Installation and servicing of air-conditioning equipment can

be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical

components. Only trained and qualified service personnel

should install, repair, or service air-conditioning equipment.

Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance func-

tions such as cleaning coils and filters and replacing filters. All

other operations should be performed by trained service per-

sonnel. 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.

hnproper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, main-

tenance, or use can cause explosion, fire, electrical shock or

other conditions which may cause personal injury or property

damage. Consult a qualified installer, service agency, or a local

distributor or branch for information or assistance. The

qualified installer or agency must use factory-authorized kits or

accessories when modifying this product. Refer to the individ-

ual instructions packaged with the kits or accessories when

installing.

Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work

gloves. Use quenching cloth for brazing operations. Have fire

extinguisher available. Read these instructions thoroughly and

follow all warnings or cautions attached to the unit. Consult

local building codes and the National Electrical Code (NEC)

for special installation requirements.

Understand the signal words -- DANGER, WARNING,

and CAUTION. DANGER identifies the most serious hazards

which will result in severe personal injury or death.

WARNING signifies hazards that could result in personal inju-

ry or death. CAUTION is used to identify unsafe practices,

which would result in minor personal injury or product and

property damage.

INSTALLATION

Step 1ECheck Jobsite EInstallation, operation and

maintenance instructions are provided with each unit. Before

unit start-up, read all manuals and become familiar with the

unit and its operation. Thoroughly check out the system before

operation. Complete the inspections and instructions listed

below to prepare a unit for installation. See Table 1 for unit

physical data.

IMPORTANT: This equipment is designed for indoor

installation ONLY. Extreme variations in temperature,

humidity and corrosive water or air will adversely affect

the unit performance, reliability and service life.

The 50VS units are designed for indoor installations. Units

are typically installed in a floor-level closet or a small mechan-

ical room. Be sure to allow adequate space around the unit for

servicing. See Fig. 1-5 for unit dimensions.

To avoid equipment damage, do not use units as a source of

heating or cooling during the construction process. The

mechanical components and filters used in these units

quickly becomes clogged with construction dirt and debris

which may cause system damage.

Step 2-- Check Unit -- Upon receipt of shipment at

the jobsite, carefully check the shipment against the bill of

lading. Make sure all units have been received. Inspect the car-

ton or crating of each unit, and inspect each unit for damage.

Ensure the shipping company makes proper notation of any

shortages or damage on all copies of the freight bill. Concealed

damage not discovered during unloading must be reported to

the shipping company within 15 days of receipt of shipment.

NOTE: It is the responsibility of the purchaser to file all

necessary claims with the shipping company.

1. Be sure that the location chosen for unit installation pro-

vides ambient temperatures maintained above freezing.

Well water applications are especially susceptible to

freezing.

2. Be sure the installation location is isolated from sleeping

areas, private offices and other acoustically sensitive

spaces.

NOTE: A sound control accessory package may be used

to help eliminate sound in sensitive spaces.

3. Check local codes to be sure a secondary drain pan is not

required under the unit.

4. Be sure unit is mounted at a height sufficient to provide

an adequate slope of the condensate lines. If an appropri-

ate slope cannot be achieved, a field-supplied condensate

pump may be required.

5. Provide sufficient space for duct connection. Do not

allow the weight of the ductwork to rest on the unit.

6. Provide adequate clearance for filter replacement and

drain pan cleaning. Do not allow piping, conduit, etc. to

block filter access.

7. Provide sufficient access to allow maintenance and

servicing of the fan and fan motor, compressor and coils.

Removal of the entire unit from the closet should not be

necessary.

8. Provide an unobstructed path to the unit within the closet

or mechanical room. Space should be sufficient to allow

removal of unit if necessary.

9. Provide ready access to water valves and fittings, and

screwdriver access to unit side panels, discharge collar,

and all electrical connections.

10. Where access to side panels is limited, pre-removal of the

control box side mounting screws may be necessary for

future servicing.

STORAGE -- If the equipment is not needed ilmnediately at

the jobsite, it should be left in its shipping carton and stored in a

clean, dry area of the building or in a warehouse. Units must be

stored in an upright position at all times. If carton stacking is

necessary, stack units a maximum of 3 cartons high. Do not re-

move any equipment from its shipping package until it is need-

ed for installation.

PROTECTION -- Once the units are properly positioned on

the jobsite, cover them with either a shipping carton, vinyl fihn,

or an equivalent protective covering. Cap open ends of pipes

stored on the jobsite. This precaution is especially flnportant in

areas where painting, plastering, or spraying of fireproof lnate-

rial, etc. is not yet complete. Foreign material that accumulates

within the units can prevent proper start-up and necessitate

costly clean-up operations.

Before installing any of the system components, be sure to

examine each pipe, fitting, and valve, and remove any dirt or

foreign material found in or on these components.

DO NOT store or install units in corrosive enviromnents or

in locations subject to temperature or humidity extremes

(e.g., attics, garages, rooftops, etc.). Corrosive conditions

and high temperature or humidity can significantly reduce

performance, reliability, and service life. Always move

units in an upright position. Tilting units on their sides may

cause equipment damage.

INSPECT UNIT -- To prepare the unit for installation, com-

plete the procedures listed below:

1. Compare the electrical data on the unit nameplate with

ordering and shipping information to verify that the

correct unit has been shipped.

Do not remove the packaging until the unit is ready for

installation.

Verify that the unit's refrigerant robing is free of kinks or

dents, and that it does not touch other unit components.

Inspect all electrical connections. Be sure connections are

clean and tight at their terminations.

Remove any blower support cardboard from inlet of the

blower.

Locate and verify any accessory kit located in compressor

and/or blower section.

Remove any access panel screws that may be difficult to

remove once unit is installed.

Step 3_Locate Unit _ The following guidelines

should be considered when choosing a location for a WSHP:

•Units are for indoor use only.

• Locate in areas where ambient temperatures are between

39 F and 102 F and relative humidity is no greater than

75%.

Provide sufficient space for water, electrical and duct

connections.

