Air-handling equipment is designed to provide safe and reliable service when operated within design specifications. To
avoid injury to personnel and damage to equipment or property
when operating this equipment, use good judgment and follow
safe practices as outlined below.
DANGER
NEVER enter an enclosed fan cabinet or reach into a unit
while the fan is running.
LOCK OPEN AND TAG the fan motor power disconnect
switch before working on a fan. Take fuses with you and
note removal on tag. Electric shock can cause personal
injury or death.
LOCK OPEN AND TAG the electric heat coil power disconnect switch before working on or near heaters.
Failure to follow these warnings could lead to personal
injury or death.
WARNING
CHECK the assembly and component weights to be
sure that the rigging equipment can handle them safely.
Note also, the centers of gravity and any specific rigging
instructions.
CHECK for adequate ventilation so that fumes will not
migrate through ductwork to occupied spaces when welding or cutting inside air-handling unit cabinet or plenum.
WHEN STEAM CLEANING COILS be sure that the area
is clear of personnel.
DO NOT attempt to handle access covers and removable
panels on outdoor units when winds are strong or gusting
until you have sufficient help to control them. Make sure
panels are properly secured while repairs are being made to
a unit.
DO NOT remove access panel fasteners until fan is completely stopped. Pressure developed by a moving fan can
cause excessive force against the panel which can injure
personnel.
DO NOT work on dampers until their operators are
disconnected.
BE SURE that fans are properly grounded before working
on them.
Failure to follow these warnings could result in personal
injury or equipment damage.
Manufacturer reserves the right to discontinue, or change at any time, specifications or designs without notice and without incurring obligations.

1. Check items received against packing list.
2. Do not stack unit components or accessories during storage. Stacking can cause damage or deformation.
3. If unit is to be stored for more than 2 weeks prior to installation, observe the following precautions:
a. Choose a dry storage site that is reasonably level
and sturdy to prevent undue stress or permanent
damage to the unit structure or components. Do not
store unit on vibrating surface. Damage to stationary bearings can occur. Set unit off ground if in
heavy rain area.
b. Remove all fasteners and other small parts from
jobsite to minimize theft. Tag and store parts in a
safe place until needed.
c. Cover entire unit with a tarp or plastic coverall.
Extend cover under unit if stored on ground.
Secure cover with adequate tiedowns or store
indoors. Be sure all coil connections have protective shipping caps.
d. Monthly — Remove tarp from unit, enter fan
section through access door or through fan inlet,
and rotate fan and motor slowly by hand to redistribute the bearing grease and to prevent bearing
corrosion.
Rigging — Do not remove shipping skids or protective
covering until unit is ready for final placement. Use slings and
spreader bars as applicable to lift unit. Do not lift unit by coil
connections or headers.
Do not remove protective caps from coil piping connections
until ready to connect piping.
Do not remove protective cover or grease from fan shaft un-
til ready to install sheave.
Lay rigid temporary protection such as plywood walkways
in unit to prevent damage to insulation or bottom panel during
installation.
Shipping Bolt and Screw Removal (36SH
Unit) —
and screws are removed and all other bolts and screws are
tight. The red hold-down shipping bolts are located on both
sides of the blower/motor mounting rails and are accessible
through the side access panels. The red sheet metal screws are
located on the discharge duct collar. All red bolts and screws
must be removed for the blower assembly to be isolated from
the cabinet. See Fig. 14.
On 39SH units ensure that all red shipping bolts
Unit Suspension (39SH and 39SM Units) —
Acceptable forms of unit suspension are shown in Fig. 15. A
field-supplied platform mount is recommended, especially for
larger unit sizes. Units can also be supported by suspending the
unit from crossbeams at the joint between each unit component. Since the 39SM units lack a baserail, support members
should also be placed along the airway length of the unit in
order to prevent buckling. Ensure that suspension rods are
secured to adequately support the unit and that the rods extend
entirely through their associated fasteners.
All 39SH units have
top and base panels for suspension rods to pass through, locat-
1
ed 3
/2 in. in from the corners on the center line. It is recom-
mended that an angle iron or Unistrut framing system be used
7
/8 in. knockouts in each corner of their
under the unit for support (these support pieces should extend
approximately 1 in. beyond each end of the unit width).
NOTE: Locate suspension rods so they do not block access
panels or interfere with the electrical, mechanical, or drain
functions of unit.
Service Clearance — Provide adequate space for unit
service access (fan shaft and coil removal, filter removal, motor access, damper linkage access, etc.)
Condensate Drain — To prevent excessive build-up of
condensate in drain pan, adequate trap clearance (trap depth)
must be provided beneath the unit as indicated in Fig. 16. See
Installation, Condensate Drain section for additional details.
External Vibration Isolators — Install vibration
isolators per certified drawings, and in accordance with the job
specifications and the instructions of the vibration isolator
manufacturer. The coil piping must be isolated or have a flexible connection to avoid coil header damage because of unit
motion. A flexible connection should be installed at the fan
discharge.
Figure 15 shows isolation locations for overhead suspension
of unit.

