LA300/LB360/LB480 MOTOR MOUNTING
The LA300, LB360 and LB480 ship from the factory with a
motor mounting adapter plate for use with the 7.5 and 10 HP
motors. If a 5 HP motor is used,the adapter is not necessary
and should be removed and discarded.
LB600 MOTOR MOUNTING
The motor mounting plate will accommodate a 10 or 15 HP
motor. One set of boltholes is provided on each end of the
motor mounting plate for either motor. The motor mounting
plate can be raised or lowered to any position on the adjustment screws to adjust the belt tension for the various pulley
settings to cover the complete range of blower speeds.
The physical size of the 15HP motor reducesthe adjustment
range of the motor mounting plate. To maximize this amount
of adjustment, one set of boltholesis provided near the
adjustment screws on each end of the motor mounting plate
(refer to 4).
For some motor/blower wheel arrangements,however, the
motor cannot be mounted in these bolt holes because the
motor terminal box would interfere with one of the blower section panels. To make these motor/blower wheel arrangements possible, a second set of boltholes is provided near
the pivot bolts on each end of the motor mounting plate.

The motors used withthe evaporator blower are 3-phaseand
can drive the blower wheels from either end of the blower
section. Reversing the direction of rotation can be accomplished by changing the connection of the power supply wiring at the motor terminal box.
NOTE: The 7.5-15 HP blower motors have solid bases
and are not inherently protected. For proper
operation, these motorsrequire overload
heater elements. Please see curent product
price pages for overloads.
Unitary Products Group7
The 15 HP drive package requires two different lengths of
belts to vary the blower wheel RPM over the complete range
of rated conditions. When the motor is mounted near the
adjustment screws, the two lengths of belt are interchangeable except for the higher and lower limits of blower wheel
RPM. When the m otor is mounted near the pivot bolts, the
shorter length of belt is recommended for the higher blower
wheel Rpm's and the longer length of belt is recommended
for the lower blower wheel Rpm's. See Page 7 for the recommended blower motor locations.

UNIT INSTALLATION
LOCATION
The evaporator blowers are not designed for outdoor installation. They must be located inside the building structure,
either inside or outside the conditioned space where they are
protected from rain and other such moisture.
The unit should be located as close to the condensing unit as
practical and positioned to minimize bends in the refrigerant
piping.
Units being installed vertically or horizontally can be set
directly on a floor or platform, or supported by metal or
wooden beams.
Units being installed horizontally (LA300, LB360 & LB480
only) can be suspended from above as shown in figure 12.
Refer to form 035-18501-000 for more information on the
installationof the suspension accessory and for the individual
load on each hanger rod.

FIGURE 8 - LB600 AIRFLOW ARRANGEMENTS
The coil section and the blower section may be assembled
together as shown in 8. All arrangements may be by rearranging the panels as shown.
When arranged vertically (8, arrangements 1 through 3), the
LB600 can be set directly on any floor or platform that is
capable of supporting its weight.
When arranged horizontally (8, arrangements 4 through 7),
the evaporator coil section can be set directly on the floor, but
a 9" support is required under the blower section to stabilize
the unit. The support should extend the full width of the
blower section and be located under the edge away from the
evaporator coil section.If the unit does not have to be
secured to the platform, the 9" support will not have to be
bolted to either the blower section or the floor.
The evaporator blower arrangement 7 shown in 8 is not recommended for bottom support due to interference with the
ductwork connection.
RIGGING
Caremustbetakenwhenmovingtheunit. Donotremove
any packaging until the unit is near the place of installation.
SPREADER BARS SHOULD BE USED BETWEEN THE
SLINGS TO PREVENT CRUSHING THE UNIT FRAME OR
PANELS. When preparing to move the unit, always determine the center of gravity of the unit in order to equally distribute the weight. Rig the unit by attaching chain or cable
slings around the bottom skid. A lift truck may be used to
raise a unit to a suspended location. Refer to Table 2 for the
total unit operating weight.
CLEARANCES
A 25-inch clearance is required on the end with the piping
connections and the supply air blower motor to properly service and maintain the unit and to replace the filters.
Some clearance will also be required for the duct and power
wire connections. A clearance equal to the unit width is
required on one end of the unit if the blower shaft or evaporator coil is to be replaced without moving the unit.

