foam at the cut. The edges and corners that

are not covered should then be sealed using

silicone caulking or a duct seal compound.

If a reciprocating saw is used to make the

cut-out take care that the metal skins of the

foam part do not separate from the foam,

this would result in reduced structural

integrity of the part.

Size supply conductors based on the unit

Minimum Current Ampacity (MCA) rating.

Supply conductors must be rated a minimum

of 75°C.

Protect the branch circuit in accordance with

code requirements. The unit must be

electrically grounded in accordance with

local codes, or in the absence of local codes,

the current National Electric Code,

ANSI/NFPA 70 or the current Canadian

Electrical Code CSA C22.1.

Note: Units are factory wired for 208V,

230V, 460V, or 575V. In some units, the

208V and 230V options may also be

provided in single or three phase

configurations.

The transformer

configuration must be checked by a

qualified technician prior to startup.

Wire power leads to the unit’s terminal

block or main disconnect. All wiring beyond

this point has been completed by AAON and

cannot be modified without effecting the

unit’s agency/safety certification.

Supply voltage must be within the min/max

range shown on the unit nameplate.

Available short circuit current should not

exceed the short circuit current rating

(SCCR) shown on the unit nameplate.

Three phase voltage imbalance will cause

motor overheating and premature failure.

The maximum allowable imbalance is 2.0%.

Voltage imbalance is defined as 100 times

the maximum deviation from the average

voltage divided by the average voltage.

Example:

(221V+230V+227V)/3 = 226V, then

100*(226V-221V)/226V = 2.2%, which

exceeds the allowable imbalance.

Check voltage imbalance at the unit

disconnect switch and at the compressor

terminal. Contact your local power company

for line voltage corrections.

Installing contractor must check for proper

motor rotation and check blower motor

amperage listed on the motor nameplate is

not exceeded.

Three phase voltage imbalance will

cause motor overheating and

premature failure.

CAUTION

Rotation must be checked on all

MOTORS AND COMPRESSORS of

three phase units. Supply fan motors

should all be checked by a qualified

service technician at startup and any

wiring alteration should only be made

at the unit power connection.
