3.1 Filters
The lter section is equipped with 4 inches of pleated disposable or permanent aluminum lters. To remove lters, open the door and slide lters out.
If equipped with permanent aluminum lters, there are sixteen 2"x20"x24" lters.
Remove the lters, wash, rinse, allow to dry, and slide them back in the cabinet. The
P/N for replacement or extra lter is 223065; quantity is 16.
If equipped with pleated disposable lters, there are eight 4"x20"x24" lters, either
MERV8 or MERV13.. Replace dirty lters. Exposure to humid makeup air can accelerate lter degradation. Systems with disposable lters require more frequent lter
inspection. The P/N for one replacement or extra MERV8 lter is 222480; quantity
required is 8. The P/N for one replacement or extra MERV13 lter is 260828; quantity
required is 8.
Dirty Filter Switch - If equipped with a dirty lter switch, check the condition of the
sensing tubes to be sure that they are not blocked. Check the wiring connections. To
set a new switch, see Installation Form I-MAPSIII&IV, Paragraph 8.1, Replacement
switch is P/N 105507.
Permanent Filters in
the Outside Air Hood
If equipped with an outside air hood, there are 1" permanent, aluminum lters at the
entrance of the hood. The lters act as a moisture eliminator and bird screen.
When inspecting the inlet air lters, inspect the outside air hood lters. If cleaning is
needed, remove the lters, clean, rinse, dry and re-install. NOTE: If it is more conve-
nient to keep an extra clean set of lters, lter sizes and part numbers are shown in
the illustration.

3.2 Drive Components
Bearings - Bearings with a grease tting should be lubricated twice a year with a high
temperature, moisture-resistant grease. (Type NLGI-1 or -2 standard grease is recommended.) Be sure to clean the grease tting before adding grease. Add grease with a
handgun until a slight bead of grease forms at the seal. Be careful not to unseat the
seal by over lubricating. NOTE: If unusual environmental conditions exist (tempera-
tures below 32°F or above 200°F; moisture; or contaminants), more frequent lubrication is required.
CAUTION: If the blower is unused for more than three months,
bearings with a grease tting should be purged with new grease
prior to start-up.
Setscrews - Check all of the setscrews (bearing/blower hubs and pulleys). Torque pul-
ley setscrews a minimum of 110 in-lb to 130 in-lb maximum.
A bearing hub setscrew for a 1-3/8" to 1-3/4" shaft requires a 5/16" socket and a tightening torque of 165 in-lbs.
Belts - Check belt for proper tension and wear. Adjust belt tension as needed. Replace
worn belts.
Blower systems are equipped with either Power Twist Plus
belt. The linked belts are designed in sections allowing for easy sizing and adjustment.
The belt is sized at the factory for the proper tension. If the belt needs adjustment, the
recommended method of shortening the belt length is to count the number of links and
remove one link for every 24. (A link is made up of two joining sections of belt. For easier removal of links, turn the belt inside out. But be sure to turn it back before installing.)
If equipped with a solid belt, adjust the belt tension by turning the adjusting screw on
the motor base until the belt can be depressed 1/2" (13mm) on each side. After correct
tension is achieved, re-tighten the locknut on the adjustment screw.
Proper belt tension is important to the long life of the belt and motor.
Be sure belts are aligned in the pulleys. If a belt is removed or replaced, be sure to align
directional arrows on the belt to the proper drive rotation.
Motor and Blower - Inspect the motor mounts periodically. Remove dust and dirt accumulation from the motor and wheel.
The blower has cast iron, pillowblock, sealed bearings. Under most operating conditions, re-lubrication is unnecessary. If lubrication is required, use a lubricant compatible to Shell Alvania #2 (lithium base - Grade 2). Operating temperature range is -30
to 230°F.
"D" size cabinets have plenum fan blowers which have an extension to the grease tting on the side of the fan assembly.
If any drive parts need to be replaced, use only factory-authorized replacements
designed for the application.

3.5 Check
Refrigerant
Pressure and
Temperatures
(subcooling and
superheat)
DANGER
The refrigeration circuits are high pressure systems. Hazards
exist that could result in personal injury or death. Removal,
installation, and service of this scroll compressor must be
performed by a technician qualied in R-410A refrigerant.
DO NOT USE tools or service equipment designed for R22
refrigerant. See Hazard Levels, page 2.
Check SUBCOOLING
Measure and record temperature and pressure of the liquid line at the condenser coil
outlet.
STEP 1) Record Measurements: Temperature = ________°F (°C) and
Pressure = ________ psig
STEP 2) From Temperature/Pressure Conversion Chart (page 10), convert
Measured Pressure (STEP 1) to ________°F (°C)
STEP 3) Subtract Measured Temperature (STEP 1) from Temperature from
Recommended superheat at is 8 to 12 degrees F (4.5 to 6.7
degrees C).
Typically, too much superheat indicates that the evaporator coil is undercharged.
Too little superheat typically indicates that the evaporator coil is overcharged and
may potentially ood liquid refrigerant to the compressor. To reduce the superheat,
adjust the thermal expansion valve by turning the adjusting stem counterclockwise.
To increase the superheat, adjust the thermal expansion valve by turning the adjusting stem clockwise.

