BLOWER CONVERSION FROM UPFLOW TO COUNTERFLOW OR HORIZONTAL RIGHT DISCHARGE
Following the directions on Figure 3 for counterow and
horizontal right discharge, the indoor blower must be
removed and turned over in its mounting conguration.
Step 1 Remove both front service panels from the
GTB1-A.
Step 2 Remove two screws securing blower at top of GTB1-A (See Figure 3), and slide the blower forward and out of the chassis.
Step 3 Remove two screws from front ll plate on
bottom of GTB1-A, and slide both pieces of metal forward and out of chassis.
Step 4 Dip switch #4 on blower tap select control must be turned “on”. (Refer to Wiring Diagram 4117-100.)
Step 5 While turning on tap #4 above, adjust the other taps accordingly for the tonnage of unit being applied. (Refer to Wiring Diagram 4117-100.)
Step 6 Turn blower over and slide into rails of
bottom rear of the GTB1-A front ll plate
that was removed in Step 3 above.
Step 7 Remove bottom rear ll plate from bottom
front ll plate (discard rear), and resecure front ll plate into unit base and front of
blower.
Step 8 Replace GTB1-A front service doors after making line and control voltage wiring connections.
BLOWER LINE POWER CONNECTION
Power connections for the GTB1-A can be made two different ways.
The rst is in “stacked” congurations, the blower can
be plugged into an electrical connection from the bottom of the compressor (GTC**S2 Model Unit). This will
work for either upow or counterow applications. All
electrical sizing has been sized to accommodate this. The second is with “remote” blower (meaning separate
from the compressor section). Supplied in the GTB1-A is an adaptor wire harness. On the right-hand side of the GTB1-A chassis is a ½" electrical knockout. This harness can be installed through this knockout with the supplied
strain relief into a standard electrical junction box (eld
supplied). Electrical load sizing is included on the serial plate of the GTB1-A for the required separate branch circuit (See Figure 4).

APPLICA TION AND LOCA TION
GENERAL
The GT Series Geothermal Heat Pumps feature three sections (GTA - Air Coil Section, GTB - Blower Section and GTC -
Compressor Section) which cover upow (bottom, right/left­side return), counterow and horizontal (left and right-hand
discharge) applications. The individual sections are shipped internally wired, requiring
duct connections, thermostat wiring, 230/208 volt AC power wiring, refrigerant line connections and water piping. The equipment covered in this manual is to be installed by trained, experienced service and installation technicians.
For installations requiring the continued use of an
existing gas or oil red furnace, add-on cased “A” coils are available. Two 3-ton coils designed to t standard
“B” and “C” width furnaces and one 4/5 ton coil designed for a “C” cabinet are available. Refer to Page 4 of this manual for the model nomenclature and the
specication sheet for performance data.
For top discharge oil furnaces, the coil drain pan MUST be located a minimum of 6 inches above the top of the furnace cabinet. Two coil spacer accessories are
available to t Bard oil furnaces:
CSADP2220 22" x 20" x 6" All models except 140,000 Btu Low-Boy
CASDP2520 25" x 20" x 6" 140,000 Btu Low-Boy only
For all other brands, a coil support system must be eld
fabricated to maintain the 6" spacing.
These instructions and any instructions packaged with any separate equipment required to make up the entire heat pump system 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 in any way supersede any national and/or local codes. Authorities having jurisdiction should be consulted before the installation is made.
SHIPPING DAMAGE
Upon receipt of the equipment, the carton 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.
APPLICATION
Capacity of the unit for a proposed installation should be based on heat loss calculations made in accordance with methods of the Air Conditioning Contractors of America. The air duct system should be sized and installed in accordance with Standards of the National Fire Protection Association for the Installation of Air Conditioning and Venting systems of Other than Residence Type NFPA No. 90A, and residence Type Warm Air Heating and Air Conditioning Systems, NFPA No. 90B.
DUAL FUEL HEATING / COOLING
Dual fuel is the combination of a fossil fuel furnace, normally gas or oil, with a heat pump. In milder weather the heat pump uses the available outdoor warmth and will transport that heat into your house cheaper than burning gas or oil. When it gets very cold, around 35 degrees F., the heat pump automatically shuts down and the furnace heats the home. This combination gives you the maximum savings on both heating and cooling while providing you with ideal indoor comfort.
Dual fuel systems are becoming increasingly popular in lieu
of conventional high efciency furnaces with air conditioning
due to the energy savings and ease of installation. Today’s new hi-tech thermostats eliminate the need for complicated wiring and duel fuel control boards. Bard recommends using the Honeywell THX9321R5030 Prestige® Thermostat (Does not include outdoor sensor). Honeywell also offers the Prestige® Kit 2.0 which includes the THX9321R5030 Prestige® Thermostat, REM5000R1001 Portable Comfort Control and C7089R1013 Wireless Outdoor Sensor.
LOCATION
The unit may be installed in a basement, closet, or utility room provided adequate service access is ensured.
These units are not approved for outdoor installation and therefore must be installed inside the structure being conditioned. Do not locate in areas subject to freezing in the
winter or subject to sweating in the summer.
Before setting the unit, consider ease of piping, drain and electrical connections for the unit. Also, for units which will be used with a desuperheater unit, consider the proximity of the unit to the water heater or storage tank. Place the unit on a solid base, preferably concrete, to minimize undesirable noise and vibration. DO NOT elevate the base pan on rubber or cork vibration eliminator pads as this will permit the unit base to act like a drum, transmitting objectionable noise.
DUCTWORK
If the unit is to be installed in a closet or utility room which
does not have a oor drain, a secondary drain pan under the
entire unit is highly recommended. DO NOT install the unit in such a way that a direct path exists
between any return grille and the unit. Rather, insure that the air entering the return grille will make at least one turn before entering the unit or coil. This will reduce possible objectionable compressor and air noise from entering the occupied space.
Design the ductwork according to methods given by the Air Conditioning Contractors of America. When duct runs through unconditioned spaces, it should be insulated with
vapor barrier. It is recommended that exible connections be
used to connect the ductwork to the unit in order to keep the noise transmission to a minimum.
WARNING
In applying a duct heater, refer to duct heater installation instructions for minimum clearance to combustible materials, maximum allowed inlet air temperatures, and minimum air
volumerequirementsforKWusage.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
All wiring must be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes. In Canada, all wiring must be installed in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code and in accordance with the regulations of the authorities having jurisdiction. Power supply voltage must conform to the voltage shown on the unit serial plate. A wiring diagram of the unit is attached to the inside of the electrical cover. The power supply shall be sized and fused
according to the specications supplied. A ground lug is
supplied in the control compartment for equipment ground. The unit rating plate lists a “Maximum Time Delay 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.
CONTROL CIRCUIT WIRING
The minimum control circuit wiring gauge needed to insure proper operation of all controls in the unit will depend on two factors.
1. The rated VA of the control circuit transformer.
2. The maximum total distance of the control circuit wiring.

