INTRODUCTION
The 657A units (see Fig. 1) are fully self-contained, and designed
for outdoor installation. See Figs. 2–5 for unit dimensions. All
units are shipped in a horizontal-discharge configuration for
installation on a ground-level slab. All units can be converted to
down-flow discharge configurations for rooftop applications. (See
Fig. 6 for roof curb dimensions.)
RECEIVING AND INSTALLATION
I. CHECK EQUIPMENT
A. IDENTIFY UNIT
The unit model number and serial number are stamped on the unit
identification plate. Check this information against shipping papers.
B. INSPECT SHIPMENT
Inspect for shipping damage while unit is still on shipping pallet.
If unit appears to be damaged or is torn loose from its anchorage,
have it examined by transportation inspectors before removal.
Fig. 3— 657A024-030 Unit Dimensions (with base rails)
Forward claim papers directly to transportation company. Manufacturer is not responsible for any damage incurred in transit.
Check all items against shipping list. Immediately notify the
nearest distributor if any item is missing. To prevent loss or
damage, leave all parts in original packages until installation.
II. PROVIDE UNIT SUPPORT
A. ROOF CURB & SLAB MOUNT
ROOF CURB - Install accessory roof curb in accordance with
instructions shipped with curb (See Fig. 6). Install insulation, cant
strips, roofing, and flashing. Ductwork must be attached to curb.
IMPORTANT: The gasketing of the unit to the roof curb is
critical for a watertight seal. Install gasketing material supplied
with the roof curb. Improperly applied gasketing also can result in
air leaks and poor unit performance.
Curb should be level to within 1/4 in (See Fig. 8). This is necessary
for unit drain to function properly. Refer to accessory roof curb
installation instructions for additional information as required.
SLAB MOUNT - Place the unit on a solid, level concrete pad that
is a minimum of 4 in. thick with 2 in. above grade (See Fig. 10).
The slab should extend approximately 2 in. beyond the casing on
all 4 sides of the unit. Install a 6-in. gravel apron in front of
Fig. 4— 657A036-060 Unit Dimensions (without base rails)
outdoor coil-air inlet to prevent obstruction of airflow by grass or
shrubs. Do not secure the unit to the slab except when required by
local codes.
III. PROVIDE CLEARANCES
The required minimum service clearances are shown in Fig. 2-5.
Adequate ventilation and outdoor air must be provided. The
outdoor fan pushes air through the outdoor coil and discharges it
through the louvers on the top cover, the decorative grille, and the
compressor access panel. Be sure that the fan discharge does not
recirculate to the outdoor coil. Do not locate the unit in either a
corner or under an overhead obstruction. The minimum clearance
under a partial overhang (such as a normal house overhang) is 48
in. above the unit top. The maximum horizontal extension of a
partial overhang must not exceed 48 in.
IMPORTANT: Do not restrict outdoor airflow. An air restriction
at either the outdoor-air inlet or the fan discharge may be
detrimental to compressor life.
Do not place the unit where water, ice, or snow from an overhang
or roof will damage or flood the unit. Do not install the unit on
carpeting or other combustible materials. Slab-mounted units
Fig. 5— 657A036-060 Unit Dimensions (with base rails)
should be at least 4 in. above the highest expected water and runoff
levels. Do not use unit if it has been under water.
IV. SELECT AND INSTALL DUCTWORK
The design and installation of the duct system must be in
accordance with the standards of the NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) for installation of nonresidence-type air conditioning and ventilating systems, NFPA90A or residence type,
NFPA90B; and/or local codes and residence-type, NFPA90B;
and/or local codes and ordinances. Select and size ductwork,
supply-air registers and return-air grilles according to ASHRAE
(American Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and Air Condition-
ing Engineers) recommendations. The unit has duct flanges on the
supply- and return-air openings on the side of the unit. See Fig. 2-5
for connection sizes and locations. When designing and installing
ductwork, consider the following:
CAUTION: When connecting ductwork to units, do not
drill deeper than 1/2–in. in shaded area shown or coil may
be damaged.
1. All units should have field-supplied filters or accessory
filter rack installed in the return-air side of the unit.
Recommended sizes for filters are shown in Table 1.
2. Avoid abrupt duct size increases and reductions. Abrupt
change in duct size adversely affects air performance.
IMPORTANT: Use flexible connectors between ductwork and
unit to prevent transmission of vibration. Use suitable gaskets to
ensure weathertight and airtight seal. When electric heat is
installed, use fireproof canvas (or similar heat resistant material)
connector between ductwork and unit discharge connection. If
flexible duct is used, insert a sheet metal sleeve inside duct. Heat
resistant duct connector (or sheet metal sleeve) should extend
24-in. from electric heater element.
3. Size ductwork for cooling air quantity (cfm). The minimum
air quantity for proper electric heater operation is listed in
Table 2. Heater limit switches may trip at air quantities
below those recommended.

