Installation and servicing of air-conditioning equipment
can be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical com
ponents. Only trained and qualified service personnel should
install, repair, or service air-conditioning equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance func
tions of cleaning coils and filters and replacing filters. All
other operations should be performed by trained service per
sonnel. When working on air-conditioning equipment, ob
serve precautions in the literature, tags and labels attached
to the unit, and other safety precautions that apply.
Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work
gloves. Use quenching cloth for unbrazing operations. Have
fire extinguishers available for all brazing operations.
A WARNING
Disconnect gas piping from unit when leak
testing at pressure greater than V2 psig. Pres
sures greater than ’/2 psig will cause gas valve
damage resulting in hazardous condition. If
gas valve is subjected to pressure greater than
■ /2 psig, it must be replaced before use. When
pressure testing field-supplied gas piping at
i
pressures of V2 psig or less, a unit connected
to such piping must be isolated by manually
closing the gas valve(s).
Before performing service or maintenance operations
on unit, turn off main power switch to unit. Electrical
shock could cause personal injury.
Unit is shipped in the vertical discharge configuration.
To convert to horizontal configuration, remove screws from
side duct opening covers and remove covers. Using the same
screws, install covers on vertical duct openings with the
insulation-side down. Seals around duct openings must be
tight. See Fig. 1.
IMPORTANT: An external filter kit MUST be used
or the filters MUST be field-installed outside the unit
on horizontal discharge applications with optional econ
omizer. Otherwise, the economizer must be partially
removed to access the filters. The area of the fieldinstalled filters should be equal to the area of the factoryinstalled filters.
Step 1 — Provide Unit Support
ROOF CURB — Assemble and install accessory roof curb
in accordance with instructions shipped with curb. See
Fig. 2. Install insulation, cant strips, roofing felt, and counter
flashing as shown. Ductwork must be attached to curb, notto the unit. If gas, electric power, or control power is to be
routed through the curb, attach the accessory thm-the-curb
service connection plates to the roof curb in accordance with
the accessory installation instmctions. Connection plates must
be installed before unit can be set on roof curb.
IMPORTANT: The gasketing of the unit to the roof
curb is critical for a watertight seal. Install gasket sup
plied with the roof curb as shown in Fig. 2. Improp
erly applied gasket can result in air leaks and poor
unit performance.
Curb should be level. Unit leveling tolerances are shown
in Fig. 3. This is necessary for unit drain to function prop
erly. Refer to Accessory Roof Curb Installation Instruc
tions for additional information as required.
SLAB MOUNT (Horizontal Units Only) — Provide a level
concrete slab that extends a minimum of 6 in. beyond unit
cabinet. Install a gravel apron in front of condenser coil air
inlet to prevent grass and foliage from obstructing airflow.
NOTE: Horizontal units may be installed on a roof curb if
required.
Step 2 — Field Fabricate Ductwork — Secure all
ducts to roof curb and building structure on vertical units.
Do not connect ductwork to unit. For horizontal applica
tions, field-supplied flanges should be attached to horizon
tal discharge openings and all ductwork should be secured
to the flanges. Insulate and weatherproof all external duct
work, joints, and roof openings with counter flashing andmastic in accordance with applicable codes.

install flue hood and screen in location shown in Fig. 7.
Step 6 — Install Gas Piping — Unit is equipped for
use with type of gas shown on nameplate. Refer to local
building codes, or in the absence of local codes, to ANSI
Z223.1-1984 and addendum Z223-1A-1987 entitled Na
tional Fuel Gas Code. In Canada, installation must be in
accordance with the CANl.B 149.1 and CAN1.B149.2 in
stallation codes for gas burning appliances.
For natural gas applications, gas pressure at unit gas con
nection must not be less than 4 in. wg or greater than
13.0 in. wg while unit is operating. On 48LJ005,006,007
high heat units, the gas pressure at unit gas connection must
not be less than 5 in. wg or greater than 13 in. wg while the
unit is operating. For propane applications, the gas pressure
must not be less than 5 in. wg or greater than 13 in. wg at
the unit connection.
Size gas supply piping for 0.5 in. wg maximum pressure
drop. Do not use supply pipe smaller than unit gas connec
tion. Support gas piping as shown in the table in Fig. 8. For
example, a %-in. gas pipe must have one field-fabricated
support beam every 8 ft. Therefore, an 18-ft long gas pipe
would have a minimum of 2 support beams, a 48-ft long
pipe would have a minimum of 6 support beams.

Step 7 — Make Electrical Connections
A WARNING
Unit cabinet must have an uninterrupted, unbroken elec
trical ground to minimize the possibility of personal in
jury 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 elec
trical ground when installed in accordance with NEC
(National Electrical Code), ANSI/NFPA (National Fire
Protection Association), latest edition, and local elec
trical codes. Do not use gas piping as an electrical ground.
Failure to follow this warning could result in the in
staller being liable for personal injury of others.
FIELD POWER SUPPLY - All units except 208/230-v
units are factory wired for the voltage shown on the name
plate. If the 208/230-v unit is to be connected to a 208-v
power supply, the transformer must be rewired by moving
the black wire from the 230-v orange wire on the trans
former and connecting it to the 200-v red wire from
the transformer. The end of the orange wire must then be
insulated.
Refer to unit label diagram for additional information.
Wiring leads are provided for field service. Use copper con
ductors only when splice connectors are used.
When installing units, provide a disconnect per NEC.
All field wiring must comply with NEC and local require
ments. In Canada, electrical connections must be in accor
dance with CSA (Canadian Standards Association) C22.1
Canadian Electrical Code Part 1.
Install conduit through side panel openings indicated in
Fig. 6. Route power lines through connector to terminal
connections as shown in Fig. 9.
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 the legend for Table 2, Note 2 to
determine the percent voltage imbalance. Operation on im
proper line voltage or excessive phase imbalance consti
tutes abuse and may cause damage to electrical components.
Such operation would invalidate any applicable Carrier
warranty.
FIELD CONTROL WIRING - Install a Carrier-approved
accessory thermostat assembly according to installation in
structions included with the accessory. Locate thermostat
assembly on a solid wall in the conditioned space to sense
average temperature in accordance with thermostat instal
lation instmctions. Connect thermostat wires to terminal board.
Route thermostat cable or equivalent single leads of col
ored wire from subbase terminals through connector on unit
to low-voltage connections (shown in Fig. 10).
Connect thermostat wires to matching screw terminals of
low-voltage connection board. See Fig. 10.
NOTE; For wire runs up 50 ft, use no. 18 AWG (American
Wire Gage) insulated wire (35 C minimum). For 50 to
75 ft, use no. 16 AWG insulated wire (35 C minimum).
For over 75 ft, use no. 14 AWG insulated wire (35 C min
imum). All wire larger than no. 18 AWG cannot be directly
connected to the thermostat and will require a junction box
and splice at the thermostat.
Pass the control wires through the hole provided in the
end panel; then feed wires through the raceway built into
the comer post to the 24-v barrier located on the left side of
the control box. See Fig. 11. The barrier provides the UL
(Underwriters’ Laboratories) required clearance between highand low-voltage wiring.