WALL THERMOSTAT SELECTION
The wall thermostat selection is important in that it needs to be minimally 2-stage heat and 2-stage cool for applications without electric heat.
For applications with electric heat, the thermostat will need to minimally be 3-stage heat and 2-stage cool. The second bank of electric heat (when equipped) should be wired through a secondary relay for operation only in Emergency Heat Mode, at which point compressor operation should be disabled.
Refer to Figure 6 on the following page for typcial thermostat connections.
Table 6 should be used to determine proper gauge of control circuit wiring required.
For low voltage connections, see Figure #6. There are multiple options based upon the type of installation in regards to low voltage electrical connections and what options are selected. These options include a motorized valve or motorized valve with end switch for ground water applications, and optional electric duct heater connections.
NOTE: Review the “lettered triangles” and the corresponding notes on the lower right-hand corner of Figure #6. When options are not used, the wires will need attached to the reference points accordingly.
Example: 1. Control Circuit transformer rated at 50 VA
2. Maximum total distance of control circuit wiring 85 feet.
From Table 7 minimum of 16 gauge wire should be used in the control circuit wiring.
Low Voltage Connection
These units use a grounded 24-volt AC low voltage circuit and require at least a 2-stage heating and a 2-stage cooling thermostat.
“R” terminal is 24 VAC hot. “C” terminal is 24 VAC grounded. “G” terminal is the fan input. “Y1” terminal is the compressor part load input. “Y2” terminal is the compressor full load input. “O” terminal is the reversing valve input. The reversing
valve must be energized for cooling mode. “L” terminal is the check light output/compressor lockout.
This terminal is activated on high pressure switch, low
pressure switch, condensate overow, or freeze stat trip.
This is a 24 VAC output. “W1” terminal is rst stage electric heat input. (If
equipped.) “E” terminal is the emergency heat input. This energizes
the emergency heat relay, and should be utilized to limit the amount of electric heat with the geothermal heat pump operational to limit outlet air temperature.
“W2” terminal is the second stage electric heat input. (If equipped.)

GROUND LOOP (EARTH COUPLED WATER LOOP APPLICATIONS)
NOTE:
Unit shipped from factory with 75 PSIG low pressure switch wired into control circuit and must be rewired to 55 PSIG low pressure switch for ground loop applications.
This unit is designed to work on earth coupled water loop systems, however, these systems operate at entering water (without antifreeze) temperature with pressures well below the pressures normally experienced in water well systems.
THE CIRCULATION SYSTEM DESIGN
Equipment room piping design is based on years of experience with earth coupled heat pump systems. The design eliminates most causes of system failure.
The heat pump itself is rarely the cause. Most problems occur because designers and installers forget that a ground loop “earth coupled” heat pump system is NOT like a household plumbing system.
FIGURE 7
CIRCULATION SYSTEM DESIGN
Most household water systems have more than enough water pressure either from the well pump of the municipal water system to overcome the pressure of head loss in 1/2 inch or 3/4 inch household plumbing. A closed loop earth coupled heat pump system, however, is separated from the pressure of the household supply and relies on a small, low wattage pump to circulate the water and antifreeze solution through the earth coupling, heat pump and equipment room components.
The small circulator keeps the operating costs of the system to a minimum. However, the performance of the circulator MUST be closely matched with the pressure of head loss
of the entire system in order to provide the required ow through the heat pump. Insufcient ow through the heat
exchanger is one of the most common causes of system failure. Proper system piping design and circulator selection will eliminate this problem.
Manual 2100-537I Page 24 of 54
START UP PROCEDURE FOR GROUND LOOP SYSTEM
1. Be sure main power to the unit is OFF at disconnect.
2. Set thermostat system switch to OFF, fan switch to AUTO.
3. Move main power disconnect to ON. Except as required for safety while servicing, DO NOT OPEN THE UNIT DISCONNECT SWITCH.
4. Check system airow for obstructions.
A. Move thermostat fan switch to ON. Blower runs. B. Be sure all registers and grilles are open. C. Move thermostat fan switch to AUTO. Blowing
should stop.
5. Flush, ll and pressurize the closed loop system per
IGSHPA guidelines.
6. Fully open the manual inlet and outlet valves. Start the loop pump module circulator(s) and check for proper operation. If circulator(s) are not operating, turn off power and diagnose the problem.
7. Check uid ow using a direct reading ow meter or a
single water pressure gauge, measure the pressure drop at the pressure/temperature plugs across the water coil.
Compare the measurement with ow versus pressure drop table to determine the actual ow rate. If the ow
rate is too low, recheck the selection of the loop pump
module model for sufcient capacity. If the module
selection is correct, there is probably trapped air or a restriction in the piping circuit.
8. Start the unit in cooling mode by moving the thermostat switch to cool. Fan should be set for AUTO.
9. Check the system refrigerant pressures against the cooling refrigerant pressure table in the installation
manual for rated water ow and entering water
temperatures. If the refrigerant pressures do not match,
check for airow problem then refrigeration system
problem.
10. Switch the unit to the heating mode by moving the thermostat switch to heat. Fan should be set for AUTO.
11. Check the refrigerant system pressures against the heating refrigerant pressure table in installation manual.
Once again, if they do not match, check for airow
problems and then refrigeration system problems.
NOTE: If a charge problem is determined (high or low): A. Check for possible refrigerant leaks. B. Recover all remaining refrigerant from unit and
repair leak.
C. Evacuate unit down to 29 inches of vacuum. D. Recharge the unit with refrigerant by weight.
This is the only way to insure a proper charge.

