INTRODUCTION
Models FEM4X, FSM4X, and FXM4X are designed for
maximum flexibility and can be used for upflow, horizontal left
or right, and downflow applications (accessory kit required
for downflow or horizontal right).
Model FSU4X is designed for upflow installation, and can be
field modified for downflow and horizontal left or right
applications (accessory kits required for downflow or
horizontal).
FEM4X and FXM4X models are available for system sizes
1-1/2 - 5 tons (18,000 - 60,000 BTUH) nominal cooling
capacity.

FEM4X and FXM4X models use an ECM motor and have a
factory installed and appropriately sized hard shut-off TXV
metering device and are for R-410A refrigerant ONLY.
FSM4X and FSU4X models use a PSC motor and have a
factory installed and appropriately sized hard shut-off TXV
metering device and are for R-410A refrigerant ONLY.
Factory approved electric heater packages are available in
sizes 3kW through 30kW. See Product Specification
literature for available accessory kits.

FSM4X, and FSU4X models are available for system size 5
ton (60,000 BTUH) nominal cooling capacity.

LOCATION
Select the best position which suits the installation site
conditions. The location should provide adequate structural
support, space in the front of the unit for service access,
clearance for return air and supply duct connections, space
for refrigerant piping connections and condensate drain line
connections. If heaters are being installed make sure
adequate clearance is maintained from supply duct work.
See Clearances in Figure 1.

NOTE: Internal filter can be accessed from separate filter
door. If the filter can NOT be easily accessed, a remote filter
is recommended. Refer to ACCA Manual D for remote filter
sizing.

If the unit is located in an area of high humidity, nuisance
sweating of casing may occur. On these installations a wrap of
2" (51mm) fiberglass insulation with a vapor barrier is
recommended.

Failure to maintain proper clearances could result in personal injury, death, and/or property damage.

Duct work Acoustical Treatment
Metal duct systems that do not have a 90 degree elbow and
10 feet of main duct before first branch takeoff may require
internal acoustical insulation lining. As an alternative, fibrous
duct work may be used if constructed and installed in
accordance with the latest edition of SMACNA construction
standard on fibrous glass ducts. Both acoustical lining and
fibrous duct work shall comply with National Fire Protection
Association as tested by UL Standard 181 for Class 1 air
ducts.

CONNECTIONS

FEM4X (1-1/2 to 4 ton), FSM4X and FSU4X Fan Coil
models utilize an electronic fan board which has a low voltage
circuit protective fuse (5 amp), fan motor speed tap terminal
(SPT), and time-delay relay (TDR). To disable the TDR
feature, snip the jumper wire JWl (refer to Figure 9).

Make all electrical connections in accordance with the NEC
and any local codes or ordinances that may apply. Use
copper wire only. The unit must have a separate branch
electric circuit with a field-supplied disconnect switch located
within sight from and readily accessible from the unit.

FEM4X (5 ton) and FXM4X Fan Coil models have a low voltage
circuit protective fuse (3 amp) inline on the wire harness. Speed
selections are made at the fan motor by selecting taps 1,2, or 3
with the Blue wire. The motor is pre-programmed with the
time-delay circuit on some of the speed taps. (See Section D)

NOTE: When a pull-out type disconnect is removed from the
unit, only the Load side of the circuit is de-energized. The
Line side remains live until the main (remote) disconnect is
turned off.

Before proceeding with electrical connections, make certain
that supply voltage, frequency, phase, and circuit ampacity are
as specified on the unit rating plate. See unit wiring label for
proper field high and low voltage wiring.

ELECTRICAL

SHOCK or UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD

Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury, death, and/or unit damage.
If a disconnect switch is to be mounted on unit, select
a location where drill and fasteners will not contact
electrical or refrigeration components.

