delivery receipt and all copies of the bill of lading which
is countersigned by the delivering carrier. If damaged,
immediately contact your Greenheck Representative.
Any physical damage to the unit after acceptance is not
the responsibility of Greenheck Fan Corporation.
Unpacking
Verify that all required parts and the correct quantity
of each item have been received. If any items are
missing, report shortages to your local representative to
arrange for obtaining missing parts. Sometimes it is not
possible that all items for the unit be shipped together
due to availability of transportation and truck space.
Confirmation of shipment(s) must be limited to only
items on the bill of lading.
Handling
Units are to be rigged and moved by the lifting brackets
provided or by the skid when a forklift is used. Location
of brackets varies by model and size. Handle in such
a manner as to keep from scratching or chipping the
coating. Damaged finish may reduce ability of unit to
resist corrosion.
Storage
Units are protected against damage during shipment. If
the unit cannot be installed and operated immediately,
precautions need to be taken to prevent deterioration of
the unit during storage. The user assumes responsibility
of the unit and accessories while in storage. The
manufacturer will not be responsible for damage during
storage. These suggestions are provided solely as a
convenience to the user.
INDOOR — The ideal environment for the storage of
units and accessories is indoors, above grade, in a
low humidity atmosphere which is sealed to prevent
the entry of blowing dust, rain, or snow. Temperatures
should be evenly maintained between 30°F (-1°C)
and 110°F (43°C) (wide temperature swings may
cause condensation and “sweating” of metal parts).
All accessories must be stored indoors in a clean, dry
atmosphere.
Remove any accumulations of dirt, water, ice, or snow
and wipe dry before moving to indoor storage. To avoid
“sweating” of metal parts allow cold parts to reach room
temperature. To dry parts and packages use a portable
electric heater to get rid of any moisture build up. Leave
coverings loose to permit air circulation and to allow for
periodic inspection.
The unit should be stored at least 3½ in. (89 mm) off the
floor on wooden blocks covered with moisture proof
paper or polyethylene sheathing. Aisles between parts
and along all walls should be provided to permit air
circulation and space for inspection.
OUTDOOR — Units designed for outdoor applications
may be stored outdoors, if absolutely necessary. Roads
or aisles for portable cranes and hauling equipment are
needed.
The fan should be placed on a level surface to prevent
water from leaking into the unit. The unit should be
elevated on an adequate number of wooden blocks so
that it is above water and snow levels and has enough
blocking to prevent it from settling into soft ground.
Locate parts far enough apart to permit air circulation,
sunlight, and space for periodic inspection. To minimize
water accumulation, place all unit parts on blocking
supports so that rain water will run off.
Do not cover parts with plastic film or tarps as these
cause condensation of moisture from the air passing
through heating and cooling cycles.
Inspection and Maintenance during
Storage
While in storage, inspect fans once per month. Keep a
record of inspection and maintenance performed.
If moisture or dirt accumulations are found on parts,
the source should be located and eliminated. At each
inspection, rotate the fan wheel by hand ten to fifteen
revolutions to distribute lubricant on motor. Every three
months, the fan motor should be energized. If paint
deterioration begins, consideration should be given to
touch-up or repainting. Fans with special coatings may
require special techniques for touch-up or repair.
Machined parts coated with rust preventive should be
restored to good condition promptly if signs of rust
occur. Immediately remove the original rust preventive
coating with petroleum solvent and clean with lint-free
cloths. Polish any remaining rust from surface with
crocus cloth or fine emery paper and oil. Do not destroy
the continuity of the surfaces. Wipe thoroughly clean
with Tectyl
hard to reach internal surfaces or for occasional use,
consider using Tectyl
or the equivalent.
REMOVING FROM STORAGE — As units are removed
from storage to be installed in their final location, they
should be protected and maintained in a similar fashion,
until the equipment goes into operation.
Prior to installing the unit and system components,
inspect the unit assembly to make sure it is in working
order.
1. Check all fasteners, set screws on the fan, wheel,
bearings, drive, motor base, and accessories for
tightness.
2. Rotate the fan wheel(s) by hand and assure no parts
are rubbing.

The unit is equipped with an evaporator coil that
will be connected to a separate condensing unit
(provided by others). Depending on controlling options,
the condensing unit will be controlled by others or
an integral unit microprocessor controller. Piping
components such as thermostatic expansion valve, filter
drier, sight glass, etc., shall be field-provided.
Electric Post-Heaters
The optional post-heater is used as a heat source for
the building and is integrated into the supply airstream.
A temperature sensor (with a field-adjustable set point)
is mounted in the supply airstream after the post-heater
to turn the post-heater on. A SCR heater allows for
an infinite amount of modulating control of the heat to
provide an accurate discharge temperature during the
call for heat.
As standard, the post-heater control panel is not single
point wired to the unit control center. Separate power
must be supplied to the post-heater disconnect (located
in unit control center). Electric heaters are available in
208, 230, 460, or 575 VAC (refer to heater nameplate for
voltage).
Outdoor Air Weatherhood
Outdoor air weatherhood will be factory-mounted.

