Model 585B Gas/Electric Units are fully self-contained,
single-packaged combination heating/cooling horizontaldischarge units.
These packaged units are equipped with an energy-saving
RELITE-type electric spark ignition pilot that saves gas by
operating only when the room thermostat “calls for heat
ing.” Natural gas controls are standard. For propane opera
tion, conversion kit P/N 301625-703 must be field-installed.
Model 585B units have two A.G.A.-certified heating input
ratings. See Table I.
These units are designed for outdoor installation either on a
rooftop or at ground level on a slab. The cooling section is
factory-charged and sealed, minimizing installation time.
Installation is easy—connect gas supply, air ducts, conden
sate drain, high- and low-voltage wiring, and install the air
filter.
NOTE: An optional condenser coil grille is available for field
installation. See Figure 1.
A full line of rooftop system accessories are available for
field installation. These accessories include plenums with
factory-supplied high-capacity filter and outside air intake
hood, unitized curbs, economizers (both downflow and
horizontal), barometric relief dampers, concentric diffuser
box assemblies, flexible duct packages, and high-capacity
filter racks with filters. When installing these accessories,
see Installation Instructions packaged with them.

24 inches. Select a location where rain, ice, and snow will not
fall from an overhang and damage the unit top or fan blade,
or flood the unit.
There is no minimum clearance requirement for the bottom
of the unit; therefore, combustible materials can be used for
supports.
D. Base Rails
The base rails are easily removed for a lower profile installa
tion or a better fit to angle iron frames used in some rooftop
installations. To remove the base rails, simply remove the
screws on either end of the rails.
NOTE: The base rails must not be removed when installing
the accessory unitized curb and plenum.
E. Condensate Drain
The unit is designed to dispose of condensate water through
a 3/4-inch FPT connection on the drain pan. See Figure 2 for
location. It is recommended that a trap be installed in the
condensate drain line to avoid improper drainage. See
Figure 5. The trap should be as close to the coil as possible.
Make sure that the top of the trap is at least 2 inches lower
than the drain pan connection to prevent the drainpan from
overflowing.
Prime the trap with water and check the condensate line for
leaks.
If the installation requires draining the condensate away
from the roof or the building, connect a minimum of 7/8-inch
OD copper tubing, 3/4-inch galvanized pipe, or 7/8-inch
plastic pipe, and pitch downward at a slope of at least 1 inch
in every 10 feet of horizontal run.
CAUTION: Do not imdtTsizf conden.sate drain connection.
Consult local codes for additional restrictions and/or precau
tions.
II. VENTING
NOTE: The vent cap assembly is shipped in the blower com
partment with sizes 018050 and 024050. Remove the blower
access door to locate the assembly. This assembly is shipped
in the control compartment with all other sizes. Remove the
control access door to locate the assembly. See Figure 2 for
the location of these access doors.
CAUTION: The veniin g system has been designed to ensure
proper venting, fhe vent cap assembly niii.st be installed
only as indicated in this section of the unit Installation In
structions.
NOTE: Screw holes in the vent stack extension and the vent
cap are not symmetrically located to ensure proper orienta
tion when installing these components.
Refer to Figure 6 and install the vent cap assembly as fol
lows:
1. Place gasket and vent stack extension through hole in
combustion air duct and orient screw holes in base of
vent stack extension with holes in unit top.
2. Secure gasket and vent stack extention to unit top with
screws provided.
3. Place vent cap onto vent stack extension and orient
screw holes in vent cap with holes in extension.
4. Secure vent cap in place with screws provided.
5. Form flat wire screen provided into circular shape
around protruding lip of combustion air duct.
6. Bend wire ends through holes of screen mesh to secure
screen in place.

