design and construction at anytime without notice.
Checking for Damage
Upon receipt of the equipment, check carton for visible
damage. Make a notation on the shipper’s delivery ticket
before signing. If there is any evidence of rough handling, the
cartons should be opened at once to check for concealed
damage. If any damage is found, notify the carrier within 48
hours to establish your claim, and request their inspection
and a report. The Warranty Claims Department should then
be contacted.
Do not stand or transport the machines on end. For storing,
each carton is marked with “up” arrows.
In the event that elevator transfer makes upended
positioning unavoidable, absolutely insure that the machine
is in the normal upright position for at least 24 hours
before operating.
Temporary storage at the jobsite must be indoors, completely
sheltered from rain, snow, etc. High or low temperatures
naturally associated with weather patterns will not harm the
conditioners. Excessively high temperatures of 140˚F (60˚C)
may deteriorate certain plastic materials and cause permanent
damage. In addition, the solid-state circuit boards may
experience operation problems.
Note: Care should be taken when handling this equipment.
Rough handling can create damage to internal electrical and
refrigeration components.
Installation
Installation and maintenance are to be performed by qualified personnel who are familiar with local codes and
regulations, and experienced with this type of equipment. Caution: Sharp edges and coil surfaces are a potential injury
hazard. Avoid contact with them.
General:
1. Units must be installed in accordance with all applicable codes.
2. To prevent damage, this equipment should not be
operated for supplementary heating and cooling during
the construction period.
3. Inspect the carton for any specific tagging numbers
indicated by McQuay International per a request from
the installing contractor. At this time, the voltage, capacity
and model should be checked against the plans.
4. Check the unit size against the plans to be sure that the
unit will be installed in the correct location.
5. Units should be kept in shipping carton until installed.
At the time the unit is to be placed in its final position –
and only then – should the carton be removed. Retain
the carton and cut away one side and bottom. Take the
remaining portion of the carton and place it over the
unit. This will insure the unit is protected from paint
spotting, dirt, dust and lint that can affect proper unit
operation, and will also prevent needless cleaning
adding to installation cost.
6. The installing contractor will find it beneficial to confer
with other contractors; i.e., plumbing, electrical, pipe
fitters, etc., before installing any conditioners.
7. Remove the front panel by removing a screw on each
side of the cabinet at the subbase.
8. All piping and electrical wiring should be flexible so
that vibrations are not transmitted to the building
structure. Ensure all electrical connections are in place
and tight.
9. Locate the unit in an area that allows easy removal or
accessibility for service personnel to perform maintenance and repair.
10. If units are placed on a concrete floor, it is recommended that the floor be free from all construction
debris that may add to the operating noise level of the
unit. It may be advisable to place a portion of rubber
matting under the unit to prevent distortion and/or
vibration.
Unit Location
1. Console water source heat pumps are designed to be
installed in a controlled environment.
2. All units are to be installed against a wall.
3. Each unit should be located on the architectural plans.
The supply, return, and condensation piping should be
located accordingly, making sure the piping will fit into
the confines of the subbase and cabinet.
Installing the Unit
1. Consult job blueprints for unit location. Clean area
where unit is to be installed, removing all construction
dirt and debris.
2. Remove unit from shipping carton and save the carton.
Remove the front panel by removing a screw on each
end of the cabinet. Lift the cabinet up, forward and off.
3. Each chassis is mounted to cabinet backwrap and
subbase assembly by six screws for shipment. Remove four screws, two on each side of the chassis at
the subbase.
4.Position cabinet backwrap and subbase against the
wall where unit is to be installed. Ensure adequate
room exists for piping and electrical connection in the
subbase by checking the connection end of the subbase.
5. Using a carpenter’s square and level, make sure unit is
level and that it is at a 90-degree angle with the wall
and floor. (Note: If the floor and wall are not at right
angles, it may be necessary to shim the subbase to
insure proper installation. McQuay International will not
accept responsibility for units that may need to be
shimmed. Poor or inadequate installation could create
noisy unit operation.)
6. The cabinet backwrap has slots on the back flange to
mount the assembly to the wall. It is the contractor’s
responsibility to select the correct fastener for each unit.
