Unit Installation
Location
These evaporator blowers are not designed for outdoor
installation. They must be located inside a building structure,
either inside or outside the conditioned space where they are
protected from rain and other 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.
Rigging
Care must be taken when moving the unit. Do not remove 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 4 for unit weights.

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.
• Include a vapor barrier around the outside to prevent the
absorption of moisture.
• Be no less than 2 inches thick with a weatherproof coating
when applied to ducts exposed to outdoor conditions.
Supply Air Ducts
See Figure 5 for suggested method of connecting supply air
ductwork. Non-flammable material collars should be used to
minimize the transmission of noise and/or vibration.

Drain Connections
All drain lines MUST be trapped and located so they will not be
exposed to freezing temperatures.
All evaporator blower units have a 3/4” PVC condensate stub at
the end of a double sloped drain pan. The drain pan is
removable and reversible, It can be unscrewed and slid out
from one side of the evaporator section and installed in the
other end.
Drain piping should be constructed as shown in Figure 6. The
3-inch 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.

Line Sizing
When sizing refrigerant pipe for a split-system air conditioner,
check the following:
1.Suction line pressure drop due to friction.
2.Liquid line pressure drop due to friction.
3.Suction line velocity for oil return.
4.Liquid line pressure drop due to vertical rise. For certain
piping arrangements, different sizes of suction line pipe
may have to be used. The velocity of the refrigerant vapor
must always be great enough to carry the oil back to the
compressor.
5.Evaporator Located Below Condenser - On a split
system where the evaporator blower is located below the
condenser, the suction line must be sized for both pressure
drop and for oil return.
6.Condenser Located Below Evaporator - When the
condenser is located below the evaporator blower, the
liquid line must be designed for the pressure drop due to
both friction loss and vertical rise. If the pressure drop due
to vertical rise and friction exceeds 40 psi, some refrigerant
will flash before it reaches the thermal expansion valve.

This Split-System (Air Condensing / Heat Pump / Air
Handling) unit is one component of an entire system. As
such it requires specific application considerations with
regard to the rest of the system (air handling unit, duct
design, condensing unit, refrigerant piping and control
scheme).
Failure to properly apply this equipment with the rest of
the system may result in premature failure and/or
reduced performance / increased costs. Warranty
coverage specifically excludes failures due to improper
application and Unitary Products specifically disclaims
any liability resulting from improper application.
Please refer to the equipment Technical Guide,
Installation Manual and the piping applications bulletin
247077 or call the applications department for Unitary
Products @ 1-877-UPG-SERV for guidance.
1.Increases the liquid line pressure loss due to friction that in
turn causes further flashing.
2.Reduces the capacity of the refrigerant control device
which starves the evaporator.
3.Erodes the seat of the refrigerant control device.
4.Causes erratic control of the refrigerant entering the
evaporator.
Take Adequate Precautions
Many service problems can be avoided by taking adequate
precautions to provide an internally clean and dry system and
by using procedures and materials that conform to established
standards.
Use hard drawn copper tubing where no appreciable amount of
bending around pipes or other obstructions is necessary. If soft
copper is used, care should be taken to avoid sharp bends that
may cause a restriction. Pack fiberglass insulation and a
sealing material such as permagum around refrigerant lines
where they penetrate a wall to reduce vibrations and to retain
some flexibility.
Support all tubing at minimum intervals with suitable hangers,
brackets or clamps.
Braze all copper-to-copper joints with Silfos-5 or equivalent
brazing material. Do not use soft solder. Insulate all suction
lines with a minimum of 1/2" ARMAFLEX or equivalent. Liquid
lines exposed to direct sunlight and/or high temperatures must
also be insulated. Never solder suction and liquid lines
together. They can be taped together for convenience and

support purposes, but they must be completely insulated from
each other.
The liquid and suction service ports on the condenser section
permit leak testing, evacuation, and partial charging of the field
piping and the evaporator without disturbing refrigerant stored
in the condenser during initial installation.
Before beginning installation of the main lines, be sure that the
evaporator section has not developed a leak in transit. Check
pressure at the Schrader valve located on the header of each
coil. If pressure still exists in the system, it can be assumed to
be leak free. If pressure DOES NOT exist the section will need
to be repaired before evacuation and charging is performed.
A filter-drier MUST be field-installed in the liquid line of every
system to prevent dirt and moisture from damaging the system.
Properly sized filter-driers are shipped with each condensing
section.
NOTE: Installing a filter-drier does not eliminate the need for
the proper evacuation of a system before it is charged.
A field-installed moisture indicating sight-glass should be
installed in the liquid line(s) between the filter-drier and the
evaporator coil. The moisture indicating sight-glass can be used
to check for excess moisture in the system or used as a visual
means to verify refrigerant charge.
Both condenser and evaporator sections have copper sealing
disks brazed over the end of liquid and suction connections.
The temperature required to make or break a brazed joint is
high enough to cause oxidation of the copper unless an inert
atmosphere is provided.
connections of the main lines. Repeat for the liquid line valve
body.
Never remove a cap from an access port unless the
valve is fully back-seated with its valve stem in the
maximum counter-clockwise position because the
refrigerant charge will be lost. Always use a refrigeration
valve wrench to open and close these service valves.
Connect the main liquid line to the liquid line connection on the
condenser section, while maintaining a flow of Nitrogen. Cool
the valve body and replace the Schraded valve stem on the
service port of the liquid line service valve.
Install 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.
Connect a low-pressure nitrogen source to the Schrader valve
located on the evaporator section coil headers. Drill a small
hole in the sealing disks, the flow of Nitrogen will prevent any
debris from entering the system. Unbraze both liquid and
suction sealing disks and prepare the joints for connections of
the main lines.
Connect the main liquid line to the liquid line connection on the
evaporator section, while maintaining a flow of Nitrogen.
NOTE: Dry Nitrogen should flow through the system at all
times when heat is being applied and until the joint has
cooled. The flow of Nitrogen will prevent oxidation of
the copper lines during installation.
Always drill a small hole in sealing disks before unbrazing to
prevent the pressure in the line from blowing them off.
NOTE: Solenoid and hot gas bypass valves (if used) should be
opened manually or electrically duri ng brazing or
evacuating.
NOTE: Schrader valves located on unit service valves should
have their stem removed during brazing to prevent
damage to the valve.