III. GAS PIPING
A separate gas supply line should be installed to run directly
from meter to heating section. Check the local utility for
recommendations concerning existing lines. Choose a supply
pipe large enough to keep pressure loss as low as practical.
Never use pipe smaller than gas connection to heating sec
tion. Observe local codes for all gas pipe installations. Refer
to the national codes indicated on the first page of the in
structions in the absence of local building codes. The fol
lowing are pertinent recommendations:
1. Avoid low spots in long runs of pipe. It is best to grade
all pipe 1/4 inch in every 15 feet to prevent traps. All
horizontal runs should grade downward to risers. Risers
should be used to connect to heating section and to
meter.
2. Install drip leg in riser leading to heating section. Drip
leg will function as trap for dirt and condensate. Install
drip legs where condensate will not freeze.
3. Install external manual shut-off valve in gas supply
pipe near heating section.
CAUTION: I 'n>lal)lo ipperaiioii may (Hcur. parriiailarly

4. Where local codes permit, we recommend using flexible
gas pipe to make connection between rigid, gas piping
and unit gas valve to ensure proper alignment between
manifold orifices and burners. Gas supply pipe enters
unit through access hole provided. See Figure 2 for loca
tion. Gas connection to unit is made to 1/2-inch FPT gas
inlet on gas valve. See Figure 7.
5. Install ground joint union close to heating section be
tween gas valve and manual shut-off valve.
6. Support all piping with appropriate hangers, etc. Use
minimum of one hanger in every 6 feet. For pipe size
other than 1/2 inch, follow recommendations of the na
tional codes.
7. Use joint compound (pipe dope) that is resistant to
action of liquefied petroleum gases.
NOTE: Teflon tape is not recommended.
WARNING: Never use a match or other open flame when
checking for gas leaks.
8. After all connections are made, use soap-and-water solu
tion to check for leaks (or method specified by local
utility regulations) at all field installed and factory in
stalled gas lines.
IV. DUCT CONNECTIONS
Flanges are provided on the unit supply- and return-air
openings for duct connections. See Figure 2 for connection
sizes and locations. See Figures 8, 9, and 10 for illustrations

junction with all applicable criteria presented in this section of
the unit Installation Instructions.
NOTE: The minimum installation requirements of the duct
system must be in accordance with the standards of the Na
tional Fire Protection Association for installation of air con
ditioning and ventilating systems of other than residencetype, NFPA No. 90; or residence-type, warm-air heating and
air conditioning systems, NFPA No. 90B; and/or local codes
and ordinances.
The following criteria must be followed when selecting, siz
ing, and installing ductwork:
1. Ductwork, registers, and return-air grilles should be
selected and sized according to ASHRAE recommenda
tions and as presented in BDP training materials.
CAUTION: When drilling duct flange fastening holes in the
unit side, use care to avoid puncturing the evaporator coil.
2. Ductwork can be screwed or bolted to unit duct flanges.
Use suitable gaskets to insure airtight seal.
3. External fleld-supplied air Alter must be installed in return-air ductwork. Recommended sizes for filters are
shown in Table I. Install filters where they are easily ac
cessible for service.
NOTE: Accessory plenums and horizontal economizers have
factory-supplied, high-capacity filters.
4. Avoid abrupt duct size increases and reductions.
5. Provide supply and return ductwork with an approved
vibration eliminator.
6. Adequately insulate and weatherproof all ductwork
located outdoors. Ducts passing thru unconditioned
space must be insulated and covered with vapor barrier
in accordance with latest issue of SMACNA and NESCA
minimum installation standards for heating and air
conditioning systems.
7. Secure all ducts to building structure.
8. All openings in building structure must be properly
flashed, weatherproofed, and vibration-isolated in ac
cordance with local codes and good building practices.
V. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
WARNING: The unit cabinet must have an uninterrupted or
unbroken electrical ground. This can consist of electrical
wire connected to the ground lug in the control box or con
duit approved for electrical ground, when installed in ac
cordance with existing electrical codes.
CAUTION: Copper conductor is the only type of wire that is
to be connected between the electrical disconnect and the
unit. Do not use aluminum wire.
Operation of the unit on improper line voltage, or with ex
cessive phase imbalance, constitutes abuse and is not
covered by warranty.
All electrical connections must be made in accordance with
the National Electrical Code and local electrical codes
governing such wiring.
The unit must be electrically grounded in accordance with
the National Electrical Code, ANSI CI-1975, when an exter
nal electrical source is utilized.
A separate electrical line with a fused disconnect switch
mounted at, or within sight of, the unit should be used for
this installation. Refer to the unit rating plate for maximum
fuse size. See Table II, III, or IV for recommended wire sizes
and lengths.
WARNING: Label P/N A-74191B, which is shipped loose in
bag of parts, must be affixed to the electrical disconnect box.
This label states: “Do not disconnect the electrical power to
this appliance without first turning off the gas supply.”
NOTE: Fused disconnect may be mounted directly on con
trol corner panel. To mount disconnect on this panel, align
disconnect box knockout with unit high-voltage inlet hole
and secure box to panel. Route wiring from disconnect
through aligned knockout and unit inlet.
CAUTION: Ensure that the drill does not damage any com
ponents when drilling through the panel.
NOTE: If aluminum conductor is used from the electrical
service to the disconnect switch where local codes permit the
use of aluminum wire, the connections must be made in ac
cordance with the National Electrical Code. In preparing the
wire, just before installing the connector, all aluminum wire
must be “brush-scratched” and then coated with a corrosion
inhibitor, such as Pentrox A. When it is suspected that the
connection will be exposed to moisture, it is very important
to cover the entire connection completely to prevent an
electrochemical action that will cause the connection to fail
very quickly. Reducing the effective size of the wire, such as
cutting off strands so that the wire will fit a connector, is
very poor practice. Properly sized connectors should be used.
CAUTION: If aluminum conductors are to be used, the wire
gauge selected must have current capacity not less than the
copper wire specified and must not create a voltage drop be
tween the service panel and the unit in excess of 2% of the
unit rated voltage.
A. High-Voltage Connections
Proceed as follows to complete high-voltage connections:
1. Run high-voltage leads from fused disconnect through
high-voltage inlet hole provided in control corner panel.
See Figure 2 for location of panel and hole.
2. Run high-voltage leads into unit control box and con
nect leads to contactor. See unit wiring label and Figure
11.

