recovery equipment rated for R-410A refrigerant.
3. Use manifold gauges rated for R-410A (800 psi/250 psi low).
4. R-410A is a binary blend of HFC-32 and HFC-125.
5. R-410A is nearly azeotropic - similar to R-22 and R-12. Although nearly azeotropic, charge with liquid refrigerant.
6. R-410A operates at 40-70% higher pressure than R-22, and systems designed for R-22 cannot withstand this higher pressure.
7. R-410A has an ozone depletion potential of zero, but must be reclaimed due to its global warming potential.
8. R-410A compressors use Polyol Ester oil.
9. Polyol Ester oil is hygroscopic; it will rapidly absorb moisture and strongly hold this moisture in the oil.
10. A liquid line dryer must be used - even a deep vacuum will not separate moisture from the oil.
11. Limit atmospheric exposure to 15 minutes.
12. If compressor removal is necessary, always plug compressor immediately after removal. Purge with small amount of nitrogen when inserting plugs.
TOPPING OFF SYSTEM CHARGE
If a leak has occurred in the system, Bard Manufacturing recommends reclaiming, evacuating (see criteria above), and charging to the nameplate charge. If done correctly, topping off the system charge can be done without problems.
With R-410A, there are no significant changes in the refrigerant composition during multiple leaks and recharges. R-410A refrigerant is close to being an azeotropic blend (it behaves like a pure compound or single component refrigerant). The remaining refrigerant charge, in the system, may be used after leaks have occurred and then “top-off” the charge by utilizing the pressure charts on the inner control panel cover as a guideline.
REMEMBER: When adding R-410A refrigerant, it must come out of the charging cylinder/tank as a liquid to avoid any fractionation, and to insure optimal system performance. Refer to instructions for the cylinder that is being utilized for proper method of liquid extraction.
WARNING
Failure to conform to these practices could lead to damage, injury or death.
SAFETY PRACTICES:
1. Never mix R-410A with other refrigerants.
2. Use gloves and safety glasses. Polyol Ester oils can be irritating to the skin, and liquid refrigerant will freeze the skin.
3. Never use air and R-410A to leak check; the mixture may become flammable.
4. Do not inhale R-410A – the vapor attacks the nervous system, creating dizziness, loss of coordination and slurred speech. Cardiac irregularities, unconsciousness and ultimate death can result from breathing this concentration.
5. Do not burn R-410A. This decomposition produces hazardous vapors. Evacuate the area if exposed.
6. Use only cylinders rated DOT4BA/4BW 400.
7. Never fill cylinders over 80% of total capacity.
8. Store cylinders in a cool area, out of direct sunlight.
9. Never heat cylinders above 125°F.
10. Never trap liquid R-410A in manifold sets, gauge lines or cylinders. R-410A expands significantly at warmer temperatures. Once a cylinder or line is full of liquid, any further rise in temperature will cause it to burst.

DESCRIPTION OF STANDARD EQUIPMENT
High Pressure Switch
Provides refrigerant circuit high pressure protection. Includes lockout circuit that is resettable from room thermostat.
Compressor Control Module
Provides short cycle protection for the compressor which extends compressor life, as well as high and low pressure switch monitoring and alarm functions.
Service Lights
One service light indicates when service is required.
• Check System – detects high or low pressure switch operation for compressor protection.
OPTIONAL CFM (Q36A1, Q42A1, Q48A1 AND Q60A1 ONLY)
These units are shipped from the factory set to operate at the optional CFM level shown in Table 7. This provides lower operating sound levels for non-ducted, free discharge applications. This CFM level will reduce the system capacity performance by approximately 2% at the same energy efficiency.
Rated CFM is required for ducted applications for maximum performance rating. To obtain full CFM on these models, connect jumper wire as follows:
1. Disconnect all power to the unit. Failure to do so may result in damage to the motor.
2. Open return air service panel
3. Open inner control panel cover
4. Locate low voltage terminal strip. There is a pink jumper wire with both ends attached to terminal marked “G2”. Move one end of this jumper to terminal “Y”.
