COMPLETE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS before
installing.
Consult local building codes and National Electrical Code
(NEC) ANSI/NFPA 70-1987 for special installation
requirements.
Provide sufficient space for coil airflow clearance, wiring,
and servicing unit. See Fig. 1 and 2. Locate unit where sup
ply and return air ducts can be conveniently brought out to
unit duct connections.
Unit may be placed with duct side as close to building as
top removal, duct connections and power connections per
mit. Position unit so water or ice from roof does not drop
directly on top of unit or in front of coil. Make provisions for
condensate drainage and defrost water disposal. Maintain a
4-ft clearance above unit for vertical air discharge.
Roof installation method for 50QQ depends on building con
struction and special requirements of local building codes.
Ensure that roof can support unit weight. Protect unit from
prevailing winds to ensure adequate defrost.
Step 2—Mount Unit
NOTES:

In areas of snowfall or subfreezing temperatures when elevated
frame Is used Dimension A is 48-in., Dimension B is 42-in. In areas
where elevated frame is not used Dimension A is 45-in , Dimension
B is 39-in
Allow a 3-ft service clearance at front and rear sides of unit
ON THE GROUND—Mount heat pump on an elevated
frame positioned on a level pad. See Fig. 2 for pad dimen
Fig. 2—Pad Dimensions
sions. Ensure pad does not obstruct coil slots in unit basepan. (Slots drain water during heating and defrost cycles.
See Fig. 2 for drain slot locations.) Construct pad to provide
clearance under basepan coil slots for drainage and ice
buildup. In areas where prolonged subfreezing temperatures
or snowfall occur, increase clearance to 12 to 18-in. by con
structing an angle-iron frame to support unit 12 to 18-in. off
base. Design cross angle of frame so as not to obstruct basepan coil slots. See Fig. 3 for recommended frame construc
tion. Alternate construction should follow dimensions.
Extend a 24-in. gravel apron around pad for condensate and
defrost water drainage field.
ON THE ROOF—Mount unit on a level platform or frame.
Elevate unit for proper clearance as described under ground
insteJlation above. Design roof and plan water runoff so as
to prevent unit and its duct flashing from sitting in water,
in accordance with eJl applicable codes.
Step 3—Make Ductwork Connections
CONNECT RETURN AND SUPPLY AIR DUCT
WORK—Connect ductwork to unit supply and return air
duct connections. Refer to Fig. 1 and Table 1 for unit supply
and return air connection sizes and locations.
Flanges are provided on Models 018-048 for round duct con
nections, on Model 060 for rectanguleu- duct connections.
Accessory duct flange kit is available for squeire or rectan
gular connections on 018-048 units. Refer to accessory
Installation Instructions on page 5 for connections to
ductwork.

When designing and installing ductwork, consider the
following:
1. When connecting ductwork to 042, 048 and 060 units,
do not drill deeper than one inch in shaded area shown
below. Coil may be damaged.
2.
Install field-supplied filters in return air ductwork. Rec
ommended sizes for filters are shown in Table 1.
3.
Avoid abrupt duct size increases and reductions.
Abrupt change in duct size adversely affects air
performance.
4.
Use flexible connectors between ductwork and unit to
prevent transmission of vibration. When electric heater
is installed, use fireproof canvas (or similar heat resis
tant material) connector between ductwork and unit
discharge connection. If flexible duct is used, insert a
sheet metal sleeve inside duct. Heat resistant duct con
nector (or sheet meted sleeve) must extend 24-in. from
electric heat element.
5. Size ductwork for cooling air quantity (cfm). The mini
mum air quantity for proper electric heater operation is
listed below. Heater limit switches may trip at air
quantities below those recommended.