and Figure 11.
B. Special Procedures for 208-V Operation
WARNING: Make sure the power supply to the unit is
switched OFF before making any wiring changes.
When size 018050 thru 036125 dual-voltage units are to be
operated at 208 volts, unplug the orange lead running to the
primary side of the unit transformer and plug it onto the
208-V red transformer tap. See the unit wiring label.
When sizes 018050 or 024050 are to be operated at 208 volts,
additional wiring changes must be made in the unit control
box as follows:
1. Unplug orange motor lead connected to evaporator mo
tor run capacitor (4A1). See unit wiring label. Tape end
of orange lead.
2. Plug unused yellow motor lead onto vacated run capaci
tor terminal. Figure 12 shows corrected wiring.
B. Low-Voltage Connections
CAUTION: When room thermostat leads are run in the
same conduit with high-voltage leads, they must be insu
lated for the highest voltage contained within the conduit.
A room thermostat with isolated contacts must be used to
prevent interconnection of class 2 outputs. (The following
recommended thermostats meet this criteria.)
Recommended room thermostats are P/N 34427D03O (sub
base included) or P/N PS2758-1 (or -2) with subbase P/N
PS2759-34 for manual system changeover. For automatic
system changeover, use thermostat P/N 34427D52 or P/N
PS3108A with subbase P/N PS3109E.
Mount the room thermostat on an inside wall of the space to
be conditioned. The thermostat should be positioned approx
imately 4 or 5 feet above the floor, and located where it will
not be subjected directly to either a cooling or heating
source, or direct exposure to sunlight.
If low-voltage leads from the thermostat are run separately,
enter the unit through grommeted hole provided in the con
trol corner panel. See Figure 2 for hole location.
Connect the low-voltage thermostat leads to the flagged pig
tail leads that run through a hole in the bottom of the unit
control box. See Figures 7 and 11.
NOTE: Connect thermostat to unit using No. 18 AWG “col
or-coded” insulated wires. If thermostat is located more than
100 feet from unit as measured along the low-voltage wires,
use No. 16 AWG wire.
C. Heat Anticipator Setting
The room thermostat heat anticipator must be properly
adjusted to insure proper heating performance. Set the heat
anticipator to 0.85 amps.
Failure to make a proper heat anticipator adjustment will
result in improper operation, discomfort to the occupants of
the conditioned space, and inefficient energy utilization;
however, the required setting can be changed slightly to pro
vide a greater degree of comfort for a particular installation.
VI. PREPARING UNIT FOR STARTUP
Proceed as follows to prepare the unit for startup:
1. Remove all service access panels and check for shipping
damages, such as broken lines, loose parts, disconnected
wires, etc.
2. Read and follow instructions on all WARNING, CAU
TION, AND INFORMATION labels and tags attached
to unit; such as motor rotation labels, blower rotation
labels, and vent instruction tag.
3. Make certain gas supply has been purged and all gas
piping checked.
WARNING: Do not purge into the combustion chamber. Do
not use a match or other open flame to check for leakage.
4. Check to be sure all wiring connections, including facto
ry connections, have been completed and are tight.
5. Inspect all supply ducts and grilles to be sure they are
adjusted properly.
6. Check to be sure air filters are in place.
VII. HEATING STARTUP AND ADJUSTMENTS
CAUTION: Complete the steps in Section VI before starting
unit.
Do not jumper any safety devices when operating unit.
Burner orifice alignment must be insured. Unstable opera
tion may occur when the manifold’s burner orifices are not
aligned correctly. To insure correct burner orifice alignment,
check the orifice angle with a machinist’s or carpenter’s
square, a machinist’s protractor, or other suitable device.
The orifice angle should be from horizontal to 3 degrees
down as measured from the unit base.
Follow the instructions on the unit rating plate for starting
the heating section.
A. Gas Input
The unit rating plate indicates two A.G.A.-certified gas
inputs. The burners are equipped with natural gas orifices
that deliver the minimum rated input. Optional field-installed burner orifices are required to provide the optional
maximum heating input rating. See Table V.
When the unit is being installed for operation at the
optional maximum heating input rating, proceed as follows
to install the field-supplied maximum heating input burner
orifices:
1. Remove burner shield and burners.
2. Remove factory-supplied burner orifices from manifold
and replace with field-supplied maximum heating input
burner orifices.
3. Replace burners and burner shield.
4. Mark appropriate changes on unit rating plate in boxes
provided.
For propane gas operation, propane conversion kit P/N
301625-703 must be field-installed. This kit contains six
burner orifices for the minimum input rating and six for the
maximum input rating. Six orifices are sufficient for the
largest heating unit. For smaller heating sizes, all orifices
will not be required. See Table V.
CAUTION: The units are designed to give the correct input
using the fixed orifices and manifold pressures shown in
Table V. Do not redrill the orifices under any circumstances.
NOTE: The minimum and maximum rated inputs shown in
Table V are for altitudes from sea level up to 7000 feet above
sea level at the minimum input or 2000 feet above sea level
at the maximum input. These inputs are based on a heating
value for natural gas of 1050 Btu/ft® at 0.65 specific gravity
and propane gas with a heating value of 2500 Btu/ft®. For
elevations above 7000 feet at the minimum rated input or
2000 feet at the maximum rated input, reduce the ratings
4% for each 1000 feet above sea level. For other gas heating
values or specific gravities, refer to BDP training and ap
plication materials, national and local codes, or contact your
BDP Distributor or Branch to determine the required orifice
size.
B. Adjusting Gas Input (Natural Gas Furnace)
Natural gas input can be determined and adjusted using one
of the following two recommended methods.
1. Measuring Gas Flow at Meter
All other gas appliances must be turned off when measuring
gas flow at meter to check the input. Proceed as follows:

