SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installation and servicing of air-conditioning equipment can
be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical compo-
nents. Only trained and qualified service personnel should
install, repair, or service air-conditioning equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform the basic maintenance
functions of cleaning coils and filters and replacing filters.
All other operations should be performed by trained service
personnel. When working on air-conditioning equipment,
observe precautions in the literature, tags and labels
attached to the unit, and other safety precautions that may
apply.
Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work gloves.
Use quenching cloth for unbrazing operations. Have fire
extinguishers available for all brazing operations.
IMPORTANT: Units have high ambient operating limits. If
limits are exceeded, the units will automatically lock the
compressor out of operation. Manual reset will be required to
restart the compressor.
INSTALLATION
I. STEP 1 — PROVIDE UNIT SUPPORT
A. Roof Curb
Assemble or install accessory roof curb or horizontal supply
roof curb in accordance with instructions shipped with this
accessory. See Fig. 1 and 2. Install insulation, cant strips,
roofing, and counter flashing as shown. Ductwork can be
installed to roof curb or horizontal supply roof curb before
unit is set in place. (Instructions continued on page 3.)
WARNING: Before performing service or mainte-
nance operations on unit, turn off mail power switch to
unit. electrical shock could cause personal injury.
WARNING:
1. Improper installation, adjustment, alteration,
service, or maintenance can cause property
damage, personal injury, or loss of life. Refer to
the User’s Information Manual provided with
this unit for more details.
2. Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
What to do if you smell gas:
1. DO NOT try to light any appliance.
2. DO NOT touch any electrical switch, or use any
phone in your building.
3. IMMEDIATELY call your gas supplier from a
neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s
instructions.
4. If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the
fire department.
WARNING: Disconnect gas piping from unit when
pressure testing at pressure greater than 0.5 psig.
Pressures greater than 0.5 psig will cause gas valve
damage resulting in hazardous condition. If gas valve
is subjected to pressure greater than 0.5 psig, it must
be replaced before use. When pressure testing field-
supplied gas piping at pressures of 0.5 psig or less, a
unit connected to such piping must be isolated by clos-
ing the manual gas valve(s).

IMPORTANT: Curb or adapter roof curb must be level. This is
necessary to permit unit drain to function properly. Unit lev-
eling tolerance is ±1/16 in. per linear ft in any direction. Refer
to Accessory Roof Curb or Horizontal Supply Roof Curb
Installation Instructions for additional information as
required.
When accessory roof curb or horizontal supply roof curb is
used, unit may be installed on class A, B, or C roof covering
material.
IMPORTANT: The gasketing of the unit to the roof curb or
adapter roof curb is critical for a watertight seal. Install gas-
ket with the roof curb or adapter as shown in Fig. 1. Improp-
erly applied gasket can also result in air leaks and poor unit
performance.
B. Alternate Unit Support
When a curb or adapter cannot be used, install unit on a
noncombustible surface. Support unit with sleepers, using
unit curb support area. If sleepers cannot be used, support
long sides of unit with a minimum of 3 equally spaced 4-in. x
4-in. pads on each side.
II. STEP 2 — RIG AND PLACE UNIT
Inspect unit for transportation damage. File any claim with
transportation agency.
Do not drop unit; keep upright. Spreader bars are not
required if top crating is left on unit. Use spreader bars over
unit to prevent sling or cable damage. Rollers may be used to
move unit across a roof. Level by using unit frame as a refer-
ence; leveling tolerance is ± 1/16 in. per linear ft in any direc-
tion. See Fig. 3 for additional information. Unit operating
weight is shown in Table 1.
Four lifting holes are provided in ends of unit base rails as
shown in Fig. 3. Refer to rigging instructions on unit.
A. Positioning
Maintain clearance, per Fig. 4 and 5, around and above unit
to provide minimum distance from combustible materials,
proper airflow, and service access.
Do not install unit in an indoor location. Do not locate air
inlets near exhaust vents or other sources of contaminated
air. For proper unit operation, adequate combustion and ven-
tilation air must be provided in accordance with Section 5.3
(Air for Combustion and Ventilation) of the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 (American National Standards
Institute).
Although unit is weatherproof, guard against water from
higher level runoff and overhangs.
Locate mechanical draft system flue assembly at least 4 ft
from any opening through which combustion products could
enter the building, and at least 4 ft from any adjacent build-
ing. When unit is located adjacent to public walkways, flue
assembly must be at least 7 ft above grade.
B. Roof Mount
Check building codes for weight distribution requirements.