Locate unit in an area that allows easy access and removal

of filter and access panels.

Allow enough space for service personnel to perform

maintenance.

Return air must be able to freely enter the space if unit needs

to be installed in a confined area such as a closet.

Step 4_Install Drywall _All rough-in instructions

ar 5

and drawings e designed for a single layer of /s in- thick dry-

wall. Refer to Fig. 6. Rough-in dimensions will be affected if

drywall thickness is different than 5/8 in., the return panel will

not fit snugly to the wall and form a tight seal. Install drywall

using conventional construction methods. Drywall cannot be

fastened to the studs with adhesive alone; a mechanical fasten-

er such as drywall screws must be used.

Vacuum all drywall dust and construction debris from coils,

drain pans and blower discharge plenum after cutting out sup-

ply and return holes for grilles. When installation is complete,

cover cabinet supply and return air openings.

Do not allow paint or wall texture over-spray to contact coil,

fan or other unit components. Warranties are void if paint or

other foreign debris is allowed to contaminate internal unit

components.

Step 5-- Install Cabinet and Riser

SYSTEM PIPING ARRANGEMENTS -- Figure 7 shows

some of the colmnon piping layouts for water source heat

pumps. 2-pipe systems are depicted but the same methods can

be applied to 4-pipe systems.

The direct return system shows the most common piping ar-

rangement. This is the most cost effective method of piping to

install since the water is supplied and returned to a riser column

at the same place, at the bottom or top of the building. Howev-

er, this type of system requires more effort to individually bal-

ance water flow to the units. The risers are normally capped at

the ends opposite the main supply and return piping and may

require a field-installed flush and vent loop.

The first reverse return system shows a system, which is

commonly used to minimize individual unit water flow balanc-

ing and is often referred to as "self balancing." This riser ar-

rangement has a natural affinity to balance the flow to each unit

in the riser column. However, individual unit balancing may

still be required. This piping system is used on 2-pipe systems

only and has an individual return for each riser column.

The second reverse return system shows a system with a

common reverse return riser installed separately from the

individual unit riser columns. This riser arrangement allows for

more flexibility in individual unit riser sizing but has the same

general characteristics as the "reverse return" system described

above. It may also be a better fit for the particular structural and

architectural requirements of the building. This piping system

may also be used on 4-pipe systems.

Regardless of the system selected, optimum performance

can only be achieved through adjustlnent to the recommended

water flow at each individual unit (see Table 1 for individual

unit water flow requirements).

RISER MATERIAL, SIZING, AND INSULATION --

Some of the factors affecting riser application and sizing are

noise, tube erosion and economics. Water source heat pumps

maybe supplied with factory-installed risers; the riser material,

diameter, length and insulation thickness must be determined

for each unit based on its positioning within the building.

Figure 8 displays riser robe diameter sizes as a function of flow

(gpm), friction loss and water velocity. For maxilnum riser

velocity on pressure drop per 100 ft, refer to ASHRAE (Amer-

ican Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning

Engineers) Fundamentals Handbook for Riser Sizing. Gener-

ally, riser copper type, size, length and insulation thickness are

determined by the location of the water source heat pump unit

in the building. Chilled water and hot water risers are available

in Type-M, Type-L copper, varying diameters from 3/4 to

21/2 in., and with either no insulation, 1/2 or 3/4 in. thick closed

cell foam insulation. Condensate risers are available in Type-M

copper, varying diameters from 3/4 to 11/4 in., and with no

insulation, 1/2 or 3/4 in. thick closed cell foam insulation. All

factory-supplied risers and riser extensions are insulated for the

full length of the riser, eliminating the need for field insulation.

Insulation is not required on loop water piping except where

the piping runs through unheated areas, outside the building or

when the loop water temperature is below the minimum

expected dew point of the pipe ambient conditions. Insulation

is required if loop water temperature drops below the dew

point (insulation is required for the ground loop applications in

most clilnates).

Riser sizing is generally based on the water flow require-

ments of each unit and the units on higher and lower floors that

tie into the same riser column depending on the piping system

chosen. Water piping is often designed at approximately 5 ft/s.

Keeping this in mind, risers can be reduced in size as the water

flow decreases froln floor to floor. For low-rise buildings, riser

sizes can be of a single diameter.

The reduced material handling on site will often offset the

extra costs associated with the larger risers.

RISER EXPANSION- Generally, in medium to high-rise

buildings, allowances must be made for pipe expansion. In ap-

plications supplemented with factory (or field) supplied be-

tween the floor riser extensions, assemble and install exten-

sions before installing cabinet.

NOTE: Riser assemblies are designed to accommodate a

maximum of 11/8 in. expansion and contraction up to a total

movement of 21/4 inches. If the total calculated rise expansion

exceeds 21/4 in., expansion devices must be used (field

provided).

Fig. 7 -- System Piping Arrangements

All riser modifications necessitated by variations in flooPto-

floor dimensions including cutting off or extending risers is the

sole responsibility of the installing contractor.

Additional expansion compensation must be made in the

riser system in the field where movement is expected to exceed

the factory allowances. Figure 9 displays the expansion charac-

teristics of risers compared to water temperature differential.

Assuming a lninimum water temperature of 20 F and a

maxilnum water temperature of 120 K the temperature differ-

ence of 100 F indicates 90 feet of riser will expand or contract

1 inch. To eliminate stress, a riser system must be anchored at

least once to the building structure. Technical information on

pipe expansion, contraction and anchoring can be found in the

ASHRAE HVAC Systems and Equipment Handbook and vari-

ous other technical publications. Riser expansion and the an-

choring of each unit is the responsibility of the design engineer

and installing contractor.

Keep risers off the floor while moving the cabinet. Failure

to heed this warning could result in equipment damage.

2. Be sure that all the copper fittings are clean and flee of

dirt. Raise the cabinet upright and lower it into the riser

from the floor below.

NOTE: The top of each riser is equipped with a 3 in. deep

swaged connection. There is sufficient extension at the

bottom to allow insertion of approxhnately 2 in. of the

riser into the swaged top of the riser below.