START-UP
The 50QQ unit compressors Eire equipped with crankcase
heaters. It is recommended that heater be energized a mini
mum of 24 hours before starting unit. To energize heater
only, set thermostat at OFF position; turn on unit main
power at disconnect switch.
Heat Anticipator Settings for Room Thermostat—Set
anticipator settings for room thermostat according to sepa
rate accessory electric heater Instedlation Instructions.
door control of accessory electric heaters of 15 kW and
leirger. This thermostat makes contact when a drop in out
door temperature occurs. It energizes a stage of electric
heat when the outdoor temperature setting is reached, pro
vided the room thermostat is on the second stage of heat
ing. An outdoor thermostat is recommended for the second
stage of electric heat. Refer to heat load of building and unit
capacity to determine the correct outdoor thermostat
setting.
The accessory supplemental heat relay is required when 2
outdoor thermostats are used. It is automaticeilly energized
by the manually operated supplementeil heat switch in the
indoor thermostat subbase. The indoor thermostat locks out
compressor and the relay bypasses the outdoor thermostats
for electric heater operation during heat pump shutdown.
When one outdoor thermostat is used, a supplemental heat
relay is not required. The supplemental heat switch in the
indoor thermostat subbase bypasses outdoor thermostat,
locks out compressor and activates electric heater.
MOUNT OUTDOOR THERMOSTAT-Locate maximum
of 2 outdoor thermostats in the controls section on the cen
ter post to the left of the electric heater. Fasten with screws
in holes provided. Route capillary tube per instructions in
thermostat package.
MOUNT SUPPLEMENTAL HEAT RELAY in low-voltage
section of control box to right of low-voltage connections,
using holes provided.
To Start Unit—Check that main power is on and that com
pressor crankcase heater has been energized for at least 24
hours.
1. Check that heater main power is on as applicable.
2. Set selector switch at OFF.
3. Set fan switch as desired (FAN) (AUTO.).
4. Set thermostat died at the desired temperature.
5. Set selector switch at HEAT or COOL. Check system
refrigerant charge as described under Service.

age is within 10% limit and compressor does not start,
check the start thermistor with an ohmmeter.
CHECKING START THERMISTOR
1. Shut off all power to unit and wait 10 minutes for
thermistor to cool to ambient temperature.
2. Remove thermistor from circuit.
3. Measure resistance of thermistor with ohmmeter. Nor
mal resistance readings are 25 ohms ± 20% at 75 F
ambient temperature.
4. If ohmmeter resistance reading is not within ± 20%,
the thermistor is defective and must be replaced.
If start thermistor is good and compressor does not start,
disconnect the thermistor from starting circuit and give
compressor a temporary capacitance boost. Run compressor
for 10 minutes, then shut off and eillow system pressure to
equalize. Reconnect start thermistor and try restarting
compressor without boost capacitor. If after 2 attempts the
compressor does not start, remove thermistor and add an
accessory start capacitor and relay.
SERVICE
A WARNING
Before installing or servicing unit, turn off main power
to system. There may be more than one disconnect
switch. Turn off accessory heater power if applicable.
Electrical shock can cause personal injury or death.
Unit Controls and Safety Devices
The following controls are used on all units:
HIGH-PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE (Safety Control) is
located in compressor. Relief valve opens at a pressure dif
ferential of approximately 450 psi between suction (low
side) and discharge (high side) to allow pressure
equalization.
INTERNAL CURRENT AND TEMPERATURE SENSI
TIVE OVERLOAD (Safety Control) resets automatically
when internal compressor motor temperature drops to a
safe level. When an internal overload is suspected of being
open, check by using an ohmmeter or continuity tester.
DEFROST CONTROL, consisting of a control board and
defrost thermostat, interrupts normeJ system heating oper
ation to remove frost and ice formation on outdoor coil.
Frost impairs unit performance. Defrost control simulta
neously stops outdoor fan, energizes reversing valve sole
noid to switch system into cooling cycle (outdoor unit as
condenser, indoor unit as evaporator), and activates acces
sory electric heater. Unit can defrost every 90 minutes, but
will do so only if outdoor temperatures are in the frosting
temperature zone.
For heat pump to defrost, 2 conditions are necessary:
1. Defrost timer contacts must be closed.
2. Refrigerant temperature must be cold enough to cause
defrost thermostat contacts to close. Contacts close at
27 ± 5 F.
Every 90 minutes of elapsed running time, the defrost timer
contacts close for 10 seconds. If the defrost thermostat con
tacts 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 80 ± 6 F. When
defrosting is terminated, the outdoor fan motor is energized
and reversing valve solenoid is de-energized, returning unit
to heating cycle.
The 90-minute period to check for defrost can be changed to
50 or 30 minutes by moving a jumper wire on the defrost