WATER CONNECTIONS
It is very important that an adequate supply of clean, non­corrosive water at the proper pressure be provided before
the installation is made. Insufcient water, in the heating
mode for example, will cause the low pressure switch to trip, shutting down the heat pump. In assessing the capacity of the water system, it is advisable that the complete water system be evaluated to prevent possible lack of water or
water pressure at various household xtures whenever the
heat pump turns on. All plumbing to and from the unit is to be installed in accordance with local plumbing codes. The use of plastic pipe, where permissible, is recommended to prevent electrolytic corrosion of the water pipe. Because of the relatively cold temperatures encountered with well water, it is strongly recommended that the water lines connecting the unit be insulated to prevent water droplets from condensing on the pipe surface.
Refer to piping, Figure 11. Slow open/close with End
Switch (2), 24V, provides on/off control of the water ow to
the unit. Refer to the wiring diagram for correct hookup of the valve solenoid coil.
Constant Flow Valve (3) provides correct ow of water to
the unit regardless of variations in water pressure. Observe
the water ow direction indicated by the arrow on the side
of the valve body. Following is a table showing which valve is to be installed with which heat pump.

The gure shows the use of shutoff valves (4) and (5), on
the in and out water lines to permit isolation of the unit from the plumbing system should future service work require this. Globe valves should not be used as shutoff valves because of the excessive pressure drop inherent in the valve design. Instead use gate or ball valves as shutoffs, so as to minimize pressure drop.
Hose bib (6) and (7), and tees should be included to permit acid cleaning the refrigerant-to-water coil should such cleaning be required. See WATER CORROSION.
Hose bib (1) provides access to the system to check water
ow through the constant ow valve to insure adequate water ow through the unit. A water meter is used to check the water ow rate.

Strictly speaking, sizing the well pump is the responsibility of the well drilling contractor. It is important, however, that the HVAC contractor be familiar with the factors that determine what size pump will be required. Rule of thumb estimates will invariably lead to under or oversized well pumps. Undersizing the pump will result in inadequate water to the whole plumbing system, but with especially bad results to the heat pump – NO HEAT / NO COOL calls will result. Oversized pumps will short cycle and could cause premature pump motor or switch failures.
The well pump must be capable of supplying enough water and at an adequate pressure to meet competing demands of
water xtures. The well pump must be sized in such a way
that three requirements are met:
1. Adequate ow rate in GPM.
2. Adequate pressure at the xture.
3. Able to meet the above from the depth of the well-feet of lift.

The pressure requirements put on the pump are directly affected by the diameter of pipe being used, as well as,
by the water ow rate through the pipe. The worksheet
included in Manual 2100-078 should guarantee that the well pump has enough capacity. It should also ensure that

the piping is not undersized, which would create too much pressure due to friction loss. High pressure losses due to
undersized pipe will reduce efciency and require larger
pumps and could also create water noise problems.

SYSTEM START UP PROCEDURE FOR GROUND WA TER APPLICATIONS
1. Be sure main power to the unit is OFF at disconnect.
2. Set thermostat system switch to OFF, fan switch to AUTO.
3. Move main power disconnect to ON. Except as required for safety while servicing – DO NOT OPEN THE UNIT
DISCONNECT SWITCH.
4. Check system airow for obstructions.
A. Move thermostat fan switch to ON. Blower runs. B. Be sure all registers and grilles are open. C. Move thermostat fan switch to AUTO. Blower
should stop.
5. Fully open the manual inlet and outlet valves.
6. Check water ow.
A. Connect a water ow meter to the drain cock
between the constant ow valve and the solenoid valve. Run a hose from the ow meter
to a drain or sink. Open the drain cock.
B. Check the water ow rate through constant
ow valve to be sure it is the same as the unit
is rated for. (Example: 6 GPM for a GTC36S2.)
C. When water ow is okay, close drain cock and
remove the water ow meter. The unit is now
ready to start.
7. Start the unit in cooling mode by moving the thermostat switch to cool. Fan should be set for AUTO.
A. Check to see the solenoid valve opened.
8. Check the system refrigerant pressures against the cooling refrigerant pressure table in the installation manual for
rated water ow and entering water temperatures. If the refrigerant pressures do not match, check for airow
problem and then refrigeration system problem.
9. Switch the unit to the heat mode by moving the thermostat switch to heat. Fan should be set for AUTO.
A. Check to see the solenoid valve opened again.
10. Check the refrigerant system pressures against the heating refrigerant pressure table in installation manual. Once
again, if they do not match, check for airow problems
and then refrigeration system problems.
NOTE: If a charge problem is determined (high or low): A. Check for possible refrigerant loss. B. Discharge all remaining refrigerant from unit. C. Evacuate unit down to 29 inches of vacuum. D. Recharge the unit with refrigerant by weight.
This is the only way to insure proper charge.
WATER CORROSION
Two concerns will immediately come to light when considering a water source heat pump, whether for ground water or for a ground loop application: Will there be enough water? And, how will the water quality affect the system?
Water quantity is an important consideration and one which is easily determined. The well driller must perform a pump down test on the well according to methods described by the National Well Water Association. This test, if performed
correctly, will provide information on the rate of ow and
on the capacity of the well. It is important to consider the overall capacity of the well when thinking about a water source heat pump because the heat pump may be required to run for extended periods of time.
The second concern, about water quality, is equally important. Generally speaking, if the water is not offensive for drinking purposes, it should pose no problem for the heat pump. The well driller or local water softening company can perform tests which will determine the chemical properties of the well water.
Water quality problems will show up in the heat pump in one or more of the following ways:
1. Decrease in water ow through the unit.
2. Decreased heat transfer of the water coil (entering to leaving water temperature difference is less).
There are four main water quality problems associated with ground water. These are:
1. Biological Growth. This is the growth of microscopic organisms in the water and will show up as a slimy deposit throughout the water system. Shock treatment of the well is usually required and this is best left up to the well driller. The treatment consists of injecting
chlorine into the well casing and ushing the system
until all growth is removed.
2. Suspended Particles in the Water. Filtering will
usually remove most suspended particles (ne sand,
small gravel) from the water. The problem with suspended particles in the water is that it will erode metal parts, pumps, heat transfer coils, etc. So long
as the lter is cleaned and periodically maintained,
suspended particles should pose no serious problem. Consult with your well driller.
3. Corrosion of Metal. Corrosion of metal parts results from either highly corrosive water (acid water, generally not the case with ground water) or galvanic reaction between dissimilar metals in the presence of water. By using plastic plumbing or dielectric unions, galvanic reaction is eliminated. The use of corrosion resistant materials such as the Cupronickel coil through the water
system will reduce corrosion problems signicantly.

