SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installation and servicing of air-conditioning equipment can
be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical compo-
nents. Only trained and qualified service personnel should in-
stall, repair, or service air-conditioning equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform the basic maintenance
functions of cleaning coils and filters and replacing filters. All
other operations should be performed by trained service 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.
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
WARNING
Before performing service or maintenance operations on
unit, turn off main power switch to unit. Electrical shock
could cause personal injury.
WARNING
1. Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service,
or maintenance can cause property damage, personal
injury, or loss of life. Refer to the User’s Information
Manual provided with this unit for more details.
2. Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable va-
pors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
What to do if you smell gas:
1. DO NOT try to light any appliance.
2. DO NOT touch any electrical switch, or use any
phone in your building.
3. IMMEDIATELY call your gas supplier from a neigh-
bor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.
4. If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire
department.
WARNING
Disconnect gas piping from unit when pressure testing at
pressure greater than 0.5 psig. Pressures greater than
0.5 psig will cause gas valve damage resulting in hazardous
condition. If gas valve is subjected to pressure greater than
0.5 psig, it must be replaced before use. When pressure
testing field-supplied gas piping at pressures of 0.5 psig or
less, a unit connected to such piping must be isolated by
closing the manual gas valve(s).
CAUTION
1. All panels must be in place when rigging or damage
to unit may occur.
2. Unit is not designed for handling by fork truck.

ROOF CURB — For vertical discharge units, assemble or in-
stall accessory roof curb in accordance with instructions
shipped with this accessory. See Fig. 1-3. Install insulation,
cant strips, roofing, and counter flashing as shown. Ductwork
can be installed to roof curb before unit is set in place. Curb
should be level. This is necessary to permit unit drain to func-
tion properly. Unit leveling tolerance is shown in Fig. 1-3.
Refer to Accessory Roof Curb Installation Instructions for
additional information as required. When accessory roof curb
is used, unit may be installed on class A, B, or C roof covering
material.
ALTERNATE UNIT SUPPORT — When the preferred curb
or slab mount cannot be used, support unit with sleepers on pe-
rimeter, using unit curb support area. If sleepers cannot be
used, support long sides of unit (refer to Fig. 4-10) with a mini-
mum number of 4-in. x 4-in. pads spaced as follows:
48AJ,AK,AW,AY020-035 units require 3 pads on each side;
48AJ,AK,AW,AY036-050 units require 4 pads on each side;
48AJ,AK,AW,AY051 and 060 units require 6 pads on each
side. Unit may sag if supported by corners only.
Step 2 — Rig and Place Unit — Inspect unit for
transportation damage. See Tables 1-6 for physical data and
specifications. File any claim with transportation agency.
Do not drop unit; keep upright. Use spreader bars over unit
to prevent sling or cable damage. This unit must be handled
with a crane and can not be handled by a fork truck. Level by
using unit frame as a reference; leveling tolerance is shown in
Fig. 1-3. See Fig. 10 for additional information. Unit operating
weight is shown in Table 2.
NOTE: On retrofit jobs, ductwork may be attached to the old
unit instead of a roof curb. Be careful not to damage ductwork
when removing old unit. Attach existing ductwork to roof curb
instead of unit.
Four lifting lugs are provided on the unit base rails as shown
in Fig. 4-10. Refer to rigging instructions on unit.
POSITIONING — Maintain clearance, per Fig. 4-10, around
and above unit to provide minimum distance from combustible
materials, proper airflow, and service access.
Do not install unit in an indoor location. Do not locate unit
air inlets near exhaust vents or other sources of contaminated
air. For proper unit operation, adequate combustion and venti-
lation air must be provided in accordance with Section 5.3 (Air
for Combustion and Ventilation) of the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1 (American National Standards Institute).
Although unit is weatherproof, guard against water from
higher level runoff and overhangs.
Locate mechanical draft system flue assembly at least 4 ft
from any opening through which combustion products could
enter the building, and at least 4 ft from any adjacent building.
When unit is located adjacent to public walkways, flue assem-
bly must be at least 7 ft above grade.
ROOF MOUNT — Check building codes for weight distribu-
tion requirements. See Fig. 11. Unit operating weight is shown
in Table 2.
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.
NOTE: Due to width of the horizontal supply and return duct-
work, provisions should be made for servicing of the outdoor
air filters (i.e., catwalk over ductwork).
Ducts passing through an unconditioned space must be in-
sulated and covered with a vapor barrier. Outlet grilles must not
lie directly below unit discharge. The return duct must have a
90-degree elbow before opening into the building space if the
unit is equipped with power exhaust.
To attach ductwork to roof curb, insert duct approximately
10 to 11 in. up into roof curb. Connect ductwork to 14-gage
roof curb material with sheet metal screws driven from inside
the duct.
Follow AMCA (Air Movement and Control Association)
guidelines relating to ductwork connections to the unit. These
guidelines recommend a minimum 21/2 equivalent duct diame-
ters of straight duct connected to supply air inlet and outlet
openings before any transitions, fittings, dampers, etc. Failure
to adhere to these guidelines may result in system effects which
can impact the unit’s ability to achieve published performance.
Step 4 — Make Unit Duct Connections
48AJ AND AK UNITS — Unit is shipped for thru-the-
bottom duct connections. Field-fabricated ductwork should be
attached to the roof curb. Supply and return duct dimensions
are shown in Fig. 4-6. Air distribution is shown in Fig. 12.
Refer to installation instructions shipped with roof curb for
more information.
48AW AND AY UNITS — Remove shipping covers from
supply and return air openings. Attach field-supplied ductwork
to unit. Connect to the unit with a single duct for all supply
openings and with a single duct for all return openings.
Splitting of the airflow into branch ducts should not be done at
the unit. Sufficient duct length should be used prior to branch-
ing to ensure the air temperatures are well mixed within the
ductwork. See Fig. 7-9 for duct opening dimensions. Secure all
ducts to building structure. Air distribution is shown in Fig. 7-9
and Fig. 13.
Install accessory barometric relief or power exhaust in the
field-fabricated return ductwork. Refer to Step 10 — Position
Power Exhaust/Barometric Relief Damper Hood section on
page 33 for more information.
Instructions continued on page 19.
IMPORTANT: The gasketing of the unit to the roof curb is
critical for a watertight seal. Install gasket with the roof
curb as shown in Fig. 1-3. Improperly applied gasket can
also result in air leaks and poor unit performance.
WARNING
For vertical supply and return units, tools or parts could
drop into ductwork and cause an injury. Install a 90-degree
elbow turn in the supply and return ductwork between the
unit and the conditioned space. If a 90-degree elbow cannot
be installed, then a grille of sufficient strength and density
should be installed to prevent objects from falling into the
conditioned space.

