Installation
Clearances
Provide enough space around the unit to allow unrestricted access to all ser­vice points. Refer to Figure 1 through Figure 4 for unit dimensions and mini­mum required service and free air clearances. Observe the following points to insure proper unit operation.
A. Do not install the unit under a low overhang. Condenser discharge must not be restricted. See Notes in Figure 1 through Figure 4.
NOTICE: Do not obstruct condenser discharge air. This can result in warm air recirculation through the coil.
B. Do not locate the unit in a position where runoff water can fall into the fan discharge openings.
C. Condenser intake air is supplied from three or four sides of the unit. Adhere to the minimum required clearances given in Figure 1 through Figure 4.
Unit Mounting
Rooftop Mounting: If the unit will be
roof mounted, determine for certain that the structure is strong enough to support the unit and any required accessories. Unit weights are given in Table 2. The unit should be elevated on a level, field fabricated four-inch steel or wood 4" x 4" mounting frame. Complete the frame and secure it into position before lifting the unit to the roof. The mounting frame must sup port a minimum of three of the unit’s four sides and should span roof sup­ports to distribute the load on the roof.
-
Figure 5 Roof Mounted Unit
WARNING
Structural Failure! Ensure that the roof structure supports are strong enough to support the weight of the unit and any accessories. Failure to do this could result in death or seri ous injury due to structural fail­ure and could seriously damage the unit and the building.
Ground Level Mounting
“For ground level installation, the unit base should be adequately supported and hold the unit near level. The installation must meet the guidelines set forth in local codes.” The support should extend two inches beyond the unit base channels at all points. The unit and support must be isolated from any adjacent structure to prevent possible noise or vibration problems. Any ground level location must com ply with required clearances given in Figure 1 through Figure 4.
-
-
Holes must be made in the structure to run refrigerant lines. For the major ity of ground-level installations, the holes can be made in the header that rests on top of the foundation. Alter natively, these holes may also be made in the foundation itself. On roof­mounted units, refrigerant lines should enter the building as close to the unit as possible; preferably within three to four inches of the refrigerant connection on the unit, plus a six-inch (long radius) 90 degree "L" entering the building (See Figure 5).

Refrigerant Piping Procedures (Outdoor Units)
Each CTA unit ships with a holding charge of dry nitrogen. The nitrogen should be removed and the entire sys tem evacuated (at the proper time) to avoid possible contamination.
1. Remove the service access panel.
2. Locate the liquid and discharge lines. Check that the piping connec­tion stubs on the valves (Figure 6) line up properly with the holes in the unit cabinet.
Figure 6
4. Unbraze the tube seal caps to reveal the line braze connections.
WARNING:
Hazardous Pressures! Coil has a nitrogen holding
-
charge. Do not remove seal caps by heating the caps while coil is under pressure. Depress the gauge port valve cores to gradu ally relieve nitrogen holding charge. Remove valve cores before removing the tubing seal caps. Failure to properly relieve pressure could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION:
Equipment Damage! Do not remove the seal caps from refrigerant connections until pre pared to braze refrigerant lines to the connections. Excessive expo­sure to atmosphere may allow moisture or dirt to contaminate the system, damaging valve seals and causing ice formation in sys tem components.
above the maximum recom mended unit test pressure as specified in applicable unit litera­ture. Failure to properly regulate pressure could result in a violent explosion, which could result in death or serious injury or equip ment or property-only-damage.
CAUTION:
-
Equipment Damage! Wet-wrap all valves and protect painted surfaces from excessive heat. Heat can damage system components and the unit finish.

