Step 1. Moving and Setting Unit in Place Step Step Step Step Step Step Step Step Step 10.

Step 1—Moving and Setting Unit in Place

Condensate Disposal Venting Gas Piping Duct Connections Electrical Connections
7. Preparing Unit for Steurtup
8. Heating Section Startup and Adjustments
9. Cooling Section Startup and Adjustments Care and Maintenance
A CAUTION
Use spreader bars and crate top when rigging the unit to be lifted. Model 48N must be rigged for lifting as shown in Fig. 4. Use extreme caution to prevent dam age when moving the unit. Unit must remain in an upright position during eJl rigging and moving opera tions. The unit must be level for proper condensate
drainage; therefore, the ground-level pad or accessory roof-mounting curb must be level before setting the unit in place. When a field-fabricated support is used, ensure that the support is level and properly supports the unit.

A. Rooftop installation

A CAUTION
When installing the unit on a rooftop, be sure that the
roof will support the additional weight. Refer to Figs. 2 & 3 for Model 48N to obtain toted weight and corner weight information.
For downflow applications, an accessory roof-mounting curb must be installed on, and flashed into the roof before unit installation. The instructions for installing the acces sory curb are packaged with the curb.
For end-discharge applications place the unit on a level base
that provides proper support. On flat roofs, be sure that the unit is located at least 4-ins. above the highest expected water level on the roof to prevent flooding.

B. Ground-Level Installation

Place the unit on a sohd, level, concrete pad that is a mini
mum of 2-ins. thick and that extends approximately 2-in. beyond the casing on all four sides of the unit. Do not secure the unit to the pad except when required by local codes.

C. Clearances

The required minimiim operating and service clearances are shown in Figs. 2 and 3. Adequate combustion, ventilation and condenser air must be provided.
A CAUTION
Do not restrict condenser airflow. An air restriction at either the outdoor-air inlet (the entire surface of the out door cofl.) or the fan discharge can be detrimental to compressor hfe.
The condenser fan discharges through the top of the unit. Ensure that the fan discheirge does not recirculate to the condenser coil. Do not locate the unit in either a corner or under a complete overhead obstruction. The minimum clear ance under a partial overhang (such as a normal house roof overhang) is 48-ins. above unit top. The maximum horizon tal extension of a partial overhang must not exceed 48-in..
Do not locate the unit where water, ice, or snow from an overhang or roof wiU damage or flood the unit by falling on the top. Do not locate the unit where grass, shrubs, or other plants will interfere with the airflow either into or out of the unit. Do not install the unit on carpeting, tile, or other com bustible material other than wood flooring. Furnace may be installed on wood flooriag or on Class A, B, or C roof cover ing materials.
Step 2—Condensate Disposal NOTE: Ensure that condensate-water disposal methods
comply with local codes, restrictions, and practices. Model 48N disposes of condensate water through a 3/4-in.,
Male Female NPT drain fitting. See Figs. 2 and 3 for location.
Install a 2-in. trap at the drain fitting to ensure proper drainage. See Fig. 5. Make sure that the outlet of the trap is at least 1-in. lower than the unit drain pan connection to prevent the pan from overflowing. Prime the trap with water.
If the installation requires draining the condensate water away from the unit, connect a drain tube using a minimum of 7/8-in. OD copper tubing, 3/4-in. galvanized pipe, or 3/4-in. plastic pipe. Do not undersize the tube. Pitch the drain tube downward at a slope of at least 1-in. in every 10­ft of horizontal run. Be sure to check the drain tube for leaks.
Condensate water can be drained directly onto the roof in
rooftop installations (where permitted) or onto a gravel apron in ground-level installations. When using a gravel apron, make sure it slopes away from the unit.

Step 3—Venting

The vent-cap assembly is shipped in the burner compart ment. Remove the access door to locate the assembly.

A CAUTION
The venting system is designed to ensure proper vent ing. The vent cap assembly must be installed as indi cated in this section of the unit Installation Instructions.
NOTE: Screw holes in the flue assembly and the unit flue
panel are not symmetrically located; thereby, ensuring proper orientation when installing these components.
Refer to Fig. 6 and install the vent cap as follows:
1. Place vent cap assembly over flue panel, orient screw holes in vent cap with holes in flue panel, and secure
vent cap in place by inserting the single screw on the right side of vent cap.
2. Place the vent cap guard over the vent cap, orient holes
in vent cap guard with holes in vent cap and flue panel.
Secure the entire assembly with the remaining two screws on the left side of vent cap and vent cap guard assembly.
Step 4—Gas Piping
The gas supply pipe enters the unit through the access hole provided. The gas connection to the unit is made to the 1/2-in. FPT gas inlet on the manual shutoff or gas valve.
Install a separate gas supply line that runs directly from the meter to the heating section. Refer to Table 1 and the National Fuel Gas Code for gas pipe sizing. Do not use cast-
iron pipe. Check the local utihty for recommendations con
cerning existing lines. Choose a supply pipe that is large enough to keep the pressure loss as low as practical. Never
use pipe smaller than the 1/2-in. FPT gas inlet on the unit
gas valve.
When instaUing the gas supply hne, observe local codes per taining to gas pipe installations. Refer to the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1-1984 (In Canada, CAN/CGA B 149.1, (2)-M86) or NFPA 54-1984 in the absence of local buUding codes. Adhere to the following pertinent recom mendations:
1. Avoid low spots in long runs of pipe. Grade aU pipe 1/4-in. in every 15-ft to prevent traps. Grade all hori zontal runs downward to risers. Use risers to connect to heating section and to meter.
2. Protect all segments of piping system against physical and thermal damage. Support all piping with appropri ate straps, hangers, etc. Use a minimum of one hanger every 6-ft. For pipe sizes larger than 1/2-in., follow rec ommendations of national codes.
3. Apply joint compound (pipe dope) sparingly and only to male threads of joint when making pipe connections. Use only pipe dope that is resistant to action of lique fied petroleum gases as specified by local and/or national codes. Never use teflon tape.