3.5 Check Refrigerant Pressure and Temperatures (subcooling and superheat)
(cont'd)
The refrigeration circuits are high pressure systems.
Hazards exist that could result in personal injury or death. It
is therefore required that the removal and installation of this
scroll compressor be performed by a technician qualied in
R-410A refrigerant. See Hazard Levels, page 2.
Never use oxygen to pressurize a refrigeration system. Oxygen
can explode on contact with oil and could result in personal injury
or death. When using high pressure gas such as nitrogen for
this purpose, ALWAYS USE A PRESSURE REGULATOR that can
control the pressure down to 1 or 2 psig. Failure to use a regulator
will result in extremely high pressure which could exceed the
burst pressure of the compressor or other system components
and result in personal injury or death. See Hazard Levels, page 2.
DANGER
DANGER
Page 11
WARNINGS
For your safety, wear eye protection, gloves, and protective clothing
when handling refrigerant and oil and when brazing. Have a re
extinguisher nearby. See Hazard Levels, page 2.
Compressor Handling
Do not lift compressor by copper tubing. To prevent internal damage, compressors
must ALWAYS be held upright.
The following instructions include major points of consideration that will ensure proper
installation and protect you from potential personal injury. Please use the following 13
steps as a checklist, taking each item in order before proceeding to the next. If more
information is required, contact the Reznor Service Department for Reznor® products.
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock, power to the com-pressor(s) MUST REMAIN
OFF during performance of Steps 1 through 9 below. LOCK DISCONNECT
SWITCH OFF (open).
Step 1. Verify Proper Application
Verify that the replacement compressor is identical to the model being replaced.
All system components are matched to the compressor. Replacing a compressor
with a model other than the one specied for replacement will void the product
warranty. See part numbers for R-410A compressors on page 13.
Step 2. Determine Cause of Initial Failure and Remove the
Compressor
In order to prevent a second failure, the cause of the original failure must be
determined. Identify the cause and make the necessary repairs.
CAUTION: DO NOT LIFT compressor by copper tubing; damage will
occur. Compressor must remain upright.
WARNING
Wear eye protection and gloves when handling refrigerant or oil and
when brazing.
a) BEFORE REMOVING THE FAULTY COMPRESSOR, remove refrigerant charge
using proper recovery procedures. Call 1-800-441-9450 for the name of the nearest
Dupont authorized distributor or 1-800-ASK-KLEA (IGI) for information on their refrigerant reclaim programs.
b) Disconnect wires. All compressor wiring is connected using a black molded
plastic plug. Remove the plug from the compressor.
c) Open access ports so that pressure does not build up in the system. Before
unbrazing stubs from the compressor, cut suction and discharge tubing with a
tubing cutter.
WARNING
Have a re extinguisher near. The compressor contains oil. There is a
risk of re when unbrazing stubs.
Use a high temperature torch to disconnect the suction line and the discharge line from
the compressor.
d) Remove the mounting bolts and the compressor. Save the mounting hardware
to attach the grommets and sleeves shipped with the replacement compressor.
e) To test for acid and to assure excess oil does not remain in the circuit, remove
oil from the failed compressor. Measure the amount of oil.
CAUTION: In addition to the required eye protection and gloves, care
should be taken in handling POE oil because it may cause damage to
certain plastics and roong materials. See Hazard Levels, page 2.

Important NOTES: These R-410A compressors use a polyolester (POE)
lubricant. Types of recommended POE oil are Copeland Ultra 22 CC, Copeland Ultra
32 CC, Copeland Ultra 32-3MAF, Mobil EAL™, Arctic 22 CC, Uniqema Emkarate RL32CF,
or Uniqema RL32-3MAF.
POE oil absorbs moisture much quicker and to a greater degree than standard
mineral oil. The compressor must not be left open longer than 15 minutes
during replacement. During installation the system must be swept with an inert
gas such as dry nitrogen to keep moisture from entering the compressor and
prevent the formation of oxides.
If the oil taken from the compressor and measured is found to be signicantly
lower than listed in the table above, clean the excess oil through use of suction
and liquid line lter driers. Beginning in Step 4, follow the same procedure
as for burnout cleanup.
Use an acid test kit to check the oil for acid. If acid is found, beginning in
Step 4, follow procedures indicated for burnout cleanup.
Dispose of oil and compressor using an approved environmentally safe
disposal method.
□ Step 3. Mount the Replacement Compressor
Do not remove the dust cover or rubber shipping plugs until all other system
connections are complete (i.e. new liquid line lter drier(s) installed and all tubing
changes made - see Steps 4 and 5). The amount of time the compressor is open
to the atmosphere must be kept to a minimum.
Use the new mounting grommets and sleeves that are shipped with the
compressor to mount it. The sleeves will prevent over compression of the
grommets. Re-use the mounting bolts from the compressor that was removed. The
mounting bolts will bottom out when tight.

