WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could cause personal
injury or death.
Before performing service or maintenance operations
on the fan system, shut off all unit power and tag--out
the unit disconnect switch. Do not reach into the fan
section with power still applied to unit.
Supply Fan (Belt--Drive)
The supply fan system consists of a forward--curved
centrifugal blower wheel on a solid shaft with two
concentric type bearings, one on each side of the blower
housing. A fixed--pitch driven pulley is attached to the fan
shaft and an adjustable--pitch driver pulley is on the
motor. The pulleys are connected using a “V” type belt.
(See Fig. 5.)
Belt
Check the belt condition and tension quarterly. Inspect the
belt for signs of cracking, fraying or glazing along the
3
inside surfaces. Check belt tension by using a spring--force
tool (such as Browning’s Part Number “Belt Tension
Checker” or equivalent tool); tension should be 6--lbs at a
5/8--in. deflection when measured at the centerline of the
belt span. This point is at the center of the belt when
measuring the dista nce between the motor shaft and the
blower shaft.
NOTE: Without the spring--tension tool, place a straight
edge across the belt surface at the pulleys, then de f lect the
belt at m id--span using one finger to a 1/2--in. deflection.
Adjust belt tension by loosening the motor mounting plate
front bolts and rear bolt and sliding the plate toward the
fan (to reduce tension) or away from fan (to increase
tension). Ensure the blower shaft and the motor shaft are
parallel to each other (pulleys aligned). Tighten all bolts
when finished.
To replace the belt:
50TC
1. Use a belt with same section type or similar size. Do
not substitute a “FHP” type belt. When installing the
new belt, do not use a tool (screwdriver or pry--bar) to
force the belt over the pulley flanges, this will stress
the belt and cause a reduction in belt life.
2. Loose n the motor mounting plate front bolts and rear
bolts.
3. Push the motor and its mounting plate towards the
blower housing as close as possible to reduce the center distance between fan shaft and motor shaft.
4. Re move the belt by gently lifting the old belt over
one of the pulleys.
5. Install the new belt by gently sliding the belt over
both pulleys and then sliding the motor and plate
away from the fa n housing until prope r tension is
achieved.
6. Check the alignment of the pulleys, adjust if necessary.
7. Tighte n all bolts.
8. Check the t ension after a few hours of runtime and
re--adjust as required.
Adjustable--Pitch Pulley on
Motor
The motor pulley is an adjustable--pitch type that allows a
servicer to implement changes in the fan wheel speed to
match as--installed ductwork systems. The pulley consists
of a fixed flange side that faces the motor (secured to the
motor shaft) and a movable flange side that can be rotated
around the fixed flange side that increases or reduces the
pitch diameter of this driver pulley. (See Fig. 6.)
To change fan speed:
1. Shut off unit power supply.
2. Loose n belt by loosening fan motor mounting nuts.
(See Fig. 5.)
3. Loose n movable pulley flange setscrew. (See Fig. 6.)
4. Screw movable flange toward fixed flange to increase
speed and away from fixed flange to decrease speed.
Increasing fan speed increases load on motor. Do not
exceed maximum speed specified.
5. Set movable flange at nearest keyway of pulley hub
and tighten setscrew to torque specifications.
To align fan and motor pulleys:
1. Loosen fan pulley setscrews.
2. Slide fan pulley along fan shaft. Make angular alignment by loosening motor from mounting.
3. Tighten fan pulley setscrews and motor mounting
bolts to torque specifications.
4. Re check belt tension.
C07075
Fig. 6 -- Supply--Fan Pulley Adjustment
Bearings
This fan system uses bearings featuring concentric split
locking collars. The collars are tightened through a cap
screw bridging the split portion of the collar. The cap
screw has a Torx T25 socket head. To tighten the locking
collar: Hold the locking collar tightly against the inner
race of the bearing and torque the cap screw to 65--70
in--lb (7.4--7.9 Nm). See Fig. 7.
As the pitch diameter is changed by adjusting the position
of the movable flange, the centerline on this pulley shifts
laterally (along themotor shaft). This creates a
requirement for a realignment of the pulleys a fter any
adjustment of the movable flange. Also reset the belt
tension after each realignment.
Check the condition of the motor pulley for signs of wear.
Glazing of the belt contact surfaces and erosion on these
surfaces are signs of improper belt tension and/or belt
slippage. Pulley replacement may be necessary.
C08121

Motor
When replacing the motor, also replace the external--tooth
lock washer (star washer) under the motor mounting base;
this is part of the motor grounding system. Ensure the
teeth on the lock washer are in contact with the motor ’s
painted base. Tighten motor mounting bolts to 120 +/ -- 12
in--lbs.
Changing fan wheel speed by changing pulleys: The
horsepower rating of the belt is primarily dic tated by the
pitch diameter of the smaller pulley in the drive system
(typically the motor pulley in these units). Do not install a
replacement motor pulley with a smaller pitch diameter
than provided on the original factory pulley. Change fan
wheel speed by changing the fan pulley (larger pitch
diameter to reduce wheel speed, smaller pitch diameter to
increase wheel speed) or select a new system (both
pulleys and matching belt(s)).
Before changing pulleys to increase fan wheel speed,
check the fan performance at the target speed and airflow
rate to dete rmine new motor loading (bhp). Use the fan
performance tables or use the Packaged Rooftop Builder
software program. Confirm that the motor in this unit is
capable of operating a t the new operating condition. Fan
shaft loading increases dramatically as wheel speed is
increased.
To reduce vibration, replace the motor’s adjustable pitch
pulley with a fixed pitch pulley (after the final airflow
balance adjustment). This will reduce the amount of
vibration generated by the motor/belt--drive system.

WARNING
UNIT OPERATION AND SAFETY HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could cause personal
injury, death and/or equipment damage.
This system uses PuronR refrigerant which has
higher pressures than R--22 and other refrigerants. No
other refrigerant may be used in this system. Gauge
set, hoses, and recovery system m ust be designed to
handle Puron refrigerant. If unsure about equipment,
consult the equipment manufacturer.
Condenser Coil
The condenser coil is fabricated with round tube copper
hairpins and plate fins of various materials and/or coatings
(see Model Number Format in the Appendix to identify
the materials provided in this unit). The coil may be
one--row or composite--type two--row. Composite two--row
coils are two single--row coils fabricated with a single
return bend end tubesheet.
Condenser Coil Maintenance and Cleaning
Recommendation
Routine cleaning of coil surfaces is essential to maintain
proper operation of the unit. Elimination of contamination
and removal of harmful residues will greatly increase the
life of the coil and extend the life of the unit. The
following maintenance and cleaning procedures are
recommended as part of the routine maintenance activities
to extend the life of the coil.
Remove Surface Loaded
Surface loaded fibers or dirt should be removed with a
vacuum cleaner. If a vacuum cleaner is not available, a
soft non--metallic bristle brush may be used. In either
case, the tool should be applie d in the direction of the fins.
Coil surfaces can be easily damaged (fin edges can be
easily bent over and damage to the coating of a protected
coil) if the tool is applied across the fins.
NOTE: Use of a water stream, such as a garden hose,
against a surface loaded coil will drive the fibers and dirt
into the coil. This will make cleaning efforts more
difficult. Surface loaded fibers must be completely
removed prior to using low velocity clean water rinse.
Periodic Clean Water
A periodic clean water rinse is very beneficial for coils
that are applied in coastal or industrial environments.
However, it is very important that the water rinse is made
with a very low velocity water stream to avoid damaging
the fin edges. Monthly cleaning as described below is
recommended.
Routine Cleaning of Coil
Periodic cleaning with TotalineR environmentally sound
coil cleaner is essential to extend the life of coils. This
cleanerisavailablefromCarrierReplacement
Components Division as part number P902--0301 for a one
gallon container, and part number P902--0305 for a 5
gallon container. It is recommended that all coils,
including standard a luminum, pre--coated, copper/copper
or E--coatedcoils becleanedwith theTotaline
environmentally sound coil cleaner as describe d below.
Coil cleaning should be part of the unit’s regularly
scheduled maintenance procedures to ensure long life of
the coil. Failure to clean the coils may result in reduced
durability in the environment.
Avoid use of:
S coil brighteners
S acid cleaning prior to painting
S hi gh pressure washers
S poor quality water for cleaning
Totalineenvironmenta llysoundcoilcleane ris
nonflammable, hypo allergenic, non bacteri al, and a
USDA accepted biodegradable agent that will not harm
the coil or surrounding components such as electrical
wiring, painted metal surfaces, or insulation. Use of
non--recomm ended coil cleaners is strongly discouraged
since coil and unit durability could be affected.