4. Install sediment trap in riser leading to heating sec tion. This drip leg functions as a trap for dirt and con densate. Install trap where condensate can not freeze. Install this sediment trap by connecting a piping tee to riser leading to heating section, so that straight­through section of tee is vertical. See Fig. 7. Then, con nect capped nipple into lower end of tee. Extend capped nipple below level of gas controls.
Install an accessible, external, manual main shut-off
5. valve in gas supply pipe within 6-ft of heating section.
Install ground-joint union close to heating section
6. between unit manual shutoff and external manual main shut-off valve.
7. Pressure-test all gas piping in accordance with local and national plumbing and gas codes before connecting piping to unit.
NOTE: When pressure testing the gas supply system after
the gas supply piping has been coimected to the unit gas valve, the supply piping must be disconnected from the gas vedve during any pressure testing of the piping systems at test pressure in excess of 0.5 psig. When pressure testing the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 0.5 psig, the unit heating section must be isolated from the gas piping system by closing the external main manual shut-off valve and slightly opening the ground-joint
union.

A73130
A CAUTION
Unstable operation may occur when the gas valve and manifold assembly are forced out of position while con necting improperly routed rigid gas piping to the gas valve. Use a backup wrench when making connection to avoid strain on, or distortion of, the gas control piping.
A CAUTION
If a flexible conductor is required or allowed by the authority having jurisdiction, black iron pipe shall be installed at the gas valve and extend a minimum of 2-ins. outside the unit casing.
A WARNING
Never use a match or other open flame when checking for gas leaks. Never purge gas line into combustion chamber. Failure to adhere to this warning could result in an explosion.
8. Check for gas leaks at all field-installed and factory­installed gas lines after all piping connections have been completed. Use soap-and-water solution (or method specified by local codes and/or regulations).
2. Select and size ductwork, supply-air registers, and return-air grilles according to ASHRAE recom mendations.
A CAUTION
When the duct-system fastening holes are being drilled into side of Model 48N instead of the unit duct flanges, use extreme ceire to avoid puncturing the coil or cofl. tubes.
3. Use flexible transition between rigid ductwork and unit to prevent transmission of vibration. The transition may be screwed or bolted to duct flanges. Use suitable gaskets to ensure weather and airtight seal.
4. Install external, field-supplied air filter(s) in return-air ductwork where it is easily accessible for service. Rec ommended filter sizes are shown in Tables 2 thru 7.
5. Size aU ductwork for maximum required airflow (either
heating or cooling) for unit being installed. Avoid abrupt duct size increases or decreases.
6. Adequately insulate and weatherproof all ductwork located outdoors. Insulate ducts passing thru uncondi tioned space, and use vapor barrier in accordance with latest issue of SMACNÀ and ACCA minimum installa tion standards for heating and air conditioning sys tems. Secure aU ducts to building structure.
7. Flash, weatherproof, and vibration-isolate all openings
in building structure in accordance with local codes and good building practices.
Step 6—Electrical Connections
A WARNING
The unit cabinet must have an uninterrupted, unbro ken, electrical ground to minimize the possibility of per sonal injury if an electrical fault should occur. This ground may consist of electrical wire connected to the unit ground lug in the control compartment, or conduit approved for electrical ground when installed in accor dance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70-1987 (in Canada, Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1) and local electrical codes. Do not use gas piping as an electrical ground. A failure to adhere to this warn ing could result in the installer being hable for the per sonal injury of others.
Step 5—Duct Connections
Model 48N has duct flanges on the supply- and return-air openings on the side and bottom of the unit. See Figs. 2 and 3 for connection sizes emd locations.
NOTE: The design and installation of the duct system must be in accordance with the standards of the National Fire Protection Association for installation of nonresidence-type air conditioning and ventilating systems, NFPA No. 90A or residence-type, NFPA No. 90B; and/or local codes and ordinances.
Adhere to the following criteria when selecting, sizing, and installing the duct system:
1. Remove appropriate panels from unit to obtain either side or bottom discharge. If models 48NLT018 thru 48NMT042 are installed in horizontal discharge apph­cations, remove side duct covers, save screws, and install the covers on bottom duct openings. For models 48NHT036 thru 48NHT060 remove either side or bot tom duct covers as needed and discard.
A CAUTION
A failure to follow these precautions could result in damage to the unit being installed:
1. Make all electrical connections in accordance with National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70-1987 and
local electrical codes governing such wiring. In Canada,
all electrical connections must be in accordance with CSA standard C22.1 Cemadian Electrical Code Part 1 and applicable local codes. Refer to Unit Wiring
Diagram.
2. Use only copper conductor for connections between field-supplied electrical disconnect switch and unit. DO NOT USE ALUMINUM WIRE.
3. Ensure that high-voltage power to unit is within oper ating voltage range indicated on unit rating plate. On 3-phase units, ensure that phases are balanced within 2%. Consult local power company for correction of improper voltage and/or phase balance.

