SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installation and servicing air-conditioning equipment can be
hazardous due to system pressure and electrical components.
Only trained and qualified service personnel should install, re-
pair, or service air-conditioning equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance func-
tions 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 precau-
tions 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.
INSTALLATION
Step 1 — Provide Unit Support
ROOF CURB — Assemble and install accessory roof curb or
horizontal adapter roof curb in accordance with instructions
shipped with the curb or horizontal adapter. Accessory roof
curb and horizontal adapter roof curb and information required
to field fabricate a roof curb or horizontal adapter roof curb are
shown in Fig. 1 and 2. Install insulation, cant strips, roofing,
and counter flashing as shown. Ductwork can be secured to
roof curb before unit is set in place.
Curb or adapter roof curb should be level. This is necessary
to permit unit drain to function properly. Unit leveling toler-
ance is ± 1/16 in. per linear ft in any direction. Refer to Accesso-
ry Roof Curb or Horizontal Adapter Roof Curb Installation In-
structions for additional information as required.
ALTERNATE UNIT SUPPORT — When the curb or adapter
cannot be used, support unit with sleepers using unit curb or
adapter 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.
Step 2 — Rig and Place Unit — Inspect unit for
transportation damage. File any claim with transportation
agency. Keep unit upright, and do not drop. 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 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.
POSITIONING — Provide clearance around and above unit
for airflow, safety, and service access (Fig. 4 and 5).
Do not install unit in an indoor location. Do not locate air in-
lets near exhaust vents or other sources of contaminated air.
Although unit is weatherproof, guard against water from
higher level runoff and overhangs.
ROOF MOUNT — Check building codes for weight distribu-
tion requirements.
Before performing service or maintenance operations on
unit, turn off main power switch to unit. Electrical shock
could cause personal injury.
IMPORTANT: Units have high ambient operating lim-
its. If limits are exceeded, the unit will automatically
lock the compressor out of operation. Manual reset will
be required to restart the compressor.
IMPORTANT: The gasketing of the unit to the roof curb
or adapter roof curb is critical for a leak-proof seal.
Install gasket supplied with the roof curb or adapter roof
curb as shown in Fig. 1. Improperly applied gasket can
result in air leaks and poor unit performance.

Step 3 — Field Fabricate Ductwork — Secure all
ducts to building structure. Use flexible duct connectors be-
tween unit and ducts as required. Insulate and weatherproof all
external ductwork, joints, and roof openings with counter
flashing and mastic in accordance with applicable codes.
Ducts passing through an unconditioned space must be in-
sulated and covered with a vapor barrier.
The 50TJ units with electric heat require a 1-in. clearance
for the first 24 in. of ductwork.
Outlet grilles must not lie directly below unit discharge.
NOTE: A 90-degree elbow must be provided in the ductwork
to comply with UL (Underwriters’ Laboratories) codes for use
with electric heat.
Step 4 — Make Unit Duct Connections — Unit
is shipped for through-the-bottom duct connections. Ductwork
openings are shown in Fig. 6. Field-fabricated concentric duct-
work may be connected as shown in Fig. 7 and 8. Attach all
ductwork to roof curb and roof curb basepans. Refer to installa-
tion instructions shipped with accessory roof curb for more
information.
Step 5 — Trap Condensate Drain — See Fig. 4, 5,
and 9 for 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 conden-
sate 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 elbows to provide a straight path down through
holes in unit base rails (see Fig. 10). A trap at least 4-in. deep
must be used.
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 condi-
tioned 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.
Due to electric heater, supply duct will require 90 degree
elbow.
NOTE: Do not drill in this area; damage to basepan may result in
water leak.