5. Reverse steps to reassemble.
IMPORTANT INSTALLER NOTE
For improved start-up performance, wash the indoor coil with a dishwasher detergent.
CAUTION
Do not plug in or unplug blower motor
connectors while the power is on.
Failure to do so may result in motor failure.
PHASE MONITOR
All units with three phase scroll compressors are equipped with a 3 phase line monitor to prevent compressor damage due to phase reversal.
The phase monitor in this unit is equipped with two LEDs. If the Y signal is present at the phase monitor and phases are correct the green LED will light and the compressor contactor is allowed to energize.
If phases are reversed, the red fault LED will be lit and compressor operation is inhibited.
If a fault condition occurs, reverse two of the supply leads to the unit. Do not reverse any of the unit factory wires as damage may occur.
THREE PHASE SCROLL COMPRESSOR START UP INFORMATION
Scroll compressors, like several other types of compressors, will only compress in one rotational direction. Direction of rotation is not an issue with single phase compressors since they will always start and run in the proper direction.
However, three phase compressors will rotate in either direction depending upon phasing of the power. Since there is a 50-50 chance of connecting power in such a way as to cause rotation in the reverse direction,
verification of proper rotation must be made.
Verification of proper rotation direction is made by observing that suction pressure drops and discharge pressure rises when the compressor is energized. Reverse rotation also results in an elevated sound level over that with correct rotation, as well as, substantially reduced current draw compared to tabulated values.
Verification of proper rotation must be made at the time the equipment is put into service. If improper rotation is corrected at this time there will be no negative impact on the durability of the compressor. However, reverse operation for even one hour may have a negative impact on the bearing due to oil pump out.
Manual 2100-522B Page 28 of 38
All three phase scroll compressors used in the Q-T
EC
series are wired identically internally. As a result, once the correct phasing is determined for a specific system or installation, connecting properly phased power leads to the same Fusite terminal should maintain proper rotation direction. The direction of rotation of the motor may be changed by reversing any two line connections to the unit.
COMPRESSOR CONTROL MODULE
The compressor control module is standard on all models covered by this manual. The compressor control is an anti-short cycle/lockout timer with high and low pressure switch monitoring and alarm relay output.
Adjustable Delay On Make And Break Timer
On initial power up or any time power is interrupted to the unit, the delay on make period begins, which will be 2 minutes plus 10% of the delay on break setting. When the delay on make is complete and the high pressure switch (and low pressure switch if employed) is closed, the compressor contactor is energized.
Upon shutdown the delay or break timer starts and prevents restart until the delay on break and delay on make periods have expired.
During routine operation of the unit with no power interruptions the compressor will operate on demand with no delay.
High Pressure Switch and Lockout Sequence
If the high pressure switch opens, the compressor contactor will de-energize immediately. The lockout timer will go into a soft lockout and stay in soft lockout until the high pressure switch closes break time has expired. If the high pressure switch opens again in this same operating cycle the unit will go into manual lockout condition and the alarm relay circuit will energize. Recycling the wall thermostat resets the manual lockout.
Low Pressure Switch, Bypass, and Lockout Sequence
If the low pressure switch opens for more than 120 seconds, the compressor contactor will de-energize and go into a soft lockout. Regardless the state of the low pressure switch, the contactor will reenergize after the delay on make time delay has expired. If the low pressure switch remains open, or opens again for longer than 120 seconds the unit will go into manual lockout condition and the alarm relay circuit will energize. Recycling the wall thermostat resets the manual lockout.
and the delay on
Alarm Relay Output
Alarm terminal is output connection for applications where alarm relay is employed. This terminal is powered whenever compressor is locked out due to HPC or LPC sequences as described.