4. Insulate low-voltage wires for highest voltage con tained within conduit when low-voltage control wires are run in same conduit as high-voltage wires.
5. Do not deunage internal components when drilling thru any panel to mount electrical hardware, conduit, etc.
A. High-Voltage Connections
The unit must have a separate electrical service with a field-
supphed, waterproof, fused disconnect switch mounted at, or within sight from the unit. Refer to the unit rating plate for maximum fuse size and minimum circuit amps (ampac ity) for wire sizing. Tables 2 thru 7 show recommended wire sizes based on rating plate data.
The field-supphed disconnect switch box may be mounted on the unit over the high-voltage inlet hole in the control corner panel. See Figs. 2 and 3.
Proceed as follows to complete the high-voltage connections
to the unit:
1. Connect ground lead to chassis ground connection when using separate ground wire.
2. Run high-voltage leads into unit control box and con nect to contactor. See unit wiring label, and Fig. 8.
B. Special Procedures for 208-V Operation
A WARNING
Make sure that the power supply to the unit is switched OFF before making any wiring changes. Electrical shock can cause personal injury or death.
For operation on 208 volts, disconnect the orange transformer-primary lead from the contactor. See the unit wiring label. Remove the tape and cover from the terminal on the end of the red transformer-primary lead. Save the cover. Connect the red lead to the contactor terminal from which the orange lead was disconnected.
Using the cover removed from the red lead, insulate the loose terminal on the orange lead. Wrap the cover with elec trical tape so that the metal terminal can not be seen.
Indoor blower motor speed taps should be changed for 208V operation on 208/230v rated units. Interchange motor leads at printed circuit board (PCI) in unit control box. High speed for coohng and medium speed for heating operation. See Step 9-C and unit wiring label. Do not change blower speed setting for 460V rated units.
C. Control Voltage Connections
Locate the room thermostat on an inside wall in the space to be conditioned where it will not be subjected to either a coohng or heating source or direct exposure to sunhght. Mount the thermostat 4 to 5-ft above the floor.
Use No. 18 AWG color-coded, insulated (35 C minimum) wires to make the control voltage connections between the thermostat and the unit. If the thermostat is located more than 100-ft from the unit (as measured along the control voltage wires), use No. 16 AWG color-coded, insulated (35 C minimum) wires.
A grommeted, control voltage inlet hole is located in the panel adjacent to the control access panel. See Figs. 2 and 3. Run the low-voltage leads from the thermostat, thru the inlet hole, and to the control voltage terminals through a hole in the bottom of the unit control box. Pass control volt age leads through wire ties located under unit control box. Connect the thermostat leads to the terminals as shown in Fig. 8.
D. Heat Anticipator Setting
The room thermostat heat anticipator must be properly
adjusted to ensure proper heating performance. Set the heat anticipator, using an ammeter to determine the exact required setting.
NOTE: For thermostat selection purposes, use 1.0 amp for
the approximate required setting.

Failure to make a proper heat anticipator adjustment will result in improper operation, discomfort to the occupants of the conditioned space, and inefficient energy utilization; however, the required setting may be changed shghtly to provide a greater degree of comfort for a particular installation.
E. Circuit Breaker
Unit has manual reset circuit breaker which is located in the
low voltage wiring box adjacent to low voltage terminal board. If unit fails to operate, first check breaker for tripped position. If breaker is tripped, re-set and try to start unit. If breaker continues to trip there is a problem in the low volt
age electrical circuit. (Electrical short, ground, or trans
former overload) Correct the condition and check for normal unit operation.
Step 7—Preparing Unit for Startup
DANGER: Failure to observe the following warnings
could result in serious personal injury;
1. Follow recognized safety practices and wear protec tive goggles when checking or servicing refrigerant