Step 6 — Make Electrical Connections
FIELD POWER SUPPLY — Unit is factory wired for volt-
age shown on 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
requirements.
Route power lines through control box access panel or unit
basepan (Fig. 4 and 5) to connections as shown on unit wiring
diagram and Fig. 11.
Operating voltage to compressor must be within voltage
range indicated on unit nameplate. On 3-phase units, voltages
between phases must be balanced within 2% and the current
must be balanced within 10%.
Use the following formula to determine the percentage of
voltage imbalance.
Percentage of Voltage Imbalance
EXAMPLE: Supply voltage is 460-3-60.
AB = 452 v
BC = 464 v
AC = 455 v
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 be-
low the maximum allowable 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.
FIELD CONTROL WIRING — Install a Carrier-approved
accessory thermostat assembly according to the installation in-
structions included with the accessory. Locate thermostat as-
sembly on a solid wall in the conditioned space to sense aver-
age temperature.
Route thermostat cable or equivalent single leads of no. 18
AWG (American Wire Gage) colored wire from subbase termi-
nals through conduit in unit to low-voltage connections as
shown on unit label wiring diagram and in Fig. 12.
NOTE: For wire runs up to 50 ft, use no. 18 AWG insulated
wire (35 C minimum). For 50 to 75 ft, use no. 16 AWG insu-
lated 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 to the thermostat and will
require a junction box and splice at the thermostat.
Set heat anticipator settings as indicated in Table 3. Settings
may be changed slightly to provide a greater degree of comfort
for a particular installation.
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 compressor failure.

IMPORTANT: If the supply voltage phase imbalance is
more than 2%, contact your local electric utility com-
pany immediately.

*Heater capacity (kW) is based on heater voltage of 208 v, 240 v,
380 v, 480 v, and 575 v. Heaters are rated at 240 v, 380 v, 480 v, or
600 v. If power distribution voltage to unit varies from rated heater
voltage, heater kW will vary accordingly.
†Fuse or HACR circuit breaker.
**Heaters are field installed only.
NOTES:
1. In compliance with NEC requirements for multimotor and combi-
nation 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 volt-
age is greater than 2%. Use the following formula to determine
the percent of 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 of voltage imbalance.
% Voltage Imbalance = 100 x
= 1.53%
This amount of phase imbalance is satisfactory as it is below the
maximum allowable 2%.
3. MCA calculation for units with electric heaters over 50 kW =
(1.25 x IFM amps) + (1.00 x heater FLA).

COMMISSIONING — The EconoMi$er saves energy when
it uses outdoor air to provide free cooling instead of mechani-
cal air conditioning. The EconoMi$er switchover strategy de-
termines if the outdoor air is suitable for free cooling. The
EconoMi$er chooses the switchover strategy with the most en-
ergy savings, provided that the required sensors are connected
and functioning normally.
Refer to Table 4 to determine the sensors required for each
strategy.
Differential Enthalpy Switchover Strategy — The differen-
tial enthalpy switchover strategy must be selected manually, if
required. To enable, press and hold the CONFIG button for 30
seconds, then release. The LED will flash twice to indicate the
change of configuration.
To return to single enthalpy mode, press and hold the CON-
FIG button for 30 seconds. The LED will flash once to indicate
the change of configuration.
DISCHARGE AIR THERMISTOR (DAT) — The discharge
air thermistor is factory-mounted on the supply-fan housing in
the fan section of the unit. The DAT is factory-wired to the
EconoMi$er Control Module.
CO2 CONTROL SETUP — If a CO2 sensor is not being
used, proceed to the next section. If a CO2 sensor is being used,
perform the following:
1. Determine the value at which you want the minimum
position of the dampers to begin opening to allow a
greater amount of outdoor air to enter. The range is
800 to 1,400 ppm.
2. Locate the CO2 SP (PPM) potentiometer and adjust to the
desired set point. See Fig. 16.
IMPORTANT: If a sensor stops functioning nor-
mally (becomes unreliable), the EconoMi$er
switches to the next best strategy.

MECHANICAL COOLING LOCKOUT — Determine the
outdoor-air temperature at which you want the mechanical
cooling (compressors) to be disabled. Locate the mechanical
cooling lockout (MECH CLG LOCKOUT) potentiometer. To
disable this feature, turn the potentiometer counterclockwise
(CCW) to the OFF position. Otherwise, set the value between
10 and 60 F. Mechanical cooling will not operate when the out-
door air temperature is below this value. See Fig. 16.
DRY BULB CHANGEOVER SET UP — Determine the dry
bulb changeover set point from Table 5. The settings are A, B,
C and D. Locate the ECON SP potentiometer and set the dry
bulb changeover set point. See Fig. 16. When the OAT is above
this set point, the damper is limited to minimum position
setting.
If a potentiometer fails, its setting will default to the values
in Table 6.