III. STEP 3 — FIELD FABRICATE DUCTWORK
On vertical units, secure all ducts to roof curb and building
structure. Do not connect ductwork to unit. Use flexible duct
connectors between unit and ducts as required. Adequately
insulate and weatherproof all ductwork located outdoors,
joints, and roof openings with counter flashing and mastic in
accordance with applicable codes. Insulate ducts passing
through unconditioned space, and use vapor barrier in accor-
dance with the latest issue of SMACNA (Sheet Metal and Air
Conditioning Contractors National Association) and ACCA
(Air Conditioning Contractors of America) minimum instal-
lation standards for heating and air conditioning systems.
Ducts passing through an unconditioned space must be insu-
lated and covered with a vapor barrier.
A minimum clearance to combustibles of 1 in. for the first
24 in. of ductwork is required for all units with electric heat.
Cabinet return-air static shall not exceed –0.35 in. wg with
economizer or –0.45 in. wg without economizer.
IV. STEP 4 — MAKE UNIT DUCT CONNECTIONS
Unit is shipped for thru-the-bottom duct connections. Duct-
work openings are shown in Fig. 1, 4, and 5. Duct
connections are shown in Fig. 6. Field-fabricated concentric
ductwork may be connected as shown in Fig. 7 and 8. Attach
all ductwork to roof curb and roof curb basepans. Refer to
installation instructions shipped with accessory roof curb for
more information.
V. STEP 5 — INSTALL FLUE HOOD AND WIND BAFFLE
Flue hood, screen, and wind baffle are shipped secured
under main control box. To install, secure flue hood and
screen to access panel with screws provided. See Fig. 9. The
wind baffle is then installed over the flue hood.
NOTE: When properly installed, flue hood will line up with
combustion fan housing. See Fig. 10.
WARNING: For vertical supply and return units,
tools or parts could drop into ductwork and cause an
injury. Install a 90 degree turn in the return ductwork
between the unit and the conditioned space. If a
90 degree elbow cannot be installed, then a grille of
sufficient strength and density should be installed to
prevent objects from falling into the conditioned space.

VI. STEP 6 — TRAP CONDENSATE DRAIN
See Fig. 4, 5, and 11 fore drain location. Plug is provided in
drain hole and must be removed when unit is operating. One
3/4 in. half coupling is provided inside unit evaporator section
for condensate drain connection. An 81/2 in. x 3/4 in. diameter
nipple and a 2 in. x 3/4 in. diameter pipe nipple are coupled to
standard 3/4 in. diameter elbow to provide a straight path
down through holes in unit base rails (see Fig. 11 and 12). A
trap at least 4 inches deep must be used.
VII. STEP 7 — INSTALL GAS PIPING
The gas supply pipe enters the unit through the 11/2 in.
diameter knockout provided. The gas connection to the unit
is made to the 3/4 in. FPT gas inlet on the gas manifold. Unit
is equipped for use with natural gas. Installation must con-
form with local building codes or, in the absence of local
codes, with the National Fuel Gas code, ANSI Z223.1.
Install field-supplied manual gas shutoff valve with a 1/8 in.
NPT pressure tap for test gage connection at unit. Field gas
piping must include sediment trap and union. See Fig. 13.
Install sediment trap in riser leading to heating section. This
drip leg functions as a trap for dirt and condensate. Install
trap where condensate cannot freeze. Install this sediment
trap by connecting a piping tee to riser leading to heating
section, so that straight-through section of tee is vertical.
Then, connect capped nipple into lower end of tee. Extend
capped nipple below level of gas controls.
IMPORTANT: Natural gas pressure at unit gas connection
must not be less than 5.5 in. wg or greater than 13.5 in. wg.
Size gas-supply piping for 0.5-in. wg maximum pressure
drop. Do not use supply pipe smaller than unit gas
connection.
VIII. STEP 8 — MAKE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
A. Field Power Supply
Unit is factory wired for voltage shown on unit nameplate.
When installing units, provide a disconnect per NEC
(National Electrical Code) requirements of adequate size
(Table 2).
All field wiring must comply with NEC and local require-
ments. Insulate low-voltage wires for highest voltage con-
tained within conduit when low-voltage control wires are run
in the same conduit as high-voltage wires.
WARNING: Do not pressure test gas supply while
connected to unit. Always disconnect union before
servicing.

