Chapter 1 Description & Specications
1.1 General Description
Industrial Climate Engineering's (ICE) Environmental Control Units (ECU) are a series of vertical wall-mounted air conditioning systems that provide heating, cooling, and ventilation for electronic equipment shelters, process control centers, E-Houses, and other applications with high internal heat gains. The series includes multiple sizes and nominal cooling capacities from 90,000 to 240,000 BTUH. Resistance heating elements are available in various wattages.
Industrial Climate Engineering ECU's feature an exclusive electronic control board.
The control board consolidates several of the electrical components, improves the air conditioner’s
reliability and has LED’s to indicate operating status and fault conditions to assist the service technician. A complete description of functions of the control board is in Section 1.6
Other standard components include:
Hot gas by-pass valve to allow operation in cold temperatures
Thermal expansion valve to improve both efciency and capacity over a wide range of ambient temperatures
Phase monitor to prevent operation if the unit is not properly phased
The ECU's are designed for easy installation and service. Major components are accessible for service beneath external panels.
All units have internal disconnects. Depending upon state and local code requirements, this feature may eliminate the need for an external breaker or disconnect.

1.5 General Operation
Refrigerant Cycle (Cooling Mode)
The air conditioners use R-410A refrigerant in a conventional vapor-compression refrigeration cycle to transfer heat from air in an enclosed space to the outside. A motorized impeller assembly blows indoor
air across the evaporator. Cold liquid refrigerant passing through the evaporator is boiled into gas by heat removed from the air. The warmed refrigerant gas enters the compressor where its temperature and pressure are increased. The hot refrigerant gas condenses to liquid as heat is transferred to outdoor
air drawn across the condenser by the condenser fan. Liquid refrigerant is metered with a thermal expansion valve (TXV) into the evaporator to repeat the cycle.

1.6 Electronic Control Board Mode of Operation
Normal
24 VAC power must be continuously applied to “R” and “C”. Upon a call for cooling “Y” and with the high pressure switch (HPS) closed, the compressor will be energized. (Note: See the delay on make feature.) The compressor will remain energized during the 3 minute timed low pressure by-pass cycle. If the low pressure switch (LPS) is open after the 3 minute by-pass cycle, the compressor will de-energize.
Lock-out
If either of the fault conditions (LPS or HPS) occurs twice during the same call for cooling, the control board will enter into and indicate the lockout mode. In the lockout mode, the compressor is turned off. If there is a call for indoor air ow “G”, the blower remains energized, the alarm output is energized and the status LED will blink to indicate which fault has occurred. When the lockout condition is cleared, the unit will reset if the demand for the thermostat is removed or when the power is reset. With the control
board, the user can now have either normally closed or normally open remote alarm dry contacts. The air conditioners are factory wired to be normally open.
Delay on Break
If the compressor is de-energized due to a loss of a cooling “Y” call or the rst fault, the unit re-start will be delayed 3 minutes from the time the contactor is de-energized. (Note: There is no delay on break if the lockout condition is reset.)
Delay on Make
On initial power up only, the unit will wait 0.03 to 10 minutes from the cooling “Y” call before al­lowing the contactor to energize. The delay can be adjusted by the DOM wheel on the board. Factory recommended wait is 3 minutes.
Low Pressure By-Pass Time
When starting, the low pressure switch (LPS) fault condition will be by-passed for 3 minutes before the contactor is de-energized.
Post Purge
Upon a call for indoor airow “G” the blower will energize immediately. When in the cooling mode, the blower will remain energized for 10 to 90 seconds (adjustable) after the compressor has been de­energized. The time period can be changed by fan purge wheel on the board. Factory setting is 90 seconds.

Green Power Contstant On 24 VAC power has been applied Red Status Contstant On Normal operation Red Status 1 Blink High pressure switch has opened twice Red Status 2 Blinks Low pressure switch has opened twice
High Pressure Switch
The high pressure switch is mounted on the liquid line. It is electrically connected to a lockout circuit on the board which shuts down the system if the refrigerant pressure rises to 650 PSIG. This protects the unit if airow through the condenser is blocked or if the outdoor fan motor fails.
Although the contacts of the high pressure switch close when the refrigerant pressure falls to approxi­mately 450 PSIG, the system must be manually reset once the lockout circuit is activated. A manual