3. Center risers in the pipe chase and shim the cabinet level.

Plumb risers in two planes to assure proper unit operation

and condensate drainage.

4. Attach the cabinet assembly to the floor and the building

structure on at least two sides using sheet metal angles

(field provided). A field-provided base vibration dampen-

ing pad can be used to help eliminate transfer of any vi-

bration to the structure. If vibration dampening pads are

used some rough-in dimensional changes will need to be

considered before installation due to style and thickness

of the pads. Additional anchorage can be provided by in-

stalling brackets at the top of the cabinet (field provided).

5. DO NOT attach drywall studs to the equipment cabinet.

6. When all units on a riser are anchored into place, com-

plete riser joints as follows:

a. Verify that all riser joints are vertically aligned and

that risers penetrate at least 1 in. into the swaged

joint of the riser below. DO NOT let riser joint bot-

tom out.

b. Braze riser joints with a high-temperature alloy

using proper Phos-copper of Silfos. Soft solder 50-

50, 60-40, 85-15, or 95-5 or low temperature alloys

are not suitable riser weld materials.

c. Anchor built-in risers to the building structure with

at least one contact point. To accommodate vertical

expansion and contraction DO NOT fasten risers

rigidly within the unit.

d. Verify that unit shut-off valves are closed. DO

NOT OPEN VALVES until the system has been

cleaned and flushed.

e. Flush system; refer to System Cleaning and Flush-

ing section for more information.

f. Install vents in piping loop as required to bleed the

system of air accumulated during installation.

Install supply duct extension(s) provided with the cabinet

by folding the tabs down to secure extension(s) to

cabinet.

COMMERCIAL WATER LOOP APPLICATION -- Coin-

mercial systems typically include a number of units connected

to a common piping system. Any unit plumbing maintenance

work can introduce air into the piping system; therefore, air

elimination equipment is a major portion of the mechanical

room plumbing. In piping systems expected to utilize water

temperatures below 50 F, 1/2 in. closed-cell insulation is re-

quired on all piping surfaces to eliminate condensation. Metal

to plastic threaded joints should never be used due to their ten-

dency to leak over time.

Teflon tape thread sealant is recommended for use in system

piping to minimize internal fouling of the heat exchanger. Do

not over tighten connections and route piping so as not to inter-

fere with service or maintenance access. Hose kits include shut

off valves, pressure/temperature (P/T) plugs for performance

measurement, high pressure stainless steel braided hose, and

hose adaptors.

Balancing valves and variable speed pumping systems my

also be used.

The piping system should be flushed to remove dirt, pipe

shavings, chips, and other foreign material prior to operation.

See System Cleaning and Flushing section. The flow rate is

usually set between 2.25 and 3.5 gpm per ton for most

applications of water loop heat pumps. To ensure proper main-

tenance and servicing, P/T ports are imperative for temperature

and flow verification, as well as performance checks.

Water loop heat pump (cooling tower/boiler) systems typi-

cally utilize a common loop, maintained between 60 to 90 E

The use of a closed circuit evaporate cooling tower with a sec-

ondary heat exchanger between the tower and the water loop is

recommended. If an open type cooling tower is used continu-

ously, chemical treatment and filtering will be necessary.

GROUND-LOOP HEAT PUMP APPLICATION

NOTE: In most commercial building applications using a

frame style or plate style heat-exchanger should be used to iso-

late the water source heat pump units from the ground water

loop increasing system performance, equipment longevity.

Pre-Installation -- Prior to installation, locate and mark all ex-

isting underground utilities, piping, etc. Install loops for new

construction before sidewalks, patios, driveways, and other

construction has begun. During construction, accurately mark

all ground loop piping on the plot plan as an aid in avoiding po-

tential furore damage to the installation.

Piping Installation -- All earth loop piping materials should

be limited to polyethylene fusion only for in ground sections of

the loop. Galvanized or steel fittings should not be used at any

time due to their tendency to corrode. All plastic to metal

threaded fittings should be avoided due to their potential to leak

in earth coupled applications. A flanged fitting should be sub-

stimted. P/T plugs should be used so that flow can be measured

using the pressure drop of the unit heat exchanger.

Earth loop temperatures can range between 25 and 110 F.

Flow rates between 2.25 and 3.0 gpm per ton of cooling capac-

ity is recommended in these applications.

Test individual horizontal loop circuits before backfilling.

Test vertical U-bends and pond loop assemblies prior to

installation.

Pressures of at least 100 psi should be used when testing.

Do not exceed the pipe pressure rating. Test entire system

when all loops are assembled.

Flushing the Earth Loop -- Upon completion of system in-

stallation and testing, flush the system to remove all foreign ob-

jects and purge to remove all air.

Antifreeze -- In areas when minilnum entering loop tempera-

rares drop below 40 F or where piping will be routed through

areas subject to freezing, antifreeze is required. Alcohols and

glycols are commonly used as antifreeze; however your local

Carrier distributor should be consulted for the antifreeze best

suited to your area. Freeze protection should be maintained to

15 F below the lowest expected entering loop temperature. For

example, if 30 F is the lninilnum expected entering loop tem-

perature, the leaving loop temperature would be 25 to 22 F and

freeze protection should be at 15 F. Calculation as follows:

30F- 15F= 15F.

All alcohols should be premixed and pumped from a reser-

voir outside of the building when possible or introduced under

the water level to prevent fumes. Calculate the total volume of

fluid in the piping system. Then use the percentage by volume

shown in Table 2 for the amount of antifreeze needed. Anti-

freeze concentration should be checked from a well mixed

sample using a hydrometer to measure specific gravity.

*Must not be denatured with any petroleum based product.

OPEN -LOOP GROUND WATER SYSTEMS -- Shut off

valves should be included for ease of servicing. Boiler drains or

other valves should be "tee'd" into the lines to allow acid flush-

ing of the heat exchanger. P/T plugs should be used so that

pressure drop and temperature can be measured. Piping materi-

als should be limited to copper or PVC SCH80.