Step 5 — Install Flue Hood
48AJ,AK,AW,AY020-050 UNITS — Flue hood is shipped
inside gas section of unit. To install, secure flue hood to access
panel. See Fig. 14.
48AJ,AK,AW,AY051 AND 060 UNITS — Flue hood and
wind baffle are shipped inside gas section of unit. To install, se-
cure flue hood to access panel. Install the two pieces of the
wind baffle over the flue hood. See Fig. 15.
NOTE: When properly installed, flue hood will line up with
combustion fan housing. See Fig. 16.
Step 6 — Trap Condensate Drain — See Fig. 4-9
for drain location. Condensate drain is open to atmosphere and
must be trapped. Install a trapped drain at the drain location.
One 1-in. FPT coupling is provided inside the unit evaporator
section for condensate drain connection. A trap at least 4-in.
deep must be used. See Fig. 17. Trap must be installed to pre-
vent freeze-up.
Condensate pans are sloped so that water will completely
drain from the condensate pan to comply with indoor air quali-
ty guidelines. The condensate drain pans are not insulated.
Step 7 — Install Gas Piping — Unit is equipped for
use with natural gas. Installation must conform with local
building codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the Na-
tional Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.
Install manual gas shutoff valve with a 1/8-in. NPT pressure
tap for test gage connection at unit. Field gas piping must in-
clude sediment trap and union. See Fig. 18. An 1/8-in. NPT is
also located on the gas manifold adjacent to the gas valve.
WARNING
Do not pressure test gas supply while connected to unit.
Always disconnect union before servicing. Serious injury
could result.

