NOTE
:
The Teflon seal on the piston should point towards the
liquid service valve. The size of the factory supplied piston might
have to be adjusted for long line applications (over 80 ft /24.4 m).
Refer to the Residential Long Line Application Guide for
additional information.
3. Attach the flare end of the filter drier assembly to the piston
cap (see Fig. 28).
4. Connect the field supplied line set to the filter drier assem-
bly and to the suction valve.
5. Insulate any exposed areas between filter drier and liquid
valve.

WARNING
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or
death.
The unit cabinet must have an uninterrupted or unbroken ground
to minimize personal injury if an electrical fault should occur. The
ground may consist of electrical wire or metal conduit when
installed in accordance with existing electrical codes.
CAUTION
!
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage
or improper operation.
Unit failure as a result of operation on improper line voltage or
excessive phase imbalance constitutes abuse and may cause
damage to electrical components. Such operation could void
any applicable manufacturer warranty.

WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury
or death.
Before performing service or maintenance, be sure indoor
unit main power switch is turned OFF and indoor blower has
stopped.
Lock out and tag switch with a suitable warning label.
Power Wiring
NOTE
: The indoor and outdoor units are powered separately.
1. Mount indoor and outdoor power disconnect. The units are
factory wired for the voltage shown on the unit nameplates.
The fused disconnect switch must be provided within sight of
the unit, readily accessible, but out of reach of children. Provi-
sions for locking the disconnect switch on the OFF (open) po-
sition is advisable. The disconnect switch must comply with
NEC and local codes. Protect the unit and wiring using only
the recommended fuse/circuit breaker size (see Tables 17 thru
20).
2. Run power wiring from electric panel to disconnect per
NEC and local codes.
3. Run power wiring from the disconnect switch to indoor and
outdoor units. Use only minimum 75
_
C copper conductors
between the disconnect switch and the unit for field power
connection.
4. Route the field power wires through the conduit connection
opening in the unit side panel and connect in junction box
as shown in Fig 30 for outdoor units and the strain relief
bracket section for indoor units. The units and power wiring
must be grounded.

NOTE
:
Operating unit on improper line voltage constitutes
abuse and may affect the manufacturer’s warranty. DO NOT
install unit in a system where voltage may fluctuate above or
below permissible limits.
Control Wiring
Thermostat wires should be used for control wiring between the
indoor and outdoor units. A two conductor cable is required for the
cooling only units and a four conductor cable is required for heat
pumps. 18 AWG is recommended for lengths up to 50 ft. (15 m.),
and 16 AWG is recommended between lengths of 50 ft. (15 m.) to
100 ft. (30 m.).
The control circuit is 24 volts AC (minimum 40VA) supplied from
the indoor unit.
1. Make sure you have enough control wires to cover the dis-
tance between the indoor and outdoor unit.
2. Route one end of the control wiring through the opening
provided in the unit side panel and connect to the control
terminal strip using either Fig. 31 for AC units or Fig. 32
for Heat Pump Units.
