Many service problems can be avoided by taking adequate precautions to provide an internally clean and dry system, and by using procedures and materials that conform with established
standards.
Hard drawn copper tubing should be used where no apprecia
ble amount of bending around pipes or other obstructions in
necessary. Use long radius ells wherever possible. If soft cop
per is used, care should be taken to avoid sharp bends which
may cause a restriction.
Pack fiber glass insulation and a sealing material such as Per
magum around refrigerant lines where they penetrate a wall to
reduce vibration and to retain some flexibility.
Support all refrigerant lines at minimum intervals (8 ft./2.4m)
with suitable hangers, brackets or clamps.
Braze all copper to copper joints witH Sil-Fos 5 or equivalent
brazing material. Do not use soft solder.
Never braze or solder liquid and suction lines together. The
complete suction line should be insulated with no less the
1
(12mm) ARMAFLEX or equivalent. If the liquid line is installed
in warm space, it must be insulated.
If it is desirable to tape or wire the liquid and suction lines to
gether for support purposes, they must be completely insulated
from each other.
INSTALLING REFRIGERANT MAINS
The units are evacuated and dehydrated at the factory and
shipped with a holding charge (1 lb./2.2kg) of Refrigerant-22.
The suction and liquid connections are sealed with copper
disks.
WARNING: Provisions for recovering refrigerant releases
must be available during all phases of installation,
leak testing and charging. Do NOT release refrigerant into theatmosphere. ASchrader valve is provided for refrigerant recovery.
If the unit has already lost its holding charge, it should be leak
tested and the necessary repairs should be made. If the unit
has maintained its holding charge, you can assume that it has
no leaks and proceed with the installation.
Make sure the refrigerant in the lines has been recovered, then
drill a small hole through the discs to prevent any internal pres
sure from blowing them off and to allow the flow of dry nitrogen
through the connections when unbrazing the closures.
NOTE: To minimize the possibility of system failure due to dirt
and moisture, a filter-drier must be installed in each
liquid line as close to the evaporator as possible.
Filter-driers are not supplied with theevaporator blow
ers. They are supplied with the matching condensing
"
2
sections.
The temperature required to make or break a brazed
joint is sufficiently high to cause oxidation of the copper
-
unless an inert atmosphere is provide.
CAUTION: Dry nitrogen should flow through a brazed joint at
all times when heat is being applied and until the
joint has cooled.
The liquid, suction and drain connections inside the unit
must be piped to the outside. Refer to Unit Dimensions
for locations and dimensions of these connection.
-

550.39-N4YI
Before brazing the refrigerantlines tothese connections,
remove the short panel from the unit frame and slide it
(along with the grommets) onto the refrigerant lines. Af
ter the brazed joints have cooled, slide the panel back
into place and secure it to the unit frame.
NOTE: These units can only be piped from one side of
the unit.
EXPANSION VALVE BULB
On KEU090 units the expansion valve bulb must be fas
tened in a 4o'clock positionto thesuction lineoutside the
cabinet after the piping connections have been made.
On KEU120 units fasten the expansion valve bulb on the
suction header 8" (203mm) below the top of the header
and adjacent to the coil.
Use the clamps provided with the valve to secure the
bulb in position.
DRAIN CONNECTION
The drain line MUST be trapped because the coil is lo
cated on the negative side of the supply air blower. It
must also be protected from freezing temperatures.
7
A
" (22.2mm) OD stub connection is provided within
8
the cabinet on both ends of the condensate drain pan for
either left hand or right hand piping connections. Refer to
Figure 5 for recommended drain piping.
The drain line is located on the same end of the coil section as the refrigerant connections. The line should be insulated where moisture drippage will be objectionable or
cause damage to the area. Seal the unused drain connection with a suitable mastic.
NOTE: Refer to Figure 9 for minimum clearance require
ments.
-
SUPPLY AIR BLOWER ADJUSTMENT
The RPM of the supply air blower will depend on the re
quired airflow, the unit accessories and the static resis
tances of both the supply and the return air duct
systems. With this information, the RPM for the supply
air blower can be determined from the blower perform
ance in Table 4.
-
Knowing the required blower RPM and the blower motor HP,
the setting (turns open) for the supply air motor pulley can be
determined from Table 3.
Each motor pulley has:
1. A threaded barrel with two flats (or notched recesses) 180
degrees apart.
2. A movable flange with one set screw.
After the movable flange has been rotated to the proper
number of “turns open”, the set screw should be tight
ened against the flat on the barrel to lock the movable
flange in place. If the pulley includes a locking collar, the
locking collar must be loosened to adjust the setting of
the movable flange.
Note the following:
1. The supply airflow must be within the limitations shown in
Table 1.
2. All pulleys can be adjusted in half-turn increments.
3. The tension on the belt should be adjusted for a deflection
3
of
" (5mm) per foot (305mm) of belt span with an applied
16
force of approximately 3 lbs (1.4kg). This adjustment is
made by moving the blower motor mounting plate. Refer to
Figure 6. Turning the adjustment bolt (B) moves the motor
mounting plate up or down. Note - Never loosen the two
nuts (C). Four hex nuts (A) have to be loosed to move the
mounting plate and retightened after the mounting plate
has been moved to the proper position.
-
-
-
-
-
4. All pulleys are factory aligned.
5. All supply air motor pulleys are factory set at three “turns
(76)
open.”
After the supply air blower motor is operating, adjust the
(64)
resistances in both the supply and the return duct sys
tems to balance the air distribution throughout the condi
tioned space. The job specifications may require that
this balancing be done by someone otherthan theequip
ment installer.
FIG. 5 - RECOMMENDED DRAIN PIPING
The 3" (76mm) dimension must equal or exceed the
negative static pressure developed by the supply air
blower. If it does not, condensate will not drain properly
and may overflow the drainpan. The trap mustbe atleast

ating conditions, especially during blower start-up.
6Unitary Products Group
To check the supply air airflow after the the initial balancing has
been completed:
1. Drill two holes
Figure 8.
2. Insert at least 8" (200mm) of
-
each of these holes for sufficient penetration into the air
flow on both sides of the evaporator coil.
NOTE: The tubes must be inserted and held in a position per
pendicular to the air flow so that velocity pressure will
not affect the static pressure reading.

3. Using an inclined manometer, determine the pressure drop
across a dry evaporator coil. Since the moisture on an
evaporator coil may vary greatly, measuring the pressure
drop across a wet coil under field conditions would be inac
curate. To assure a dry coil, the refrigerant system should
be de-energized while the test is being run.
After readings have been obtained, remove the tubes and seal
up the drilled holes in the side panel with
plugs (P/N 029-13880) available through normal parts ordering
procedure.

4. Knowing the pressure drop across a dry coil, the actual air
flow through the unit can be determined from the curve in
Figure 7.
If the airflow is above or below the specified valve, the supply
air motor pulley may have to be readjusted. After one hour of
operation, check the belt and pulleys for tightness and align
ment.
WARNING: Failure to properly adjust the total system air quan
tity can result in extensive blower damage.