NOTE: Due to the pressure and temperature extremes, PVC

SCH40 is not recommended.

Water quantity should be plentiful and of good quality. Con-

sult Table 3 for water quality guidelines and recommendations.

Copper is recommended for closed loop systems and open loop

ground water systems that are not high in mineral content or

corrosiveness. In ground water situations where scaling could

be heavy or where biological growth such as iron bacteria will

be present, an open loop system is not recommended. Heat ex-

changer coils may over time lose heat exchange capabilities

due to build up of mineral deposits. Heat exchangers must only

be serviced by a qualified technician, as acid cleaning agents

and special pumping equipment are required.

Inareaswithextremelyhardwater,theownershouldbein-

formedthattheheatexchangermayrequireadditionalsystem

maintenanceandoccasionalacidflushing.

Water Supply and Quality -- Check water supply. Water sup-

ply should be plentiful and of good quality. See Table 3 for wa-

ter quality guidelines.

In all applications, the quality of the water circulated

through the heat exchanger must fall within the ranges listed in

the Water Quality Guidelines table. Consult a local water treat-

ment firm, independent testing facility, or local water authority

for specific recommendations to maintain water quality within

the published limits.

IMPORTANT: Failure to comply with the above required

water quality and quantity limitations and the closed-

system application design requirements may cause damage

to the tube-in-tube heat exchanger. This damage is not the

responsibility of the manufacturer.

Sulfides in the water quickly oxidize when exposed to air, requir-

ing that no agitation occur as the sample is taken. Unless tested

immediately at the site, the sample will require stabilization with a

few drops of one Molar zinc acetate solution, allowing accurate

sulfide determination up to 24 hours after sampling. A low pH and

high alkalinity cause system problems, even when both values

are within ranges shown. The term pH refers to the acidity, basic-

ity, or neutrality of the water supply. Below 7.0, the water is con-

sidered to be acidic. Above 7.0, water is considered to be basic.

Neutral water contains a pH of 7.0.

To convert ppm to grains per gallon, divide by 17. Hardness in

mg/I is equivalent to ppm.

Step 6 -- Wire Field Power Supply

Connections

Electrical shock can cause personal iniury or death. When

installing or servicing system, always turn off main power

to system. There may be more than one disconnect switch.

ELECTRICAL-LINE VOLTAGE -- All field-installed wir-

ing, including electrical ground, must comply with the National

Electrical Code (NEC) as well as all applicable local codes. Re-

fer to Tables 4 and 5 for fuse sizes. Refer to Table 6 for blower

speed wiring. See Fig. 10 for field connections or the electrical

diagram located on the back of the electrical compartment front

panel. All electrical connections must be made by the installing

(or electrical) contractor. All final electrical connections must

be made with a length of flexible conduit to minhnize vibration

and sound transmission to the building.

General Line Voltage Wiring -- Be sure the available

power is the same voltage and phase shown on the unit

serial plate. Line and low voltage wiring must be done in

accordance with local codes or the NEC, whichever is appli-

cable.

POWER CONNECTION

Units Equipped with Disconnect -- Connect incoming line

voltage to the disconnect switch and ground wire to the ground

lug provided inside the electrical compartment.

Units without Disconnect -- Line voltage connection is made

by connecting the incoming line voltage wires to the line

side(s) of the contactor.

208/230-VAC OPERATION--All colmnercial 208/230-v

units are factory wired for 208-v single-phase operation. For

230-v single-phase operation the primary voltage to the trans-

former must be changed. Remove the red lead from the com-

pressor contactor capping it with a wire nut and connecting the

orange 230-vac lead wire from the transformer to the compres-

sor contactor.

NOTE: Failure to change the primary voltage lead when using

240-vac line voltage may result in electrical component dam-

age and intermittent system failure.

Step 8 EClean and Flush System _ Cleaning

and flushing the unit is the most important step to ensure

proper start-up and continued efficient operation of the system.

Follow the instructions below to properly clean and flush the

system.

1. Verify that electrical power to the unit is off.

2. Verify that supply and return riser service valves are

closed at each unit.

3. Fill the system with water, leaving the air vents open.

Bleed all air from the system but do not allow the system

to overflow. Check the system for leaks and make any re-

quired repairs.

4. Adjust the water and air level in the expansion tank.

5. With strainers in place, start the pumps. Systematically

check each vent to ensure that all of the air is bled from

the system.

6. Verify that make-up water is available and adjusted to

properly replace any space remaining when all air is

purged. Check the system for leaks and make any addi-

tional repairs if needed.

7. Set the boiler to raise the loop temperature to approxi-

mately 85 E Open the drain at the lowest point in the

system. Verify that make-up water replacement rate

equals rate of bleed. Continue to bleed the system until

the water appears clean or for at least three hours which-

ever is longer.

8. Completely drain the system.

Flush risers as follows:

1. Close shut-off valves at each unit on the riser except the

shut-off valve on the top floor.

2. Flush solution through supply riser.

NOTE: The solution passes through the top floor connec-

tion down the return riser.

3. When the building has more than 10 floors, connect the

supply and return run outs on the top two floors to divide

the water flow and reduce pressure drop at the pump.

4. Repeat flushing procedure for each set of risers in the

building.

5. Refill the system and add in a proportion of trisodium

phosphate approximately one pound per 150 gallons of

water. Reset the boiler to raise the loop temperature to

about 100 E

6. Circulate the solution for between 8 and 24 hours. At the

end of this period, shut offthe circulating pump and drain

the solution. Repeat system cleaning if needed.

7. Open the supply and return riser service valves at each

unit. Refill the system and bleed offall air.

8. Test the system pH with litmus paper. The system water

should have a pH of 6 to 8.5. Add chemicals as appropri-

ate to maintain pH levels.

9. When the cleaning process is complete, remove the short-

circuited hoses. Reconnect the hoses to the proper supply,

and return the connections to each of the units. Refill the

system and bleed off all air.

