INSTALLATION

Jobsite Survey

Complete the following checks before installation.

1. Consult local building codes and the NEC (National

Electrical Code) ANSI/NFPA 70 for special installation requirements.

2. Determine unit location (from project plans) or select

unit location.

3. Check for possible overhead obstructions which may

interfere with unit lifting or rigging.

Step 1 — Plan for Unit Location

Select a location for the unit and its support system (curb or other) that provides for the minimum clearances required for safety. This includes the clearance to combustible surfaces, unit performance and service access below, around and above unit as specified in unit drawings. See Fig. 2.

NOTE: Consider also the effect of adjacent units. Unit may be installed directly on wood flooring or on Class

A, B, or C roof--covering material when roof curb is used. Do not install unit in an indoor location. Do not locate air

inlets near exhaust vents or other sources of contaminated air.

Fig. 2 -- Service Clearance Dimensional Drawing

Although unit is weatherproof, avoid locations that permit water from higher level runoff and overhangs to fall onto the unit.

Select a unit mounting system that provides adequate height to allow for removal and disposal of frost and ice that will form during the heating--defrost mode as well as allow installation of condensate trap per requirements. RefertoStep9—InstallExternalCondensate Trap and Line – for required trap dimensions.

Roof Mount —

Check building codes for weight distribution requirements. Unit operating weight is shown in Table 1.

Step 3 — Inspect unit

Inspect unit for transportation damage. File any claim with transportation agency.

Step 2 — Plan for Sequence of Unit Installation

The support method used for this unit will dictate different sequences for the steps of unit installation. For example, on curb--mounted units, some accessories must be installed on the unit before the unit is placed on the curb. Review the following for recommended sequences for installation steps.

Curb--mounted installation —

Install curb Install field--fabricated ductwork inside curb Install accessory thru--base service connection package

(affects curb and unit) (refer to accessory installation instructions for details)

Prepare bottom condensate drain connection to suit planned condensate line routing (refer to Step 9 for details)

Rig and place unit Install outdoor air hood Install condensate line trap and piping Make electrical connections Install other accessories

Pad--mounted installation —

Prepare pad and unit supports Check and tighten the bottom condensate drain

connection plug Rig and place unit Convert unit to side duct connection arrangement Install field--fabricated ductwork at unit duct openings Install outdoor air hood Install condensate line trap and piping Make electrical connections Install other accessories

Frame--mounted installation —

Frame--mounted applications generally follow the sequence for a curb installation. Adapt as required to suit specific installation plan.

Confirm before installation of unit that voltage, amperage and circuit protection requirements listed on unit data plate agree with power supply provided.

Step 4 — Provide Unit Support

Roof Curb Mount —

Accessory roof curb details and dimensions are shown in Fig. 3. Assemble and install accessory roof curb in accordance with instructions shipped with the curb.

NOTE: The gasketing of the unit to the roof curb is critical for a watertight seal. Install gasket supplied with the roof curb as shown in Fig. 3. Improperly applied gasket can also result in air leaks and poor unit performance.

Curb should be level. This is necessary for unit drain to function properly. Unit leveling tolerances are show in Fig. 4. Refer to Accessory Roof Curb Installation Instructions for additional information as required.

Install insulation, cant strips, roofing felt, and counter flashing as shown. Ductwork must be attached to curb and

not to the unit. The accessory thru--the--base power package must be installed before the unit is set on the roof curb.

If electric and control wiring is to be routed through the basepan, attach the accessory thru--the--base service connections to the basepan in accordance with the accessory installation instructions.

Slab Mount (Horizontal Units Only) —

Provide a level concrete slab that extends a minimum of 6 in. (150 mm) 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.

Alternate Unit Support (In Lieu of Curb or Slab Mount) —

A non--combustible sleeper rail can be used in the unit curb support area. If sleeper rails cannot be used, support the long sides of the unit with a minimum of 3 equally spaced 4--in. x 4--in. (102 mm x 102 mm) pads on each side.

Step 5 — Field Fabricate Ductwork

Cabinet return-air static pressure (a negative condition) shall not exceed 0.35 in. wg (87 Pa) with economizer or

0.45 in. wg (112 Pa) without economizer. For vertical ducted applications, secure all ducts to roof

curb and building structure. Do not connect ductwork to

unit.

WARNING

PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD

Failure to follow this warning could cause personal injury.

For vertical supply and return units, tools or parts could drop into ductwork and cause an injury. Install a 90--degree turn in the return ductwork between the unit and the conditioned space. If a 90--degree elbow cannot be installed, then a grille of sufficient strength and density should be installed to prevent objects from falling into the conditioned space. Due to electric heater, supply duct will require 90--degree elbow.

Step 6 — Rig and Place Unit

Keep unit upright and do not drop. Spreader bars are not required if top crating is left on unit. Rollers may be used to move unit across a roof. Level by using unit frame as a reference. See Table 1 and Fig. 5 for additional information.

50HCQA

Insulate and weatherproof all external ductwork, joints, and roof openings with counter flashing and mastic in accordance with applicable codes.

Ducts passing through unconditioned spaces must be insulated and covered with a vapor barrier.

If a plenum return is used on a vertical unit, the return should be ducted through the roof deck to comply with applicable fire codes.

For Units with Accessory Electric Heaters —

Horizontal applications require a minimum clearance to combustible surfaces of 1--in (25 mm) from duct for first 12--in (305 mm) away from unit. Vertical applications do not require a minimum clearance.

Minimum clearance is not required around ductwork. Outlet grilles must not lie directly below unit discharge.

NOTE: A 90--degree elbow must be provided in the ductwork to comply with UL (Underwriters Laboratories) code for use with electric heat.