B. Refrigerant Leaks
Proceed as foUows to repair a refrigerant leak and to charge the unit:
1. Locate leak and ensure that refrigerant system pres sure has been relieved.
2. Repair leak following accepted practices.
NOTE: Install a filter-drier whenever the system has been
opened for repair.
3. Add a small charge of R-22 refrigerant vapor to system and leak-test unit.
4. Evacuate refrigerant system if additional leaks are not
found.
5. Charge unit with R-22 refrigerant, using a volumetric-
charging cylinder or accurate scale. Refer to unit rating plate for required charge. Be sure to add extra refriger
ant to compensate for internal volume of filter-drier.
NOTE: See Step 9, part B for checking and adjusting refrig
erant charge.
Step 8—Heating Section Startup and Adjustments
A CAUTION
Complete the required procedures given in Step 7, ' paring Unit for Startup,” before starting the unit.
‘Pre-
Do not jumper any safety devices when operating the unit. Ensure that burner orifices are properly aligned. Unstable
operation may occur when the burner orifices in the mani fold are misaligned.
NOTE: When installing a unit in extremely cold chmate
areas, a run-in period for the inducer motor is recom mended. After the unit has been installed disconnect the red wire from terminal 2 at the ignition control (IGN) and
jumper terminals R-W at the control voltage termineJ
board. See Figs. 12, 13, & 14. The inducer motor should run but burner ignition will not occur. Allow inducer motor to run for 4 to 5 hours. Reconnect red wire to terminal 2 at ignition control (IGN) and remove R-W jumper at the con trol voltage terminal board. Proceed as follows to complete heating section start up.
Follow the fighting instructions on the heating section oper ation label (located inside the burner access door) to start
the heating section. However, when fighting the unit for the first time, perform
the following additional steps:
1. If the gas supply pipe was not purged before connect ing the unit, it will be full of air. It is recommended that the ground joint union be loosened, and the supply fine be allowed to purge until the odor of gas is detected. Never purge gas fines into a combustion chamber. Immediately upon detection of gas odor,
retighten the union. Allow 5 minutes to elapse, then fight unit in accordance with Step 8, part A below.
A. Checking Heating Controi Operation
Start and check the unit for proper heating control opera tion as follows: (See furnace fighting instructions located inside burner access panel.)
Place the room thermostat SYSTEM switch in the HEAT position and the FAN switch in the AUTO position. Set the heating temperature control of the thermostat above room temperature. Observe that after built-in time delays, the
pilot automatically fights, the burners fight, and the blower
motor starts. Observe that the burners and pilot go out, and that after a built-in delay the blower motor stops when the heating control setting of the thermostat is satisfied.
NOTE: 060 size 460V models are equipped with a 3-phase
blower motor. Check blower wheel for correct rotation as indicated by arrow on blower housing. If blower wheel rotates in opposite direction, reverse any two blower motor leads or any two fine voltage leads. Recheck blower wheel rotation if necessary to reverse leads.
B. Gas Input
Check gas input and manifold pressure after unit start-up. (See Table 8) If adjustment is required proceed as follows.
A CAUTION
These units are designed to consume the rated gas inputs using the fixed orifices at specified manifold pressures as shown in Table 8. DO NOT REDRILL THE ORIFICES UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
The rated gas inputs shown in Table 8 are for eiltitudes from
sea level up to 2000-ft above sea level. These inputs are
based on natural gas with a heating value of 1050 Btu/ft^ at
0.65 specific gravity, or LP (propane) gas with a heating value of 2500 Btu/ft^ at 1.5 specific gravity. For elevations above 2000-ft, reduce input 4% for each 1000-ft above sea level. When the gas supply being used has a different heat ing value or specific gravity, refer to national and local
10
Page 11
codes, or contact your Distributor or Branch to determine the required orifice size.
C. Adjusting Gas Input
The gas input to the unit is determined by measuring the gas flow at the meter or by measuring the manifold pres sure. Measuring the gas flow at the meter is recommended for natural gas units. The manifold pressure must be mea sured to determine the input of propane gas units.
1. Measuring Gas Flow at Meter Method—Natural Gas Units
Minor adjustment can be made by changing the manifold pressure. The manifold pressure must be maintained between 3.2 and 3.8-in. water. If larger adjustments are required, change main burner orifices following the recom mendations of national and local codes.
NOTE: All other apphances that use the same meter must
be turned off when gas flow is measured at the meter. Proceed as follows:
Turn off gas supply to unit.
a.
Remove pipe plug on outlet of gas valve, then con
b.
nect manometer at this point. Turn on gas to unit.
Record number of seconds for gas meter test dial to
c.
make one revolution.
Divide number of seconds in step c into 3600 (num
ber of seconds in 1 hour). Multiply result of step d by the number of cubic ft
e.
shown for one revolution of test dial to obtain cubic
ft of gas flow per hour.
f. Multiply result of step e by Btu heating value of gas
to obtain total measured input in Btuh. Compare this value with heating input shown in Table 8. (Consult the local gas suppher if the heating value of gas is not known.)
Example: Assume that the size of test dial is 1 cubic ft, one
revolution takes 30 seconds, eind the heating value of the gas is 1050 Btu/ft®, then proceed as follows:
a. 30 seconds to complete one revolution.
b. 3600 -30 = 120.
c. 120 X 1 = 120 ft® of gas flow/hr.
d. 120 X 1050 = 126,000-Btuh input.
If the desired gas input is 125,000 Btuh, only a minor change in the manifold pressure is required.
Observe manifold pressure and proceed as follows to adjust gas input:
Remove cover screw over regulator adjustment
a.
screw on gas valve.
Turn regulator adjustment screw clockwise to
b.
increase gas input, or turn regulator adjustment screw counterclockwise to decrease input. Manifold pressure must be between 3.2 and 3.8-in.-water.
A WARNING
Unsafe operation of the unit may result if manifold pressure is outside this range. Personal injury or unit damage may result.
c. Replace cover screw cap on gas valve.
d. Turn off gas supply to unit. Remove manometer
from pressure tap. Replace pipe plug on gas valve. Turn on gas to unit. Check for leaks.
2. Measuring Manifold Pressure—Propane Gas Units
The main burner orifices on a propane gas unit are sized for the unit rated input when the manifold pressure is 10.5-in. water.
Proceed as follows to adjust gas input on a propane gas
unit:
a. Turn off gas to unit.
b. Remove pipe plug on outlet of gas valve then con
nect memometer at this point.
c. Turn on gas to unit.
d. Remove cover screw over REG ADJ screw on gas
valve.
e. Adjust regulator adjustment screw for a manifold
pressure reading of 10.5-in.-water. Turn adjusting screw clockwise to increase manifold pressure, or turn adjusting screw counterclockwise to decrease manifold pressure.
f. Replace cover screw.
g. Turn off gas to unit. Remove manometer from pres
sure tap. Replace pipe plug on gas valve, then tmrn on gas to unit. Check for leaks.
D. Check Burner Flame
Observe the unit heatmg operation, and watch the burner flames through the observation port to see if they are light blue and soft in appearance, and the flames are approxi mately the same for each burner. See Fig. 10.
E. Blower Heat-Relay Operation
Blower relay PCI (See the unit wiring diagram.) is located in the control box and adjusts to permit either longer or
shorter “off” cycles. The “on” cycle is factory set for 1 min ute on timing. The adjusting dial on the relay (See Fig. 9) is factory-set at the minimum position to provide optimum performance for most installations. On unusual installa tions, the length of time the blower remains on may require increasing. To increase blower operation time, rotate the adjusting dial counter-clockwise. To decrease blower opera tion time, rotate dial clockwise. (Minimum time 1 minute.) Maximum time 3 minutes.)
F. Airflow and Temperature Rise
The heating section of each size of unit is designed and approved for heating operation within the temperature rise range stamped on the unit rating plate.

