General Information

Receiving and Handling

1 Carefully check items against the bills of lading to verify
all crates and cartons were received. Carefully inspect all units for damage when received. Report visible and concealed damage immediately to the carrier and a file a claim for damage.
2 Destiny air handler units are thoroughly inspected before
leaving the factory. Install units carefully to prevent damage.
3 Leave enough space around the unit for proper
maintenance, filter removal, lubrication, belt adjustment, and removal of coils, if necessary.
4 Use flexible connections on the inlet and outlet duct
connections of the unit.
5 For 002 - 010 sized ceiling hung units, spring isolation of
the cabinet is recommended.
6 All fans are dynamically balanced before leaving the
factory. Carefully inspect fans for rough handling that can cause misalignment or a damaged shaft.
7 Adequately pitch and trap drain line from drain pan
connection.

Storing the Unit

Store unit on a level surface. If air handling units are to be stored for any period of time, it is important to rotate the fan wheel (quarterly, as a minimum) to prevent permanent distortion of drive components. Keep the fan bearings lubricated. Grease may settle in the lower part of the bearing, which may lead to oxidation on the upper portion of the bearing surface.
Store units indoors in a clean, dry environment on a level surface. Moisture, debris, and minerals can cause permanent damage to the cabinet and components. Do not allow coverings to trap moisture on the galvanized surface.

Installation Guidelines

Piping and Coils

Follow applicable piping design, sizing, and installation information presented in ASHRAE Handbooks in the design and installation of piping. Observe all local codes and industry standards. Do not apply undue stress at the connection to the coil headers. Support pipe work independently of the coils.

Water Cooling Coils

Water cooling coil guidelines are listed below. Refer to Figure 11.
1 Water supply, water return, drain, and vent connections
extend through the end panel of the coil section. All connections are labeled on the end panel.
2 Water supply and water return connections are copper
sweat on units 002 through 010 and male NPT iron pipe on units 015 through 030.
3 When installing couplings, do not apply undue stress to the
connection extending through unit panel. Use a backup pipe wrench to avoid breaking the weld between coil connection and header.
4 Follow recommendations of the control manufacturer
regarding types, sizing, and installation of controls.

Direct Expansion Coils

Direct expansion coil connection guidelines are listed below. Refer to Figure 12.
1 The coil distributor and suction connection extend through
the end panel of the coil section.
2 Check nozzle in distributor for proper tonnage. 3 The thermostat expansion valve must be an external
equalizer tube type. Connect the equalizer tube provided on the coil (3/16" for units 002 to 010, and 1/4" for units 015 to 030) to the connection on the expansion valve.
4 Use care when piping up the system, making sure all joints
are tight and all lines are dry and free of foreign material. For typical refrigerant piping, see the condensing unit product manual.

Steam Coils

Steam coil connection guidelines are listed below. Refer to Figure 13.
1 All steam coils in units are pitched toward the return
connection.
2 Steam supply and steam return connections are typically
male NPT iron pipe and are labeled on the end panel of coil section. Connections extend through coil section end panel.
3 When installing couplings, do not apply undue stress to the
connection extending through unit panel. Use a backup pipe wrench to avoid breaking the weld between coil connection and header.
4 Support piping independently of coils and provide adequate
piping flexibility. Stresses resulting from expansion of closely coupled piping can cause serious damage.
5 Do not reduce pipe size at the coil return connection. Carry
return connection size through the dirt pocket, making the reduction at the branch leading to the trap.
6 Install vacuum breakers on all applications to prevent
retaining condensate in the coil. Generally, connect the vacuum breaker between the coil inlet and the return main. Open the vacuum breaker to the atmosphere and design the trap to allow venting of large quantities of air.
7 Do not drip supply mains through the coil. 8 Do not attempt to lift condensate when using modulating or
on/off control.
9 Size traps in accordance with manufacturers’
recommendations. Be certain the required pressure differential will always be available. Do not undersize.
12 McQuay IM 782-2
Page 13
10
Use float and thermostatic or bucket traps with low pressure steam. On high pressure steam, use bucket traps. Use thermostatic traps only for air venting.
11 Use bucket traps only with on/off control. 12 Locate traps at least 12 inches below the coil return
connection.
13 If the coils are arranged for series airflow, a separate
control is required on each bank or coil in the direction of airflow.
14 Do not use modulating steam valves on high pressure
systems.
15 Size modulating valves sized properly. Do not undersize. 16 For freezing conditions or entering air temperatures below
35°F (1.6°C):
a Supply 5 psi steam to coils at all times. b Thoroughly mix fresh air and return air before it enters
the coil. Locate temperature control elements properly to obtain true air mixture temperatures.
c As additional protection against freeze-up, install the
trap sufficiently below the coil to provide an adequate hydrostatic head for removal of condensate during an interruption in the steam pressure. Estimate three feet for each 1 psi of trap differential required.
d On startup, admit steam to coil ten minutes before
admitting outdoor air.
e Close fresh air dampers if steam supply pressure falls
below minimum specified.
Installation Guidelines
2 Water supply and water return connections are copper
sweat on units 002 through 010 and male NPT iron pipe on units 015 through 030.
3 When installing couplings, do not apply undue stress to the
connection extending through unit panel. Use a backup pipe wrench to avoid breaking the weld between coil connection and header.
4 Follow recommendations of the control manufacturer
regarding types, sizes, and installation of controls.
5 Hot water coils are not recommended for use with entering
air below 40°F.
6 If fresh air and return air are to be heated by a hot water
coil, take care in the design of the system to provide thorough mixing before air enters the coil.