*Data in this tabie is based on aititudes from sea ievei up to 7000 feet above sea ievel at the minimum rated input, or 2000 feet above sea
levei at the maximum rated input. For higher altitudes, follow the recommendations of national and local codes,
t Gas inputs for natural gas are based on a heating value of 1050 Btu/Ft® with a specific gravity of 0.65 at the factory-set manifold pres
sure of 3.5 inches wc. Gas inputs for propane gas is based on a heating value of 2500 Btu/Ft® with a specific gravity of 1.5 at a manifold
pressure of 10.5 inches wc.
fThese natural gas burner orifices are the factory-supplied orifices. All other natural gas orifices shown are optional field-supplied
orifices.
**Propane burner orifice P/N’s shown are furnished in conversion kit P/N 301625-703.
a. Determine number of seconds for gas meter test dial
to make one revolution.
b. Divide 3600 by number of seconds in step a.
c. Multiply result of step b by the nuinber of cubic feet
shown for one revolution of test dial. This gives
cubic feet of gas flow per hour.
d. Multiply result from step c by Btu heating value of
gas. Consult local utility for heating value of gas.
This is the total measured input in Btuh. Compare this value
with input shown in Table V.
Example: Suppose the size of test dial is 1 cubic foot; it
takes 30 seconds to complete one revolution; heating value
of gas 1050 Btu/ft^. Proceed as follows:
a. 30 seconds to complete one revolution.
b. 3600 divided by 30 equals 120.
c. 120 times 1 equals 120 cubic feet of gas flow per
hour.
d. 120 times 1050 equals 126,000-Btuh input.
If the desired input was 125,000 Btuh, only minor changes
would have to be made at the pressure regulator adjustment
screw on the gas valve to bring the unit to the desired input.
If the measured input does not agree with the value desired,
the manifold pressure may be adjusted with the REG ADJ
screw on the gas valve as follows:
To increase input: Turn screw clockwise.
To decrease input: Turn screw counterclockwise.
2. Measuring Manifold Pressure
A water manometer is required to measure the manifold
pressure. If a spring manometer is used, make sure the
manometer is calibrated.
When the heating value of the natural gas being used for a
particular installation is significantly more or less than
1050 Btu/ft®, or slight manifold pressure changes are neces
sary for other reasons, the manifold pressure may be
adjusted at the REG ADJ screw on the gas valve.
CAUTION: Do not adj ust the manifold pressure more than
0.3 inches wc above or below the 3.5 inches wc factory set
ting. If larger adjustments are required, change the burner
orifices following the recommendations of national and local
Proceed as follows to measure manifold pressure and to
adjust gas input:
a. Turn off gas to unit.
b. Remove pipe plug on gas valve outlet identified as
PRESS TAP, and connect manometer at this point.
c. Turn on gas to unit and start heating section.
d. With all burners fired, adjust manifold pressure
with REG ADJ screw on gas valve to obtain desired
gas input.
NOTE: To increase input, increase manifold pressure by
turning screw clockwise. To decrease input, decrease
manifold pressure by turning screw counterclockwise.
e. Turn off gas to unit. Remove manometer from gas
valve and replace pipe plug.
C. Adjusting Gas Input (Propane Gas Furnace)
The field-installed propane conversion kit contains a pro
pane gas regulator spring that replaces the natural gas reg
ulator spring in the unit combination gas valve/pressure
regulator. The converted pressure regulator is then adjusted
to provide the desired gas input. Follow the procedures in
the conversion kit Installation Instructions to adjust the
propane gas input.
D. Adjusting Burner Air Shutters
To adjust the primary air to each burner, partially close the
air shutter until there is a slight yellow tip on the top of the
flame, then open the air shutter until the yellow tip just dis
appears. This should be done after the burners have been
operating at full input for 5 or 10 minutes (approximately).
Secure shutters with locking screws after adjusting primary
air to each burner.
E. Blower Fan Relay (Heating)
The heating relay (See Figure 7) is located in the control box
and is adjustable to permit lengthening or shortening the
“off” cycle. The “on” cycle is automatically adjusted as the
“ofiT’ cycle is changed.
The fan control adjusting lever is factory-set at the center
position and should give optimum performance in most in
stallations. However, on unusual installations, or where the
line voltage is considerably above or below the rated output,
it may be necessary to increase or decrease the length of
time the blower remains on. For longer blower operation,
move the adjusting lever toward the right-hand position. In
this position, the control makes contact sooner and takes the
maximum time to break contact. For shorter blower opera
tion, move the lever to the left-hand position.