VENTILATION AIR (Minimum Position Set Up) — If ven-
tilation air is not required, skip this section. If ventilation air is
required, perform the following:
1. The indoor fan must be on to set the ventilation air.
Either put the thermostat in the continuous fan mode or
jumper the R and G terminals at the rooftop unit con-
nection board.
2. Locate the minimum position (MIN POS) potentiometer.
Turn the potentiometer full CCW to fully close the out-
door air dampers. Turn the potentiometer gradually
clockwise (CW) to the desired position. See Fig. 16.
3. Replace the filter access panel. See Fig. 18. Ensure the fil-
ter access panel is securely engaged.
4. Calculate the minimum airflow across the EconoMi$er.
a. Calculate % of outside air using the following
formula.
% Outdoor air through EconoMi$er
b. Multiply total CFM by percentage outdoor air, this
gives outdoor air volume in CFM.

sor input signal. Set the frequency to match the unit power sup-
ply (60 Hz).
Motormaster III Control — Recommended mounting location
is beneath the control box, mounted to the partition that sepa-
rates the control box section from the indoor section.
NOTE: If unit power is supplied through the roof curb and
basepan of the unit, mount the Motormaster III control on the
corner post adjacent to the conduit running from the basepan to
the bottom of the control box.
Step 10 — Install Humidistat for Optional
MoistureMiser Dehumidification Package —
MositureMiser dehumidification package operation can be
controlled by field installation of a Carrier-approved humidis-
tat. To install the humidistat perform the following procedure:
1. Locate humidistat on a solid interior wall in the condi-
tioned space. Location should be a well ventilated area
to sense average humidity.
2. Route thermostat cable or equivalent single leads of col-
ored wire from Humidistat terminals through conduit in
unit to the low voltage connection on the 2-pole terminal
strip (TB3) as shown in Fig. 28 and Fig. 29.
To avoid damage to the refrigerant coils and electrical com-
ponents, use recommended screw sizes only. Use care
when drilling holes.
NOTE: Dimensions in ( ) are in mm.

START-UP
Use the following information and Start-Up Checklist on
page CL-1 to check out unit PRIOR to start-up.
Unit Preparation — Check that unit has been installed in
accordance with these installation instructions and all applica-
ble codes.
Internal Wiring — Check all electrical connections in
unit control boxes; tighten as required.
Crankcase Heater (Size 028 and Units with
MoistureMiser Dehumidification Package
Only) — Heater is energized as long as there is power to unit
and compressor is not operating.
Compressor Mounting — Compressors are internally
spring mounted. Do not loosen or remove compressor hold-
down bolts.
Refrigerant Service Ports — Each refrigerant sys-
tem has a total of 3 Schrader-type service 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.
Compressor Rotation — It is important to be certain
the compressors are rotating in the proper direction. To deter-
mine whether or not compressors are rotating in the proper di-
rection:
1. Connect service gages to suction and discharge pressure
fittings.
2. Energize the compressor.
3. The suction pressure should drop and the discharge pres-
sure 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.
NOTE: When compressors are rotating in the wrong direction,
the unit will have increased noise levels and will not provide
heating and cooling.
After a few minutes of reverse operation, the scroll com-
pressor internal overload protection will open, which will acti-
vate the unit’s lockout and requires a manual reset. Reset is ac-
complished by turning the thermostat on and off.
Evaporator Fan — Fan belt and variable pulleys are fac-
tory installed. Remove tape from the fan pulley. See Table 7 for
Air Quantity Limits. See Tables 8-10 for Fan Performance
data. Be sure that fans rotate in the proper direction. See
Tables 11-13 for Static Pressure information for accessories
and options. See Table 14 for fan rpm at various fan motor pul-
ley settings. To alter fan performance, see Evaporator-Fan Per-
formance Adjustment section, page 25.
Table 7 — Air Quantity Limits
Condenser Fans and Motors — Fans and motors
are factory set. Refer to Condenser-Fan Adjustment section
(page 26) as required.
Return-Air Filters — Check that correct filters are in-
stalled in filter tracks. See Table 1. Do not operate unit without
return-air filters.
Outdoor-Air Inlet Screens — Outdoor-air inlet screens
must be in place before operating unit.
Accessory EconoMi$er Adjustment — Remove fil-
ter access panel. Check that outdoor-air damper blades are
closed and return-air damper blades are open.
EconoMi$er operation and adjustment is described in Base
Unit Operation and EconoMi$er Adjustment sections
(pages 23 and 27), respectively.
IMPORTANT: Unit power must be on for 24 hours prior
to start-up. Otherwise, damage to compressor may
result.