Factory-supplied drives are prealigned and tensioned, however,
Carrier recommends that the belt tension and alignment be
checked before starting the unit. Always check the drive alignment after adjusting belt tension.
When field installing or replacing sheaves, install sheaves
on fan shaft and motor shaft for minimum overhang. (See
Fig. 48.) Use care when mounting sheave on fan shaft; too
much force may damage bearing. Remove rust-preventative
coating or oil from shaft. Make sure shaft is clean and free of
burrs. Add grease or lubricant to bore of sheave before
installing.
ALIGNMENT — Make sure that fan shafts and motor shafts
are parallel and level. The most common causes of misalignment are nonparallel shafts and improperly located
sheaves. Where shafts are not parallel, belts on one side are
drawn tighter and pull more than their share of the load. As a
result, these belts wear out faster, requiring the entire set to be
replaced before it has given maximum service. If misalignment
is in the sheave, belts will enter and leave the grooves at an
angle, causing excessive belt cover and sheave wear.
1. Shaft alignment can be checked by measuring the
distance between the shafts at 3 or more locations. If the
distances are equal, then the shafts will be parallel.
2. Check alignment of sheaves:
Fixed sheaves
sheaves on the shafts, a straightedge or a piece of string
can be used. If the sheaves are properly lined up the string
will touch them at the points indicated by the arrows in
Fig. 49.
Adjustable sheave
sheave on shaft, make sure that the centerlines of both
sheaves are in line and parallel with the bearing support
channel. See Fig. 49. Adjustable pitch drives are installed
on the motor shaft.
— To check the location of the fixed
— To check the location of adjustable
CAUTION
With adjustable sheave, do not exceed maximum fan rpm.
3. Rotating each sheave a half revolution will determine
whether the sheave is wobbly or the drive shaft is bent.
Correct any misalignment.

NOTE: There should be a
1
/8-in. to 1/4-in. gap between
the mating part hub and the bushing flange. If gap is
closed, the bushing is probably the wrong size.
5. With taper-lock bushed hubs, be sure the bushing bolts
are tightened evenly to prevent side-to-side pulley wobble. Check by rotating sheaves and rechecking sheave
alignment.
6. To determine correct belt tension, use the deflection
formula given below and the tension data from Fig. 50 as
follows:

Given
Belt Span16 in.
Belt Cross-Section A, Super Belt
Small Sheave Pitch Diameter5 in.

