Installation Instructions
Before Installing
Check unit for damage. Air conditioners are inspected
at the factory. If any damage has occurred, save the
packaging and file a claim with the delivering carrier
within fifteen working days. TOPAZ requires minimal
installation. Plug unit in proper NEMA receptacle, and
it begins to cool immediately.
Electrical Supply
Determine the proper power by checking unit’s rating
plate. Refer to the Specifications section on page 3 for
voltage and fuse requirements. Use wall outlets and
receptacles found in the table below.
Operating unit on improper voltages voids the warranty.
Note: Extension cords may be used if rated at a
minimum 120-V, 20-amp for models TZ-12AB
and TZ-18AB or 230-V, 20-amp for model TZ-
24AB, or 230-V, 30-amp for model TZ-36AB.
Extension cords can not be used with the TZ-
60AB or TZ-60A4B. Extension cords must be
fitted with the appropriate grounding-type
attachment plug. Use 25-ft maximum length
extension.
TZ-60AB4 — 3 Phase Wiring Instructions
The rotation of a three-phase AC motor/compressor
depends on the phase sequence of the incoming power
supply. Reversing any two of the three power supply
leads will reverse the rotation of the motor/compressor.
Improper rotation of the motor/compressor can lead to
damage of the equipment.
Unit Operation
Fan
1. Place unit on level surface.
2. Plug unit in.
3. Press the COOL/FAN on switch for continuous fan
operation. The cooling circuit will cycle on and off.
Press the COOL/FAN AUTO switch for cycling the
fan operating on and off with the cooling circuit.
Cooling Cycle
1. Set the desired temperature by adjusting the
WARMER-COOLER dial from 68º-115º
Note: Wait 4 minutes between turning cooling mode
off and on.
Preventative Maintenance
TOPAZ provides maximum performance and reliability
with minimum maintenance. The refrigeration and
electrical circuits of the system should be serviced by
qualified technicians only. To prolong the life of the
unit, perform regular maintenance as described below.
Blower Motors
The blower motor has permanently lubricated ball
bearings and require no relubrication. Inspect fan for
buildup of dirt on blades. Clean as needed.
Filters
A clogged filter causes the unit to operate at reduced
efficiencies. Inspect filter every six weeks, or more, if
operating in a dirty environment. The evaporator’s
washable-aluminum filter is located behind the return-
air grille, and can be easily removed by pulling out the
grille, opening the return-air grille and slowly lift
towards hinge.
The condenser’s washable aluminum filter is located in
the lower back of the unit. Remove by releasing the
retaining clip and pull out. Wash filters periodically by
placing them in a dishwasher, or soak in a solution of
warm water and detergent for ten minutes. Rinse clean
with hot water, shaking excess moisture from filter to dry.
Coil Cleaning
Evaporator and condenser coils can be cleaned using
compressed air.