Expansion Valve Bulb Installation
Thermal expansion valve bulbs on the blower units are not
factory-installed in its final locati o n s ; Th ey are only temporarily
taped for shipment. The bulb for system one must be fastened
in a 4 o'clock and/or 8 o'clock position to the system one suction
line leaving the evaporator coil after piping connections are
made. Repeat the procedure for system two, locating the bulbs
in a 4 o'clock and/or 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
Install a power supply to meet the requirements listed in
Electric Data Table 6.
Provide a disconnect switch and fusing as required.
Install interconnecting control wiring between condensing
section, evaporator blower and room thermostat.
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’s operation.
The sequence of operation applies to the PC/PD and YC/YD

CFM Static Pressure and Power-Altitude and Temperature
Corrections
The information below should be used to assist in application of
product when being applied at altitudes at or exceeding 1000
feet above sea level.
The air flow rates listed in the standard blower performance
tables are based on standard air at sea level. As the altitude or
temperature increases, the density of air decreases. In order to
use the indoor blower tables for high altitude applications,
certain corrections are necessary.
A centrifugal fan is a "constant volume" device. This means
that, if the rpm remains constant, the CFM delivered is the
same regardless of the density of the air. However, since the air
at high altitude is less dense, less static pressure will be
generated and less power will be required than a similar
application at sea level. Air density correction factors are shown
in Table 7 and Figure 10.
The examples below will assist in determining the airflow
performance of the product at altitude.
Example 1: What are the corrected CFM, static pressure, and
BHP at an elevation of 5,000 ft. if the blower performance data
is 6,000 CFM, 1.5 IWC and 4.0 BHP?
Solution: At an elevation of 5,000 ft. the indoor blower will still
deliver 6,000 CFM if the rpm is unchanged. However, the
Altitude/Temperature Correction Factors table must be used to
determine the static pressure and BHP. Since no temperature
data is given, we will assume an air temperature of 70°F. The
table shows the correction factor to be 0.832.
Corrected static pressure = 1.5 x 0.832 = 1.248 IWC
Corrected BHP = 4.0 x 0.832 = 3.328
Example 2: A system, located at 5,000 feet of elevation, is to
deliver 6,000 CFM at a static pressure of 1.5". Use the unit
blower tables to select the blower speed and the BHP
requirement.
Solution: As in the example above, no temperature
information is given so 70°F is assumed.
The 1.5" static pressure given is at an elevation of 5,000 ft. The
first step is to convert this static pressure to equivalent sea level
conditions.
Sea level static pressure = 1.5 / .832 = 1.80"
Enter the blower table at 6000 sCFM and static pressure of
1.8". The rpm listed will be the same rpm needed at 5,000 ft.
Suppose that the corresponding BHP listed in the table is 3.2.
This value must be corrected for elevation.
BHP at 5,000 ft. = 3.2 x .832 = 2.66

Drive Selection
1.Determine Upflow or Horizontal supply duct Application.
2.Determine desired airflow.
3.Calculate or measure the amount of external static pressure.
4.Using the operating point, determined from steps 1, 2 & 3, locate this point on the appropriate supply air blower performance
table. (Linear interpolation may be necessary.)
5.Noting the RPM and BHP from step 4, locate the appropriate motor and/or drive on the RPM selection table.
6.Review the BHP compared to the motor options available. Select the appropriate motor and, or drive.
7.Review the RPM range for the motor options available. Select the appropriate drive if multiple drives are available for the
chosen motor.
8.Determine turns open to obtain the desired operation point.
Example
1.3250 CFM
2.1.4 iwg
3.Using the supply air blower performance table below, the following data point was located: 1100 RPM & 1.8 BHP.
4.Using the RPM selection table below, Model X is found.
5.1.8 BHP exceeds the maximum continuous BHP rating of the 1.5 HP motor. The 2 HP motor is required.
6.1100 RPM is within the range of the 2 HP drives.
7.Using the 2 HP motor and drive, 1 turn open will achieve 1128 RPM.
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 determined from the curves
shown in Figure 12.
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.