on or turn thermostat system switch off, then back on.
Low Pressure Switch
The low pressure switch is mounted on the compressor suction line. It is designed to open if the refrigerant
pressure drops to 40 PSIG; it resets when the pressure rises to 60 PSIG. The switch protects the unit if airow through the indoor blower is impeded, if the blower motor fails, or if there is a loss of refrigerant.
1.7 Optional Controls & Packages
Protective Coating Packages
Two corrosion protection packages are offered- one for the condenser section (the Coastal Environmental package) and the other for the entire unit (the Coat-All Package).
The condenser protection package includes:
• Corrosion resistant fasteners
Sealed or partially sealed condenser fan motor
Two layer epoxy/urethane applied to all exposed internal copper and metal in the in the condenser section
An impregnated polyurethane on the condenser coil
The Coat-all package includes all of the above but also includes an impregnated polyurethane on the evaporator coil and the two layer epoxy/urethane on all exterior and interior components and sheet metal. (Note: the internal sheet metal which is insulated and the internal control box are not coated).
Dirty Filter Indicator
A diaphragm type of indicator measures the air pressure on either side of the lter and when the pressure drops below the set point, a red LED is illuminated. The set point is adjustable.
Protective Coil Coatings
Either the condenser or evaporator coil can be coated. For harsh conditions, e.g., power plants, paper mills
or sites were the unit will be exposed to salt water, the condenser coil should be coated. Note: Cooling capacity may be reduced by up to 5% on units with coated coils.
Cabinet Color and Material
The air conditioners are available in two standard cabinet colors -the standard grey with beige as an option. The standard cabinet’s sides, top and front panels are constructed of 16 gauge painted steel. Contact your ICE representative for color chips, custom colors and 316 stainless steel cabinets.

1.8 Electrical Operation
The compressor and condenser fan are energized with a contactor controlled by a 24 VAC pilot signal.
Some compressors incorporate an internal PTC crankcase heater that functions as long as primary power is available. The heater drives liquid refrigerant from the crankcase and prevents loss of lubrication caused by oil dilution. Power must be applied to the unit for 24 hours before starting the compressor.
The condenser (outside fan) motor is energized by the same contactor.
The indoor evaporator fan motor is controlled by the fan purge on the electronic control board.

Ducting
Extensions should be cut ush with the inside wall for applications without duct work.
Applications using duct work should be designed and installed in accordance with all applicable safety codes and standards. ICE strongly recommends referring to the current edition of the National Fire Protection Association Standards 90A and 90B before designing and installing duct work. The duct system must be engineered to insure sufcient air ow through the unit to prevent over-heating of the heater element. This includes proper supply duct sizing, sufcient quantity of supply registers, adequate return and lter area. Ductwork must be of correct material and must be properly insulated. Duct work must be constructed of galvanized steel with a minimum thickness of .019 inches for the rst 3 feet (1 meter). Ductwork must be rmly attached, secured and sealed to prevent air leakage. Do not use duct liner on inside of supply duct within 4 feet (122cm) of the unit.
Galvanized metal duct extensions should be used to simplify connections to duct work and grilles. Use fabric boots to prevent the transmission of vibration through the duct system. The fabric must be U.L. rated to a minimum of 197°F (92°C).
Minimum Airow Requirements
The duct system must be engineered to assure sufcient air ow through the unit even under adverse conditions such as dirty lters, etc.
2.5 Top Flange Installation (See Figure 2)
1. All models have built-in side mounting anges.
2. Attach the top ange to the top of the air conditioner. The holes in the top of the air condtioner have been predrilled. Remove the 4 screws in these holes and use these screws to attach the top ange
to the air conditioner.

2.6 Installing the Lifting Brackets
The ECU90/120/150 have lifting brackets that can be installed on the top of the side panels. These brackets allow the unit to be picked up thru lifting eyes in the brackets.The lifting brackets are shipped attached to the back panel of the ECU. Attach the brackets to the left and right side panels as shown in Figure 2. The 4 screws for attaching the brackets are shipped in the holes at the top of the side panels.
When attaching the brackets, make sure the top of the bracket is angled towards the center of the ECU.
2.7 Mounting The Unit
1. For wiring into the back of unit, locate the lower of the two knockouts on the wall side of the unit. Drill a one inch hole in the shelter wall to match this opening. Allow sufcient clearance to run 3/4" conduit through the hole and to the unit.
2. Lift the unit into position using an appropriate and safe lifting device.
3. Make sure that the duct anges are properly aligned with the wall opening. Adjust as necessary.
4. Note the holes in each side ange. Using the holes for guides, drill holes through the wall with a drill bit. Insert the bolts through the anges. Install nuts and washers on the inside of the shelter.
Tighten the bolts to secure the unit.
5. Apply a bead of silicone where the side and top anges contact the exterior wall.
6. On the inside of the shelter, install the wall sleeves in the supply and return air openings. The sleeves may be trimmed to t ush with the inside wall.
7. Check the t of each sleeve to its mating ange for possible air leaks. Apply silicone sealer to close
any gaps. Install the air return and supply grilles.

