For appfications longer than fifty feet, consult the Lennox Refrigerant Piping Guide (Corp. 9351-L9). Select line set diameters from table 2 to ensure that oil returns to the compressor. Installing @ power ® heat Q cooling Q indoor blower Q Line During the installation of any heat pump or a/c system, it is important to properly isolate the refrigerant lines to prevent unnecessary vibration. Line set contact with the structure (wall, ceiling or floor) causes some objectionable noise when vibration is translated into sound, As a result, more energy or vibration can be expected, Closer attention to line set isolation must be observed. Outdoor Unit Y1 Outdoor Unit Following are some points to consider when placing and installing a high-efficiency outdoor unit: /_C common 1, Placement - Be aware some localities are adopting sound ordinances based on how noisy the unit is from the adjacent property not at the original installation. Install the unit as far as possible from the property line. When possible, do not install the unit directly outside a window, Glass has a very high level of sound transmission. Figure 4 shows how to place the outdoor unit and line set, Unit Outdoor NOTE - see unit wiring diagram for power supply connections. NOTE - If the indoor unit is not equipped with blower relay. It must be field-provided and installed (P-8-3251 or equivalent). Figure 3 Field refrigerant piping consists of liquid and vapor lines from the outdoor unit (sweat connections) to the indoor coil (flare or sweat connections). Use Lennox L15 (sweat, nonflare) series line sets as shown in table 2 or use field-fabricated refrigerant lines, Refer to Refrigerant Piping Guide (Corp, 9351-L9) for proper size, type, and application of field-fabricated lines.

Unit VALVE _ Side SERVICE PORT Field Side STEM Using an Electronic Leak Detector or Halide 1. Connect a cylinder of HCFC-22 to the center port of the manifold gauge set. 2. With both manifold valves closed, open the valve on the HCFC-22 cylinder (vapor only). 3. Open the high pressure side of the manifold to allow the HCFC-22 into the line set and indoor unit. Weigh in a trace amount of HCFC-22. [A trace amount is a maximum of 2 ounces (57 g) or 3 pounds (31 kPa) pressure,] Close the valve on the HCFC-22 cylinder and the valve on the high pressure side of the manifold gauge set, Disconnect the HCFC-22 cylinder. 4. Connect a cylinder of nitrogen with a pressure regulating valve to the center port of the manifold gauge set, STEM CAP BALL (Shown open) Figure 10 After the line set has been connected to the indoor and outdoor units, check the line set connections and indoor unit for leaks. ,WARNING WARNING WARNING 5. Connect the manifold gauge set high pressure hose to the vapor valve service port. I NOTE - Normally, the high pressure hose is connected to the liquid line port; however, connecting it to the vapor port better protects the manifold gauge set from high pressure damage, 6. Adjust the nitrogen pressure to 150 psig (1034 kPa). Open the valve on the high side of the manifold gauge set which will pressurize line set and indoor unit. 7. After a few minutes, open a refrigerant port to ensure the refrigerant you added is adequate to be detected. (Amounts of refrigerant will vary with line lengths.) Check all joints for leaks. Purge nitrogen and HCFC-22 mixture. Correct any leaks and recheck. I I Evacuating the system of noncondensables is critical for proper operation of the unit. Noncondensables are defined as any gas that will not condense under temperatures and pressures present during operation of an air conditioning system, Noncondensables and water vapor combine with refrigerant to produce substances that corrode copper piping and compressor parts and can lead to improper charge levels. A IMPORTANT Page 8 504963M 03/06 1. Closemanifoldgaugesetvalves.Connectmanifold gaugesetto theservicevalveportsasfollows: • lowpressure gaugeto vapor line service valve rise above 500 microns (29.9 inches of mercury) within a 20-minute period after shutting off the vacuum pump and closing the manifold gauge valves. • high pressure gauge to liquid line service valve 2. Connect micron gauge, . 3. Connect the vacuum pump (with vacuum gauge) to the center port of the manifold gauge set, 4. Open both manifold valves and start the vacuum pump. 5. Evacuate the line set and indoor unit to an absolute pressure of 23,000 microns (29.01 inches of mercury). During the early stages of evacuation, it is desirable to close the manifold gauge valve at least once to determine if there is a rapid rise in absolute pressure, A rapid rise in pressure indicates a relatively large leak, If this occurs, repeat the leak testing procedure, When the absolute pressure requirement above has been met, disconnect the manifold hose from the vacuum pump and connect it to an upright cylinder of HCFC-22 refrigerant. Open the manifold gauge valves to break the vacuum from 1 to 2 psig positive pressure in the line set and indoor unit. Close manifold gauge valves and shut off the HCFC-22 cylinder and remove the manifold gauge set, IMPORTANT NOTE - The term absolute pressure means the total actual pressure within a given volume or system, above the absolute zero of pressure, Absolute pressure in a vacuum is equal to atmospheric pressure minus vacuum pressure, 6. When the absolute pressure reaches 23,000 microns (29.01 inches of mercury), close the manifold gauge valves, turn off the vacuum pump and disconnect the manifold gauge center port hose from vacuum pump. Attach the manifold center port hose to a nitrogen cylinder with pressure regulator set to 150 psig (1034 kPa) and purge the hose. Open the manifold gauge valves to break the vacuum in the line set and indoor unit, Close the manifold gauge valves. 1. Rotate the fan to check for frozen bearings or binding. 2. Inspect all factory- and field-installed wiring for loose connections. 3. After evacuation is complete, open the liquid line and vapor line service valves to release the refrigerant charge (contained in outdoor unit) into the system. 4. Replace the stem caps and secure finger tight, then tighten an additional one-sixth (1/6) of a turn, 5. Check voltage supply at the disconnect switch. The voltage must be within the range listed on the unit's nameplate. If not, do not start the equipment until you have consulted the power company and the voltage condition has been corrected. CAUTION 6. Set the thermostat for a cooling demand. Turn on power to the indoor blower and close the outdoor unit disconnect switch to start the unit, 7. Recheck voltage while the unit is running. Power must be within range shown on the nameplate. 7. Shut off the nitrogen cylinder and remove the manifold gauge hose from the cylinder. Open the manifold gauge valves to release the nitrogen from the line set and indoor unit. 8. Reconnect the manifold gauge to the vacuum pump, turn the pump on, and continue to evacuate the line set and indoor unit until the absolute pressure does not Refrigerant Charge Liquid Line Set Diameter 5/16 in.