MIS-2836
PUMP
HOSE BIB (A)
HOSE BIB (B)
4. Scale Formation. Of all the water problems, the
formation of scale by ground water is by far the most common. Usually this scale is due to the formation of calcium carbonate but magnesium carbonate or calcium sulfate may also be present. Carbon dioxide gas (CO2), the carbonate of calcium and magnesium carbonate, is very soluble in water. It will remain dissolved in the water until some outside factor upsets the balance.
This outside inuence may be a large change in water
temperature or pressure. When this happens, enough carbon dioxide gas combines with dissolved calcium or magnesium in the water and falls out of solution until a new balance is reached. The change in temperature that this heat pump produces is usually not high enough to cause the dissolved gas to fall out of solution. Likewise, if pressure drops are kept to a reasonable level, no precipitation of carbon dioxide should occur.
REMEDIES OF WATER PROBLEMS
Water Treatment. Water treatment can usually be
economically justied for water loop systems. However,
because of the large amounts of water involved with a ground water system, water treatment is generally too expensive.
Acid Cleaning the Water Coil or Heat Pump Recovery Unit. If scaling of the coil is strongly suspected, the coil
can be cleaned up with a solution of Phosphoric Acid (food grade acid). Follow the manufacturer’s directions for mixing, use, etc. Refer to the “Cleaning Water Coil”, Figure
12. The acid solution can be introduced into the heat pump coil through the hose bib A. Be sure the isolation valves are closed to prevent contamination of the rest of the system by the coil. The acid should be pumped from a bucket into the hose bib and returned to the bucket through the other hose bib B. Follow the manufacturer’s directions for the product used as to how long the solution is to be circulated, but it is usually circulated for a period of several hours.
LAKE AND POND INSTALLATIONS
Lakes and ponds can provide a low cost source of water for heating and cooling with a ground water heat pump.
Direct usage of the water without some ltration is not
recommended as algae and turbid water can foul the water to refrigerant heat exchanger. Instead, there have been very good results using a dry well dug next to the water line or edge. Normal procedure in installing a dry well is to backhoe a 15 to 20 foot hole adjacent to the body of water (set backhoe as close to the water’s edge as possible). Once excavated, a perforated plastic casing should be installed
with gravel backll placed around the casing. The gravel bed should provide adequate ltration of the water to allow
good performance of the ground water heat pump. The following is a list of recommendations to follow when
installing this type of system: A. A lake or pond should be at least 1 acre (40,000 square
feet) in surface area for each 50,000 BTUs of ground water heat pump capacity or have 2 times the cubic feet size of the dwelling that you are trying to heat (includes basement if heated).
B. The average water depth should be at least 4 feet and
there should be an area where the water depth is at least 12 to 15 feet deep.
FIGURE 12
CLEANING WATER COIL
Manual 2100-537I Page 30 of 54
C. If possible, use a submersible pump suspended in the
dry well casing. Jet pumps and other types of suction pumps normally consume more electrical energy than similarly sized submersible pumps. Pipe the unit the same as a water well system.
D. Size the pump to provide necessary GPM for the ground
water heat pump. A 12 GPM or greater water ow rate
is required on all models when used on this type system.
E. A pressure tank should be installed in dwelling to be
heated adjacent to the ground water heat pump. A pressure switch should be installed at the tank for pump control.
F. All plumbing should be carefully sized to compensate
for friction losses, etc., particularly if the pond or lake is over 200 feet from the dwelling to be heated or cooled.
G. Keep all water lines below low water level and below
the frost line.
H. Most installers use 4-inch eld tile (rigid plastic or
corrugated) for water return to the lake or pond.
I. The drain line discharge should be located at least 100
feet from the dry well location.
J. The drain line should be installed with a slope of 2
inches per 10 feet of run to provide complete drainage of the line when the ground water heat pump is not operating. This gradient should also help prevent freezing of the discharge where the pipe terminates above the frost line.
K. Locate the discharge high enough above high water
level so the water will not back up and freeze inside the drain pipe.
L. Where the local conditions prevent the use of a gravity
drainage system to a lake or pond, you can instead run standard plastic piping out into the pond below the frost and low water level.
WARNING
Thin ice may result in the vicinity of the discharge line.
For complete information on water well systems and lake and pond applications, refer to Manual 2100-078 available from your distributor.