NOTE: DO NOT use "Stop Leak" or similar chemical

agent in this system. Addition of chemicals of this type to

the loop water will foul the heat exchanger and inhibit

unit operation.

Step 9 _Install Hose Kit

1. Refer to Fig. 11 for an illustration of a typical supply/

return hose kit assembly.

2. Pipe joint compound or Teflon tape is not necessary when

using factory-supplied hose kits.

NOTE: When anti-freeze is used, ensure that it is compat-

ible with Teflon tape and pipe joint compound that may

have been applied to other pipe fittings in the system.

3. Attach the flex hoses. Unpack and examine hose kit. Re-

move all shipping and/or packing material such as rubber

bands, plastic caps, and styrofoam. Hose kit should con-

tain 2 hoses, one balancing valve with shutoff, one shut-

off, and 2 hose adaptors.

4. Locate the valves inside the unit cabinet marked WATER

1N and WATER OUT. Attach the hoses to the water

valve. Always use a back-up wrench when tightening the

hose to the valve.

5. If the valves are removed to attach the hoses, be sure the

O-ring is in the valve before attaching to the union in the

cabinet.

NOTE: The valve union is to be hand tight plus an addi-

tional 1/4 of a turn; always use back-up wrench on the fit-

tings being tightened.

Attach flex hoses. Let the universal ends of the hoses

hang inside the cabinet. See Table 8 for bend allowances.

NOTE: Be sure the valve handles and P/T ports are in a

position that enables them to be opened and closed and

used for system readings. Check the swivel ends of the

hoses. Gaskets must be in the hose for proper seal.

NOTE: Do not allow hoses to rest against sharp edges or structural

building components. Compressor vibration may cause hose failure

and vibration transmission through the hoses to the structure, caus-

ing noise complaints.

7. Slide the chassis part way into the cabinet. Match the

WATER 1N hose to the WATER 1N tube on the chassis

and the WATER OUT hose to the WATER OUT tube.

Tighten the swivel connection keeping the copper tube

parallel to the sides of the chassis, and then tighten the

hose to the copper making sure the hose hangs straight

without twisting or turning.

NOTE: The copper union and the hose union is to be

hand tight plus an additional 1/4 of a turn, always use

back-up wrench on the fittings being tightened.

Step 10 EInstall Chassis into the Cabinet

1. Open the unit water valves and check piping for leaks.

2. Complete electrical connections between cabinet and

chassis by mating the quick-connect plugs on the chassis

cable to the plugs located in the bottom surface of the

blower deck, directly under the control box.

3. Before installing the return panel, perform the following

checks:

a. Ensure that fan wheel rotates freely and does not

rub against housing. If rough handling during ship-

ping has caused fan wheel to shift, adjust as neces-

sary.

b. Verify that water piping connections to the chassis

are complete and that unit service valves which

were closed during flushing have been opened.

c. Verify that power between the cabinet and chassis

is properly connected.

d. After the system has been filled and system pump

is started, all connections should be re-checked for

water leaks. Carrier WILL NOT be responsible or

liable for damage caused by any water leaks from a

field-installed water connection(s).

Re-attach the upper electrical access panel. Do not start

the unit with access panel removed; system lockout and

possible equipment damage can occur.

Step 11 E Install Return Panel

1. Install the provided adhesive-backed gasket material on

the outer perimeter of the cabinet to seal the return panel

to the cabinet.

2. Install the cabinet return panel. Refer to Fig. 4 and 5.

Step 12 EInstall Supply Grille

Refer to Fig. 2, 3, and 12 to determine grille size and location

based on the type and size of the unit cabinet!chassis combina-

tion. Perform the following to install supply grilles over the

4. Unit fan: Manually rotate fan to verify flee rotation and

ensure that blower wheel is secured to the motor shaft. Be

sure to remove any shipping supports if needed. DO NOT

oil motors upon start-up. Fan motors are pre-oiled at the

factory. Check unit fan speed selection and compare to

design requirements.

5. Condensate line: Verify that condensate line is open and

properly pitched toward dram.

6. Water flow balancing: Record inlet and outlet water tem-

peratures for each heat pump upon start-up. This check

can eliminate nuisance trip outs and high velocity water

flow that could erode heat exchangers.

7. Unit controls: Verify that the microprocessor DIP (dual

m-line package) switches are set for proper operation and

system configuration.

System Checkout

1. System water temperature: Check water temperature for

proper range and also verify heating and cooling set

points for proper operation.

2. System pH: Check and adjust water pH if necessary to

maintain a level between 6 and 8.5. Proper pH promotes

longevity of hoses and fittings.

3. System flushing: Verify that all hoses are connected end

to end when flushing to ensure that debris bypasses the

unit heat exchanger, water valves and other components.

Water used in the system must be potable quality initially

and clean of dirt, piping slag, and strong chemical clean-

ing agents. Verify that all air is purged from the system.

Air in the system can cause poor operation or system

corrosion.

4. Cooling tower/boiler: Check equipment for proper set

points and operation.

5. Standby pumps: Verify that the standby pump is properly

installed and in operating condition.

6. System controls: Verify that system controls function and

operate in the proper sequence.

7. Low water temperature cutout: Verify that low water

temperature cutout controls are provided for the outdoor

portion of the loop. Otherwise, operating problems may

occur.

8. System control center: Verify that the control center and

alarm panel have appropriate set points and are operating

as designed.

FIELD SELECTABLE INPUTS

Jumpers and DIP switches on the control board are used to

customize unit operation and can be configured in the field. See

Tables 10 and 11 for heat pump and BacNet control board DIP

switch settings.

IMPORTANT: Jumpers and DIP switches should only

be clipped when power to control board has been turned

off.

DIP Switch Settings and Operation

DIP SWITCH 1 (Test Mode = Off/Normal Mode = On)

Test Mode -- Test mode is used to speed up the operation

sequence of the unit, therefore creating a more timely trouble-

shooting technique. All time delays are shorted by 10 times

with the exception of the high-pressure lockout which is

instantaneous regardless of which mode the switch is posi-

tioned. DIP switch 1 must be placed into the Normal mode to

resume proper operation of the unit.