*Rated heating input as manufactured with factory-installed burner orifices. Higher inputs shown for each size are the maximum rated
inputs using field-installed burner orifices.
NOTE: Shaded portions of the table are beyond the rated temperature rise range.
F. Airflow and Temperature Rise
The heating section is designed for operation within a tem
perature rise range of 35 to 70°F for units rated up to 75,000
Btuh input (except size 036075, 3-phase units), and within a
range of 45 to 75°F for units with inputs rated at 80,000
Btuh or higher.
Temperature rise is the difference of the air temperature in
the return duct and the air temperature in the discharge
duct at the unit.
Table VT shows the air delivery at various temperature rises
for both A.G.A.-certified input ratings for each size unit.
For heating operation, it is recommended that the airflow
.produces a temperature rise that falls within the range
stamped on the unit rating plate.
Refer to Section VIII, part B, of these instructions to deter
mine and adjust both the heating and cooling airflow.
G. Sequence of Operation (Heating)
The following sequence of operation pertains to model 585B,
208- or 230-V, 3-phase units; size 036075, 036125, 042100, or
048125; however, the sequence of operation of all other units
is very similar. Refer to the line-to-line wiring diagram in
Figure 13.
NOTE: Although the actual unit wiring may vary slightly
from that shown in Figure 13, the sequence of operation will
not be affected.
With the room thermostat SYSTEM switch in HEAT posi
tion and FAN switch in AUTO position, the sequence of
operation is as follows:
The energized pilot igniter 6F sends a high-voltage charge
to the pilot electrode 6H, producing a spark that ignites the
pilot flame. The pilot flame sensing monometal switch
proves the presence of the pilot flame. Approximately 40 to
60 seconds after the pilot flame is established, pilot 6H
switches its contacts, energizes the main gas valve 5F,
deenergizes the pilot igniter 6F, and deenergizes the “pick”
coil of the pilot solenoid. The main gas valve 5F is heat mo
tor operated; therefore, after approximately 10 seconds, the
main gas valve 5F opens permitting gas flow to the burners
where the gas is ignited by the pilot 6H.
When the room thermostat “call for heat” is satisfied, the
circuit between R and W through the room thermostat
breaks and gas flow through the main gas valve 5F is
stopped. The gas flow to pilot is also stopped and the pilot
flame goes out.
The 821 time-delay blower relay 2G is deenergized. There
will be a delay before the heating relay contacts 2G open.
When these contacts do open, the blower motor 3D2 is
deenergized.
The unit has now returned to a “standby” condition, waiting
for the next “call for heat” from the room thermostat.
H. Limit and Pressure Switch Operation
The furnace limit switch 7H (Figure 13) functions to shut off
the gas valve and main burner operation if the furnace leav
ing air temperature exceeds 175°F.
The pressure switch 7P (Figure 13) is only required when