DESUPERHEATER
DESCRIPTION
The system is designed to heat domestic water using heat recovered from a water source unit’s hot discharge gas.
LOCATION
Because of potential damage from freezing or condensation, the unit must be located in a conditioned space, therefore the unit must be installed indoors.
Locate the storage tank as close to the geothermal heat pump and pump module as the installation permits. Keep in mind that water lines should be a maximum of 25 feet long measured one way. Also, the vertical lift should not exceed 20 feet. This is to keep pressure and heat losses to a minimum.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The Desuperheater: The desuperheater logic control with the remote thermal
sensors are built already hard-wired into the unit control panel. 208/230-60-1 power for the desuperheater pump is supplied with the same power as the compressor. The 24 volt signals needed are also tied in with the compressor call signals.
WARNING
Never alter or plug factory installed pressure relief valve on water heater or auxiliary tank.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE – GENERAL
Before beginning the installation, turn off all power supplies to the water heater and unit, and shut off the main water supply line.
TWO T ANK – In order to realize the maximum energy savings from the heat recovery system, it is recommended that a second water storage tank be installed in addition to
the main hot water heater. Fossil fuel red water heaters
must be a two-tank installation.
Tanks specically intended for hot water storage are
available from water heater manufacturers (solar hot water storage tanks). A well insulated electric water heater without the electric heating elements will also make a suitable storage tank.
The size of storage tank should be as large as space and economy permit but in no event should it be less than one­half of the daily water requirements for the occupants. As a guide in estimating the daily family water requirements, The
Department of Energy recommends a gure of 16.07 gallons
of hot water per day per individual. For example, a family of four would require 64.3 gallons per day (4 x 16.07).
ONE T ANK – The single hot water tank may be a new hot water heater (sized to 100% of daily water requirements) or
the existing water heater in the case of a retrot installation. The existing water heater should be drained and ushed to
remove all loose sediment. This sediment could damage the circulating pump. The bottom heating element should be disconnected.
NOTE: Make sure water heater thermostats are set below 125° on One Tank Unit.
WATER PIPING – All water piping must adhere to all state and local codes. Refer to piping diagrams for recommended one and two tank installations. Piping connections are 1/2 inch nominal copper plumbing.
A cleanable “Y” type strainer should also be included to collect any sediment.
Manual 2100-537I Page 32 of 54
DESUPERHEATER
OPERATION OF THE HEAT RECOVERY UNIT
The pump module is a very simple device containing basic controls and a circulating pump. Heat is transferred from the hot refrigerant (discharge gas) to the cool water.
The operation of the Desuperheater Pump Module is
controlled rst by the operation of the Geothermal Heat
Pump and secondly by internal controls within the Pump Module. A low voltage signal from Thermostat “Y” is connected to the desuperheater control board and acts as the primary on/off switch for the circulating pump.
Also connected to this board is a temperature overlimit device which shuts down the desuperheater once inlet
water has exceeded 125° so the water cannot create a scald
condition. There are also two (2) thermistor sensors connected to
the control board. These thermistors are measuring and controlling to ensure there is a positive heat differential across the water being circulated. When operating in Part Load Condition, there are certain conditions (Ground Loop Temperatures versus Hot Water Temperatures) that potential exists where heat could transfer from the hot water into the refrigeration system instead of the refrigeration system into the hot water. Through the control board logic, these
thermistors ensure there is at least 2° positive differential
between entering/leaving water temperatures and will shut down the pump accordingly.
START UP AND CHECK OUT
Be sure all shut off valves are open and all power supplies are on. Open a hot water faucet to permit any air to bleed from the plumbing.
NOTE: The inherent design of this pump for maximum
efciency means this pump is not self-priming. It is imperative to check that the air has been adequately bled
from the system. There is a bleed-port built into the pump module that can be utilized after the system water has been fully restored. The bleed port is located directly above the pump in the GTC compressor unit.
Turn ON the air conditioning system and verify the circulating pump will operate. Feel the “Water to Unit” and “Water from Water Heater” tubes for noticeable difference in temperature. Turn OFF the system and verify that the circulating pump stops.
NOTE: When checking the refrigerant operating pressures of the ground source heat pump. The desuperheater must be turned off. With the desuperheater operating a wide variance in pressures can result, giving the service technician the indication there is a charge problem when the unit is operating correctly.
MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE HEAT EXCHANGER – If scaling of the coil is strongly suspected, the coil can be cleaned with a solution of phosphoric acid (food grade acid). Follow the manufacturer’s directions for the proper mixing and use of cleaning agent.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
BLOWER
Blower functions are all controlled through 24 VAC input signals from the control thermostat and 208/230 VAC being supplied to the motor continuously.
The installer must be sure to congure the tap select control
board (located in blower compartment) based upon the
specic model application. By default, the tap select control
(located in the blower compartment), is shipped from the
factory to operate at the airow ranges for the GTC60S2
model. Please see Wiring Diagram (Page 53) which details the required dip switch changes required between models.
NOTE 1: On a call from only “G” from the thermostat (call
for manual fan), the blower will operate at a signicantly reduced airow rate to allow for air circulation and ltration, but at reduced power consumption and sound
levels. NOTE 2: There are ±10% adjustments that are enabled
on the tap select control that will allow you to increase or decrease the air volume plus or minus 10%. Increasing the air volume may help with some slightly increased capacity and increased duct velocity if there is an air distribution issue. Decreasing the air volume with help improve latent capacity in a humid application, and will help to lower air distribution sound levels. Please see Wiring Diagram (Page
53) which details the required dip switch changes for this adjustment.
PART LOAD COOLING
When thermostat system switch is placed in COOL, it completes a circuit from “R” to “O”, energizing the reversing valve solenoid. On a call for cooling, the thermostat completes a circuit from “R” to “Y1” sending the signal to both the Tap Select Control located in the blower section and to the Geothermal Logic Control located in the compressor section. The tap select control uses the input signal versus the motor program, and the dip switch settings to determine the proper air volume rate to operate. The
Geothermal Logic Control veries that the High Pressure
Switch, the Low Pressure Switch, and the Freeze Stat controls are all in the “closed” position. It then energizes
the “A” terminal ouput to start the ow center (Ground
Loop Applications) or energizes the water solenoid (Ground Water/Water Loop Applications). Following 10 seconds of the “A” terminal energization, the compressor contactor is energized.
FULL LOAD COOLING
The system should already be in Part Load Cooling operation prior to Full Load Cooling being energized. Additionally what happens, the thermostat completes a circuit from “R” to “Y2”. This sends a signal to both the staging solenoid on the side of the compressor, and sends a signal to the Blower Tap Select Control in the blower compartment to drive the blower to the proper CFM.
PART LOAD HEATING (No Electric Heat)
When thermostat system is placed in HEAT, the reversing valve solenoid is no longer energized. On a call for part load heating, the thermostat completes a call from “R” to “Y1” sending the signal to both the Tap Select Control located in the blower compartment, and to the Geothermal Logic Control located in the compressor section. The tap select control uses the input signal versus the motor program, and the dip switch settings to determine the proper air volume rate to operate. The Geothermal Logic Control
veries that the High Pressure Switch, the Low Pressure
Switch, and the Freeze Stat controls are all in the “closed” position. It then energizes the “A” terminal output to start
the ow center (Ground Loop Applications) or energizes the
water solenoid (Ground Water/Water Loop Applications.) Following 10 seconds of the “A” terminal energization, the compressor contactor is energized.
FULL LOAD HEATING
The system should already be in Part Load Heating operation prior to Full Load Heating being energized. Additionally what happens, the thermostat completes a circuit from “R” to “Y2”. This sends a signal to both the staging solenoid on the side of the compressor, and sends a signal to the Blower Tap Select Control in the blower compartment to drive the blower to the proper CFM.
SUPPLEMENTARY ELECTRIC HEAT
The system should already be in FULL LOAD HEATING operation (above). The thermostat completes a circuit from
“R” to “W2”, which energizes the rst bank of electric heat.
GEOTHERMAL LOGIC CONTROL
If the controller operates in normal mode, the green Status LED blinks. This indicates that 24 volt power is applied to the board and the controller is running in normal operation.
On initial power up and call for compressor operation, a 5-minute delay + a random start delay of 0 to 60-second is applied. After the random delay, the compressor relay is energized (Terminals CC & CCG). When the “Y” input opens the compressor de-energizes.
Water Solenoid – When “Y” signal is sent to Geothermal Logic Control, the water solenoid output “A” terminal will energize 10 seconds prior to “CC” output that starts compressor.
Anti-Short Cycle Timer – After compressor shutdown, or power disruption, a 5-minute timer is applied and prevents the compressor from operating.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
HIGH PRESSURE SWITCH
(TERMINALS HP1 & HP2) Circuit will be proved as “closed” prior to energizing “A” or “CC” terminals. If pressure switch opens, compressor will go into soft lockout mode and compressor operation will be terminated; green fault light illuminated. Logic control will then go through 5-minute delay on break + random start sequence. If no fault found on next run cycle, compressor will continue operation. If fault reoccurs, hard lockout occurs, and fault signal is sent to “L” terminal.
LOW PRESSURE SWITCH
(TERMINALS LP1 & LP2) Circuit will be proved as “closed” prior to energizing “A” or “CC” terminals. The conditions of the LP terminals will then be ignored for the
rst 90 seconds after a demand for compressor operation.
Following this 90 second period, if pressure switch opens, compressor will go into soft lockout mode and compressor operation will be terminated; orange fault light illuminated. The control board will then go through a 5-minute delay on break + random start sequence. If no fault found on next run cycle, compressor will continue operation. If fault reoccurs, hard lockout occurs, and fault signal is sent to “L” terminal.
FREEZE STAT (Optional Field Add-On Option)
(TERMINALS FS & FS2) Circuit will be proved as “closed” prior to energizing “A” or “CC” terminals. If freezestat switch opens, compressor will go into soft lockout mode and compressor operation will be terminated; red fault light illuminated. Logic control will then go through 5-minute delay on break + random start sequence. If no fault found on next run cycle, compressor will continue operation. If fault reoccurs, hard lockout occurs, and fault signal is sent to “L” terminal.
UNDER & OVER VOLTAGE PROTECTION
When an under or over voltage condition exists, the controller locks out the unit. When condition clears, the controller automatically releases the unit to normal operation and the compressor restarts after the random start and anti-short cycle timings are met. The under & over voltage protection starts at plus or minus 20% from nominal voltage and returns to operation at plus or minus 10% from
nominal voltage. All four (4) LED fault lights will ash
when an under or over voltage condition occurs. The over voltage protection can be disabled by removing the O/V jumper.
INTELLIGENT RESET
The Geothermal Logic Control has an intelligent reset feature after a safety control is activated. The controller locks out the unit for 5 minutes, at the end of this period, the controller checks to verify that all faults have been cleared. If faults have been cleared, the controller restarts the unit. If a second fault occurs, the controller will lock out the unit until the unit is manually reset by breaking “Y” signal from thermostat. The last fault will be kept in memory after a full lockout; this is only cleared by cycling the power.
ALARM OUTPUT
The “L” terminal has 24 volts applied when a hard lockout occurs. This can be used to drive a fault light or a low voltage relay.
PRESSURE SERVICE PORTS
High and low pressure service ports are installed on all units so that the system operating pressures can be observed. Pressure tables can be found later in the manual covering all models. It is imperative to match the correct pressure table to the unit by model number.
NOTE: Jumper wire is factory installed.
CONDENSATE OVERFLOW
(Terminals CO & CO2) This input operates when the water level in the condensation pan rises and completes a signal across the terminals of the terminal block located in the indoor coil drain pan; yellow fault light illuminates. If fault clears, the logic control will go through 5-minute delay +
random start. If fault reoccurs, or didn’t clear the rst time
after 30 seconds, the control will go into hard lockout, and will energize the “L” output signal.
SYSTEM START-UP
Step 1 – Close disconnect switch(es) and set the thermostat
to cool and the temperature to the highest setting.
Step 2 – Check for proper airow across the indoor coil.
Step 3 – Connect the service gauges and allow the unit to
run for at least 10 minutes or until pressures are stable. Check pressures to the system pressure table attached to the unit service panel.
Step 4 – Fill out Ground Source Heat Pump Performance
Report.

