NOTE: Read and become familiar with these instructions
before beginning installation.
SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installing and servicing air-conditioning equipment can
be hazardous due to system pressures and electrical com
ponents. Only trained and qualified service personnel should
install or service air-conditioning equipment. When work
ing on air-conditioning equipment, observe the precautions
provided in literature, and on tags and labels attached to the
unit.
A WARNING
Electrical shock can cause personal injury or death.
Before beginning any modification or installation of this
package, be sure the main electrical disconnect is in
the off position. Ensure power is disconnected to the
fan coil unit. On some systems both the fan coil and
the outdoor unit may be on the same disconnect. Tag
the disconnect switch with a suitable warning label.
GENERAL
The accessory heat pump piping package is designed for
use with the Carrier 38QP024 heat pump (outdoor section)
in combination with the 40RR024 fan coil unit (indoor
section) (see Fig. 1).
Special accessories are available for electrical control of
this system. Electric heaters for the 40RR024 are a fieldinstalled accessory. Ensure that all material required for
installation is available at the jobsite, including the 38QP024
outdoor section, the 40RR024 indoor section, piping pack
age, electrical control package, and 40RT electric heater
packages. The Sporlan part no. G8 nozzle is used for both
the upper (circuit no. 2) and lower (circuit no. 1) coil sec
tions of the indoor unit. Nozzles are shipped as standard
parts of the factory-installed 40RR distributor. Distributor
sizes are as follows:

Accessories
PIPING PACKAGE — Contains check valves, thermo
static expansion valves (TXV’s), receiver, filter driers, and
tubing to connect the indoor coils for heat pump service.
THERMOSTAT HH07AT172 (HH07AT162 For Use on
Celsius Scale) — Used with subbase HH93AZ174, is a 2-stage
cool/2-stage heat thermostat with automatic changeover and
a lockout light. There is no provision for emergency heat.
THERMOSTAT HH07AT172 (HH07AT162 For Use on
Celsius Scale) — Used with subbase HH93AZ177, is a 2-stage
cool/2-stage heat thermostat. This combination has all the
features of HH07AT172 (HH07AT162)/HH93AZ174 plus
a provision for emergency heat.
SEQUENCER PACKAGE — Can be used with this system
when unloaders are added to the compressor(s). (Unloading
can be applied in the cooling cycle only. Unloading can
never be applied in the heating cycle.) The sequencer has
4-stage cooling capability.
ELECTRIC HEATERS — May be used with the 40RR in
door unit (see Table 1). Use a maximum of four 20-kW
(at 240 v) or 21.8-kW (at 480 v) electric heater assemblies.
ELECTRIC HEATER CONTROL PACKAGE 40RT900081
— Provides control for up to 3 stages of electric heat when
used with outdoor-air thermostat(s). Package must be used
whenever 40RT electric heaters are utilized. If a fourth
stage of electric heat is used, an additional field-supplied
heater control relay is necessary. This relay must have a
24-V coil with 230-v contacts. Outdoor thermostats
(part no. HH22QA040) are recommended for staging elec
tric heaters.

INSTALLATION
Step 1 — Perform Outdoor and Indoor Unit
Installation — Follow the installation instructions pro
vided with each outdoor and indoor unit. See Table 2 for
maximum vertical elevation between the indoor and out
door sections.

Step 2 — Size Piping Lines — Employ one of the
following methods to size interconnecting refrigerant pip
ing between the 38QP and the 40RR:
1. Use the pipe sizes shown in Refrigerant (R-22) Charge
and Piping Selection table in the 38QP installation in
structions (when not using field-installed accessory un
loaders).
2. Use the Carrier System Design Manual, Part 3, Piping
Design (when using field-installed accessory
unloaders).
3. Use the piping sizing portion of the Carrier E20-II com
puter program (when using field-installed accessory
unloaders).
NOTE: Liquid line solenoid valves are not required; they
are factory-installed on the 38QP.
Step 3 - Check Contents of Piping Package
— Install heat pump piping package to convert indoor coil
for heat pump service. Table 3 lists the contents of the pip
ing package. Figure 2 shows the contents of the piping pack
age in the approximate order in which they are installed.