the unit has been converted for propane gas operation. This
Model 585B is equipped with the intermittent RELITE-type
pilot that does not have a standing flame, gas flow to the
pilot gas valve portion of the main gas valve 5F when the
pilot gas cock is open. The unit is now in a “standby” condi
tion, ready for a “call for heat” from the room thermostat.
When the room thermostat “calls for heat,” control lead R is
connected to control lead W through the room thermostat.
The 821 time-delay blower relay 2G becomes energized
through lead W. After a short delay, during which time the
following burner ignition sequence of operation is com
pleted, the blower relay contacts 2G close and the circuit to
the blower motor 3D2 is completed. This circuit energizes
the blower motor 3D2, starting the blower.
The circuit between R and W through the room thermostat
simultaneously energizes the pilot gas valve portion of the
main gas valve 5F and the pilot igniter 6F. The energized
pilot gas valve portion of the main gas valve 5F permits gas
flow to the pilot 6H.
NOTE: The pilot gas valve portion of the main gas valve 5F
is a solenoid consisting of a “pick” and a “hold” coil. Both
coils must be energized to open the valve, but only the
“hold” coil must be energized to keep the pilot gas valve
open.
switch is part of the field-installed propane conversion kit.
See the conversion kit Installation Instructions for opera
tion of the pressure switch.
The normally closed furnace limit switch 7H completes the
control circuit through the W pigtail lead to the gas valve
5F. See Figure 13. Should the leaving air temperature rise to
175°F, the switch opens and the W control circuit is broken.
Any interruption in the control circuit through the W pig
tail lead to the gas valve instantly closes the gas valve and
stops gas flow to the burners and pilot.
The control circuit through the gas valve to the blower relay
2G is still closed and the blower motor 3D2 will continue to
run.
When the leaving air temperature drops to the limit switch
^ low-temperature setting, the switch closes, completing the
W control circuit. The electric-spark ignition system cycles
and the unit returns to normal heating operation.