REFRIGERANT CHARGE
LINE SET INSTALLATION – GTA COIL SECTIONS
CHARGE ADJUSTMENT
All supplied line sets with threaded refrigerant connections are factory evacuated and charged with R-410A refrigerant at the quantity required to optimize system performance. Refer to Table 9 to see this charge quantity if you need to reprocess the charge due to repairing damage or replacement of a defective component.
For those using Stub Kits GTLS-SK2-1 or GTLS-SK4-1,
you will rst need to braze up both ends of your line set
(to the point that it is sealed). Ports are provided on the GTLS-SK*-1 kits so that you can pull a vacuum on the line set and pre-charge with refrigerant before screwing on
the refrigerant ttings onto the pre-charged condenser and
evaporator (if using one with threaded connectors). For charge quantity, use Table 9 as a good general reference
to the required R-410A refrigerant required based upon your
line set length. Or, you can specically measure your line
set length, and add 1.4 ounces of R-410A refrigerant per 1' of line set length.
REFRIGERANT FITTING ATT ACHMENT
1. Coat all mating surface, including o-rings, with R-410A refrigerant oil (Polyol Ester).
2. Attach female ttings to coil/condensing unit portion
by hand-threading initially. Be careful not to cross­ thread assembly. For the pre-manufactured 3' line
set used with a vertical (stacked) conguration, the
ttings should be threaded simultaneously. Again, be
careful not to cross-thread either assembly.
3. Final torque should be achieved. Use the appropriate size wrench in conjunction with a second (backing)
wrench to ensure that ttings do not spin or twist on
the copper refrigerant lines. Use the following torque rates:
3/8" Lineset – 22-25 ft. lbs. (30-35 Nm) 7/8" Lineset – 44-47 ft. lbs. (60-65 Nm)
CHECKING REFRIGERANT CHARGE QUANTITY – GTA COIL SECTIONS
The correct R-410A charge is shown on the unit rating plate (including adders for the various line set lengths). Reference Figure 21 to validate proper system operation. However, it is recommended that if incorrect charge is suspected, the system refrigerant be reclaimed, evacuated, and charged to nameplate charge quantity and type (including necessary charge adjustment for the installed line set length).
The nameplate charge quantity is optimized for thermal
performance and efciency throughout all modes of
operation.