2.
Deflection =
3. Increase or decrease belt tension until force required for
1
/4-in. deflection is 51/2 lb.

Check belt tension at least twice during first operating
day. Readjust as required to maintain belt tension within
the recommended range.
With correct belt tension, belts may slip and squeal
momentarily on start up. This slippage is normal and disappears after unit reaches operating speed. Excessive belt tension
shortens belt life and may cause bearing and shaft damage.
After run-in, set belt tension at lowest tension at which belts
will not slip during operation.
Install V-Belts — When installing or replacing belts, al-
waysuse a complete set of new belts. Mixing old and new belts
will result in the premature wear or breakage of the newer
belts.
1. Always adjust the motor position so that V-belts can be
installed without stretching over grooves. Forcing belts
can result in uneven stretching and a mismatched set of
belts.
2. Do not allow belt to bottom out in sheave.
3. Tighten belts by turning motor-adjusting jackscrews.
Turn each jackscrew an equal number of turns.
4. Equalize belt slack so that it is on the same side of belt for
all belts. Failure to do so may result in uneven belt
stretching.
5. Tension new drives at the maximum deflection force
recommended (Fig. 50).

2. Flash trap may be used if pressure differential between steam
and condensate return exceeds 5 psi.
3. When a bypass with control is required.
4. Dirt leg may be replaced with a strainer. If so, tee on drop can
be replaced by a reducing ell.
5. The petcock is not necessary with a bucket trap or any trap
which has provision for passing air. The great majority of high
or medium pressure returns end in hot wells or deaerators
which vent the air.

GENERAL — Use straps around the coil casing to lift and
place the coil.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the coil or coil headers: Do not use
the headers to lift the coil. Support the piping and coil connections independently. Do not use the coil connections to
support piping. When tightening coil connections, use a
backup wrench on the nozzles.
Piping practices are outlined in the Carrier System Design
Manual, Part 3, Piping Design.
WATER COILS — Typically, coils are piped by connecting
the supply at the bottom and the return at the top. This is not always the case, especially if the coil hand has been changed in
the field. Coils must be piped for counterflow; otherwise, a capacity reduction of 5% for each coil row will result. To ensure
counterflow, chilled water coils are piped so that the coldest
water meets the coldest air. Hot water coils are piped so that the
warmest water meets the warmest air. Some 39S coils have 3
connections on either side of the coil (for a total of 6 connections). In these cases, the middle connection is used as the re-
For coils used in tempering service, or to preheat outside air,
install an immersion thermostat in the condensate line ahead of
the trap. This will shut down the supply fan and close the outdoor damper whenever the condensate falls to a predetermined
point, perhaps 120 F.
NOTE: Do NOT use an immersion thermostat to override a
duct thermostat and open the steam supply valve.
For vacuum return systems, the vacuum breaking check
valve would be piped into the condensate line between the trap
and the gate valve instead of open to the atmosphere.
Figure 53 illustrates the typical piping at the end of every
steam supply main. Omitting this causes many field problems
and failed coils.
Figure 54 shows the typical field piping of multiple coils.
Use this only if the coils are the same size and have the same
pressure drop. If this is not the case, an individual trap must be
provided for each coil.
Figure 55 shows a multiple coil arrangement applied to a
gravity return, including the open air relief to the atmosphere,
which DOES NOT replace the vacuum breakers.
Figure 56 illustrates the basic condensate lift piping.
turn connection. See Fig. 51.
STEAM COILS — Position the steam supply connection at
the top of the coil, and the return (condensate) connection at the
bottom.
Figure 52 illustrates the normal piping components and the
suggested locations for high, medium, or low-pressure steam
coils. The low-pressure application (zero to 15 psig) can
dispense with the ¼-in. petcock for continuous venting located
above the vacuum breaker (check valve).
Note the horizontal location of the 15-degree check valve,
and the orientation of the gate/pivot. This valve is intended to
relieve any vacuum forming in the condensate outlet of a
condensing steam coil, and to seal this port when steam
pressure is again supplied to the coil. It must not be installed in
any other position, and should not be used in the supply line.
29
NOTES:
1. Flange or union is located to facilitate coil removal.
2. To prevent water hammer, drain coil before admitting steam.
3. Do not exceed one foot of lift between trap discharge and
return main for each pound of pressure differential.
4. Do not use this arrangement for units handling outside air.