A. Checking Components
Perform the following steps before starting the unit.
1. Check for correct position of condenser fan blade in unit
top panel. See Figure 3.
2. Leak-test all refrigerant circuit connections to make
certain that none has been damaged in shipment.
3. Check entire system for leaks at all connections, includ
ing evaporator coil located in blower compartment. (Use
electronic leak detector, halide torch, or liquid-soap
solution.)
NOTE: The cooling section is fully charged with refrigerant,
tested, and factory-sealed. There should be no need to
check refrigerant charge if no leaks were found. In rare
instances, when the refrigerant charge has been lost be
cause of a leak caused by shipping damage or a refrigerant
leak has been found, proceed as follows:

B. Evaporator Airflow & Airflow Adjustments
Model 585B units are equipped with a direct-drive blower
motor. Motor speeds have been factory-set for both heating
and cooling to deliver the proper airflow under normal static
pressures.
For cooling operation, the recommended evaporator airflow
is 350 to 450 ft^/min per 12,000 Btuh of cooling. For heating
operation, it is recommended that the airflow produce a tem
perature rise that falls within the range stamped on the unit
rating plate.

Table VII shows air delivery at various static pressures. Re
fer to these tables to determine the airflow.
are available for sizes 036075 through 060150, single-phase
units. For air delivery applicable to these units, refer to the
air delivery data in Table VII for the equivalent size 3-phase
unit. (Three-phase units have factory-installed high-static
blowers.)
2. Airflow Adjustments
WARNING: Disconnect all electrical power to the unit
before adjusting airflows.
Motor speed settings can be changed by changing motor lead
connections. The motor leads are color-coded as follows:
black = high speed
blue = medium speed
red = low speed
Sizes 018050, 024050, 036075, 036125, 042100, and 048125
single-phase units; and the 208/230-V, 3-phase version of
size 036075 have a 2-speed motor and
do not have the blue
lead for medium speed.
All 460-V units operate on the same speed for both heating
and cooling. Size 036075 460-V units have a 2-speed motor.
Size 048125 and 060125 460-V units have a 3-speed motor.
For all 208- and 230-V units, the motor lead connected to the
heating relay 2G determines the heating speed, and the mo

tor lead connected to the cooling relay 2C determines the
cooling speed. See the unit wiring label. To change the heat
ing and/or cooling speed, connect the appropriate colorcoded motor lead to the appropriate relay. Be sure to tape
unused motor lead(s).
When the same speed is desired for both heating and cooling
for 208- and 230-V units, connect the appropriate colorcoded motor lead to either relay and connect a field-supplied
jumper between the two relays.
For all 460-V units, the single motor lead connection to the
blower relay 2A determines the single motor speed for both
heating and cooling. See unit wiring label. To change the
single motor speed, connect the appropriate color-coded mo
tor lead to the blower relay 2A. Be sure to tape unused motor
lead(s).
C. Checking Unit Operation
Perform the following steps to make certain the unit is
operating properly:
1. Place thermostat SYSTEM switch in COOL position;
place FAN switch in AUTO position; set thermostat set
ting below room temperature. Observe that compressor,
condenser fan motor, and blower motor are all running.
Observe that all motors stop when thermostat is
satisfied.
CAUTION: Do mu tapid i'vi ’lo ci.inii)re.-;<or. .\llnw 5 minutes