NOTE: Both high and low pressure switch controls are
inherently automatic reset devices. The high pressure switch and low pressure switch cut out and cut in settings are fixed by specific air conditioner or heat pump unit model. The lockout features, both soft and manual, are a function of the Compressor Control Module.
ADJUSTMENTS
Adjustable Delay on Make and Delay on Break Timer
The potentiometer is used to select Delay on Break time from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. Delay on Make (DOM) timing on power-up and after power interruptions is equal to 2 minutes plus 10% of Delay on Break (DOB) setting:
0.5 minute (30 seconds) DOB = 123 second DOM
1.0 minute (60 seconds) DOB = 126 second DOM
2.0 minute (120 seconds) DOB = 132 second DOM
3.0 minute (180 seconds) DOB = 138 second DOM
4.0 minute (240 seconds) DOB = 144 second DOM
5.0 minute (300 seconds) DOB = 150 second DOM
During routine operation of the unit with no power interruptions the compressor will operate on demand with no delay.
Typical Settings for Dual Unit Installation:
Unit 1: DOB set at 2 minutes, and DOM is 132 seconds
Unit 2: DOB set at 4 minutes, and DOM is 144 seconds
SERVICE HINTS
1. Caution user to maintain clean air filters at all times. Also, not to needlessly close off supply air registers. This may reduce airflow through the system, which shortens equipment service life as well as increasing operating costs and noise levels.
2. Check all power fuses or circuit breakers to be sure they are the correct rating.
3. Periodic cleaning of the outdoor coil to permit full and unrestricted airflow circulation is essential.

6. Some service requires the need to remove the unit from the wall including replacement of the indoor coil and/or the outdoor coil. Also servicing the outdoor fan motor or fan blade will require removing the unit from the wall if the unit is installed at a height that is not easily accessible from the outside of the building.
In order to remove the unit from the wall the following procedure must be used:
a. Turn off power to the unit at the remote
location. Some units may have more than one power supply.
b. Disconnect field wiring at unit terminal block
and remove from unit.
c. Disconnect condensate drain.
d. Remove the lower skirting around the unit.
e. Remove wall mounting brackets from wall on
each side of the unit.
It is recommended that the mist eliminator be inspected annually and serviced as required. The mist eliminator can be inspected from the outside of the building by looking through the outdoor grille. The mist eliminator can be serviced from the outside by using a vacuum cleaner. The outdoor grille must be removed. Use the vacuum to remove dirt and debris from the surface of the mist eliminator. If additional cleaning is required, the mist eliminator will have to be removed from the sleeve.
The ventilation package will have to be removed to gain access tot he mist eliminator. If the blank off plate option is used, it is not necessary to service the mist eliminator. The steps necessary to remove each of the vent options are listed on the following pages.
The mist eliminator can be cleaned by washing with soap and water. The excess water should be shaken off the mist eliminator before it is reinstalled.
f. If unit is attached to duct work, remove upper
cabinet extension by removing the top center screw only from the cabinet side panel.
g. Remove screws that attach the duct work to
the unit flanges.
This unit is equipped with four rollers mounted to the base. For ease of pulling unit out from the wall, you may want to remove the bottom service door which requires removal of the return air panel, and grip the front flange of the base pan then pull straight out.
7. Annual maintenance is required to make sure that all of the systems are functioning properly.
a. Check to make sure that the drains are not
obstructed in any way.
b. Remove any debris in the condenser section of
the unit.
c. Inspect and clean mist eliminator as described
below.
d. Inspect and wash outdoor coil as necessary.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
Cooling – Circuit R-Y makes the thermostat pull in the compressor contactor starting the compressor and outdoor motor. The G (indoor motor) circuit is automatically completed on any call for cooling operation, or can be energized by manual fan switch on subbase for constant air circulation.
Heating – Circuit is completed for R-W1 on each heating “on” cycle, energizing the electric heat contactor. R-G also makes starting indoor blower motor.