Installation
WARNING:
Hazardous Pressures! Coil has a nitrogen holding charge. Do not remove seal caps by heating the caps while coil is under pressure. Depress the gauge port valve cores to gradu­ally relieve nitrogen holding charge. Remove valve cores before removing the tubing seal caps. Failure to properly relieve pressure could result in death or serious injury.
1. Remove both seal caps from the
indoor unit connection stubs.
CAUTION:
Equipment Damage! Do not remove the seal caps from refrigerant connections until pre pared to braze refrigerant lines to the connections. Excessive expo­sure to atmosphere may allow moisture or dirt to contaminate the system, damaging valve seals and causing ice formation in sys tem components.
2. Turn nitrogen supply on. Nitrogen
enters through liquid line gauge port.
WARNING:
Hazard of Explosion and Deadly Gases! Never solder, braze or weld on refrigerant lines or any unit com ponents that are above atmo­spheric pressure or where refrigerant may be present. Always remove refrigerant by fol lowing the guidelines estab­lished by the EPA Federal Clean Air Act or other state or local codes as appropriate. After refrig erant removal, use dry nitrogen to bring system back to atmospheric pressure before opening system
for repairs. Mixtures of refriger­ants and air under pressure may become combustible in the pres­ence of an ignition source leading to an explosion. Excessive heat from soldering, brazing or weld­ing with refrigerant vapors present can form highly toxic gases and extremely corrosive acids. Failure to follow all proper safe refrigerant handling prac tices could result in death or seri­ous injury.
3. Braze the liquid line connections.
4. Open the gauge port on the dis­charge line and then braze the dis­charge line to the connection stub. Nitrogen will bleed out the open gauge port on the discharge line.
5. Shut off nitrogen supply.
-
Leak Check
After the brazing operation of the out­door and indoor refrigerant lines is complete, check the field brazed con nections for leaks. Pressurize the sys­tem through the gauge port with dry
-
nitrogen to 200 psi. Use soap bubbles or other leak-checking methods to ensure that all field joints are leak free. If not, release pressure, repair and repeat the leak test.
System Evacuation
1. After completion of leak check,
replace suction, liquid and dis charge valve cores, and evacuate the system.
2. Attach appropriate hoses from the
-
manifold gauge to suction and dis­charge line gauge ports.
Note: Unnecessary switching of hoses can be avoided and complete evacua
-
tion of lines leading to a sealed sys­tem can be accomplished with manifold center hose and connecting branch hose to cylinder of R-410A and
-
vacuum pump.
3. Attach center hose of manifold
gauges to the vacuum pump.
4. Evacuate the system to hold a 350 micron vacuum.
5. Close off the valve to the vacuum pump and observe the micron gauge. If gauge pressure rises above 500 microns in one (1) minute, evacuation is incomplete or the system has a leak.
6. If vacuum gauge does not rise
-
-
-
above 500 microns in one (1) minute, the evacuation should be complete.
7. With vacuum pump and micron gauge blanked off, open the valve on R-410A cylinder and allow refrig­erant pressure to build up to 100 psig.
8. Close valve on the R-410A supply cylinder. Close valves on the mani­fold gauge. Set and remove the refrigerant charging hoses from the discharge and suction gauge ports.
9. Leak test the entire system. Using proper procedures and caution, repair any leaks found and repeat the leak test.
Refrigerant Charging Procedure
If charging by weight, refer to refriger­ant charges that are provided in Table
3. If additional refrigerant is needed
because of length of line, calculate the requirements using Table 4. Charge by weight through the gauge port on the suction line in the indoor unit. When charging is complete, replace the cap on the gauge port.
Insulating and Isolating Refrigerant Lines
Insulate the entire discharge line with refrigerant piping insulation. Also
-
insulate any portion of the liquid line exposed to temperature extremes. Insulate and isolate liquid and dis charge lines from each other. Isolate refrigerant lines from the structure and any ductwork.
Note: To prevent possible noise or vibration, be certain to isolate refriger­ant lines from the building.

System Pre-Start Procedure
Unit Start-Up
Once the unit is properly installed and pre-start procedures are complete, start the unit by turning the System Switch on the indoor ther­mostat to either HEAT, COOL or AUTO. The system should operate normally.
Sequence of Operation
General
Operation of the system cooling (and optional heating) cycles is controlled by the position of the system switch on the room thermostat. Once the system switch is placed in either the HEAT or COOL position, unit opera tion is automatic. The optional auto­matic changeover thermostat, when in the AUTO position, automatically changes to heat or cool with sufficient room temperature change.
Evaporator Fan (Indoor Supply Air)
The evaporator fan is controlled by an ON/AUTO switch on the room ther­mostat. With the switch positioned at AUTO and the system operating in the cooling mode, fan operation coin cides with the cooling run cycles. If the system is equipped with heat and is operating in the heating mode while the fan switch is at AUTO, fan operation coincides with the heating run cycles. When the fan switch is positioned at ON, fan operation is continuous.
-
Cooling Mode
When the room thermostat system switch is positioned at COOL and the fan switch is at AUTO, the condenser fan relay energizes on a call for cool ing. When the contacts of the con­denser fan relay close, operation of the condenser fan begins. The evapo­rator fan contactor also energizes on a call for cooling and initiates evapora tor fan operation.
On units with dual circuits, the second stage of cooling is initiated as a result of the 2-stage thermostat calling for additional cooling.
