INTRODUCTION
Models FA4B, FB4B, FC4C, and FH4B are designed for flexibility and can be used for upflow, horizontal, or downflow (kit required and manufactured and mobile home) applications. These units are designed to meet the low air leak requirements currently in effect. Because of this, the units need special attention in the condensate pan and drain connection area and when brazing tubing. These units are available for systems of 18,000 through 60,000 Btuh nominal cooling capacity. Factory authorized electric heater packages are available in sizes 3 through 30kw. See Product Data Literature for available accessory kits.
HEATER PACKAGES
This unit may or may not be equipped with an electric heater package. For units not equipped with factory installed heat, a factory approved, field installed UL listed heater package is available from your equipment supplier. See unit rating plate for a list of factory approved heaters. Heaters that are not factory approved could cause damage which would not be covered under the equipment warranty. If fan coil contains a factory installed heater package, minimum circuit ampacity (MCA) and maximum fuse/breaker may be different than units with a same size field installed accessory heater. The difference is not an error and is due to calculation difference per UL guidelines.
INSTALLATION
PROCEDURE 1—CHECK EQUIPMENT
Unpack unit and move to final location. Remove carton taking care not to damage unit. Inspect equipment for damage prior to installation. File claim with shipping company if shipment is damaged or incomplete. Locate unit rating
plate which contains proper installation information. Check rating plate to be sure unit matches job specifications.
PROCEDURE 2—MOUNT UNIT
Unit can stand or lie on floor, or hang from ceiling or wall. Allow space for wiring, piping, and servicing unit. IMPORTANT: When unit is installed over a finished ceiling and/or living area, building codes may require a field-supplied secondary condensate
pan to be installed under the entire unit. Some localities may allow as an alternative, the running of a separate, secondary condensate line. Consult local codes for additional restrictions or precautions.
A. Upflow Installation
If return air is to be ducted through a floor, set unit on floor over opening and use 1/8- to 1/4-in. thick fireproof resilient gasket between duct, unit, and floor.
Side return is a field option on slope coil models. Cut opening per dimensions. (See Fig. 1.) A field-supplied bottom closure is required.

CAUTION: The conversion of the fan coil to downflow requires special procedures for the condensate drains on both A-coil and Slope units. The vertical drains have an overflow hole between the primary and secondary drain holes. This hole is plugged for all applications except downflow, but must be used for downflow. During the conversion process, remove the plastic cap covering the vertical drains only and discard. Remove the plug from the overflow hole and discard. At completion of the downflow installation, caulk around the vertical pan fitting to door joint to retain the low air leak performance of the unit. Failure to follow this CAUTION could result in minor personal injury or product and property damage.
In this application, field conversion of the evaporator is required using accessory downflow kit along with an accessory base kit. Use fireproof resilient gasket, 1/8- to 1/4-in. thick, between duct, unit, and floor.
NOTE: To convert units for downflow applications, refer to Installation Instructions supplied with kit for proper installation. For slope fan coils, use kit Part No. KFADC0201SLP. For A-coils, use kit Part No. KFADC0401ACL. Use fireproof resilient gasket, 1/8- to 1/4-in. thick, between duct, unit, and floor.
NOTE: Gasket kit number KFAHD0101SLP is also required for all downflow applications to maintain low air leak/low sweat performance. C. Horizontal Installation
Units must not be installed with access panels facing up or down. The FH4B003 and 004 size units equipped with accessory cooling coils are not approved for horizontal applications. All other units are factory built for horizontal left installation. (See Fig. 2 and 6.) When suspending unit from ceiling, dimples in casing indicate suitable location of screws for mounting metal support straps. (See Fig. 2.)
CAUTION: For optimum condensate drainage performance in horizontal installations, unit should be leveled along its length and width. Failure to follow this CAUTION could result in minor personal injury or product and property damage.
NOTE: Modular units can be disassembled and components moved separately to installation area for reassembly. This process accommodates
small scuttle holes and limiting entrances to installation sites. (See Fig. 3.)

b. If fan coil is against wall, secure fan coil to wall stud using 1/8-in. thick right-angle brackets. Attach brackets to fan coil using No. 10
self tapping screws and to wall stud using 5/16-in. lag screws. (See Fig. 7.)
PROCEDURE 3AIR DUCTS
Connect supply-air duct over the outside of 3/4-in. flanges provided on supply-air opening. Secure duct to flange, using proper fasteners for type of duct used, and seal duct-to-unit joint. If return-air flanges are required, install factory-authorized accessory kit.
Use flexible connectors between ductwork and unit to prevent transmission of vibration. When electric heater is installed, use heat-resistant material for flexible connector between ductwork and unit at discharge connection. Ductwork passing through unconditioned space must be insulated and covered with vapor barrier.
Units equipped with 20-30kw electric heaters require a 1-in. clearance to combustible materials for the first 36 in. of supply duct.
Ductwork Acoustical Treatment
Metal duct systems that do not have a 90° elbow and 10 ft of main duct to first branch takeoff may require internal acoustical insulation lining. As an alternative, fibrous ductwork may be used if constructed and installed in accordance with the latest edition of SMACNA construction standard on fibrous glass ducts. Both acoustical lining and fibrous ductwork shall comply with National Fire Protection Association as tested by UL Standard 181 for Class 1 air ducts.
PROCEDURE 4ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
All products from the factory utilize a printed-circuit board (PCB) which has a low voltage circuit protective fuse (5 amp), fan motor speed tap selection terminal (SPT), and time delay relay (TDR) jumper. To disable the TDR feature, sever the jumper wire JW1. (See Fig. 8.)
When a factory-approved accessory control package has been installed, check all factory wiring per unit wiring diagram and inspect factory wiring connections to be sure none were loosened in transit or installation. If a different control package is required, see unit rating plate.
CAUTION: If a disconnect switch is to be mounted on unit, select a location where drill or fastener will not contact
electrical or refrigerant components. Failure to follow this CAUTION could result in minor personal injury or porduct and property damage.