Table 9 shows the approved temperature rise range for each unit, and the air delivery Cfm at various temperature rises. The heating operation airflow must produce a temperature rise that fedls within the approved range.
Refer to Step 9, part C, of these instructions to adjust heat
ing airflow, when required.
G. Safety Check of Limit Control
The control shuts off the combustion gas supply and ener gizes the circulating-air blower motor if the furnace overheats.
The recommended method of checking this hmit control is
to gradually block off the return air after the furnace has
been operating for a period of at least 5 minutes. As soon as
the hmit control functions, the retum-air opening should be unblocked to permit normal eiir circulation. By using this method to check the hmit control, it can be estabhshed that the hmit is functioning properly and the furnace will “fail safe” if there is a restricted circulating air supply or motor failure. If the hmit control does not function during this test, the cause must be determined emd corrected.
H. Heating Sequence of Operation See Figs. 12,13 or 14
Room thermostat cahs for heat closing circuit between “ R” and “W” 24 volt control circuit terminals. (Power to the “R” terminal is supphed through “CB” Circuit Breaker and “LS, ALS Emd FL” safety switches) “PC2” inducer control
board is energized which starts the inducer motor “IM”. The inducer motor comes up to speed, the vacuum in the col lector box increases, opening the normahy closed and clos ing the normahy open contacts of the contacts of the pres sure switch “PS” energizing the circuit to the “IGN” igni tion control and the phot valve “PV”. If the flame sensor
proves the presence of the pilot flame the internal switching
of the ingition control de-energizes the spark generator and
energizes the main gas valve, “MV” and the “IFR2” elec tronic timer. Gas flows to the main burners and is ignited by the phot flame. The “PCI” electronic timer will close the
“IFR2” relay between 60 to 90 seconds after the burners are ignited and the blower motor “IFM” will start. When the thermostat is satisfied the “R” and “W” circuit is opened and power is removed from the “PC2” inducer con trol and the “IGN” ignition module which causes the main gas vedve to close instantly and the inducer motor is de energized. The electronic timer “PCI” will keep the “IFM” blower motor running Em additional 1 to 3 minutes. Then the blower stops and the unit is on standby until another call for heat.
NOTE: If the main limit switch opens due to the unit over
heating, the blower motor is turned on thru the electronic board.
If the pilot fails to hght within a 50 second trail for ignition period from the initial caff for heat the ignition control “IGN” will lockout the system and prevent further hghting attempts. To reset, open the “R” - “W” thermostat circuit for 30 seconds and re-close.
I. Limit Switches
Furnace limit switch “LS” (See Figs. 12, 13 or 14.) closes the gas valve if the leaving-eur temperature exceeds the maximum allowable temperature.
Normally closed hmit switch “LS” completes the control circuit through the thermostat “R” circuit, See Figs. 12, 13 or 14. Should the leaving-air temperature rise above the maximum allowable temperature the hmit switch opens emd the “R” control circuit “bresiks.” Any interruption in the “R” control circuit instantly closes the gas valve and stops gas flow to the burners and phot. The blower motor contin
ues to run until the time-delay sequence of blower relay
“PCI” is completed.
When the air temperature at the hmit switch drops to the low-temperature setting of the hmit switch, the switch closes and completes the “R” control circuit. The electric­spark ignition system cycles and the unit retm-ns to normal heating operation.
J. Auxiliary Limit Switch
Auxihary hmit switch “ALS” is a temperature-actuated
manual reset switch and is connected in series with the hmit
switch “LS.” The function of the switch is to prevent abnor mal blower compartment temperatures. The switch is mounted on the blower housing. When the temperature at the auxihary switch reaches the maximum allowable tem perature the “R” control circuit “breaks”, closing the gas valve and stopping gas flow to the burners and pilot. To reset switch push in on red push button. If it cycles again, shut down the unit and cah for service.
K. Fusible Link
Fusible Link “FL” is a temperature-actuated device con
nected in series with the hmit switch “LS.” It is located iu the wire bundle adjacent to the burner manifold.
The function of the device is to prevent abnormaUy high burner compartment temperatures. The hnk will melt if an overheating condition caused by inadequate combustion air supply or improper venting occurs. Do not jumper this fuse. Correct the condition and replace the fuse with an identical
part.
Step 9—Cooling Section Startup and Adjustments
CAUTION
Complete the required procedures given in Step 7, “Pre paring Unit for Startup,” before starting the unit.
Do not jumper emy safety devices when operating the unit.
Do not operate the compressor when the outdoor tem perature is below 55 F (unless accessory low-temp kit is installed).
Do not rapid-cycle the compressor. AUow 5 minutes between “on” cycles to prevent compressor damage.
A. Checking Cooling Control Operation
StEurt and check the unit for proper cooling control operation as follows:
1. Place room thermostat SYSTEM switch in OFF posi
tion. Observe that blower motor starts when FAN switch is placed in ON position and shuts down when FAN switch is placed in AUTO position.
2. Place SYSTEM switch in COOL position and FAN switch in AUTO position. Set cooling control below room temperature. Observe that compressor, con denser fan, and evaporator blower motors start. Observe that cooHng cycle shuts down when control setting is satisfied. Blower motor has off delay of approximately one minute on shut down.
3. When using an autochangeover room thermostat, place
both SYSTEM and FAN switches in AUTO positions. Observe that unit operates in heating mode when tem perature control is set to “caU for heating” (above room temperature) and operates in coohng mode when temperature control is set to “call for cooling” (below room temperature).
NOTE: 060 size 460V models are equipped with a 3-phase
12
Page 13
blower motor. Check blower wheel for correct rotation as indicated by arrow on blower housing. If blower wheel rotates in opposite direction, reverse any two blower motor leads or any two line voltage leads. Recheck blower wheel rotation if necessary to reverse leads.
B. Checking and Adjusting Refrigerant Charge
The refrigerant system is fuUy charged with R-22 refriger ant, tested, and factory-sealed.
NOTE: Adjustment of the refrigerant charge is not required
unless the unit is suspected of not having the proper R-22 charge. For all appHcations, the correct R-22 charge for the best performance is the charge that results in a suction gas superheat of 5 F at the compressor inlet when the unit is operating at the ARI rating conditions of 95 F DB outdoor and 80 F DB/67 F WB indoor.