7. After securing the subbase and backwrap assembly in
place, insert the chassis if it has been removed. Next,
the electrical connection should be made.

Electrical Connections
Standard Electrical Connection
Each chassis comes with a junction box mounted on the
side of the chassis and contains the field electrical connection.
Note: If electrical wiring or conduit comes through the
floor, all wires or conduit should be sealed at this point. It
will prevent any condensation or water leakage that may
occur due to lack of preventive maintenance. Each unit has
an internal condensate trap but will require cleaning.
Note: We suggest wiring coming through the wall should
also be sealed to stop cold air infiltration through the wall
cavity which could affect unit thermostat operation.
Remove the junction box cover, selecting the proper
knockout and remove it. Install a strain relief and pass the
wires through the strain relief into the junction box making
the connection and reinstall the junction box cover.
Note: Check the local code concerning correct electrical connection.
Cord connected equipment comes with a box and appropriate
voltage receptacle. However, a disconnect switch and fuses
can also be provided in the box. As an option, the box
comes factory mounted on the backwrap and is ready to be
field wired to the incoming power. The box is mounted on
the same side as the piping.
It is the responsibility of the installing contractor to make
the proper electrical connection to the electrical box, using
the same method as described in the standard electrical
connection. See Figures 3 and 4.
Figure 3. Standard electrical connection – Junction box
All piping connections should be made using good plumbing
practices and in accordance with any and all local codes
that may apply. Note: It will be helpful to read the “Piping”
section on page eight.
Unit Piping Connection
Each heat pump is supplied with extended copper tubing on
the water-to-refrigerant coil and
connections are for both the supply and return water connections.
Note: Valves – Shut off Combination Balancing Valves,
Hoses – Supply Return, Condensate Drain Hose and 90
Elbows are all factory available as accessories, (to be
mounted in the field by others).
1
/2" (12.7mm) OD tubing. The
Shutoff/Balancing Valve
Each heat pump requires a shutoff valve on both the supply
and return lines for easy serviceability and removal if it
becomes necessary.
We suggest using our combination shutoff/balancing
valves installed in the field between the contractor’s piping
and the heat pump unit. The valve installed on the return line
acts as a balancing valve to adjust the proper water flow.
Each shutoff/balancing valve has
1
/2" FPT ⳯ 1/2" FPT
threaded connections.
Suggested Hose Kit Installation
Field installed piping can be brought up from the floor or
through the wall. Note: Make sure the pipes fit the confines
of the piping compartment of the heat pump unit. See Figure 5.
Attach the field installed combination shut/off balancing
valve to the building water supply and return piping. Next
add the female pipe adapter connection to unit supply and
return coil connection by sweating them in place using silver
solder.
Next, using the specified hose kit, screw the fixed end
into the shut-off/balancing valve. Remove the
from the other end of the hose. Insert the adapter into the
female fitting. Using two crescent wrenches, one to hold the pipe
connection and the second to tighten the adapter, insert the
swivel end of the hose on the adapter and tighten. This
completes the hose connection to standard heat pump equipment.
Adding Motorized & Valve Assemblies
All console water source heat pumps can be field installed
with a motorized valve. All valves are mounted on the return
o
line of each unit. All valve assemblies terminate with
1
/2"-NPT threaded connections and will also accommodate factory supplied hose kits. When installing the hose
kits on valve assemblies, use the same method as outlined
in “Suggested Hose Kit Installation” above.
Note: All plumbing connections are made the same way
whether or not the unit has valve packages. Whether or not
you utilize our hose kits and shutoff/balancing valve all
piping connections will have to conform with all local piping
and building codes. The ability to remove the unit in order to
perform repairs is imperative.
Condensate Hose Connection
Each unit is supplied with a 3/4" (19mm) I.D. clear vinyl
condensate hose internally trapped within the chassis. The
hose extends 14" (356mm) out of the chassis within the
piping compartment to reach the floor or the back wall.
Field condensate piping must enter within the confines of
the cabinet (back wall or floor) similar to the supply and
return piping. Slide the vinyl hose over the condensate pipe
and clamp it.

Piping
1.All units are recommended to be connected to supply
and return piping in a two-pipe reverse return configuration.