Size gas-supply piping for 0.5-in. wg maximum pressure
drop. Do not use supply pipe smaller than unit gas connection.
OPTIONAL STAGED GAS UNITS — See Table 7 for staged
gas information. Staging pattern is selected during controls
start-up.
For complete information and service instructions for
Staged Gas Control Units, see Control Operation and Trouble-
shooting literature.
Table 7 — 48A Series Staged Gas Control
Step 8 — Make Electrical Connections
POWER WIRING — Units are factory wired for the voltage
shown on the unit nameplate.
Provide a unit safety disconnect switch in the main power
supply to each unit (see Fig. 19). Select switch size and mount-
ing location in accordance with applicable local codes or
National Electrical Code (NEC). If combining the functions of
safety disconnect with maximum overcurrent protection
(MOCP) fuses (“fused disconnect”), coordinate safety switch
size with MOCP size data as marked on unit informative plate.
Unit may be equipped with optional factory-installed non-
fused disconnect switch (see Fig. 19). Provide maximum
overcurrent protection devices (fuses or HACR breakers, per
local codes) in branch circuit wiring remote from unit. Observe
requirements of NEC Article 440. Install service switch
upstream of remote fuses if required.
The main power terminal block is suitable for use with
aluminum or copper wire. See Fig. 19. Units have circuit
breakers for compressors, fan motors, and control circuit. The
unit must be electrically grounded in accordance with local
codes, or in absence of local codes, with NEC, ANSI C1-latest
year.
FIELD POWER SUPPLY — Unit is factory wired for volt-
age shown on unit nameplate. See Tables 8A and 8B for elec-
trical data.
Field wiring can be brought into the unit from bottom
(through basepan and roof curb) or through side of unit (corner
post next to control box).
A 31/2-in. NPT coupling for field power wiring and a 3/4-in.
NPT coupling for 24-v control wiring are provided in basepan.
In the side post, there are two 21/2-in. (48A020-035) or 3-in.
(48A036-060) knockouts for the field power wiring. See
Fig. 4-9. If control wiring is to be brought in through the side of
unit, a 7/8-in. diameter hole is provided in the condenser side
post next to the control box.
Do not route control wiring in the same conduit as power
wiring.
If disconnect box is mounted to corner post, be careful not
to drill or screw into the condenser coil.
IMPORTANT: Natural gas pressure at unit gas connection
must not be less than 5 in. wg or greater than 13.5 in. wg.

*Fuse or HACR circuit breaker per NEC.
NOTES:
1. In compliance with NEC requirements for multimotor and combination
load equipment (refer to NEC Articles 430 and 440), the overcurrent
protective device for the unit shall be fuse or HACR breaker. The
Canadian units may be fuse or circuit breaker.
2. Unbalanced 3-Phase Supply Voltage
Never operate a motor where a phase imbalance in supply voltage is
greater than 2%. Use the following formula to determine the percent
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 max-
imum allowable 2%.

*Fuse or HACR circuit breaker per NEC.
NOTES:
1. In compliance with NEC requirements for multimotor and combination load
equipment (refer to NEC Articles 430 and 440), the overcurrent protective
device for the unit shall be fuse or HACR breaker. The Canadian units may
be fuse or circuit breaker.
2. Unbalanced 3-Phase Supply Voltage
Never operate a motor where a phase imbalance in supply voltage is
greater than 2%. Use the following formula to determine the percent of volt-
age 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%.

connect to power terminal block (see Power Wiring section on
page 20).
Low-voltage wiring must be run in watertight conduit from
the basepan to control box and through 7/8-in. diameter hole
provided in bottom of unit control box. Field-supplied strain
relief must be used going into the box. After wiring is in
control box, make connections to proper terminals on terminal
blocks (see Field Control Wiring section on this page).