Two--Row Coils
Clean coil as follows:
1. Turn off unit power, tag disconnect.
2. Re move top panel screws on condenser end of unit.
3. Re move condenser coil corner post. See Fig. 8. To
hold top panel open, place coil corner post between
top panel and center post. See Fig. 9.
50TC
Fig. 8 -- Cleaning Condenser Coil
C08205
6. Use a water hose or other suitable equipment to flush
down between the 2 coil sections to remove dirt and
debris. Clean the outer surfaces with a stiff brush in
the normal manner.
7. Secure inner and outer coil rows together with a
field--supplied fastener.
8. Reposition the outer coil section and remove the coil
corner post from between the top panel and center
post. Reinstall the coil corner post and replace all
screws.
Failure to follow this caution may result in accelerated
corrosion of unit parts.
Harsh chemicals, household bleach or acid or basic
cleaners should not be used to clean outdoor or indoor
coils of any kind. These cleaners can be very difficult
to rinse out of the coil and can accelerate corrosion at
the fin/tube interface where dissimilar materials are in
contact. If there is dirt below the surface of the coil,
use the Totaline e nvironmentally sound coil cleaner.
C08206

CAUTION
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in reduced
unit performance or unit shutdown.
High velocity water from a pressure washer, garden
hose, or compressed air should never be used to
clean a coil. The force of the water or air jet will
bend the fin edges and increase airside pressure drop.
1. Proper eye protection such as safety glasses is recommended during mixing and application.
2. Remove all surface loaded fibers and dirt with a vacuum
cleaner as described above.
3. Thoroughly wet finned surfaces with clean water and
a low velocity garden hose, being careful not t o bend
fins.
4. Mix Totaline environmentally sound coil cleaner in a
2--1/2 gallon garden sprayer according to the instructions included with the cleaner. The optimum solution
temperature is 100_F.
NOTE: Do NOT USE water in excess of 130_F, a s t he
enzymatic activity will be destroyed.
5. Thoroughly apply Totaline environmentally sound
coil cleaner solution to all coil surfaces including
finned area, tube sheets and coil headers.
6
6. Hold garden sprayer nozzle close to finned areas and
apply cleaner with a vertical, up--and--down mot ion.
Avoid spraying in horizontal pattern to minimize potential for fin damage.
7. Ensure cleaner thoroughly penetrates deep into finned
areas.
8. Interior and exterior finned areas must be thoroughly
cleaned.
9. Finned surfaces should remain wet with cleaning
solution for 10 minutes.
10. Ensure surfaces are not allowed to dry before rinsing.
Reapplying cleaner as needed to ensure 10--minute
saturation is achieved.
11. Thoroughly rinse all surfaces with low velocity clean
water using downward rinsing motion of water spray
nozzle. Protect fins from damage from the spray
nozzle.
Evaporator Coil
Cleaning the Evaporator Coil
1. Turn unit power off. Install lockout tag. Remove
evaporator coil access panel.
2. If economizer or two--position damper is installed, remove economizer by disconnecting Molex plug and
removing mounting screws.
3. Slide filters out of unit.
4. Clean coil using a commercial coil cleaner or dishwasher detergent in a pressurized spray canister. Wash
both sides of coil and flush with clean water. For best
results, back--flush toward return--air section to remove foreign material. Flush condensate pan after
completion.
5. Reinstall economizer and filters.
6. Re connect wiring.
7. Replace access panels.
Evaporator Coil M etering
The metering devices are multiple fixed--bore devices
(Acutrolt) wedged into the horizontal outlet tubes from
the liquid header, located at the entrance to each
evaporator coil circuit path. These are non--adjustable.
Service requires replacing the entire liquid header
assembly.
To check for possible blockage of one or more of these
metering devices, disconnect the supply fan contactor
(IFC) coil, then start the compressor and observe the
frosting pattern on the face of the evaporator coil. A frost
pattern should develop uniformly across the face of the
coil starting at each horizontal header tube. Failure to
develop frost at an outle t tube can indicate a plugged or a
missing orifice.
Devices
Refrigerant System Pressure Access Ports
There are two access ports in the system -- on the suction
tube near the compressor and on the discharge tube near
the compressor. These are brass fittings with black plastic
caps. The hose connection fittings are standard 1/4 SAE
Male Flare couplings.
The brass fittings are two--piece High Flow valves, with a
receptacle base brazed to the tubing and an integral
spring--closed check valve core screwed into the base.
(See Fig. 11.) This check valve is permanently assembled
into this core body and cannot be serviced separately;
replace the entire core body if necessary. Service tools are
available from RCD that allow the replacement of the
check valve core without having to re cover the entire
system refrigerant charge. Apply compressor refrigera nt
oil to the check valve core’s bottom o--ring. Install the
fitting body with 96 +/ --10 in -- lbs of t orque; do not
overtighten.
PURONR (R--410A) REFRIGERANT
This unit is designed for use with Puron (R--410A)
refrigerant. Do not use any other refrigerant in this
system.
Puron (R--410A) is provided in pink (rose) colored
cylinders. These cylinders are available with and without
dip tubes; cylinders wit h dip tubes will have a label
indicating this feature. For a cylinder with a dip tube,
place the cylinder in the upright position (access valve at
the top) when removing liquid refrigerant for charging.
For a cylinder without a dip tube, invert the cylinder
(access valve on the bottom) when removing liquid
refrigerant.
Because Puron (R--410A) is a blend, it is strongly
recommended t hat refrigerant always be removed from
the cylinder as a liquid. Admit liquid refrigerant into the
system in the discharge line. If adding refrigerant into the
suction line, use a commercial metering/expansion device
at the gauge manifold; remove liquid from the cylinder,
pass it t hrough the metering device at the gauge set and
then pass it into the suction line as a vapor. Do not remove
Puron (R--410A) from the cylinder as a vapor.
Refrigerant Charge
Amount of refrigerant charge is listed on the unit’s
nameplate.RefertoCarrierGTAC2--5Charging,
Recovery, Recycling and Reclamation training manual
and the following procedures.
Unit panels must be in place when unit is operating during
the charging procedure.
Charge
No
Use standard evacuating techniques. After evacuating
system, weigh in the specified amount of refrigerant.
Low--Charge
Using Cooling Charging Charts, Fig. 12, vary refrigerant
until the conditions of the appropriate chart are met. Note
the charging charts are different from type normally used.
Charts are based on charging the units to the correct
superheat for t he various operating conditions. Accurate
pressure gauge and temperature sensing device are
required. Connect the pressure gauge to the service port
on the suction line. Mount t he temperature sensing de vice
on the suction line and insulate it so that outdoor ambient
temperature does not affect the reading. Indoor--ai r cfm
must be within the normal operating range of the unit.

Cooling
50TC
To Use Cooling Charging Charts
Take the outdoor ambient temperature and read the
suction pressure gauge. Refer to chart to determine what
suction temperature should be. If suction temperature is
high, add refrigerant. If suction temperature is low,
carefully recover some of the charge. Recheck the suction
pressure as charge is adjusted.

!
CAUTION
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in damage to
components.
The compressor is in a PuronR refrigerant system and
uses a polyolester (POE) oil. This oil is extremely
hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs water readily. POE
oils can absorb 15 times as much water as other oils
designed for HCFC and CFC refri gerants. Avoid
exposure of the oil to the atmosphere.
Replacing Compressor
The compressor used with Puron refrigerant c ontains a
POE oil. This oil has a high affinity for moisture. Do not
remove the compressor’s tube plugs until ready to insert
the unit suction and discharge tube ends.
Compressor mounting bolt torque is 65--75 ft--lbs.
The suction and discharge pressure levels should now
move to their normal start--up levels.
NOTE: When the compressor is rotating in the wrong
direction, the unit makes an elevated level of noise and
does not provide cooling.
Filter Drier
Replace whenever refrigerant system is exposed to
atmosphere. Only use factory specified liquid--line filter
driers with working pressures no less than 650 psig. Do
not install a suction--line filter drier in liquid line. A
liquid--line filter drier designed for use with Puron
refrigerant is re quired on every unit.
Condenser--Fan Location
See Fig. 13.
1. Shut off unit power supply. Install lockout tag.
2. Remove condenser--fan assembly (grille, motor, and
fan).
3. Loosen fan hub setscrews.
4. Adjust fan height as shown in Fig. 13.
5. Tighten setscrews.
6. Re place condenser--fan assembly.
50TC
Compressor
On 3--phase units with scroll compressors, it is important
to be certain compressor is rotating in the proper
direction. To dete rmine whether or not compressor is
rotating in t he proper direction:
1. Conne ct service gauges to suction and discharge pressure fittings.
2. Energize the compressor.
3. The suction pressure should drop and the discharge
pressure should rise, as is normal on any start--up.
NOTE:If t he suction pressure does not drop and the
discharge pressure does not rise to normal levels:
4. Note that the evaporator fan is probably also rotating
in the wrong direction.
5. Turn off power to the unit.
6. Re verse any two of the unit power leads.
7. Re apply power to the compressor.

WARNING
ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury or death.
Units with convenience outlet circuits may use
multiple disconnects. Check convenience outlet for
power status before opening unit for service. Locate
its disconnect switch, if appropriate, and open it.
Tag--out this switch, if necessary.
Two types of convenience outlets are offered on 50TC
models: Non--powered and unit--powered. Both types
providea125--voltGFCI(ground--fault

Non--powered type:Thistype requires thefield
installation of a general--purpose 125--volt 15--A circuit
powered from a source elsewhere in the building. Observe
national and loca l 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--i nstalled 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 m ounted on a bracket behind the
convenience outlet; access is through the unit’s control
box access panel. See Fig. 14.
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--sideterminalsonaunit--mountednon--fused
disconnect or HACR breaker switch; this will provide
service power to the unit when the unit disconnect switch
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).
Maintenance: Periodically test the GFCI receptacle by
pressing the TEST button on the face of the receptacle.
This should cause the internal circuit 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 re quired. Press the RESET button to clear the
tripped condition.
Fuse on powered type: The factory fuse is a Bussman
“Fusetron” T--15, non-- renewable screw--in (Edison base)
type plug fuse.
Using unit--mounted convenience outlets: Units with
unit--mounted 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 c onvenience
outlets.
SMOKE DETECTORS
Smoke detectors are available as factory--installed opt ions
on 50TC models. Smoke detectors may be specified for
Supply Air only or for Return Air without or with
economizer or in combination of Supply Air and Return
Air. Return Air smoke detectors are arranged for vertical
return configurations only. All components necessary for
13
operation are factory--provided and mounted. The unit is
factory-- configuredforimmediatesmokedetector
shutdown operation; additional wiring or modifications t o
unit terminal board may be necessary to complete the unit
and smoke detector configuration to meet project
requirements.
System
The smoke detector system consists of a four--wire
controller and one or two sensors. Its primary function is
to shut down the rooftop unit in order to prevent smoke
from circulating throughout the building. It is not to be
used as a life saving device.
Controller
The controller (see Fig. 16) includes a controller housing,
a printed circuit board, and a clear plastic cover. The
controller can be connected to one or two compatible duct
50TC
smoke sensors. The clear plastic cover is secured to the
housing with a single captive screw for easy access to the
wiring terminals. The controller has three LEDs (for
Power, Trouble and Alarm) and a manual test/reset button
(on the cover face).
inspections without having to disassemble the sensor. The
cover attaches to the sensor housing using four captive
screws and forms an airtight chamber around the sensing
electronics. Each sensor includes a harness with an RJ45
terminal for connecting to the controller. Each sensor has
four LEDs (for Power, Trouble, Alarm and Dirty) and a
manual test/reset button (on the left--side of the housing).

