MOUNTING PAD

Step 3 — On the Ground: Mount Unit on a Solid,
Level Concrete Pad. See Fig. 2 for pad dimensions.
Ensure pad does not obstruct coil slots in unit base pan. (Slots drain water during heating cycle). Construct pad a minimum of 6 in. thick to provide
clearance under base pan coil slots for drainage and
ice buildup. In areas where prolonged subfreezing
temperatures, drifting or heavy snows occur, in crease clearance to 12 to 18 inches. If climatic conditions dictate, construct an angle iron frame to support unit 12 to 18 in. off concrete base. Cross angle of frame must not obstruct base pan coil slots. Extend a 24-in. gravel apron around pad for condensate and defrost water drainage field.
Step 4 — On the Roof: Mount Unit on a Level Platform or Frame. Unit must be elevated for
proper clearance as described under ground in stallation above. Roof design and water drainage must be planned to prevent unit and its duct flashing from sitting in water.
for system air duct design. When designing and installing ductwork, consider the following.
a. When connecting ductwork to unit, do not drill
holes in area shown below. Coil may be damaged.
b. All units should have field-supplied filters in
stalled in return air ductwork. Recommended
sizes for filters are shown in Table 1. c Avoid abrupt duct size increases and reductions. d. Use flexible connectors between ductwork and
unit to prevent transmission of vibration. When
electric heater is installed, use fireproof asbes-
• tos (or similar heat resistant material) con nector between ductwork and unit discharge connection. Heat resistant duct connector must extend 24 in. from electric heater element.
e. Size ductwork for cooling air quantity (cfm).
The minimum air quantity for safe electric heater operation is;

START-UP

The 50MQ units are equipped with a crankcase heater. It is recommended that heater be energized a minimum of 24 hours before starting unit. To energize heater only, turn the thermostat to “Off’ position and close electrical disconnect to 50MQ unit.
Heat Anticipator Settings for Room Thermostat (HH07AT070) — Set anticipator settings for room
thermostat according to Table 3. These settings may be changed slightly to provide a greater degree of comfort for a particular installation.
Accessory Outdoor Thermostat provides adjustable
outdoor control of accessory electric heater over
10 kw. This thermostat makes contact when a drop
in outdoor temperature occurs. It energizes a
second stage of electric heat when the outdoor temperature setting is reached, provided the room thermostat is on the second stage of heating. Refer to heat load of building for correct outdoor thermostat setting. The accessory emergency heat er relay is manually operated to lock out compres sor and bypass the outdoor thermostat for electric heater operation during heat pump shutdown. See 88EH electric heater Installation, Start-Up and Service Instructions for installation of outdoor thermostat and emergency heater relay.
To Start Unit — (Ensure crankcase heater has been
energized for 24 hours.) Adjust the thermostat as
follows;
1. Set selector switch at “Off.”
2. Set fan switch as desired (“Fan”) (“Auto.”).
3. Turn on main disconnect switch(es) to unit.
4. Set thermostat dial to the desired temperature.
5. Set selector switch at “Heat” or “Cool.” Check system refrigerant charge. See Refrigerant
Charging.
50MQ Unit Single-Phase Compressors of the split
capacitor (PSC) type require an equalized system pressure to start. When supply voltage is within permissible limits and compressor does not start, give compressor a temporary capacitance boost. Use an 88-108 microfarad start capacitor with a bleed resistor wired across the terminals. Connect wires with insulated probes to each capacitor
terminal. Touch probes to each side of run
capacitor or to compressor motor terminals R and
S. Start compressor; pull probes away after 3
seconds Discharge start capacitor. (Two or more
bumps may be necessary to start compressor.) Run compressor for 20 to 30 minutes, then shut off and allow system pressure to equalize. Try restarting without boost capacitor. If after 2 attempts (with out boost capacitor) the compressor does not start, add an accessory start capacitor relay package.