A reverse return system is inherently self-balancing and
requires only trim balancing where multiple quantities of
units with different flow and pressure drop characteristics
are connected to the same loop. A simple way to check
for proper water balance is to take a differential temperature
reading across the water connections when in the
cooling mode. To insure proper water flow, the differential
should be 10˚F to 14˚F (-5˚C to -8˚C).
A direct return system may also be made to work
acceptably, but proper water flow balancing is more
difficult to achieve and maintain.
2. The piping can be steel, copper or PVC, but must
comply with local codes.
3. Supply and return runouts are usually connected to the
unit by short lengths of high pressure flexible hose
which are sound attenuators for both unit operating
noise and hydraulic pumping noise. Note: When using
the flex hose connections you must add a 90
kit, for making the connection. This elbow is sweat on
one end – female 1/2" FPT on the other end. McQuay
Part No. 106066402. One end of the hose should have
a swivel fitting to facilitate removal for service. Hard
piping can also be brought directly to the unit, although it is not recommended since additional noise
o
elbow
may be generated. See Figure 5 for typical piping
setup.
4. Some flexible hose threaded fittings are supplied with
sealant compound. If not, apply Teflon tape to assure a
tight seal.
5. Supply and return shutoff valves are required at each
conditioner. The return valve is used for balancing and
should have a “memory stop” so that it can always be
closed off, but can only be re-opened to the proper
position for the flow required.
6. No unit should be connected to the supply and return
piping until the water system has been cleaned and
flushed completely. After the cleaning and flushing has
taken place, the initial connection should have all valves
wide open in preparation for water system flushing.
7. Condensate piping can be steel, copper, or PVC. Each
unit is supplied with a clear vinyl condensate hose.
8. Units are internally trapped. Copper or PVC condensate
lines can be used. A means of disconnection must be
furnished to facilitate chassis removal.
9. No point of the drain system may be above the drain
pan of any unit.
10. Automatic flow control devices must not be installed
prior to system cleaning and flushing.
11. A high point of the piping system must be vented.
12. Check local code for the need for electric fittings.
Cleaning and Flushing System
1.Prior to first operation of any conditioner, the water
circulating system must be cleaned and flushed of all
construction dirt and debris.
If the conditioners are equipped with water shutoff
valves, either electric or pressure operated, the supply
and return runouts must be connected together at each
conditioner location. This will prevent the introduction of
dirt into the unit. Additionally, pressure operated valves
only open when the compressor is operating.

2. The system should be filled at the city water makeup
connection with all air vents open. After filling, vents
should be closed.
The contractor should start main circulator with
pressure reducing valve makeup open. Vents should be
checked in sequence to bleed off any trapped air to
assure circulation through all components of the system.
Power to the heat rejector unit should be off, and
the supplementary heat control set at 80˚F (27˚C).
While circulating water, the contractor should
check and repair any leaks in the piping. Drains at the
lowest point(s) in the system should be opened for
initial flush and blowdown, making sure city water fill

valves are set to make up water at the same rate.
Check the pressure gauge at pump suction, and
manually adjust the makeup to hold the same positive
steady pressure, both before and after opening the
drain valves. Flush should continue for at least two
hours, or longer if required, to see clear, clean drain water.
3. Supplemental heater and circulator pump should be shut
off. All drains and vents should be opened to completely
drain down the system. Short circuited supply and return
runouts should now be connected to the conditioner
supply and return connections. Teflon tape is recommended versus pipe dope for pipe thread connections.
Use no sealers at the swivel flare connections of hoses.
4. Trisodium phosphate was formerly recommended as a
cleaning agent during flushing. However, many states
and localities ban the introduction of phosphates into
their sewage systems. The current recommendation is
to simply flush longer with 80˚F (27˚C) water.
5. Refill the system with clean water. Test and treat as
required to leave the water slightly alkaline (pH 7.5 to
8.5). The specified percentage of antifreeze may also
be added at this time. Use commercial grade anti-
freeze designed for HVAC systems only. Do not use
automotive grade antifreeze.