DIP SWITCH 2 (FP 1 at 15 F = Off/FP 1 at 32 F = On)

Water Side Freeze Protection Setting -- DIP switch 2 is used

to determine the loop freeze protection setting. Depending on

the brine concentration of the liquid source, the temperature

can be set at 15 F or 32 F. The switch MUST be set to the "On"

position if pure water is used as the source brine. This is nor-

mally the case in open loop systems. Set the DIP switch to the

"OIF' position for closed loop systems that contain a brine con-

centration that allows liquid temperatures to fall to, or below,

15E

DIP SWITCH 3 (Tstat at Cmmn= off/tstat at 24-vac = On)

Thermostat Selection -- DIP switch 3 is used to select the

type of thermostat that will be used to control the unit. A digi-

tal colr_numcatmg thermostat can be purchased with the unit

that will allow all fault signals to be displayed on the

thermostat. This allows for efficient troubleshooting and does

not require that the technician access the electrical control box

todeterminetheuniterror.If adigitalcolmnunicatingthermo-

DIPSWITCH4(RVatCooling=Off/RVatCooling=On)

Reversing Valve Operation -- DIP switch 4 is used to deter-

mine the reversing valve (RV) position in the Cooling mode

(deenergized/energized). This function is used only when a 24-

vac thermostat is used and is determined by the reversing valve

output of the thermostat in the Cooling mode. If the thermostat

deenergizes the reversing valve in the Cooling mode then set

the DIP switch in the "Off" position. If the thermostat ener-

gizes the reversing valve in the Cooling mode set the DIP

switch in the "On" position.

Standard 24-vac Sequence of Operation

RANDOM START DELAY -- When the unit is first pow-

ered "On" the control microprocessor will generate a random

number to determine the start delay of the compressor opera-

tion (3 to 5 minutes). This delay is used to prevent multiple

units from cycling "On" at the same time. The purpose is to

prevent a large power load on the building electrical system af-

ter a power outage. After the number, or delay time, is generat-

ed the microprocessor will use this thne to determine the mini-

mum amount of time that must be delayed before the compres-

sor is cycled "On" after a demand is received from the

thermostat.

ANTI SHORT CYCLING DELAY -- After the random

start delay is generated the microprocessor will use this time to

determine the minimum amount of time that must be delayed

before the compressor is cycled "On" after a demand is

received from the thermostat. This allows the refrigerant sys-

tem to equalize in pressure and prevents short-cycling of the

compressor.

MINIMUM COMPRESSOR RUNTIME -- The minimum

compressor mntime of each cycle, heating or cooling, is

60 seconds. Once the compressor is energized it will not de-

energize, even if the thermostat input is removed, until the min-

imum mntime is satisfied.

COOLING FIRST STAGE (Y1, O) -- When the micropro-

cessor receives (Y1, O) at the 24-vac thermostat input connec-

tion the unit will proceed with the cooling first stage sequence.

The microprocessor must receive these signals for 2 continu-

ous seconds before it recognizes the inputs as valid. Once the

input signals are determined to be valid the reversing valve will

energjze/deenergize after 5 seconds.

The microprocessor will then verify that the anti-short cy-

cling delay has been satisfied. Once the anti short cycling delay

has been satisfied the compressor and will cycle "On." The

blower will cycle "On" in low speed 15 seconds after the com-

pressor is cycled "On."

COOLING SECOND STAGE (Y1, Y2, O)- When the mi-

croprocessor receives (Y1, Y2, O) at the 24-vac thermostat in-

put connection the unit will proceed with the cooling second

stage sequence. The microprocessor must receive these signals

for 2 continuous seconds before it recognizes the inputs as val-

id. Once the input signals are determined to be valid the revers-

ing valve will energize/deenergize after 5 seconds. The micro-

processor will then verify that the anti short cycling delay has

been satisfied. Once the anti short cycling delay has been satis-

fied the compressor and will cycle "On." The blower will cycle

"On" in high speed 15 seconds after the compressor is cycled

"On."

HEATING FIRST STAGE (Y1) -- When the microproces-

sor receives (Y1) at the 24-vac thermostat input connection the

unit will proceed with the cooling first stage sequence. The mi-

croprocessor must receive these signals for 2 continuous sec-

onds before it recognizes the inputs as valid. Once the input

signals are determined to be valid the reversing valve will

energize/deenergize after 5 seconds. The microprocessor will

then verify that the anti short cycling delay has been satisfied.

Once the anti short cycling delay has been satisfied the com-

pressor and will cycle "On." The blower will cycle "On" in low

speed 15 seconds after the compressor is cycled "On."

HEATING SECOND STAGE (Y1, Y2) -- When the micro-

processor receives (Y1, Y2) at the 24-vac thermostat input

connection the unit will proceed with the heating second stage

sequence. The microprocessor must receive these signals for

2 continuous seconds before it recognizes the inputs as valid.

Once the input signals are determined to be valid the reversing

valve will energize/deenergize after 5 seconds.

The microprocessor will then verify that the anti short cy-

cling delay has been satisfied. Once the anti short cycling delay

has been satisfied the compressor and will cycle "On." The

blower will cycle "On" in high speed 15 seconds after the com-

pressor is cycled "On."

FAN ONLY MODE (G) -- The fan only mode can be used

only with a 24-vac thermostat and will energize the low speed

blower when a (G) input has been received at the 24-vac ther-

mostat input connection. When the input is removed the blow-

er will deenergize immediately.

START-UP

1. Turn on the line power to all heat pumps.

2. Turn the thermostat fan position to "ON." Blower should

start.

Balance airflow at registers.

Adjust all valves to their full open positions. Room

temperature should be within the minimum-maximum

ranges of Table 9. During start-up checks, loop water

temperature entering the heat pump should be between

60 and 95 E

Two factors determine the operating limits of the 50VS

heat pumps: supply-water temperature and the return-air

temperature. When any one of these factors is at a mini-

mum or maxhnum level, the other factor must be at a nor-

mal level to ensure proper unit operation.

a. Adjust the unit thermostat to the warmest setting.