field-supplied watertight conduit into unit through 21/2-in. (siz-
es 020-035) or 3-in. (sizes 036-060) hole.
Use field-supplied strain relief going into control box
through 35/8-in. diameter hole provided. After wires are in unit
control box, connect to power terminal block (see Power Wir-
ing section on page 20).
Bring low-voltage control wiring through the 7/8-in. diame-
ter hole provided in the condenser section side post. Use strain
relief going into 7/8-in. diameter hole in bottom of unit control
box.
After wiring is in control box, make connection to proper
terminals on terminal blocks (see Field Control Wiring section
below).
Affix crankcase heater sticker (located in the installers
packet) to unit disconnect switch.
Voltage to compressor terminals during compressor operation
must be within the voltage range indicated on the unit name-
plate. Phases must be balanced within 2%.
Use the formula in Tables 8A and 8B to determine the per-
centage of voltage imbalance.
Unit failure as a result of operation on improper line voltage
or excessive phase imbalance constitutes abuse and may cause
damage to electrical components.
For transformer 1 move the black wires connected to termi-
nal H2 and connect it to terminal H3.
For transformers 2-4, that are used for the 24-volt control
circuits, connect as follows:
1. Remove cap from red (208 v) wire.
2. Remove cap from spliced orange (230 v) wire. Discon-
nect orange wire from black unit power wire.
3. Cap orange wire.
4. Splice red wire and black unit power wire. Cap wires.
If the unit is equipped with the optional convenience outlet
connect the yellow wire to H2 on transformer 5.
FIELD CONTROL WIRING — The 48A Series units sup-
port a large number of control options that can impact the field
control wiring.
The control options that the unit can provide relate to the
following parameters:
• CV (constant volume), VAV (variable air volume),
VVT® (variable volume variable temperature) or
Carrier TEMP system control operation.
• Stand-alone with a thermostat (CV) or with a space sen-
sor (CV and VAV)
• Network application with CCN (Carrier Comfort
Network®) or other networks
• Demand ventilation with CO2 sensor
• Economizer and economizer with changeover control
• Staged gas heat
• Building and duct static pressure control
• Fire shutdown and smoke control
• Diagnostics and monitoring
For constant volume applications a thermostat (T-Stat) or
space temperature sensor (SPT) will be required.
T-STAT (Conventional Thermostat) — Unit can be con-
trolled with a Carrier-approved accessory electro-mechanical
or electronic thermostat that has two stages of cooling, two
stages of heating control and an output for indoor fan control. It
may also include time of day scheduling or use the scheduling
routines built into the ComfortLink™ controls.
Install thermostat according to the installation instructions
included with accessory thermostat and the unit wiring dia-
grams. Locate thermostat assembly on a solid interior wall in
the conditioned space to sense average temperature.
Route thermostat cable or equivalent single leads of colored
wire from subbase terminals through conduit into unit to low-
voltage connection in the main control box. For thermostat
TB4 connections see Fig. 20.
NOTE: For wire runs up to 50 ft, use no. 18 AWG (American
Wire Gage) insulated wire (35 C minimum). For 50 to 75 ft,
use no. 16 AWG insulated wire (35 C minimum). For over
75 ft, use no. 14 AWG insulated wire (35 C Minimum). All
wire larger than no. 18 AWG cannot be directly connected at
the thermostat and will require a junction box and splice at the
thermostat. Set heat anticipator settings as follows:
Settings may be changed slightly to provide a greater degree of
comfort for a particular installation.
IMPORTANT: The VAV (variable air volume) units use
variable frequency drives, which generate and can radiate
radio frequency energy. If units are not installed and used
in accordance with these instructions, they may cause radio
interference. They have been tested and found to comply
with limits of a Class A computing device as defined by
FCC (Federal Communications Commission) regulations,
Subpart J of Part 15, which are designed to provide reason-
able protection against such interference when operated in
a commercial environment.
WARNING
The unit must be electrically grounded in accordance with
local codes and NEC ANSI/NFPA 70 (National Fire
Protection Association). Electrical shock could cause per-
sonal injury.
IMPORTANT: If the supply voltage phase imbalance is
more than 2%, contact your local electric utility company
immediately.
IMPORTANT: On 208/230-v units, transformers 1-5 are
wired for 230-v. If 208/230-v unit is to be run with 208-v
power supply, the transformers must be rewired as follows:
IMPORTANT: BE CERTAIN UNUSED WIRES ARE
CAPPED. Failure to do so may damage the transformers.

Staged Gas Control Option Thermistors — If the unit is
equipped with the staged gas heat option, supply-air ther-
mistors must be installed. Three supply-air thermistors are
shipped with staged gas units and are inside the heating sec-
tion. The supply-air thermistors should be located in the supply
duct with the following criteria:
• Downstream of the heat exchanger cells
• Equally spaced as far as possible from the heat
exchanger cells
• In a duct location where none of the supply-air ther-
mistors are within sight of the heat exchanger cells
• In a duct location with good mixed supply-air portion of
the unit.
SPT (Space Temperature Sensor) — For constant volume ap-
plications the ComfortLink™ controls can also be used with
T55 and T56 space temperature sensors that use a 10K ther-
mistor. The T56 sensor also has the capability for a config-
urable temperature set point offset. For variable air volume ap-
plications only the T55 sensor can be used.
Install sensor according to the installation instructions
included with accessory sensor. Locate sensor assembly on a
solid interior wall in the conditioned space to sense average
temperature.
Run wiring to the space sensor as shown in Fig. 21.
Note that when the remote sensor is used, the red jumper
wires provided must be connected from TB4 terminal 4 to 5
and TB4 terminal 5 to 1.
Both the T55 and T56 have a CCN communications port and
this should be wired to the CCN Communications TB3 board if
it is desired to have access to the CCN through the sensor. If
more than one T-55 sensor is being used and averaged, sensors
must be wired in multiples of 4 or 9 as shown in Fig. 22.