6. Set the system control and alarm panel heat add
setpoint to 70˚F (21˚C) and heat rejection setpoint to
85˚F (29˚C). Supply power to all motors and start the
circulating pumps. After full flow has been established
through all components, including the heat rejector
(regardless of season), and air vented and loop
temperatures stabilized, each of the conditioners will
be ready for check, test, and start-up and for air and
water balancing.
7. It is not McQuay International’s policy to make recommendations on water treatment. The general contractor
or owner should contact a local water treatment company
regarding water treatment. However, this topic is critical
and care should be taken to make sure it is done properly
to prevent problems related to flow. A fouled closed loop
water system will lead to premature component failure.

Operating Limits
Environment
This equipment is designed for indoor installation only.
Sheltered locations such as attics, garages, etc., generally
will not provide sufficient protection against extremes in
temperature and/or humidity, and equipment performance,
reliability, and service may be adversely affected.
Additional Information
Units are designed to start and operate with entering air at
40˚F (4˚C), with entering water at 70˚F (21˚C), with both air
and water at the flow rates used in the ARI-Standard 320-86
rating test, for initial start-up in winter.
Note: This is not a normal or continuous condition. It is
assumed that such a start-up is for the purpose of bringing
the building space to occupancy temperature.
Electrical Data
General
1. Be sure the available power is the same voltage and
phase as that shown on the unit serial plate. Line and
voltage wiring must be done in accordance with
local codes or the National Electrical Code, whichever is applicable.
2. Apply correct line voltage to the unit. A disconnect
switch near the unit is required by code. Power to the
unit must be sized correctly and have dual element
(Class RK5) fuses or HACR circuit breaker for branch
circuit overcurrent protection. See the nameplate for
correct ratings.

3. All 208-230V single phase units are factory wired for 208
volt operation unless specified for 230 volts.
Note: Voltages listed are to show voltage range. However, units operating
with overvoltage or undervoltage for extended periods of time will experience
premature component failure.
Unit Operation
General
Note: At start-up of unit, ensure that temperature, flow rate
and voltage are within specified limits required for proper
unit operation. Each unit has its own control or remote
control, utilizing an internal thermostat (unit mounted) and
touch-pad selector switch or a wall mounted thermostat
(remote control units).
Mark IV/AC-Control Units
Each unit has a Mark IV/AC version printed circuit board. Its
control is available in unit mounted or remote wall thermostat.
The low voltage output from the low voltage terminal strip
on the control board is always 24 volts AC. Terminals F and
V on the low voltage terminal strip supply 24 volts
DC-power.
Continuous Fan: Units are factory wired for continuous
operation. When power is applied and the start switch is
depressed, the fan will run.
Cooling or Heating – Auto Operation: Rotate the thermostat
knob to either warmer or cooler. Select fan speed. Depress
the start button. Unit will start within 0 to 32 seconds.
Lockout Circuit: Each unit has its own lockout circuit to
lock out compressor operation when an abnormal condition
should appear. During unit operation, the compressor will be
automatically turned off due to one of the two safety
openings. High pressure is set at 400 psi (2760 kPa) and low
temperature switch is set at 28˚F (-2˚C). Condensate overflow and brownout protection are also included.
Remote Reset of Automatic Lockouts: The Remote Reset
feature provides the means to remotely reset automatic
lockouts generated by high-pressure and/or low-temperature (in heating) faults. When the Mark IV board is in automatic lockout due to one of these faults, and the cause of the
fault condition has been alleviated, energizing the O-terminal
for 10 seconds or more will force the Mark IV board to clear
the lockout. A unit power cycle can also be used to clear an
automatic lockout if the conditions causing the fault have
been alleviated.
Fault Retry To Minimize Nuisance Trips: The Fault Retry
feature helps to minimize nuisance trips of automatic lockouts caused by high-pressure and/or low-temperature (in
heating) faults. This feature clears faults the first two times
they occur within a 24-hour period and triggers an automatic lockout on the 3rd fault. The retry count is reset to
zero every 24 hours.
Cooling or Heating – Manual Operation: Rotate the
thermostat knob to either warmer or cooler. Select fan
speed, depress the heat or cool button, and unit will start
within 0 to 32 seconds.