Lifting holes are provided in base rails as shown in Fig. 5. Refer to rigging instructions on unit.

UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage.

All panels must be in place when rigging. Unit is not designed for handling by fork truck.

C09022

Fig. 18 -- Weatherproof Cover Installation

Non--powered type: This type requires the field

installation of a general--purpose 125--volt 15--A circuit powered from a source elsewhere in the building. Observe national and local codes when selecting wire size, fuse or breaker requirements and disconnect switch size and location. Route 125--v power supply conductors into the bottom of the utility box containing the duplex receptacle.

Unit--powered type: A unit--mounted transformer is factory--installed to stepdown the main power supply voltage to the unit to 115--v at the duplex receptacle. This option also includes a manual switch with fuse, located in a utility box and mounted on a bracket behind the convenience outlet; access is through the unit’s control box access panel. See Fig. 17.

The primary leads to the convenience outlet transformer are not factory--connected. Selection of primary power source is a customer--option. If local codes permit, the transformer primary leads can be connected at the line--side terminals on the unit--mounted non--fused disconnect or HACR breaker switch; this will provide service power to the unit when the unit disconnect switch or HACR switch is open. Other connection methods will result in the convenience outlet circuit being de--energized when the unit disconnect or HACR switch is open. See Fig. 19.

Duty Cycle: the unit--powered convenience outlet has a duty cycle limitation. The transformer is intended to provide power on an intermittent basis for service tools, lamps, etc; it is not intended to provide 15--amps loading for continuous duty loads (such as electric heaters for overnight use). Observe a 50% limit on circuit loading above 8--amps (i.e., limit loads exceeding 8--amps to 30 minutes of operation every hour).

Test the GFCI receptacle by pressing the TEST button on the face of the receptacle to trip and open the receptacle. Check for proper grounding wires and power line phasing if the GFCI receptacle does not trip as required. Press the RESET button to clear the tripped condition.

Fig. 19 -- Powered Convenience Outlet Wiring

Using unit--mounted convenience outlets: Units with unit--mounded convenience outlet circuits will often require that two disconnects be opened to de--energize all power to the unit. Treat all units as electrically energized until the convenience outlet power is also checked and de--energization is confirmed. Observe National Electrical Code Article 210, Branch Circuits, for use of convenience outlets.

Fuse on power type: The factory fuse is a Bussman “Fusetron” T--15, non--renewable screw--in (Edison base) type plug fuse.

Factory--Option Thru--Base Connections —

This service connection kit consists of a

bulkhead connector and a

/4--in electrical bulkhead

/2--in electrical

connector, all factory--installed in the embossed (raised) section of the unit basepan in the condenser section. The

/2--in bulkhead connector enables the low--voltage control

wires to pass through the basepan. The

/4--in electrical bulkhead connector allows the high--voltage power wires to pass through the basepan. See Fig. 20.

Check tightness of connector lock nuts before connecting electrical conduits.

electronic thermostat, configure it for “non--heat pump” operation. Locate the thermostat accessory on a solid wall in the conditioned space to sense average temperature in accordance with the thermostat installation instructions.

If the thermostat contains a logic circuit requiring 24--v power, use a thermostat cable or equivalent single leads of different colors with minimum of seven leads. If the thermostat does not require a 24--v source (no “C” connection required), use a thermostat cable or equivalent with minimum of six leads. Check the thermostat installation instructions for additional features which might require additional conductors in the cable.

conduit to the internal disconnect (if unit is so equipped) or to the external disconnect (through unit side panel). A hole must be field cut in the main control box bottom on the left side so the 24--v control connections can be made. Connect the control power conduit to the unit control box at this hole.

Units without Thru--Base Connections —

1. Install power wiring conduit through side panel openings. Install conduit between disconnect and control box.

2. Install power lines to terminal connections as shown in Fig. 16.

All Units: Voltage to compressor terminals during operation must be within voltage range indicated on unit nameplate. See Table 10. 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 10, Note 2 (see page 42) to determine the percent of voltage imbalance. Operation on improper line voltage or excessive phase imbalance constitutes abuse and may cause damage to electrical components. Such operation would invalidate any applicable Carrier warranty.

Field Control Wiring —

C08637

For wire runs up to 50 ft. (15 m), use no. 18 AWG (American Wire Gage) insulated wire (35_C minimum). For50to75ft.(15to23m),useno.16AWGinsulated wire (35_C minimum). For over 75 ft. (23 m), use no. 14 AWG insulated wire (35_C minimum). All wire sizes larger than no. 18 AWG cannot be directly connected to the thermostat and will require a junction box and splice at the thermostat.

Field Wiring

(Note 2)

Fig. 21 -- Typical Low--Voltage Control Connections

The 50HCQA unit requires an external temperature control device. This device can be a thermostat (field--supplied) or a PremierLink controller (available as factory--installed option or as field--installed accessory, for use on a Carrier Comfort Network or as a stand alone control) or the RTU--MP Controller for Building Management Systems using non--CCN protocols (RTU--MP is available as a factory--installed option only).

Thermostat —

Install a Carrier--approved accessory 2 stage Cooling/Heating thermostat according to installation instructions included with the accessory. The 50HCQ models do not require a thermostat with an O function to control the reversing valve operation. If using an

Unit without Thru--Base Connection Kit —

Pass the thermostat control wires through the hole provided in the corner post; then feed the wires through the raceway built into the corner post to the control box. Pull the wires over to the terminal strip on the upper--left corner of the Central Terminal Board (CTB). See Fig. 22.

NOTE: If thru--the--bottom connections accessory is used, refer to the accessory installation instructions for information on routing power and control wiring.

Heat Anticipator Settings —

Set heat anticipator settings at 0.14 amp for the first stage and 0.14 amp for second--stage heating, when available.