DUCT CONNECTIONS
Ductwork should always be suspended with hangers or supported by legs. It should never be fastened directly to the
building structure.
Allow clearance around ducts for safety in the handling of
heated air and for insulation when required.
INSULATION
Ductwork insulation should meet the following criteria:
Be used when ducts pass through an unconditioned space in
the cooling season or through an unheated space during the
heating season.
Unitary Products Group15
Include a vapor barrier around the outside to prevent the
absorption of moisture.
Be no less than 2 inches thick with the weatherproof coating
when applied to ducts exposed to outdoor conditions.
SUPPLY AIR DUCTS
See 13 for suggested method of connecting supply air ductwork. Non-flammable material collars should be used to minimize the transmission of noise and/or vibration.

RETURN AIR DUCT ANGLES
Return air duct angles are shipped turned in.They are
intended to be unscrewed and turned for connection of ductwork. The return air grille accessory attaches in the same
manner as the panels.
DRAIN CONNECTIONS
All drain lines MUST be trapped and located so they will not
be exposed to freezing temperatures.
The evaporator blower has 7/8" OD steel condensate stub at
each end of a single drain pan. Both ends are closed with
plastic caps. A plastic or rubber ell can be used. (Field supplied) Attach the ell to the desired end and run a full size 7/8"
drain line to the nearest drain facility. Seal the cap at the
unused end with suitable mastic.
Drain piping should be constructed as shown in 14. The 3inch dimension must equal or exceed the negative static
pressure developed by the supply air blowers. If it does not,
the condensate will not drain properly and may overflow the
drain pan. The trap must be at least 2-inches deep to maintain a water seal under all operating conditions, especially
when the blowers are starting.
Hard drawn copper tubing should be used where no appreciable amount of bending around pipes or other obstructions
is necessary. Use long radius ells wherever possible. If soft
copper is used, care should be taken to avoid sharp bends
that may cause a restriction.
Where refrigerant lines pass through a wall, pack fiberglass
insulation and a sealing material such as permagum around
the refrigerant lines to reduce vibration and to retain some
flexibility in the lines.
16UnitaryProductsGroup
035-18496-000-C-1102
Suitable hangers, brackets or clamps should support the
refrigerant lines.
Braze all copper-to-copper joints with Silfos-5 or equivalent
brazing material. Do not use soft solder.
Never braze or solder the liquid and suction lines together.
The complete suction line should be insulated with no less
than ½" Armaflex or equivalent.
If it is desirable to tape or wire the liquid and suctions lines
together for support purposes, they must be completely insulatedfromeachother.
EVAPORATOR SECTION PIPING
The units are shipped with a holding charge of R-22. The
connections are terminatedwith a copper disc brazed over
the ends.
Before starting installation of the mains, be sure the unit has
not developed a leak in transit by connecting a pressure
gauge to the service access port. If pressure still exits, the
circuit may be considered leak free. If pressure does not
exist, the unit must be evacuated along with the field installed
refrigerant piping.
NOTE: To minimize the possibility of system failure
due to dirt and moisture, a filter-drier must be
installed in each liquid line as close to the
evaporator as possible.Filter-driers are not
supplied with the evaporator blowers.They
are supplied with the matching HA/HB series
condensing units.
The temperature required to make or break a brazed joint is
sufficiently high to cause oxidation of the copper unless an
inert atmosphere is provided.
The liquid, suction and drain connectionsinside the unit must
be piped to the outside. Refer to 17 and 23 for unit dimensions or the locations and the dimensions of the access
openings in the unit panel.
Remove the evaporatorholding charge and any caps or discs