T58 Communicating Thermostat — Carrier also has a fully
communicating thermostat which, if used, will be wired to the
CCN communication connections on TB3 as described in the
Carrier Comfort Network® Interface section below.
Carrier Comfort Network Interface — The rooftop units can
be connected to the CCN system. The communication bus
wiring is supplied and installed in the field. Wiring consists of
shielded, 3-conductor cable with drain wire. The system
elements are connected to the communication bus in a daisy
chain arrangement. The positive pin of each system element
communication connector must be wired to the positive pins of
the system element on either side of it, the negative pins must be
wired to the negative pins, and the signal pins must be wired to
signal ground pins. Wiring connections for CCN should be
made at the TB3 terminal block using the screw terminals. The
TB3 board also contains an RJ14 CCN plug that can be used to
connect a field service computer or other CCN device tempo-
rarily. There is also an RJ14 LEN (local equipment network)
connection that is used to connect a Navigator™ device or
download software.
Conductors and drain wire must be 20 AWG minimum
stranded, tinned copper. Individual conductors must be insulat-
ed with PVC, PVC/nylon, vinyl, Teflon, or polyethylene. An
aluminum/polyester 100% foil shield and an outer jacket of
PVC, PVC/nylon, chrome vinyl, or Teflon with a minimum
operating temperature range of –20 C to 60 C (–4 F to 140 F) is
required. Table 9 lists cables that meet the requirements.
Table 9 — CCN Connection Approved Shield Cable
Table 10 — Color Code Recommendations
If a cable with a different color scheme is selected, a similar
color code should be adopted for the entire network. At each
system element, the shields of the communication bus cables
must be tied together. If the communication bus is entirely
within one building, the resulting continuous shield must be
connected to a ground at one point only. If the communication
bus cable exits from one building and enters another, the
shields must be connected to grounds at the lightning suppres-
sor in each building where the cable enters or exits the building
(one point per building only).
To connect the unit to the network:
1. Turn off power to the control box.
2. Cut the CCN wire and strip the ends of the red (+), white
(ground), and black (–) conductors. (If a different net-
work color scheme is used, substitute appropriate colors.)
3. Remove the 3-pin male plug from the base control board
in the main control box, and connect the wires as follows:
a. Insert and secure the red (+) wire to terminal 1 of
the 3-pin plug.
b. Insert and secure the white (ground) wire to termi-
nal 2 of the 3-pin plug.
c. Insert and secure the black (–) wire to terminal 3 of
the 3-pin plug.
4. Insert the plug into the existing 3-pin mating connector on
the base module in the main control box.
VAV Units with Heat — For variable air volume units that
will use heat, the variable air volume terminals should be
interlocked with the unit at TB5 terminals 1 and 2.
Demand Ventilation — The unit can be equipped with a CO2
sensor for use in demand ventilation. This can be factory
supplied and will be mounted in the return duct. It can also be
field supplied and mounted in the return duct or in the space.
Connect the field-installed 4 to 20 mA sensor to TB5 terminal
6 and 7. Do not remove the factory-installed 182-ohm resistor.
If an outdoor air quality sensor is used then it should be
wired to terminal 11 and 12 on TB6. This will require the use
of the optional controls expansion module.
Remote IAQ Override — If the control is being used with non
Carrier building management system it supports the use of the
remote IAQ override switch. This should be connected to
TB6 terminal 13 and 14. Use of this will require the optional
controls expansion module.
Remote Economizer Position Control — The ComfortLink™
controls will normally control the position of the economizer,
but it can also support field control of the economizer position
through a 4 to 20 mA signal. If this is used it should be con-
nected to TB5 terminal 6 and 7. If the signal is a 4 to 20 mA
signal then leave the 182-ohm resistor in place.
Remote Economizer Enable — If the control is being used
with other building management systems and the system will
control the enabling and disabling of the economizer free cool-
ing, this switch input can be connected to TB6 terminals 1 and
2. Note that the controls also support integrated economizer
changeover using outdoor dry bulb, differential dry bulb,
outdoor enthalpy and differential enthalpy.
Remote Occupancy Switch — For interface to other building
management systems the control also supports a switch input
for remote occupancy signals. This wiring should be connected
to terminal TB6 terminal 1 and 3.
Remote Economizer Minimum Position Control — If the
ComfortLink control is controlling the economizer, but a remote
minimum position is required, then an external 100K potentiom-
eter can be connected to TB5 terminal 6 and 7. Remove the
factory-installed 182-ohm resistor.
Smoke Sensor Interface — The ComfortLink control includes
an optional factory-installed return air smoke detector. Remote
alarm circuits can be wired to TB5 terminal 8 and 9.
Fire Shutdown and Smoke Control — The control supports
interface to fire and smoke control systems and allows for the
following system overrides from remote switch inputs.
• Fire Shutdown — Connect to TB6 terminals 8 and 9.
• Smoke Pressurization — Connect to TB6 terminal 12
and 13. This requires the use of the optional controls
expansion module.
• Smoke Evacuation — Connect to TB6 terminal 12 and
14. This requires the use of the optional controls expan-
sion module.
• Smoke Purge — Connect to TB6 terminal 12 and 15.
This requires the use of the optional controls expansion
module.
Demand Limiting — The control can also be used with demand
limiting control from remote building management systems. If a
two stage system is going to be used with Redline Limiting
where the machine is not allowed to increase load and Load Shed
where the load is decreased to a configurable limit in capacity
then these can be connected to TB6 terminals 4 and 5 and 5 and
6. This requires use of the controls expansion module.