Fig. 8Fan Coil Printed-Circuit Board
On units with a factory installed disconnect with pull-out removed, service and maintenance can be safely performed on only the load side of the control package.
WARNING: Field wires on the line side of the disconnect found in the fan coil unit remain live, even when the pull-out is removed. Service and maintenance to incoming wiring can not be performed until the main disconnect switch (remote to the unit) is turned off. Failure to do so will result in electrical shock causing personal injury or death.
A. Line Voltage Connections
FA4B units installed without electric heat require the use of a factory-authorized Power Plug Kit (KFAPP0125PLG). This kit provides the electrical connections necessary to supply the FA4B unit with 230-v power when electric heat is not present. This kit is required only on those FA4B applications which do not use electric heat.
For units without electric heat:
1. Connect 208/230v power leads from field disconnect to yellow and black stripped leads.
2. Connect ground wire to unit ground lug.
3. If unit contains an electric heater, remove and discard power plug (if equipped) from fan coil and connect male plug from heater to female plug from unit wiring harness. (See Electric Heater Installation Instructions.)
NOTE: Units installed without electric heat should have a field-supplied sheet metal block-off plate covering the heater opening. This will reduce air leakage and formation of exterior condensation.
B. 24-v Control System
CONNECTION TO UNIT
Wire low voltage in accordance with wiring label on the blower. (See Fig. 9, 10, 11, 12, and 14.) Use no. 18 AWG color-coded, insulated (35°C minimum) wire to make the low-voltage connections between the thermostat, the unit, and the outdoor equipment. If the thermostat is located more than 100 ft from the unit (as measured along the low-voltage wire), use No. 16 AWG color-coded, insulated (35°C minimum) wire. All wiring must be NEC Class 1 and must be separated from incoming power leads.
Refer to outdoor unit wiring instructions for any additional wiring procedure recommendations.
TRANSFORMER INFORMATION
Transformer is factory-wired for 230v operation. For 208v applications, disconnect the black wire from the 230v terminal on transformer and connect it to the 208v terminal (See Fig. 15).
HEATER STAGING
CAUTION: If W2, W3, and E on any 3 stage heater (18, 20, 24, or 30kw), are individually connected as with outdoor
thermostats or any other situation, emergency heat relay must be used. This relay is in kit Part No. KHAOT0201SEC and is normally used with kit Part No. KHAOT0301FST for 2 outdoor thermostat system. Failure to follow this CAUTION could result in minor personal injury or product and property damage.
The controls are factory circuited for single-stage operation. For 2-stage operation, use outdoor thermostat kit Part No. KHAOT0301FST, and for 3-stage use both kits Part No. KHAOT0201SEC and KHAOT0301FST.
When 2 stages are desired, cut W3 at the W2 wire nut, strip and reconnect per the thermostat kit instruction. (See Fig. 12.) When 3 stages are desired, cut the W2 wire nut off and discard. Strip W2, W3, and E and reconnect per thermostat kit instructions (See Fig. 14).
NOTE: When 3 stages are used or anytime the E terminal is not tied to W2, the emergency heat relay, part of outdoor kit Part No. KHAOT0201SEC must be used.

C. Manufactured Housing
In Manufactured Housing applications, the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 24, Chapter XX, Part 3280.714 requires that supplemental electric heat be locked out at outdoor temperatures above 40 degrees F., except for a heat pump defrost cycle. Refer to Fig. 13 for typical low voltage wiring with outdoor thermostat.
D. Ground Connections
WARNING:
According to NEC, ANSI/NFPA 70, and local codes, the cabinet must have an uninterrupted or unbroken ground to minimize personal injury if an electrical fault should occur. The ground may consist of electrical wire or metal conduit when installed in accordance with existing electrical codes. If conduit connection uses reducing washers, a separate ground wire must be used. Failure to follow this warning could result in electric shock, fire, or death.
NOTE: Use UL-listed conduit and conduit connector for connecting supply wire(s) to unit to obtain proper grounding. Grounding may also be
accomplished by using grounding lugs provided in control box.
E. Minimum CFM and Motor Speed Selection
Units with or without electric heaters require a minimum CFM. Refer to the unit wiring label to ensure that the fan speed selected is not lower than the minimum fan speed indicated.
Fan speed selection is done at the fan relay printed-circuit board. To change motor speeds, disconnect fan lead used on relay terminal (SPT) and replace with motor speed tap desired. (See Fig. 16). Save insulating cap and place on motor lead removed from relay.
NOTE: In low static applications, lower motor speed tap should be used to reduce possibility of water being blown off coil. All units have 3 motor speed taps. Low speed (red) is designed for mismatch outdoor unit applications. Medium speed (blue) is designed for
straight matched operations. High speed (black) is used with high external static duct systems of straight matched systems.

