IMPORTANT
Use a thermocouple or thermistor electronic vacuum
gauge that is calibrated in microns. Use an instrument
capable of accurately measuring down to 50 microns.
WARNING
Danger of Equipment Damage. Avoid deep vacuum
operation. Do not use compressors to evacuate a
system. Extremely low vacuums can cause internal
arcing and compressor failure. Damage caused by
deep vacuum operation will void warranty.
Evacuating the system of non-condensables is critical for
proper operation of the unit. Non-condensables are
defined as any gas that will not condense under
temperatures and pressures present during operation of
an air conditioning system. Non-condensables and water
suction combine with refrigerant to produce substances
that corrode copper piping and compressor parts.
Electrical
In the U.S.A., wiring must conform with current local codes
and the current National Electric Code (NEC). In Canada,
wiring must conform with current local codes and the current
Canadian Electrical Code (CEC).
Refer to the furnace or air handler installation instructions
for additional wiring application diagrams and refer to unit
nameplate for minimum circuit ampacity and maximum
overcurrent protection size.
24VAC TRANSFORMER
Use the transformer provided with the furnace or air
handler for low‐voltage control power (24VAC - 40 VA
minimum)
Refer to the unit nameplate for minimum circuit ampacity, and
maximum fuse or circuit breaker (HACR per NEC). Install power
wiring and properly sized disconnect switch.
NOTE - Units are approved for use only with copper conductors.
Ground unit at disconnect switch or to an earth ground.