DAMPER — Hoods are used on all units with economizer or
adjustable self-closing fixed outdoor air damper.
NOTE: If accessory power exhaust or barometric relief pack-
ages are being added to the unit, install power exhaust or baro-
metric relief before installing economizer hoods.
Economizer Hood Assembly — The economizer hood is
shipped in a package secured to the outside of the unit. The
hood assemblies must be field-assembled. The 48AW,AY units
are side supply and side return. The return duct limits access to
economizer filters from below.
The 48AJ,AK,AW,AY020-050 units have two hoods on ev-
ery unit. The 48AJ,AK,AW,AY051 and 060 units have 3 hoods
on every unit.
NOTE: Before assembly of the economizer hood, check along
the outer edges of the economizer assembly for any seal strip
protruding past the flanges. Trim the excess seal strip so that it
is flush with the economizer assembly flanges.
Perform the following procedure to assemble the economizer
hood.
1. Apply black seal strip (provided) to outside top-edge of

Step 10 — Position Power Exhaust/Barometric
Relief Damper Hood — All units are shipped with the
hoods folded inside the unit in a shipping position. For 48AJ,
and AK units the hood must be tilted out once the unit is in-
stalled. On 48AW, AY units, (designed for horizontal supply
and return) the assemblies will have to be relocated to return
ductwork. See Fig. 31 for dimensions and details.
All electrical connections have been made and adjusted at
the factory. The power exhaust blowers and barometric relief
dampers are shipped assembled and tilted back into the unit for
shipping. Brackets and extra screws are shipped in shrink wrap
around the dampers. If ordered, each unit will have 4
(48AJ,AK,AW,AY020-050 units) or 6 (48AJ,AK,AW,AY051
and 060 units) power exhaust blowers and motors or baromet-
ric relief dampers.
1. Remove 9 screws holding each damper assembly in
place. See Fig. 32. Each damper assembly is secured with
3 screws on each side and 3 screws along the bottom.
Save screws.
2. Pivot each damper assembly outward until edges of
damper assembly rest against inside wall of unit.
3. Secure each damper assembly to unit with 6 screws
across top (3 screws provided) and bottom (3 screws
from Step 1) of damper.
4. With screws saved from Step 1, install brackets on each
side of damper assembly.
5. Remove tape from damper blades.