Detail A
Fig. 17 -- Smoke Detector Sensor
Air is introduced to the duct smoke detector sensor’s
sensing chamber through a sampling tube that extends into
the HVAC duct and is directed back into the ventilation
system through a (shorter) exhaust tube. The difference in
air pressure between the two tubes pulls the sampled air
through the sensing chamber. When a sufficient amount of
smoke is detected in the sensing chamber, the sensor
signals an alarm state and the controller automatically
takes the appropriate action to shut down fans and
blowers, change over air handling systems, noti fy the fire
alarm control panel, etc.
The sensor uses a process called differential sensing to
prevent gradual environmental changes from triggering
false alarms. A rapid change in environmental c onditions,
such as smoke from a fire, causes the sensor to signal an
alarm state but dust and debris accumulated over time
does not.
14
For installations using two sensors, the duct smoke
detector does not differentiate which sensor signals an
alarm or trouble condition.
Smoke Detector Locations
Supply Air — The Supply Air smoke detector sensor is
located to the left of the unit’s indoor (supply) fan. See
Fig. 18. Access i s through the fan access panel. There is
no sampling tube used at this location. The sampling tube
inlet exte nds through the side plate of the fan housing
(into a high pressure area). The controller is located on a
bracket to the right of the return filter, accessed through
the lift--off filter panel.

Fig. 30 -- Typical Single Point Installation
On 50TC units, all fuses are 60--A. Single point boxes
containing fuses for 208/230--V applications use UL Cl ass
RK5 250--V fuses (Bussman FRNR 60 or Shawmut TR
60R). Singlepoint boxes for460--V and 575--V
applications use UL Class T 600--V fuses (Bussman JJS
60 or Shawmut A6T 60). (Note that all heaters are
qualified for use with a 60--A fuse, regardless of actual
heater ampacity, so only 60--A fuses are necessary.)
Unit heater applications not requiring supplemental fuses
do not require a Single Point Box. Connect power supply
conductors to heater conductors and field--supplied base
unit power tap leads (see text below re: “Completing
Heater Installation”) below the unit’s main control box
using UL--approved connectors.
Safety Devices — Electric heater applications use a
combination of line--break/auto--reset limit switches and a
pilot--circuit/manual reset limit switch to protect the unit
against over--temperature situations.
Line--break/auto--reset limit switches are mounted on the
base plate of each heater module. See Fig. 31. These a re
accessed through the indoor access panel. Remove the
switch by removing two screws into the base plate and
extracting the existing switch.
Pilot-- c ircuit/manual reset limit switch is located in the
side plate of the indoor (supply) fan housing. See Fig. 28.
Completing Heater Installation
FieldPowerConnections—Field--suppliedtap
conductors must be insta lled between the base unit’s field

PREMIERLINKT CONTROL
The PremierLink controller (see Fig. 33) is compatible
with Carrier Comfort Networkr (CCN) devices. This
control is designed to allow users the access and ability to
change factory--defined settings, thus expanding the
function of the standard unit control board. CCN service
access tools include System Pilot (TM), Touch Pilot (TM)
and Service Tool. (Standard tier display tools Navigatort
and Scrolling Marquee are not suitable for use with latest
PremierLink controller (Version 2.x).)
The PremierLink control is factory--mounted in the 50TC
unit’s main control box to the left of the LCTB. Factory
wiring is completed through harnesses connected to the
LVTB. Field connections are made at a 16--pole terminal
block (TB1) located on the bottom shelf of the unit
control box in front of the PremierLink controller The
factory--i nstalledPremierLinkcontrolincludesthe
supply--air temperature (SAT) sensor. The outdoor air

Refer to Fig. 33 for PremierLink connection locations.
NOTE:Refer to Form 33CS--58SI for complete
PremierLink configuration, operating sequences and
troubleshooting information. Have a copy of this manual
available at unit start--up.
The PremierLink controller requires the use of a Carrier
electronic thermostat or a CCN connection for time
broadcast to initiate its internal timeclock. This is
necessary for broadcast of time of day functions
(occupied/unoccupied).
NOTE:PremierLink controlle r is shipped in Sensor
mode. To be used with a thermostat, the PremierLink
controller must be configured to Thermostat mode. Refer
to PremierLink Configuration instructions for Operating
Mode.
SupplyAirTemperature(SAT)Sensor—On
FIOP--equipped 50TC unit, the unit is supplied with a
supply--air tempe r ature (SAT) sensor (33ZCSENSAT).
This sensor is a tubular probe type, approx 6--inches (12.7
mm) in length. It is a nominal 10--k ohm thermistor. See
Table 15 for temperature--resistance characteristic.
The SAT is factory--wired. The SAT probe is wire--tied to
the supply--air opening (on the horizontal opening end) in
its shipping position. Remove the sensor for installati on.

Wiring
To wire the return air enthalpy sensor, perform the
following:
1. Use a 2--conduc tor, 18 or 20 AWG, twisted pair cable
to connect the return air enthalpy sensor to the enthalpy controller.
2. At the enthalpy control remove the factory--installed
resistor from the (SR) and (+) terminals.
3. Connect the field--supplied RED wire to (+) spade
connector on the return air enthalpy sensor and the
(SR+) terminal on the enthalpy control ler. Connect
the BLK wire to (S) spade connector on the return air
enthalpy sensor and the (SR) terminal on the enthalpy
controller.
NOTE:The enthalpy control must be set to the “D”
setting for differential enthalpy control to work properly.
The enthalpy control receives the indoor and return
enthalpy from the outdoor and return air enthalpy sensors
and providesa dry conta ct switch inputto the
PremierLink controller. A closed contact indicates that
outside air is preferred to the return air. An open contact
indicates that the economizer should remain at minimum
position.
Indoor Air Quality (CO2 sensor) — The indoor air quality
sensor accessory monitors space carbon dioxide (CO2)
C07134
Fig. 43 -- Indoor/Outdoor Air Quality (CO2) Sensor
(33ZCSENCO2) -- Typical Wiring Diagram
To accurately monitor the quality of the air in the
conditioned air space, locate the sensor near a return--air
grille (if present) so it senses the concentration of CO2
leaving the space. The sensor should be mounted in a
location to avoid direct breath contact.
Do not mount the IAQ sensor in drafty areas such as near
supply ducts, open windows, fans, or over heat sources.
Allow at least 3 ft (0.9 m) between the sensor and any
corner. Avoid mounting the sensor where it is influenced
by the supply air; the sensor gives inaccurate readings if
the supply air is blown directly onto the sensor or if the
supply air doe s not have a chance to mix with the room air
before it is drawn into the return a irstream.
Wiring the Indoor Air Quality Sensor —
For each sensor, use two 2--conductor 18 AWG (American
Wire Gage) twisted--pair cables (unshielded) to connect
the separate isolated 24 vac power source to the sensor
and to connect the sensor to the control board terminals.
To connect the sensor to the control, identify the positive
(4 to 20 mA) and ground (SIG COM) terminals on the
sensor. See Fig. 43. Connect the 4--20 mA terminal to
terminal TB1--9 and connect the SIG COM terminal to
terminal TB1--7. See Fig. 44.

On 50TC units equipped with factory--installed Smoke
Detector(s), the smoke detector controller implements the
unit shutdown through its NC contact set connected to the
unit’s LCTB input. The FSD func tion is initiated via the
smoke detector’s Alarm NO contact set. The PremierLink
communicates the smoke detector’s tripped status to the
CCN building control. See Fig. 23 for unit smoke detector
wiring.
Alarm state is reset when the smoke detector alarm
condition is cleared and reset at the smoke detector in the

Filter Status Switch — This function is available only
when PremierLink is configured for (Space) Sensor Mode.
PremierLink control can monitor return filter status in two
ways: By monitoring a field--supplied/installed filter
pressure switch or via supply fan runtime hours.
Using switch input: Install the dirty filter pressure switch
according to switch manufacturer’s instructions, to
measure pressure drop across the unit’s return filters.
Connect one side of the switch’s NO contact set to
LCTB’s THERMOSTAT--R terminal. Connect the other
side of the NO contact set to TB1--10. Setpoint for Dirty
Filter is set at the switch. See Fig. 47.
Wiring the Outdoor Air CO2 Sensor — A dedicated
power supply is required for this sensor. A two--wire cable
is required to wire the dedicated power supply for the
sensor. The two wires should be connected to the power
supply and terminals 1 and 2.
To connect the sensor to the control, identify the positive
(4 to 20 mA) and ground (SIG COM) terminals on the
OAQ sensor. See Fig. 43. Connect the 4 to 20 mA
terminal to 50TC’s terminal TB1--11. Connect the SIG

Teflon with a minimum operating temperature range of
--20 C to 60 C is required. Do not run communication wire
in the same conduit as or next to any AC voltage wiring.
The communication bus shields must be tied together at
each system element. If the communication bus is entirely
within one building, the resulting continuous shield must
be connected to ground at only one single point. If the
communication bus cable exits from one building and
enters another building, the shields must be connected to
the grounds at a lightning suppressor in each building (one
point only).