Second stage heat – Energized circuit R-W2 and the electric heat contactor for the second bank of heaters (if equipped) is energized.
High / Low Pressure control provides protection for the compressor. In the advent system pressures go above 600 PSI or below 15 PSI in cooling mode the compressor will be stopped. This will activate the red light located in the control panel. The lockout circuit will hold compressor off line. When the system problem is corrected, the unit operation can be restored by turning of the main power supply off and then back on, or reset the room thermostat. The low pressure control has a bypass to eliminate nuisance lockout on cold start up. Factory set to 2 minutes.

OPTIONAL CLIMATE CONTROLS SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
The Climate Control Option A is an electronic, non­programmable manual or auto changeover thermostat. The thermostat may be manually set to heat or cool mode. The thermostat will maintain the temperature set on the thermostat in the mode in which it is set.
The Climate Control Option D is an electronic, programmable thermostat. The thermostat can be set in the heat, cool or automatic mode. When the thermostat is sent in the heat mode, it can heat only to maintain the temperature set on the thermostat. When the thermostat is set in the cool mode, it can cool only to maintain the temperature set on the thermostat. When the thermostat is set in the automatic mode, the thermostat can change automatically to the heat or cool modes to maintain the temperature set on the thermostat.
The Climate Control Option “H” is an electronic, programmable thermostat and a CO2 controller. The thermostat can be set in the heat, cool or automatic mode. When the thermostat is set in the heat mode, it can heat only to maintain the temperature set on the thermostat. When the thermostat is set in the cool mode, it can cool only to maintain the temperature set on the thermostat. When the thermostat is set in the automatic mode, the thermostat can change automatically to the heat or cool modes to maintain the temperature set on the thermostat.
The CO2 controller will energize the vent option and the ID blower when the room CO2 levels rise over set level. Default CO2 set point is 1000 ppm. See Figure 23.

TROUBLESHOOTING GE ECM
MOTORS CONT’D.
Replacing ECM Control Module
To replace the control module for the GE variable-speed indoor blower motor you need to take the following steps:
1. You MUST have the correct replacement module. The controls are factory programmed for specific operating modes. Even though they look alike, different modules may have completely different functionality.
USING THE WRONG CONTROL MODULE VOIDS ALL PRODUCT WARRANTIES AND MAY PRODUCE UNEXPECTED RESULTS.
2. Begin by removing AC power from the furnace or air handler being serviced. DO NOT WORK ON THE MOTOR WITH AC POWER APPLIED. To avoid electric shock from the motor’s capacitors, disconnect power and wait at least 5 minutes before opening motor.
3. It is usually not necessary to remove the motor from the blower assembly. However, it is recommended that the whole blower assembly, with the motor, be removed from the furnace/air handler. (Follow the manufacturer’s procedures). Unplug the two cable connectors to the motor. There are latches on each connector. DO NOT PULL ON THE WIRES. The plugs remove easily when properly released.
4. Locate the two standard ¼" hex head bolts at the rear of the control housing (at the back end of the control opposite the shaft end). Refer to Figure 24. Remove these two bolts from the motor and control assembly while holding the motor in a way that will prevent the motor or control from falling when the bolts are removed. If an ECM2.0 control is being replaced (recognized by an aluminum casting rather that a deep-drawn black steel can housing the electronics), remove only the hex-head bolts.
DO NOT REMOVE THE TORX-HEAD SCREWS.
5. The control module is now free of mechanical attachment to the motor endshield but is still connected by a plug and three wires inside the control. Carefully rotate the control to gain access to the plug at the control end of the wires. With thumb and forefinger, reach the latch holding the plug to the control and release it by squeezing the latch tab and the opposite side of the connector plug and gently pulling the plug out of the connector socket in the control. DO NOT PULL
ON THE WIRES. GRIP THE PLUG ONLY.