□ Step 4. Install New Filter Driers (Select procedure that applies.)
IF the oil measured in Step 2 was not signicantly less than the amount shown
in the table on page 12 or the test for acid in Step 2 did NOT indicate burnout ,
install a new R-410A refrigerant liquid line lter drier. The lter drier must be rated
for no less than 600 psig and be the proper size for the circuit. Because R-410A
refrigerant requires POE oil which absorbs moisture quickly, it is important to
change the lter drier any time the circuit is opened.
It is recommended to use a tubing cutter when cutting out a lter drier as the
desiccant absorbs and holds moisture better when it is cool. Heat from a torch may
cause moisture to leave the lter and be absorbed in the oil. Be careful to keep
dirt, lings, and other contaminants out of the system.
Continue to Step 5.
IF the oil measured in Step 2 was signicantly less than shown in the table on
page 12 or the test for acid in Step 2 did indicate compressor burnout, do the
following:
a) Install a liquid line lter drier. If there is acid, install an acid removing lter drier.
Size the acid-removing lter drier at least one capacity size larger than normally
required for the circuit.
b) Install a temporary lter drier in the suction line. When there is acid, a 100%
activated alumina suction lter drier is recommended. The suction line drier
should be sized properly for the circuit and have a service access tting to

□ Step 4. Install New Filter Driers (cont'd)
monitor pressure drop across the drier. (NOTE: Suction line lter drier must be
removed after 72 hours of operation.)
Step 12 includes the remaining procedures required for cleanup of a burnout. Continue to Step 5.
□ Step 5. Braze on Suction and Discharge Lines
CAUTION; Do not leave system open to the atmosphere any
longer than minimum required for installation. POE oil in the
compressors is extremely susceptible to moisture absorption.
Always keep ends of tubing sealed during installation. See Hazard
Levels, page 2.
Brazing materials must be able to withstand the high pressure of R-410A refrigerant.
A high temperature, silver phosphate type brazing with 5% or greater alloy is recommended.
To prevent oxidation, purge tubing with 2-3 psig of regulated dry nitrogen while it is
being brazed. Open the service valve as needed to release the nitrogen. Do not allow
moisture to enter the system.
The installer is responsible for brazing and for complying with appropriate standard
refrigerant piping procedures.
CAUTION:All brazing should be done using a 2 to 3 psig dry
nitrogen purge owing through the pipe being brazed. See Hazard
Levels, pg 2.
CAUTION: When brazing, protect all painted surfaces and
components from excessive heat. Wet wrap all valves but do not
allow moisture to enter the tubing. See Hazard Levels, page 2.
□ Step 6. Check System for Leaks
After installation is complete, pressurize the circuit to approximately 75 psig using
nitrogen and a few ounces of refrigerant. Check for leaks using soap bubbles or
other leak-detecting methods.
□ Step 7. Evacuate the Circuit
Evacuate one circuit at a time. Use a vacuum pump and micron gauge. Each
circuit must be evacuated to hold a 500 micron vacuum. Vacuum must be pulled
on both the discharge (high) and suction (low) side. Do the suction side rst; and
the compressor discharge side second. To establish that a circuit is leak-free
and moisture-free, a standing vacuum test is recommended. Close off the valve
to the vacuum pump and observe the micron gauge. If the vacuum gauge does
not rise above 500 microns in one minute, the evacuation should be complete.
If the vacuum gauge does rise above 500 microns in one minute, evacuation
is incomplete or the circuit has a leak. Repeat as needed until evacuation is
complete. The evacuation process must be done on each circuit.
NOTE: Evacuation will not remove moisture from POE oil. Moisture must be
prevented from getting in the oil.
Continue and/or repeat Steps 6 and 7 until evacuation is complete.
CAUTION: Do not use the replacement compressor as an
evacuation assist and never apply voltage to a compressor while
it is in a vacuum. See Hazard Levels, page 2.
Moisture and air are harmful to the system because they increase the condensing
temperature, raise the discharge gas temperature, cause formation of acids, and
cause oil breakdown.
Form O-MAPSIII Cabinet D, P/N 222918R9, Page 14
Page 15
CAUTION: Do not leave a circuit open to the atmosphere any
longer than minimum required for installation. POE oil in the
compressor is extremely susceptible to moisture absorption.
Evacuation will not remove moisture from POE oil.
□ Step 8. Check the Electrical System
After the system has been evacuated, reconnect the electrical plug to the compressor
or the wires to the compressor terminals. It is a normal practice to replace all starting
components any time a compressor is changed.
WARNING
Do not apply voltage to the compressor when the plug is
removed or terminals disconnected.
Crankcase Heater - Connect the crankcase heater. The crankcase heater is ener-
gized continuously and is extremely important to proper compressor operation and
long life.
The crankcase heater must be energized for at least 24 hours before starting the unit
or after a power outage of more than 8 hours. Be sure to disable cooling controls
before turning on power to warm up crankcase heaters.
CAUTION: Crankcase heaters must be allowed to warm up for
at least 24 hours prior to startup. Disable cooling controls before
turning on power to warm up crankcase heaters.
□ Step 9. Charge the System (Use R-410A refrigerant only.)
Refer to the table on page 16 for the approximate amount of refrigerant required
and follow the instructions below to charge the circuit. R-410A refrigerant MUST
BE charged as a LIQUID.
NOTE: Outdoor temperature must be between 70-95°F (21-35°C) for verifying
superheat and subcooling. If temperature is not within this range, consult the
factory service department before charging.
If equipped with an optional hot gas bypass valve, disable the hot gas bypass
valve before charging. The method of disabling the bypass valve depends
on whether or not there is a shutoff valve in the line between the compressor
discharge and the hot gas bypass valve.
If there is a shutoff valve in the line between the compressor discharge and the
hot gas bypass valve, close the shutoff valve. When measurements are complete,
open the valve.
If there is not a shutoff valve in the line between the compressor discharge and
the hot gas bypass valve, disable the bypass by removing the cover from the
bypass valve and adjusting the spring tension. Count and record the number of
counterclockwise turns until the spring tension is relieved. (When ready to return
the bypass valve to its original setting, turn the spring the same number of turns
clockwise. To check setting, see instructions in Paragraph 3.9.5.)
IMPORTANT: Do not release refrigerant to the atmosphere! If
required service procedures include the adding or removing
of refrigerant, the qualied HVAC service technician must
comply with all federal, state or provincial, and local laws.
Liquid charge the high side to 80%. With the system running, add the balance of
the charge to the correct superheat and subcooling values. Refer to Step 11, page
17, and the instructions in Paragraph 3.5, page 9.