A superheat charging label is attached to the outside of the compressor access door. The label includes a “Field Super heat Charging Table” and a “Required Suction-Tube (F)” temperature chart.
An accurate superheat thermocouple-, or thermistor-type thermometer, a shng psychrometer, and a gauge manifold are required when using the superheat charging method for evaluating the unit charge. Do not use mercury or small
dial-type thermometers because they are not adequate for this type of measurement.
A CAUTION
When evaluating the refrigerant charge, an indicated adjustment to the specified factory charge must always be very minimal. If a substantial adjustment is indi cated, an abnormal condition exists somewhere in the cooling system; such as insufficient airflow across either coil or both coils.
Proceed as follows:
1. Remove caps from low- and high-pressure service fittings.
2. Using hoses with valve core depressors, attach low-and high-pressure gauge hoses to low- and high-pressure service fittings, respectively.
3. Start unit in cooling mode and let unit run until system pressures stabilize.
4. Measure and record the following:
a. Outdoor eunbient-air temperature (F DB).
b. Evaporator inlet-air temperature (F WB).
c. Suction-tube temperature (F) at low-side service fit
ting.
d. Suction (low-side) pressure (PSIG).
5. Using “Field Superheat Charging Table,” compare
PILOT FLAME BURNER FLAME
outdoor-air temperature (F DB) with evaporator inlet­air temperature (F WB) to determine desired system operating superheat temperature. See Table 10.
6. Next, using “Required Suction-Tube (F)” table, com pare desired superheat temperature with suction (low­side) operating pressure (PSIG) to determine proper suction-tube temperature. See Table 11.
7. Compare actual suction-tube temperature with proper suction-tube temperature. Using a tolerance of ,± 3 F, add refrigerant if actual temperature is more than 3 F higher than proper suction-tube temperature, or remove refrigerant if actual temperature is more than 3 F lower than required suction-tube temperature.
NOTE: If the problem causing the inaccurate readings is a
refrigerant leak, see Step 7, part B, of these instructions.
C. Indoor Airflow and Airflow Adjustments
A CAUTION
For coohng operation, the recommended airflow is 350 to 450 Cfm per each 12,000 Btuh of rated cooling capac ity. For heating operation, the airflow must produce a temperature rise that falls within the range steunped on the unit rating plate.
Model 018-048 size units have direct-drive blower motors. Blower motors are factory-connected to dehver the proper heating and coohng airflows at normal external static pres sures (medium speed coohng, low speed heating for 230v units and high speed coohng, heating for 460v units).
060 size units have belt drive blower motors which have the motor puUey factory set at four turns open.
For 208v operation on 208/230v rated direct drive units, interchange motor leads to high speed for coohng and medium speed for heating operation.
Table 9 shows the temperature rise at various airflow rates. Tables 12 and 13 show both heating and coohng airflows at various external static pressures. Refer to these tables to determine the airflow for the system being instaUed. See Tables 2 thru 7 for the rated heating and coohng airflows.
NOTE: Be sure that ah supply- emd return-air grflles are
open, free from obstructions, and adjusted properly.
A WARNING
Disconnect electrical power to the unit before changing blower speed. (Be sure to turn off gas supply before dis connecting electrical power.) Electrical shock can cause personal injury or death.
13
Page 14
A CAUTION
Do not change the blower-motor lead connections on 460-V units from the factory setting. Damage to unit may result.
The heating emd/or cooling airflow of 208/230-V direct-drive blower motors can be changed by changing the lead connec tions of the blower motor. The motor leads are color-coded as follows:
black = high speed blue = medium speed red = low speed
NOTE: For all 208/230 V direct-drive units, the motor lead
connected to the heat relay (L) on PCI blower control deter mines the heating speed and resulting air-flow; and the motor lead connected to the cooMng relay (H) on PCI blower control determines the coohng speed and resulting airflow. See the unit wiring label.
To change the heating and/or coohng speed of a direct-drive motor, connect the appropriate color-coded lead to the appropriate relay. Connect unused motor lead to terminal Ml on the PCI blower control.
When installing a 208- or 230-V direct-drive unit that is factory-connected for heating and coohng speeds that are not the same, and the same speed for both heating and cool ing is required for a particular application, connect the appropriate color-coded lead to terminal H of coohng relay and connect a field-supplied jumper between terminal L on heat relay and terminal H of coohng relay. Connect unused leads to terminals Ml and M2 on PCI blower control.
D. Unit Controls
All compressors have the following internal-protection controls:
1. High-pressure Relief Valve—T\ds valve opens when the pressure differential between the low and high side becomes excessive.
2. Compressor Overload—This overload interrupts power to the compressor when either the current or internal temperature become excessive, and automatically resets when the internal temperature drops to a safe level. This overload may require up to 60 minutes (or
longer) to reset; therefore, if the internal overload is
suspected of being open, disconnect the electrical
power to the unit and check the circuit thru the over load with an ohmmeter or continuity tester.
E. Cooling Sequence of Operation
NOTE: Although the actual unit wiring may vary slightly
from that shown in Figs. 12, 13 or 14, the sequence of opera tion win not be affected.
With the room thermostat SYSTEM switch in the COOL position and the FAN switch in the AUTO position, the cooling sequence of operation is as follows:
When the room temperature rises to a point that is slightly
above the cooling control setting of the thermostat, the thermostat completes the circuit between thermostat termi nal “R” to terminals “Y” and “G.” These completed cir cuits through the thermostat connect contactor coil “C” (through unit wire “Y”) and relay coil “IFRl” (through unit wire “G”) across the 24-volt secondary of tremsformer “TRAN.”
The normally open contacts of energized contactor “C” close and complete the circuit through compressor motor “COMP” and condenser fan motor “OFM.” Both motors start instantly.
The set of normally open contacts of energized relay “IFRl” closes and completes the circuit through evapora tor blower motor “IFM.” The blower motor starts
instantly.
NOTE: The cooling cycle remains “on” until the room
termperature drops to point that is slightly below the cool ing control setting of the room thermostat. At this point, the thermostat “breaks” the circuit between thermostat ter minal “R” to terminals “Y” and “G.” These open circuits deenergize contactor coU “C” and relay coil “IFRl”. The condenser and compressor motors stop. After a one minute delay the blower motor stops. The unit is in a “standby” condition, waiting for the next “call for cooling” from the
room thermostat.