on the liquid and suction connections that will not permit a
free flow of nitrogen.
Connect a supplyof dry nitrogen through a reducing regulator
to an access valve or charging tail. Choose a procedure that
will allow nitrogen to flow continuously through the system
and reach all jointsto be brazed.
Begin the refrigerant main piping by installing the liquid line
from the condensing unit to the evaporator liquid connection,
maintaining a flow of nitrogen during all brazing operations.
The filter drier and sight glass must be located in this line,
close to the evaporator. Make the suction line connection at
the evaporator and run the line to the condensing unit.
After puncturing the sealing caps with a small drill bit,
unbraze the condensing unit suction disc and connect the
line. Maintainaflowofnitrogenthroughtheliquidlinetothe
evaporator, through the evaporator, back to the condensing
unit and out the suction connection and service port.
NOTE: Size the suction line outside the evaporator
casing per the line sizing information provided
in the condensing unit instruction form 03518499-000.
EXPANSION VALVE BULB INSTALLATION
LA300
The bulbs for the thermal expansionvalve on theblower units
are not factory-installed in its final location; it's only temporarily taped for shipment.They must be fastened in a 4
o'clock and 8 o'clock position to the common suction l ine out
of the evaporator coil after piping connections are made. Use
the bulb clamps from the bag taped to the suction connection
inside the blower unit.
LB360/LB480/LB600
The bulbs for the thermal expansionvalve on theblower units
are not factory-installed in its final location; it's only temporarily taped for shipment. The bulbs for system one must be
fastened in a 4 o'clock and 8 o'clock position to the system
one suction line of system one leaving the evaporator coil
after piping connections are made. Repeat the procedure for
system two, locating the bulbs in a 4 o'clock and 8 o'clock
position to the system two suction line. Use the bulb clamps
from the bag taped to the suction connection inside the
blower unit.
NOTE: Ensure the TXV bulbs are not crossed
between systems.Undesirable performance
and possible compressor damage may occur.
LIQUID LINE SOLENOIDS
The unit is shipped with factory installed, normally closed, liquid line solenoid valves. When the solenoid coil is energized
with a 24-volt signal, the valve will open.
During brazing operations, the valves should be placed in the
OPEN position by removing the stem cap with a 9/16”
wrench, then rotating the exposed valve stem inward
(CLOCKWISE), approximately 10-12 full turns (from the fully
CLOSED position), using a 4” adjustable wrench.
The valve stems should be returned to the CLOSED
(COUNTER-CLOCKWISE) position prior to the unit’soperation. The “Pump-out” procedure is detailed in the following
section.
The sequence of operation applies to the HA/HB condensing
units and LA/LB air handlers when applied as a matched system. Non-matched systems will have to be field wired to operate in a similar fashion as described on page 19.
NOTE: See Liquid Line Solenoid Wiring on page 22.
Unitary Products Group17
PUMP OUT
The pump out function is a standard feature on the 25 to 50
ton systems. The pump out circuit is activated each time the
first and third compressor stage is called for by the thermostat. As such, it’sa“Pump Out On Start Up” design. A normally closed solenoid valve (POS1, 2, 3 or 4) is placed in the
liquid line, just prior to expansion valve.
When cooling is not being called for by the thermostat, the
pump out solenoid (POS) is not energized, so it’sinthe
closed position. When the Simplicity™ control receives a call
for cooling, it energizes a compressor. With the POS being
closed, it causes the pressure on the low side of the system
to begin falling.
When the low pressure switch (LPS) opens, the control board
energizes its on-board pump out relay, providing a 24 vac
output to an external relaly used to energized the pump out
solenoid. The refrigeration circuit being controlled is not in
normal operating mode.

