Installation and servicing of air conditioning equipment
can be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical components. Only trainedandqualified service personnel should
install, repair or service air conditioning equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance functions of cleaning coils and filters and replacing filters. All
other operations should be performed by trained service personnel. When working on air conditioning equipment, observe precautions in the literature, tags and labels attached
to the unit, and other safety precautions that may apply.
Follow all safetycodes. Wearsafety glasses andwork gloves.
Use quenching cloth for unbrazing operations. Have fire extinguisher available for all brazing operations.
Before performing service or maintenance operations on
unit, turn offmain power switch to unit. Electrical shock
could cause personal injury.
INSTALLATION
Unit is shipped in the vertical configuration. To convert to
horizontal configuration, remove side duct opening covers.
Using the same screws, install covers on vertical duct openings with the insulation-side down. Seals around duct openings must be tight.
IMPORTANT: An external filter kit MUST be used,
or the filters MUST be field-installed outside the unit
on horizontal applications with accessory economizer
or two-position damper. Otherwise, the economizer or
two-position must be partially removed to access the
filters. The area of the field-installed filters should be
equal to the area of the factory-installed filters.
Step 1 — Provide Unit Support
ROOF CURB — Assemble and install accessory roof curb
in accordance with instructions shipped with curb. See
Fig. 1. Install insulation, cant strips, roofing and counter flashing as shown. Ductwork must be attached to curb, not to theunit. If electric or control power is to be routed through the
curb, attach the accessory thru-the-curb service connection
plates to the roof curb in accordance with the accessory installation instructions. Connection plates must be installed
before unit is set in roof curb.
IMPORTANT: The gasketing of the unit to the roof
curb is critical for a watertight seal. Install gasket supplied with the roof curb as shown in Fig. 1. Improperly applied gasket also can result in air leaks and poor
unit performance.
Curb should be level. Unit leveling tolerances are shown
in Fig. 2. This is necessary for unit drain to function properly. Refer to Accessory Roof Curb Installation Instructions
for additional information as required.
SLAB MOUNT (Horizontal Units Only) — Provide a level
concrete slab that extends a minimum of 152 mm (6 in.) beyond unit cabinet. The slab should be 203 mm (8 in.) thick
with 102 mm (4 in.) above grade. Install a gravel apron in
front of outdoor coil air inlet to prevent grass and foliage
from obstructing airflow. In areas where high snowfall
occurs, increase height of slab to ensure that snow does not
block coil.
NOTE: Horizontal units may be installed on a roof curb if
required.
Step 2 — Field Fabricate Ductwork — On verti-
cal discharge units, secure all ducts to roof curb and building
structure. Do not connect ductwork to unit. For horizontal
applications, field-supplied flanges should be attached to horizontal discharge openings and all ductwork attached to the
flanges. Insulate and weatherproof all external ductwork, joints
and roof openings with counter flashing and mastic in accordance with applicable codes.
Ducts passing through an unconditioned space must be
insulated and covered with a vapor barrier.
If a plenum return is used on a vertical unit, the return
should be ducted through the roof deck to comply with applicable fire codes.
Aminimumclearance to combustibles is not required around
ductwork on vertical discharge units. On horizontal discharge units, a minimum clearance of 25 mm (one in.) is
required for the first 305 mm (12 in.) of ductwork.
Cabinet return-air static shall not exceed −87 Pa
(−.35 in. wg) with economizer or −112Pa (−.45 in. wg) without economizer.
Manufacturer reserves the right to discontinue, or change at any time, specifications or designs without notice and without incurring obligations.