Route power and ground lines through control box end panel
or unit basepan (see Fig. 4 and 5) to connections as shown on
unit wiring diagram and Fig. 14.
Field wiring must conform to temperature limitations for
type “T” wire. All field wiring must comply with NEC and
local requirements.
Transformer no. 1 is wired for 230-v unit. If 208/230-v unit is
to be run with 208-v power supply, the transformer must be
rewired as follows:
1. Remove cap from red (208 v) wire.
2. Remove cap from orange (230 v) spliced wire.
3. Replace orange wire with red wire.
4. Recap both wires.
IMPORTANT: BE CERTAIN UNUSED WIRES ARE
CAPPED. Failure to do so may damage the transformers.
Operating voltage to compressor must be within voltage
range indicated on unit nameplate. On 3-phase units, volt-
ages between phases must be balanced within 2%.
Unit failure as a result of operation on improper line voltage
or excessive phase imbalance constitutes abuse and may
cause damage to electrical components. Such operation
would invalidate any warranty.
B. Field Control Wiring
The unit must have a separate electrical service with a field-
supplied, waterproof, fused disconnect switch mounted at, or
within sight from, the unit. Refer to the unit rating plate for
maximum fuse/circuit breaker size and minimum circuit
amps (ampacity) for wire sizing. Be sure disconnect switch
does not obstruct unit rating plate.
The field-supplied disconnect switchbox may be mounted on
the unit over the high-voltage inlet hole in the control corner
panel.
Connect ground lead to chassis ground connection when
using separate ground wire. The unit has a terminal block
for field power connections. Install conduit connectors in side
panel power supply knockout openings indicated in Fig. 4
and 5. Route power lines through connector to unit control
box.
Install a Bryant approved accessory thermostat assembly
according to the installation instructions included with the
accessory. Locate thermostat assembly on a solid wall in the
conditioned space to sense average temperature.
Route thermostat cable or equivalent single leads of colored
wire from subbase terminals through conduit in unit to low-
voltage connections as shown on unit label wiring diagram
and in Fig. 15.
NOTE: For wire runs up to 50 ft, use no. 18 AWG (American
Wire Gage) insulated wire (35 C minimum). For 50 to 75 ft,
use no. 16 AWG insulated wire (35 C minimum). For over
75 ft, use no. 14 AWG insulated wire (35 C Minimum).
All wire larger than no. 18 AWG cannot be directly connected
at the thermostat and will require a junction box and splice
at the thermostat.
Set heat anticipator settings as follows:
The room thermostat heat anticipator must be properly
adjusted to ensure proper heating performance. Set the heat
anticipator to settings based on the table above, by using an
ammeter to determine the exact setting for stages 1 and 2.
Failure to make a proper heat anticipator adjustment may
result in improper operation, discomfort to the occupants of
the conditioned space, and inefficient energy utilization;
however, the required setting may be changed slightly to pro-
vide a greater degree of comfort for a particular installation.
Refer to Accessory Remote Control Panel instructions if
required.
STEP 9 — MAKE OUTDOOR-AIR INLET ADJUSTMENTS
A. Manual Outdoor-Air Damper
All units (except those equipped with a factory-installed
economizer) have a manual outdoor-air damper to provide
ventilation air.
Damper can be preset to admit up to 25% outdoor air into
return-air compartment. To adjust, loosen securing screws
and move damper to desired setting. Retighten screws to
secure damper (Fig. 16).
B. Optional Economizer
Economizer Motor Control Module (See Fig. 17-19)
The economizer control location is shown Fig. 17. For maxi-
mum benefit of outdoor air, set economizer motor control
module to the “D” setting (Fig. 18). The economizer motor
control module is located on the economizer motor. See
Fig. 19.
CAUTION: The correct power phasing is critical in
the operation of the scroll compressors. An incorrect
phasing will cause the compressor to rotate in the
wrong direction. This may lead to premature compres-
sor failure.
WARNING: The unit must be electrically grounded
in accordance with local codes and NEC ANSI/NFPA
70 (National Fire Protection Association).

