Direct Expansion (DX) Condensing Units
CB Series condensing units are factory
assembled and wired, including a full charge
of R-410A refrigerant for up to 25 feet of
line set. Systems with the modulating hot
gas reheat option will require refrigerant to
be field added because of the additional
refrigerant

components

and

piping

associated with the system.

Refrigeration

system

includes

factory

provided liquid line filter drier and fully
hermetic scroll compressor with a positive
pressure forced lubrication system.














Never cut off the main power supply to the
unit, except for servicing, emergency, or
complete shutdown of the unit. When power
is cut off from the unit, compressors using
crankcase heaters cannot prevent refrigerant
migration. This means the compressor may
cool down and liquid refrigerant may
accumulate in the compressor. Since the
compressor is designed to pump refrigerant
gas, damage may occur when power is
restored.

If power to the unit must be off for more
than an hour, turn the thermostat system
switch to “Off”, or turn the unit off at the
control panel, and then cut off the main
power supply. Leave the unit off until the
main power supply has been turned on again

for at least 24 hours. This will give the
crankcase heater time to clear any liquid
accumulation out of the compressor before it
is required to run.
Always control the system from the
thermostat, or control panel, never at the
main power supply, except for servicing,
emergency, or complete shutdown of the
unit.

Note:
Low Ambient Operation
Units without a low ambient option, such as
condenser fan cycling or the 0°F low
ambient option, will not operate in the
cooling mode of operation properly when
the outdoor temperature is below 55°F. Low
ambient and/or air handling unit economizer
options are recommended if cooling
operation below 55°F is expected.

Note: Multiple Systems with Multiple
Thermostats
When several heating and cooling split
systems are used to condition a space all
thermostat switches must be set in either
heating mode, cooling mode or off. Do not
leave part of the systems switched to the
opposite mode. Cooling only systems should
be switched off at the thermostat during the
heating season.

Wiring Diagrams
Unit specific wiring diagram is laminated in
plastic and located inside the controls
compartment door.


CRANKCASE HEATER

OPERATION

Units are equipped with compressor
crankcase heaters, which should be
energized at least 24 hours prior to
cooling operation, to clear any liquid
refrigerant from the compressors.