A. LINE VOLTAGE

CONNECTIONS

Fan Coils installed without electric heat require the use of a
factory-authorized
Power Plug Kit (accessory part number
EBAC01PLG). This kit provides the electrical connections
necessary to supply the unit with 208/230V power when
electric heat is not present. For units without electric heat:
1.

Connect 208/230V power leads from field disconnect
to yellow and black stripped leads on Power Plug
(accessory part number EBAC01PLG).

2.

Connect ground wire to unit ground lug.

3.

When installing an electric heater, remove and discard
power plug (if equipped) from fan coil and connect
male plug from heater to female plug from unit wiring
harness.
(See
Electric
Heater
Installation
Instructions.)

B. 24V CONTROL SYSTEM
Connection

to Unit

Wire low voltage in accordance with wiring label on the
blower (also refer to Figure 10 through Figure 14). Use 18
AWG color-coded, insulated (35°C minimum) wire to make
the low-voltage connections between the thermostat, the
unit, and the outdoor equipment. If the thermostat is located
more than 100 feet from the unit (as measured along the low
voltage wire), use 16 AWG color-coded, insulated (35°C
minimum) wire. All wiring must be NEC Class 1 and must be
separated from incoming power leads. Refer to outdoor unit
wiring instructions for additional wiring recommendations.
Heater Staging
The controls are factory circuited for single-stage operation
(refer to Figure 11 and Figure 12). When 2 stages are
desired, cut W3 at the W2 wire nut, strip, and reconnect
according to the thermostat kit instruction (refer to Figure 13
- outdoor thermostat optional). When 3 stages are desired,
cut the W2 wire nut off and discard. Strip W2, W3, and E, and
reconnect according to the thermostat kit instructions (refer
to Figure 14 outdoor thermostats optional).

UNIT OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in improper
product operation.
If W2, W3, and E on any 3 stage heater (18, 20, 24, or
30kW) are individually connected - as with outdoor
thermostats or any other situation - emergency heat
relay must be used. If relay is not used, blower may
not operate when heaters are energized.

C. GROUND CONNECTIONS

ELECTRICAL

SHOCK HAZARD

Failure to establish uninterrupted
or unbroken
ground could result in personal injury and/or death.
According to NEC, ANSI/NFPA 70, and local codes,
the cabinet must have an uninterrupted or unbroken
ground in order to minimize potential for personal injury or death if an electrical fault should occur. The
ground may consist of electrical wire or metal conduit
when installed in accordance with existing electrical
codes. If conduit connection uses reducing washers,
a separate ground wire must be used.

To change motor speeds disconnect the BLUE fan lead from
motor connector terminal #2 (factory default position) and
move to desired speed-tap; 1,2, 3, or 5.
Speed-taps 1, 2, and 3 have a 90 second blower off time
delay pre-programmed into the motor. Speed tap 4 is used
for electric heat only (with 0 second blower time delay) and
the WHITE wire should remain on tap 4. Speed-tap 5 is used
for high static applications, but has a 0 second blower time
delay pre-programmed
into the motor (see Airflow
Performance Tables for actual CFM for each tap). Also, see
Figure 16 for motor speed selection location.
NOTE: In low static applications, lower motor speed tap should
be used to reduce possibility of water being blown off coil.

NOTE: Use UL listed conduit and conduit connectors for
connecting supply wire(s) to unit to obtain proper grounding.
Grounding may also be accomplished by using grounding lugs
provided in control box.
D. MINIMUM CFM AND MOTOR SPEED SELECTION
Units with or without electric heaters require a minimum CFM.
Refer to the unit wiring label to ensure that the fan speed
selected is not lower than the minimum fan speed indicated.
FEM4X models (1-1/2 to 4 ton): fan speed selection is done at
the fan motor. To change motor speeds, reposition wire at fan
motor speed terminals labeled 1-2-3 (refer to Figure 16).
FSM4X and FSU4X models: fan speed selection is done at
the fan relay on the electronic fan board. To change motor
speeds, disconnect fan lead used on relay terminal (SPT) and
replace with motor speed lead desired (refer to Figure 17).
Save insulating cap and place on motor lead removed from
relay.
NOTE: In low static applications, lower motor speed tap should
be used to reduce possibility of water being blown off coil.
All units have 2 or 3 motor speed taps. Low speed (red or 1) is
designed for mismatch outdoor unit applications. Medium
speed (blue or 2) is designed for straight matched
operations. High speed (black or 3) is used with high external
static duct situations on straight matched systems.