2. Start unit and allow to operate until operating condi
tions stabilize and pressures level out.
3. Evaluate system performance and refrigerant charge
level by determining following conditions:
a. High- and low-side pressure gage reading.
b. Dry-bulb temperature of inlet air at outdoor coil.
c. Dry-bulb temperature of inlet air at indoor coil. This
may be read at central return-eiir grille.
d. Compare readings to those listed in Heating Operat
ing Pressures section of charging chart inside unit
(refer to Table 6, part A). The Heating Operating
Pressures portion of the chart is for checking charge
only when unit is in heating mode and outside tem
peratures are below 60 F.
If charge adjustment is necessary, charge can be adjusted
accurately only by blowing the charge, evacuating system,
and recharging unit with correct charge as listed on unit rat
ing plate. A volumetric charging device such as Dial-acharge is recommended for use when recharging.
Cooling Mode—A superheat charging label is affixed to elec
trical access door. The label includes a Field Superheat
Charging table (see Table 6, peirt B) and a Required Suction
Tube Temperature (F) chart (see Table 6, part C).
An accurate superheat-, thermocouple-, or thermistor-type
thermometer, a sling psychrometer, and a gage manifold are
required when using superheat charging method for evalu
ating unit charge. Do not use mercury or small dial-type
thermometers. They are not adequate for this type of
measurement.
Proceed as follows:
1. Remove caps from low- and high-pressure service
fittings.
Using hoses with valve core depressors, attach low-and

add refrigerant if actual temperature is more than 3 F
higher than proper suction tube temperature, or
remove refrigerant if actueJ temperature is more than 3
for dual-piston components. The pistons have a refrigerant
metering orifice through them. The retainers form a stop for
the pistons in the refrigerant bypass mode, and a sealing
surface for liquid line flare connection. To check, clean or
replace piston:
1. Shut off power to unit.
2. Remove refrigerant from unit using approved refriger
ant removal methods.
3. Remove liquid line flare connections from metering
device.
4. Note position of arrow on metering device body with
respect to unit.
5. Pull retainer out of body. Be careful not to scratch flare
sealing surface. If retainer does not pull out easily,
carefully use locking pliers to remove retainer. Replace
scratched or deimaged retainer.
6. Slide piston out by inserting a small soft wire through
metering hole (18-gage thermostat wire). See that
metering hole, sealing surface around piston cones and
fluted portion of piston are not damaged.
7. Chart on unit access panel illustrates proper arrange
ment and sizes of piston.
8. Clean piston refrigerant metering orifice.
9. Replace retainer 0-ring before reassembling metering
device. 0-ring Part No. is 99CC501052.
LIQUID LINE STRAINERS (to protect metering device),
are made of wire mesh and located in the liquid line on each
side of the metering device. The strainers are pressed into
the line. Remove strainer by threading a #10 sheet metal
screw into strainer and pulling the screw with pliers.
Compressor Removal—See Table 7 for compressor informa
tion and Fig. 12 for component location. Follow safety