AIR SYSTEM ADJUSTMENT
Refer to Tables 7-11 on pages 19-20 to adjust the air system.
If the low pressure switch is already open on a call for cooling, the pump out relay is energized immediately. If the LPS
does not open after 5 minutes, the pump out relay is energized.
BEARING ALIGNMENT: LB600
Before the supply air blowerdrive is installed,turn the blower
assemblyby hand several times. If it doesn't rotate freely, the
center bearing may have been knocked out of alignment during shipping and/or rigging. To realign, refer to 15 and the following instructions:
1.Loosen the bearing collar set screw.
2.With a drift pin in the bearing collar removal hole, loosen
the bearing collar by tapping the drift pin in the direction
opposite to the shaft rotation.
3.Loosen bolts "A" and "B".
4.Remove the shim.
NOTE: The bearing support angle must be horizontal
to the unit and below the bearing.
5.Tighten bolts "B" without the shim.
6.Tighten bolts "A".
7.With a drift pin in the bearing collar removal hole, tighten
the bearing collar by tapping the drift pin once in the
direction of the shaft rotation.
TWIN BELT DRIVE ADJUSTMENT
Check to see if both belts drive at the same speed. Do this
by making a mark across both belts. Turn the drive several
revolutions by hand. If mark has not separated, the belts are
traveling at the same speed.
Twingroove blower motor pulleys should be installed with the
shaft set screw (A) towards the motor (see 16).

Check belt tension. Drive packages are supplied with fiberglass belts that must be properly tensioned at installation
because they do not stretch. The belt should deflect 3/16"
per foot of belt span with a 2 or 3-pound force. Alignment of
the resilient motor mount can be corrected by adjustment at
the slots on the end opposite the pulleys.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The electric box ships complete with motor starter, transformers, relays and terminal block for making field connections.
Remember: One air handlers with factory installed pump out
solenoids, wires to the solenoid must be field connected.
Refer to Figures 30 & 31 for Indoor Unit Wiring Diagrams.
Install a power supply to meet the requirements listed in
table 6.
Provide a disconnect switch and fusing as required.
Install interconnecting control wiring between condensing
section, evaporator blower and room thermostat.
Starters are shipped without overloads. These must be
ordered separately to match the selected motor used in the
air handler. See unit’s Technical Guide or price page for correct overload.
NOTE: For the 10HP 200/208-volt motors, install the
power wiring to the supply air blower through
the starter.
These units are equipped from the factory with a correctly sized motor starter; overload elements are not
factory supplied. Three elements required per unit.
Filters must be cleaned or replaced as often as necessary to
assure good airflow and filtering action.
To remove filters through the sides of the unit, remove either
the solid sidepanel on the piping end, or the larger side panel
on the end opposite the piping.
To remove the filters from the front of the unit, loosen 2
screws and raise the top filter retainer. The upper filters can

be lifted over the center filter lip. Three wing nuts are provided under the center filter retainer. Remove these and a
part of the center filter support, givingaccess to the bottom filters.
Drain pan(s) should be inspected regularly to assure proper
drainage.
The evaporator blower bearings and blower motor bearings
are permanently lubricated.

To check the supply air CFM after the initial balancing has been completed:
1.Drill two (2) 5/16-inch holes in the side panel as shown in
Figure 24.
2.Insert at least 8 inches of 1/4 inch tubing into each of
these holes for sufficient penetration into the airflow on
both sides of the evaporator coil.
3.Using an inclined manometer, determine the pressure
drop across a dry evaporator coil. Since the moisture on
an evaporator coil may vary greatly, measuring the pressure drop across the wet coil under field conditions
would be inaccurate. To assure a dry coil, the refrigerant
system should be de-activated while the test is being
run.
4.Knowing the pressure drop across a dry coil, the actual
CFM through the unit can be determinedfrom the curves
shown in Figures 25-28.
If the CFM is above or below the specified value, the supply
air motor pulley may have to be readjusted. After one hour of
operation, check the belt and pulleys for tightness and alignment.
After readings have been obtained, remove the tubes and
seal up the drilled holes in the side panel. 5/16 inch dot plugs
(P/N 029-12880) are available through normal York parts
ordering procedures.