for use with electric heat.
4. Insulate and weatherproof all external ductwork. Insulate
and cover with a vapor barrier all ductwork passing through
conditioned spaces. Follow latest Sheet Metal and Air
ConditioningContractorsNationalAssociation
(SMACNA) and Air Conditioning Contractors Association
(ACCA) minimum installation standards for residential
heating and air conditioning systems.
5. Secure all ducts to building structure. Flash, weatherproof,
and vibration-isolate duct openings in wall or roof according to good construction practices.
V. RIG AND PLACE UNIT
Use spreader bars or crate top when rigging the unit. The units
must be rigged for lifting as shown in Fig. 7. Use extreme caution
to prevent damage when moving the unit. Unit must remain in an
upright position during all rigging and moving operations. The unit
must be level for proper condensate drainage; the ground-level pad
or accessory roof curb must be level before setting the unit in
place. When a field-fabricated support is used, be sure that the
support is level and that it properly supports the unit.

5. AC/HP TIME DELAY (GRY) - Four motor operation delay
options are provided to customize system operation. See
listing below:
Unit Controls— All compressors have the following internalprotection controls.
1. High-Pressure Relief Valve - This valve opens when the
pressure differential between the low and high side becomes
excessive.
2. Compressor Overload - This overload interrupts power to
the compressor when either the current or internal temperature become excessive, and automatically resets when the
internal temperature drops to a safe level.
This overload may require up to 60 minutes (or longer) to
reset; therefore, if the internal overload is suspected of
being open, disconnect the electrical power to the unit and
check the circuit through the overload with an ohmmeter or
continuity tester.
I. COOLING SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
PSC BLOWER MOTOR UNITS (024–042)
NOTE: With the FAN switch in the ON position, 24-v is supplied
to the IFR through the G terminal on the thermostat. This voltage
energizes the coil of the contactor, closing the normally-open set of
contacts which provide continuous power to the indoor (evapora-
tor) fan motor (IFM). Moving the FAN switch back to the AUTO.
position, providing there is not a call for cooling, deenergizes the
IFR, opens the IFR contacts, and deenergizes the IFM. The FAN
switch in AUTO. position cycles upon a call for cooling.
On a call for cooling, 24 v is supplied to the compressor contactor
(C) and IFR simultaneously through the Y and G terminals of the
thermostat, respectively. On units with a compressor time delay
relay, there is a built-in, 5-minute (± 45 seconds) delay between
compressor starts. Energizing the contactor closes the normallyopen set of contacts supplying power to both the compressor and
outdoor (condenser) fan motor (OFM). Energizing the IFR closes
the normally-open set of contacts providing power to the IFM. On
the loss of the call for cooling, 24 v is removed from both the Y
and G terminals of the thermostat (providing the FAN switch is in
the AUTO. position), deenergizing both the contactor and IFR and
opening both the contacts supplying power to compressor/OFM
and IFM.
ECM BLOWER MOTOR UNITS (048–060)
Indoor Fan - With the fan switch in the ON position, 24-v is
supplied to the ECM motor through the ’’G’’ terminal on the
thermostat. This voltage provides continuous power to the indoor
(evaporator) fan motor (IFM). If the fan switch is moved back to
the AUTO position and there is not a call for heating or cooling,
24-v is removed from the ’’G’’ terminal and the indoor fan