Hot Water / Chilled Water Coils
Water coils can be used for a single purpose such
as heating or cooling, or their function can be
alternated between heating and cooling by changing
the temperature of the water flowing through the coil.
Depending on the application, it may be necessary to
use a glycol mixture to prevent the liquid from freezing.
The water coils are engineered to operate at pressures
up to 250 PSIG and temperatures up to 300°F, but
ancillary equipment such as valves and pumps will often
dictate lower operating temperatures. All water coils
are pressure tested at the factory with 450 PSIG of dry
nitrogen.

Electrical Installation
WARNING
The roof lining contains high voltage wiring. To prevent
electrocution, do not puncture the interior or exterior
panels of the roof.
WARNING
To prevent injury or death due to electrocution or
contact with moving parts, lock disconnect switch
open.
IMPORTANT
Before connecting power to the unit, read and
understand the following instructions and wiring
diagrams. Complete wiring diagrams are attached on
the inside of the control center door(s).
IMPORTANT
All wiring should be done in accordance with the latest
edition of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA70
and any local codes that may apply. In Canada, wiring
should be done in accordance with the Canadian
Electrical Code.
IMPORTANT
The equipment must be properly grounded and
bonded. Any wiring running through the unit in the
airstream must be protected by metal conduit, metal
clad cable or raceways.
CAUTION
If replacement wire is required, it must have a
temperature rating of at least 105°C, except for an
energy cut-off or sensor lead wire which must be rated
to 150°C.
DANGER
High voltage electrical input is needed for this
equipment. This work should be performed by a
qualified electrician.
CAUTION
Any wiring deviations may result in personal injury or
property damage. Manufacturer is not responsible
for any damage to, or failure of the unit caused by
incorrect final wiring.
WARNING
If unit is equipped with a microprocessor, terminals Y1,
Y2 and W1 cannot be wired to a thermostat. Wiring to
these terminals will bypass unit’s internal safeties.
1. Determine the Size of the Main Power Lines
The unit’s nameplate states the voltage and the unit’s
MCA. The main power lines to the unit should be
sized accordingly. The nameplate is located on the
outside of the unit on the control panel side.
2. Determine the Size of Electric Heater Wiring
An optional electric heater may require a separate
power supply. The power connection should
be made to the factory-provided electric heater
disconnect and must be compatible with the ratings
on the nameplate, supply power voltage, phase and
amperage. Consult ANSI/NFPA 70 and CSA C22.1
for proper conductor sizing.
3. Provide the Opening(s) for the Electrical
Connections
Electrical openings vary by unit size and arrangement
and are field-supplied.
4. Connect the Power Supplies
Connect the main power lines and electric heater
power lines to the disconnect switches or terminal
blocks and main grounding lug(s). Torque field
connections to manufacturer’s recommendations.
5. Wire the Optional Convenience Outlet
The convenience outlet requires a separate 115V
power supply circuit. The circuit must include short
circuit protection which may need to be supplied by
others.
6. Connect Field-Wired Low Voltage Components
Most factory-supplied electrical components are
prewired. To determine what electrical accessories
require additional field-wiring, refer to the unitspecific wiring diagram located on the inside of the
control center access door.
Control wires should not be run inside the same conduit
as that carrying the supply power. Make sure that
field-supplied conduit does not interfere with access
panel operation. All low voltage wiring should be run in
conduit wherever it may be exposed to the weather.
The low voltage control circuit is 24 VAC and control
wiring should not exceed 0.75 ohms. If wire resistance
exceeds 0.75 ohms, an isolation relay should be added
to the unit control center and wired in place of the
remote switch (typically between terminal blocks R
and G on the terminal strip. The relay must be rated
for at least 5 amps and have a 24 VAC coil. Failure to
comply with these guidelines may cause motor starters
to “chatter” or not pull in which can cause contactor
failures and/or motor failures.
Energy Recovery Ventilator with Tempering
10
Field-Provided Disconnect
If field-installing an additional disconnect switch, it
is recommended that there is at least four feet of
service room between the switch and system access
panels. When providing or replacing fuses in a fusible
disconnect, use dual element time delay fuses and size
according to the rating plate.
Discharge Air Temperature Sensor
The discharge air temperature
sensor is factory-mounted in the
blower discharge section of the unit
behind the blower cut off plate.