Step 3 — Make Field Connection for CondensateDisposal —
See Fig. 3. A3⁄4-in. FPT connection is located on the side of
the unit. Use a trap at least 100 mm (4 in.) deep, and protect
against freeze-up.
If drain line is run to a drain, pitch line away from unit at
25 mm (one in.) per 3 m (10 ft) of run. Do not use a pipe size
smaller than the unit connection.
Units must have an external trap added.
Step4 — Rig andPlace Unit — Inspect unit for trans-
portation damage. File any claim with transportation agency.
Keep unit upright and do not drop. Spreader bars are not
required if top crating is left on unit. Rollers may be used to
move unit across a roof. Level by using unit frame as a reference. See Tables 1A and 1B and Fig. 4 for additional information. Operating weight is shown in Tables 1A and 1B
and Fig. 4.
Lifting holes are provided in base rails as shown in
Fig. 4 and 5. Refer to rigging instructions on unit.
All panels must be in place when rigging.
POSITIONING — Maintain clearance around and above unit
to provide proper air flow and service access. See Fig. 5.
Position unit on roof curb so that the following clearances
are maintained; 6 mm (
1
⁄4in.) clearance between roof curb
and base rails on each side and front of unit: 29 mm (15⁄
in.) clearance between roof curb and rear of unit (see Fig. 1,
section C-C).
Do not install unit in an indoor location. Do not locate
unit air inlet near exhaust vents or other sources of contaminated air.
Although unit is weatherproof, guard against water from
higher level runoff and overhangs.
After unit is in position, remove polyethylene shipping wrapper and rigging skid.

Step 5 — Make Electrical Connections
Unit cabinet must have uninterrupted, unbroken electrical ground to minimize the possibility of personal
injury if an electrical fault should occur. This ground
may consist of electrical wire connected to unit ground
lug in control compartment, or conduit approved for electrical ground when installed in accordance with U.S.A.
National Electrical Code (Ref: ANSI/NFPA 70-1987)
or equivalent local electrical codes. Failure to follow this
warning could result in the installer being liable for personal injury of others.
FIELD POWER SUPPLY — Pigtails are provided for field
wire connections. Use factory-supplied splices or copper/
aluminum connector.
When installing units, provide a disconnect per local codes.
All field wiring must comply with local requirements.
Install conduit through side panel openings. For units without electric heat, install conduit between disconnect and control box. Install power lines to terminal connections as shown
in Fig. 6. For units with electric resistance heat, refer to Table
2 to determine appropriate power wiring figure (Fig.7-13)
and route lines as indicated in appropriate figure.
Voltage to compressor terminals during operation must be
within voltage range indicated on unit nameplate (also see
Table 2). On 3-phase units, voltages between phases must be
balanced within 2% and the current within 10%. Use the formula shown in Table 2, Note 3 to determine the % voltage
imbalance. Operation on improper line voltage or excessive
phase imbalance constitutes abuse and may cause damage to
electrical components. Such operation would invalidate any
applicable Carrier warranty.
When electric heat is installed, remove knockouts for appropriate size conduit from unit block-off panel and single
point box. Install conduit (rigid or electro-metallic tubing)
through conduit drip boot as shown in Fig. 14. Drip boot
eliminates the need for water tight conduit fittings at the single
point box. Refer to Fig. 15 for component locations.