□ Step 10. System Startup
Assure voltage to compressor does not drop below minimum allowable voltage
(e.g. 187 volts for 230/208-3-60, 415 volts for 460/3/60, 518 volts for 575/3/60)
during the period the compressor is trying to start. If a low voltage or voltage
imbalance condition exists, the electrical problem must be determined and
corrected prior to operating the unit.
Voltage Imbalance - Voltage imbalance is becoming a more common problem.
In a 3-phase system, excessive voltage imbalance between phases will cause
motors to overheat and compressors to fail. Maximum allowable imbalance is
2%. To determine voltage imbalance, measure and record the voltage of all three
phases. Take the measurements at the compressor terminals with the compressor
operating.
Voltage Imbalance Formula:
Key:
Formula:
If the imbalance is within the 2% tolerance, voltage imbalance is not a problem and
the system may be operated. If the imbalance exceeds the 2% tolerance, follow
the procedures below.
Solutions to Voltage Imbalance:
The cause for a voltage imbalance problem can originate at the power company or
can be caused inside the building. Try the following on-site solution to determine if
the problem can be easily resolved.
Roll the connections at the compressor terminals one forward. Connect the wire
now on Terminal 1 to Terminal 2, 2 to 3, and 3 to 1. Re-measure and re-calculate
the voltage imbalance. If the imbalance is within 2%, the system may be operated.
If the imbalance is not within tolerance, roll the connections one more forward.
Re-measure and re-calculate the voltage imbalance. If the imbalance is within
2%, the system may be operated. If the voltage imbalance still exceeds 2%, do
not start the system. Contact the building owner or person responsible to have an
electrician analyze the buildings's power supply and load distribution.
Power Supply Voltage Phasing - Connect refrigerant pressure gauges to the
suction and discharge lines of the compressors and an electric meter to the power
supply.
V1, V2, V3 = line voltages as measured
VA (Average )= (V1 + V2+ V3) / 3
VD = Line Voltage (V1, V2, or V3 that deviates farthest from average (VA)
% of Voltage Imbalance = [100 (VA - VD)] / VA
Form O-MAPSIII Cabinet D, P/N 222918R9, Page 16
Page 17
CAUTION: Be sure to connect pressure gauges to the suction
and discharge lines before system start-up so that compressor
rotation can be checked immediately. Scroll compressors will be
destroyed if allowed to operate in the wrong direction. See Hazard
Levels, page 2.
Record the ambient temperature. Adjust the system controller so that a call for
cooling exists.
NOTE: Outdoor ambient lockouts may prevent mechanical cooling. Temporarily
override lockouts by lowering the cooling setpoint. When testing is complete, reset
the controller.
Because it is possible to unknowingly connect 3-phase power in such a way
as to cause the scroll compressor or blower to rotate in reverse, it is very
important to check this on startup.
Check Compressors - Immediately at startup, observe the gauges. If the
suction pressure rises and discharge pressure drops, the compressor is
operating in reverse and must be shut down. Turn off the power and switch
the 3-phase line voltage wiring connections before restarting the unit.
(Important NOTE: If allowed to operate for several minutes in reverse, the
compressor’s internal protector will trip. If a compressor is repeatedly
allowed to restart and run in reverse, the compressor will be permanently
damaged.)
□ Step 11. Check Subcooling and Superheat
Superheat is the verication that the evaporator coil is properly using the
refrigerant supplied. Too much superheat indicates that the coil is undercharged.
Too little superheat indicates that the coil is overcharged and potentially ooding
liquid refrigerant to the compressor.
Subcooling is the measurement of liquid refrigerant stored in the condenser
coil. Too much subcooling indicates a system overcharge. Too little subcooling
indicates a system undercharge and may not provide the thermal expansion valve
with a full column of liquid refrigerant for proper operation.
Two important requirements before checking superheat and subcooling:
1) This unit has fully intertwined refrigerant circuits and each circuit MUST be
isolated before measuring its temperature. Another active circuit will inuence the
reading and make it impossible to determine accurate superheat and subcooling.
2) If equipped with an optional hot gas bypass, disable the hot gas bypass valve
before charging. The method of disabling the bypass valve depends on whether or
not there is a shutoff valve in the line between the compressor discharge and the
hot gas bypass valve.
If there is a shutoff valve in the line between the compressor discharge and the
hot gas bypass valve, close the shutoff valve. When measurements are complete,
open the valve.
If there is not a shutoff valve in the line between the compressor discharge and
the hot gas bypass valve, disable the bypass by removing the cover from the
bypass valve and adjusting the spring tension. Count and record the number of
counterclockwise turns until the spring tension is relieved. (When ready to return
the bypass valve to its original setting, turn the spring the same number of turns
clockwise. To check setting, see instructions in Paragraph 3.9.5.)
IMPORTANT: Do not release refrigerant to the atmosphere! If
required service procedures include the adding or removing
of refrigerant, the qualied HVAC service technician must
comply with all federal, state or provincial, and local laws.