Following the piping diagrams in Fig. 52-56, make all con-
nections while observing the following precautions:
•Install a drip line and trap on the pressure side of the
inlet control valve. Connect the drip line to the return
line downstream of the return line trap.
•To prevent scale or foreign matter from entering the control valve and coil, install a
3
/32-in. mesh strainer in the
steam supply line upstream from the control valve.
•Provide air vents for the coils to eliminate noncondensable gases.
•Select a control valve according to the steam load, not
the coils supply connection size. Do not use an oversized
control valve.
•Do not use bushings that reduce the size of the header
return connection. The return connection should be the
same size as the return line and reduced only at the
downstream trap.
•To lift condensate above the coil return line into overhead steam mains, or pressurized mains, install a pump
and receiver between the condensate trap and the
pressurized main. Do not try to lift condensate with
modulating or on-and-off steam control valves. Use only
15-degree check valves, as they open with a lower water
head. Do not use 45-degree or vertical-lift check valves.
•Use float and thermostatic traps. Select the trap size
according to the pressure difference between the steam
supply main and the return main.
•Load variations can be caused by uneven inlet air distribution or temperature stratification.
•Drain condensate out of coils completely at the end of
the heating season to prevent the formation of acid.
Coil Freeze-Up Protection
WATER COILS — If a chilled water coil is applied with outside air, provisions must be made to prevent coil freeze-up.
Install a coil freeze-up thermostat to shut down the system if
any air temperature below 36 F is encountered entering the
water coil. Follow thermostat manufacturer’s instructions.
When a water coil is applied downstream of a directexpansion (DX) coil, a freeze-up thermostat must be installed
between the DX and water coil and electrically interlocked to
turn off the cooling to prevent freeze-up of the water coil.
For outdoor-air application where intermittent chilled water
coil operation is possible, one of the following steps should be
taken:
•Install an auxiliary blower heater in cabinet to maintain
above-freezing temperature around coil while unit is
shut down.
•Drain coils and fill with an ethylene glycol solution suit-
able for the expected cold weather operation. Shut down
the system and drain coils. See Service section, Winter
Shutdown.
STEAM COILS — When used for preheating outdoor air in
pressure or vacuum systems, an immersion thermostat to control outdoor-air damper and fan motor is recommended. This
control is actuated when steam supply fails or condensate temperature drops below an established level, such as 120 to 150 F.
A vacuum breaker should also be used to equalize coil pressure
with the atmosphere when steam supply throttles close. Steam
should not be modulated when outdoor air is below 40 F.
On low-pressure and vacuum steam-heating systems, the
thermostat may be replaced by a condensate drain with a thermal element. This element opens and drains the coil when condensate temperature drops below 165 F. Note that condensate
drains are limited to 5 psig pressure.
INNER DISTRIBUTING TUBE STEAM COILS — The
inner distributing tube (IDT) steam coil used in the 39S airhandling units has an inner tube pierced to facilitate the distribution of the steam along the tube's length. The outer tubes are
expanded into plate fins. The completed assembly includes the
supply and condensate header and side casings which are built
to slant the fin/tube bundle back toward the condensate header.
The slanting of the assembly ensures that condensate will flow
toward the drains. This condensate must be removed through
the return piping to prevent premature failure of the coil. The
fin/tube bundle is slanted vertically for horizontal airflow coils,
and horizontally for vertical airflow coils.
IDT Steam Coil Piping
— The following piping guidelines
will contribute to efficient coil operation and long coil life:
1. Use full size coil outlets and return piping to the steam
trap. Do not bush return outlet to the coil. Run full size to
the trap, reduce at the trap.
2. Use float and thermostatic (F & T) traps only for condensate removal. Trap size selection should be based on the
difference in pressure between the steam supply main and
the condensate return main. It is good practice to select a
trap with 3 times the condensate rating of the coil to
which it is connected.
3. Use thermostatic traps for venting only.
4. Use only
1
/2-in., 15-degree swing check valves installed
horizontally, piped open to atmosphere, and located at
least 12 in. above the condensate outlet. Do not use
45-degree, vertical lift and ring check valves.
5. The supply valve must be sized for the maximum anticipated steam load.
6. Do not drip steam mains into coil sections. Drip them on
the pressure side of the control valve and trap them into
the return main beyond the trap for the coil.
7. Do not use a single trap for two or more coils installed in
series. Where two or more coils are installed in a single
bank, in parallel, the use of a single trap is permissible,
but only if the load on each coil is equal. Where loads in
the same coil bank vary, best practice is to use a separate
trap for each coil.
Variation in load on different coils in the same bank may
be caused by several factors. Two of the most common
are uneven airflow distribution across the coil and stratification of inlet air across the coil.
8. Do not try to lift condensate above the coil return into an
overhead main, or drain into a main under pressure with a
modulating or on/off steam control valves. A pump
and receiver should be installed between the coil condensate traps and overhead mains and return mains under
pressure.
9. Use a strainer (
3
/32-in. mesh) on the steam supply side,
as shown in the piping diagrams, to avoid collection of
scale or other foreign matter in the inner tube distributing
orifices.
NOTE: IDT coils must be installed with the tubes draining
toward the header end of the coil. The IDT steam coils are
pitched toward the header end as installed in the unit.
10. Ensure the AHU (air-handling unit) is installed level to
maintain the inherent slope. Also ensure the unit is installed high enough to allow the piping to be installed correctly, especially the traps which require long drip legs.
11. Do not fail to provide all coils with the proper air vents to
eliminate noncondensable gasses.
12. Do not support steam piping from the coil units. Both
mains and coil sections should be supported separately.
IDT Steam Coil Installation
— Refer to drawings to position
the coils properly with regard to the location of the supply and
return connections. Ensure that the IDT coil is pitched with the
tubes draining toward the header. The AHUs provide proper
coil pitch when the AHU is installed level.
Refer to schematic piping diagrams and piping connection
notes for the recommended piping methods.