6. Remove wraparound crankcase heater (if used) from
compressor base.
7. Remove compressor holddown bolts and lift compres
sor out.
8. Carefully unbraze suction and discharge line piping
stubs from compressor. If oil vapor in piping stubs
ignites, use quenching cloth.
A CAUTION
Muffler may contain quemtity of oil.
9. Braze piping stubs (removed in step 8) on new
compressor.
10. Install new compressor in unit. Braze suction and dis
charge lines to compressor piping stubs (at points
where cut, step 5) using field-supplied copper cou
plings. Ensure compressor holddown bolts are in place.
Connect wiring.
11. Clean system. Add new suction line filter drier as
described below. Refer to Fig. 10.
NOTE: If a compressor failure was caused by motor
winding burnout, the byproducts of the burnout must
be separated from the circulating refrigerant. This
must be done before the byproducts enter the reversing
vedve or accumulator emd render peu-ts inoperative.
Burnout byproducts can cause future system operating
problems if left in the system.
Clean the system by installing a suction line drier in
the refrigerant line where the suction gas enters the
reversing valve. During the cooling cycle, this is the
line from the indoor coil running across the top of com
pressor compartment; during heating cycle, install
drier in line between outdoor coil and reversing valve.
If possible, run unit in cooling mode when cleaning sys
tem as installation of temporary suction drier is
simplified.
For drier installation during heating cycle, cut line
between outdoor coil and reversing valve, install fit
tings and tubing, and install suction filter drier. To pro
vide protection for the reversing valve, do not place fil
ter drier between reversing valve and accumulator.
Since the suction drier works in one mode only, tempo
rarily wire the unit in the selected mode (heating or
cooling, based on suction drier location). To ensure
cooling operation only, instiJl a jumper between termineds R and O on the low-voltage terminal board. For
heating operation only, remove and insulate one of the
reversing valve solenoid leads. Run unit for 48 hours
emd check oil for acidity. If satisfactory, remove suc
tion line drier. Refer to and follow procedure under
Metering Device Servicing for cleaning of pistons.
Rewire unit to normal conditions.
12. Triple-evacuate and recharge unit. See Refrigerant
Charging.
Filter Drier—Install an accessory reversible, liquid line filter
drier assembly, following the instructions in accessory
package.
NOTE: Follow instructions carefully as piston locations are
reversed from those shown when a filter drier is not used.
when lost. See Table 7 for oil recharge. Use Carrier PP33-1,
Texaco Capella WF-32 or Suniso 3GS oil.

power is supplied to unit, transformer (TRAN) is energized.
If crankcase heater switch (CHS) is closed and outside tem
perature is below 65 F, crankcase heater (CH) will be
energized.
COOLING—On a call for cooling, thermostat makes circuit
R-0, R-Y and R-G. When room temperature rises to within 2
degrees of control setting of thermostat, circuit R-O makes,
energizing reversing vedve solenoid (RVS). Unit is now in
standby condition for cooling. As room temperature rises,
the second-stage bulb makes, allowing a circuit (R-Y)
through low-pressure switch (LPS) to contactor (C), starting
compressor (COMP) and outdoor fan motor (OFM). Circuit
R-G energizes indoor fan relay (IFR) starting indoor fan
motor (IFM).
When thermostat is satisfied, contacts open de-energizing
contactor. Indoor fan relay, compressor and motor stop.
HEATING—On a call for heat, thermostat makes circuits
R-Y and R-G. Circuit R-Y is completed, allowing circuit
through low-pressure switch (LPS) to contactor (C), starting
compressor (COMP) and outdoor fan motor (OFM). Circuit
R-G also is completed, energizing indoor fan relay (IFR) and
starting indoor fan motor (IFM).
Should room temperature continue to fall, circuit R-W is
made through second-stage thermostat bulb. If optional
electric heat package is used, a sequencer is energized bring
ing on first bank of supplemental electric heat. When ther
mostat is satisfied, contacts open, de-energizing contactor
and sequencer. Motors and heaters de-energize.
DEFROST—Defrost board (DB) is a time/temperature con
trol which includes a field-selectable time period between
check if defrost is necessary (30, 50 and 90 minutes). Elec
tronic timer and defrost cycle start only when contactor is
energized and defrost therniostat (DFT) is closed.
Defrost mode is identical to cooling mode except outdoor
fan motor stops and a bank of optional electric heat turns
on to warm air supplying the conditioned space.