PROCEDURE 5REFRIGERANT TUBING
Use accessory tubing package or field-supplied tubing of refrigerant grade. Suction tube must be insulated. Do not use damaged, dirty, or contaminated tubing because it may plug refrigerant flow-control device. ALWAYS evacuate the coil and field-supplied tubing to 500 microns before opening outdoor unit service valves.
CAUTION: A brazing shield MUST be used when tubing sets are being brazed to the unit connections to prevent damage to the unit surface and condensate pan fitting caps. Failure to follow this CAUTION could result in minor personal injury or product and property damage.
Units have sweat suction and liquid tube connections. Make suction tube connection first.
1. Cut tubing to correct length.
2. Insert tube into sweat connection on unit until it bottoms.
3. Braze connection using silver bearing or non-silver bearing brazing materials. Do not use solder (materials which melt below 800°F). Consult local code requirements.
CAUTION: Wrap a wet cloth around rear of fitting to prevent damage to TXV and factory-made joints. Failure to follow
this CAUTION could result in minor personal injury or product and property damage.

CAUTION:
If using a TXV (FC4C factory installed) in conjunction with a single-phase reciprocating compressor, a
compressor start capacitor and relay are required. Consult outdoor unit pre-sale literature for start assist kit part no.
Replace piston if required. Check piston size shown on indoor unit rating plate to see if it matches required piston shown on outdoor unit rating plate. If it does not match, replace indoor piston with piston shipped with outdoor unit. The piston shipped with outdoor unit is correct for any approved indoor coil combination (See Fig. 17). When changing piston, use a back-up wrench. Hand tighten hex nut, then tighten with wrench 1/2 turn. Do not exceed 30 ft-lbs.
PROCEDURE 7CONDENSATE DRAINS
To connect drains, the cap openings must be removed. Use a knife to start the opening near the tab and using pliers, pull the tab to remove the disk. Clean the edge of the opening if necessary and install the condensate line. Finally caulk around the lines where they exit the fitting to retain the low leak rating of the unit.

CAUTION: The conversion of the fan coil to downflow requires special procedures for the condensate drains on both A-coil and Slope units. The vertical drains have an overflow hole between the primary and secondary drain holes. This hole is plugged for all applications except downflow, but must be used for downflow. During the conversion process, remove the plastic cap covering the vertical drains only and discard. Remove the plug from the overflow hole and discard. At completion of the downflow installation, caulk around the vertical pan fitting to door joint to retain the low air leak performance of the unit. Failur to follow this CAUTION could result in minor personal injury or product and property damage.
Units are equipped with primary and secondary 3/4-in. FPT drain connections. For proper condensate line installations see Fig. 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6. To prevent property damage and achieve optimum drainage performance, BOTH primary and secondary drain lines should be installed and include properly-sized condensate traps (See Fig. 18). Factory-approved condensate traps are available. It is recommended that PVC fittings be used on the plastic condensate pan. Finger-tighten plus 1-1/2 turns. Do not over-tighten. Use pipe dope.
CAUTION: Shallow, running traps are inadequate and DO NOT allow proper condensate drainage. (See Fig. 19.) Failure to follow this CAUTION could result in minor personal injury or product and property damage.
NOTE: When connecting condensate drain lines, avoid blocking filter access panel, thus preventing filter removal. After connection, prime both
primary and secondary condensate traps.

NOTE: If unit is located in or above a living space where damage may result from condensate overflow, a field-supplied, external condensate
pan should be installed underneath the entire unit, and a secondary condensate line (with appropriate trap) should be run from the unit into the pan. Any condensate in this external condensate pan should be drained to a noticeable place. As an alternative to using an external condensate pan, some localities may allow the use of a separate 3/4-in. condensate line (with appropriate trap) to a place where the condensate will be noticeable. The owner of the structure must be informed that when condensate flows from the secondary drain or external condensate pan, the unit requires servicing or water damage will occur.
Install traps in the condensate lines as close to the coil as possible. (See Fig. 20.) Make sure that the outlet of each trap is below its connection to the condensate pan to prevent condensate from overflowing the drain pan. Prime all traps, test for leaks, and insulate traps if located above a living area.
Condensate drain lines should be pitched downward at a minimum slop of 1 in. for every 10 ft of length. Consult local codes for additional restrictions or precautions.