2.8 Electrical Connections
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could result in serious injury, death, and/or property damage.
Turn off electrical power at fuse box or service panel BEFORE making any electrical connections and ensure a proper ground connection is made before connecting line voltage.
Important
All electrical work must meet the requirements of local codes and ordinances. Work should be
done only by qualied persons.
The units may incorporate an internal crankcase heater for compressor protection. The crankcase
heater must be energized for at least 24 hours prior to starting the compressor.
Scroll compressors, like several other types of compressors, will only compress in one rotational direction. The direction of rotation is not an issue with single-phase compressors since they will always start and run in the proper direction. However, three phase compressors will rotate in either direction depending upon phasing of power. Since there is a 50-50 chance of connecting power in such a way as to cause rotation in the reverse direction, it is imperative to conrm that the compressor is rotating in the proper direction at the initial eld start-up of the system. Verication of proper rotation is made by observing
17
ECU 04/2015 rev.3
Page 18
that the suction pressure drops and the discharge pressure rises when the compressor is energized. An alternate method of verication for self contained system with small critical refrigerant charges, where
the installation of gauges may be objectionable, can be made by monitoring the temperature of the refrigerant lines at the compressor. The temperature should rise on the discharge line while the suction
line temperature decreases. Reverse rotation also results in a substantially reduced current draw when
compared to tabulated values.
There is no negative impact on durability caused by operating three phase compressors in the reversed
direction for a short duration of time, usually dened as less than one hour. However, after several
minutes of operation the compressor's internal protector will trip. The compressor will then cycle on
the protector until the phasing is corrected. Reverse operation for longer than one hour may have a
negative impact on the bearings.
To change the rotation, turn off power to the unit and reverse L1 & L2 at the disconnect in the air
conditioner.
The middle front panel provides access to the electrical/control box and to the lters. This panel has hinges on the left and right hand side. This panel should ONLY be opened by using the two hinges on the left
side OR the two hinges on the right side. NEVER OPEN ALL FOUR HINGES SIMULTANEOUSLY.
If all four hinges are opened simultaneously, the front panel will drop and may cause serious injury and damage the panel.
DANGER
NEVER open all four hinges simultaneously. The panel should ONLY be opened by using the two hinges on the left side OR the two hinges on the right side.
High Voltage Wiring
The power supply should have the proper voltage, phase, and ampacity for the selected model.
1. Refer to the electrical data on the data sticker on the unit for eld wiring requirements of the unit. Size the incoming power supply lines and the fuse(s) or HACR breaker(s) according to requirements described in the National Electric Code. Run the power conductors through the knockouts on the side or back of the unit. Use appropriate conduit and strain reliefs.
CAUTION
Note: Power supply service must be within allowable range (+10% - 5%) of rated voltage stamped on the unit rating plate. To operate nominal 230/208V unit at 208V, change the transformer line tap from 240V to 208V following the instruction on wiring label in unit.
2. Connect the wires to the input side of the internal breaker or terminal block L1, L2, & L3 for three-
phase models.
3. Install the ground wire on the ground lug.
4. For units designed for operation on 208/230V, 60Hz power supply, the transformer is factory wired for a 230V power supply. For a 208V power supply, remove the orange lead from the transformer
and connect the red lead. Insulate the orange lead.
CAUTION
The external breaker(s) that provide power to the air conditioner must be sized per the maximum Fuse Size (MFS) shown on the Unit's data label.
18
ECU 04/2015 rev.3
Page 19
Dual Unit Phasing
For applications where one controller operates two units, e.g., the CommStat 4.
1. Wire each unit as described in steps 1 through 4 above.
2. Test for proper phasing as follows:
A. Power up the units. B. Using an AC volt meter set to the 300 volt scale, measure voltage between terminal L1 on the
compressor contactor of unit #1 and terminal L1 on the compressor contactor of unit #2 If
voltage is present, units are wired out of phase and must be rewired.
C. If units are not in phase, turn off power and reverse the eld power leads connected to the
internal circuit breaker on one of the units only.
D. Restore power and retest the phase (step B). When the voltage reads "0", the units are in phase.
E. Turn off power and proceed.
Low Voltage Wiring IMPORTANT. The following instructions are generic wiring instructions and may not be applicable
for air conditioners with various options. Always refer to the wiring diagram in the air conditioner for
the proper method to wire your unit.
1. On single units, pull the low voltage wiring (e.g., 18 gauge 4-conductor Class 2 thermostat wire) from the air conditioners into the thermostat / subbase assembly. See Figure 4a for connections to
various thermostats.
2. Mount the thermostat on the wall of the shelter. The thermostat should be located so that the supply air from the unit does NOT blow directly on to the thermostat. Connect the thermostat to the terminal block in the air conditioner as shown in Figure 6a.
3. On dual units, refer to either the ICE CommStat 3 or CommStat 4 Controller Specication sheet. Wire the two air conditioners to the Lead/Lag Controller, according to the wiring diagram on the specication sheet.
Remote Signalling:
Terminals 5 & 7(N.O.) and 6 & 7 (N.C.) on the air conditioners terminal board are dry
contacts which can be used for remote signalling in the event of a/c cutoff on low or high pressure limit.
Continuous fan operation: For continuous indoor fan operation on single units, install a jumper between
terminals 8 and 3.
CommStat 3 Controller (See Figure 4b) The CommStat 3 Controller by ICE is a solid state control package designed to operate a fully
or partially redundant air conditioning system for a telecommunication cabinet or shelter. The
CommStat 3 Controller is factory programmed with standard industry set points to facilitate installation. If desired, each of the set points can be quickly and easily changed in the eld by the installer. See CommStat 3 Product Data Sheet for installation and programming instructions.
CommStat 4 Lead /Lag Controller
Please refer to the Product Data sheet for the CommStat 4 controller for complete instructions
on installing and programming this controller.