*Standard low-medium static drive range is 891 to 1179 rpm (for
208/230, 380 and 460 v units) or 1159 to 1429 rpm (for 575-v
units). Alternate high-static drive range is 1227 to 1550 (for 208/
230, 380, and 460 v units). The alternate high-static drive is not
available for 50TJ016 575-v units. Other rpms require a field-sup-
plied drive.
NOTES:
1. Maximum continuous bhp is 4.25 (208/230, 380 and 460 v) or
3.45 (575 v) and the maximum continuous watts are 3775 (208/
230, 380, and 460 v) or 3065 (575 v). 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., EconoMi$er) 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 11 for accessory/FIOP static pressure
information.
5. Extensive motor and drive testing on these units ensures that
the full horsepower 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 Carrier representative for details.

Base Unit Operation
COOLING, UNITS WITHOUT ECONOMI$ER — When
thermostat calls for cooling, terminals G and Y1 are energized.
The indoor (evaporator) fan contactor (IFC), and compressor
contactor no. 1 (C1) are energized and evaporator-fan motor,
compressor no. 1 and condenser fans start. The condenser-fan
motors run continuously while unit is cooling. If the thermostat
calls for a second stage of cooling by energizing Y2, compres-
sor contactor no. 2 (C2) is energized and compressor no. 2
starts.
HEATING, UNITS WITHOUT ECONOMI$ER (If Acces-
sory or Optional Heater is Installed) — Upon a call for heat-
ing through terminal W1, IFC and heater contactor no. 1 (HC1)
are energized. On units equipped for 2 stages of heat, when ad-
ditional heat is needed, HC2 is energized through W2.
COOLING UNITS WITH ECONOMI$ER — When the
OAT is above the ECON SP set point and the room thermostat
calls for Stage 1 cooling (R to G + Y1), the indoor-fan motors
(IFM) is energized and the EconoMi$er damper modulates to
minimum position. The compressor contactor and OFC are
energized to start the compressor and outdoor-fan motor
(OFM). After the thermostat is satisfied, the damper modulates
to the fully closed position when the IFM is deenergized.
When the OAT is below the ECON SP setting and the room
thermostat calls for Stage 1 cooling (R to G + Y1), the
EconoMi$er modulates to the minimum position when the
IFM is energized. The EconoMi$er provides Stage 1 of cooling
by modulating the return and outdoor air dampers to maintain a
55 F supply air set point. If the supply-air temperature (SAT) is
greater than 57 F, the EconoMi$er modulates open, allowing a
greater amount of outdoor air to enter the unit. If the SAT drops
below 53 F, the outdoor air damper modulates closed to reduce
the amount of outdoor air. When the SAT is between 53 and
57 F, the EconoMi$er maintains its position.
If outdoor air alone cannot satisfy the cooling requirements
of the conditioned space, and the OAT is above the MECH
CLG LOCKOUT set point, the EconoMi$er integrates free
cooling with mechanical cooling. This is accomplished by the
strategies below.
NOTE: Compressors have a two-minute Minimum On and
Minimum Off, which are accomplished by the strategies
below.
1. If Y1 is energized, and the room thermostat calls for Y2
(2-stage thermostat), the compressor and OFC are ener-
gized. The position of the EconoMi$er damper is main-
tained at its current value.
2. If Y1 is energized for more than 20 minutes, and Y2 is
not energized (whether or not a 2-stage thermostat is
used), the compressor and OFC are energized. The posi-
tion of the EconoMi$er damper is maintained at its cur-
rent value.
3. If Y1 is energized, and compressor no. 1 is already ener-
gized (see Step 2) and the room thermostat calls for Y2,
compressor no. 1 continues to operate. If Y2 remains
energized for more than 20 minutes, compressor no. 2 is
energized.
NOTE: Compressor no. 2 cannot be energized unless there is a
signal for Y2 from the space thermostat.
4. If compressor no. 2 is energized, and the Y2 signal from
the thermostat is satisfied, compressors 1 and 2 are deen-
ergized. Re-asserting Y2 will start compressor no. 1 and
(after a 20-minute interstage delay) compressor no. 2.
5. If compressor no. 1 is energized and the thermostat is sat-
isfied, compressor no. 1, the OFM, and IFM are deener-
gized and the EconoMi$er modulates closed.
When the OAT is below the MECH CLG LOCKOUT set
point, the compressors remain off.
FREEZE PROTECTION THERMOSTAT(S) — A freeze
protection thermostat (FPT) is located on the top and bottom of
the evaporator coil. It detects frost build-up and turns off the
compressor, allowing the coil to clear. Once frost has melted,
the compressor can be reenergized by resetting the compressor
lockout.
HEATING, UNITS WITH ECONOMI$ER (If Accessory or
Optional Heater is Installed) — When the room thermostat
calls for heat, the heating controls are energized as described in
the Heating, Units Without EconoMi$er section. The IFM is
energized and the EconoMi$er damper modulates to the mini-
mum position. When the thermostat is satisfied, the damper
modulates closed.
UNITS WITH MOISTUREMISER DEHUMIDIFICATION
PACKAGE — When thermostat calls for cooling, terminals G
and Y1 and/or Y2 and the compressor contactor C1 and/or C2
are energized. The indoor (evaporator) fan motor (IFM), com-