Table 11 provides a summary of Economizer IV.
Troubleshooting instructions are enclosed.
A functional view of the EconoMi$er is shown in 56.
Typical settings, sensor ranges, and jumper positions are
also shown. An EconoMi$er IV sim ulator program is

training and troubleshooting.
EconoMi$er IV Standard
Outdoor Air Temperature (OAT) Sensor
The outdoor air temperature sensor (HH57AC074) is a 10
to 20 mA device used to measure the outdoor-air
temperature. The outdoor-air temperature is used to
determine when the EconoMi$er IV can be used for free
cooling.Thesensorisfactory-installedonthe
EconoMi$er IV in the outdoor airstream. (See Fig. 55.)
The operating range of temperature measurement is 40_ to
100_F(4_ to 38_C). See Fig. 55.
Supply Air Temperature (SAT) Sensor
The supply a ir temperature sensor is a 3 K thermistor
located at the inlet of the indoor fan. (See Fig. 57.) This
sensor is factory installed. The operating range of
temperature measurement is 0° to 158_F(--18_ to 70_C).
See Table 5 for sensor temperature/resistance values.

Outdoor Air Lockout Sensor
The EconoMi$er IV is equipped with an ambient
temperature lockout switch located in the outdoor
airstream which is used to lock out the compressors below
a42_F(6_C) ambient temperature. (See Fig. 52.)
EconoMi$er IV Control
IMPORTANT: The optional EconoMi$e r2 does not include
Modes
a controller. The EconoMi$er2 is operated by a 4 to 20
mA signal from an existing field-supplied controller (such
as PremierLink™ control). See Fig. 54 for wiring
information.
Determine the EconoMi$er IV control mode before set up
of the control. Some modes of operation may require
different sensors. (See Table 12.) The EconoMi$er IV is
supplied from the factory with a supply--air temperature
sensor and an outdoor-- air temperature sensor. This allows
for operation of the EconoMi$er IV with outdoor air dry
bulb changeover control. Additional accessories can be
added to allow for different types of changeover control
and operation of the EconoMi$er IV and unit.
Outdoor Dry Bulb Changeover
The standard controller is shipped from the factory
configured for outdoor dry bulb changeover control. The
outdoor air and supply air temperature sensors are
included as standard. For this control mode, the outdoor
temperature is compared to an adj ustable setpoint selected
on the control. If the outdoor-air temperature is above the
setpoint, the EconoMi$er IV will adjust the outside air
dampersto minimumposition.If theoutdoor-air
temperature is below the setpoint, the position of the
outside air dampers will be controlled to provided free
cooling using outdoor air. When in this mode, the LED
next to the free cooling setpoint potentiometer will be on.
The changeover temperature setpoint is controlled by the
free cooling setpoint potentiometer located on the control.
(See Fig. 58.) The scale on the potentiometer is A, B, C,
34
and D. See Fig. 59 for the corresponding temperature
changeover values.
Differential Dry Bulb Control
For differential dry bulb control the standard outdoor dry
bulb sensor is used in conjunc tion with an additional
accessorydrybulbsensor(partnumber
CRTEMPSN002A00). The accessory sensor must be
mounted in t he return airstream. (See Fig. 61.) Wiring is
provided in the EconoMi$er IV wiring harness. (See Fig.

Outdoor Enthalpy Changeover
For enthalpy control, accessory enthalpy sensor (part
number HH57AC078) is required. Replace the standard
outdoor dry bulb temperature sensor with the accessory

When the outdoor air enthalpy rises above the outdoor
enthalpy changeover setpoint, the outdoor-air damper
moves to its minimum position. The outdoor enthalpy
changeover setpoint is set with the outdoor enthalpy
setpoint potentiometer on the EconoMi$er IV controller.
The setpoints are A, B, C, and D. (See Fig. 62.) The

Fig. 63 -- EonoMi$er IV Control
Differential Enthalpy Control
For differential enthalpy control, the EconoMi$er IV
controller uses two enthalpy sensors (HH57AC078 and
CRENTDIF004A00), one in the outside air and one in the
return air duct. The EconoMi$er IV controller compares
the outdoor air enthalpy to the return air enthalpy to
determine EconoMi$er IV use. The controller selects the
lower enthalpy air (return or outdoor) for cooling. For
example, when the outdoor air has a lower enthalpy than
the return air, the E conoMi$er IV opens to bring in
outdoor air for free cooling.
Replace the standard outside air dry bulb tempe rature
sensor with the accessory enthalpy sensor in the same
mounting location. (See Fig. 52.) Mount the return air
enthalpy sensor in the return air duct. (See Fig. 61.)
Wiring is provided in the EconoMi$er IV wiring harness.
(See Fig. 52.) The outdoor enthalpy changeover setpoint is
set with the outdoor enthalpy setpoint potentiometer on
the EconoMi$er IV controller. When using this mode of
changeovercontrol,turntheenthalpysetpoint
potentiometer fully clockwise to the D setting.
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Sensor Input
The IAQ input can be used for demand control ventilation
control based on the level of CO
measured in the space
2
or return air duct.
MounttheaccessoryIAQsensoraccordingto
manufacturer specifications. The IAQ sensor should be
wired to the AQ and AQ1 terminals of the controller.
Adjust the DCV potentiometers to correspond to t he DCV
voltage output of the indoor air quality sensor at the
user-determined setpoint. (See Fig. 64.)

Fig. 64 -- CO2 Sensor Maximum Range Settings
If a separate field-supplied transformer is used to power
the IAQ sensor, the sensor must not be grounded or the
EconoMi$er IV control board will be damaged.
When using demand ventilation, the minimum damper
position represents the minimum ventilation position for
VOC(volatileorganiccompounds)ventilation
requirements. The maximum demand ventilation position
is used for fully occupied ventilation.
When demand ventilation control is not being used, the
minimum position potentiometer should be used to set the
occupied ventilation position. The maximum demand
ventilation position should be turned fully clockwise.
Exhaust Setpoint Adjustment
The exhaust setpoint will determine when the exhaust fan
runs based on damper position (if accessory power
exhaust is installed). The setpoint is modified with the
Exhaust Fan Setpoint (EXH SET) potentiometer. (See Fig.
58.) The setpoint represents the damper position above
which the exhaust fans will be turned on. When there is a
call for exhaust, the EconoMi$er IV controller provides a
45 ± 15 second delay before exhaust fan activation to
allow the dampers to open. This delay allows the damper
to reach the appropriate position to avoid unnecessary fan
overload.
Minimum Position Control
There is a minimum damper position potentiometer on the
EconoMi$er IV cont roller. (See Fig. 58.) The minimum
damper position maintains the minimum airflow into the
building during the occupied period.
When using demand ventilation, the minimum damper
position represents the minimum ventilation position for
VOC(volatileorganiccompound)ventilation
requirements. The maximum demand ventilation position
is used for fully occupied ventilation.
When demand ventilation control is not being used, the
minimum position potentiometer should be used to set the
occupied ventilation position. The maximum demand
ventilation position should be turned fully clockwise.
Adjust the minimum position potentiometer to allow the
minimum amount of outdoor air, as required by local
codes, to enter the building. Make minimum position
adjustments with at least 10_F temperature difference
between the outdoor and return-air temperatures.
To determine the minimum position setting, perform the
following procedure:
1. Ca lculate the appropriate mixed air tempera ture
using the following formula:
OA
(T
Ox
100100
+(TR
)
RA
x
)=T
M
TO= Outdoor-Air Temperature
OA = Percent of Outdoor Air
T
= Return-Air Temperature
R
RA = Percent of Return Air
T
= Mixed-Air Temperature
M
As an example, if local codes require 10% outdoor
airduringoc cupiedconditions,outdoor-air
temperature is 60_ F, and return-air temperature is
75_F.
(60 x .10) + (75 x .90) = 73.5_ F
2. Disconne ct the supply air sensor from terminals T
and T1.
3. Ensure that the factory-installed jumper is in place
across terminals P and P1. If remote damper
positioning is being used, make sure that the
terminals are wired according to Fig. 52 and that the
minimum position potentiometer is turned fully
clockwise.
4. Conne ct 24 vac across terminals TR and TR1.
5. Carefullyadjusttheminimumposition
potentiometeruntilthemeasured mixedair
temperature matches the calculated value.
6. Re connect the supply air sensor to terminals T and
T1.
Remote control of the EconoMi$e r IV damper is desirable
when requiring additional temporary ventilation. If a
field-supplied remote potentiometer (Honeywell part
number S963B1128) is wired to the EconoMi$er IV
controller, the minimum position of the damper can be
controlled from a remote location.
To control the minimum damper position remotely,
remove the factory-installed jumper on the P and P1
terminals on the EconoMi$er IV controller. Wire the
field-supplied potentiometer to the P and P1 terminals on
the EconoMi$er IV controller. (See Fig. 63.)
Damper Movement
Damper movement from full open to full closed (or vice
1
versa) takes 2
/2minutes.
Thermostats
The EconoMi$er IV control works with conventional
thermostats that have a Y1 (cool stage 1), Y2 (cool stage
2), W1 (heat stage 1), W2 (heat stage 2), and G (fan). The
EconoMi$erIVcontroldoesnotsupportspace
temperature sensors. Connections are made at the
thermostat terminal connection board located in the main
control box.
Occupancy Control
The factory default c onfiguration for the EconoMi$er IV
control is occupied mode. Occupied status is provided by
the black jumper from terminal TR to terminal N. When
unoccupied mode is desired, i nstall a fie ld--supplied
50TC
37
timeclock function in place of the jumper between TR and
N. (See Fig. 52.) When the timeclock contacts are closed,
the Ec onoMi$er IV control will be in occupied mode.
When the timeclock contacts are open (removing the 24--v
signal from terminal N), the EconoMi$er IV will be in
unoccupied mode.
Demand Control Ventilation (DCV)
When using the EconoMi$er IV for dem and controlled
ventilation, there are some equipment selection criteria
which should be considered. When selecting the heat
capacity and cool capacity of the equipment, the
maximum ventilation rate must be evaluated for design
conditions. The maximum damper position must be
calculated to provide the desired fresh air.
Typically the maximum ventilation rate will be about 5 to
10% more than the typical cfm required per person, using
normal outside air design cri teria.
50TC
A proportional anticipatory strategy should be taken with
the following conditions: a zone with a large area, varied
occupancy, and equipment that cannot exceed the required
ventilation rate at design conditions. Exceeding the
required ventilation rate means the equipment can
condition air at a maximum ventilation rate that is greater
thantherequiredventilationrateformaximum
occupancy. A proportional-anticipatory strategy will cause
the fresh air supplied to increase as the room CO
increases even though the CO
reached. By the time the CO
setpoint has not been
2
level reaches the setpoint,
2
the damper will be at maximum ventilation and should
maintain the setpoint.
In order to have the CO
sensor control the economizer
2
damper in this manner, first determine the damper voltage
output for minimum or base ventilation. Base ventilation
is the ventilation required to remove contaminants during
unoccupied periods. The following equation may be used
to determine the percent of outside air entering the
building for a given damper position. For best results there
should be at least a 10 degree difference in outside and
return-air temperatures.