Procedure for adjusting belt tension:
1. Loosen four nuts (top and bottom) of the Belt Adjust/
Motor Mounting Bracket (A).
2. Loosen Lock Nut (C).
3. Adjust by turn Belt Tensioning Bolt (B).
4. Use belt tension checker to apply a perpendicular
force to one belt at the midpoint of the span as
shown. Deflection distance of 4mm (5/32”) is
obtained.
To determine the deflection distance from normal
position, use a straight edge from sheave to sheave
as reference line. The recommended deflection force
is as follows:
Tension new belts at the max. deflection force
recommended for the belt section. Check the belt
tension at least two times during the first 24 hours of
operation. Any retensioning should fall between the
min. and max. deflection force values.
5. After adjusting re-tighten nuts (A) and Lock Nut (C).

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 the mark has not separated, the belts are
traveling at the same speed.
Twin groove blower motor pulleys should be installed with the
shaft set screw (A) towards the motor (see Figure 14).

Sequence of Operation
Continuous Blower
By setting the room thermostat to "ON," the low voltage control
circuit from the "R" to "G" is completed and the supply air
blower will operate continuously.
Intermittent Blower
With the room thermostat fan switch set to "AUTO" and the
system switch set to either the "AUTO" or "HEAT" settings, the
blower is energized whenever a cooling or heating operation is
requested. The blower is energized after any specified delay
associated with the operation.
Cooling Sequence of Operation
Single Stage Indoor Unit Matched with a Single Stage
Condensing Unit
When the thermostat calls for cooling, the low voltage control
circuit from "R" to "Y1" and "G" is completed. The Simplicity™
control board activates cooling by energizing the compressor
and condenser fans of the condensing unit. After completing
the specified fan on delay for cooling , th e Si mpl i ci ty™ co ntrol
board will energize the indoor blower motor.
Two Stage Indoor Units Matched with a Two Stage
Condensing Unit
When the thermostat calls for the first stage of cooling, the low
voltage control circuits from "R" to "Y1", "G1" and "S1" is
completed. The Simplicity™ control board activates the first
stage of cooling by energizing the System #1 liquid line
solenoid of the indoor unit and the System #1 compressor and
condenser fans of the condensing unit. After completing the
specified fan on delay for cooling, the Simplicity™ control board
will energize the indoor blower motor (Note: Both Terminals G1
and G2 need to be jumped together).
When the thermostat calls for the second stage of cooling, the
low-voltage control circuit from "R" to "Y2" and "S2" is
completed. The Simplicity™ control board activates the second
stage of cooling by energizing System #2 liquid line solenoid of
the indoor unit and the System #2 compressor and condenser
fans of the condensing unit.
If there is an initial call for both stages of cooling, the
Simplicity™ control board will delay energizing compressor #2
by 30 seconds in order to avoid an excessive power rush.
The jumper between G1 and G2 must be removed on the T2
terminal block. Both G1 and G2 will provide 24V signals to
operate their respective indoor fan motors.
When a thermostat calls for cooling, the Simplicity™ control
board energizes the appropriate compressor and condenser
fans. Fan #1 will start immediately upon the call for cooling.
However, the control circuit for fan #2 is equipped with a fan
cycling switch that operates the fan in the 180-280 psig head
pressure range.
When the second thermostat calls for cooling, the Simplicity™
control board energizes the appropriate compressor and
condenser fans. Fan #3 will start immediately upon the call for
cooling. However, the control circuit for fan #4 is equipped with
a fan cycling switch that operates the fan in the 180-280 psig
head pressure range.
Once a call for cooling has been satisfied, the Simplicity™
control board will de-energize the respective Y1 or Y2 signal. If
the associated compressor has satisfied its minimum run time,
it is de-energized along the system's condenser fans. If both
calls for cooling have been satisfied, the Simplicity™ control
board will de-energize the other signal. If the associated
compressor has satisfied its minimum run time, it and its
associated condenser fans are de-energized. Otherwise, the
unit operates each compressor and condenser fans until the
ASCD has elapsed.
The appropriate blower is stopped following the completion of
the fan off-delay cycle.
Maintenance
Filters must be cleaned or replaced as often as necessary to
assure good airflow and filtering action.
To remove filters through the side of the unit, remove the solid
side panel on the piping end.
To remove the filters from the front of the unit, open access
panel. The filters can be lifted out through the access panel.
The drain pan should be inspected regularly to assure proper
drainage.
Blower bearings and motor bearings are permanently
lubricated.
Two Single Stage Indoor Units Matche d with a Two Stage
Condensing Unit
Two appropriately sized indoor units can operate with a single,
4-pipe condensing unit. Each indoor unit must be controlled by
a single-stage thermostat. One thermostat will connect to Y1 on
the condensing unit Simplicity™ control board and the other
thermostat will connect to Y2.