Drain Pan Traps

Destiny air handlers have a drain pan connection on both sides of the unit. Drain connections can be made on either side or both sides. Drain lines and traps should run full size from the drain pan connection. Drain pans should have traps to allow condensate from coils to drain freely. The trap depth and distance between the trap outlet and the drain pan outlet should be twice the static pressure in the drain pan section under normal operation for the trap to remain sealed. See Figure 16.
A secondary drain connection on the drain pan is standard on all Destiny units. Secondary drain connections are required in some applications as a visual means of identifying clogged primary drain lines.

The spring isolators under the four corners of the fan and motor assembly have been factory adjusted while the fan was not running. See Table 1. With the unit operating at normal cfm and static pressure, the isolators should all be at the same height opening. If adjustments are required, loosen the 5/16" capscrew on top of the isolator and turn the adjusting bolt to lower or raise the fan and motor base. Retighten the capscrew when adjustments are completed. See Figure 18 below.
When seismic snubbers and/or thrust restraints are provided, no additional adjustments are required.
Note – The door panels on some applications have a close
clearance over the drain pipes. Extend the drain fitting with a coupling if necessary for door clearance.

Internal Isolation Assembly Adjustment

Units have internally isolated fan and motor assemblies that are secured with brackets for shipment.

Before Operating the Unit

Remove the shipping bracket and bolts and discard. The shipping brackets located on the opposite drive side of the unit are difficult to access from the drive side of the unit. Either remove them before the unit is assembled, or remove the panel on the opposite drive side to gain access.

Periodic Service and Maintenance

1 Check all moving parts for wear every six months. 2 Check bearing collar, sheave, and wheel hub setscrews,
sheave capscrews, and bearing hold-down bolts for tightness every six months.

Ball Bearing Lubrication

1 Motor bearings—All ball bearings are prelubricated and do
not require additional grease during installation. However, periodic cleaning out and renewal of grease is necessary. Exercise extreme care when cleaning to prevent foreign matter from entering the bearing. It is also important to avoid over greasing. Only use a high grade, clean mineral grease with the following characteristics.
a Melting point preferably over 302°F (150°C). b Does not separate by oil and soap under operating and
storage conditions.
c Free of abrasive matter, acid, alkali, and moisture.
Specific greasing instructions are located on a label attached to the fan section door.
2 Fan shaft bearings—All ball bearings are prelubricated and
do not require additional grease during installation. Periodic greasing is necessary. Bearings are accessible in the fan section. A grease fitting is located on each side of the fan shaft. Do not over lubricate. Wipe off any excess grease to prevent overheating. The lubrication interval varies with the period of operation and temperature of the ambient air. Use the guidelines in the table below:

Upon completion of the air balance, replace the variable pitched motor sheave with a properly sized, fixed sheave. A matching fixed sheave provides longer belt and bearing life and vibration-free operation. Initially, it is best to have a variable pitched motor sheave for the purpose of air balancing. Once the balance is achieved, fixed sheaves maintain balancing and alignment more effectively. Replace the adjustable sheaves with fixed sheaves.
With the electrical power disconnected, locked and tagged out, measure the diameter of the V-belt outer surface where it passes around the sheave (pitch diameter). Calculate fan speed from the motor nameplate rpm.