damage.
2. Move thermostat fan switch to ON position. Observe
that blower fan runs continuously with thermostat set
above or below conditioned space temperature.
D. Sequence of Operation (Cooling)
The following sequence of operation pertains to Model 585B,
208- or 230-V, 3-phase units; sizes 036075, 036125, 042100,
or 048125; however, the sequence of operation of all units is
very similar. Refer to the line-to-line wiring diagram in
Figure 13.
NOTE: Although the actual unit wiring may vary slightly
from that shown in Figure 13, the sequence of operation will
not be affected.
With the room thermostat SYSTEM switch in COOL and
FAN switch in AUTO, the sequence of operation is as fol
lows:
When there is demand for cooling by the room thermostat,
terminal R “makes” to terminals Y and G through the ther
mostat. This circuit connects the compressor contactor coil
2D and cooling blower relay coil 2C across the 24-volt sec
ondary of the transformer IB to energize the compressor
contactor and blower relay. The contacts of the energized
blower relay 2C close, completing the circuit through the
single-phase blower motor 3D2, starting the motor in
stantly. The contacts of the energized compressor contactor

2D close and complete the circuit through the compressor
motor 3F and condenser fan motor 3D1, causing both motors
to start instantly.
All motors will continue to run and the cooling cycle will re
main “on” until the room thermostat is satisfied. When the
conditioned space temperature drops to the thermostat set
ting, the electrical connection from terminal R to terminals
Y and G is opened in the thermostat. This open circuit
deenergizes the compressor contactor coil 2D and the cooling
blower relay coil 2C. The blower, condenser, and compressor
motors will stop. The cooling will remain “off” until there is
another demand for cooling by the thermostat.

sary, send motor to an authorized motor repair shop.
C. Evaporator and Condenser Coils
CAUTION: Be SSUJrfeiSp'hlectt^^^
OFF before cleaning coils.
The coils are easily cleaned when they are dry; therefore,
they should be checked and cleaned before each cooling
season. The coils should be inspected periodically during the
cooling season.
If the coils are coated with dirt or lint, they should be
vacuumed with a vacuum cleaner’s soft brush attachment.
Be careful not to bend the fins. If the coils are coated with
oil or grease, they may be cleaned with a mild detergent and
water solution. Rinse coils with clear water. Be careful not
to splash water on motors, insulation, wiring, or filters.
D. Condensate Drain
The drain pan and condensate drain should be checked at the
same time the cooling coils are checked. Clean the drain pan
and condensate drain by removing any foreign matter from
the pan. Flush pan and drain tube with clear water. If the
drain tube is restricted, it can generally be cleared with
high-pressure water. If this does not work, try a “plumber’s
snake” or similar probe device.
E. Evaporator Blower
The blower should be inspected at least once each year. Re
move caked-on dirt from the blower wheel and housing with
brush; remove grease with mild solvent. Make sure blower is
centered in the blower housing.

position by loosening setscrews and moving fan up or down.
G. Electrical Controls and Wiring
With power disconnected to unit, check all electrical connec
tions for tightness. Tighten all screws on connections. If any
smoky or burned connections are noticed, disassemble the
connection, clean all parts, strip wire, and reassemble prop
erly and securely. Electrical controls are difficult to check
without proper instrumentation; therefore, reconnect
electrical power to unit and observe unit through one com
plete operating cycle. If there are any discrepancies in the
operating cycle, contact your Dealer and request service.
H. Refrigerant Circuit
The refrigerant circuit is difficult to check for leaks without
proper equipment. Therefore, if low-cooling performance is
suspected, contact your local Dealer for service.
I. Cleaning the Heating Section
Soot, lint, or dirt on the .heating section components visible
in Figure 7 should be cleaned off before each heating season.
To insure dependable and efficient heating operation, the
heat exchanger should be checked by a qualified mainte
nance person before each heating season, and cleaned when
necessary. This checkout should not be attempted by anyone
not having the required expertise and equipment to do the
job properly. Checking and^r cleaning the heat exchanger
involves removing the unit top, disconnecting various motor
leads, and when completed, reinstalling the top properly to
maintain a proper seal. Contact your local Dealer for the re
quired periodic maintenance.
