shown returns the fan control voltage 

down to the minimum value for 'High' 

fan speed (3.0V).

v. When the desired setting for high 

fan speed is selected then wait for 

30 seconds. The controller will save 

the selected value in its memory and 

return to normal operation.

vi. To adjust the indoor fan 'Low' speed 

repeat the above procedure but wait 

until the display shows the letter 'L' 

before releasing the push button. The 

factory default value for low speed is 

5.5V.

If the air returning to the indoor unit is 

regularly expected to be above 50%RH, 

then the coil face velocity should be limited 

to be 2.5 m/s or less (refer Air Handling 

graph in Technical Data pamphlet). 
High humidity levels can occur in tropical or 

subtropical conditions, and/or when heavily 

moisture laden fresh air is introduced. Select 

a fan speed that avoids water carry-over 

problems. 

CHECK TESTS

1.  Leave the remote switch in the off 

position and close the mains isolating 

switch. 

 

A four hour delay period is required to 

allow the crankcase heater to drive any 

liquid refrigerant out of the compressor 

oil.

2.  Check that all fan motors are free 

running.

3.  Check that the thermostat is correctly 

wired to the unit and is set at the desired 

temperature.

4.  Check that the air filters, if any, have 

been correctly installed.

5.  Check any supply air diffuser dampers 

are open.

START UP PROCEDURE

Use the supplied Commissioning Sheet to 

help you complete the following procedure:
1.  Switch on the unit after the four hour 

delay period for the crankcase heater 

has expired.

2.  Check for correct rotation of the 

compressor. If rotation is incorrect the 

compressor will not pump, be noisy, and 

will draw minimal current. To correct 

motor rotation, change the phasing at 

the main power terminal. 

3.  Check the supply voltage.

4.  Measure the current draw on the 

compressor motor and on each fan 

motor. Check all readings against the 

specified values - particularly the indoor 

fan amps if the unit is installed in a free 

blow application.

Compressor

The compressor is directional scroll 

type. The compressor lubricant is polyol 

ester oil (POE). Note, this oil absorbs 

moisture quickly if exposed to open air. On 

commissioning, the compressor must be 

checked for correct rotation (refer Start Up 

Procedure).  

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Electrical work must be done by a qualified 

electrician. The outdoor unit must be wired 

directly from a distribution board by means 

of a circuit breaker and a mains isolator 

provided - preferably close to the unit.
Standard units are suitable for use with 

thermostats with either manual Heat/Cool 

selection or automatic changeover subject 

to the contact ratings of the thermostats. 
To connect alternative thermostats (non-

communicating contact switching types), 

refer figure 2 for wiring diagram.
A 24 hour power supply to the crankcase 

heaters is required, otherwise the warranty 

is void.

INDOOR FAN SPEED

The Indoor fan can be switched ON through 

the thermostat by selecting High, Medium 

or Low fan speed, or via BMS. This can be 

done without starting the compressor.

1.  Check the operation of the indoor fan for 

noise and vibration.

2.  Check if the High speed airflow is to 

specification.  

3.  Check if the Low speed is sufficiently 

low yet without risk of frost on the indoor 

coil.

4.  Refer wiring diagram for the factory 

default setting of the maximum fan 

speed and the fan speed range High – 

Low.

5.  If either High speed or Low speed need 

adjusting, use the UC7 Controller board 

to adjust the indoor fan speed:-

i.  Ensure the compressor is off and the 

thermostat or BMS does not request 

for the compressor to start.

ii. Press and hold down the SW3 push 

button on the UC7 circuit board until 

the display shows the letter 'H', then 

release the push button.

iii. The indoor fan will start and run at the 

'High' speed setting (factory default 

setting is 7.5V). The display will show 

the value ('7.5') and the indoor fan will 

run at the selected speed.

iv. Each following press on the SW3 

push button increases the indoor fan 

control voltage in steps of 0.5V, up 

to a maximum of 10.0V. Pressing the 

push button again when value 10.0 is 

GENERAL

This OPA 116 unit must be installed in 

accordance with all national and local safety 

codes.

OPTION (Field Fitted)

TZT-100 Room Temperature Controller

INSTALLATION
Positioning

Refer to dimension diagram for minimum 

clearances. If multiple units are to be placed 

side-by-side then allow at least 2 m between 

coil faces.
Mounting

Fasten the unit down to a firm flat horizontal 

base using the four holes provided in the 

mounting rails.
When the unit is being installed on a roof 

it is recommended that the unit is installed 

on a substantial structure with with anti-

vibration mounts or pads beneath the unit. 
Flexible duct connections are recommended 

between the supply and return ducts and 

the unit.

Condensate Drain

The condensate drain should be 'U' trapped 

outside the unit. The trap should have a 

vertical height of at least 50 mm. The drain 

should have a slope of at least 1 in 50 and 

must not be piped to a level above the unit 

drain pipe.
For long condensate pipe runs, fit a vent 

pipe near the drain trap. The top of the vent 

pipe must be at least 100 mm above the 
OPA unit's drain tray. 

REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
General

The refrigeration system has been charged 

with R410A refrigerant; refer wiring diagram 

specification table for amount. Tapping 

points are provided to measure discharge 

and suction operating pressures. Beware of 

high system pressures; use correct guages.