START-UP
IMPORTANT:Energizecrankcase heaters 24 hours prior
to base unit start-up to remove entrapped refrigerant
from the oil. Heaters are energized as long as there is
power to the unit.
Unit Preparation — Make sure that unit has been in-
stalled in accordance with these installation instructions and
applicable codes.
Return-Air Filters — Make sure correct filters are in-
stalled in unit (see Tables 1A and 1B). Do not operate unit
without return-air filters.
Compressor Mounting — Compressors are inter-
nally spring mounted. Do not loosen or remove compressor
holddown bolts.
Internal Wiring — Check all electrical connections in
unit control boxes; tighten as required.
Refrigerant Service Ports — Each refrigerant sys-
tem has 3 Schrader-type service gage ports: one on the suction line, one on the liquid line and one on the compressor
discharge line. Be sure that caps on the ports are tight.
Cooling — To start unit, turn on main power supply. Set
system selector switch at COOL position and fan switch at
AUTO. position. Adjust thermostat to a setting below room
temperature. Compressor starts on closure of contactor.
Check unit charge. Refer to Refrigerant Charge section on
page 20.
Reset thermostat at a position above room temperature.
Compressor will shut off.
TO SHUT OFF UNIT — Set system selector switch at OFF
position. Resetting thermostat at a position above room temperature shuts unit off temporarily until space temperature
exceeds thermostat setting.
Heating — To start unit, turn on main power supply.
Set thermostat at HEATposition and a setting above room
temperature, fan at AUTO. position.
First stage of thermostat energizes Compressor no. 1 and
Compressor no. 2; second stage energizes the electric heat
(where applicable). Check heating effectsat air supply grille(s).
If unit does not energize, reset limit switch (located on
indoor-fan scroll) by depressing button located between terminals on the switch.
TO SHUT OFF UNIT — Set system selector switch at OFF
position. Resetting heating selector lever below room temperature will shut unit off temporarily until the space temperature falls below thermostat setting.
Safety Relief — A soft-solder joint at the suction line
fitting provides pressure relief under abnormal temperature
and pressure conditions.
Ventilation (Continuous Fan) — Set fan and sys-
tem selector switches at ON and OFF positions, respectively. Indoor fan operates continuously to provide constant
air circulation.
Operating Sequence (See Fig. 20)
COOLING — With accessory economizer — Upon a re-
quest for cooling from the space thermostat, terminals Y1
and G will be energized with 24 v.As a result, the indoor-fan
contactor (IFC), indoor-fan motor (IFM), and reversing valve
solenoids (RVS1 and RVS2) will be energized and the
economizer damper blade will open to minimum position.
Note that if the indoor fan is on when the space thermostat
calls for cooling, terminal G is already energized and the
economizer damper blade is at minimum position.
If the outdoor-air temperature is below the outdoor-airthermostat (OAT) setting, then the position of the damper blade
will be determined by the temperature of the discharge air as
sensed by the discharge-air thermistor (DAT). The damper
blade will slide open for 5 seconds, and rest for 30 seconds
until the proper discharge-air temperature is obtained. The
damper blade will modulate to different positions to maintain this discharge-air temperature.
If the thermostat calls for a second stage of cooling
by supplying 24 v to Y2, the outdoor-fan contactor (OFC)
and Compressor contactor no. 1 (C1) will be energized,
which will bring on the outdoor fan and Compressor no. 1,
respectively.
When the thermostat is satisfied, Y2 will be deenergized
first, which will deenergize the outdoor fan and Compressor
no. 1. When the indoor fan is deenergized, the economizer
will return to a fully closed position.
If the outdoor-air temperature is above the OAT setting,
the economizer will move to the minimum position and the
unit will operate as described in Cooling, Units Without
Accessory Economizer section below.
Without accessory economizer — Upon a request for cooling from the space thermostat, terminals Y1 and G will be
energized with 24 v. As a result, the indoor-fan contactor
(IFC), outdoor-fan contactor (OFC) and Compressor contactor no. 1 (C1) will be energized, which in turn will energize the indoor fan, outdoor fan and Compressor no. 1,
respectively.
If the space thermostat calls for a second stage of cooling
by supplying 24 v to Y2, Compressor contactor no. 2 (C2)
will be energized, thus energizing Compressor no. 2.
When the space thermostat is satisfied, Y2 will be deenergized first, which will deenergize Compressor no. 2.
Upon a further drop in space temperature, Y1 will be deenergized which will deenergize Compressor no. 1, and the
outdoor and indoor fans.
HEATING — Upon a request for heating from the space thermostat, terminal W1 will be energized with 24 v. On units
with economizer, the economizer damper blade will move to
minimum position regardless of the outdoor-air temperature, and the unit will operate as described in Cooling, Without Accessory Economizer section above. The IFC, OFC,
C1 and C2 will be energized. The reversing valves switch
position and the indoor fan, outdoor fan, Compressor no. 1,
and Compressor no. 2 are energized.
If the space temperature continues to fall while W1 is energized, W2 will be energized with 24 v, and the heater contactor(s) (HC) willbe energized, which will energize the electric
heater(s).
When the space thermostat is satisfied, W2 will be deenergized first, and theelectric heater(s) willbe
deenergized.
Upon a further rise in space temperature, W1 will be deenergized,and the reversing valve solenoids (RVS1and RVS2)
will be energized. On units with economizer, the economizer damper blade will move to the fully closed position.
DEFROST — When the temperature of the outdoor coil drops
below 28 F as sensed by the defrost thermostat (DFT2) and
the defrost timer is at the end of a timed period
(adjustable at 30, 50 or 90 minutes). RVS1 and RVS2 are
energized and the OFC is deenergized. This switches the

NOTES:
1. In heating mode, economizer damper blade will move to the minimum position, and unit will operate as described for units without
economizer, regardless of outdoor air temperature.
2. The temperatures given in the graph are for demonstration purposes only and may vary depending on which thermostat is used.