□ Step 11. Check Subcooling and Superheat. (cont'd)
Follow the procedures in Paragraph 3.5 to check subcooling and superheat.
□ Step 12. (Select the procedure that applies.)
IF the oil measured in Step 2 was signicantly less than in the table on
page 12 or the acid test in Step 2 indicated a burnout, do the following:
a) Operate the unit for several hours. Check the pressure drop through the
temporary suction line lter drier. If the pressure drop exceeds 8 psig, recover
the refrigerant, replace the suction line lter drier with the same type as
removed, replace the liquid line lter drier, evacuate the circuit, and re-charge
with the recovered refrigerant.
Continue to monitor the pressure drop through the suction line lter drier and
repeat the process above until the pressure does not exceed 8 psig after
several hours of operation. (NOTE: System must be allowed to run no more
than 72 hours with a suction line lter drier.)
b) Allow the system to operate for 4-8 hours. Recover the refrigerant and take an
oil sample. Retest the oil for acid.
c) If the test for acid is negative, remove the suction line lter drier, replace
the liquid line drier, evacuate, and re-charge the system with the recovered
refrigerant.
If the test indicates acid, replace both the liquid line lter drier and the suction
line lter drier and repeat b) and c).
CAUTION: After cleanup is complete, remove the suction line
lter drier. See Hazard Levels, page 2.
3.7 Thermostatic

Valves
d) Verify subcooling and superheat (refer to Step 11).
e) When the system is operating properly, remove the gauges.
IF the oil measured in Step 2 was not signicantly less than that shown
in the table on page 12 or the acid test in Step 2 did not indicate a
compressor burnout, continue to the review in Step 13.
□ Step 13 . Review ALL Steps to ensure that nothing was
overlooked.
All refrigeration circuits have a thermostatic expansion valve. Thermostatic expansion
valves (TXV's) do not have replaceable parts. If a replacement valve is required, it
must be an R410-A valve and be sized correctly for the application. All refrigerant ser-
vice should be performed by a technician qualied in R410-A refrigerant.
Replacement valves by size and circuit are listed in the following table.

es to the main controller that the blower (plenum fan) is operating.
Service: If the switch needs to be replaced, use a factory-authorized
replacement designed for the application.
Function: When the main controller calls for blower operation, either an IEC type
starter with a contactor or a variable frequency drive module responds to operate the
motor.
The starter is in the high voltage control compartment. The variable frequency drive
was eld installed in a location that is no more than 50 feet (15M) away where the
minimum temperature is 18°F (-9°C). Control of the variable frequency drive module is
coordinated with the main controller, and depending on what was ordered, can function
in response to temperature, CO2, or pressure controls.
Service: If a starter or contactor need replaced, use only the identical replacement that
is designed to match the motor and voltage of the system.
If a VFD needs to be replaced, contact the factory service department. Be prepared to
provide the model, serial, and wiring diagram numbers.
Function: Phase loss and low or high voltage can cause damage to electrical components. This safety control monitors phase loss and voltage and shuts down the unit
when its limits are exceeded. The device is auto reset and allows the unit to restart
when the power conditions are corrected.
Function: The hot gas bypass valve allows some of the refrigerant gas from the suction line to be re-routed directly to the evaporator coil providing for expanded compressor modulation at low outside air temperatures.
Service: To check the hot gas bypass valve setting, connect a pressure gauge to the
suction line and block the entering air to the evaporator coil. Suction pressure will drop,
and the hot gas bypass valve should begin to open at a approximately 115 psi and will
be fully open at 95 psi. When the valve begins to open it will be hot to the touch (see
caution below).
Page 21
CAUTION: Touching the operating hot gas bypass valve can
cause a burn. Use caution when checking and adjusting the
valve. See Hazard Levels, page 2.
If a hot gas bypass valve needs to be replaced, use only a factory-authorized replace-
ment for R410-A refrigerant. All refrigerant service should be done by a qualied
R410-A service technician.
3.9.6 Modulating
Reheat, Option AUR1
4.0 Gas Heat
Section
Maintenance Models RDCB
and RDDB
Function: Units with modulating reheat control (Option AUR1) have a temperature
control board with a potentiometer, an air temperature sensor, and an electric discharge bypass valve. When reheat is active, the sensor monitors the air temperature
as it leaves the reheat coil. Based on the potentiometer setpoint, the board will open
or close the bypass valve. If the leaving air temperature is higher than the setpoint, the
board will open the valve adding refrigerant hot gas to the refrigerant liquid before it
enters the pre-cool coil. This reduces the coil's ability to absorb the heat, and thus, the
reheat coil's ability to reject. If the leaving air temperature is lower than the setpoint,
the opposite occurs.
Service: Check the wiring connections at the board. The board is polarity sensitive;
positive connects to terminal 1 and negative to terminal 2.
The valve may be tested by measuring the resistance of the leads. Remove the power
and the leads from the board before testing. Resistance between the black and white
leads should be about 75 Ohms. Resistance between the green and red leads should
be within 5% of the white and black.
Use only factory-authorized replacement parts.
This gas heater will operate with a minimum of maintenance. To ensure long life and
satisfactory performance, a heater that is operated under normal conditions should be
inspected and cleaned at the start of each heating season. If the heater is operating in
an area where an unusual amount of dust or soot or other impurities are present in the
air, more frequent maintenance is recommended.
When any service is completed, be careful to reassemble correctly to ensure that no
unsafe conditions are created. When re-lighting, always follow the lighting instructions
on the furnace.

