Complete Outdoor Refrigerant Piping Connec-
tions
Follow the following general guidelines:
1. Use refrigerant grade field - supplied tubing.
Refer to Table 4 for the correct line sizes.
2. Do not use less than 10 ft (93.05 m) of interconnecting
tubing.
[]NIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment
damage or improper operation.
If any section of pipe is buried, there nmst be a 6 in. (152.4
ram) vertical rise to the valve connections on the outdoor
unit. If more than the recommended length is buried,
refrigerant may nfigrate to cooler, buried section during
extended periods of system shutdown. This causes
refrigerant slugging and could possibly damage the
compressor at start-up.
When more than 80 fl (24.4 m) of interconnecting tubing is used,
consult the Duct-Free Split System Long Line Application Guide
for required accessories.
3. Insulate both lines. A minimum of 1/2 inch foam pipe insu-
lation is recommended.
4. Run the refrigerant tubes as directly as possible and avoid
unnecessary turns and bends.
5. Suspend refrigerant tubes to avoid damage to insulation or
tubes so they do not transnfit vibration to the structure.
6. When passing refrigerant tubes through the wall, seal the
opening so rain and insects do not enter the structure. Leave
some slack in refrigerant tubes between structure and out-
door unit to absorb vibration.
NOTE: A fusible plug is located in unit suction line; do not cap
this plug. If local codes require additional safety devices, install
as directed.
Connection at Outdoor Unit
[]NIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage
or improper operation.

or death.
Before performing service or maintenance, be sure indoor
unit main power switch is turned OFF and indoor blower has
stopped.
Lock out and tag switch with a suitable warning label.
Power Wiring
1. Mount outdoor power disconnect. The unit is factory wired
for the voltage shown on the unit nameplate. The fused dis-
connect switch nmst be provided within sight of the unit,
readily accessible, but out of reach of children. Provisions
for locking the disconnect switch on the OFF (open) posi-
tion is advisable. The disconnect switch must comply with
NEC and local codes, Protect the unit and wiring using
only the recommended fuse/circuit breaker size. See
Table 8.
2. Run power wiring from main box to disconnect per NEC
and local codes.
3. Run power wiring from the disconnect switch to outdoor
unit. Use only minimum 60°C copper conductors between
the disconnect switch and the unit for field power connec-
tion,
4. Route the field power wires through the conduit connection
opening in the unit side panel and connect in junction box
as shown in Fig 18. The unit and power wiring must be
grounded,
NOTE: The Teflon seal on the piston should point towards the
liquid service valve. The size of the factory supplied piston
might have to be adjusted for long line applications (over 80 ft
/ 24.4 m). Refer to the Duct Free Long Line Application Guide
for additional information.
4. Attach the flare end of the filter drier assembly to the piston
cap (see Fig. 17).
