Connect Control Wiring

Route 24v control wires through control wiring grommet and
connect leads to control wiring. See Thermostat Installation

Instructions for wiring specific unit combinations. (See Fig. 10.)
Use No. 18 AWG color--coded, insulated (35°C minimum) wire. If
thermostat is located more than 100 ft (30.5 m) from unit, as

measured along the control voltage wires, use No. 16 AWG
color--coded wire to avoid excessive voltage drop.
All wiring must be NEC Class 1 and must be separated from

incoming power leads.
Use furnace transformer, fan coil transformer, or accessory

transformer for control power, 24v/40va minimum.
NOTE:

Use of available 24v accessories may exceed the

minimum 40va power requirement. Determine total transformer
loading and increase the transformer capacity or split the load with
an accessory transformer as required.

Final Wiring Check

IMPORTANT: Check factory wiring and field wire connections
to ensure terminations are secured properly. Check wire routing to
ensure wires are not in contact with tubing, sheet metal, etc.

Compressor Crankcase Heater

When equipped with a crankcase heater, furnish power to heater a
minimum of 24 hr before starting unit. To furnish power to heater

only, set thermostat to OFF and close electrical disconnect to

outdoor unit.
A crankcase heater is required if refrigerant tubing is longer than

80 ft (23.4 m), or when outdoor unit is 20 ft (6.09 m) below indoor
unit. Refer to the Residential Piping and Long Line Guideline.

Install Electrical Accessories

Refer to the individual instructions packaged with kits or

accessories when installing.

S

Do not overcharge system with refrigerant.

S

Do not operate unit in a vacuum or at negative pressure.

S

Do not disable low pressure switch in scroll compressor

applications.

S

Compressor dome temperatures may be hot.

Follow these steps to properly start up system:

1. After system is evacuated, fully open liquid and vapor ser-

vice valves.

2. Unit is shipped with valve stem(s) front seated (closed) and

caps installed. Replace stem caps after system is opened to
refrigerant flow (back seated). Replace caps finger--tight and
tighten with wrench an additional 1/12 turn.

3. Close electrical disconnects to energize system.
4. Set room thermostat at desired temperature. Be sure set

point is below indoor ambient temperature.

5. Set room thermostat to HEAT or COOL and fan control to

ON or AUTO mode, as desired. Operate unit for 15

minutes. Check system refrigerant charge.