3.1 Check-Out of Cooling Cycle
Important: Be sure that the crankcase heater (if used) has been energized for at least 24 hours before starting the unit(s). Double-check all electrical connections before applying power. All air conditioners with scroll compressors running on 3Ø power must be checked for proper rotation during the initial start-up. Please refer to Section 2.8 for determining if the 3Ø compressors are rotating correctly. Incorrect rotation can damage the compressor and is not covered by the warranty
Procedure:
1. Set the cooling set point temperature on the wall thermostat to a point higher than the ambient tem- perature. Set the heating set point temperature to a temperature that is lower than the ambient.
2. Set the thermostat system switch in the AUTO position. Nothing should operate at this time.
3. Set the time delay in the control box to three minutes. See Section 1.6.
4. Slowly lower the thermostat's cooling set point temperature until the switch closes. The indoor fan
should operate.
Once the indoor fan turns on, allow approximately three minutes for the compressor to start.
5. To stop cooling, slowly raise the thermostat cooling set point to a temperature higher than the
ambient.
Chapter 3 Start-Up
If the unit fails to operate, refer to the troubleshooting information in Chapter 4.
Follow the same procedure for additional units.
NOTE: The fan purge allows the indoor fan to run for approximately 90 seconds after the compressor is off. This operation provides a small improvement in system rated efciency.
3.2 Check-Out of Heating Cycle
Procedure: (Applies only to units with resistance elements)
1. Raise the heating set point temperature to a setting which is higher than the ambient temperature.
The fan and electric heat should immediately cycle on.
2. Move the system switch to the "OFF" position. All functions should stop.

A comprehensive understanding of the operation of the air conditioner is a prerequisite to troubleshoot­ing. Please read the Chapter 1 for basic information about the unit.
Our air conditioners are thoroughly tested before they are shipped from the factory. Of course, it is
possible that a defect may escape undetected, or damage may have occurred during transportation.
However, the great majority of problems result from installation errors.
If you experience difculties with the unit, please review the installation steps in Chapter 2.
Much time can be saved by taking a thoughtful and orderly approach to troubleshooting. Start with a visual check - are there loose wires, crimped tubing, missing parts, etc? Begin deeper analysis only after making this initial inspection.
Chapter 4 Troubleshooting
DANGER
The troubleshooting information in this manual is basic. The troubleshooting section contains problem/ solution charts for general problems, followed by a compressor section.
Not every problem can be anticipated. If you discover a problem that is not covered in this manual, we
would be very grateful if you would bring it to the attention of our service department for incorporation in future revisions.
As always, please exercise caution and good judgement when servicing the air conditioner. Use only safe and proven service techniques. Use refrigeration goggles when servicing the refrigeration circuit.