pressors, and outdoor (condenser) fan motors (OFM) start. The
OFMs run continuously while the unit is in cooling. As shipped
from the factory, both MoistureMiser dehumidification circuits
are always energized.
If MoistureMiser circuit modulation is desired, a field-
installed, wall-mounted humidistat is required. If the Mois-
tureMiser humidistat is installed and calls for the Mois-
tureMiser subcooler coil to operate, the humidistat internal
switch closes. This energizes the 3-way liquid line solenoid
valve coils (LLSV1 for circuit 1 and LLSV2 for circuit 2) of
the MoistureMiser circuits, forcing the warm liquid refrigerant
of the liquid line to enter the subcooler coils. See Fig. 30.
As the warm liquid passes through the subcooler coils, it is
exposed to the cold supply airflow coming off the evaporator
coils and the liquid is further cooled to a temperature approach-
ing the evaporator coil leaving-air temperature. The state of the
refrigerant leaving the subcooler coils is a highly subcooled liq-
uid refrigerant. The liquid then enters a thermostatic expansion
valve (TXV) where the liquid is dropped to the evaporator
pressure. The TXVs can throttle the pressure drop of the liquid
refrigerant and maintain proper conditions at the compressor
suction valves over a wide range of operating conditions. The
liquid proceeds to the evaporator coils at a temperature lower
than normal cooling operation. This lower temperature is what
increases the latent and sensible capacity of the evaporator
coils.
The 2-phase refrigerant passes through the evaporators and
is changed into a vapor. The air passing over the evaporator
coils will become colder than during normal operation as a re-
sult of the colder refrigerant temperatures. However, as it pass-
es over the subcooler coils, the air will be warmed, decreasing
the sensible capacity and reducing the sensible heat of the roof-
top unit.
As the refrigerant leaves the evaporator, the refrigerant
passes a subcooler control low-pressure switch (S-LPS1 for
circuit 1 or S-LPS2 for circuit 2) in the suction line. This low-
pressure switch will deactivate the MoistureMiser package
when the suction pressure reaches 60 psig. The subcooler con-
trol low-pressure switch is an added safety device to protect
against evaporator coil freeze-up during low ambient opera-
tion. The subcooler control low-pressure switch will only
deactivate the 3-way liquid line solenoid valve in the Mois-
tureMiser circuit. The compressors will continue to run as long
as there is a call for cooling, regardless of the position of the
subcooler control low-pressure switch. The 3-way solenoid
valve and the MoistureMiser package will be reactivated only
when the call for cooling has been satisfied, the subcooler con-
trol low-pressure switch has closed above 80 psig, and a new
call for cooling exists. The crankcase heaters on the scroll com-
pressors provide additional protection for the compressors due
to the additional refrigerant charge in the subcooler.
24
When the humidistat is satisfied, the humidistat internal
switch opens, cutting power to and deenergizing the LLSVs.
The refrigerant is routed back through the evaporators and the
sub-cooler coils are removed from the refrigerant loops. When
the thermostat is satisfied, C1 and C2 are deenergized and the
compressors, IFM, and OFMs shut off. If the thermostat
fan selector switch is in the ON position, the IFM will run
continuously.
SERVICE
Cleaning — Inspect unit interior at beginning of each heat-
ing and cooling season and as operating conditions require.
Remove unit top panel and/or side panels for access to unit
interior.
EVAPORATOR COIL — Clean as required with a commer-
cial coil cleaner.
NOTE: The 50TJ028 unit has a mist eliminator screen attached
to the evaporator coil to prevent condensate runoff at high wet-
bulb conditions. Check periodically and clean as necessary.
CONDENSER COIL — Clean condenser coil annually and
as required by location and outdoor-air conditions. Inspect coil
monthly — clean as required.
CONDENSATE DRAIN — Check and clean each year at
start of cooling season.
FILTERS — Clean or replace at start of each heating and cool-
ing season, or more often if operating conditions require. Refer
to Table 1 for type and size.
NOTE: The 50TJ028 unit requires industrial grade throwaway
filters capable of withstanding face velocities up to 625 fpm.
Ensure that replacement filters for the 50TJ028 units are rated
for 625 fpm.
OUTDOOR-AIR INLET SCREENS — Clean screens with
steam or hot water and a mild detergent. Do not use throwaway
filters in place of screens.
Lubrication
COMPRESSORS — Each compressor is charged with the
correct amount of oil at the factory. Conventional white oil
(Sontext 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 nameplate for original oil charge. A complete re-
charge should be four ounces less than the original oil charge.
When a compressor 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 reliability 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
Before performing service or maintenance operations on
unit, turn off main power switch to unit. Turn off accessory
heater power switch if applicable. Electrical shock could
cause personal injury.