Note that during normal operation of the AG70 deep modulation control system, the
current draw of the venter motor can exceed the full load amp rating on its nameplate.
This condition is common when employing electronic wave-chopping technology to
reduce the running speed of a single-phase type PSC alternating current motor. The
technology reduces energy to the main winding by momentarily interrupting current for
a variable amount of time, resulting in a reduction of the motor speed. The increased
current is a result of increased slip, which is the difference between the rotation speeds
of the rotor and stator elds. All motors used in MAPS III systems are custom designed
and built for this unique modulating application and cannot be replaced with a non-
approved motor. All prototype motors have been thoroughly tested with regards to
temperature of the windings and bearings at all operating points and ambient conditions and approved by the manufacturer to assure the elevated current does not affect
the normal motor life expectancy.
Remove dirt and grease from the venter housing, the motor casing, and the venter
wheel. Venter motor bearings are permanently lubricated.
If replacing venter parts, see FIGURE 11 for proper spacing. If the motor plate gasket
is damaged or deteriorated, replace it with P/N 222856.

Modulating Gas
Control Sequence of
Operation (single heat
section sizes and the
heat section furthest
from the blower on
dual heat section sizes
- natural gas only)
1) Call for Heat - The IQ controller calls for heat (there is a closure between "R" and
"W" and at least 2 VDC to the analog input). The ignition system circuit board will check
the modulating valve position and move to lightoff position. It checks to see that the limit
switch is closed and the pressure switch is open. If the pressure switch is closed, the
circuit board will wait indenitely for the switch to open. If the switch is open, the circuit
board proceeds to prepurge.
2) Prepurge - After the actuator moves to its lightoff position, the circuit board energizes the venter motor and waits for the pressure switch to close. If the pressure switch
does not close at the beginning of a heat cycle, the venter motor will run for two min-
utes, then cycle off for 30 seconds, then on for two minutes, and so forth indenitely.
When the pressure switch is proven closed, the venter motor ramps up to the appropri-
ate lightoff speed and the circuit board begins the prepurge time. If ame is present any
time while in prepurge, the prepurge time is restarted. If ame is present long enough to
cause lockout, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide in Paragraph 6.2.2. The ignition system circuit board runs the venter motor for a 30-second prepurge time, then proceeds
to the ignition trial period.
3) Ignition Trial Period - The ignition system circuit board energizes the spark and
main gas valve. The venter remains energized. If ame is sensed during the rst 6
seconds, the spark is de-energized. If ame has not been sensed during the rst 6
seconds, the control de-energizes the spark output and keeps the gas valve energized
for an additional one second ame proving period. If ame is not present after the ame
proving period, the control de-energizes the gas valve and proceeds with three ignition
re-tries as specied in “Abnormal Heat Cycle, Ignition Retry”. If ame is present, the
circuit board proceeds to steady heat. After three re-tries, the board will lockout for one
hour. It will require a cycling of power to reset before the one-hour limit.
4) Modulating Heat - As long as the call for heat exists, the circuit board not only
modulates the gas to precisely meet varying load conditions, but also modulates the
combustion air to maintain stable performance and optimize thermal efciency across
the entire modulating range. Circuit board inputs are continuously monitored to ensure
limit switch is closed and ame is established. When the call for heat is removed, the
ignition system circuit board de-energizes the gas valve and begins postpurge timing.
5) Post Purge - The venter motor output remains on for a 45 second postpurge period
after the system controller is satised.