NOTES:
1. In compliance with NEC requirements for multimotor and combination load equipment (refer
to NEC Articles 430 and 440), the overcurrent protective device for the unit shall be fuse or
HACR breaker. Canadian units may be fuse or circuit breaker.
2. Unbalanced 3-Phase Supply Voltage
Never operate a motor where a phase imbalance in supply voltage is greater than 2%.
Use
the following formula to determine the percent voltage imbalance.
% Voltage Imbalance
EXAMPLE: Supply voltage is 460-3-60.
AB = 452 v
BC = 464 v
AC = 455 v
= 457
Determine maximum deviation from average voltage.
(AB) 457 – 452 = 5 v
(BC) 464 – 457 = 7 v
(AC) 457 – 455 = 2 v
Maximum deviation is 7 v.
Determine percent voltage imbalance.
= 1.53%
This amount of phase imbalance is satisfactory as it is below the maximum allowable 2%.
IMPORTANT: If the supply voltage phase imbalance is more than 2%, contact your local electric
utility company immediately.

Use the following information and Start-Up Checklist on
page CL-1 to check out unit PRIOR to start-up.
I. UNIT PREPARATION
Check that unit has been installed in accordance with these
installation instructions and all applicable codes.
II. SERVICE VALVES
Ensure that the liquid line service valve is open. Damage to
the compressor could result if it is left closed.
III. COMPRESSOR MOUNTING
Compressors are internally spring mounted. Do not loosen or
remove compressor holddown bolts.
IV. REFRIGERANT SERVICE PORTS
Each refrigerant system has a total of 3 Schrader-type ser-
vice gage ports. One port is located on the suction line, one
on the compressor discharge line, and one on the liquid line.
In addition Schrader-type valves are located underneath the
low-pressure switches. Be sure that caps on the ports are
tight.
V. COMPRESSOR ROTATION
It is important to be certain the compressors are rotating in
the proper direction. To determine whether or not compres-
sors are rotating in the proper direction:
1. Connect service gages to suction and discharge pres-
sure fittings.
2. Energize the compressor.
3. The suction pressure should drop and the discharge
pressure should rise, as is normal on any start-up.
If the suction pressure does not drop and the discharge pres-
sure does not rise to normal levels:
1. Note that the evaporator fan is probably also rotating
in the wrong direction.
2. Turn off power to the unit.
3. Reverse any two of the incoming power leads.
4. Turn on power to the compressor.
The suction and discharge pressure levels should now move
to their normal start-up levels.
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the refrigerant
coils and electrical components, use recommended
screw sizes only. Use care when drilling holes.

*Standard low-medium static drive range is 873 to 1021 rpm. Alternate
high-static drive range is 1025 to 1200. Other rpms require a field-
supplied drive.
NOTES:
1. Maximum continuous bhp for the standard motor is 6.13. The maxi-
mum continuous watts is 5180. Do not adjust motor rpm such that
motor maximum bhp and/or watts is exceeded at the maximum
operating cfm.
2. Static pressure losses (i.e., economizer) must be added to external
static pressure before entering Fan Performance table.
3. Interpolation is permissible. Do not extrapolate.
4. Fan performance is based on wet coils, clean filters, and
casing losses. See Table 13 for accessory/FIOP static pressure
information.
5. Extensive motor and drive testing on these units ensures that the full
bhp and watts range of the motor can be utilized with confidence.
Using your fan motors up to the watts or bhp rating shown will not
result in nuisance tripping or premature motor failure. Unit warranty
will not be affected.
6. Use of a field-supplied motor may affect wiring size. Contact your
Bryant representative for details.

*Standard low-medium static drive range is 873 to 1021 rpm. Alternate
high-static drive range is 1025 to 1200. Other rpms require a field-
supplied drive.
NOTES:
1. Maximum continuous bhp for the standard motor is 6.13. The maxi-
mum continuous watts is 5180. Do not adjust motor rpm such that
motor maximum bhp and/or watts is exceeded at the maximum

2. Static pressure losses (i.e., economizer) must be added to external
static pressure before entering Fan Performance table.
3. Interpolation is permissible. Do not extrapolate.
4. Fan performance is based on wet coils, clean filters, and
casing losses. See Table 13 for accessory/FIOP static pressure
information.
5. Extensive motor and drive testing on these units ensures that the full
bhp and watts range of the motor can be utilized with confidence.
Using your fan motors up to the watts or bhp rating shown will not
result in nuisance tripping or premature motor failure. Unit warranty