Coils —
depending upon the unit size and coil circuiting. Each split requires its own distributor nozzle, expansion valve, and suction
piping. Suction connections are on the air entering side when
the coil is properly installed. Matching distributor connections
for each coil split are on the air leaving side. See unit label or
certified drawing to assure connection to matching suction and
liquid connections.
The lower split of face split coils should be first on, last off.
Row split coils utilize special intertwined circuits; either
split of these row split coils can be first on, last off.
Direct-expansion coils are divided into 1 or 2 splits
CAUTION
Direct-expansion coils are shipped pressurized with dry
nitrogen. Release pressure from each coil split through
valves in protective caps before removing caps.
Do not leave piping open to the atmosphere unnecessarily. Water and water vapor are detrimental to the refrigerant
system. Until the piping is complete, recap the system and
charge with nitrogen at the end of each workday. Clean all
piping connections before soldering joints.
Failure to follow these procedures could result in personal
injury or equipment damage.
SUCTION PIPING — Connect suction piping as shown in
Fig. 57 for face split coil.
EXPANSION VALVE PIPING — Distributor nozzles and
expansion valves sized for acceptable performance for a range
of conditions are factory supplied. Use the AHU (air-handling
unit) selection program in the electronic catalog to select optimal nozzle sizes.
Circuiting selection should result in a circuit loading of 0.8
to 2.0 tons per circuit at design load. Circuit loading must be
evaluated at minimum load to ensure that it does not drop
below 0.6 tons per circuit. Solenoid valves may be used, if necessary, to shut off the refrigerant supply to individual expansion
valves to maintain adequate coil circuit loading.
Compressor minimum unloading and TXV quantity is necessary to determine minimum tonnage per circuit.
Minimum Unloading Equation:
(Tons per Circuit) x (Minimum Unloading)
x (Total no. of TXVs)
no. of TXVs Active

If we install a liquid line solenoid valve before one of the
TXVs and close it so that only one TXV is active when the
compressor is unloaded to its minimum of 33%, we see the

when using an unloading compressor. The first is to use
drop solenoid valve control as illustrated above and let the
suction cutoff unloaders “ride” with the load. The second is to
use drop solenoid valve control as illustrated above with
electric unloaders and let the control algorithm determine the
combination of solenoid valves and unloaders to limit tons per
circuit to acceptable limits. The third is to limit the minimum
amount of unloading so that tons per circuit is within acceptable limits.
Electric Heaters — Electric heaters may be factory-
installed or factory-supplied for field installation.