The Mark IV/AC-circuit board system has built-in features
such as random start, compressor time delay, night setback,
load shed, shutdown, condensate overflow protection, defrost
cycle, brownout, and LED/fault outputs. Figure 7 shows the
LED and fault output sequences. The 24 volt low voltage
terminal strip is set so R-G energizes the fan. R-W1 energizes
the fan and compressor and reversing valve for heating
operation.
The reversing valve is set up to be energized in the
heating mode. The circuit board has a fan interlock circuit to
energize the fan whenever the compressor is on.
The Mark IV/AC control board has a lockout circuit to
stop compressor operation if any one of its safeties opens
(high pressure or low temperature). If the low temperature
thermostat opens, the unit will go into the cooling mode for
60 seconds to defrost any slush in the water-to-refrigerant
Page 8 / IM 447
heat exchanger. After 60 seconds, the compressor is locked
out. If the condensate sensor detects a filled drain pan, the
compressor operation will be suspended only in the cooling
mode. The unit is reset by opening and closing the disconnect
switch on the main power supply to the unit in the event the
unit compressor operation has been suspended due to low
temperature (freezestat) switch, or high pressure switch.
The Mark IV/AC control circuit has a fault output signal to
an LED on a wall thermostat. Figure 7 shows in which function
the fault output is “on” (sending a signal to the LED).

Pump Restart Relay Kit P/N 061419001
Used as an option with the Mark IV/AC board, the pump
restart relay kit provides a means to alert the loop water
controller that water flow is required by a WSHP so that the
system pump can be started. This option is typically used in
installations where the pump may be shut off when there is
no need for water flow (i.e. temperature OK, etc.). Typically
only one pump restart relay kit is required per installation as
up to 200 Mark IV/AC boards can be “daisy-chained” together.
The Mark IV/AC “P” terminal is used to determine WSHP
compressor operation. Wired as shown below, when compressor operation is required, the Mark IV/AC “P” terminal
Wiring when Installed within the LWC Panel
will change state causing a contact closure between terminal
58 and 64 signaling the loop water control (LWC) panel to
restart the loop pump if Off.
The pump restart relay kit is typically mounted within one
WSHP or within the LWC panel, whichever is more convenient, diagrams are provided below for each location. To
install the relay, remove the cover on the double-faced tape
provided on the relay and attach the relay either to the inside
of the LWC panel (adjacent to circuit breaker CB1 and
terminal block TB3) or in the WSHP control box (in a convenient location), then wire as shown below.

MicroTech Network Control System
Each Console Heat Pump Unit is available with a MicroTech
Unit Controller. The unit controller is a factory mounted,
preprogrammed and pre-tested stand-alone microprocessor
capable of communicating to a local personal computer
through the MicroTech Network Master Panel.
The MicroTech control system includes unit-mounted
return air; discharge air and leaving water temperature
sensors; tenant setpoint adjustment knob and an optional
tenant override button; and the capability of replacing the
return air sensor with a wall-mounted room sensor.
The MicroTech Network Control System is a fully
distributed, direct digital control (DDC) system which allows
the owner to control and monitor water source heat pump
units and auxiliary equipment through a personal computer
to maintain comfort conditions.
The PC has the ability to communicate with each heat
pump unit and with the entire system through two dedicated
conductors, twisted and shielded, in a “daisy chained”
format. Each controller utilizes EEPROM microprocessor
technology, retaining programmable setpoint parameters and
control logic. Each controller may operate as stand-alone,
independent of the network communications and will:
• Control heating and cooling from a return air sensor.
• Provide fan and compressor operation.
• Monitor all safety controls.
• Monitor discharge air temperature.
• Monitor leaving water temperature.
• Provide status of all vital unit functions.
• Provide optional control output.
The MS-DOS compatible software package allows the
operator to interface with each unit controller into the entire
network. Parameters within each controller are factory set
but can be changed from the PC. All control sequencing,
stop/start and safety monitoring is displayed on the PC
screen with the following unique values and parameters for
each unit:
• Return air, discharge air and entering water temperatures.
• Compressor, fan and reversing valve status.
• High pressure, low temperature, brownout and drain pan status.