Inspect the pilot and clean (when necessary) at the begin
ning of each heating season. Remove the accumulation of
soot and carbon from the pilot. The pilot flame must be high enough for proper impingement on the flame sensor. Pilot flame must also come in contact with the pilot hood (target) for proper operation. If the pilot flame appears too hard (lift ing and blowing) or too soft (unstable) check inlet gas pres sure for proper value. See Table 8. The spark electrode must be located so the spark travels through a combustible mix ture of gas, if necessary, readjust the electrode as shown in Fig. 11 be certain to maintain the 1/8-in. spark gap.
G. Condenser Fan
A CAUTION
Remove control and compressor access panels. Inspect the fan blades for cracks or bends each year. Ensure that blades clear the motor by no more than 1/4-in. If the blade assembly has slipped down the motor shaft, adjust the fan position on the motor shaft by loosening the setscrew(s), then moving the blade assembly up. Be sure that the setscrew(s) is on the
flat(s) of the motor shaft before tightening.
H. Electrical Controls and Wiring
Inspect and check the electrical controls emd wiring annu ally. Be sure to turn off the gas supply and then the electri
cal power to the unit.

screw connections. If any smoky or burned connections are noticed: disassemble the connection, clean aU the parts, restrip the wire end, and reassemble the connection properly
and securely. After inspecting the electrical controls and wiring, replace
all the panels. Start the unit, and observe at least one com plete heating cycle and one complete cooling cycle to ensure
proper operation. If discrepancies are observed in either or both operating cycles, or if a suspected malfunction has
F. Condenser Coil, Evaporator Coil, and Condensate Drain Pan
Inspect the condenser coil, evaporator coil, and condensate drain pan at least once each year. Proper inspection and cleaning requires the removal of the unit top. See part B of
this section. The coils are easily cleaned when dry; therefore, inspect and
clean the coils either before or after each cooling season. Remove all obstructions, including weeds and shrubs that interfere with the airflow, through the condenser coil. Straighten bent fins with a fin comb. If coated with dirt or Hnt, clean the coils with a vacuum cleaner, using the soft brush attachment. Be careful not to bend the fins. If coated with oil or grease, clean the coUs with a rtuld detergent-and­water solution. Rinse coils with clear water, using a garden hose. Be careful not to splash water on motors, insulation, wiring, or air filter(s). For best results, spray condenser coU fins from inside to outside the unit. On units with an outer and inner condenser coU, be sure to clean between the coils. Be sure to flush all dirt and debris from the unit base.
Inspect the drain pan and condensate drain line when inspecting the coils. Clean the drain pan and condensate drain by removing all foreign matter from the pan. Flush the pan and drain tube with clear water. Do not splash water on the insulation, motor, wiring, or air fiilter(s). If the drain tube is restricted, cleeur it with a “plumbers snake” or similar probe device.