Normal Heat Cycle Operating Sequence - Non-Modulating Furnace
of D Cabinet with Size 1000, 1200, 1400, or 1600 Heat Section
1) Call for Heat - The heating/cooling system controller calls for heat. The ignition system circuit board checks to see that the limit switch is closed and the pressure switch is
open. If the limit switch is open, the circuit board responds as dened in the “Abnormal
Heat Cycle, Limit Switch Operation”. If the pressure switch is closed, the circuit board
will do four ashes on the green LED and wait indenitely for the pressure switch to
open. If the pressure switch is open, the circuit board proceeds to prepurge.
2) Prepurge - The circuit board energizes the venter motor and waits for the pressure
switch to close. If the pressure switch does not close within 30 seconds of the venter
motor energizing, the circuit board will do two ashes on the green LED. The circuit
board will leave the venter motor energized indenitely as long as the call for heat
remains and the pressure switch is open.
When the pressure switch is proven closed, the circuit board begins the prepurge time.
If ame is present any time while in prepurge, the prepurge time is restarted. If ame is
present long enough to cause lockout, the circuit board responds as dened in “Fault
Modes, Undesired Flame”.
The ignition system circuit board runs the venter motor for a 20 second prepurge time,
then proceeds to the ignition trial period.
3) Ignition Trial Period - The ignition system circuit board energizes the spark and
main gas valve. The venter remains energized. If ame is sensed at the burner during
the rst 16 seconds, the spark is de-energized. If ame has not been sensed during
the rst 16 seconds, the control de-energizes the spark output and keeps the gas valve
energized for an additional one second ame proving period. If ame is not present
after the ame proving period, the control de-energizes the gas valve and proceeds
with ignition re-tries as specied in “Abnormal Heat Cycle, Ignition Retry”. If ame is
present, the circuit board proceeds to steady heat.
4) Steady Heat - Circuit board inputs are continuously monitored to ensure limit and
pressure switches are closed, ame is established, and the system controller call for
heat remains. When the call for heat is removed, the ignition system circuit board deenergizes the gas valve and begins postpurge timing.
5) Post Purge - The venter motor output remains on for a 45 second postpurge period
after the system controller is satised.

Interrupted Call for Heat - If the system controller call for heat is removed before the
ame is recognized, the circuit board will run the venter motor for the post purge period
and de-energize all outputs.
If the call for heat is removed after successful ignition, the circuit board will de-energize
the gas valve and run the venter motor through post purge.
Ignition Retry - If ame is not established on the 1st trial for ignition period, the igni-
tion system circuit board de-energizes the gas valve, and the venter motor remains
energized for an inter-purge period of 10 seconds. The spark and gas valve are then
re-energized, and the circuit board initiates a 2nd trial for ignition.
If ame is not established on the 2nd trial for ignition, the circuit board de-energizes
the gas valve and venter motor remains energized. The spark and gas valve are reenergized and the circuit board initiates a 3rd trial for ignition.
If ame is not established on the 3rd trial for ignition period, the circuit board de-energizes the gas valve, and the venter motor remains energized for an inter-purge period
of 10 seconds. The circuit board then re-energizes the gas valve and spark and initiates a 4th trial for ignition.

of D Cabinet with Size
1000, 1200, 1400, or
1600 Heat Section
If ame is not established on the 4th trial for ignition (initial try plus 3 re-tries), the circuit
board de-energizes the gas valve and goes into lockout. The circuit board goes to one
ash on the green LED to indicate ignition failure lockout.
Limit Switch Operation - The limit switch is ignored unless a call for heat is present
(W energized). If the limit switch is open and a call for heat is present, the control deenergizes the gas valve and runs the blower motor on heat speed and runs the venter
motor. The control will be in soft lockout and ashing fault code "3" before returning to
normal operation.
When the switch re-closes or the call for heat is lost, the control runs the venter motor
through post purge and the blower through the selected fan off delay.
Pressure Switch - If the pressure switch opens before the trial for ignition period, the
venter motor will run through the pressure switch recognition delay (2 seconds), the
gas valve will be de-energized, and the venter motor will run through the postpurge
time. The ignition system circuit board will re-start the heat cycle at the pressure switch
proving state if the call for heat still exists.
Pressure switch opening for less than 2 seconds during the trial for ignition period shall
not interrupt the heat cycle. (Gas valve will de-energize while the pressure switch is
open.)
If the pressure switch opens after a successful ignition, the circuit board will de-ener-
gize the gas valve. If ame is lost before the end of the 2 second pressure switch recognition delay, the circuit board will respond to the loss of ame. If the pressure switch
remains open for 2 seconds and the ame remains, the circuit board de-energizes the
gas valve and the venter motor runs through postpurge
Undesired Flame - If ame is sensed longer than 20 seconds while the gas valve
is de-energized, the circuit board shall energize the venter motor. When ame is no
longer sensed, the venter motor will run through postpurge. The circuit board will do
a soft lockout, but will still respond to open limit and ame. The FLAME (yellow) LED
ashes rapidly.
Gas Valve Relay Fault - If the circuit board senses the gas valve as energized for
more than one second when the circuit board is not attempting to energize the gas
valve, or the gas valve is sensed as not energized when it is supposed to be energized,
then the circuit board will lockout with the green LED off. The control assumes either
the contacts of the relay driving the gas valve have welded shut, or the sensing circuit
has failed. The venter motor is forced off to open the pressure switch to stop gas ow
unless ame is present.
If the gas valve was sensed as closed when it should be open, and has not de-energized after the venter motor was shutoff for 15 seconds, then the venter motor is reenergized to vent the unburned gas.
Soft Lockout - The circuit board shall not initiate a call for heat while in lockout. The
circuit board will still respond to an open limit and undesired ame. Lockout shall automatically reset after one hour. Lockout may be manually reset by removing power from
the circuit board for more than one second or removing the call for heat for more than
one and less than 20 seconds.
Hard Lockout - If the circuit board detects a fault on the board, the status LED will
be de-energized, and the circuit board will lockout as long as the fault remains. A hard
lockout will automatically reset if the hardware fault clears.
Power Interruption - During a momentary power interruption or at voltage levels
below the minimum operating voltage (line voltage or low voltage) the ignition system
will self-recover without lockout when voltage returns to the operating range.
Power interruptions of less than 80mS shall not cause the circuit board to change
operating states. Power interruptions greater than 80mS may cause the circuit board
to interrupt the current operating cycle and re-start.