• Occupied and unoccupied heat and cool setpoints.
• Auto/manual and occupied/unoccupied fan control.
• Mode, fault, system, schedule and setpoint operation.
• Compressor starts and fan run hours.
• Load shed level and tenant override.
In addition, the following unique operation and
maintenance parameters can be displayed for each unit:
• Leaving water temperature
• Return air temperature setpoint adjustment
• Adaptive optimal start
• Occupied/unoccupied (on/cycle) fan mode
• Room temperature warning
• Filter changes from fan hours
• Compressor management: On/off differential, maximum
off time, maximum cycle
Time schedules can be graphically displayed showing start/
stop times for each day of the week and holidays. Up to 16
holiday dates and duration cycles can be set for a total of
240 possible holiday dates. Each heat pump can be assigned
to a different time schedule and any number of heat pumps
can be assigned to the same time schedule.
Group summary screens are available to display various
parameters for 12 units. Screens are grouped to cover major
groups such as temperatures, setpoints and status.
Control and monitoring of the entire water source heat
pump system through the MicroTech Network includes the
MicroTech Loop Water Controller and Application Specific
Controllers complete with graphic displays.
Wall-mounted room sensors are available to control the
heating and cooling operation of each MicroTech Unit
Controller. These include a basic room sensor with optimal
override, LED status and tenant setpoint adjustment.
For remote access, a Modem Access Unit allows a remote
PC to call the MicroTech Network through phone lines as
well as allowing the MicroTech Network to dial predefined
phone numbers.

Field Installed Options on MicroTech™ 2000 Units
MicroTech 2000 units can provide up to 4-outputs, that can
be configured for any of the following output control signals:
1) Scheduled Output
When using a Network Master Panel (NMP) these outputs
can be assigned to one of 32 available schedules. The
output will energize when the assigned schedule is occupied and de-energize when in unoccupied. These outputs
could be used to control lights, etc.
2) Auxiliary Heat (Skin Heat)
When using a Loop Water Controller (LWC) the MicroTech
2000 receives loop water temperature information from
the LWC and will use the Auxiliary Heat output for heating
when loop water temperature is inappropriate for heat
pump heating. These outputs provide a signal that can be
used to control a remote electric heater. The output will
energize on a call for electric heat and de-energize when
not required.
3) Fresh Air Damper
These outputs provide a signal that can be used to control
a remote fresh air damper. The output will energize when
the unit fan is energized and de-energize when the unit
fan is de-energized.
4) Motorized Water Valve
These outputs provide control for a motorized water valve
that can be used to stop or divert flow away from the
WSHP when compressor operation is not needed. The
output will be energized when compressor operation is
required.
If more than one of the above control signals is required on
a single WSHP, the MicroTech 2000 Auxiliary Module Kit
(107239001) must be used and these additional output
control signals will be connected to the Auxiliary board. The
Auxiliary board is provided in all 2-circuit units. 1-circuit units
can provide up to 4-outputs while 2-circuit units only have 3outputs available. The 4
th
control signal output shown in the
diagrams below is not available on 2-circuit units.
If the Auxiliary board is added in the field to provide additional
outputs it will need to be mounted within the WSHP control
box so that J1 on the Auxiliary board can be connected to J6
on the MicroTech 2000 board without exceeding a maximum
wire length of 10".
Also, each output is by default configured to “none” and
must be field set to one of the four signal types listed above
using the Monitor software, cable, and a PC communicating
to the unit through an MCG panel.

Troubleshooting
Should a major problem develop, refer to the following
information for possible cause and corrective steps.
Neither fan nor compressor runs:
1.The fuse may be blown or the circuit breaker is open.
Check electrical circuits and motor windings for
shorts or grounds. Investigate for possible overloading.
Replace fuse or reset circuit breakers after fault is
corrected.
2.Wires may be loose or broken. Replace or tighten.
3.Supply voltage may be too low. Check it with the
power company.
4.Control system may be faulty. Check thermostat for
correct wiring and check 24 volt transformer for burnout.
Fan operates but compressor does not:
1.Check capacitor.
2.Wires may be loose or broken. Replace or tighten.