XIII. GAS HEAT
Verify gas pressures before turning on heat as follows:
1. Turn off manual gas stop.
2. Connect pressure gage to supply gas pressure tap
(see Fig. 13).
3. Connect pressure gage to manifold pressure tap on
gas valve.
4. Turn on manual gas stop and set thermostat to
HEAT position. After the unit has run for several
minutes, verify that incoming pressure is 5.5 in. wg
or greater, and that the manifold pressure is
3.3 in. wg. If manifold pressure must be adjusted,
refer to Gas Valve Adjustment section on page 29.
5. After unit has been in operation for 5 minutes, check
temperature rise across the heat exchangers. See unit
informative plate for correct rise limits of the heat
supplied. Air quantities may need to be adjusted to
bring the actual rise to within the allowable limits.
XIV. BASE UNIT OPERATION
A. Cooling, Units Without Economizer
When thermostat calls for cooling, terminals G and Y1 are
energized. The indoor (evaporator) fan contactor (IFC) and-
compressor contactor no. 1 (C1) are energized and evapora-
tor-fan motor (IFM), compressor no. 1 and condenser fan
start. The condenser-fan motors run continuously while unit
is cooling. If the thermostat calls for a second stage of cooling
by energizing Y2, compressor contactor no. 2 (C2) is ener-
gized and compressor no. 2 starts.
B. Heating, Units Without Economizer
NOTE: The 581A155-240 units have 2 stages of heat.
When the thermostat calls for heating, power is sent to W on
the IGC (integrated gas unit controller) board. An LED
(light-emitting diode) on the IGC board will be on during
normal operation. A check is made to ensure that the rollout
switch and limit switch are closed and the induced-draft
motor is running. The induced-draft motor is then energized,
and when speed is proven with the hall effect sensor on the
motor, the ignition activation period begins. The burners will
ignite within 5 seconds.
If the burners do not light, there is a 22-second delay before
another 5-second attempt. If the burners still do not light,
this sequence is repeated for 15 minutes. After the 15 min-
utes have elapsed, if the burners still have not lighted, heat-
ing is locked out. To reset the control, break 24-v power to
the thermostat.
When ignition occurs the IGC board will continue to monitor
the condition of the rollout and limit switches, the hall effect
sensor, as well as the flame sensor. If the unit is controlled
through a room thermostat set for fan auto.,45 seconds after
ignition occurs, the indoor-fan motor will be energized (and
the outdoor-air dampers will open to their minimum posi-
tion). If for some reason the overtemperature limit opens
prior to the start of the indoor fan blower, on the next
attempt, the 45-second delay will be shortened to 5 seconds
less than the time from initiation of heat to when the limit
tripped. Gas will not be interrupted to the burners and heat-
ing will continue. Once modified, the fan on delay will not
change back to 45 seconds unless power is reset to the
control.
When additional heat is required, W2 closes and initiates
power to the second stage of the main gas valve. When the
thermostat is satisfied, W1 and W2 open and the gas valve
closes, interrupting the flow of gas to the main burners. If
the call for W1 lasted less than 1 minute, the heating cycle
will not terminate until 1 minute after W1 became active. If
the unit is controlled through a room thermostat set for fan
auto., the indoor-fan motor will continue to operate for an
additional 45 seconds then stop (and the outdoor-air damp-
ers will close). If the overtemperature limit opens after the
indoor motor is stopped within 10 minutes of W1 becoming
inactive, on the next cycle the time will be extended by
15 seconds. The maximum delay is 3 minutes. Once modi-
fied, the fan off delay will not change back to 45 seconds
unless power is reset to the control.
A LED indicator is provided on the IGC to monitor opera-
tion. The IGC is located by removing the side panel and
viewing the IGC through the view port located in the control
box access panel. See Fig. 28. During normal operation, the
LED is continuously on. See Table 15 for error codes.