when making these checkouts.
NOTE: Refer to the heating and/or cooling sequence of oper
ation in this publication as an aid in determining proper con
trol operation.

I. Refrigerant Circuit

Inspect all refrigerant tubing connections and the unit base for oil accumulations annually. Detecting oil generally indi
cates a refrigerant leak. If oil is detected or if low cooUng performance is suspected,
leak-test all refrigerant tubing; using an electronic leak-
detector, halide torch, or liquid-soap solution. If a refriger ant leak is detected, see Step 7, part B, “Refrigerant
Leaks,” in this publication. If no refrigerant leaks are found and low cooling perform
ance is suspected, see Step 9, part B, “Checking and Adjusting Refrigerant Charge,” in this pubhcation.

J. Gas Input

The gas input does not require checking unless improper heating performance is suspected. If a problem exists, refer to Step 8 of this publication.

K. Evaporator Airflow

The heating and/or cooling airflow does not require checking
unless improper performance is suspected. If a problem
exists, be sure that all supply- and return-air grilles are open
and free from obstructions, and that the air filter is clean.
When necessary, refer to Step 9, part C, of this pubhcation to check the system airflow.

L. Metering Device Servicing

See Fig. 15 for metering device components. The piston has a refrigerant metering orifice through it. The retainer forms a seahng surface for hquid hne flare connection. To check,
clean or replace piston:
1. Shut off power to unit.
2. Remove refrigerant from unit using approved refriger ant removed methods.
3. Remove hquid line flare connections from metering device.
4. Note position of arrow on metering device body with
respect to unit.
5. PuU retainer out of body. Be careful not to scratch flare seahng surface. If retainer does not puU out easily, carefuhy use locking phers to remove retainer. Replace scratched or damaged retainer.
6. Slide piston out by inserting a smah soft wire through
metering hole (18-gage thermostat wire). See that metering hole, seahng surface around piston cones and fluted portion of piston are not damaged.
7. Chart on unit access panel ihustrates proper arrange
ment and size of piston. See Table 17 for piston sizes.
8. Clean piston refrigerant metering orifice.
9. Replace reteuner 0-riug Part No. is 99CC501052.

M. Liquid Line Strainer

The Liquid Line Strainer (to protect metering device), is made of wire mesh and located in the hquid hne on inlet
side. Strainer is pressed into the hne. Remove strainer by threading a No. 10 sheet metal screw into strainer and puU­ing the screw with phers.

1. Check for 24 volts between terminals 3 and GR on control head. If you read 24 volts, replace gas valve portion of control head/gas valve assembly.
2. If 24 volts is not present, check flame sensor for cracked ceramic insulator or shorted sensor cable.
3. Use flame simulator Y99AW-1 to test sensing circuit. Follow instructions packaged with simulator. Replace electronic control if sensor circuit is not defective.
Run continuity check to locate break. Clean or replace filter as necessary. Check gas pressure at manifold. Clock gas meter for input. If too low, increase manifold pressure, or replace with correct orifices.
Replace with proper unit—or add additional unit. Clean or replace filter—or remove any restriction. Use faster speed tap—or install optional blower. Dirty air filters-clean or replace. Registers closed, restricted ductwork—open or remove restriction. Check heat anticipator setting on thermostat—readjust.
Check all screws around flue outlets and burner compartment—tighten. LACK OF COMBUSTION AIR.
Cracked heat exchanger—replace. Overfired furnace—reduce input, or change orifices. Check vent for restriction—clean as required. Check orifice to burner alignment.