3.The high pressure may have tripped due to:
a. Fouled or plugged condenser.
b. Lack of or no condenser water.

c. Too warm condenser water.
d. Not enough airflow over the coil due to dirty filters.
e. Coil or fan motor failure.
4.The low temperature switch may have tripped due to:
a. Fouled or plugged condenser.
b. Lack of or no condenser water.
c. Too cold condenser water.
d. Not enough airflow over the coil due to dirty filters.
e. Coil or fan motor failure.
5.Check thermostat setting, calibration and wiring.
6.The compressor overload protection is open. If the
compressor dome is extremely hot, the overload will
not reset until cooled down. If the overload is external,
replace it. If the overload is internal, replace the
compressor.
7.The internal winding of the compressor motor may be
grounded to the compressor shell. If so, replace the
compressor.
8.The compressor winding may be open. Check continuity
with ohmmeter. If the winding is open, replace the
compressor.
Page 18 / IM 447
Compressor attempts to start but doesn’t:
1.Check capacitor.
2.Check for defective compressor by making resistance
check on winding.
3.Check run capacitor.
Compressor runs in short cycle:
1.Check thermostat mounting and location.
2.Check all relays, relaying and contacts.
3.Check run capacitor.
4.Check high pressure switch.
5.Check low temperature switch.
6.See if reversing valve has not fully shifted to either side.
Insufficient cooling or heating:
1.Check thermostat for improper location.
2.Airflow may be insufficient. Check and clean the filter.
3.The reversing valve may be defective, creating a
bypass of refrigerant. If the unit will not heat, check
the reversing valve coil.
4.Check capillary tubes for possible restriction of
refrigerant flow.
5.Check for restriction in water flow.
Insufficient water flow through condenser:
1.Check to see that valves are open all the way.
2.Check for air in lines.
3.Check circulating pump.
Water drips from conditioner:
1.Check for plugged condensate drain.
2.Check for dirty filter.
3.Check to see if condensate drain runs uphill.
4.See if blower motor is up to speed.
5.Check for loose or mispositioned blower.
6.Are drains properly trapped?
Noisy unit operation:
1.Check for fan wheel hitting the housing. Adjust for
clearance.
2.Check for bent fan wheel. Replace if damaged.
3.Check for loose fan wheel on shaft. Tighten.
4.Make sure compressor is floating free on its isolator mounts.
5.Check for tubing touching compressor or other surface. Readjust tubing by bending slightly.
6.Check screws on all panels. Tighten.
7.Check for chattering or humming in the contactor
relays due to low voltage or a defective holding coil.
Replace component.
8.Check water balance to unit for proper water flow rate.
Maintenance
1.Filter changes are required at the regular intervals.
The time period between changes will depend upon
the project requirements. Some applications such as
motels, produce a lot of lint from carpeting and linen
changes, and will require more frequent filter
changes. It is suggested that the filter be checked at
60 day intervals for the first year until experience is
acquired. If light cannot be seen through the filter
when held up to sunlight or a bright light, it should be
changed. A more critical standard may be desirable.
2.The condensate drain pan should be checked annually
and cleaned and flushed as required. Note: Mark IV/
AC equipment has a condensate overflow control device.
In cooling, if compressor will not operate, it may be
due to unit compressor lockout on condensate overflow.
3.Recording of performance measurement of volt amps
and water temperature differences (both heating and
cooling) is recommended. A comparison of logged
data with start-up and other annual data is useful as
an indicator of general equipment condition.
4.Periodic lockouts almost always are caused by air or
water problems. The lockout (shutdown) of the conditioner is a normal protective result. Check for dirt in
the water system, water flow rates, water temperature,
airflow rates (may be dirty filter), and air temperatures.
If the lockout occurs in the morning following a return
from night setback, entering air below machine limits
may be the cause.
5.When checking unit operation, it is important to
gather the correct information.
a.Take voltage reading.
b. Amp reading in both cooling and heating mode
operation.
c.Water temperature difference in both cooling and
heating mode.
d. Air temperature difference in both cooling and
heating mode. Air termperature difference in
cooling mode should include both wet and dry
bulb temperatures.
6.Also record model, catalog, and serial numbers.