NOTES:
1. There is a 3-second pause between error code displays.
2. If more than one error code exists, all applicable error codes will be
displayed in numerical sequence.
3. Error codes on the IGC will be lost if power to the unit is interrupted.
C. Cooling, Units With Economizer
Upon a call for cooling, when outdoor ambient is above the
changeover control setting, the economizer damper moves to
VENT position. The compressors and evaporator and con-
denser fans energize and operate as per Cooling, Units With-
out Economizer section on this page.
Upon a first call for cooling, when outdoor ambient is below
the changeover control setting, the evaporator fan starts and
the economizer is fully open. The compressors remain off.

Upon a second-stage call for cooling, compressor no. 1 is
energized and mechanical cooling is integrated with econo-
mizer cooling. If the outdoor-air temperature drops below
50 F, a cooling lockout switch prevents the compressors from
running.
When supply-air temperature drops below a fixed set point,
the economizer damper modulates to maintain the tempera-
ture at the fixed set point.
D. Freeze Protection Thermostats
A freeze protection thermostat is located on the top and bot-
tom of the evaporator coil. It detects frost build-up and locks
out the compressors, allowing the coil to clear. Once frost has
melted, the compressors can be reenergized by resetting the
compressor lockout.
E. Heating, Units With Economizer
Outdoor-air damper stays at VENT position while evapora-
tor fan is operating. Refer to Heating, Units without Econo-
mizer section on page 24 for heating sequence of operation.
SERVICE
I. CLEANING
Inspect unit interior at beginning of each heating and cooling
season and as operating conditions require. Remove unit top
panel and/or side panels for access to unit interior.
A. Evaporator Coil
Clean as required with commercial coil cleaner. Wash both
sides of coil and flush with clean water.
B. Condenser Coil
Clean condenser coil annually and as required by location
and outdoor-air conditions. Inspect coil monthly; clean as
required.
C. Condensate Drain
Check and clean each year at start of cooling season. In win-
ter, keep drains and traps dry.
D. Filters
Clean or replace at start of each heating and cooling season,
or more often if operating conditions require. Refer to Table 1
for type and size.
E. Outdoor-Air Inlet Screens
Clean screens with steam or hot water and a mild detergent.
Do not use throwaway filters in place of screens. See Table 1
for quantity and size.
F. Main Burner
At the beginning of each heating season, inspect for deterio-
ration or blockage due to corrosion or other causes. Observe
the main burner flames. Refer to Main Burners section on
page 29.
G. Flue Gas Passageways
The flue collector box and heat exchanger cells may be
inspected by removing heat exchanger access panel (Fig. 4
and 5), flue box cover, and main burner assembly (Fig. 28).
Refer to Main Burners section on page 29 for burner removal
sequence. If cleaning is required, remove heat exchanger baf-
fles and clean tubes with a wire brush.
Use caution with ceramic heat exchanger baffles. When
installing retaining clip, be sure the center leg of the clip
extends inward toward baffle. See Fig. 29.
H. Combustion-Air Blower
Clean periodically to assure proper airflow and heating effi-
ciency. Inspect blower wheel every fall and periodically dur-
ing heating season. For the first heating season, inspect
blower wheel bi-monthly to determine proper cleaning
frequency.
To inspect blower wheel, remove heat exchanger access
panel. Shine a flashlight into opening to inspect wheel. If
cleaning is required, remove motor and wheel assembly by
removing screws holding motor mounting plate to top of com-
bustion fan housing (Fig. 28). The motor and wheel assembly
will slide up and out of the fan housing. Remove the blower
wheel from the motor shaft and clean with a detergent or sol-
vent. Replace motor and wheel assembly.

II. LUBRICATION
A. Compressors
Each compressor is charged with the correct amount of oil at
the factory. Conventional white oil (Sontex 200LT) is used.
White oil is compatible with 3GS oil, and 3GS oil may be
used if the addition of oil is required. See compressor name-
plate for original oil charge. A complete recharge should be
four ounces less than the original oil charge When a com-
pressor is exchanged in the field it is possible that a major
portion of the oil from the replaced compressor may still be
in the system. While this will not affect the reliablity of the
replacement compressor, the extra oil will add rotor drag and
increase power usage. To remove this excess oil, an access
valve may be added to the lower portion of the suction line at
the inlet of the compressor. The compressor should then be
run for 10 minutes, shut down and the access valve opened
until no oil flows. This should be repeated twice to make sure
the proper oil level has been achieved.
B. Fan Shaft Bearings
For size 155 units, bearings are permanently lubricated. No
field lubrication is required. For size 180 and 240 units,
lubricate bearings at least every 6 months with suitable
bearing grease. Extended grease line is provided for far side
fan bearing (opposite drive side). Typical lubricants are
given below:
*Preferred lubricant because it contains rust and oxidation inhibitors.
C. Condenser and Evaporator-Fan Motor Bearings
The condenser- and evaporator-fan motors have
permanently sealed bearings, so no field lubrication is
necessary.

