SAFETY SUMMARY
GENERAL SAFETY NOTICES
The following general safety notices supplement the specific warnings and cautions appearing elsewhere in this
manual. They are recommended precautions that must be understood and applied during operation and maintenance
of the equipment covered herein. The generalsafety notices are presented in the following three sections labeled: First
Aid, Operating Precautions and Maintenance Precautions. A listing of the specific warnings and cautions appearing
elsewhere in the manual follows the general safety notices.
FIRST AID
An injury, no matter how slight, should never go unattended. Always obtain first aid or medical attentionimmediately.
OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
Always wear safety glasses.
Keep hands, clothing and tools clear of the evaporator and condenser fans.
No work should be performed on the unit until all circuit breakers, start-stop switches are turned off, and power supply
is disconnected.
Always work in pairs. Never work on the equipment alone.
In case of severe vibration or unusual noise, stop the unit and investigate.
MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS
Beware of unannounced starting of the evaporator fan. Do not open the evaporator access panels before turning power
off, disconnecting and securing the power source.
Be sure power is turned off before working on motors, controls, solenoid valves and electrical control switches. Tag
circuit breaker and power supply to prevent accidental energizing of circuit.
Do not bypass any electrical safety devices, e.g. bridging an overload, or using any sort of jumper wires. Problems
with the system should be diagnosed, and any necessary repairs performed, by qualified service personnel.
In case of electrical fire, open circuit switch and extinguish with CO
(never use water).

CAUTION
Sharp edges of coil fins are exposed. To prevent injury, cover top of evaporator with cardboard or a few
layers of heavy tape.
CAUTION
To avoid coil damage, cover evaporator face with plywood or other rigid sheet material. If any coil fins
are mashed or bent, straighten with a coil fin comb of the proper tooth spacing (refer to “coil fins/inch”
in Table 1 through Table 2). Check for refrigerant leaks.
CAUTION
Before attempting to remove fan motors or motor mounts, place a piece of plywood over evaporator
coils to prevent coil damage.

1. INTRODUCTION
The 90M series single--package cooling units (See
Figure 1) are designed to provide air conditioning
aboard marine vessels and in industrial applications.
The 90MA units are fitted with sea water cooled
condensers while the 90MF units are fitted with fresh
water cooled condensers. Both units are factory
charged, wired and piped. The 90MU units are similar
except they are configured for use with a remote
mounted condenser.
An accessory discharge plenum may be installed to
provide free--blow into the conditioned space. Also, an
accessory electric, hot water or steam coil heater may be
installed to provide comfort heating.
3.1Inspect Unit
Check unit against shipping order. Inspect carefully for
concealed shipping damage. If shipment is damaged or
incomplete,file claim w ith transportation company and
advise Carrier Transicold immediately.
3.2Protect Unit from Damage
To maintain warranty, protect unit against adverse
weather, theft, or vandalism on j ob site.
3.3Provide Unit Support
Refer to Figure 2 and Table 1 through Table 2 for unit
size and weight. If desired, construct a frame of I--beams
or angle iron that adequately supports unit. See
Figure 12.
3.4Install Accessory Heating Coil (if applicable)
Electric heaters are installed at the top of the unit. Water
or steam coil must be installed through the back of the
unit as described in the Installation Instructions shipped
with the accessory coil.
3.5Rig and Place Unit
NOTE
Install accessories before placing unit.

3.INSTALLATION
To install the unit, do the following:
a. Provide space around unit for service, filter access,
and overhead clearance as indicated in Figure 2.
b. Move and store unit in upright position.
c. Useslings with spacer under base skid to prevent pan-
el damage when using hoist.
d. Units as shipped are adequately dampened against
vibration. If additional dampening is desired, place
sponge rubber or rubber mat, between deck and base
of unit or install vibration isolators.
e. Unit should be level. Unit leveling tolerance is 1/8
inch per linear foot in any direction.
3.6Install Accessory Plenum (If Supplied)
Use plenum as template to mark hole locations in top
panel. Drill 5/32--in. (0.4 cm) holes in top panel at
marked locations and attach plenum with screws
supplied.
Connect ventilation ducts to flanges on outside--air
supply opening (See Figure 2) using a flexible
connection. Attach ductwork to ship structure and
insulate with fiberglass and vapor barrier to reduce
sound transmission and prevent vapor condensation.
Weatherproof external ductwork, joints, and openings
in accordance with applicable codes. Ducts passing
through an unconditioned space must be insulated and
covered with a vapor barrier.
3.8Install Return Air Ductwork (If required)
The unit back panel is to be field cut for alternate
return--air (or outdoor--air inlet) opening as indicated in
Figure 2. To install ductwork:
a. Cut out the alternate return--air opening as required.