position of the reversing valves and shuts off the outdoor
fan. The electric heaters (if installed) will be energized. On
units with economizer,the economizer damperblade will move
to the fully closed position.
The unit continues to defrost until the coil temperature as
measured by DFT2 reaches 65 F or the duration of defrost
cycle completes a 10-minute period.
During the defrost mode, if circuit 1 defrosts first, RVS1
will oscillate between heating and cooling modes until the
defrost mode is complete.
At the end of the defrost cycle, the electric heaters (if installed) will be deenergized; the reversing valves switch and
the outdoor-fan motor will be energized. On units with economizer, the economizer damper blade will move to the minimum position. The unit will now operate in the heating mode.
If the space thermostat is satisfied during a defrost cycle,
the unit will continue in the defrost mode until the time or
temperature constraints are satisfied.
SERVICE
When servicing unit, shut off all electrical power to unit
to avoid shock hazard or injury from rotating parts.
Cleaning — Inspect unit interior at the beginning of each
heating and cooling season and as operating conditions
require.

INDOOR COIL
1. Turn unit power off. Remove indoor coil access panel.
2. If accessory economizer is installed, remove economizer
by disconnecting Molex plug and removing economizer
mounting screws. Refer to Accessory Economizer Installation Instructions for more details.
3. Slide filters out of unit.
4. Clean coil using a commercial coil cleaner or dishwasher
detergent in a pressurized spray canister.Washboth sides
of coil and flush with clean water. For best results, backflush toward return-air section to remove foreign
material.
coil annually, and as required by location and outdoor air
conditions.
2-Row Coils— Clean coil as follows:
1. Turn off unit power.
2. Remove top panel screws on outdoor-coil end of unit.
3. Remove outdoor-coil corner post. See Fig. 21. To hold
top panel open, place coil corner post between top panel
and center post. See Fig. 22.
4. Remove device holding coil sections together at return
end of outdoor coil. Carefully separate the outer coil section 75 to 100 mm (3 to 4 in.) from the inner section. See
Fig. 23.
5. Use a water hose or other suitable equipment to flush down
between the 2 coil sections to remove dirt and debris. Clean
the outer surfaces with a stiff brush in the normal manner.

CONDENSATE DRAIN — Check and clean each year at
start of cooling season. In winter, keep drain dry or protect
against freeze-up.
FILTERS — Clean or replace at start of each heating and
cooling season, or more often if operating conditions require
it. Replacement filters must be same dimensions as original
filters.
OUTDOOR-AIR INLET SCREENS — Clean screens with
steam or hot water and a mild detergent. Do not use disposable filters in place of screens.
Lubrication
COMPRESSORS — Each compressor is charged with correct amount of oil at the factory.
FAN-MOTOR BEARINGS — Fan motor bearings are of
the permanently-lubricated type. No further lubrication is
required. No lubrication of outdoor- or indoor-fan motors is
required.
Outdoor-Fan Adjustment (Fig. 24)
Refrigerant Charge — Amount of refrigerant charge
is listed on the unit nameplate (also refer to Tables 1A and
1B). Refer to Carrier Standard Service Techniques Manual,
Chapter 1, Refrigerants section.
Unit panels must be in place when unit is operating dur-
ing charging procedure.
LOW CHARGE HEATING OR NO CHARGE — Use stand-
ard evacuating techniques. After evacuating system, weigh
in the specified amount of refrigerant (refer to Tables 1A and
1B).
LOW CHARGE COOLING — Use Cooling Charging Chart,
Fig. 25 and 26. Vary refrigerant until the conditions of the
chart are met. Note the charging chart is different from type
normally used. Chart is based on charging the units to the
correct superheat for the various operating conditions. Accurate pressure gage and temperature sensing device are required. Connect the pressure gage to the service port on the
suction line. Mount the temperature sensing device on the
suction line and insulate is so that outdoor ambient temperature does not affect the reading. Indoor-air L/s (cfm) must be
within the normal operating range of the unit.
TO USE COOLING CHARGING CHART— Take the outdoor ambient temperature and read the suction pressure gage.
Refer to chart to determine what suction temperature should
be. If suction temperature is high, add refrigerant. If suction
temperature is low, carefully blow some of the charge. Recheck the suction pressure as charge is adjusted.