VII. ECONOMIZER ADJUSTMENT
See Tables 16 and 17 for checkout and outdoor air tempera-
ture simulation. Make certain the outdoor-air damper is
fully closed and the return-air damper is fully open before
completing the following steps:
1. Turn on power to the unit.
2. Turn the thermostat fan switch to the ON position.
The damper will go to the vent position.
3. Adjust the vent position with the minimum damper-
position adjustment on the economizer motor control
module. See Fig. 18.
4. Set the system selector switch to COOL position and
set the cooling temperature selector to its lowest
setting.
NOTE: The Cooling mode may also be simulated by
removing the thermostat wires from terminals Y1
and Y2 and installing a jumper between terminals R
and Y1. Refer to unit label diagram for terminal
locations.
Table 16 — Economizer Checkout Procedures
Table 17 — High and Low Outdoor-Air Simulation
5. Set the outdoor-air thermostat (OAT), located in the
economizer section of the unit (see Fig. 17) to 75 F.
6. If the outdoor temperature is below 75 F, the econo-
mizer will control the mixed air with the mixed-air
sensor. If the outdoor air is above 75 F, place a jumper
around the contacts of the OAT.
7. Jumper terminal T to terminal T1 on the module (see
Fig. 18). The economizer will go to the full open posi-
tion. The outdoor-air damper will go to the full open
position, and the return-air damper will go to the full
closed position.
8. Adjust mechanical linkage, if necessary, for correct
positioning. If may be necessary to remove the filters
to adjust the linkage.
9. Remove the jumper from around the contacts of the
OAT if installed in Step 6. Remove the jumper from
terminals T and T1 installed in Step 7.
10. If the Cooling mode was simulated to operate the unit
in Step 4, remove the jumper and reconnect the ther-
mostat wires to terminals Y1 and Y2.
VIII. POWER FAILURE
Dampers have a spring return. In event of power failure,
dampers will return to fully closed position until power is
restored. Do not manually operate damper motor.
IX. REFRIGERANT CHARGE
Amount of refrigerant charge is listed on unit nameplate and
in Table 1. Refer to Carrier GTAC II; Module 5; Charging,
Recovery, Recycling, and Reclamation section for charging
methods and procedures. Unit panels must be in place when
unit is operating during charging procedure.
NOTE: Do not use recycled refrigerant as it may contain
contaminants.
A. No Charge
Use standard evacuating techniques. After evacuating sys-
tem, weigh in the specified amount of refrigerant (refer to
Table 1).
B. Low Charge Cooling
Using appropriate cooling charging chart (see Fig. 35), add
or remove refrigerant until conditions of the chart are met.
Note that charging chart is different from those normally
used. An accurate pressure gage and temperature-sensing
device is required. Charging is accomplished by ensuring the
proper amount of liquid sub-cooling. Measure liquid line
pressure at the liquid line service valve using pressure gage.
Connect temperature sensing device to the liquid line near
the liquid line service valve and insulate it so that outdoor
ambient temperature does not affect reading.
C. To Use the Cooling Charging Chart
Use the above temperature and pressure readings, and find
the intersection point on the cooling charging chart. If inter-
section point on chart is above line, add refrigerant. If inter-
section point on chart is below line, carefully recover some of
the charge. Recheck suction pressure as charge is adjusted.
NOTE: Indoor-air CFM must be within normal operating
range of unit. All outdoor fans must be operating.
The TXV (thermostatic expansion valve) is set to maintain
between 15 and 20 degrees of superheat at the compressors.
The valves are factory set and should not require
re-adjustment.