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.
FAN SHAFT BEARINGS — For size 016 units, bearings are
permanently lubricated. No field lubrication is required. For
size 020-028 units, the bearings are of the pillow block type
and have grease fittings. The bearing opposite the motor end
has an extended tube line so it can be lubricated from the motor
side. Lubricate the bearings twice annually.
Typical lubricants are given below:
*Preferred lubricant because it contains rust and oxidation inhibitors.
CONDENSER AND EVAPORATOR-FAN MOTOR
BEARINGS — The condenser and evaporator-fan motors
have permanently-sealed bearings, so no field lubrication is
necessary.

EconoMi$er Adjustment
LED INDICATION — The EconoMi$er controller features
an onboard diagnostic LED (light-emitting diode) that flashes
to indicate its status. See Table 15 for flash codes. The control-
ler also has terminal connections (REM LED) for remotely
mounting an LED, if desired. The flash code priorities are as
follows:
1. On/Off or continuous flash
2. Critical fault
3. Non-critical fault
If any sensors are opened, shorted, or removed, the
EconoMi$er determines whether the failure is critical or non-
critical and flashes the appropriate code. If a non-critical sensor
fault occurs (i.e., outdoor air humidity), the EconoMi$er auto-
matically reconfigures its control strategy to a more appropriate
mode. If a critical sensor fault occurs (i.e., supply air sensor),
the EconoMi$er reverts to a safe mode of operation until the
sensor problem is resolved.
MANUAL CONFIGURATION PUSHBUTTON — The
EconoMi$er controller also features an onboard button (CON-
FIG) to help troubleshoot the system. See Fig. 16. The button
can perform 3 different functions.
Pressing the CONFIG button for more than three seconds,
but less than ten seconds and then releasing will start the auto-
matic test procedure. The damper will modulate fully open,
wait, and modulate closed. This process takes three minutes to
complete. Use this feature to determine if the actuator can be
commanded.
If the CONFIG button is pressed and held for ten seconds
and less than 30 seconds then released, the EconoMi$er con-
troller reconfigures its mode of operation based on the sensors
that are connected and functioning normally, and cancels the
automatic test procedure.
If the EconoMi$er controller recognized a non-critical
sensor fault, and flashed a code (i.e., FLASH 6, outdoor air
humidity sensor fault) the FLASH CODE will be cleared, and
normal operation begins. Ensure faulty sensor is removed
before clearing faults.
If the EconoMi$er controller recognizes a critical sensor
fault, and flashes a code (i.e., FLASH 4, discharge air thermo-
stat fault) the FLASH code will not be cleared, and the
EconoMi$er will remain in the safe operation mode. The
sensor fault must be corrected to enable EconoMi$er to revert
to normal operation.
If the CONFIG button is pressed and held for more than
30 seconds and released, the EconoMi$er controller will enable
the enthalpy comparison strategy (with outdoor air enthalpy
and return air enthalpy sensors installed).
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.
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 con-
taminants.
NO CHARGE — Use standard evacuating techniques. After
evacuating system, weigh in the specified amount of refriger-
ant (refer to Table 1).
LOW CHARGE COOLING — Using cooling charging chart
(see Fig. 36), 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 ensur-
ing the proper amount of liquid subcooling. 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.
TO USE THE COOLING CHARGING CHART — Use the
above temperature and pressure readings, and find the intersec-
tion point on the cooling charging chart. If intersection point on
chart is above line, add refrigerant. If intersection point on
chart is below line, carefully recover some of the charge. Re-
check suction pressure as charge is adjusted. NOTE: Indoor-air
CFM must be within normal operating range of unit. All out-
door 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.