6. The control module is now completely detached from the motor. Verify with a standard ohmmeter that the resistance from each motor lead (in the motor plug just removed) to the motor shell is >100K ohms. Refer to Figure 25. (Measure to unpainted motor end plate.) If any motor lead fails this test, do not proceed to install the control module.
THE MOTOR IS DEFECTIVE AND MUST BE REPLACED.
Installing the new control module will cause it to fail also.
7. Verify that the replacement control is correct for your application. Refer to the manufacturer's authorized replacement list.
USING THE WRONG CONTROL WILL RESULT IN IMPROPER OR NO BLOWER OPERATION. Orient the control
module so that the 3-wire motor plug can be inserted into the socket in the control. Carefully insert the plug and press it into the socket until it latches. A SLIGHT CLICK WILL BE HEARD WHEN PROPERLY INSERTED. one of the three following paragraphs, 8a, 8b or 8c.
8a. IF REPLACING AN ECM 2.0 CONTROL (control in cast
aluminum can with air vents on the back of the can) WITH AN ECM
2.3 CONTROL (control containing black potting for water protection in black deep-drawn steel case with no vents in the bottom of the can), locate the two through-bolts and plastic tab that are packed with the replacement control. Insert the plastic tab into the slot at the perimeter of the open end of the can so that the pin is located on the inside of the perimeter of the can. Rotate the can so that the tab inserts into the tab locater hole in the endshield of the motor. Using the two through-bolts provided with the replacement control, reattach the can to the motor.
THE TWO THROUGH-BOLTS PROVIDED WITH THE REPLACEMENT ECM 2.3 CONTROL ARE SHORTER THAN THE BOLTS ORIGINALLY REMOVED FROM THE ECM 2.0 CONTROL AND MUST BE USED IF SECURE ATTACHMENT OF THE CONTROL TO THE MOTOR IS TO BE ACHIEVED.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE BOLTS.
Finish installing the replacement control per
8b. IF REPLACING AN ECM 2.3 CONTROL WITH AN ECM 2.3 CONTROL, the plastic tab and shorter through-bolts are not needed. The control can be oriented in two positions 180° apart. MAKE SURE THE
ORIENTATION YOU SELECT FOR REPLACING THE CONTROL ASSURES THE CONTROL'S CABLE CONNECTORS WILL BE LOCATED DOWNWARD IN THE APPLICATION SO THAT WATER CANNOT RUN DOWN THE CABLES AND INTO THE CONTROL. Simply orient the new control to the motor's endshield,
insert bolts, and tighten. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE BOLTS.
8c. IF REPLACING AN ECM 2.0 CONTROL WITH AN ECM 2.0
CONTROL (It is recommended that ECM 2.3 controls be used for all replacements), the new control must be attached to the motor using
through bolts identical to those removed with the original control. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE BOLTS.
9. Reinstall the blower/motor assembly into the HVAC equipment.
Follow the manufacturer's suggested procedures.
10. Plug the 16-pin control plug into the motor. The plug is keyed.
Make sure the connector is properly seated and latched.
11. Plug the 5-pin power connector into the motor. Even though the plug is keyed, OBSERVE THE PROPER ORIENTATION. DO NOT FORCE THE CONNECTOR. It plugs in very easily when properly oriented. REVERSING THIS PLUG WILL CAUSE IMMEDIATE
FAILURE OF THE CONTROL MODULE.
12.
Final installation check. Make sure the motor is installed as follows: a. Unit is as far INTO the blower housing as possible. b.Belly bands are not on the control module or covering vent holes. c. Motor connectors should be oriented between the 4 o’clock and 8
o’clock positions when the blower is positioned in its final location and orientation.
d.Add a drip loop to the cables so that water cannot enter the motor
by draining down the cables. Refer to Figure 26.
The installation is now complete. Reapply the AC power to the HVAC equipment and verify that the new motor control module is working properly. Follow the manufacturer's procedures for disposition of the old control module.