GENERAL – GTADP COIL SECTIONS
GENERAL (GTADP Add-On Coils)
These instructions are intended as a general guide and do not supersede the coil manufacturer’s installation instructions or local codes in any way. Read the manufacturer’s
installation manual and all “WARNING” statements prior to installing the evaporator coil.
The following is needed, in addition to the evaporator coil.
1. Line Set Stub Kit with Single Pair Ends – Bard Part No. GTLS-SK2-1
2. Line Set consisting of 7/8" and 3/8" soft rolled copper with insulation.
3. Coil Spacer (Oil Furnaces Only)
Coils are shipped with a 10 PSIG dry air holding charge. Puncture rubber plug on suction line to release charge before removing plugs. The absence of pressure does not
verify a leak. Check the coil for leaks prior to installing if a leak is suspected.
Position the coil/box directly on top of a gas furnace and secure using sheet metal screws. The drain pans are made
of a polymer that can withstand temperatures up to 450˚F.
If installed on an oil or drum type heat exchanger (a coil spacer is recommended to) maintain a 6 inch clearance
to protect the pan and to provide optimum air ow over
the coil. Coil should be level, or pitched slightly toward the drain connections. See Figure 20.
DO NOT CONNECT THE LINE SET TO THE CONDENSER SECTION
Pre-charge the line set and evaporator coil with the amount of R-410A calculated earlier.
REFRIGERANT FITTING ATT ACHMENT (After pre-charging line set & coil) (GTADP Add-On Coils)
1. Coat all mating surfaces, including o-rings, with R-410A refrigerant oil (Polyol Ester).
2. Attach female ttings to condensing unit portion by hand-threading initially. Be careful not to cross-
thread assembly.
3. Final torque should be achieved. Use the appropriate size wrench in conjunction with a second (backing)
wrench to ensure that the ttings do not spin or twist
on the copper refrigerant lines. Use the following torque rates:
3/8" Line Set: 22-25 ft. lbs. (30-35 Nm) 7/8" Line Set: 44-47 ft. lbs. (60-65 Nm)
FIGURE 20
COIL SPACER
LINE SET INSTALLATION (GTADP Add-On Coils)
Braze up one end of the line set to the GTLS-SK2-1 stub kit and the other end to the evaporator coil. Ports are provided in the GTLS-SK2-1 kit. Pull a vacuum (100 microns) on the line set and coil. Pre-charge the line set and coil with
refrigerant before screwing the refrigerant ttings onto the
pre-charged condenser section.
REFRIGERANT CHARGE QUANTITY – Line Set and Evaporator Coil (GTADP Add-On Coils)
The refrigerant charge shown on the GTC condenser section is based on being matched with a GTA coil section and not the ADP “A” coil. Charge adjustments are required for proper system operation when using an ADP coil. Use the following formulas to determine the amount of charge required.
GTC36 Line Set Charge = Line Set Length (FT) X 1.4 oz. R-410A/FT – 3.0 oz.
GTC48 Line Set Charge = Line Set Length (FT) X 1.4 oz. R-410A/FT – 9.0 oz.
GTC60 Line Set Charge = Line Set Length (FT) X 1.4 oz. R-410A/FT + 20.0 oz.
Example:
A GTC48 condenser section is being installed with a GTADP-4860-C evaporator coil and a 25 foot line set.
GTC48 Line Set Charge = Line Set Length 25 (FT) X
1.4 oz. R-410A/FT – 9.0 oz. GTC48 Line Set Charge = 26.0 oz.