Check List —
protect insulation. Remove all construction debris from unit
interior. Remove walkway before starting unit.
FILTERS — Install unit filters in all filter sections.
FANS
1. Check lubrication of fan, motor bearings, and linkages.
a. Note that bearings are shipped completely full of
grease for corrosion protection and may run warm
temporarily on start-up until excess grease has
discharged.
b. Hand-operate all damper linkages to check for
freedom of movement.
2. Check tightness of bearing setscrews or locking collars.
Also, check tightness of setscrews on fan wheels and
sheaves.
3. Check tightness of fan shaft bearing mounting.
4. Recheck sheave alignment and belt tension. (Refer to
Fig. 49 and 50.)
5. Hand turn fan to make certain fan wheel does not rub in
housing.
6. Check fan speed with a strobe-type tachometer or use the
following formula: Obtain the motor rpm from the fan
motor nameplate and read sheave pitch diameters marked
on the fan and motor pulleys, or estimate the pitch diameters by using the pulley outside diameters.
Then:
Fan Rpm =

Fan Rpm =1760 x 8.9
Refer to the product data catalog for maximum allowable
fan speeds for standard wheels. Excessive fan speed may
result in condensate carryover from cooling coil or fan
motor overload and wheel failure.
7. Check direction of rotation (see Fig. 61). Arrow on drive
side of fan housing indicates correct direction of rotation.