5. Reinstall burners on rack.
6. Reinstall burner rack as described above.
XII. FILTER DRIER
Replace whenever refrigerant system is exposed to
atmosphere.
XIII. PROTECTIVE DEVICES
A. Compressor Protection
Overcurrent
Each compressor has internal line break motor protection.
Overtemperature
Each compressor has an internal protector to protect it
against excessively high discharge gas temperatures.
Crankcase Heater
The 581A units are equipped with a 70-watt crankcase
heater to prevent absorption of liquid refrigerant by oil in
the crankcase when the compressor is idle. The crankcase
heater is energized whenever there is main power to the unit
and the compressor is not energized.
IMPORTANT: After prolonged shutdown or servicing, ener-
gize the crankcase heaters for 24 hours before starting the
compressors.
Compressor Lockout
If any of the safeties (high-pressure, low-pressure, freeze
protection thermostat, compressor internal thermostat) trip,
or if there is loss of power to the compressors, the cooling
lockout (CLO) will lock the compressors off. To reset, manu-
ally move the thermostat setting.
B. Evaporator Fan Motor Protection
On size 155 units, an internal protector with auto-reset is
included in the indoor fan motor as a protection against
overcurrent.
On size 180 and 240 units, a manual reset, calibrated trip,
magnetic circuit breaker protects against overcurrent. Do
not bypass connections or increase the size of the breaker to
correct trouble. Determine the cause and correct it before
resetting the breaker.

C. Condenser-Fan Motor Protection
Each condenser-fan motor is internally protected against
overtemperature.
D. High- and Low-Pressure Switches
If either switch trips, or if the compressor overtemperature
switch activates, that refrigerant circuit will be automati-
cally locked out by the CLO. To reset, manually move the
thermostat setting.
E. Freeze Protection Thermostat (FPT)
An FPT is located on the top and bottom of the evaporator
coil. They detect frost build-up and turn off the compressor,
allowing the coil to clear. Once the frost has melted, the com-
pressor can be reenergized by resetting the compressor
lockout.
XIV. RELIEF DEVICES
All units have relief devices to protect against damage from
excessive pressures (i.e., fire). These devices protect the high
and low side.
XV. CONTROL CIRCUIT, 24-V
This control circuit is protected against overcurrent by a
3.2 amp circuit breaker. Breaker can be reset. If it trips,
determine cause of trouble before resetting
XVI. REPLACEMENT PARTS
A complete list of replacement parts may be obtained from
any Carrier distributor upon request.

Burners will not ignite. Misaligned spark electrodes. Check flame ignition and sensor electrode positioning. Adjust
as needed.
No gas at main burners. Check gas line for air; purge as necessary. After purging gas
line of air, allow gas to dissipate for at least 5 minutes before
attempting to relight unit.
Check gas valve.
Water in gas line. Drain water and install drip leg to trap water.
No power to furnace. Check power supply, fuses, wiring, and circuit breaker.
No 24 v power supply to control circuit. Check transformer. Transformers with internal overcurrent
protection require a cool-down period before resetting. Check
24-v circuit breaker; reset if necessary.
Miswired or loose connections. Check all wiring and wire nut connections.
Burned-out heat anticipator in thermostat. Replace thermostat.
Broken thermostat wires. Run continuity check. Replace wires if necessary.
Inadequate heating. Dirty air filter. Clean or replace filter as necessary.
Gas input to unit too low. Check gas pressure at manifold. Clock gas meter for input.
If too low, increase manifold pressure or replace with correct
orifices.
Unit undersized for application. Replace with proper unit or add additional unit.
Restricted airflow. Clean filter, replace filter, or remove any restrictions.
Blower speed too low. Install alternate motor, if applicable, or adjust pulley to increase
fan speed.
Limit switch cycles main burners. Check rotation of blower, thermostat heat anticipator settings,
and temperature rise of unit. Adjust as needed.
Too much outdoor air. Adjust minimum position.
Check economizer operation.
Poor flame characteristics. Incomplete combustion (lack of combustion air)
results in:
Aldehyde odors, CO, sooting flame, or floating
flame.
Check all screws around flue outlets and burner compartment.
Tighten as necessary.
Cracked heat exchanger.
Overfired unit — reduce input, change orifices, or adjust gas
line or manifold pressure.
Check vent for restriction. Clean as necessary.
Check orifice to burner alignment.
Burners will not turn off. Unit is locked into Heating mode for a one minute
minimum. Wait until mandatory one minute time period has elapsed or
power to unit.