Location: The gas train is visible with the heat section door open. See component identication in FIGURE 15.
Service: Carefully remove external dirt from the valves and check the wiring connec-
tions. Annually, in preparation for the heating season, check the dual, single-stage
operating valve to be sure that it shuts gas ow off completely.
If any gas valves or other gas train components need to be replaced, they must be
replaced with identical part or factory-authorized replacement.
Dual Single-Stage Operating Gas Valve - All gas heat sections have one or two dual single-stage gas valves.
WARNING
he operating valve is the prime safety shutoff. All gas supply lines must be free of dirt or
scale before connecting to the unit to ensure positive closure. See Hazard Levels, page 2.

3) Use your nger to fully block the burner orice. Continue blocking the orice for
several seconds and observe the manometers. If any pressure is indicated, the
gas valve is leaking. A leaking gas valve must be replaced before the heater is put
back in operation.
4) Repeat the test with each dual single-stage gas valve.
The dual single-stage gas valve(s) must be checked
annually to ensure that each valve is shutting off gas ow
completely.
Instructions:
1) Locate the 1/8" NPT pressure taps on the
combination valve (see illustration on the left).
2) Turn the manual valve OFF to prevent ow to the
manifold. Connect a manometer to both of the 1/8”
outlet pressure taps. NOTE: Manometers (uid-
lled gauges) with inches water column scale are
recommended. Turn the manual valve ON and the
heater off.
The modulating furnace has a ball valve
with an actuator to control gas ow. The
ball valve and actuator are located downstream of the dual single-stage valve as
shown here.
Carefully clean external dirt accumulation from the actuator.

Modulating System Gas Valve Adjustment Instructions (cont'd)
If the manifold pressure does not match the value in
the chart and the ball valve is fully or close to fully
open, adjust the pressure screws) on the Honeywell
valve (See FIGURE 16) until the pressure matches
the chart. Adjust both pressure screws so that they
are the same. When the manifold pressure measured
at the manometer matches the pressure listed in the
chart, make a note for future reference of the position
of the ball valve stem in relation to the dash marks on
the actuator.
3. On the display, change the ModHeat setting to
0% modulation and allow the ball valve to go to its
lowest setting. Check the manifold pressure on the
manometer. If the manifold pressure matches the Low
Setting value in the chart, skip to Step No. 4.
If the manifold pressure does not match the low (0%)
value on the chart, the ball valve will need to be
adjusted. Follow these steps:
a) While the unit is still ring at 0% modulation,
remove the ball valve actuator. To do this, locate
the screw on the rear of the actuator and remove
it. Loosen the actuator set screw (See FIGURE
18), and carefully remove the actuator by lifting it
straight up. Do not disconnect any wires.
b) Using adjustable pliers, slowly turn the ball valve
stem until the manifold pressure on the manometer
matches the low setting on the chart.
Important NOTE: If the valve is adjusted too far
closed and the ame goes out, let the unit recycle
and then manually open the ball valve to the 100%
open position noted in Step No. 2. When the unit
is ring at full re, re-attach the actuator to the ball
valve, and repeat the procedure beginning with
Step No. 2.
c) When the manometer readings match the values in
the chart and before re-installing the actuator, the
burr left on the ball valve stem from the previous
set screw setting needs to be removed. Either
lightly le the burr on the valve stem to prevent the
set screw from returning to the previous position
or remove the valve stem, rotate it 180° so that the
set screw contacts the opposite side of the stem,
and re-install the valve stem.
d) Re-install the actuator making sure it is level on the
ball valve mounting plate.
e) Re-check the setting by going to full re (Set
ModHeat at 100%) and returning to 0% modulation
(Set ModHeat at 0%). Measure the manifold
pressure. The adjusted gas pressure should be
close to the value in the chart on page 31. If not,
repeat the procedure.
4. When the settings are in agreement with the chart
and testing is complete, remove the manometer.
Set ModHeat to 100%. Scroll the display back to Test Mode and press Enter. Disable Test Mode by
pressing the INC button to change the command from
ON to OFF; and press Enter.