M
Once base ventilation has been determined, set the
minimum damper position potentiometer to the correct
position.
The same equation can be used to determine the occupied
or maximum ventilation rate to the building. For example,
an output of 3.6 volts to the actuator provides a base
ventilation rate of 5% and an output of 6.7 volts provides
the maximum ventilation rate of 20% (or base plus 15 cfm
per person). Use Fig. 64 to det ermine the maximum
setting of the CO
sensor. For example, an 1100 ppm
2
setpoint relates to a 15 cfm per person design. Use the
1100 ppm curve on Fig. 64 to find the point when t he CO
sensor output will be 6.7 volts. Line up the point on the
2
level
graph with the left side of the chart to determine that the
range configuration for the CO
sensor should be 1800
2
ppm. The EconoMi$er IV controller will output the 6.7
volts from the CO
sensor to the actuator when the CO
2
concentration in the space is at 1100 ppm. The DCV
setpoint may be left at 2 volts since the CO
voltage will be ignored by the EconoMi$er IV controller
until it rises above the 3.6 volt setting of the minimum
position potentiometer.
Once the fully occupied damper position has been
determined, set the maximum damper demand control
ventilation potentiometer to this position. Do not set to the
maximum position as this can result in over-ventilation to
the space and potential high humidity levels.

Operating Sequence, Base Unit Controls
COOLING, UNITS WITHOUT ECONOMIZER — When
thermostat calls for cooling, terminals G and Y1 are
energized.Theindoor--fancontactor(IFC)and
compressor contactor are energized and indoor--fan motor,
compressor, and outdoor fan starts. The outdoor fan motor
runs continuously while unit is cooling.
HEATING, UNITS WITHOUT ECONOMIZER — When
the thermostat calls for heating, terminal W1 will be
energized with 24v. The IFC and heater contactor no. 1
(HC1) are energized.
COOLING, UNITS WITH ECONOMI$ER IV — When
free cooling is not available, the compressors will be
controlled by the zone thermostat. When free cooling is
available, the outdoor--air damper is modulated by the
EconoMi$er IV c ontrol to provide a 50 to 55_F supply--air
temperature into the zone. As the supply--air te mperature
fluctuates above 55 or below 50_F, the dampers will be
modulated (open or close) to bring the supply-- air
temperature back within the setpoint limits.
Integrated EconoMi$er IV operation on single stage units
requires a 2 --stage thermostat (Y1 and Y2).
For EconoMi$er IV operation, there must be a thermostat
call for the fan (G). This will move the damper to its
minimum position during the occupied mode.
If the increase in cooling capacity causes the supply--air
temperature to drop below 45_F, then the outdoor--ai r
damper position will be fully closed. If the supply--air
temperature continues to fall, the outdoor--air da mper will
close. Control returns to normal once the supply--air
temperature rises above 48_F. If optional power exhaust is
installed, as the outdoor--air damper ope ns and closes, the
power exhaust fans will be energized and deenergized.
If field--installed accessory CO2 sensors are connected to
the EconoMi$er IVcontrol, ademand controlled
ventilation strategy will begin to operate. As the CO2
level in the zone increases above the CO2 setpoint, the
minimum position of the damper will be increased
proportionally. As the CO2 level decreases because of the
increase in fresh air, the outdoor--air damper will be
proportionally closed. Damper position will follow the
higher demand condition from DCV mode or free cooling
mode.
To cause a reset of the non--volatile memory (to factory
defaults), turn the controller power off if it is on, move the
switch from position 1 to position 0, and then apply power
to the controller for a minimum of 5 seconds. At this
point, no action occurs, but the controller is now ready for
the memory to reset. Remove power to the controller
again and move the switch from position 0 to position 1.
This time, when power is applied, the memory will reset
to factory defaults. The controller address will return to
bus 0 element 31, indicating that m emory reset occurred.
Damper movement from full closed to full open (or vice
versa) will take between 1--1/2 and 2--1/2 minutes.
If free cooling can be used as determined from the
appropriate changeover command (switch, dry bulb,
enthalpy curve, differential dry bulb, or differential
enthalpy), a call for cooling (Y1 closes at the thermostat)
will cause the control to modulate the dampers open to
maintain the supply air temperature setpoint at 50 to 55_F.
As the supply--air temperature drops below the setpoint
range of 50 to 55_F, the control will modulate the
42
outdoor--air dampe rs closed to maintain the proper
supply--air temperature.
compressors 1 and 2 will be cycled based on Y1 and Y2
inputs respectively.
HEATING, UNITS WITH ECONOMI$ER IV — When
the room temperature calls for heat, the heating controls
are energized as described in the Heating, Units Without
Economizer section.
ECONOMIZERINOCCUPIEDMODE—The
economizer logic will be energized when the unit IFC is
energized. The economizer damper will open to the
minimum position setting and remain open until the IFC is
de--energized.
ECONOMIZER IN UNOCCUPIED MODE — The
economizer damper will remain closed during Unoccupied
Mode periods.
Operating Sequence, PremierLink Control
THERMOSTAT MODE — If the PremierLink controller
is configured for Thermostat mode (TSTAT), it will
control only to the thermostat inputs on J4. These inputs
can be overridden through CCN communication via the
CV_TSTAT points display table. When in this mode, t he
fire safety shutdown (FSD) input cannot be used, so any
fire/life safety shutdown must be physically wired to
disable the 24 vac control circuit to the unit.
Indoor Fan — The indoor fan output will be e nergized
whenever there is 24 vac present on the G input. The
indoor fan will be turned on without any delay and the
economizer damper will open to its minimum position if
the unit has a damper connected to the controller. This
will also occur if the Premier-- Link controller has been
configured for electric heat or heat pump operation.
Cooling — For cooling operation, there must be 24 vac
present on G. When G is active, the PremierLink
controller will then determine if outdoor conditions are
suitable for economizer cooling when an economizer
damper is available. A valid OAT, SPT (CCN space
temperature) and SAT (supply air temperature) sensor
MUST be installed for proper economizer operation. It
recommended that an outdoor or differential enthalpy
sensor also be installed. If one is not present, then a
jumper is needed on the ENTH input on J4, which will
indicate that the enthalpy will always be low. Economizer
operation will be based only on outdoor air dry bulb
temperature. The conditions are suitable when: enthalpy is
low, OAT is less than OATL High Lockout for TSTAT,
and OAT is less than OATMAX, the high setpoint for free
cooling. The default for OATL is 65_F. The default for
OATMAX is 75_F.
When all of the above conditions are satisfied and all the
required sensors are installed, the PremierLink controller
will use the economizer for cooling. One of three different
controlroutineswillbeused dependingonthe
temperature of the outside air. The routines use a PID loop
to control the SAT to a supply air setpoint (SASP) based
on the error from setpoint (SASPSAT). The SASP is
determined by the routine.
If an economizer is not a vailable or the conditions are not
met for the following economizer routines below, the
Any time the compressors are running, the PremierLink
controller will lock out the compressors if the SAT
becomes too low. These user configurable settings are
found in the SERVICE configuration table:
Compressor 1 Lockout at SAT < SATLO1 (50 to 65_F)
(default is 55_F)
Compressor 2 Lockout at SAT < SATLO2 (45 to 55_F)
(default is 50_F)
After a compressor is locked out, it may be started again
after a normal time--guard pe riod and the supply -- a ir
temperature has increased at least 8_F above the lockout
setpoint.
Routine No. 1: If the OAT ≤ DXLOCK (OAT DX lockout
temperature) and DX Cooling Lockout is enabled when
Y1 input is energized, the economizer will be modulated
to maintain SAT at the Supply Air Setpoint (SASP) =
SATLO1 + 3_F (Supply Air Low Temp lockout for
compressor 1). When Y2 is energized, the economizer
will be modulated to control to a lower SASP = SATLO2
+3_F (Supply Air Low Temp lockout for compressor no.
2). Mechanical cooling is locked out and will not be
energized.
Routine No. 2: If DXLOCK (or DX Cooling Lockout is
disabled) < OAT ≤ 68_F when Y1 input is energized, the
economizer will be modulated to mai ntain SAT at SASP =
SATLO1 + 3_F. If t he SA T > SAS P + 5_F and the
economizer position > 85% then the economizer will
close the to minimum position for three minutes or until
the SAT > 68_F. The economizer integrator will then be
reset and begin modulating to maintain the SASP after
stage one has been energized for 90 seconds.
When Y2 is energized, the economizer will be modulated
to control to a lower supply air setpoint SASP= SATLO2
+3_F If the SAT > SASP + 5_F it will close the
economizer to minimum position for 3 minutes, reset the
integrator for the economizer, then start modula ting the
economizer to maintain the SASP after the stage two has
been on for 90 seconds. This provides protection for the
compressor against flooded starts and allow refrigerant
flow to stabilize before modulating the economizer again.
By using return air across the evaporator coil just after the
compressor has started allows for increased refrigerant