Place the thermostat mode switch in the "COOL"

position. Slowly reduce thermostat setting until the

compressor activates.

b. Check for cool air delivery at the unit grille within

a few minutes after the unit has begun to operate.

NOTE: Units have a 3 to 5 minute time delay in

the control circuit that can be eliminated on the

microprocessor control board. See test mode

described in the DIP Switch Settings and Opera-

tion section.

Check the elevation and cleanliness of the conden-

sate lines. Dripping may be a sign of a blocked

line. Check that the condensate trap is filled to pro-

vide a water seal.

Refer to Table 12. Check the temperature of both

entering and leaving water. If temperature is within

range, proceed with the test. If temperature is

outside of the operating range, see Troubleshooting

section.

Check air temperature drop across the air coil

when compressor is operating. Air temperature

drop should be between 15 and 25 E

f. Turnthermostatto"OFF"position.A hissingnoise

indicatesproperfunctioningofthereversingvalve.

g. Allow5 minutesbetweentestsfor pressureto

equalizebeforebeginningheatingtest.

h. Adjustthethermostattothelowestsetting.Place

the thermostat mode switch in the "HEAT"

position.

i. Slowly raise the thermostat to a higher temperature

until the compressor activates.

j. Check for warm air delivery within a few minutes

after the unit has begun to operate.

k. Refer to Table 9. Check the temperature of both

entering and leaving water. If temperature is within

range, proceed with the test. If temperature is out-

side of the operating range, check refrigerant

pressures.

1. Check air temperature rise across the air coil when

compressor is operating. Air temperature rise

should be between 20 and 30 F.

in. Check for vibration, noise, and water leaks.

6. If unit fails to operate, perform troubleshooting analysis

(see troubleshooting section). If the check described fails

to reveal the problem and the unit still does not operate,

contact a trained service technician to ensure proper diag-

nosis and repair of the equipment.

7. When testing is complete, set system to maintain desired

comfort level.

NOTE: If performance during any mode appears abnormal

refer to the troubleshooting section of this manual. To obtain

maximum performance, the air coil should be cleaned before

start-up. Use a coil cleaner for use on indoor evaporator refrig-

eration equipment.

Operating Limits

ENVIRONMENT- Units are designed for indoor installa-

tion only. Never install units in areas subject to freezing or

where humidity levels could cause cabinet condensation (such

as unconditioned spaces subject to 100% outside air).

POWER SUPPLY -- A voltage variation of_+ 10% of name-

plate utilization voltage is acceptable.

STARTING CONDITIONS- Starting conditions vary de-

pending upon model number and are based upon the following:

• Conditions in Table 9 are not normal or continuous operat-

ing conditions. Minimuln/lnaximuln limits are start-up con-

ditions to bring the building space up to occupancy

temperatures. Units are not designed to operate under these

conditions on a regular basis.

• Voltage utilization range complies with ARI Standard 110.

• Determination of operating limits is dependent primarily

upon three factors:

a. Ambient temperature

b. Return air temperature

c. Water temperature

• When any one of these factors is at lninimum or maximum

levels, the other two factors should be at normal levels to

ensure proper unit operation.

Extreme variations in temperature and humidity and/or cor-

rosive water or air will adversely affect unit performance, reli-

ability, and service life.

Lockout Mode EIf the microprocessor board is flashing

a system warning and the unit is locked out and not running,

the lockout can be cleared from the microprocessor by a mo-

mentary shutdown of incoming line voltage (208-vac or

230-vac). A lockout that still occurs after line voltage shut-

down means that the fault still exists and needs to be repaired.

HIGH-PRESSURE LOCKOUT (HP) -- The high-pressure

lockout will occur if the discharge pressure of the compressor

exceeds 600 psi. The lockout is ilrnnediate and has no delay

from the time the high-pressure switch opens to the lockout.

Upon lockout the compressor will be deenergized ilmnediately.

The blower will be deenergized 15 seconds after the compres-

sor is deenergized.

LOW-PRESSURE LOCKOUT (LP) -- The low-pressure

lockout will occur if the suction pressure falls below 40 psi for

30 continuous seconds. The compressor will then be de-

energized and the blower will deenergize 15 seconds after the

compressor is deenergized.

FREEZE PROTECTION 1 LOCKOUT- The freeze pro-

tection 1 lockout will occur if the liquid line temperature falls

below the set point (15 F or 30 F) for 30 continuous seconds.

See DIP switch 2 description in the DIP Switch Settings and

Operation section. The compressor will then be deenergized

and the blower will deenergize 15 seconds after the compressor

is deenergized.

FREEZE PROTECTION 2 LOCKOUT -- The freeze pro-

tection 1 lockout will occur if the air coil temperature falls be-

low the set point 32 F for 30 continuous seconds. See DIP

switch 2. The compressor will then be deenergized and the

blower will deenergize 15 seconds after the compressor is

deenergized.

CONDENSATE OVERFLOW 1 LOCKOUT (CO1) --

The unit contains one condensate overflow sensor located in

the chassis drain pan below the air coil. A condensate lockout

will occur if the sensor senses condensate for 30 continuous

seconds. The compressor will then be deenergized and the

blower will deenergize 15 seconds after the compressor is

deenergized.

OVER/UNDER VOLTAGE PROTECTION -- If the unit

control voltage is less than 18-vac or greater than 30-vac the

unit will shut down all inputs ilrnnediately. Once the voltage

has reached acceptable levels the unit microprocessor will

power "On" automatically and resume previous operation.

LEAVING WATER TEMPERATURE SENSOR FAIL-

URE (LWT)- If the leaving water temperature thermistor

fails it will not affect the operation of the unit. This sensor is for

monitoring purposes only.