8. Check vibration. If excessive vibration occurs, check for
the following:
a. Variable sheave (if air balance of system has been
accomplished: replace sheave with fixed sheave
for continuous application).
b. Drive misalignment.
c. Mismatched, worn or loose belts.
d. Wheel or sheaves loose on shaft.
e. Loose bearings.
f. Loose mounting bolts.
g. Motor out of balance.
h. Sheaves eccentric or out of balance.
i. Vibration isolators improperly adjusted.
j. Out-of-balance or corroded wheel (rebalance or
replace if necessary).
k. Accumulation of material on wheel (remove
excess material).
SERVICE
General
1. Place a suitable walkway to protect floor insulation
whenever entering the fan section.
2. Review Safety Considerations at beginning of these instructions. Good safety habits are important tools when
performing service procedures.
3. To make speed measurements, use a strobe-style tachometer or calculate per Step 6 of Start-Up, Check List.
Fan Motor Replacement
1. Shut off motor power.
2. Disconnect and tag power wires at motor terminals.
3. Loosen motor brace-to-mounting-rail attaching bolts.
Loosen belt tensioning bolts to adjust the motor position
so V-belts can be removed without stretching over
grooves.
4. Mark belt as to position. Remove and set aside belts.
5. Remove motor to motor bracket holddown bolts.
6. Remove motor pulley and set aside.
7. Remove motor.
8. Install new motor. Reassemble by reversing Steps 1-6. Be
sure to reinstall multiple belts in their original position.
Use a complete new set if required. Do not stretch belts
over sheaves. Review the sections on motor and sheave
installation, sheave alignment and belt tensioning discussed previously (Fig. 48-50).
9. Reconnect motor leads and restore power. Check fan for
proper rotation as described in Start-Up, Check List.
Coil Cleaning
DETERGENT — Spray mild detergent solution on coils with
garden-type sprayer. Rinse with fresh water. Check to ensure
condensate line is free. Excess water from cleaning may flood
unit if condensate line is plugged.
Winter Shutdown (Chilled Water Coil Only)
ANTIFREEZE METHODS OF COIL PROTECTION
1. Close coil water supply and return valves.
2. Drain coil as follows:
Method I — ‘Break’ flange of coupling at each header
location. Separate flange or coupling connection to facilitate coil draining.
Method II — Open both valves to auxiliary drain piping.
34
3. After coil is drained:
Method I — Connect line with a service valve and union
from upper nozzle to an antifreeze reservoir. Connect a
self-priming reversible pump between the low header
connection and the reservoir.
Method II — Make connection to auxiliary drain valves.
4. Fill reservoir with any inhibited antifreeze acceptable to
code and underwriter authority.
5. Open service valve and circulate solution for 15 minutes;
then check its strength.
6. If solution is too weak, add more antifreeze until desired
strength is reached, then circulate solution through coil
for 15 minutes or until concentration is satisfactory.
7. Remove upper line from reservoir to reversible pump.
Drain coil to reservoir and then close service valve.
8. Break union and remove reservoir and its lines.
9. Leave coil flanges or coupling open and auxiliary drain
valves open until spring.
AIR DRYING METHOD OF COIL PROTECTION (Unit
and coil must be level for this method.)
1. Close coil water supply and return main valves.
2. Drain coil as described in procedures for Antifreeze
Methods of Coil Protection.
3. Connect air supply or air blower to inlet header connection and close its drain connection.
4. Circulate air and check for air dryness by holding mirror
in front of open vent in outlet header drain connection.
Mirror will fog if water is still present.
5. Allow coil to stand for a few minutes; repeat Step 4 until
coil is dry.
PIPING — Direct expansion, chilled water, and hot water
coils should always be piped for counterflow. (Fluid should
enter the coil at the leaving-air side.) Steam coils must have the
condensate connection at bottom of coil.
To determine intervals for cleaning coils in contaminated air
operations, pressure taps should be installed across the coils
and checked periodically. Abnormal air pressure drop will indicate a need for cleaning the coils.
Annual maintenance should include:
1. Clean the line strainers.
2. Blow down the dirt leg.
3. Clean and check operation of steam traps.
4. Check operation of control valves.
5. Check the operation of check valves to prevent condensate flowback.
6. Check operation of thermostatic air vents, if used. A float
and thermostatic trap will contain a thermostatic air vent.
When the bellows is ruptured, it will fail closed.
7. Check operation of vacuum breakers.
8. Check operation of the thermal protection devices used
for freeze-up protection.
9. Steam or condensate should not be allowed to remain in
the coil during the off season.This will prevent the formation and build up of acids.
There are additional precautions and control strategies, as
found in various catalogues and in the ASHRAE Fundamentals
Handbook and in the Carrier System Design Guide — Piping
Section, when the entering-air temperature to the coil falls below 35 F. These conditions occur when IDT coils are used for
pre-heat and/or face and bypass applications.
Freeze up protection:
1. Use a strainer in the supply line and the dirt leg ahead of
the trap.
2. Use a vacuum breaker in the return.
3. Do not use overhead returns from the coil. A floodback
can occur.
4. An immersion thermostat to control outdoor-air dampers
and the fan motor is recommended. This control is activated when the steam supply fails or the condensate
temperature drops below a predetermined temperature,
usually 120 F.
5. On low pressure and vacuum systems, the immersion
thermostat may be replaced by a condensate drain with a
thermal element. This element opens and drains the coil
when the condensate temperature drops below 165 F.
Note the thermal condensate drain is limited to 5 psig
pressure. At greater coil pressures they will not open.
In spite of the precautions listed above, a coil may still
freeze up. An oversize capacity coil, at partial load, with a
modulating steam control valve will occasionally freeze.
Freezing occurs in the 20 F to 35 F range of entering-air
temperatures. A better installation would be an undersize coil,
with an on/off control valve with thermostatic control in the
outside air, set at 35 F air temperature, installed downstream of
the first coil; or setting the minimum steam pressure at 5 psig.