4.3 Compressor
Troubleshooting
NOTE: It is important to rule out other component failures before condemning the compressor.
The following electrical tests will aid diagnosis:
1. Start-Up Voltage: Measure the voltage at the compressor contactor during start-up. The voltage must exceed the minimum shown in Table 5, section 2.2, or compressor failure is likely. A low
voltage condition must be corrected.
2. Running Amperage: Connect a clip-on type ammeter to the (common) lead to the compressor.
Turn on the supply voltage and energize the unit. The compressor will initially draw high amperage; it should soon drop to the RLA value or less. If the amperage stays high, check the motor winding
resistances.
NOTE: Feel the top of the compressor to see if it has overheated. If it is hot, the internal overload
may be open. You may have to wait several hours for it to reset.
3. Motor Winding Resistances: Using a digital volt-ohm meter (VOM), measure the resistance
across the compressor windings as shown below.
SINGLE PHASE
R
2
S
Resistance can be measured as shown above. Any deviation from above values could indicate a
defective compressor.
4. High Voltage/Insulation Test: Test internal leakage with a megoh meter. Attach one lead to the
compressor case on a bare metal tube and to each compressor terminal to test the motor windings.
A short circuit at high voltages indicates a motor defect. Do not do this test under vacuum.
5. On single phase models, check the capacitor by substitution.
4.4 Control Board Diagnosis
The control board (see section 1.6 for a complete description of the control board) has a red diagnostic LED which indicates the lockout fault. The control board will enter into and indicate lockout if either of the fault conditions (LPS or HPS) occur twice.
The contactor must be closed before the rst fault condition can be recognized by the control board. The contactor will be closed 3 minutes after the unit is energized and only if cooling is required. The rst fault condition will open the contactor and shutdown the unit. The contactor on the unit that has
the fault condition must be closed before the second fault condition can be recognized by the control
board. The contactor on the unit with the fault condition will close after 3 minutes if the unit is still calling for cooling and if the fault condition no longer exists. If you get a second fault condition, the contactor will open and shutdown the unit. The “red” led will have one blink if the high pressure switch has opened twice and will have two blinks if the low pressure switch has opened twice. The unit must be in the cooling mode (compressor contactor Closed) before a fault condition can occur.

5.1 Scheduled Maintenance
Industrial Climate Engineering strongly recommends that the air conditioner be serviced a minimum
of twice a year – once prior to the heating season and once prior to the cooling season. At this time the lters, evaporator coil, condenser coil, the cabinet, and condensate drains should be serviced as described below. Also at this time, the air conditioner should be operated in the cooling and heating cycles as described in Chapter 3, Start-Up. In addition to this seasonal check-out, the air conditioner
should be maintained as follows:
Air Filter
Replace the air lter whenever it is visibly dirty. Never operate the unit without the lter in place. De­pending upon the conguration of your unit, access to the lter can be either from the outside through
the hinged door or from the return grille on the inside of the building.
Chapter 5 Maintenance
DANGER
Evaporator
If the evaporator becomes clogged or dirty, it may be cleaned by careful vacuuming or with a com­mercial evaporator cleaning spray. DO NOT use a solvent containing bleach, acetone, or ammable substances. Turn off power before cleaning. Be careful not to wet any of the electrical components. Be sure the unit has dried before restarting.
Condenser
Periodically inspect the outdoor condenser coil and the cabinet air reliefs for dirt or obstructions. Remove foreign objects such as leaves, paper, etc.
If the condenser coil is dirty, it may be washed off with a commercial solvent intended for this purpose.
TURN OFF POWER BEFORE CLEANING! Be sure that all electrical components are thoroughly dry before restoring power. Use a n comb of the correct spacing to straighten mashed or bent ns.
Cabinet
The cabinet may be cleaned with a sponge and warm, soapy water or a mild detergent. Do not use
bleach, abrasive chemicals or harmful solvents.
Drains
The condensate is drained from the condensate pan through two drains – one on the left side of the pan and the other on the right side. The condensate lines drain to the outside at the bottom of the unit through the base pan. Each of the drain lines is looped to form a trap.
Regularly check each drain line to make sure it is not obstructed. If a commercial drain solvent is used, ush out the drain pan and system with sufcient water to remove the solvent. Some solvents can cause
the drain pan to corrode.
Lubrication
Oiling of the condenser fan motor or the evaporator blower motor is not recommended.
