Install low voltage wiring from outdoor to indoor unit and from

thermostat to indoor unit as illustrated.

HIGH VOLTAGE / GROUND WIRES

Any excess high voltage field wiring should be trimmed and

secured away from any low voltage field wiring. To facilitate a

conduit, a cutout is located in the bottom of the control panel.

Connect conduit to the control panel using a proper conduit

fitting.

CONTROL WIRING

NOTE — Wire tie provides low voltage control wire strain relief and to maintain

separation of field installed low and high voltage circuits.
NOTE — For proper voltages, select thermostat wire (control wires) gauge per

table above

.

NOTE — Do not bundle any excess 24VAC control wires inside control panel.

A

Run 24VAC control wires through hole with grommet and secure

with provided wire tie.

B

Make 24VAC thermostat wire connections. Locate the two wires

from the contactor and make connection using field provided wire

NOTE

 – 

The thermostat used may be electromechanical

or electronic

.

NOTE

 – 

Transformer in indoor unit supplies power (24

VAC) to the thermostat and outdoor unit controls.

COOLING

:

1. Cooling demand initiates at Y1 in the thermostat.
2.  24VAC from indoor unit (Y1) energizes the TOC timed 

off control (if used) which energizes contactor K1 (pro

-

vided S4 high pressure switch is closed).

3.  K1-1 N.O. closes, energizing compressor (B1) and out-

door fan motor (B4).

4.  Compressor (B1) and outdoor fan motor (B4) begin im-

mediate operation..

END OF COOLING DEMAND:

5.  Cooling  demand  is  satisfied.  Terminal  Y1  is  de-ener

-

gized .

6. Compressor contactor K1 is de-energized.
7.  K1-1 opens and compressor (B1) and outdoor fan mo-

tor (B4) are de-energized and stop immediately

Servicing Units Delivered Void of Charge  

If the outdoor unit is void of refrigerant, clean the system 

using the procedure described below.

1 -   Leak test the system using the procedure outlined 

on page 18.

2 -   Evacuate the system using procedure outlined on 

page 19.

3 -   Use nitrogen to break the vacuum and install a new 

filter drier in the system.

4 -   

Evacuate the system again using procedure 

outlined on page 19.

5 -   Weigh in refrigerant using procedure outlined in 

figure