MOISTUREMISER SYSTEM CHARGING — The system
charge for units with the MoistureMiser option is greater than
that of the standard unit alone. The charge for units with this
option is indicated on the unit nameplate drawing. To charge
systems using the MoistureMiser Dehumidification package,
fully evacuate, recover, and re-charge the system to the name-
plate specified charge level. To check or adjust refrigerant
charge on systems using the MoistureMiser Dehumidification
package, charge per the standard subcooling charts. The sub-
cooler MUST be deenergized to use the charging charts. The
charts reference a liquid pressure (psig) and temperature at a
point between the condenser coil and the subcooler coil. A tap
is provided on the unit to measure liquid pressure entering the
subcooler (leaving the condenser).
Filter Drier — Replace whenever refrigerant system is ex-
posed to atmosphere.
Protective Devices
COMPRESSOR PROTECTION
Overcurrent — Each compressor has internal line break motor
protection, except the circuit no. 1 on the 50TJ028 unit. Com-
pressor no. 1 on the 50TJ028 unit uses an electronic module lo-
cated with the compressor junction box, to provide motor pro-
tection. This electronic module monitors winding and dis-
charge temperatures. If these temperatures reach the trip
values, the module interrupts the control line and causes the
compressor to switch off.
Crankcase Heater — Only the 50TJ028 unit and units with
the optional MoistureMiser Dehumidification system are
equipped with a 70-watt crankcase heater to prevent absorption
of liquid refrigerant by oil in the crankcase when the compres-
sor is idle. The crankcase heater is energized whenever there is
a main power to the unit and the compressor is not energized.
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 CLO (compressor lockout) will lock the compressors off.
To reset, manually move the thermostat setting.
EVAPORATOR FAN MOTOR PROTECTION — A manu-
al 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.
CONDENSER-FAN MOTOR PROTECTION — Each
condenser-fan motor is internally protected against
overtemperature.
HIGH- AND LOW-PRESSURE SWITCHES — If either
switch trips, or if the compressor overtemperature switch acti-
vates, that refrigerant circuit will be automatically locked out
by the CLO. To reset, manually move the thermostat setting.
FREEZE PROTECTION THERMOSTAT (FPT) — An FPT
is located on the top and bottom of the evaporator coil. It de-
tects frost build-up and turns off the compressor, allowing the
coil to clear. Once the frost has melted, the compressor can be
reenergized.
Relief Devices — All units have relief devices to protect
against damage from excessive pressures (e.g., fire). These de-
vices protect the high and low side.
Control Circuit, 24-V — This control circuit is protect-
ed against overcurrent by a 3.2-amp circuit breaker. Breaker
can be reset. If it trips, determine cause of trouble before
resetting.
Replacement Parts — A complete list of replacement
parts may be obtained from any Carrier distributor upon
request.
EconoMi$er LEDs — The EconoMi$er control module
has an LED for diagnostic purposes. The flash code identifica-
tion is shown in Table 15.
Optional Hinged Access Doors — When the optional
service package is ordered or the if the hinged access doors
option is ordered, the unit will be provided with external and
internal hinged access doors to facilitate service.
Four external hinged access doors are provided. All external
doors are provided with 2 large 1/4 turn latches with folding
bail-type handles. (Compressor access doors have one latch.) A
single door is provided for filter and drive access. One door is
provided for control box access. The control box access door is
interlocked with the non-fused disconnect which must be in the
OFF position to open the door. Two doors are provided for ac-
cess to the compressor compartment.
Two internal access doors are provided inside the filter/
drive access door. The filter access door (on the left) is secured
by 2 small 1/4 turn latches with folding bail-type handles. This
door must be opened prior to opening the drive access door.
The drive access door is shipped with 2 sheet metal screws
holding the door closed. Upon initial opening of the door, these
screws may be removed and discarded. The door is then held
shut by the filter access door, which closes over it.
IMPORTANT: After prolonged shutdown or servicing,
energize the crankcase heaters for 24 hours before start-
ing the compressors.