AUTO, the fan cycles with either the call for heating or cooling.
Cooling- On a call for cooling, 24 v is supplied to the compressor
contactor (C) and IFM simultaneously through the ’’Y’’ and ’’G’’
terminals of the thermostat. Energizing the contactor closes the
normally open set of contacts supplying power to both the
compressor and outdoor (condenser) fan motor (OFM). On the loss
of the call for cooling, 24 v is removed from the ’’Y’’ and ’’G’’
terminals of the thermostat, deenergizing the compressor and
OFM. The indoor fan remains energized for the delay timing.
NOTE: Once the compressor has started and then stopped, it
cannot be restarted again until 5 minutes have elapsed.
J. HEATING SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
PSC BLOWER MOTOR UNITS (024–042)
Heat Pump Heating - On a call for heat, thermostat makes circuits
R-Y and R-G. When compressor time delay (5 +/- 2 minutes) is
completed, a circuit is made to C, starting COMP and OFM.
Circuit R-G also energizes IFR and starts IFM after 1-sec. delay.
Should room temperature continue to fall, circuit R-W is made
through second-stage thermostat bulb. If optional electric heat
package is used, a relay is energized, bringing on first bank of
supplemental electric heat. When thermostat is satisfied, contacts
open, deenergizing contactor and relay; motors and heaters deenergize. The IFM may be controlled by a time-delay relay that will
extend IFM operation for a matter of sec.
Defrost Mode - Defrost board (DB) is a time and temperature
control, which includes a field-selectable time period between
checks for defrost (30, 50 or 90 minutes). Electronic timer and
defrost cycle start only when contactor is energized and defrost
thermostat (DFT) is closed.
Defrost mode is identical to Cooling mode, except outdoor-fan
motor stops and a bank of optional electric heat turns on to warm
air supplying the conditioned space.
Auxiliary Heating - If accessory electric heaters are installed, on
a call for heat, circuit R-W is made through the thermostat
contacts. Circuit R-G is made which energizes the IFR. If the
heaters are staged, then the thermostat closes a second set of
contacts W2 when second stage is required. When thermostat is
satisfied, contacts open, deenergizing the heater relay and the IFR.
ECM BLOWER MOTOR UNITS (048–060)
Heat Pump Heating - On a call for heat, thermostat makes circuits
R-Y and R-G. When compressor time delay (5 +/- 2 minutes) is
completed, a circuit is made to C, starting COMP and OFM.
Circuit R-G also energizes IFR and starts IFM after 1-sec. delay.
Should room temperature continue to fall, circuit R-W is made
through second-stage thermostat bulb. If optional electric heat
package is used, a relay is energized, bringing on first bank of
supplemental electric heat. At this time, the airflow (CFM) will be
either the AUX HEAT RANGE (VIO) setting or the AC/HP SIZE
(BLU) setting, whichever is greater. This may be a noticeable
change in airflow. When thermostat is satisfied, contacts open,
deenergizing contactor and relay; motors and heaters deenergize.
The IFM has a time delay relay that keeps the fan on for 30-sec.
Defrost Mode - Defrost board (DB) is a time and temperature
control, which includes a field-selectable time period between
checks for defrost (30, 50 or 90 minutes). Electronic timer and
defrost cycle start only when contactor is energized and defrost
thermostat (DFT) is closed.
Defrost mode is identical to Cooling mode, except outdoor-fan
motor stops and a bank of optional electric heat turns on to warm
air supplying the conditioned space.
Auxiliary Heating - If accessory electric heaters are installed, on
a call for heat, circuits R-W and R-G are made through the
thermostat contacts, energizing the heater relay and IFM. If the
heaters are staged, then the thermostat closes the second set of
contacts, W2, when the second stage is required. When the
thermostat is satisfied, contacts open, deenergizing the heater relay
and the IFM.