Fan Drive Belt Adjustment

General Rules of Tensioning

1 The ideal tension is the lowest tension at which the belt
does not slip under peak load conditions.
2 Check tension frequently during the first 24 to 48 hours of
operation.
3 Over tensioning shortens belt and bearing life. 4 Keep belts free from foreign material, which may cause
slippage.
5 Make V-drive inspection on a periodic basis. Adjust
tension if the belt is slipping. Do not apply belt dressing. This may damage the belt and cause early failure.

Tension Measurement Procedure

1 Measure the belt span. See Figure 28. 2 Place belt tension checker squarely on one belt at the
center of the belt span. Apply force to the checker, perpendicular to the belt span, until the belt deflection equals belt span distance divided by 64. Determine force applied while in this position.
3 Compare this force to the values in Table 9 on page 27. 4
Adjust to the minimum value. If the belts slip, add tension.

WARNING
Moving belt and fan can cause severe personal injury or death. During installation and filter maintenance:
Lock and tag out fans to prevent accidental start up.
Do not enter the filter compartment until the fan is
completely stopped.
Use approved equipment for reaching filters located above
normal reach. Do not step on filter frames or unit components.
Floor surfaces must be dry and free of oil or grease.
AVERTISSEMENT
Pendant l’installation et où l’entretien des filtres, une courroie en mouvement ou un ventilateur en opération peuvent causer des blessures graves où même causer la mort.
Verouiller les démarreurs des ventilateurs et afficher un
avis de mise-en-garde afin de prévenir tout accident ou démarrage.
Attendre que le ventilateur soit complètement arrêté avant
d’entrer dans l’unité.
Utiliser seulement des équipements approuvé pour joindre
les bancs de filtres; ne pas mettre soit sur les cadres des filtres ou même sur toutes composantes de l’unité.
La surface des planchers doit être sec et libre de toute
trace d’huile et où de graisse.

Service and Maintenance

Coil Maintenance

CAUTION
SHARP EDGES AND COIL SURFACES are a potential injury hazard. Avoid contact with them.
ATTENTION
Les bords tranchants et les surfaces des bobines sont un risque de blessure. Ne les touchez pas.
1 For maximum performance, the coil must be clean. Check
once a year under normal operating conditions and brush or vacuum clean if necessary. Use a chemical coil cleaner on multiple row coils. Read and follow the chemical cleaner’s instructions since some cleaners may contain harsh chemicals. Take care not to damage fins while cleaning.
2 Drain pans in any air conditioning unit may have some
moisture. Algae and other organisms can grow due to airborne spores and bacteria. Clean periodically to prevent build-up from plugging the drain and causing the drain pan to overflow. Keep drain pans clean to prevent the spread of disease. Cleaning should be performed by qualified personnel.
3 Dirt and lint can clog the condensate drain, especially with
dirty filters. Inspect twice a year to help avoid overflow.
WARNING
Clean drain pan regularly so mold does not develop.
If fan replacement is required, the entire fan assembly can be pulled out the side of the cabinet. The fan assembly includes the fan housing, the bearing support, and the fan base.
1 To remove the fan assembly, remove the side panels
(follow instructions for side panel removal).
2 Disconnect the neoprene bulkhead seal that is attached to
the fan discharge. Then disconnect the fan sled from each of the corner mounts and pull the entire assembly out the side of the unit.
3 Loosen the fan bearings and pull out the shaft. Disconnect
the fan housing from the fan sled and bearing support by removing the attaching bolts.
4 Replace the new fan, reconnect the shaft and bearings and
put the fan assembly in the cabinet. Replace panels and fasteners.

Coil Removal and Replacement

Before removing the coil, disconnect all piping.
1 Remove exterior panels from both sides of the coil section.
Remove screws that secure the top of the leaving coil face to the upper track on the inside top of the unit.
2 Lift drain pan condensate connection above the unit frame
flange and slide drain pan, coil(s), and baffles out of unit.
3 Slide the coil, blockoffs, and drain pan assembly back into
unit the same way it was removed. Check the installation for an airtight fit.
4 Reinstall screws that secure the top of the leaving coil face
to the upper track on the inside top of the unit.