TUBING

Size and install refrigerant lines according to information
provided with outdoor unit. Route refrigerant lines to the fan
coil in a manner that will not obstruct service access to the
unit or removal of the filter.
1.

Find the liquid tube grommet in the small-parts bag
and slide it onto the liquid refrigerant line (field
line-set).

2.

Remove the lower door. Remove the tubing plate (with
suction tube grommet) and slide the plate with
grommet onto the refrigerant lines (field line-set), away
from braze joints.

5.
6.
7.

Fit refrigerant lines into coil stubs. Wrap a heat sinking
material such as a wet cloth behind braze joints.
Braze using a SiI-Fos or Phos-copper alloy.
After brazing, allow joints to cool. Slide tubing plate
back into place and position grommets around suction
and liquid tubes to ensure air seal.

PRODUCT DAMAGE HAZARD

3.

Remove rubber plugs from coil stubs using a pulling
and twisting motion. Hold coil stubs steady to avoid
bending or distorting.

Failure to follow this caution may result in product
damage.

4.

Wrap TXV and nearby tubing with a heat-sinking
material such as a wet cloth.

Braze with SiI-Fos or Phos-copper alloy on copperto-copper joints and wrap a wet cloth around rear of
fitting to prevent damage to TXV.

REFRIGERANT

METERING

DEVICE

FEM4X, FSM4X, FSU4X, FXM4X
These Fan Coils have a factory installed hard shut-off TXV
designed only for use with R-410A refrigerant. Use only with
outdoor units designed for R-410A.
TXV is factory set and not field adjustable.

PRODUCT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in product
damage.
This Fan Coil has a hard shut-off TXV metering device. A compressor Hard Start Kit is REQUIRED in all
applications where the matching outdoor unit has a

CONDENSATE

DRAINS

Unit is provided with primary and secondary 3/4" (19mm)
NPT drain connections. Refer to Figures 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 to
identify the primary and secondary locations. To prevent
property
damage
and
achieve
optimum
drainage
performance, BOTH primary and secondary drain lines
should be installed and include properly sized condensate
traps (refer to Figure 18). Factory approved condensate
traps are available (accessory part number EBAC01CTK).

Figure 18

1

Recommended

Condensate Trap

2 MIN (51mm)

To connect drainlines, the drain connection knock-outs must
be removed. Use a knife to start the opening near the tab and
using pliers, pull the tab to remove the knock-out. Clean the
edge of the opening if necessary. After drain fittings are
installed, caulk the seam between the fitting and the cover to
retain the low leak rating of the unit.

m)

It is recommended the PVC fittings be used on the plastic
condensate pan. Do not over-tighten. Finger-tighten plus
1-1/2 turns. Use pipe dope, to ensure proper seal.
Install traps in the condensate lines as close to the coil as
possible (refer to Figure 20), but avoid blocking filter access
panel.

Figure 19

1

Insufficient Condensate Trap

Install drain lines below the bottom of the drain pan and pitch
the drain lines down from the coil at least ¼ inch per foot of
run (6mm per 0.3m). Horizontal runs over 15 feet (5m) long
must also have an anti-siphon air vents (stand pipes),
installed ahead of the horizontal runs. Extremely long
horizontal runs may require oversized drain lines to eliminate
air trapping.
Route primary drain line to the outside or to a floor drain.
Check local codes before connecting to a waste (sewer) line.
Route the secondary drain line to a place in compliance with
local installation codes where it will be noticed when unit is
operational. Condensate flowing from secondary (overflow)
drain indicates a plugged primary drain - unit requires
service or water damage will occur.
Prime all traps, test for leaks, and insulate drain lines where
sweating could cause water damage. Consult local codes for
additional requirements or precautions.