Step 11 — Route VAV Static Pressure Sensors
VAV DUCT PRESSURE TRANSDUCER — The VAV duct
pressure transducer (VAV inverter pressure transducer) is locat-
ed behind the filter access door on the lower inner panel. See
Fig. 33. A section of field-supplied 1/4-in. plastic tubing must
be run from the high pressure tap on the differential pressure
switch and connected to a field-supplied tap in the supply-air
duct. The tap is usually located 2/3 of the way out on the main
supply duct. Remove plug button in panel to route tubing.
VAV BUILDING PRESSURE TRANSDUCER — The VAV
building pressure transducer (modulating power exhaust pres-
sure transducer) is located behind the filter access door on the
lower inner panel. See Fig. 33. A section of field-supplied
1/4-in. plastic tubing must be run from the high pressure tap on
the differential pressure switch to the conditioned space. The
pressure tube must be terminated in the conditioned space
where a constant pressure is required. This location is usually
in an entrance lobby so that the building exterior doors will
open and close properly. Remove plug button in panel to route
tubing.
The low pressure tap is factory-routed to the atmosphere.
For a positive-pressure building, route the high tap to building
air and low tap to atmosphere. For a negative-pressure

Step 12 — Install All Accessories — After all the
factory-installed options have been adjusted, install all field-
installed accessories. Refer to the accessory installation instruc-
tions included with each accessory.
The 48A Series units have a large number of factory-
installed options which were previously available only as
accessories. Some of the available options can also be installed
in the field if needed. In most cases the units have been
pre-wired so that the accessories can be easily installed.
Instructions are shipped with each accessory. Configuration of
the controls for these accessories as well as the factory-installed
options can be found in the Controls, Start-Up, Operation,
Service and Troubleshooting Book. The following is a list of
some of the common accessories:
• Thermostats and space temperature sensors
• LP (liquid propane) conversion kit
• Accessory barometric relief damper
• Accessory power exhaust
• Non-modulating to modulating power exhaust
• Condenser coil hail guards
• Outdoor humidity sensor (used for economizer enthalpy
changeover)
• Return air humidity sensors (used for economizer
differential enthalpy changeover)
• Return air smoke detector
• Controls expansion module (used for interface to build-
ing management systems, not typically needed on
system with the Carrier Comfort Network® [CCN] sys-
tem)
• Plugged filter sensor
• Motormaster® V low ambient head pressure control
Step 13 — Field Modifications
DUCTWORK
Bottom Return Units (48AJ and AK) Field-Modified for
Side Return — The 48AJ and AK units with bottom return air
connections may be field-modified to accommodate side return
air connections.
Conversion to horizontal return requires that the bottom
return openings of the unit must be sealed with airtight panels
capable of supporting the weight of a person. The return
ductwork connection locations on the side of the unit are higher
than normal (31-in. high). Unit-mounted power exhaust or
barometric relief cannot be used because of return air ductwork
will cover the power exhaust or barometric relief installation
locations. Power exhaust or barometric relief may be installed
in the return air ductwork.
To convert the unit, perform the following:
1. Seal the bottom return openings of the unit with airtight
panels capable of supporting the weight of a person.
2. Remove the panels located below the economizer
outdoor-air dampers. These openings will be used for the
return-air ductwork. There are 2 panels on 48AJ,AK020-
050 units. There are 3 panels on 48AJ,AK051 and 060
and units. These openings are normally used for power
exhaust or barometric relief.
3. Run the return air ductwork up to the openings. One
single duct is recommended to connect to the unit over
the return air openings. See Fig. 34. The return duct must
incorporate a minimum 3/4-in. flange for connection to
the unit cabinet. The unit does not have duct flanges for
this conversion.
Side Supply and Return Units (48AW,AY) with Field-
Installed Power Exhaust in Return Duct — Space must be
available in the return duct to mount the power exhaust fan
(gravity relief) modules. Dimensions and suggested locations
are shown in Fig. 34. These instructions are a guideline and not
a comprehensive procedure. The design contractor must pro-
vide some design initiative.
The wiring harness that is provided with the power exhaust
accessory is not long enough for the fan modules to be mount-
ed in the return air duct. Field-supplied wiring must be spliced
into the harness. Use a junction box at each splice. The wiring
may be run in the return duct, or externally in conduit. A ser-
vice access panel will be needed near each power exhaust fan.
IMPORTANT: Carrier recommends the installation of
field-fabricated wind baffles on all vertically oriented
condenser coils when operating in environments with
prevailing winds of more than 5 MPH and where tem-
peratures drop below 32 F. See the Motormaster
accessory installation guide for instructions.
IMPORTANT: The following section is a guideline and not
a comprehensive procedure to field modify the units. The
installing contractor must provide some design initiative.
Field-conversion is complex and is not recommended.
Units with electric heat must not be converted because of
potential heating mode operating problems.