DISCHARGE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR FAILURE

(DAT)- If the discharge temperature thermistor fails it will

not affect the operation of the unit. This sensor is for monitor-

ing purposes only.

FREEZE PROTECTION 1 TEMPERATURE SENSOR

FAILURE (FP1) --If the freeze protection 1 thermistor fails

for 30 continuous seconds an FP1 lockout will occur. The

compressor will then be deenergized and the blower will deen-

ergize 15 seconds after the compressor is deenergized. The sen-

sor must be replaced if this lockout occurs.

FREEZE PROTECTION 2 TEMPERATURE SENSOR

FAILURE (FP2) -- If the freeze protection 2 thermistor fails

for 30 continuous seconds an FP2 lockout will occur. The

compressor will then be deenergized and the blower will

deenergize 15 seconds after the compressor is deenergized. The

sensor must be replaced if this lockout occurs.

SERVICE

Electrical shock can cause personal iniury or death. When

installing or servicing system, always turn off main power

to system. There may be more than one disconnect switch.

check to ensure amp draw is no more than 10% greater than in-

dicated on serial data plate.

Evaporator Coil -- The air coil must be cleaned to ob-

tain maximum performance. Check once a year under normal

operating conditions and, if dirty, brush or vacuum clean. Care

must be taken not to damage the aluminum fins while cleaning.

The installation and servicing of air-conditioning equip-

ment can be hazardous due to system pressure and electri-

cal components. Only trained and qualified service

personnel should install, repair, or service air-conditioning

equipment.

Water Coil Maintenance

CLOSED LOOP SYSTEM (All Other Water Loop Applica-

tions) -- Generally water coil maintenance is not needed for

closed loop systems. However, if the piping is known to have

high dirt or debris content, it is best to establish a periodic

maintenance schedule with the owner so the water coil can be

checked regularly. Dirty installations are typically the result of

deterioration of iron or galvanized piping or components in the

system. Open cooling towers requiring heavy chemical treat-

ment and mineral build-up through water use can also contrib-

ute to higher maintenance. Should periodic coil cleaning be

necessary, use standard coil cleaning procedures, which are

compatible with both the heat exchanger material and copper

water lines. Generally, the more water flowing through the unit,

the less chance for scaling. However, flow rates over 3 gpm per

ton can produce water (or debris) velocities that can erode the

heat exchanger wall and ultimately produce leaks.

OPEN LOOP SYSTEM (Direct Ground Water) -- If the

system is installed m an area with a known high mineral con-

tent (125 ppm or greater) in the water, it is best to establish a

periodic maintenance schedule with the owner so the coil can

be checked regularly. Should periodic coil cleaning be neces-

sary, use standard coil cleaning procedures, which are compati-

ble with the heat exchanger material and copper water lines.

Generally, the more water flowing through the unit, the less

chance for scaling. Therefore, 1.5 gpm per ton is recolr_nended

as a minhnum flow. Minimum flow rate for entering water

temperatures below 50 F is 2.0 gpm per ton.

Filters -- A clean filter must be used to obtain maximum

performance. Filters should be inspected every month under

normal operating conditions. It is especially flnportant to pro-

vide consistent washing of these filters (in the opposite direc-

tion of the normal airflow) once per month. Never operate a

unit without a filter, severe system damage can occur.

Condensate Drain- In areas where airborne bacteria

may produce an algae build-up in the dram pan, it may be nec-

essary to remove and treat the drain pan chemically with an al-

gaecide approximately every three months to minimize the

problem. The condensate pan may also need to be cleaned peri-

odically to ensure indoor air quality. The condensate dram can

pick up lint and dirt, especially with dirty filters. Inspect the

dram twice a year to avoid the possibility of plugging.

Compressor _Conduct annual amperage checks to in-

sure that amp draw is no more than 10% greater than indicated

on the serial data plate.

Fan Motors _All units have lubricated fan motors. Peri-

odic maintenance oiling is not recolmnended, as it will result in

dirt accumulating in the excess oil and cause eventual motor

failure. Conduct annual dry operation check and amperage

Use caution when cleaning the coil fins as the fin edges are

extremely sharp. Failure to heed this warning could result

in personal iniury.

Cabinet _The cabinet can be cleaned using a mild

detergent. Do not allow water to stay m contact with the cabi-

net for long periods of thne to prevent corrosion of the cabinet

sheet metal.

Refrigerant System -- Tomaintain sealed circuit integ-

rity, do not install service gages unless unit operation appears

abnormal. Verify that air and water flow rates are at proper lev-

els before servicing the refrigerant circuit.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Lockout Modes _If the microprocessor board is flash-

ing a system warning and the unit is locked out and not run-

ning, the lockout can be cleared from the microprocessor by a

momentary shutdown of incoming line voltage (208-vac or

230-vac). A lockout that still occurs after line voltage shudown

means that the fault still exists and needs to be repaired.

HIGH-PRESSURE LOCKOUT (HP) -- The high-pressure

lockout will occur if the discharge pressure of the compressor

exceeds 600 psi. The lockout is ilr_nediate and has no delay

from the time the high-pressure switch opens to the lockout.

Upon lockout the compressor will be deenergized ilmnediately.

The blower will be deenergized 15 seconds after the compres-

sor is deenergized.

LOW-PRESSURE LOCKOUT (LP) -- The low-pressure

lockout will occur if the suction pressure falls below 40 psi for

30 continuous seconds. The compressor will then be deener-

gized and the blower will deenergize 15 seconds after the com-

pressor is deenergized.

FREEZE PROTECTION 1 LOCKOUT -- The freeze pro-

tection 1 lockout will occur if the liquid line temperature falls

below the set point (15 F or 30 F) for 30 continuous seconds.

See DIP switch 2 description in the DIP Switch Settings and

Operation section. The compressor will then be deenergized

and the blower will deenergize 15 seconds after the compressor

is deenergized.

FREEZE PROTECTION 2 LOCKOUT -- The freeze pro-

tection 2 lockout will occur if the air coil temperature falls be-

low the set point (32 F) for 30 continuous seconds. See DIP