pressure differential of approximately 600 psi between suction (low side) and discharge (high side) to allow pressure equalization. The valve also permits pressure equalization when high-side — low-side pressure differential reaches 90 psig at shutdown. Compressor can then start unloaded. A hissing sound during pressure equalization indicates pressures are equalizing and does not indicate bad valves.
Internal Current and Temperature Sensitive Over
load (Safety Control) resets automatically when
internal compressor motor temperature drops to a safe level (overloads may require up to 45 minutes to reset). When an internal overload is suspected of being open, check by using an ohmmeter or continuity tester. If necessary, refer to Carrier Standard Service Techniques Manual, Chapter 2,
for complete instructions.
Defrost Control, consisting of a defrost timer,
defrost thermostat and defrost relay, interrupts normal system heating operation if enough frost
forms on outdoor coil to impair unit performance.
Defrost control simultaneously stops outdoor fan,
de-energizes reversing valve solenoid to return system to cooling cycle (outdoor unit as con denser, indoor unit as evaporator), and activates accessory electric heater. Unit can defrost every 90
minutes, but will defrost only if required.
For the heat pump to defrost, 2 conditions are
necessary:
1. Defrost timer contacts must be closed.
2. Refrigerant temperature from outdoor unit must be cold enough to cause defrost ther mostat contacts to close. Contacts close at 35
(+0, -6) F.
Every 90 minutes of elapsed running time, the
defrost timer contacts close for 10 seconds. If the defrost thermostat contacts are closed, the unit
defrosts. The defrost timer limits defrosting period to 10 minutes. Normally the frost is removed and the defrost thermostat contacts will open to terminate defrosting before 10 minutes have elapsed. Defrost thermostat contacts open at 65 (+0, -6) F. When defrosting is terminated, the outdoor fan motor and reversing valve solenoid are energized returning unit to heating cycle.

REFRIGERANT CHARGING

Unit refrigerant system is factory charged. When recharging is necessary during heating or cooling season, weigh in total charge indicated in Table 4. (Charge must be weighed in during heating season.) Blow any refrigerant remaining in system before recharging. Standard 1/4-in. Schrader Service Connections (Fig. 9) are provided on high
and low sides of refrigerant system for evacuation and charging.
Dial-a-charge charging cylinder is an accurate device used to recharge systems by weight. These cylinders are available at refrigeration supply firms.
A Carrier Chargemaster® charging device
(Carrier Part No. 38GC680004) may be used to check or adjust refrigerant charge during cooling
season The Chargemaster may also be used as an
alternate method of recharging system.
Chargemaster Operation — Operate unit 10 min
utes before using Chargemaster.
1. Tape Chargemaster feeler bulb to unit suction line. Insulate bulb. Ensure suction line is clean
for good contact with bulb.
2. Connect refrigerant drum to Chargemaster inlet port with drum in position for vapor charging.
3. Connect Chargemaster outlet port (loosely) to unit suction line Schrader valve.
4. Crack valves on refrigerant drum and Charge-
master to purge lines from drum to suction line Schrader valve. After purging lines, close valve on Chargemaster only. Tighten Chargemaster® connection at suction line Schrader valve.
5. Measure outdoor air dry-bulb temperature at unit.
6. Read evaporator temperature at red needle position on Chargemaster temperature gage and
suction line temperature at black needle
position
CAUTION: Do not read evaporator tem perature with Chargemaster valve open.
7. Enter 50MQ Chargemaster Charging Chart,
Table 5, at outdoor air temperature (step 5)
and evaporator temperature (step 6). Find the
suction line temperature required for correct
system charge. If actual suction line tem
perature (step 6) is higher than table value, the
system is undercharged. If suction line tem perature is lower than table value, the system is overcharged.
Example- At outdoor air temperature of 85 F
and evaporator temperature of 40 F, the system will be correctly charged at 48 F (±2 F) suctior line temperature.
Page 8
8. Add charge by slowly opening Chargemaster® valve. If necessary, reduce charge by bleeding at liquid line Schrader valve. Check outdoor air
and evaporator temperature during procedure. If they change, refer back to Chargemaster Charging Chart for new value.
Correct use of Chargemaster ensures an opti
mum refrigerant charge will be in system when conditions and system components are normal. However, the Chargemaster does not solve or fix
system abnormalities It indicates correct charge for condition of system. It will not make correc tions for dirty filters, slow fans, excessively long or short suction lines, or other abnormal conditions. This charging device ensures that a correct relation ship exists between outdoor temperature, evap orator temperature, and suction line temperature on a specific system.
Table 5 — 50MQ Chargemaster® Charging Chart
6. Remove compressor hold-down bolts. Lift com pressor out.
CAUTION: Aluminum tubing is used in 50MQ unit coils. Do not overiieat or place excessive strain on tubing or damage may result.