REFRIGERANT CHARGE
These units require R-410A refrigerant and Polyol Ester.
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.
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.
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 ammable.
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 ll 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 signicantly
at warmer temperatures. Once a cylinder or line is full of liquid, any further rise in temperature will cause it to burst.
TOPPING OFF SYSTEM CHARGE
If a leak has occurred in the system, reclaiming, evacuating (see criteria above), and charging to the nameplate charge is recommended.
Topping off the system charge can be done without
problems. With R-410A, there are no signicant
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 charging 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.

SERVICE
SERVICE HINTS
1. Caution owner to maintain clean air lters at all times.
Also, not to needlessly close off supply and return air
registers. This reduces airow through the system,
which shortens equipment service life as well as increasing operating costs.
2. Check all power fuses or circuit breakers to be sure that they are the correct rating.
UNBRAZING SYSTEM COMPONENTS
If the refrigerant charge is removed from a scroll equipped unit by bleeding the high side only, it is sometimes possible for the scrolls to seal, preventing pressure equalization through the compressor. This may leave low side shell and suction line tubing pressurized. If the brazing torch is then applied to the low side while the low side shell and suction line contains pressure, the pressurized refrigerant and oil mixture could ignite when it escapes and contacts the
brazing ame. To prevent this occurrence, it is important
to check both the high and low side with manifold gauges before unbrazing.
ECM MOTOR
This unit is equipped with an ECM motor. It is important that the blower motor plugs are not plugged in or unplugged while the power is on. Failure to remove power prior to unplugging or plugging in the motor could result in motor failure.
COMPRESSOR SOLENOID
(See Sequence of Operation on Pages 37 & 38 for function.)
A nominal 24-volt direct current coil activates the internal compressor solenoid. The input control circuit voltage must be 18 to 28 volts ac. The coil power requirement is 20 VA. The external electrical connection is made with a molded
plug assembly. This plug contains a full wave rectier to
supply direct current to the unloader coil. Compressor Solenoid Test Procedure – If it is suspected
that the unloader is not working, the following methods may be used to verify operation.
1. Operate the system and measure compressor amperage. Cycle the compressor solenoid on and off at 10-second intervals. The compressor amperage should go up or down at least 25 percent.
2. If step one does not give the expected results, shut unit off. Apply 18 to 28 volts ac to the solenoid molded plug leads and listen for a click as the solenoid pulls in. Remove power and listen for another click as the solenoid returns to its original position.
3. If clicks can’t be heard, shut off power and remove the control circuit molded plug from the compressor and measure the solenoid coil resistance. The resistance should be 32 to 60 ohms depending on compressor temperature.
4. Next, check the molded plug.
Voltage check: Apply control voltage to the plug wires (18 to 28 volts ac). The measured dc voltage at the female connectors in the plug should be around 15 to 27 vdc.
WARNING
Both the high and low side of the scroll compressor must be checked with manifold gauges before unbrazing system components. Failure to do so could cause pressurized refrigerant and oil mixture
toigniteifitescapesandcontactsthebrazingame
causing property damage, bodily harm or death.
CAUTION
Do not plug in or unplug blower motor connectors while the power is on. Failure to do so may result in motor failure.
Resistance check: Measure the resistance from the end of one molded plug lead to either of the two female connectors in the plug. One of the connectors should read close to zero
ohms, while the other should read innity. Repeat with
other wire. The same female connector as before should
read zero, while the other connector again reads innity.
Reverse polarity on the ohmmeter leads and repeat. The
female connector that read innity previously should now
read close to zero ohms. Replace plug if either of these test methods does not show
the desired results.

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 specic 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 unit 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 not necessary to remove the motor from the blower assembly, nor the blower assembly from the unit. Unplug the two cable connectors to the motor control assembly. There are latches on each connector. DO NOT PULL ON THE WIRES. The plugs remove easily when properly released.
4. Locate the screws that retain to t metal of the unit and remove them. Remove two (2) nuts that retain the control to the bracket and then remove two (2) nuts that retain sheet metal motor control end plate. Refer to Figure 22.
5. Disconnect the three (3) wires interior of the motor control by using
your thumb and forenger squeezing the latch tab and the opposite side
of the connector plug, gently pulling the connector. DO NOT PULL ON THE WIRES, GRIP THE PLUG ONLY. Refer to Figure 22.
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 23. (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.
he motor control bracket to the sheet
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.
8. Reverse the steps #5, 4, 3 to reconnect the motor control to the motor wires, securing the motor control cover plate, mounting the control to the bracket, and mounting the motor control bracket back into the unit. 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. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN THE BOLTS.
9. Plug the 16-pin control plug into the motor. The plug is keyed. Make sure the connector is properly seated and latched.
10. 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.
11.
Final installation check. Make sure the motor is installed as follows: a. Motor connectors should be oriented between the 4 o’clock and 8 o’clock positions when the control is positioned in its
nal location and orientation.
b. Add a drip loop to the cables so that water cannot enter the motor by draining down the cables. Refer to Figure 24.
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.