flow rates providing better oil return of any oil washed out
during compressor start--up.
Routine No. 3: If the OAT > 68_F and the enthalpy is low
and the OAT <SPT then the economizer will open to
100% and compressors 1 and 2 will be cycled based on
Y1 and Y2 inputs respectively. If any of these conditions
are not met the economizer will go to minimum position.
If there is no call for heating or cooling, the economizer,
if available, will maintain the SASP at 70_F.
Heating — For gas or electric heat, HS1 and HS2 outputs
will follow W1 and W2 inputs respectively. The fan will
also be turned on if it is configured for electric heat.
50TC
43
Heating may also be energized when an IAQ sensor
installed and has overridden the minimum economizer
damper position. If the OAT < 55_F and an IAQ sensor is
installed and the IAQ minimum position > minimum
damper position causing the SAT to decrease below the
SPT -- 10_F, then the heat stages will be cycled to temper
the SAT to maintain a temperature between the SPT and
the SPT + 10_F.
Auxiliary Relay configured for Exhaust Fan — If the
Auxiliary Relay is configured for exhaust fan (AUXOUT
= 1) in the CONFIG configuration table and Continuous
Power Exhaust (MODPE) is enable in the SERVICE
configuration table then the output (HS3) will be
energized whenever the G input is on. If the MODPE is
disabled then output will be energized based on the Power
Exhaust Setpoint (PES) in the SETPOINT table.
Indoor Air Quality — If the optional indoor air quality
50TC
(IAQI) sensor is installed, the PremierLink controller will
maintain indoor air quality within the space at the
user--configured differential setpoint (IAQD) in the
CONFIG configurationtable.Thesetpoint isthe
difference between the IAQI and an optional outdoor air
quality sensor (OAQ). If the OAQ is not present then a
fixed value of 400 ppm is used. The actual space IAQ
setpoint (IAQS) is calculated as follows:
IAQS = IAQD + OAQ (OAQ = 400 ppm if not present)
As air quality within the space changes, the minimum
position of the economizer damper will be changed also
thus allowing more or less outdoor air into the space
depending on the relationship of the IAQI to the IAQS.
The IAQ algorithm runs every 30 seconds and ca lculates
IAQ minimum position value using a PID loop on the
IAQI deviation from the IAQS. The IAQ minimum
position is then compared against the user configured
minimum position (MDP) and the greatest value becomes
the final minimum damper position (IQMP). If the
calculated IAQ Minimum Position is greater than the IAQ
maximum damper position (IAQMAXP) decision in the
SERVICE configuration table, then it will be clamped to
IAQMAXP value.
If IAQ is configured for low priority, the positioning of
the economizer damper can be overridden by comfort
requirements. If the SAT < SASP --8_F and both stages of
heat are on for more then 4 minutes or the SAT > SASP +
5_F and both stages of cooling on for more then 4 minutes
then the IAQ minimum damper position will become 0
and the IQMP = MDP. IAQ mode will resume when the
SAT > SASP --8_F in heating or the SAT < SASP + 5_Fin
cooling. If the Premier--
Link controller is configured for 1 stage of heat and cool
or is only using a single stage thermostat input, this
function will not work as it requires the both Y1 and Y2
or W1 and W2 inputs to be active. In thi s application, it is
recommended that the user configure IAQ priority for
high.
If IAQ is configured for high priority and the OAT < 55_F
and the SAT < (SPT --10_F), the algorithm will enable the
heat stages to maintain the SAT between the SPT and the
SPT + 10_F.
CCN SENSOR MODE — When the PremierLink
controller is confi gured for CCN control, it will control
the compressor, economizer and heating outputs based its
own space temperature input and setpoints or those
received from Linkage. An optional CO2 IAQ sensor
mounted in the space or received through communications
can also influence the economizer and heating outputs.
The PremierLink controller does not have a hardware
clock so it must have another device on the CCN
communication bus broadcasting time. The controller will
maintain its own time once it has received time as long as
it has power and will send a request for time once a
minute until it receives time when it has lost power and
power is restored. Thecontroller willcontrol to
unoccupied setpoints until it has received a valid time.
The controller must have valid time in order to perform
any broadcast function, follow an occupancy schedule,
perform IAQ pre--occupancy purge and many other
functions as well. The following secti ons describe the
operation for the functions of the PremierLink controller.
Indoor Fan — The indoor fan will be turned on whenever
any one of the following conditions are met:
S If the PremierLink controll er is in the occupied mode and
ASHRAE 90.1 Supply Fan is configured for Yes in the
CONFIG table. This will be determined by its own
internal occupanc y schedule if it i s programmed to
follow its local schedule or broadcast its local schedule as
a global schedule, or following a globa l schedule
broadcast by another device.
S If PremierLink controller is in the occupied mode and
ASHRAE 90.1 Supply Fan is configured for No and there
is a hea t or cool demand (fan auto mode)
S If the PremierLink controll er is in the occupied mode and
ASHRAE 90.1 Supply Fan is configured for Yes when
Linkage is active and the Linkage Coordinator device is
sending an oc cupied mode flag
S When Temperature Compensated Start is active
S When Free Cool is active
S When Pre--Occupancy Purge is active
S Whenever there is a demand for cooling or heating in the
unoccupied mode
S Whenever the Remote Contact input is configured for
Remote Contact (RC_DC=1 in SERVICE table) and it is
closed or the point is forced Closed via communications
in the STATUS01 points display table (remote contact
closed = occupied, remote contact open = unoccupied)
S W henever the H3_EX_RV point is configure d for
Dehumidification (AUXOUT=5 in CONFIG table) and it
is in the unoccupied mode and t he indoor RH exceeds the
unoccupied humidity setpoint
44
S Whenever the Supply Fan Relay point is forced On in the
STATUS01 points display table
The fan will also continue to run as long as compressors
are on when transitioning from occupied to unoccupied
with the exception of Fire Shutdown m ode. If the Fire
Shutdown input point is closed or forced in the
STATUS01 points display table, the fan will be shutdown
immediately regardless of the occupancy state or demand.
The PremierLink controller has an optional Supply Fan
Status input to provide proof of airflow. If this is enabled,
the point will look for a contact closure whenever the
Supply Fan Relay is on. If the input is not enabled, then it
will always be the same state as the Supply Fan Relay.
The cooling, economizer and heating routines will use this
input point for fan status.
Cooling — The compressors are controlled by the Cooling
Control Loop that is used to calculate the desired SAT
needed to satisfy the space. It will compare the SPT to the
Occupied Cool Setpoint (OCSP) + the T56 slider offset
(STO) when occupied and the Unoccupied Cool Setpoint
(UCSP + Unoccupied Cooling Deadband) if unoccupied
to calculate a Cooling Submaster Reference (CCSR) that
is then used by the staging algorithm (Cooling submaster
loop) to calculate the required number of cooling stages.
The economizer, if available, will be used as the first
stage of cooling in addition to the compressors. This loop
runs every minute. The following conditions must be met
in order for this algorithm to run:
S i ndoor fan has been ON for at least 30 seconds
S heat mode is not active and the time guard between
modes equals zero.
S mode is occupied or the Temperature Compensated Start
or Cool mode is active
S SPT reading is available and > (OCSP + STO)
S If mode is unoccupied and t he SPT > (UCSP +
Unoccupied Cooling Deadband). The indoor fan will be
turned on by the staging algorithm.
S OAT > DXLOCK or OAT DX Lockout is disabled
If all of the above conditions are met, t he CCSR will be
calculated, otherwise it is set to its maximum value and
DX stages is set to 0. If only the last condition is not true
and an economizer is available, it will be used to cool the
space.
The submaster loop uses the CCSR com pared to the actual
SAT to determine the required number of capacity stages
to satisfy the load. There is a programmable minimum
internal time delay of 3 to 5 minutes on and 2 to 5 minutes
off for the compressors to prevent short cycling. There is
also a 3--minute time delay before bringing on the second
stage compressor. If the PremierLink controller is
configured for Heat Pump and AUXOUT is configured for
Reversing Valve Cool, the H3_EX_RV output will
energize 2 seconds after the first compressor is energized
and stay energized until there is a demand for heat. If
AUXOUT is configured for Reversing Valve Heat, then
the H3_EX_RV contact will be deenergized when there is
a demand for cooling. An internal 5 to 10--minute
user-- programmable time guard between modes prevents
rapid cycling between modes when used in a single zone
application. The Time Guard is lowered to 3 minutes
when Linkage is active to allow the 3Vt linkage
coordinator to have better control of the Premier--Link
controller when used as the air source for the 3V control
system.
Table 13 indicates the number of stages available. The
staging algorithm looks at the number of stages available
based the number of cool stages configured in the
SERVICE configuration table. The algorithm will skip the
economizer if it is not available and turn on a compressor.

