Connecting Ductwork

Slip each inlet duct over the inlet collar of the terminal. Fasten 

and seal the connection by the method prescribed by the job 

specification. The diameter of the inlet duct “D” in inches must 

be equal to the listed inlet size of the terminal; e.g. a duct that 

actually measures 8 inches must be fitted to a terminal with 

a size 8 inlet. The inlet collar of the terminal is made 1/8 inch 

smaller than listed size in order to fit inside the duct.  

NOTE:  Do not insert ductwork inside the inlet collar 

of the assembly .

 Inlet duct should be installed in 

accordance with SMACNA guidelines. If a single 

point electronic velocity sensor is installed, it is 

recommended that the installer provide three to five 

diameters of straight duct at the terminal inlet. 

The outlet end of the fan powered terminal is designed for 

use with flanged ductwork (slip and drive duct connections 

optional). A rectangular duct the size listed in the catalog for 

the fan powered case size should be attached. Ductwork 

should be fastened and sealed per the job specifications. 

Minimum Clearance for Access

Fan Powered Air Terminals require sufficient clearance to 

allow servicing of the motor, blower, actuator, controls and 

single point electric power hook-up. A minimum of 3 inches 

of vertical clearance is required below the bottom of the 

unit and sufficient horizontal clearance to the side to allow 

the bottom access panels to clear the bottom of the fan 

powered air terminal unit. Horizontal clearance requirements 

are dependent upon access panel dimensions which are 

indicated on the appropriate submittals. For control panel 

enclosure access a minimum of 18” is recommended. 

Do 

not block access to control panel enclosure .

 See the 

appropriate submittal for control panel location.

NOTE: 

These clearance recommendations are not meant to 

preclude NEC requirements or local building codes 

that may be applicable, which are the responsibility of 

the installing contractor.  

Field Electrical Wiring

 WARNING

Electric shock hazard . Can cause personal injury or 

equipment damage . 

This equipment must be properly grounded. Connections and 

service to the MicroTech

®

 III Chiller Unit Controller must be 

performed only by personnel knowledgeable in the operation 

of the equipment being controlled.

All field wiring must comply with the local codes and with

the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70-2002).

When applicable, electrical, control and piping diagrams

are shown on labels attached to the exterior of the fan

powered terminal, or to the inside cover of the control

• Use copper conductors only!

• All fan powered air terminal units are factory wired for

a single point electrical connection to the fan and the

optional electric heater.

• All electric heaters if provided by Daikin are balanced

by kW per stage. The installing electrician should rotate

these heater stages by phase in order to help balance the

building electric load.

• All fan powered air terminal units must be properly

grounded per NEC 424-14 and 250.

• Always check product label for voltage and current data

to determine the proper wire size and current protection.

• The control cabinet contains live electrical parts!

Contacting these parts with the power applied may cause

serious injury or death. The control cover must be closed

prior to applying electric power to the unit.

• Disconnect switches are optional equipment. Caution:

Provide a safety disconnect per NEC 424-19, 20 & 21.

Unless ordered with electric heaters, motor fusing is

optional. Caution: If multiple fan powered units are

connected to one branch circuit breaker, factory motor

fusing is required.

• These recommendations are not meant to preclude

NEC requirements or local building codes that may be

applicable, which are the responsibility of the installing

contractor.

Fan Powered Air Terminal Units with 

Electric Heat

• Always inspect the electric coils for damage prior to

installing the single duct unit.

• See above wiring instructions.

Fan Powered Air Terminal Units with Hot 

Water Coils

• Always inspect the hot water coils for damage prior to

installing the single duct unit.

CAUTION: The copper tubing should not be used as

lift points . 

The hot water coil casing is field insulated.

• The hot water coils do not have a drip pan and are not

suitable for use as cooling coils.