D. OUTDOOR COIL, INDOOR COIL, AND CONDENSATE DRAIN PAN
Inspect the outdoor coil, indoor coil, and condensate drain pan at
least once each year. See Unit Top Removal section.
The coils are easily cleaned when dry; therefore, inspect and clean
the coils either before or after each cooling season. Remove all
obstructions, including weeds and shrubs, that interfere with the

grease, clean the coils with a mild detergent-and-water solution.
Rinse coils with clear water, using a garden hose. Be careful not to
splash water on motors, insulation, wiring, or air filter(s). For best
results, spray outdoor coil fins from inside to outside the unit. On
units with an outer and inner (2 row) outdoor coil, be sure to clean
between the coils. Be sure to flush all dirt and debris from the unit
base.
Inspect the drain pan and condensate drain line when inspecting
the coils. Clean the drain pan and condensate drain by removing all
foreign matter from the pan. Flush the pan and drain tube with
clear water. Do not splash water on the insulation, motor, wiring,
or air filter(s). If the drain tube is restricted, clear it with a
“plumbers snake” or similar probe device. Ensure that the auxiliary
drain port above the drain tube is also clear
airflow through the outdoor coil.
Straighten bent fins with a fin comb. If coated with dirt or lint,
clean the coils with a vacuum cleaner, using the soft brush
attachment. Be careful not to bend the fins. If coated with oil or

E. OUTDOOR FAN
CAUTION: Keep the outdoor fan free from all obstruc-
tions to ensure proper cooling operation. Never place
articles on top of the unit. Damage to unit may result.
1. Remove 2 screws at bottom of outdoor air intake grille and
remove plastic grille.
2. Inspect the fan blades for cracks or bends.
3. If fan needs to be removed, loosen the setscrew and slide
the fan off the motor shaft.
4. When replacing fan blade, position blade so that the leading
edge is 2-in. back from outdoor inlet grille or 1/2-in.
maximum fro fan deck (See Fig. 25).
5. Ensure that setscrew engages the flat area on the motor shaft
when tightening
6. Replace grille.
F. ELECTRICAL CONTROLS AND WIRING
Inspect and check the electrical controls and wiring annually. Be
sure to turn off the electrical power to the unit and install lockout
tag.
Remove the control/blower and compressor compartment access
panels to locate all the electrical controls and wiring. Check all
electrical connections for tightness. Tighten all screw connections.
If any smoky or burned connections are noticed, disassemble the
connection, clean all the parts, restrip the wire end and reassemble
the connection properly and securely.
After inspecting the electrical controls and wiring, replace the
access panel. Start the unit, and observe at least one complete
heating cycle and one complete cooling cycle to ensure proper
operation. If discrepancies are observed in either or both operating
cycles, or if a suspected malfunction has occurred, check each
electrical component with the proper electrical instrumentation.
Refer to the unit wiring label when making these checkouts.
NOTE: Refer to the heating and/or cooling sequence of operation
in this publication as an aid in determining proper control
operation

1. Hot gas from compressor flows through the 4-way valve and is
directed to the heating liquid line check valve. It is then condensedandsubcooledthroughconverging circuits. Refrigerant leaves
the outdoor coil by way of the strainer and the check valve in the
cooling liquid line.
2. The refrigerant then feeds the indoor coil through the Acutrol
metering device on each circuit.

G. REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT
Inspect all refrigerant tubing connections and the unit base for oil
accumulations annually. Detecting oil generally indicates a refrigerant leak.
WARNING: System under pressure. Relieve pressure
and recover all refrigerant before system repair or final
unit disposal to avoid personal injury or death. Use all
service ports and open all flow-control devices, including
solenoid valves.

I. METERING DEVICE — ACUTROL DEVICE
This unit uses metering devices that are of the fixed orifice type
(located in the header to the indoor and outdoor coils).
J. LIQUID LINE STRAINER
The liquid line strainer (to protect metering device) is made of wire
mesh and located in the liquid line on the inlet side of the metering
device.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If oil is detected or if low cooling performance is suspected,
leak-test all refrigerant tubing using an electronic leak-detector,
halide torch, or liquid-soap solution. If a refrigerant leak is
detected, refer to Check for Refrigerant Leaks section.
If no refrigerant leaks are found and low cooling performance is
suspected, refer to Checking and Adjusting Refrigerant Charge
section.
H. INDOOR AIRFLOW
The heating and/or cooling air-flow does not require checking
unless improper performance is suspected. If a problem exists, be
sure that all supply- and return-air grilles are open and free from
obstructions, and that the air filter is clean. When necessary, refer
to Indoor Airflow and Airflow Adjustments section to check the
system airflow.