Any time the compressors are running, the PremierLink
controller will lockout the compressors if the SAT
becomes too low. These user configurable settings are
found in the SERVICE configuration table:
Compressor 1 Lockout at SAT < SATLO1 (50 to 65_F)
(default is 55_F)
Compressor 2 Lockout at SAT < SATLO2 (45 to 55_F)
(default is 50_F)
After a compressor is locked out, it may be started again
after a normal time--guard period and the supply air
temperature has increased at least 8_F above the lockout
setpoint.
Dehumidification — The PremierLink controller will
provideoccupiedandunoccupieddehumidification
control when AUXOUT = 5 in the CONFIG table and is
installed on HVAC units that are equipped with additional
controls and accessories to accomplish this function. This
function also requires a space relative humidity sensor be
installed on the OAQ/IRH input.
When in the occupied mode and the indoor relative
humidity is greater then the Occupied High Humidity
setpoint, then the H3_EX_RV output point will be
energized. When in the unoccupied mode and indoor
relative humidity is greater then the Unoccupied High
Humidity setpoint, then the H3_EX_RV output point and
supply fan output will be energized. There is a fixed 5%
hysteresis that the indoor relative humidity must drop
below the active setpoint to end the dehumidification
mode and deenergize the H3_EX_RV output. If the
PremierLink controller is in the unoccupied mode, then
the fan relay will deenergize if there is no other mode
requiring to the fan to be on. This function will not
energize mechani cal cooling as a result of the indoor
relative humidity exceeding either setpoint.
A high humidity alarm will be generated if the indoor
relative humidity exceeds the high humidity setpoint by
the amount configured in t he Control Humidity Hysteresis
in the ALARMS table for 20 minutes. The alarm will

return to normal when the indoor relative humidity drops
3% below the active humidit y setpoint.
Economizer — The economizer dampers are used to
provide free cooling and indoor air quality if optional
CO2 sensor is installed and when the outside conditions
are suitable. Temperature control is accomplished by
controlling the SAT to a certain level determined by the
Economizer PID Loop by ca lculating a submaster
reference (ECONSR) value. This algorithm will calculate
the submaster reference temperature (ECONSR) based on
OAT and enthalpy conditions and cooling requirements.
The ECONSR value is then passed to the Economi zer
Submaster Loop, which will modulate dampers to
maintain SAT at ECONSR level.
into account the cooling effect that has just been turned on
and not return to the value require before the cooling was
added. This will prevent the economizer from causing
premature off cycles of compressors while maintaining the
low SAT temperature setpoint for the number of stages
active. In addition to preventing compressor short cycling,
by using return air across the evaporator coil just after the
compressor has started allows for increased refrigerant
flow rates providing for better oil return of any oil washed
out during compressor start-- up.
If the OAT > 68_F and OAT < SPT and the number of DX
stages requested is > 0 by the staging algorithm, then
ECONSR is set to its minimum value 48_F and the
damper will go to 100% open.
The following conditions are required to determine if
economizer cooling is possible:
S Indoor fan has been on for at least 30 seconds
50TC
S Enthalpy is low
S SAT reading is available
S OAT reading is available
S SPT reading is available
S OAT ≤ SPT
S OAT < OATMAX (OATMAX default is 75_F)
S Economizer position is NOT forced
If any of the above conditions are not met, the ECONSR
will be set to its MAX limit of 120_F and the damper will
go to its configured minimum position. The minimum
damper position can be overridden by the IAQ routine
described later in this section.
The calculation for ECONSR is as follows:
ECONSR = PID function on (setpoint -- SPT), where:
setpoint = ((OCSP+STO) + (OHSP+STO))/2 when
setpoint = (OCSP+STO) -- 1 when OAT ≤ NTLO
setpoint = (OHSP+STO) + 1 when OAT ≥ 68_F
The actual damper position (ECONPOS) is the result of
the following calculation. Values represented in the right
side of the equation can be found in the SERVICE
configuration table descriptions in this manual. Note that
that the OAT is taken into consideration to avoid large
changes in damper position when the OAT is cold:
ECONPOS = SubGain x (ECONSR--SAT) + CTRVAL
where SubGain = (OAT -- TEMPBAND) / (ESG + 1)
If the OAT < DXLOCK (DX Cool Lockout setpoint) the n
the damper will be modula ted to maintain the SAT at the
ECONSR value.
If the OAT is between DXLOCK and 68_F (DXLOCK <
OAT < 68_F) and additional cooling is required, the
economizer will close the to minimum position for three
minutes, the economizer integrator will then be reset to 0
and begin modulating to maintain the SASP after the stage
has been energized for about 90 seconds. This will allow
the economizer to calculate a new ECONSR that takes
If the Auxiliary Relay is configured for exhaust fan
(AUXOUT = 1) in the CONFIG configuration table and
Continuous Power Exhaust (MODPE) is Enable in the
SERVICE configuration table, then the AUXO output
(HS3) will be energized whenever the PremierLink
controller is in the occupied mode. If the MODPE is
disabled then AUXO output will be energized based on
the Power Exhaust Setpoint (PES) in the SETPOINT
table.
Heating — The heat stages are controlled by the Heating
Control Loop, which is used to calculate the desired SAT
needed to satisfy the space. It will compare the SPT to the
Occupied Heat Setpoint (OHSP) + the T56 sli der offset
(STO) when occupied and the Unoccupied Heat Setpoint
(UHSP -- Unoccupied Heating Deadband) if unoccupied to
calculate a Staged Heat Submaster Reference (SHSR).
The heat staging algorithm compares the SHSR to the
actual SAT to calculate the required number of heating
stages to satisfy the load. This loop runs eve ry 40 seconds.
The following conditions must be met in order for this
algorithm to run:
S Indoor fan has been ON for at least 30 seconds.
S Cool mode is not active and the time guard between
modes equals zero.
Mode is occupied or the Temperature Compensated Start
S
or Heat mode is active.
S SPT reading is available and < (OHSP + STO).
S If it is unoccupied and the SPT < (UHSP -- Unoccupied
Heating Deadband). The indoor fan will be turn on by the
staging algorithm.
When all of the above conditions are met, the SHSR is
calculated and up to 3 stages of heat will turned on and off
to satisfy to maintain the SAT = SHSR. If any of the
above conditions are not met, the SHSR is set to its
minimum value of 35_F.
The Staged Heat Submaster Reference (SHSR) is
calculated as follows:
SHSR = Heating PID func tion on (error) where error =
(OHSP + STO) -- Space Temperature
The Maximum SHSR is determined by the SATHI
configuration. If the supply--air temperature exceeds the
SATHI configuration value, then the heat stages will turn
46
off. Heat staging will resume after a delay to allow the
supply--air temperature to drop below the SATHI value.
The maximum number of stages available is dependent on
the type of heat and the number of stages programmed in
the CONFIG and SERVICE configuration tables. Staging
will occur as follows for gas electric units, Carrier heat
pumps with a defrost board, or cooling units with electric
heat:
Staging will occur as follows For heat pump units with
AUXOUT configured as reversing valve:
For Heating PID STAGES = 2 and AUXOUT = Reversing
Valve Heat (the H3_EX_RV output will stay energized
until there is a cool demand) HEAT STAGES = 1 (50%
capacity) shall energize CMP1, CMP2, RVS.
If AUXOUT is configured for Reversing Valve Cool, then
the H3_EX_RV contact will be deenergized when there is
a demand for heating. The heat stages will be cycled to
temper the SAT so that it will be between the SPT and the
SPT + 10_F (SPT < SAT < (SPT + 10_F)) if:
S the number of heat stages calculated is zero
S the OAT < 55_F
S an IAQ sensor is installed
S the IAQ Minimum Damper Position > minimum damper
position
S and the SAT < SPT --10_F.
There is also a SAT tempering routine that will act as SAT
low limit safety to prevent the SAT from becoming too
cold should the economizer fail to close. One stage of
heating will be energized if it is not in the Cooling or Free
Cooling mode and the OAT is below 55_F and the SAT is
below 40_F. It will deenergize when the SAT > (SPT +
10_F).
Indoor Air Quality — If the optional indoor air quality
(IAQI) sensor is installed, the PremierLink controller will
maintain indoor air quality within the space at the user
configured differential setpoint (IAQD) in the CONFIG
configuration table. The setpoint is the differenc e between
the IAQI and an optional outdoor air quality sensor
(OAQ). If the OAQ is not present then a fixed value of
400 ppm is used. The actual space IAQ setpoint (IAQS) is
calculated as follows:
IAQS = IAQD + OAQ (OAQ = 400 ppm if not present)
As air quality within the space changes, the minimum
position of the economizer damper will be changed also
thus allowing more or less outdoor air into the space
depending on the relationship of the IAQI to the IAQS.
The IAQ algorithm runs every 30 seconds and ca lculates
IAQ minimum position value using a PID loop on the
IAQI deviation from the IAQS. The IAQ minimum
position is then compared against the user configured
minimum position (MDP) and the greatest value becomes
the final minimum damper position (IQMP). If the
calculated IAQ minimum position is greater than the IAQ
maximum damper position (IAQMAXP) decision in the
SERVICE configuration table, then it will be clamped to
IAQMAXP value.
If IAQ is configured for low priority, the positioning of
the economizer damper can be overridden by comfort
requirements. If the SPT > OCSP + 2.5 or the SPT <
OHSP -- 2.5 then IAQ minimum position becomes 0 and
the IQMP = MDP. The IAQ mode will resume when the
SPT ≤ OCSP + 1.0 and SPT ≥ OHSP -- 1.0.
If IAQ is configured for high priority and the OAT < 55_F
and the SAT < (SPT -- 10_F), the algorithm will enable the
heat stages to maintain the SAT between the SPT and the
SPT + 10_F.
IAQ Pre--Occupancy Purge — This function is designed to
purge the space of airborne contaminants that may have
accumulated 2 hours prior to the beginning of the next
occupied period. The maximum damper position that will
be used is temperature compensated for cold whether
conditions and can be pre--e mpted by Temperature
Compensated Start function. For pre--occupancy to occur,
the following conditions must be met:
S IAQ Pre-- Occ upancy Purge option is enabled in the
CONFIG configuration table
S Unit is in the unoccupied state
S Current Time is valid
S Next Occupied Time is valid
S Time is within 2 hours of next Occupied period
S Time is within Purge Duration (user--defined 5 to 60
minutes in the CONFIG configuration table)
S OAT Reading is available
If all of the above conditions are met, the economizer
damperIQMPistemporarilyoverriddenbythe
pre--occupancydamperposition(PURGEMP).The
PURGEMP will be set to one of the following conditions
basedonatmosphe ricconditionsandthespace
temperature:
S If the OAT ≥ NTLO (Unoccupied OAT Lockout
Temperature) and OAT < 65_F and OAT is less than or
50TC

