RETAIN THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR FUTURE USE

The Lennox CH23 series horizontal coils are designed for
installation with a horizontal furnace and a matched remote
outdoor unit. These units are for indoor installation only.
Refer to the Lennox engineering handbook for match-up
information.

WARNING
These instructions are intended as a general guide and do
not supersede local or national codes in any way. Authorities having jurisdiction should be consulted before installation.
Check contents for shipping damage. If any damage is
found, contact the last carrier immediately.

Package 1 of 1 contains the following:
1- Coil cabinet assembly
1- Bag assembly containing the following:
1-Suction line elbow with equalizer port
1-90 <_liquid line stub
1-O-ring
1-Heat shield

Remove the two shipping
screws from the coil flange. The
coil can't be removed from the
case if the screws are present

1-3/8 inch x 5/16 inch reducer coupling (-21, -31 only)
1-7/8 inch x 5/8 inch reducer bushing (-21, -31 only)

FIGURE 1

1-7/8 inch x 3/4 inch reducer bushing (-41 only)
Check equipment for shipping damage. If you find any
damage, immediately contact the last carrier.

1- CH23 cabinet must be installed for horizontal air flow.
NOTE - Coils are designed for air flow from either direction.

NOTE - To remove the coil from its casing after installation,
remove the two shipping screws from the coil flange. See

2- Use field-fabricated transitions or adaptors (recommended 18 inches min. width) to connect CH23 and
blower unit.

NOTE - CH23 evaporators use nitrogen or dry air as a
holding charge. If there is no pressure when you remove
the rubber plugs (step 2), check the coil or line set for leaks
before installing. After installation, pull a vacuum on the
line set and coil before releasing the outdoor unit charge
into the system.
RFC Applications
1- Remove plastic cap from distributor's orifice body.
2-

Install one of the o-rings supplied to the distributor orifice body. See figure 2.

3- Install the refrigerant metering device (bullet) shipped
with the condensing unit into the distributor orifice
body and the liquid line seal nut section.

5- With heat shield in place, sweat in suction line. Suction
line elbow service port has no core. Secure cap to port
to prevent leakage. After procedure is completed, remove heat shield.
6-

2 - Remove and discard the rubber grommet and metal
slug from the inside of the seal nut.
3 - Slide the liquid line stub (provided in the bag assembly) through the seal nut.
4 - Braze the liquid line to the liquid line stub/seal nut assembly.
5 - Apply a small amount of refrigerant oil to the O-ring
(provided in the bag assembly) and install it on the liquid line orifice housing. Insert the stubbed end of the
expansion valve into the liquid line orifice housing and
tighten the expansion valve seal nut. See figure 3.
6 - Apply a small amount of refrigerant on the provided
Teflon washer provided with the expansion valve kit.
Install the washer on the threaded side of the expansion valve. Tighten the liquid line seal nut on the
threads of the expansion valve. See figure 3.
7 - Place the provided heat shield over the piping plate
and around the suction line connection.
8 - With the heat shield in place, sweat in suction-line elbow (provided) and the suction line.
9 - Attach the expansion valve sensing bulb on a a horizontal section of the suction line in the 2, 4, 8, or 10
o'clock position. The position of the sensing bulb is
critical to ensure that the systems performs properly. Refer to figure 4.
NOTE - Do not position the sensing bulb at the bottom
of the suction line. The refrigerant/oil mixture will not
allow a true temperature reading to be transferred to
the sensing bulb.

10 - Refer to the instructions that are provided with the condensing unit for leak testing, evacuating, and charging
procedures.

Refer to instructions provided with condensing unit for
leak testing, evacuating and charging procedures.

TXV Applications
1 - Loosen the liquid line seal nut at the point that the liquid line exits the coil.

RFCIV INSTALLATION
__

Place heat shield against the piping plate and around the
suction line connection. Heat shield must be in place to
guard against damage to the paint.

2- Install trap in condensate line, Trap must be deep
enough to offset difference in static pressure between
drain pan and atmosphere. Generally 2 inches (51
mm) is satisfactory for medium static applications. Refer to figure 6,

CH23 coil has both main and auxiliary drains, Auxiliary
drain removes condensation should main drain become
plugged, Refer to figure 5 for auxiliary and main drain locations,
NOTE - It is recommended a trap be provided in the main
drain line, If a vent tee is required in the line, the trap should
be between the unit outlet and the vent tee,

3- Horizontal runs must be pitched down 1 inch per 10
feet (25 mm per 3 m) of drain line for proper condensate flow.
4- An open vent in the drain line may be required due to
line length friction and static pressure.

Observe draft gauge readings with blower access panel in place and blower operating, If reading is low, close
adjustable pulley or wire direct drive blower to higher
speed. If reading is high, open adjustable pulley or wire
to a lower blower speed, Close blower access panel
each time to eliminate false readings.