DO NOT USE SHALLOW RUNNING TRAPS!

which completes circuit to heater element(s). Blower motor
is energized through normally closed contacts on fan relay.
When W is de-energized, electric heat relay(s) opens.

PROCEDURE

Refer to outdoor unit Installation Instructions for system
start-up
instructions and refrigerant charging method
details.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The system should be regularly inspected by a qualified
service technician.
Consult the servicing dealer for
recommended frequency.
Between visits, the only consumer service recommended or
required is air filter maintenance and condensate drain
operation.
Air Filter
Inspect air filters at least monthly and replace or clean as
required. Disposable type filters should be replaced.
Reusable type filters may be cleaned by soaking in mild
detergent and rinsing with cold water. Install filters with the
arrows on the side pointing in the direction of air flow.
Condensate

PRODUCT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in poor unit
performance and/or product damage.
Never operate unit without a filter. Factory authorized
filter kits must be used when locating the filter inside
the unit. For those applications where access to an
internal filter is impractical, a field-supplied
filter
must be installed in the return duct system.

Drain

During the cooling season check at least monthly for free flow
of drainage and clean if necessary.

NOTES:
1. Airflow based upon dry coil at 230v with factory approved filter and electric heater (2 element heater sizes 1800 through 3600, 3 element heater sizes 4200 through
6000).
2. Airflow at 208 volts is approximately the same as 230 volts because the ECM motor is a constant torque motor. The torque doesn't drop off at the speeds the
motor operates.
3. To avoid potential for condensate blowing out of drain pan prior to making drain trap: Return static pressure must be less than 0.40 in. wc. Horizontal
applications of 4200 - 6000 sizes must have supply static greater than 0.20 in. wc.
4. Airflow above 400 cfm/ton on 4800 - 6000 size could result in condensate blowing off coil or splashing out of drain pan.
5. Not recommended for use above 0.60 inches water column external static pressure.
6. Shading - Airflow outside 450 cfm/ton.

QUICK REFERENCE

GUIDE

• R-410A refrigerant operates at 50% - 70% higher pressures than R-22.
replacement components are designed to operate with R-410A.

Be sure that servicing equipment and

• R-410A refrigerant cylinders are rose colored.
• Recovery cylinder service pressure rating must be 400 psig, DOT 4BA400 or DOT BW400.
• R-410A systems should be charged with liquid refrigerant. Use a commercial type metering device in the
manifold hose.
° Manifold sets should be 750 psig high-side and 200 psig low-side with 520 psig low-side retard.
° Use hoses with 750 psig service pressure rating.
° Leak detectors should be designed to detect HFC refrigerant.
° R-410A, as with other HFC refrigerants, is only compatible with POE oils.
° POE oils absorb moisture rapidly. Do not expose oil to atmosphere.
° POE oils may cause damage to certain plastics and roofing materials.
° Vacuum pumps will not remove moisture from oil.
° A liquid line filter-drier

is required on every unit.

° Do not use liquid line filter-driers

with rated working pressures less than 600 psig.

° Do not install a suction line filter-drier
° Wrap all filter-driers

in liquid line.

and service valves with wet cloth when brazing.

° Do not use with an R-22 TXV.
° If indoor unit is equipped with an R-22 TXV, it must be changed to an R-410A TXV.
° Do not use capillary tube indoor coils.
° Never open system to atmosphere while it is under a vacuum.
° When system must be opened for service, break vacuum with dry nitrogen and replace all filter-driers.
° Do not vent R-410A into the atmosphere.
° Observe all WARNINGS,