equal to OCSP and Enthalpy = Low then PURGEMP =
100%.
S If the OAT < NTLO then PURGEMP = LTMP (Low
Temperature Minimum Position -- defaults to 10%)
S If the OAT > 65_For(OAT≥ NTLO and OAT > OCSP)
or Entha lpy = High then PURGEMP = HTMP (High
Temperature Minimum Position defaults to 35%).
The LTMP and HTMP are user adjustable values from 0
to 100% in the SETPOINT table. Whenever PURGEMP
results in anumber greater than0%,the IAQ
pre--occupancy purge mode will be enabled turning on the
Indoor Fan Relay and setting the economizer IQMP to the
PURGEMP value. When IAQ pre--occupancy mode is not
active PURGEMP = 0%.
Unoccupied Free Cooling — Unoccupied free cool
50TC
function will start the indoor fan during unoccupied times
in order to cool the space with outside air. This function i s
performed to delay the need for mechanical cooling when
the system enters the occupied period. Depe nding on how
Unoccupied Free Cooling is configured, unoccupied mode
can occur at a ny time in the unoccupied time period or 2
to 6 hours prior to the next occupied time. Once the space
has been sufficiently cooled during this cycle, the fan will
be stopped. In order to perform unocc upied free cooling
all of the following conditions must be m et:
S NTEN option is enabled in the CONFIG configuration
table
S Unit is in unoccupied state
S Current time of day is valid
S Temperature Compensated Start mode is not acti ve
S COOL mode is not active
S HEAT m ode is not active
S SPT reading is available
S OAT reading is available
S Enthalpy is low
S OAT > NTLO (with 1_F hysteresis) and < Max Free Cool
setpoint
If any of the above conditions are not met, Unoccupied
Free Cool mode will be stopped, otherwise, the mode will
be controlled as follows:
The NTFC setpoint (NTSP) is determined as NTSP =
(OCSP + OHSP) / 2
The Unoccupied Free Cool mode will be started when:
SPT > (NTSP + 2_F) and SPT > (OAT + 8_F)
The Unoccupied Free Cool mode will be stopped when:
SPT < NTSP or SPT < (OAT + 3_F)
Temperature Compensated Start — Thi s function will run
when the controller is in unoccupied state and will
calculate early start bias time (SBT) based on space
temperature deviation from oc cupied setpoints in minutes
per degree. The following conditions will be met for the
function to run:
S Unit is in unoccupied state
S Next occupied time is valid
S Current time of day is valid
S Valid space temperature reading is available (from sensor
or linkage thermostat)
S Cool Start Bias (KCOOL) and Heat Bias Start (KHEAT)
> 0 in the CONFIG configuration table
The SBT is calculated by one of the following formulas
depending on temperature demand:
If SPT > OCSP then SBT = (SPT -- OCSP) * KCOOL
If SPT < OHSP then SPT = (OHSP -- SPT) * KHEAT.
The calculated start bias time can range from 0 to 255
minutes. When SBT is greater than 0 the function will
subtract the SBT from the next occupied time to calculate
a new start time. When a new start time is reached, the
Temperature Compensated Start mode is started. This
mode energizes the fan and the unit will operate as though
itisinoccupiedstate.Onceset,Temperature
Compensated Start mode will stay on until the unit returns
to occupied state. If either Unoccupied Free Cool or IAQ
Pre--Occupancymodeis act ive whenTemperature
Compensated Start begins, their mode will end.
Door Switch — The Door Switch function is designed to
disable mechanical heating and cooling outputs when the
REMOCC contact input is closed (in the ON state) after a
programmed time delay. The fan will continue to operate
based on the current mode and the ASHRAE 90. 1 Supply
Fan setting. The delay is programmable from 2 to 20
minutes by setting the Remote Cont/Door Switch decision
in the SERVICE ta ble to a value equal to the number of
minutes desired. When the contact is open (in the OFF
state), the PremierLink controller will resume normal
temperature control.
This application is designed for use in schools or other
public places where a door switch can be installed to
monitor the opening of a door for an extended period of
time. The controller will disable mechanical cooling and
heating when the door is open for a programmed amount
of time.
This function can also be used to monitor a high
condensate level switch when installed on a water source
heat pump to disable mechanic cooling in case of a
plugged evaporator condensate pan drain.
Linkage — The Linkage function in the PremierLink
controller is available for applications using a Linkage
thermostat or the 3V control system. If using the Linkage
thermostat, both the PremierLink controller and the stat
must be on the same CCN bus. When used as the air
source for a 3V control system, the PremierLink controller
is not required to be on the same CCN bus but it is
recommended. Linkage will be active when it is initiated
from the Linkage thermostat or the 3V Linkage
Coordinator through CCN communications and requires
no configuration. Only one device can be linked to the
PremierLink controller.
48
Once Linkage is active, the PremierLink controller’s own
SPT, temperature setpoints, and occupancy are ignored
and the controller will use the i nformation provided by the
remote linkage device. The following information will be
received from the remote linked device and can be viewed
in the maintenance display table:
S Supervi sory Element
S Supervi sory Bus
S Supervi sory Block
S Average Occupied Heat Setpoint
S Average Occupied Cool Setpoint
S Average Unoccupied Heat Setpoint
S Average Unoccupied Cool Setpoint
S Average Zone Temp
S Average Occupied Zone Temp
S Occupancy Status
In return, the PremierLink controller will provide its SAT
and operating mode to the linked device.
It will convert its operating modes to Linkage modes. See

The PremierLink controller will generate a Linkage
Communication Failure alarm if a failure occurs for 5
consecutive minutes once a Linkage has previously been
established. It will then revert back to its own SPT,
setpoints and occupancy schedule for control. For this
reason, Carrier strongly recommends that an SPT be
installed in the space on open plenum systems or in the
return air duct of ducted return air systems to provide
continuedbackupoperation.WhenLinkage
communication is restored, the controller will generate a
return to normal.
For more information on how the PremierLink controller
is used in conjunction with the Carrier 3V control system,
contact your CCN controls representative.
IMPORTANT: The PremierLink controller should not be
used as a linked air source in a ComfortIDt VAV system.
The ComfortID VAV system will NOT function correctly
when applied with a PremierLink controller as the air
source, resulting i n poor comfort control and possible
equipment malfunction.
NOTE: The PremierLink controller can be used as an air
source in a 3V Pressure Independent (PI) System (a 3V
LinkageCoordinatorwithComfortIDPIZone
Controllers), but it should not be used as an air source
with ComfortID controllers unless a 3V zone controller is
used as the Linkage Coordinator. Contact your Carrier
CCN controls representative for assistance.
Demand Limit — If the demand limit option is enabled,
the control will receive and accept Redline Alert and
Loadshed commands from the CCN loadshed controller.
When a redline alert is received, the control will set the
maximum stage of capacity equal to the stage of capacity
that the unit is operating at when the redline alert was
initiated.
When loadshed command is received the control will
reduce capacity as shown in Table 15.

The controller will have a maximum demand limit timer
of 1 hour that prevents the unit from staying in load shed
or redline alert longer than 1 hour in the event the
controller loses communication with the network load
shed module. Should the maximum demand limit timer
expire prior to receiving the loadshed device command
from CCN, the control will stop demand limit mode and
return to normal operation.

APPENDIX III. FAN PERFORMANCE
General Fan Performance Notes:
1. Interpolation is permissible. Do not extra polate.
2. External static pressure is the static pressure difference between the return duct and the supply duct plus the static
pressure caused by any FIOPs or accessories.
3. Tabular data accounts for pressure loss due to clean filters, unit casing, and wet coils. Factory options and accessories
may add static pressure losses. Selection software is available, through your salesperson, to help you select the best
motor/drive combination for your a pplication.
4. The Fan Performance tables offer motor/drive recommendations. In cases when two motor/drive combinations would
work, Carrier recommended the lower horsepower option.
5. For information on the electrical properties of Carrier’s motors, please see the Electrical information section of this
book.
6. For more information on the performance limits of Carrier’s motors, see the application data section of this book.