This will create the necessary load for properly charging the system in the cooling cycle, 4, Use a digital thermometer to record the outdoor ambient temperature. 5. When the heating demand has been satisfied, switch the thermostat to cooling mode with a set point of 68 <_ F (20 <_ C), When pressures have stabilized, use a digital thermometer to record the liquid line temperature, 6. The outdoor temperature will determine which charging method to use, Proceed with the appropriate charging procedure, Weighing in the Charge - Fixed Orifice or TXV Systems - Outdoor Temp < 65°F (18°C) If the system is void of refrigerant, or if the outdoor ambient temperature is cool, the refrigerant charge should be weighed into the unit, Do this after any leaks have been repaired. 1, Recover the refrigerant from the unit, 2, Conduct a leak check, then evacuate as previously outlined. 3, Weigh in the unit nameplate charge, If weighing facilities are not available or if you are charging the unit during warm weather, follow one of the other procedures outlined below, 3. Use a temperature/pressure chart for HCFC-22 to determine the saturation temperature for the liquid line pressure reading. 4. Subtract the liquid line temperature from the saturation temperature (according to the chart) to determine subcooling. (Saturation temperature - Liquid line temperature = Subcooling) 5. Compare the subcooling value with those in table 5. If subcooling is greater than shown, recover some refrigerant. If subcooling is less than shown, add some refrigerant. NOTE - See HS29 3-phase unit charging sticker on unit for 3-phase charging information. Charging Using the Approach Method TXV Systems - Outdoor Temp. _>65°F (18 ° C) The following procedure is intended as a general guide and is for use on expansion valve systems only. For best results, indoor temperature should be 70°F (21°C) to 80°F (26°C), Monitor system pressures while charging. 1, Attach high pressure gauge set and operate unit for several minutes to allow system pressures to stabilize. 2, Compare stabilized pressures with those provided in table 6, "Normal Operating Pressures." Pressures higher than those listed indicate that the system is overcharged. Pressures lower than those listed indicate that the system is undercharged, Verify adjusted charge using the approach method, Charging Using the Subcooling Method - Fixed Orifice Systems - Outdoor Temp. _>65°F (18°C) If you charge a fixed orifice system when the outdoor ambient is 65 _F (18 <_ C) or above, use the subcooling method to charge the unit. A IMPORTANT 1, With the manifold gauge hose still on the liquid service port and the unit operating stably, use a digital thermometer to record the liquid line temperature, 2, At the same time, record the liquid line pressure reading, Page 11 HS29 SERIES Table 6 Normal Mode Fixed Orifice TXV *These NOTE Operating Pressures In psig (liquid +/- 10 and vapor+/- Out.

Use the same digital thermometer you used to check the outdoor ambient temperature to check the liquid line temperature. 6. The difference between the ambient and liquid temperatures should match values given in table 7. If the values don't agree with the those in table 7, add refrigerant to lower the approach temperature, or recover refrigerant from the system to increase the approach temperature.

High and Low Pressure Switches (international units and units with factory-installed options) International units and units with factory-equipped options include high and low pressure switches. The pressure switches are located on valve cores in the liquid line to allow for easy access. The manually reset high pressure switch protects the system from high pressure conditions as a result of a fan failure or a blocked or dirty coil. The low pressure switch (SPST, NO) protects the system compressor from damage due to a loss of charge. The low pressure switch trips at 15 + 5 psig (103 + 34 kPa) and automatically resets at 25 + 3 psig (172 + 21 kPa). Maintenance and service must be performed by a qualified installer or service agency. NOTE - Use HS29-060 values for-062 and -065 units.
